all things are made of the same materials etc so humans will always be fused with the universe in life and death because those building blocks are eternal.
He can be observed but not quantified physically because God is too big to measure. We onyl have to look within to observe God he is in you
He's inhabiting my body? You can observe him in my body? Yet he's too big to be quantified physically? Are you saying I'm fat?

He cannot be measured in dimension,time,size,weight etce tc
So he CANNOT be observed and quantified scientifically after all! LOL.

God is the universe he exists inverything because eveerything made is made up of the same materials atoms which are compressed energy and energy if light and light is eternal andthat light is God.
Um, that's pantheism - not biblical Christianity, seekchristonly.

I don't get it. How can God, a non-physical, immaterial, spirit being (according to the Bible) and outside the scope of 'science' (defined as ' the systematic study of the structure and behaviour of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment'), be proven scientifically? You might as well be claiming science can prove how many angels can dance on the head of a pin. It's a non-starter.
this week's study april 15th 2014 was called "do you see the one who is invisible?".
it was perhaps one of the most depressing, controlling, fear-mongering, stress inducing, doctrinally incorrect, hate-inspiring, judgemental, cult-like, irrational, hyped-up, critical, crazy, stretched out, fanciful, illogical, burdensome, inflated, coersive, manipulative, and brain-snappingly weird stuff i have read for some time.... (but i'm sure it was just a rehash and repeat of previous stuff...for the new masses....).
i had to keep up a sane appearance while in the hall, and even answer some garbage while this was being 'studied'... my cognitive disonance must be so strong now, because i found this one of the hardest ones to endure....now that i am home, i have poured a stiff drink and am trying to clear my head...... one paragraph was classic:.
when I gave answers that were not straight from the paragraph months ago in a study, I got told off for "soapboxing my own thoughts". All I said though was the same stuff from the paragraph but in a different way!
Tsk, tsk to the person who told you off. They are not in line with theocratic direction.
*** jl lesson 9 How Can We Best Prepare for the Meetings? ***
When you can answer the question, underline or highlight a few key words or phrases in the paragraph that will bring the answer back to your mind. Then, at the meeting, you can raise your hand if you wish and make a brief comment in your own words.

*** w03 9/1 p. 21 Praise Jehovah “in the Middle of the Congregation” ***
Learn to answer in your own words. Reading a comment from the study material may indicate that you have found the right answer, and it may be a good way to get started commenting. But progressing to answer in your own words shows that you understand the point. Our publications need not be quoted verbatim. Jehovah’s Witnesses do not simply repeat what their publications say.
.
*** be p. 70 par. 2 Know How You Ought to Answer ***
Learn to comment in your own words rather than reading directly from the paragraph. Do not become disturbed if a comment you make does not come out exactly right. That happens occasionally to everyone who comments.

... God can then take them into the new covenant with the prospect of their becoming heavenly king-priests! As their Mediator, Jesus assists them in maintaining a clean standing before God.—Heb. 2:16.
14 What about those who are not in the new covenant, those who hope to live forever on earth, not in heaven? While not participants in the new covenant, these are beneficiaries of it. They receive forgiveness of their sins and are declared righteous as God’s friends. (Jas. 2:23; 1 John 2:1, 2) Whether we have a heavenly hope or an earthly hope, each one of us has good reason to appreciate Jesus’ role as the Mediator of the new covenant.

● Is Jesus the “mediator” only for anointed Christians?... At a time when God was selecting those to be taken into that new covenant, the apostle Paul wrote that Christ was the “one mediator between God and men.” (1 Tim. 2:5) Reasonably Paul was here using the word “mediator” in the same way he did the other five times, which occurred before the writing of 1 Timothy 2:5, referring to those then being taken into the new covenant for which Christ is “mediator.” So in this strict Biblical sense Jesus is the “mediator” only for anointed Christians.
This view was reaffirmed 10 years later:
*** w89 8/15 p. 30-1 Questions From Readers ***
□ Is Jesus the Mediator only for spirit-anointed Christians or for all mankind, since 1 Timothy 2:5, 6 speaks of him as the “mediator” who “gave himself a corresponding ransom for all”?
... The people of all nations who have the hope of everlasting life on earth benefiteven now from Jesus’ services. Though he is not their legal Mediator, for they are not in the new covenant, he is their means of approaching Jehovah. Christ said: “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6) All who will gain life on earth must direct their prayers to Jehovah through Jesus. (John 14:13, 23, 24) Jesus also serves as a compassionate High Priest who is able to apply in their behalf the benefits of his sacrifice, allowing them to gain forgiveness and eventual salvation.—Acts 4:12; Hebrews 4:15.
Consequently, 1 Timothy 2:5, 6 is not using “mediator” in the broad sense common in many languages. It is not saying that Jesus is a mediator between God and all mankind. Rather, it refers to Christ as legal Mediator (or, “attorney”) of the new covenant, this being the restricted way in which the Bible uses the term.
so, one hot beautiful (not a cloud in the sky) kind of summer day, there was an elder who decided to re shingle his house.
this was on the book study day.
he started early and got all the shingles off of the roof in time for the book study that night.
Two, no, three things surprise me about this story.
1. It's not in the Yearbook.
2. Jehovah didn't save his house even though the guy put 'kingdom interests' first.
3.There's no epilogue about how his damaged house proved to be a blessing in disguise because now he has a bigger and better house and all his children are special pioneers because of his example of faith and sacrifice.
LOL. She had it coming.
the only way i can sit through the meetings is due to having my tablet and connection to this forum!.
since awakening, i can't believe how much i cringe each and every meeting when i hear all the propaganda and garbage spewed out from the bible and the society!.
i only cope by venting on here.. (plus it is so easy when sitting at the back of the hall or on the sound control box... hahaha).
This place has helped keep me sane too.
