yes- everyone has faults and makes mistakes; an organization even more so.. yet, you ignore all the fingers pointing at you.. many here have no faith.

many here go to churches who lie about everything biblical; look at x-mas!.

but at least we know god and christ and try to live up to their name!.

No, Caupon- they have never , say, made their own prophecy about Saddam Hussein, as the churches did.

Finkle: Jesus commanded all his followers to preach. (Matt 28)

Eden- He COULD have used them; they gave Mary and Joseph valuable gifts in token to the boyt who would be the Messiah. BUT, he didn't send the star.

The criteria to determine whether a book is true or not is simple; does it make ANY sense? Is there any nonsense in it? Is it in harmony with the messages of the books KNOWN to be inspired? etc

I think you're wrong.

They have never made up there own prophecies- just screw up what God's mean.

AND I think they really feel they HAVE been "chosen" as a FDS CLASS.

I NEVER bring out that opinion- and always CALL it an opinion.

The REAL Good News (contrasted with Churchianity's) is about the Kingdom. Christ as King- and trhe changes he will bring. Hew foretold his followers would be preaching it to the world in the last days.

We DO- but sprinkle it with (sigh) "Jesus has been ruling for 100 years"!

It's tragilarious!

Magnum: "everyone has faults and makes mistakes; an organization even MORE so"

Where did you get that "fact"? I disagree. Why would an organization "even MORE so" have faults and make mistakes? I would think an organization would have fewer faults and make fewer mistakes because organizations have checks and balances to prevent such, whereas individuals don't.

>> Let's say in some 'ortganization' I have 20 faults, you have 5, and another 10, etc.

The org would have a sum total of ALL the faults.

14

Churches: Praise the LORD! ---- JWs: Praise the Org!

by DocHouse in

sad but true; i've yet to be at a meeting where the org/ 'fds' isn't praised....

DocHouse

Sounds like you are playing Jesus, Finkle....

Eden: "You can start by answering this: Who decided what books would be considered "canonical", when, and why? What were the criteria used? This should get you started."

My OPINION is that God USED the RCC to help preserve the scriptures- even tho they also helped preserve some counterfeit books. In the meantime, copies were being made in other lands, too.
