Uh, Friday? Farkel didn't use such words toward ME... and so committed no 'sin', error or offense against ME. In addition, profanity in and of itself is not a 'sin', and so what does his language, or my understanding of his need to USE it, have to do with my love of my Father or my Lord?

Ohhhhh, you are trying to invoke the 'law' against swearing, yes? Can't do that, Flyday... doesn't apply. Neither Farkel nor I uttered any 'oath', so neither of us 'swore'... on any in heaven OR on earth, including my Father or my Lord. Our 'yes' meant 'yes'... and our 'no'... meant 'no'.

Or perhaps you are thinking of the 'commandment' not to take up God's name 'in vain'. Again, you are in error, for God's name wasn't taken up at all... in any way. In vain, or otherwise. Now, YOUR name... well, that's another story. Although I didn't SEE it taken up in vain, I can imagine that many hear have done so in their hearts. And I completely understand it, the same as I would understand someone giving in to any OTHER weakness of the flesh, including drunkeness or adultery. For really, who am I to judge?

In truth, however, whether you realize it or not, Friday, the 'language' we use today will, in about 20 more years, be considered ordinary daily slang. Just as the slang of today was once considered obscene... and cursing. Example: 'golly' (formerly 'godly'); 'gee' (formerly 'geez', formerly 'Jeezus', formerly 'Jesus'); 'gay'... well, you know what that USED to mean and what it means now. How about 'sucks', as in 'that sucks'? I am SURE you know the origin of that one.

Do you know how 'ace boon coon' (best friend/buddy) came about? That originated from the days of slavery in the U.S., when the white massa had black women down in the 'boonies'... shantytown... and liked one in particular. In reality, she was his 'ace (number one) poon (do I really need to explain?) coon (again, do I need to explain?) from the 'boonies'. Ace boon poon coon. (NOTE: NO offense to ANY of my white brothers and sisters. Simply making a point, that's all. I have nothing but love for you, truthfully.)

Moving on...

May I ask you, O I-Am-So-Righteous-That-I-Even-Copied-And-Quoted-The-Very-Words-That-I-Am-PRETENDING-To-Find-Deplorable-But-Oh-My-I-Am-Still-So-Clean-While-All-Others-Are-Dirty-Friday-The-Hypocrite... are you 'without sin'? For if indeed you are, hey, cast your stone. Make your aim 'sure', however. 'Cause if you hit a wall, your 'stone' may well just richochet back... and pop you right in the eye. You know... the one with that RAFTER in it SO big that you couldn't see your fingers type the SAME words as did Farkel, which words you also USED and yet, now wish to appear as if you are still 'clean'?

And maybe you ARE clean, Friday... on the outside. But we KNOW what you are 'full of' on the inside, don't we? Okay, yeah, the words 'deadmen's bones' comes to mind... but I was really thinking of some other... er, 'stuff'.

Don't mess with me, Friday. It's Friday... and I'm tired and feeling a bit 'peaky'. I would have to ask for a whole LOT of holy spirit in order not to be 'myself'... and get 'medieval' your hiney.

(Sorry, can't bid you peace... and 'you know' why...)

Dearest Farkel (and you know I wish you true love and peace...)

Oy vey! Such a POTTY-MOUTH - LOL!! I know, I know... in some instances and with some people, only 'potty-mouth' will do, yes? LOL! (I cannot tell you how many times I've held my tongue - talk about drinkin' blood!) Some folks can just bring out the WORST in us all, can't they?

Dearest Roaming... may you have peace!

Uh, PLEASE don't associate my Father's name (JAH) with the WTBTS. THEIR 'god'... is "Jehovah"... the misrendered name UNDER which they commit their heinous acts of hypocrisy, cowardice and oppression and which name they have heaped a PILE of... uh, 'reproach' UPON.

The TRUE God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, is my Father and the Father of my Lord, the Most Holy One of Israel... JAH OF ARMIES.

Peace to you both!

i have grieved over many deaths in my short life, but now i am grieving over what i once believed.

i'm past the anger now, so here comes the denial, and then the guilt.

does anybody have one of those "men in black" memory eraser pen flashing dealies?

Actually, 'Looking... there IS a 'Light!

All you need DO... is LOOK at him... and do NOT take your gaze away. It's not easy... but it is well worth it.

I bid you the greatest of peace... and hope you find 'comfort'... for it is not 'far-off' from any one of us. All you need do... is ASK... and 'receive'.

The Father's Name

by realcourchesne in

hi, i'm new to this forum; im not a jehovah witness and was reading a book called you can live forever in paradise on earth.

in chapter 22, page 185, when teaching the importance of knowing the name of the father (jehovah), the watchtower bible and tract society says: in fact, knowing that name is necessary for salvation, as the bible says.

romans 10: 13,14. my question is: if knowing that the father's name (jehovah) is necessary for salvation; why even in their bible the new world translation, would jesus used the terms "my father," "our father," and "the father" when teaching about and praying to his father?.

AGuest

Excellent question, 'Real... and may you have peace!

Actually, there is a VERY simple... and TRUTHFUL... explanation for that: Jehovah's Witness cannot CALL God 'our Father', for He is NOT their father; for they are NOT 'sons'. Truthfully, as far as THEY are concerned, only about 8,000 of them are 'sons of God'. Thus, if they called Him "Father", that would mean that they, too, were 'sons'. And if they, too, were 'sons', they would be in the New Covenant. And if they were in the New Covenant... THEY WOULD HAVE TO EAT AND DRINK THE FLESH AND BLOOD OF MY LORD. Yes?

And if they called themselves 'sons', that would mean they were BEGOTTEN... and ADOPTED... by holy spirit. And THAT would make them 'anointed'. However, they do not believe that the 'great crowd' are also SONS... anointed by God's holy spirit through Christ and thus, part of 'Israel'. Although it is.

As a side point, they also call Him "Jehovah", for that is the erroneous name He has allowed them to know and use. Why? Because NO reproach can be brought upon His most 'beauteous' name... and JW's... in fact the entire WTBTS conglomerate... bring reproach all the time. Can you imagine what folks think of "Jehovah" because of them?

But, in fact and in TRUTH... my Father's name is JAH. And His Son, my Lord, is named JAH-ESHUA (JAH saves), and is the MISHCHAJAH (messiah or 'chosen of JAH'), the one who 'comes in the name of JAH.

Psalm 68:4

The term "Jehovah" is an incorrect rendering of the letters YHWH (Hebrew) or JHVH (English). Many years ago, scholars ASSUMED the name to have three syllables and put an 'e', 'o' and 'a' where there were no vowels. However, the CORRECT rendering is YaHWeH (Hebrew) or JaHVeH... BOTH of which are correctly pronounced "Jah-VEH" (in Hebrew, a "y" SOUNDS like a "v"). And the name translates into "JAH (Yah) exhales" or "JAH (Yah) breathes" and means "JAH breathes into existence" or "JAH breathes and it comes to be."

My Lord's name is pronounced in Hebrew "YahShua" or "Yah-e-Shua"... and in English "Joshua" (only j's are sound like y's and so it is 'Yoshua')

There are other names and words that contain my Father's name as well:

Elijah, which is correctly pronounced EE-lee-yah, and means God (El) is (i) JAH (jah).

Joel, which is correctly pronounced Yah-El, and means JAH... is God (El).

Hallelujah, which is correctly pronounced ah-lay-loo-yah, and means praise (the 'h' is silent and so the first part of the word is correctly pronounced 'allelu') JAH, you people. Praise JAH, you people. Allelujah... or hallelujah. Hallel... or allel... is praise... lu... is you (plural)... and Jah.

I hope this helps you understand a few things more clearly, 'Real.

I'm So Ashamed.

by Englishman in

jw
friends

i am ashamed to admit this, but last week it suddenly became apparent to me that i have been unconsciously following a most despicable witness trait.. i have been disfellowshipping people!.

let me explain.

in about 5 weeks time i shall be holding my birthday barbecue - apostates welcome!

AGuest

Dearest Englishman... may you have peace... and may I say...

YESSS!!!! (US arm 'pumping' motion thing-y!)

THAT is the 'law' of the Christ... being about 'setting matters straight'... quickly! Forgiving and RELEASING... and not 'binding' one another again!

You have accomplished one of THE most difficult things it is in human nature to do... not just to forgive (we do that all the time)... but 'setting [the] matter STRAIGHT'. Being the one to 'offer the peace pipe'.

I know that you most probably don't care what my feelings on the matter are, but... I AM SOOOOOO PROUD OF YOU! Don't you feel GREAT?! Whatever 'barriers' existed that prevented you from LOVING these people... have been removed! Nothing standing 'between' you and them now... no broken rake, no difference of opinion/view, no past relationship and its pain... nothing!

That is how it is with my Lord. That is why my Father has said to us and INVITED us... "Come, now, you people... and let us SET MATTERS STRAIGHT BETWEEN US."

Isaiah 1:18
Micah 4:3

The same thing you did with those folks, E-Man? You can do with God and Christ. You can go in your private room, enter 'before the throne of God (through Christ, though), and 'set matters straight'. Confess what wrong YOU have done, and ask forgiveness... AND tell Him what it is that YOU hold 'against' Him... and 'set it straight'.

Psalm 4:4

THAT is the beginning... of coming to 'know' God and Christ... and being KNOWN... by them.

I bid you the GREATEST of peace, dear E-Man... and pray that, if you 'wish' it, the undeserved kindess and mercy of my God and Father JAH of Armies, comes to be upon you... you AND your entire household... to time indefinite!

H2O update

by TheHighPriest in

jw
friends

oh, man!

i just had to bring this one to everyones attention.. i pressume that this is rick going off.. .

bronze member .

AGuest

Will somebody do me a favor? Perhaps, you, JanG, since you're 'in like Flynn' with Rick, et al...

Tell them, please, that personally, FOR ME... the removal the FPP is 'a day late... and a dollar short'. I offer as an explanation (though I really don't have to, but in all kindness, fairness... and peace...), the fact that this comes AFTER Rick personally invited me back, did not TELL anyone that he did (there was no 'cc' on the email to me), did not clarify to me that my return was limited, allowed me to be heckled and my post deleted, did not even BOTHER to speak up until when called to task on his invitation, and then COWARDLY... ALTERED the intent as implicated and indicated to me therein, then does NOT respond to the question of why the post was deleted and not simply moved (uh, since I WAS invited back afterall, but to, an, er, 'unmoderated' forum, where such post COULD have moved, as where the others connected to it...), allowed his 'henchman' moderator to state his/her absolutely asinine reason for not doing so (I had again violated the "FPP", which, uh, now is supposed to be gone?) and STILL made NO reply... except what has been posted above.

Rick is a COWARD and HYPOCRITE, and is playing his usual WTBTS 'game':

"We didn't SAY the system would end in 1975..." (We didn't say H20 wouldn't suffer...)

"We're NOT inspired, and so from time to time rely on 'tacking'..." (uh, what happened to CHRIST 'guiding' his precious little forum?)

"We've received NEW LIGHT on the matter..." (We've LEARNED some things... in particular, that it's all YOUR GUY'S fault...)

"It's EVERYONE (else's) fault: it's the women, it's our wives, it's the kids, it's the head of household, it's the congregation, it's new ones who don't understand, it's the governments, it's 'christendom', it's the 'world'... it's EVERYBODY... BUT US (WTBTS/H20 Administration..."

"We're SO good, everybody LOVES us... we're SO good, everybody HATES us..." (but that's NOT a contradiction!)

H20 was TOLD its 'demise'... not only by servants of the Holy One of Israel, but by those who simply had 'eyes' to see and 'ears' to hear... that what goes around... MUST come around. Those who knew... and tried to TELL the Almighty I-Know-How-To-Run-An-OPEN-Forum-So-Don't-Tell-ME-What-To-Do-Because-I-Have-My-Governing-Bod-Uh-Moderators-To-Conspire-Uh-Confer-With-And-WE-Will-Decide-What-YOU-Can-And-Cannot-Do-In-OUR-Organization-That-YOU-Took-A-Vow-Uh-Agreed-With-The-FPP-To-Follow Rick... what was inevitable:

From Egypt and before, to the fall of Jerusalem... to the WTBTS and its scramble to stay afloat membership-wise now... people like Rick, et al., just don't GET that YOU CAN'T TREAT PEOPLE LIKE GARBAGE AND INFERIORS... AND SURVIVE! People... will LEAVE!

I am a Black woman, Rick. A lot of folks didn't just sit around in slavery and TAKE it; SOME, gave their very LIVES in an attempt to escape oppression. What do you think people who have the FREEDOM to just walk away from it will do?

Unfortunately, by his post, it is obvious that Rick will NOT take lesson in HUMILITY... and LEARN from the mistake. No, like Pharaoh, Babylon the Great, the WTBTS, et al., he will instead say, "I sit a queen. Nothing can happen to [me/H20]." His heart will be obstinate, just as Pharaoh's was and as those who 'run' the WTBTS have, to their own humility.

For indeed, he who HUMBLES himself, will be exalted; but he who EXALTS himself... WILL be humbled. Rather than having to be RIGHT... as a self-professed member of the Body of Christ who STATED that Christ was 'guiding' that Board, Rick SHOULD have 'sought peace'... and offered himself and the Board as 'servants'. For that is the OBLIGATION of a 'christian'.

Instead, he will do as the WTBTS does and has done: when things go bad for others, God is PUNISHING them. When things for bad for them... they are being 'persecuted'. But... it's NEVER them and their actions; they are NEVER 'reaping' what they 'sowed'.

Jiminy, Rick... you've had PLENTY of time. GET A CLUE! Don't take my statement as anger and/or animosity, for it is neither. It is simply zealous and emphatic TRUTH... which, out of your own obstinance, you just REFUSE to 'see'... and 'hear'.

My peace remains, but my Lords knows I have to ASK for the 'fruit' of the spirit that is peace... and long-suffering... for I do not possess it in and of myself in this instance.

Hey, if you 'know' something the rest of us don't... and where there might be a bit of substantiation... please... share it! I am going on what I heard from my Lord, which was also reported by Matthew to have been stated to him also by my Lord, and corroborated by Paul(?). But, hey, who's perfect, eh?

Peace to you, Idjit!

No, dear... Revelation 19:1 speaks of the sound of a 'great crowd' in heaven... because at the time John SAW them... the 'great crowd' WERE in heaven. John SAW them... standing BEFORE the throne of God (where's God's throne, dear one?), rendering SACRED SERVICE (only priests can render 'sacred' service)... in the TEMPLE (what... or rather WHO is the temple? And these ones were rendering service IN that temple...)

Revelation 7:9, 15
Revelation 21:22

The 'great crowd' are part of the 'nation of kings and priests', that render sacred service before the throne of God, Idjit, in HIS Most Holy... or temple sanctuary... which is being to come before His very face.

Revelation 5: 9, 10

Uh, I don't know how much 'simpler' it can get. Unless, of course, you are looking to hear what you WANT to hear... and a simple explanation of THAT... rather than what is truth.

Does God Make Mistakes?

by Undecided in

jw
friends

i was thinking about some of the comments in the bible where god had regrets.

gen. 6:6 does this mean he felt it was a mistake to make humans?.

when he decreed that nineveh would be destroyed and then changed his mind after they repented, would it have been a mistake if he had destroyed them before they had time to repent?.

AGuest

Dear JJ... may you have peace!

I find you post 'intriguing. Why? Because my Lord revealed to me some time ago (and yes, I posted it on H20), that Joseph had actually wrote the book of Genesis... while in prison in Egypt. Just as JAH revealed to him the meaning of his dreams, the baker and cupbearer's and Pharaoh's, so, too, JAH gave him this, by means of holy spirit through Christ... and told him to 'write'.

Joseph was a METICULUS recordkeeper, as seen by his ability to manage Pharaoh's grain... for FOURTEEN years - seven 'plenty' years during which he oversaw the harvest and storing it, and seven years of properly distributing it, so that NO ONE starved during the famine.

Hello, GK! and may you have peace!

Before you truly 'buy' what you just posted, may I direct you to Matthew 24:29-31?

Verse 29 says, "Immediately AFTER the tribution..." and verse 31 says, "...And he will send his angels... and they will gather his chosen ones..."

This actually corresponds with what Paul(?) recounted at 1 Thessalonians 4:15-18, which illustrates how, when my Lord arrives, those who 'belonged' to him 'during his presence' and DIED 'in union' with him, will be resurrected at the same time that those who 'belonged' to him 'during his presence' and were 'in union' but did NOT die... are changed... in an instant.

1 Corinthians 15:20-23, 51, 52

And then, the 'end', when he hands the kingdom BACK over to our Father... for THE Judgment, which takes place when the 1,000 years 'have ended', the REST of the dead are raised up.

1 Corinthians 15:24
Revelation 20:4-6, 7, 11-15

I am not trying to offend or 'prove' you wrong... I am simply pointing out truth.

Again, I bid you peace... and remain...
