Making 607 crumble

by ellderwho in

during my eight month long study with "elder bob" (moms husband) we have batted around many subjects to say the least.

but the one that really stands out is the dreaded date of 607 bc.

im sorry i just will not let up with this date, and him having to prove it can stand.

Yes it would be good stuff for an elder to read, but getting them to do so would be quite a feat in and of itself.

Were Most Of The Elders "On The Ball" In Your Congregation?

by minimus in

jw
friends

i think most of the elders relied on the "smart ones" to help them out.

my experience was that there was probably 2 or 3 "sharp ones".

the rest were dopey!

No, most of them were slackers except and one and he has a pioneering complex. Save the world but forget the congregation and totally afraid of his own shadow.

How did all the animals fit on Noah's Ark?

by hooberus in

.

many skeptics assert that the bible must be wrong, because they claim that the ark could not possibly have carried all the different types of animals.

If God can send an angel to kill 185,000 assyrians in one night, why bother to kill all the animals that were not in the ark? The certainly didnt deserve to be drowned did they?

Evidence that populations descended from the 16 grandsons of Noah

by hooberus in

.

secular history gives much evidence to show that the survivors of noah?s flood were real historical figures, whose names were indelibly carved on much of the ancient world ?

The concept of one ancestor violates the fundamental principles of a random process in relation to genetics and mathematic probabilities. For evolution to be true it is required that there be so many different base strands of DNA that we must be able to accurately place every organism on Earth into a specific genetic family and not be able to move species around the way evolutionists do today

HUH???

Anyone here ever been homeless?

by maybesbabies in

i am curious, our family was homeless on and off for several years.

i am trying to communicate to my little brother that growing up this way does not preclude one from a normal life.

is anyone willing to share a story that i can pass on to him??

Quote from the above link below.

"During the 8th and 7th centuries BCE Jerusalem enjoyed a period of prosperity. Parts of prominent structures have been uncovered, attesting to this as well as to the intensity of the Babylonian destruction in 587-6 BCE."
