  Well let's see,
  Isaiah 11:6The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child will lead them.  Isaiah 35:9 No lion will be there,
      nor any ravenous beast;
      they will not be found there.   Isaiah 65:25The wolf and the lamb will feed together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox, and dust will be the serpent’s food. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain,” says the Lord.

  Gnostic Bishop, take a look at this document you'll find a lot of information there.

  Click on the title and it will take you to the table of contents. It's cumbersome to maneuver in but it has a lot of information about people like this.

  Pope thinks hitting children is "Beautiful"

  2. beliefs

  one time, i heard a father in a meeting with married couples say `i sometimes have to smack my children a bit, but never in the face so as to not humiliate them.how beautiful!

  he knows the sense of dignity!

  he has to punish them but does it justly and moves on.

  The Iraqi Problem - an Overview and Solution

  by Village Idiot in

  1. social
  2. current

  much has been said about muslims and iraq but little historical information has been given to understand the context.

  context is important in understanding anything especially with regards to conflicts.

  islam and the conflict in iraq requires knowledge of at least four different parties with a general understanding of their ideology.. islam was founded around 622 c.e.

  @LUHE:  "...so, where would they live? Who would have them?"

  They would basically live where they were until their dislocation. The Yazidis, as I mentioned, are ethnic Kurds so they would live in 'Kurdistan'. The Christians, to my knowledge live mostly in northern Iraq In, I believe, in mostly Kurdish territory. I don't think, though I'm not sure, that the Kurds would persecute them. Christians and Yazidis were mostly left alone until ISIS came along.

  @LUHE: "What about the Iraqi Christians and Yezidi?"

  Christians number about 1.5 million in Iraq. Yazidis number about 500,000 - 700,000. Arming and guiding them with backup support should be helpful in reclaiming their own territory. I don't think that a sovereign state would be necessary for either one. The Yazidi are ethnic Kurds.

  @LUHE: "Boots on the ground? I'm not so sure."

  The Kurds are few in number and don't have the manpower to do everything that is necessary to choke of ISIS including guarding those oil fields which give them 1-3 million dollars a day worth of funding. A relatively large number of troops would also be needed, temporarily, to guard the borders through which ISIS smuggle supplies in and sell oil out. 

  We would only have to be there for less than a year as they mop up the last remnants of ISIS.

  End Times

  anyone else ever wonder about the claim that the world governments would turn on all religions except the wts?

  until later when they are singled out?

  what would be the separator?

  I remember that the teaching, in the 1970s, went something like this. 

  • The UN would turn against Babylon the Great (all religions).
  • The Jehovah's Witnesses would be temporarily spared.
  • The UN would finally notice the JWs and turn on them.
  • Armageddon would be the culmination of the Great Tribulation as Jesus and company go to the rescue of the JWs before they get destroyed. 

   

  insidetheKH, you seem to be a true believer - am I correct?
