Monotheists my ass!!!
by Crazyguy inwe have been taught that the hebrews were monotheists believing and worshiping in only one god, except for those times when they sinned and worship pagan idol gods.
their one true god is yahweh / jehovah.
comparing the book of genesis with older sumerian and babylonian writings what do we find?

dear Cold Steel...
you said, " Keep in mind that the early Christians associated Jesus with Yahweh. It was Yahweh who was a son of El. The early Christians saw Yahweh as the mediator between the Farther God and man"...
actually...
Jesus is associated with Yahweh in the scriptures because in the NT Jesus spoke as a Son to the Father. That is what the NT faith portrays as far as relationship goes. Unfortunately for mormon theology the beloved only begotten Son is all over the NT and a pantheon of gods isn't.
Yes! In the OT ([deuteronomy 32:8-9]) there are scriptures that vaguely hint at that (divine council in danel) but, those scriptures were written while the hebrews were still contextualizing their personal encounter with God. JESUS was the final revelation of God...you can begin at the end and work yourself backwards to a ANE pantheon but theologically you end up with a low christiology and elevation of angels/man...the hebrews/israelites continued to look forward.
do you want to sanctify God (so that He will save mankind) or mormon theology?

I LOVE Christmas lights but I'm waiting until after November 11 to put them up and enjoy them.
I remember the sacrifice made by many in the commitment to serve their fellow man.(whether a person agrees with it or not, people sacrificed on our behalf)
love michelle
if anyone is interested in going way over board into crazy land about Christmas lights talk to WTWizard...love you D. :)

It has to be understood that a christian "lives" in two realms. The kingdom in heaven and on the earth.
satan deceives on earth in the "realm" of ideas/ideologies and his angels reward those who "buy and sell" in the doctrines of demons. he has had sustained influence of "the air" since Jesus returned to heaven with extra attention directed to the church especially in these last days in order to cause deep division...to weaken "the body". (matthew 24:10-12)
his power of influence will be thrown to the earth, so to speak, when the absolute power, wisdom and salvation of God is revealed to/in the hearts and minds of the VERY elect...the 144,000 missionaries commissioned to gather in new jewish believers.

Scared of Armageddon?
by naja inin the light of the following promises made by jehovah, how can there be an armageddon?.
genesis 8:21: ... so jehovah said in his heart: never again will i cursethe groundon mans account, for the inclination of the heart of man is bad from his youth up;and never again will i strike down every living thing as i have done.. genesis 9:15, 16: and i will certainly remember my covenant that i made between me and you and every living creature of every kind;and never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all flesh.and the rainbow will occur in the cloud, and i will certainly see it and remember the everlasting covenant between god and every living creature of every kindon the earth.. does it make sense to say "i will never kill you by a flood, next time i will use fire?
just asking.. .

The fire from God destroys or dissolves "the elements" of the world/society that aren't in union with His kingdom.
The 5 elements of the world:
POLITICAL: A MONOPOLY ON THE USE OF FORCE/VIOLENCE TO MAINTAIN ORDER. ECONOMIC: PROVIDING FOR THE NECESSITIES OF LIFE AND OTHER HUMAN WANTS.
SOCIAL: PERTAINING TO CUSTOMS, EDUCATION, AND GROUPINGS.
RELIGIOUS: SYSTEMS OF BELIEF THAT DEAL WITH QUESTIONS OF EXISTENCE.
ARTISTIC/INTELLECTUAL: DEALS WITH TRUTH, GOODNESS, AND BEAUTY.
If I remember correctly, according to the bible the only "giant mess" that awaits clean up is weapons. love michelle

WHY are Watchtower leaders OBSCURANTIST and how can we fight them effectively?
by Terry into read and understand this topic you will need to know two things.. following my telling you these two things you'll need to sit and think about them before you react and respond.. ************.
1. understand what obscurantists are and what they do and why .. 2. decide if want to be effective in refraiming your identity (the label given to you) as an ex-jehovah's witness in fighting them.
watchtower society obscurantist leaders.

"Doublespeak is language that deliberately disguises, distorts, or reverses the ACTUAL meaning of words in everyday society."
As a "society distinct from secularisim...The WTBTS is a willing victim and proponent of this doublespeak. It isn't exclusive to the WTBTS but from the beginning of that sect their "water" was tainted. Revelation 8:10-11

I collect vintage perfume and vintage commercial perfume bottles. I also collect vintage dinnerware (the beautiful bright flowery kind) for eventual use in my homebased business. I'll be renting out miss-matched china for special events as soon as I have service for 200. I have service for 170 now so some time early next year I hope to have a webpage and be up and running. I'm pretty excited about it and can hardly wait for my friend to help me with my webpage...I have to do a bunch of different tablescapes and take a ton of pictures before we start on that :)

Many are leaving the historical christian faith without even realizing it. Maybe they've never read the NT or something but they sure delight in taking these people's word for what it says.
