the new mag doesn't proclaim itself as the Watchtower and it has no date on the front. I think it could get lost in the pile of newspapers and fliers at my house. Any thoughts on the new look?

New OM book: Trusting the faithful slave is full of loaded language
by truthseeker inwhy trust the faithful and discreet slave.
our trust in "the faithful slave" is also manifest when we support the organization with our material contributions.
three more keywords here: trust, manifest, material contributions.

do you want an end to this system, or do you want proof of god?
for myself, i am just broken hearted by the state of the world.

seven006 and Maxine Mouse,
I can see where there might be some confusion. Considering the fact that this thread went from, "the title" to where it is now, I guess I'll have to define my concepts. Let me say that in the course of this discussion, I have presumed to call all of God's people "christian". I should really stop doing that.... I tend to be pretty inclusive.

jeanniebeanz,
Pardon me.
anticipating comments, I would like to say that it has not escaped me that christians HAVE contributed to the oppression of mankind at different times, but it really remains to be seen if these were true christians. And aside from that, they will be held accountable.

jeanniebeanz,
Are you saying that christians have done nothing throughout history to alieviate the suffering and oppression in the world?To say that we have been sitting on our hands all these years is ridiculous. It is not hard to understand that as humans we can only do so much, also, it is not hard to understand that some ACCEPT this natural limitation and look to God to bring about this peace to mankind that we so desparately want and need.

GBL,
I don't know if you are asking me your question but....I think that Jesus is waiting for the generation being born right now before coming. Why? We are at a crossroads, children born to otherwise decent people are raised without the benefit of the knowledge of God. Parents, caregivers and authorities are outright "rejecting" God for them.
Jesus said, "Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 19:14
I believe Jesus will be coming very soon for the sake of our CHILDREN.
seven006,
The Lord's arrival will force people to be accountable for their past actions, good or bad. It is nothing like passing the buck, if that is what you are inferring.

seven006,
you said: They naturally think that it is everyone else who is causing the injustice.
It is hardly realistic to think that EVERYONE ELSE is causing the injustice when I can look at myself and see how easily I can be counted among the "everyone else". Sure I've never murdered or raped or starved anyone but I have caused my share of problems. It's about accountability. Some people feel they don't have to take any responsibitiy for their actions. It is because of these people that I say, "Come quickly, Lord Jesus.

mtbatoon,
When I say christian values I guess I am using it as a generic term for right thinking, I mean the base values that we place on human life and living that life in a dignified and honourable way, as opposed to the attitude, I do what I want if it pleases me, I don't care if I hurt anyone by word or deed.
