  Did judge Rutherford piss off Hitler

  by greenhornet in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  the jws at the time in germany where considered part of the aryan race, (since they were not jews).

  then things changed for the jws after rutherford mailed a letter to hitler bragging about jehovahs kingdom on earth.. so can we add this to the bloodshed that that the watchtower corp is responsible for?.

  Once again how do you resolve the presumptuous questions that are marred with inaccuracies.

  http://www.agsconsulting.com/articles/zionists.htm

  This site has misleading statements with no perception on what was going on in that region in the 1910’s, 1920’s 1930’s, 1940’s.

  http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/mcmahon.htm

  http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/balfour_declaration_of_1917.htm

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1920_Nebi_Musa_riots

  http://www.danielpipes.org/8025/the-year-the-arabs-discovered-palestine

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandatory_Palestine

  Etc. You cannot consider C.T. Russell’s motive much less that of Rutherford’s without researching ALL the tumultuous times they were in. You are only concentrating in Hitler’s regime and the similarities it had supposedly by the WTS. No such recorded influence exists. You’re undermining modern perception with yesterday’s events.

  How did Russell perceive the unjust way The Jewish people were having, did that make him a Zionist, NO. He was not calling for flight, money grabbing or criminal intent as you people like to believe. He understood their dilemma. he had firsthand knowledge how it felt to be mistreated, condemned by a bunch of unethical preachers, and governments that ultimately sent some of them to prison on a religious whim. You people seem to forget Bible Students, And Jehovah’s Witnesses have been front and center to prosecution, simply understand this site to find the meaning.

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/League_of_Nations

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/League_of_Nations_mandate

  http://www.mythsandfacts.org/conflict/mandate_for_palestine/mandate_for_palestine.htm

  So your representation of The Bible Students and Jehovah’s Witnesses would be false. Your presuming to

  know the intentions and mindset of people without complete research.

  Thus suggesting I have uniformity with religion. My theological consensus comes from understanding scripture. The value you place on man then becomes irrelevant. The suggestion of intermingling man with God is just disingenuous. Perhaps separating your thoughts would clarify the underline parable given by Jesus through Peter in 1 Peter 2:16. Thus coming in line with what is mentioned in 1 Peter 3:16-17. The inference is conduct.

  The headship then becomes complacent nothing more. So once again I disagree with your assessment. Salvation comes within. The messengers such as the GB or the POPE have no mystical powers to save your soul other than spiritually feeding their flocks, thus shifting the responsibility to us.

  How much sediment would have been moved in Noah's flood?

  by Zoos in

  2. bible

  i flew over this crate yesterday on my return home from las vegas.. .

  they say this crater was created by an asteroid about 50,000 years ago.

  then about 6000 years ago, presumably, god wiped out all life on earth with a global flood.. how much sediment would have been moved around during that flood.

  The assertion then is based on hypothetical. Archeology along with science would need a definitive answer to the point of origin. The same point of origin that eludes evolutionist. Given that conformity then becomes speculation.

  Flood question:

  How can any of us confirm that while the flood was accruing time and place meaning all living things just didn’t come to a standstill.

  How can any of us know while the flood was accruing sediment didn’t change the structure of the earth, and thus having bodies or organic material placed elsewhere.

  Evolution Question:

  How can any of us confirm with absolute certainty the carter is an impact crater verse an outward explosion crater? An explosion crater would answer some of the question of orbital plants within our solar system by which man has been confirming with possible life Bactria within our system.

  If man can answer these few simple questions, then man would be in a better position to absolute..

  When theology was introduced in to the classroom, they assumed wholeheartedly the concept of translation. However every religion including active witnesses here, lack one important component.

  Perhaps one day you will see with clarity the validity of scripture to many of your doubtful thoughts.

  Access definition:

  1.

  A means of approaching or entering a place.

  "The staircase gives access to the top floor"

  synonyms:

  entrance, entry, way in, means of entry; More approach, means of approach "the building has a side access"

  The right or opportunity to use or benefit from something.

  "Do you have access to a computer?"

  2.

  An attack or outburst of an emotion.

  "I was suddenly overcome with an access of rage"

  Control Definition:

  1.

  The power to influence or direct people's behavior or the course of events.

  "The whole operation is under the control of a production manager"

  synonyms:

  jurisdiction, sway, power, authority, command, dominance, government, mastery, leadership, rule, sovereignty, supremacy, ascendancy; More

  Was Daniel aware or was he made aware, and who came to their aid.

  King Nebachudnezzer

  Daniel 3:17

  17 We might be thrown into the blazing furnace. But the God we serve is able to bring us out of it alive. He will save us from your power. 18 But we want you to know this, Your Majesty. Even if we knew that our God wouldn’t save us, we still wouldn’t serve your gods. We wouldn’t worship the gold statue you set up.

  King Darius

  Daniel 6:16

  16 Then the king gave orders, and Daniel was brought in and cast into the lions' den. The king spoke and said to Daniel, "Your God whom you constantly serve will Himself deliver you." 17 A stone was brought and laid over the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the signet rings of his nobles, so that nothing would be changed in regard to Daniel.…

  I wonder what would be more painful. Being burned or mauled to death. Did Shadrach, Meshach, or Abednego come to Daniel’s aid? Who came to Daniel’s aid?

  Well anyways, I do disagree with some of the data presented on podcast. I did however find it entertaining. When I get these 2 books that elude me due to finances to confirm or deny my theory, I will ask the question again about 607BC. If I’ll be allowed that is. Thanks V.I. and truthseeker100 for your input.

  SIMON, first off, I am being very respectful of others opinions. I have in no way orchestrated or denounced anyone to get the negative response from this person FINKELSTEIN just so you understand the tone people say they don’t have.

  However continuing with my hypothetical.

  Weren’t the Babylonians using the solar-lunar calendar?

  It wasn’t until the Meton’s cycle came into play to adapt the means to the 365 day.

  There are some astronomical data that does suggest and point to this hypothesis.

  And indeed, it is hereby suggested directly that such a back-transformation does reveal the state of the earth as was once manifest at some remote point in history, wherein there truly was an exacting harmonic correspondence between the value of its orbital period in days, and the value ascribed to the equatorial circumference of the earth in Ideal Geographical Miles; both of which conformed to the basic numeric sequence of the Babylonian measures: 360 & 21600, via a x60 multiplier.

  The important to mention however, is that the numerical value of 360, nominally taken to be representative of a 360 degree circle (in geometry), does in fact represent 360 days of an ideal earth year, with the value 21600, actively representing the measure of the earth equator in ideal geographical miles.

  Doesn’t that become mutually exclusive, or symbolic? Without holding the hypothetical to a double standard, then it would simply imply that proving 607BC would auto redeem 1914, wouldn’t it.

  However, I'm still on the fence on the information and comments made here.

  I have a hypothetical question. What if someone proved 607BC to be a viable date through secular history, what then.
