  from the time he was a child in peru, the mormon church instilled in jose a. loayza the conviction that he and millions of other native americans were descended from a lost tribe of israel that reached the new world more than 2,000 years ago.. .

  This happens when Cults try to influence this World. Jesus told that his Kingdom is not of this world, so the Christians ar not of this world, still have to exist in this World.

  Does the Bible contain all the truth?

  by greendawn in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  does the bible contain the whole religious truth or just a part of it that just happened to get recorded, and came to us?

  i think only a small part of the truth is in the bible, eg jesus says to the apostles "i call you my friends because i revealed to you everything that i heard from my father" but i am sure he told them a lot more in those three years than what is in the gospels.

  much of the truth that was said or written before or after john's revelation never came to us.

  It contains all the truth you need for salvation.
  Even single John gospel is enough, as he writes in John 20:31
  So yes, Bible is enough for salvation and much more for that! But ofcourse it does not contains all the truth in the world. For example there is not much about 2nd thermodinamics law!

  Who did Russell get his anti Trinity doctrine from?

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a lot of russell's doctrines were taken from the adventists.

  however, seventh day adventists worship the trinity, so i am wondering who russell took his anti trinity doctrine from.

  christadelphians started in the mid 1800's, was it from them?

  Russels heressy comes from Arius thanks to whom Church had to define trinity explicitly! JW use this argument actually without knowing they are reminding why doctrine of trinity was explicitly defined. First heressies were gnosticism which were adressed in Pauls and Johns writings, next heresy was Arianism, and then church defined doctrine of trinity as we know it today. The teaching was there even before Arius was born, JW just don't believe what Churhc fathers teached as they do not read the history, and when read - does not believe if Elders do say otherwise.

  WT library idea

  by coffee_black in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  some here have original copies going back to russell's time.

  would it make sense to have a resource library available where we pool what we have?

  i have quiet a lot...it's sitting in boxes in my daughter's garage in florida at the moment, but i can get it at some point.
