  Armageddon is coming! Armageddon is coming! I've got to tell the king!

  from what has been described in recent posts, this seems to be how the r+f are reacting to the wts's push for the big a. we've got a whole convention focussed on it called "deliverance is at hand", a new book entitled "keep jehover's day in mind", a campaign to invite people to the deliverance convention, a campaign coming up in september, and they're studying the outdated revelation book in 2007.. people on this board have mentioned that some r+f members are saying that armageddon is coming within the next few hours, and even the whole bethelite layoff excuse (going into the field) promotes all of this.. but there is no date.. the wts is doing the exact same thing that they did for 1975, but they haven't mentioned any date.

  they're getting the r+f excited about armageddon talk, but there is no goal.. how long do they expect to keep this up?

  they can't keep the jws running around for too long with high expectations, or they're going to burn out.. are they preparing for the year 2014?

  At first glance it looked like a fair header from the 6ft 7ins Liverpool striker. But slow-motion replays clearly showed Crouch grab a handful of Sancho's hair and leap above him.

  It stopped the Trinidad and Tobago defender from jumping to challenge for the ball.

  that's no fair!!

  well wad do you think?

  Peter Crouch's goal against Trinidad and Tobago was the centre of controversy on Thursday night when television replays showed he pulled Brent Sancho's dreadlocks as he won the header.

  For 82 minutes, Trinidad and Tobago held the 1966 World Cup winners to a goalless draw — until Crouch appeared to “piggy back” defender Brent Sancho to head home a David Beckham’s right side cross. The goal gave England a 1-0 lead. Video and photographic evidence appear to indicate that Crouch pulled Sancho down by his dreadlocks while climbing for the ball. A writer in the Miami Herald said that Crouch used Sancho as a stepladder.

  funny how simple it is for people to trash god .

  and then wonder why the world's going to hell.

  how can we expect god to give us his blessing and his protection if we demand he leave us alone?

  The world is NOT going to hell.
  
  Conditions are better for humans now more than ever.

  Sure .....considering global warming.

  and by the way the world also means humans too so no need to get so technical.

  A lot of truth in these words.

  I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are,
  
  but for years we've been telling God

  to get out of our schools,

  to get out of our government and
  
  to get out of our lives
  
  
  And being the gentleman He is, I believe He has calmly backed out.

  Mary--Perpetual Virgin?

  by sinamongurl in

  2. beliefs

  i read an excerpt from the book of mary stating that she was a perpetual virgin....joseph was quite up in age and was a widower with children, but was a god-fearing man and so did not sleep with her and kept her chastity...the only reason she was married was because that was apparently the law back then....so "thru god" he was chosen to take care of mary and jesus....apparently he did not have a long life after raising jesus.

  jesus was born in a cave and later when everyone was called to their birthplace...joseph, mary, and family all went to bethlehem...with no room in the inn they were in the stables but jesus was already born by then and quite possibly no longer an infant.

  this is very interesting to me because i was taught that mary did not stay a virgin (jw teachings) cause the bible mentions that jesus had brothers and sister, but this very well could have been josephs children from a previous marriage.... the excerpt came from a book called "lost books of the bible" by rh value publishing.

  The bible contains the truth of Jesus' birth.

  Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary, of the tribe of Judah, who was betrothed to Joseph, the descendant and heir of the house of David.

  The angel Gabriel announced to Mary that the power of the Highest should overshadow her, and that she should bear a son who should rule over the house of Jacob forever.

  Joseph the carpenter and his wife Mary went on a journey. When they arrived at Bethlehem in the evening, Joseph wanted to find a comfortable place for his wife Mary who needed to rest and who was awaiting the birth of her promised Son. The only place they found was a stable with camels, donkeys and sheep. There Jesus was born.
