whilst christians like to portray jesus as the supreme example of love and mercy ( as opposed to a supposedly wicked 'watchtower god' ), does the bible's presentation of jesus cast him in quite the same flattering light that christians like to believe?
for instance, at revelation 19:15 jesus is described as 'smiting the nations and ruling them with a rod of iron and treading the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of almighty god.
' does jesus sound just as bad as the 'wicked watchtower god'?
The vast majority were harmed by Jesus belivers.
Ever noticed how the majority of people who get victimised are innocent and most of the time the ones who do the crime gets away?
Peter paid for Paul and Paul paid for all.
Jesus was innocent too.

christ will have been among this world, and yet not of this world, under a veil of secrecy, in a world of hypocricy.
a child like no other, in a bubble, with a suit of armor, direct from the mountain and born in its peaks.
rich beyond belief from the start, as if armed for bear, in the body of a lion in a world of lesser men.
He is coming! Yes indeedy kid. He is. No-one knows the day or time. Only God knows. You know there's a saying what goes up must come down? Apply it even though it is not about gravity.

Jesus is already our friend didn't you know?

do you still believe in the god of the bible or some vague supreme being?
do you believe in god and still consider yourself christian?
do you believe that jesus is part of some godhead?
My God is the Creator of the Universe.

i saw the latest wt magazine released this week.
i don't have it on me but on the cover it asks the question, "is there only one true god?".
skimming the story inside i noticed they quoted the verse in isaiah where it mentions there is only one god and there never was or will be a god alongside him.. "hmm," i wondered, "how will they reconcile this with john 1:1?".
Ok yes you are people right.
Now check this out.
Let's take for e.g. someone's mother.
Now your mother could be:
A mother, a wife, a sister, an aunt, a friend, a cousin, a nurse, a teacher, a co-worker, a group member, a singer, a dancer......BUT SHE IS ONE PERSON.

They don't appear anywhere before the late 4th century (in Latin), and only later made their way into Greek manuscripts (the oldest Greek manuscript which contains them is of the 11th century).
Where did you get such info from?
