I agree with BikerChick. Volunteering for a cause and making a difference in someones life, makes me feel 10feet tall.

Disproving An Earthly Paradise
by Diogenes intwo elders are coming round to "shepherd" me next week.. i've been reading the article available by jon mitchell?
about rev:7 discussing the 1980 w.t which is full of lies about naos and hieron.. i'm going to bring this w.t up but i know the elders will mention the scriptures in psalms 37 and isaiah to prove that there is an earthly paradise.. is there a good logical way to refute these scriptures?.

Heres Three Basic Thoughts Of The Old Testament---
1) God's promise to Abraham: that in his seed all Nations should be Blessed. God founded the Hebrew Nation for the specific purpose of making it a Messianic Nation to the World, that is, a nation through which Great Blessings would come to All Nations.
2) God's Covenant with the Hebrew Nation: That, if they would Faithfully Serve Him, they would Prosper as a Nation: That , if they forsook Him, and served Idols, they would be destroyed as a nation. All nations worshiped Idols. There were gods everywhere: gods of the sky, gods of the earth, gods of the sea, gods of the cities, gods of the mountain, gods of the valleys, men gods, femal gods, family of gods. The Old Testament is an account of God's age-long effort to establish, in a world of Idol-Worshiping nations, the IDEA that there is ONE GOD by building a NATION around the Idea.
3) God's Promise to David: That His Family should Reign over God's People Forever. When God's Nation became a Great Nation, Godd chose One Family in the nation, the Family of David, and began to build around that Family His Promise, that, out of that Family there would come One Great King, who would Himself personally Live Forever, and establish a Universal Kingdom of Endless Duration.
THUS: In founding the Hebrew Nation. God's ULTIMATE object Was to bring Christ into the world: God's IMMEDIATE object Was to establish, in a world of Idolatry, As a background to the coming of Christ, The Idea that there is One True Living God.

The Shepards that feed themselves (JW's), just don't know when to stop the False Teachings. They really need to KEEP THEIR EYE'S UPON JESUS.
