When I studied back in late 1960's, I learned that the blood of Jesus would continue to 'cover future sins in the New System' until he hands the Kingdom back to his father. Then we stand on our own.

Since "OUR" sins are "CANCELLED WHEN WE DIE", what happens to DF'd persons's sins?
by african GB Member ini am just wondering since the elders don't even bury the df'd..... do they stay df'd even after death?.

Due to Global financial crisis each Aussie gets $900 from the government?
by Witness 007 inyes what a great country we live in!
the government pays us $4,000 for having a baby {we need to fill this part of the earth} and due to the economic crisis we get $900 dollars from the goverment....of course some people tried using the baby money to buy a plasma tv so now the draw out the payments rather then a tempting lump sum..

Spend it wisely as it may be the last 'thrill' before the situation becomes even worse re financial crisis.
Unemployment figures continuing to rise.

Entertaining Angels
by cameo-d inquote from rutherford book enemies:.
"satan is a spirit creature, therefore invisible to human eyes; and also angels are spirit creatures and invisible to human eyes" (p.34).
in bible scriptures, "angels" have made appearances to humans.

Hi cameo-d,
It (WT) says the angels materialized or 'put on' a body like our own.
In that way, conversations can be had, meals eaten, struggles/fights take place.

A thought provoking movie. No matter which way we go at it - life - we still end up dying.
Well acted by all.

So, there is no everlasting life...
by Quirky1 inme and my jw wifey were talking this morning.
the conversation was about her aunt that's dying of cancer.
we were discussing the issue of death and i mentioned that there is nothing we can do about it and that we will all have to go thru it at one time or another and she agreed and even spoke further about it.. i am thinking wtf, "what about everlasting life", since this is what they preach and are taught.

Yeah, they 'wait' their lives away.
Waiting to have children in the new system - if one is married and makes it throught (together) the GT that is.
Life is for living now to the fullest and best way a person can. God surely could not object to that.

Yes, saw it a few weeks ago and enjoyed it very much. Nicole and Hugh perfect for their parts played.
Interesting how Australia (Darwin) was bombed by the Japanese after Pearl Harbour.

Do you remember the past, or do you live in it?
by sweetstuff in"all we have is now, the past has gone, the future hasn't happened yet" my favorite .
very apt as well.

All we have is this present moment, the now.
The past, as I look back to it, is sweet. Plainly that means I'm getting older and sentimental. Each person is a product of their past making them who they are right now.
Our future is unknown and we move forward into it each second. One hour ago is the past and we are unable to return.
Time is a strange thing, like we are multi-dimensional beings.
