4. I believe that both those who professed to be anointed and those who have the earthly hope should partake at the
Memorial.
Yes, I am sure you do. But Jesus said you should partake of his body and blood only UNTIL HE RETURNS. So if you think he returned in 1914, NONE OF YOU SHOULD TAKE THE MEMORIAL.
Additionally, the 144,000 are, according to Revelation: 144,000 in number, Male in gender, taken from amongst the 12 tribes, have not defiled themseleves with women.
Here's a fun game, let's pick out JUST ONE of those 4 and MAKE UP A DOCTRINE OUT OF IT and IGNORE THE OTHER THREE COMPLETELY!!
There are none so blind......as those that do not want to see.

over on h20 our friend rick is trying to get to grips with circles, spheres and basic geometry in an attempt to prove the bible to be scientifically accurate.
(i dont see the point as the bible is not a book of science and its history is often shrouded in myth) .
all of this reminded me of a passage in a recreational math book called beyond numeracy by ja paulos.
Firstly, a bowl is not necessarily circular in cross section.
Secondly, the value of Bible is hidden, but in a rather straightforward way in the Bible.
