Wouldn` t JEHOVAH ? have been more applicable ? seeing he is the one they claim to represent because of Christendom`s , so called exclusion of the name which is utter bullshit ?

Their are thousands of references of Christendoms religions in texts , ancient writings and commentaries ,Bible Dictionaries , Commentaries . discussions of Old Testament , New Testament , thesis and so forth , both Jewish and Christian scholars that attest the name of God being recognised as Jehovah /Yahweh .going back Centuries .

Rebutting the lie that Christendom was hiding that name from Christians , and more importantly , that J.W.`s were the only ones that used Gods name .

What a load of rubbish that is still being said today.

Isn`t that the church that originated in the Phillipines , that is very similar in many ways to JW`s with a far greater membership worldwide I might add . and not to be confused with the Church of Christ that originated in America.?

Believing in God does not make you dumb , as can be shown by history .Many scientific , medical ,industrial , innovative , achievements have been made over the Centuries by men and women who have had belief in the Bible.

Believing in charlatans , self delusional people who claim to be God`s only spokesperson for God ,false prophets ,cults , etc.

,Believing in these types , can certainly lead you down the path , whereby you become dumb by suspending reason and critical thinking and blindly accepting what they say as "truth"

That`s dumb

whats so bad about believing people go to heaven?

by sowhatnow in

it occurred to me today, that so often, my mother will make the comment that .

"those false religions teach that everyone is going to heaven when they die, oh sure, .

all you have to do is be a good person, and off you go to heaven.

Isn`t there a joke about that somewhere ? It goes like this.

Peter is showing new arrivals around heaven , and different faiths have different doors to them with a welcoming sign on them.

All except Jehovah`s Witnesses , that says , Do not enter.

The new arrivals ask why that sign is on the J.W.door

Peter answers , because they think there the only ones up here

My wife made a very wordly comment the other night

by Clambake in

my wife who is currently on maternity leave made a comment about luck she was to leave in canada because we get 52 weeks maternity at basically 40,000 per year.

she is not originally from canada coming from a country with basically no maternity leave.

i told her to make sure she doesn't say anything like that at kh.

No more pain sorrow or crying in new system!!!!!!!

God apparently spoke to and visited people in the 1st Century according to the Bible.regarding his puposes and to give instructions for his and Jesus followers .As he has done 4000 years previously with different prophets and faithful men of old , and also some women.

2000 years ago people never had the Scientific knowledge or education we have today , yet for 4000 years previously God had numerous occasions where he communicated with humans and apparently he had no issues back then in doing so , why he even had conversations with Satan the Devil in heaven on occasion as did Jesus Christ .Satan wasn`t shunned at any time,

2000 years ago to the present day we havent seen or heard from our Lord God Jehovah or his glorious son Christ Jesus at all , What is the difference between the first 4000 years and the latter 2000 years , one where he was involved in their affairs to the latter where he is totally silent .not saying yay or nay about anything.

If a human being witnesses a crime or an injustice against anybody/somebody and does nothing about it , how or what do we think about that person .?

If God the Almighty /Jehovah , see`s crimes and injustices against his creation , humans and he does nothing about it , in over Centuries of time , how should we feel about him .?
