  We are becoming champions of grief. We lost twin B.

  last week we had a reassurance ultrasound with our ob.

  she was just supposed to check heartbeats on the two little ones and they were going strong!

  but because she had extra time and she can be quite anal about her work (which is a good thing) she decided to take some measurements.

  Yes, Nik.

  I remember an elder almost begging me to let them assess the damage to my roof.

  I'd already arranged for someone else to look at it, and I could tell the elder didn't like that.

  The man did a good job and charged me hardly anything.

  However, there were others who signed their checks over to WT.

  True.

  the archangel, an archangel

  i'm reading a book called "what to do when they knock" that goes over the jw book "what does the bible really teach?".

  it points out that the "bible really teach" book, on page 218, makes a bit of a point about there being only one archangel.

  it says michael is "the archangel" and emphasizes that "the" means only one.

  LOL!

  Anything it takes to point to the magical year of 1914, when the other horsemen supposedly began their ride.

  Looking back, it makes absolutely zero sense.

  I.promise I will think of you, mon ami.

  Did I spell that correctly?

  LOL.

  My granddaughter in Japan has a big puppy, a cross between a German Shepherd and who knows what else.

  That dog drives them crazy!

  So, I really feel for you.

  Thanks for being my friend and supporter.

  Love (can't remember how to spell it in French).

  Daniel 10:14 shows that Michael is ONE of the foremost or chief angels, implying there are others.

  Woe to WT!!!

  @NY44 and STADD

  Thanks for replying.

  Another nice, cool day in South Alabama.

  My little JW daughter is taking a break from JW activities.

  She gave me a $20 bill just because ...

  Nice to have her here.

  I don't agree with the WT's teaching that Jesus of Nazareth is Michael the archangel.

  Yes.

  In Luke, Gabriel told Mary that he stands in the very presence of God.

  In Revelation, 4 beings surround the Throne - man-like, lion-like, eagle-like, bull-like.

  The Book of Enoch shows they are Gabriel, Michael, Phanuel, and Raphael, respectively.

  The books of Isaiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel also have their say about angelic creatures.

  If my calculations are correct, there are 101,000,000 of them - 70 are archangels.

  Originally, there were 151,500,000, but 1/3 defected - 50,500,000.

  Of that 50+ million, back in the days of Jared, 200 materialized into human males in order to copulate with human females.

  Those 200 are confined in an area known as Tartarus until their judgment day.

  All of the extra-Biblical works that I've read are in harmony with the Bible.

  I am truly enjoying what I'm uncovering.
