Good mid-morning, Non.
We are under a severe weather watch.
Storm clouds rolling in from the West all morning.
Blech.
Believe me, I know all about soggy yards.

Today's W.T on GB not being inspired is having ZERO impact on most J.W's
by Isambard Crater inthe congregation i attend had it's watchtower study on thursday night because of l.d.c work this week-end, and another congregation i have some not very spiritual friends in had their watchtower study on wednesday.
from what i have delicately prised out of people, the congregations loved the watchtower study this week, saying it was so encouraging and all the usual stuff, with no-one seeming to realise the g.b.
said they're not inspired, so the spirit int he past has moved them to teach wrong things, and all the other ideas excellently summed up on reddit.. today's watchtower will wash over the heads of most j.w's like it never even happened, the all remaining as loyal as ever, and it makes me so, so sad..

What is your understanding of the terms "Ransom" and "Redeem"?
by Doug Mason inwith respect to christ being the "redeemer" and of having "paid the ransom", i would like to know:.
(1) what is your technical understanding of each term?.
(2) what is the watchtower's understanding of each term?.

Agreed, except for one point.
There was no block between God and man until sin entered the picture.
By His death, Christ removed that block forever.
I believe that is why when He comes again, EVERY eye will see Him.
I like to think of Jesus of Nazareth as the Big Brother who stands up to the bully - sin.
Of course, He's going to deal with the Evil One, but first things first.
I like these discussions.

Forbidden Book
by snowbird inmy oldest daughter once worked at a convenience store/gas station for a muslim gentleman.. he had two sons - the older one @ university, and the younger worked with my daughter.. well, my daughter said the younger was blackmailing the older because the older was in possession of a bible!.
she also said the young man confessed to her that he often times went to a soul food joint way out in the country and ordered pork chops.
she said he told her they tasted soooo good.. lol.. sylvia.
