  how will I know you in paradise?

  so we have been led to believe that we will all look the same as we do now...except we will have no flaws and a perfected body without deformity or ailment.

  hmmm..... how do we know this to be true?

  is there any scriptural reference to this aspect of "resurrection"?

  "yes, that is just what i want to know," said the duck; and she swam away to the end of the pond, and stood upon her head, in order to give her children a good example.

  " asked the water-rat.

  "'well, really,' answered the miller, 'as i have given you my wheelbarrow, i don't think that it is much to ask you for a few flowers.

  Yes. I guess a lot of people could see themselves here...good natured and gullible and never wanting to offend. Many of them are the meek and humble.

  Welcome, Batty.

  I love the way you speak and translate.

  It gives me goosebumps.

  Do you ever see the movie Addams Family when Morticia says to Gomez "Speak Portugese to me?"

  Well, its like that.

  You are really cute and very nice to make touch with us.

  Much hope you will come and take part with us, too.

  Mucho Welcome.

  This should cover gift and behavior. Maybe give it to his fiance and tell her it might come in handy when she is expected to be submissive and "keep the peace". Let her know you are on her team. Bet that will spook her!

  2. entertainment

  i've really been trying to put it out of my mind because i don't want to have these fears, but they wont go away!!.

  i really thought that my mind was free from the mind control of the borg but i don't think it can be completely.

  ever since reading the postings about all the changes they are going to make i feel panicky and i think it is because they can still get to me.. i don't want to feel like this and i am fighting against it but i am finding it is getting to me.. does anyone else on jwd have any of these fears still?.

  How can I disprove
  lies that are stamped with an official seal?

  You can deny all the things I've seen

  All the things I've discovered.
  But not for much longer.
  Because too many others know
  what's happening out there.
  And no one, no government agency
  has jurisdiction over the truth.

  Maddie, the wbts IS a government agency. Why do you think they call it "governing body"?

  The world famous "Big Eye" paintings had their beginning in San Francisco over 50 years ago, by the artist Margaret Keane. In time they also became known and referred to as "Waifs," "Keane," "Sad Eyes," and many other titles, all depicting the unique styles of this very creative woman. You may be surprised to hear the artist is a woman. You see, for many years she was married to a man who claimed credit for what she painted. To prove she was in fact the artist and not her former husband, she painted in court before a Federal Judge and jury, an original oil on canvas painting. When her ex-husband was asked to paint by the judge, his reply was: "I can't today, because I have a sore shoulder." Needless to say Margaret won the case and she continues to paint those Big Eyes we have come to love so dearly.

  After divorcing her husband, Margaret moved to Hawaii and lived there for almost 27 years. While there her style of painting changed in the sense that the paintings became brighter in color. And, after becoming one of Jehovah's Witnesses, the paintings became happier, since this changed her outlook on life. Though still painting with tears, they are most often tears of joy and not sadness. Presently, she lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.

  I truly hope you will get much enjoyment from viewing this site as it is developed in the coming months. In time you will see my offerings of Original Oil and Mixed-Media Paintings, Signed & Numbered Limited Edition Prints, Sculptures, Posters, Dolls, Jewelry and Garments.

  No xmas fluff. But I think I will give some of my JW friends a real present...maybe a week before xmas. I found some wrapping paper with lions and lambs on it. I don't think they will refuse the gifts. I dunno. What do you all think? Did you just nicely accept gifts?

  Also, I think they may be (deep-down) happy to be on the recieving end...just because they never get an occassion. What do you all think?
