ok, this post isn't out to prove anything, other than i've got too much time on my hands, which alot of you know that already.. over my morning coffee this morning i decided to read the section of the bible dealing with nimrod and the tower of babel.
i have two bibles at home the nwt and the new american standard.
heres what th nwt says at gen 10:9.
The question is, is he in opposition to the Hebrew god Yahweh,
What other God would this context be speaking of? Of course it was Yahweh.
the other day my spouse heard a report on npr about the french government fining the watchtower millions of us dollars (40 million?
) for the so-called contributions they squeeze out of people.
did anyone reading this hear that report?
This has been an issue for quite a while actually.
Freeminds has an article you can read on the subject.
i'm trying not to get overly excited cause i've been disappointed so many times but i think i have found a place and will be moving in a couple of weeks.
i will be getting a phone call tomorrow either way and all signs point to yay!.

Wish you the best, Be careful!!!Keep in touch.

why the ransom?.
when you think of all those suffering today and throughout the generations, and all this happened just because two inexperienced people went up against a powerful spirit creature and lost.!.
now, if someone is in jail, lets say for something like stealing, someone can perhaps pay for their release on bail.
Yes - the bible does not say he had the ability to reason until AFTER he hate from the tree.
Just oooooooooooooooone more thing before we go!!!!
To say that Adam and Eve "knowing good and bad" is equated with having the power to reason does not fit.
A person may hear of and see the results from cancer, but until he has it, will he ever experience the effects of it.
on the back cover of the april 8 issue of awake!
is a little story about two teenagers 'caught' praying at macdonalds.
apparently the two teenagers felt the need to explain to an onlooker that they were praying to a 'different' god, or in the words of the article "not just any god".. i'm curious, which god was this?
My little grandaughter when she was 6 said "grandpa....how come you don't love Jehovah"?
Even this little girl equates anyone who does not go to the Kingdom Hall and is not a Jehovah's Witness as one who does not know/love God.
Because they use "THE NAME", and because they feel they are the only ones who know what the scriptures really mean.....and other people do not....then they are the only ones who KNOW him and THEY are the only ones he KNOWS or cares about.
The bible dosen't mention either one of those things for one to be loved by God.
this is something i've been puzzling over recently.
just for argument's sake, let's say that jesus did exist - was he murdered on a stake or on a cross?
this is puzzling me, because the only real research i've ever read on the subject was in wtbts publications, and since this is obviously a highly questionable source of documentation, i'd love it if someone here could point me to a scientific resource for finding out the truth about this...thx.... the earlier in the forenoon you take the sun bath, the greater will be the beneficial effect, because you get more of the ultra-violet rays, which are healing.
NICE, WELL WRITTEN REPLY KENNESON. IT WILL BE NICE TO HAVE YOU HERE.

Quote..."Say you have a 3 year old. Old enough to understand English, can even communicate a little, but knowledge of right vs wrong is completely out of their grasp. You tell them not to pick up a gun and shoot people because it's wrong. You then leave the gun, loaded, in the middle of the room on the floor so it's good and easy to get at".
Your comparing Adams ability and comprehension with that of a 3 year old.
A little 3 year old, has not learned experiences with consequences of doing Good or Bad.
Was Adam created with the comprehension of Bad and Good? Much better than a 3 year old?
If he was.....and God evidently PROGRAMMED him with KNOWLEDGE to a degree where he could independantly choose a course that would be JUST, regardless of which course he would choose.......THEN I DON'T SEE YOUR REASONING.
what will you do when harmageddon is here?
will you ask jehovah for a second chance?.
will you seek to protect your young children?.
YoYo. How much time do you roughly think I have if I were to come back.....say tonight....to get back in Jehovahs favor for leaving the dubs? Could you mail me?
