hi guys, i found a link that was posted here a while back, that had recordings of a ca in december, 2010.
(thanks) now, my friend would like to listen to all of it, as her college daughter just attended one here in arizona recently.
our question is - how similar are they to each other?
Hi guys, I found a link that was posted here a while back, that had recordings of a CA in December, 2010. (thanks) Now, my friend would like to listen to all of it, as her college daughter just attended one here in Arizona recently. Our question is - how similar are they to each other? I see that it's like conventions, in that all the talks use the same basic outline. So, would it be safe to say that the talks have VERY much the same content from place to place?
thanks, auntbee
" god raised up bold champions for his word, among whom were luther, zwingli, melanchthon, wycliffe, knox and others.
" (divine plan of the ages) um...hello??
bold champions for his word?
DIng: That would make a good youtube, someone studying the Reformers, because they were bold champions of God's Word. And then maybe they'd be reproved or something.
Wobble: Do you know what year those articles were published, were they in the WT? I do have the cd, maybe i can find it.

" God raised up bold champions for his Word, among whom were Luther, Zwingli, Melanchthon, Wycliffe, Knox and others." (Divine Plan of the Ages) Um...hello?? Bold champions for His Word? I thought they were deluded trinitarians completely out of step with Jehovahs Organization (wherever it was at the time), observing pagan holidays, not politically neutral (Zwingli died on the battlefield) and weighed down with various babylonish practices!!
I also love that chart saying that Luther was one of the seven messengers of the church, along with a few other Trinitarians, and Arius and Russell. ROFLMAO.
i was using google earth and clicked on the church symbols and there were kingdom halls all over the islands there.
are there a lot of jws there???.
ken p..
I don't know any statistics, but we have a close friend who is a native Hawaiian, and he has commented that there are "a lot." That is his perception, FWIW.
i was flipping through the newest awake this afternoon and stumbled on an interesting article.
the title is "is god omnipresent?
" this is a pretty basic christian belief, and i thought that the watchtower was on board with it.
LOL Gayle!!
what are some books you may have read that have changed your life?.
two of mine are: .
1. tao te ching version by steven mitchell.
Band on the RUn - Wow, that is fascinating about Madeleine L'Engle! I think all my daughters have read at least one of her books, so i will pass that on to them.
Best Nude Beaches? Hmm, i'll have to order one immediately! ew...
I like Happiness is a Serious Problem by Denis Prager. My favorite book of all time is the Book of Concord, a compilation of the Lutheran Confessions.

Our Readers Ask: Does God Have a Beginning?
"As difficult as the concept of God's eternity is to grasp, we cannot dismiss the idea simply because we cannot fully comprehend it. How reasonable is it that we should expect to understand all of God's ways.. There are aspects of Jehovah God and his workings that are too deep for our minds to fathom."
WT, July 1, 2010
In this instance, the idea of "mystery" and aspects of God being incomprehensible are ok, while at the same time Christendom is mocked for believing in the Trinity, because it's beyond our reasoning/comprehension.
i was just reading an article about the arizona shooter on abcnews.com and several red flag moments popped up for me.
here is a direct link to the article, page 2 specifically:.

That's very interesting, WingCommander. They were interviewing the next door neighbor on the local news last night, and asking the usual questions about the family, the parents, etc. The neighbor i'm sure said they WOULD NOT socialize with the neighbors, would not talk to anyone. He was saying that it was purposeful, rather than just that no one happened to know them.
alright guys,.
i'm going to suck up my pride, apologize to those that i offended, promise to not be insulting anymore, and let bygones be bygones.
i know that there will be people here that will make fun of me coming back after such a dramatic exit (i.e.
so you can all hang at my place. --- What? Are you serious? Gayle and i will be over shortly! (although she can get there faster) hahaha.

i was exposed to a mildly apocalyptic atmosphere within evangelicalism, and i really appreciate gary's thoughts on matthew 24. i hope it will be of interest to some of you to hear a completely different perspective.
