2012 Prophecy
by brotherdan in

2. beliefs
now, i know that the 2012 issue has been blown out of proportion.

and i know all the reasons that believing in them are wrong.

but has anyone else noticed a growth in this type of conversation?

Brotherdan,
God didn't tell us when the end of this world will be ,
but through Biblical chronology found in inspired prophecies, He tells us when certain events - taking place within His people, during the "latter days"- will be , I mean, events that marks Christ's "coming"
and around 2012 a certain event will be , that is , the "70 years of Babylon" will come to end ,
and His worshipers with "spirit and truth" , who were/are prisoners in Babylon (and at the "Daughter of Babylon" ) will be made free and gathered in "one flock" under the Jesus Christ authority
see Jeremiah 29:10-14
for those "studious" Christians I recommend this theme

VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION!!!!
by brotherdan in
1. jw
2. friends
so i was talking to one of my "apologist" friends, and he just got back from a mormon outreach mission in utah.

he was able to help a 17 year old mormon girl to begin to see the truth and was really excited about it.

he goes to these temple conventions and temple openings all the time to preach jesus to them.. so he was interested in doing that at a jw convention.

Can you think of a scripture that best describes the WTS
by wasblind in
1. watchtower
2. bible
2 timothy 3:7.

"always learning and yet never able to come to an accurate knowledge of truth.

".

The leaders of WT fit right the "daughter of Babylon's way of thinking described in Isaiah 47 !
read it .

Oh , Kosonen !
what are you looking for ?
here is the one in Russia
but I think you are worshiping Father "with Spirit and with truth" , and in this case these ones are not so dangerous ...
... as are the ones (false Christs ) sitting on the "seat of Moses" ... within God' people , settled themselves even "as god in the Temple of God" !
These ones represent the real danger for Jesus brothers !
I hope you understand , dear friend .

Do somebody know what Russell taught about Babylon the Great?
by Kosonen in
1. watchtower
2. bible
i once looked into an old publication in the kingdomhall library and found what russell taught to be babylon the great.

i remember that it was not what the watchtower explains today, the world empire of false religion but it was something else.

but i do not remember the expanation.

Nice to hear again from you, Kosonen !
By the way , have you consolidate your view/understanding regarding who/what is BTG during the "latter days" period of time ? (I said during the latter days , and not all the time from apostles until today )

never quit - never give up!it may well be, i put this post on once before, but when did a litle extra encouragement ever hurt anyone?

we need all we can get during these last critical days, don't we?.

how many of us at various stages of our life have not felt like king david, because of our inherited tendency towards sin?

2. beliefs
who, and where, are the chosen ones?.

" {1 john 2:27 niv} now, these chosen ones today can say as did the apostle paul did in the first century, which was:.

{revelation 12:9} it is only the chosen ones that satan cannot mislead!

wannabe , you said :
These chosen Ones will not only know ALL TRUTH they will even come to know what is yet ahead in the future.
===========================
we have the testimony of a Chosen One named apostle Paul who said : ( 1 Cor. 13 )
9. For we know in part and we prophesy in part;

10. but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away.

11. When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things.

12. For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known.
Wannabe , how do you reconcile your declaration with that of a Chosen One ?
thank you in advance for answer!

wannabe, you said :
The devil would just love to be able to induce the Chosen Ones to participate in the World-Wide preaching activity of Jehovah's Witnesses; but there's not the remotest possibility of that ever happening, because they would know that, that is the work of a false prophet, designed to mislead the entire inhabited earth.
=======================
the preaching work did begin in 1922 , the "name" of "Jehovah's witnesses" was adopted in 1931 ...
NOW , the question is , would you say that no "Chosen One" was involved in this group of people , and from what year they should NOT be there , 1922 or 1931 ?
if you were living in that period - 1922 or 1931 - being so faithful as you are today , would you have been in or out of that group of Christians ?
-- I am waiting a sincere answer !
sorry if I cannot be more explicite in this language ...
