Considering the expense, perhaps a billboard that will get the media's attention might be the way to go. I still think a billboard across from Brooklyn Bethel would get quite a bit of attention.

I Am Curious, So A Couple/Few Questions, If I May...
by AGuest into the household of god, israel, and those who go with... may you all have peace!.
i am curious (and serious)... regarding your thoughts as to the "source" for the "sacred secrets" revealed by paul... and whether you believe he was the last to so receive (if you indeed believe so and excluding john's revelation) and why you believe so, particularly given the "gifts" of the spirit and the prophecy regarding its outpouring.
i am also curious as to what you believe such gifts are for... and how they are used.. i am curious... because i am concerned.

SA,
Thank you for your patience. You wrote, "I have seen him... and know what HE looks like, so when I read Psalms 18:6-10... I know "exactly" what it's speaking about. The description is absolutely accurate."
I hope you understand that unless, and until, I myself am convinced of such things I must remain as I am. If the Christ is as you say he will help me to see it. Until then, I am as I am and cannot go beyond what I've learned.
I wish you God's love and peace, as I know you also hope the same for me and all who seek God through his Son.

SA,
Very interesting quote, thank you. Yet, from the scripture alone how do we know that the description in that scripture is to be taken literally? Take a close look at my avatar randomly assigned to me. A dragon with a three sided head, three eyes, and snakes coming forth from it, but that avatar is only a representation not actually me.
Christ's love upon you.

SA,
Well, I think I'm understanding your beliefs a little better.
I believe the Biblical language used to describe the seraphs and other heavenly ones including God himself are all in symbol making it simpler for us to understand rather than literal. But we are all free Christians and you certainly can believe as your heart impels you or as you believe the Christ is instructing you. I don't see where God is included in the seraph "kind" but I'm sure you have reason for believing so.
Christ's love upon you and yours, SA.

SA,
Thank you for answering. You said, in part, that when you saw the Christ:
"He is NOT attractive, by man's standards. Hideous, actually. Enough to cause those who saw him and wrote about it... faint before doing so.
Because he is a seraphs, as they all are. Even the MOST Holy One of Israel, JAH of Armies. That is their "kind."
What is a seraph? A "flying, fiery serpent." Or, to put it in a word you might understand... a dragon. They are, all of them "dragons" (and NOT how that word had been mistransliterated by man, particularly during the Middle Ages). Seraphs... which are flying, fiery serpents. And a serpent... is NOT a snake!!"
How then should we understand 1 John 3:2, "Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He appears, we will be like him, because we will see Him just as He is," in your opinion will the resurrected anointed be as you described the Christ above?

Can anyone come up with a morally acceptable reason for waiting thousands of years to end wickedness?
by gubberningbody ini can't.. some bar-bet between jehovah and satan balanced against all the evil allowed just doesn't wash..

Inkie,
Thank you for the kind reply and the scripture.
SA,
You wrote something and I would appreciate understanding exactly what you meant: "In addition, I have also seen our Lord..." Do you mean this in a spiritual or literal sense? Are you saying you actually saw the Christ? If you can, please expound on that bit.
Thank you,

How about; Jehovah's Witnesses do not allow freedom of speech.
What does a billboard cost in the Brooklyn Heights area?

Thanks Inkie, I don't believe being of the anointed automatically means one hears an audible voice. Do you hear an audible voice? If so, do you mind sharing your experience of what that voice sounds like? It is a deep male voice? Do you hear it during the day and night or only at certain times? What does it say to you?
You don't have to answer, just like the title of this thread, I'm curious.
