  Can the dead hear?

  by AmyWatson916 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the "what does the bible really teach?

  " book says we cannot speak to the dead (page 64) and that the dead do not hear (page 58) but on page 68 the book has jesus talking to a dead man and the dead man apparently hearing and responding.

  the same thing happens on page 69 when peter talks to a dead woman and the dead woman apparently hears and responds.

  Whether the dead can hear is more a matter of faith

  Which is code for make-believe.

  Which Watchtower publications did you keep?

  by Schnufti in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i'm currently cleaning up our bookcase and need to decide what goes into the trash.

  i'll keep the watchtower books that are not available online anymore (e.g.

  the brown "reasoning" book).

  I had a huge library. I dumped everything apart from a Studies in The Scriptures Vol 1 with the pyramid bullshit which I kept for historical curiosity.

  Rainbow - Why are you conflating rational with rigid?

  In our world of cctv and smart phones there is still zero evidence of the supernatural.

  It's not that I don't believe in hauntings and the supernatural, but it's another thing to be superstitious. - Cold Steel

  No it's exactly the same thing.

  There are no demons.

  Blindfold everybody and see how the ouija board suddenly stops working.

  By the way the word gullible is not in the dictionary - go and check.

  Would You EVER Go Back To Being A Jehovah's Witness?

  i could never understand why some people who know the truth about the "truth" ever go back.

  once you understand all the hypocrisy and negatives, i would think it's almost impossible to go back!.

  'Good god woman, you've come dressed as a bishop!

  Genius!

  WingCommander you are a buffoon.

  Prince Philip's public service over many decades has been outstanding. His Duke of Edinburgh scheme has helped tens of thousands of young people. He is actively involved in hundreds of charities and in all those years has remained self-effacing and modest.

  His outspoken style is refreshing. To still be fulfilling hundreds of public functions at 95 years of age is immense.

  even though the dictator is crazy he wants to live and he knows the US would just wipe him off the face of the earth

  I don't share your confidence. I think he actually believes his own publicity.

  I think there is a high degree of risk that NK will make a preemptive strike.
