  to honor the son is to honor the father.. i am a practicing jw who i believe is of the heavenly calling.

  this post is not to criticize wts but to open honest discussion among mature followers of christ.. there has been much controversy around the wts doctrine regarding the arch angel michael.

  as many are aware, wts believe that jesus in his pre-human existence was michael , gods first born.

  Lets go to the tape. What does the Word of God say?

  Heb 13; 8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, and forever.

  So, if you believe the bible, I guess it's different then the WTS Jesus, eh?

  http://regulatemarijuanalikewine.com/legal-and-political-analysis-of-regulate-marijuana-like-wine/.

  i am ecstatic to hear that people are attempting something like this.

  i have always thought that using marijuana could be likened to using wine as a medicine.

  There can be as many strains of weed as there can be types of dogs.

  Or a better analogy could be types of wine..depending on the buzz.

  Loved the Floyd. Too bad that Water's ego ruined great chemistry. He wrote the words, but Gilmore has that sound that others wanted on their albums [Pete Townsend and Paul McCartney to name a couple] I do not know of anyone asking Roger Water's to play on their album, but I may be wrong.

  Although Momentary lapse of reason was not the typical Floyd rock opera, it did set up a much better division bell. That is one of my favorites [just like the final cut]

  just mho mind you.

  Thanks so much Band, DOC and Mind blown. I know ofcourse that all of you are right. My direct approach has not worked in years, so there's no sense in keeping that tact.

  I must submit to common sense.

  Thank you all for confirming what I knew, but didn;t want to admit.

  Merry Christmas to all!

  Thanks TM and DN. I was thinking the same thing, but on the other hand, because they did decide to go I [hoped] it might provide another chance to say SOMETHING. Of course, actions do speak louder than words.

  Gratefully yours,

  The Watchtower is NOT a false prophet

  by The Quiet One in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  regarding what some have said here about the wt being a false prophet.. i would like to make my point regarding the wt not being a false prophet... so please, if you can be patient enough to read this, at least try to understand what i am getting at.. a false prophet is one who, according to deuteronomy, makes a false prediction of the future and claims that the prediction came from god, or in other words claiming that 'god has said he will do a certain thing at a certain time' etc.. for example, hypothetically speaking, if someone had claimed: "god will bring about the end of the world in 2010", they would have been proven to be a false prophet, obviously.

  but, as an example, imagine a man who claimed the position of a prophet of god, (as moses did, because although he was not the type of prophet that predicted the future.. he was still a prophet or spokesman for god) and that he had publicised worldwide, according to his interpretation of a (for example) prophecy found in the book of isaiah, that the world would end in 2010.. and he had also stated that he was not saying that god will end the world in that year.. but only that there was biblical evidence that god might do so.

  that would clearly have been a mistake.
