The Bible teaches that in the past, Jehovah used angels to communicate with men (Hebrews 1:1, 2), but among men He raised up many prophets to speak on His behalf, and, really, except for the archangel that God sent to us, the Lord Jesus Christ, the greatest prophet among men that has ever lived here on earth, they were all of them imperfect men, but all of these men that prophesied, all represented Jehovah, all spoke in Jehovah's name, as did Jesus, as did Paul, as did Russell, as even do I. When I speak the words of God in your hearing, @Essan, it is it not I that is speaking, but you should know that it is Jehovah that is speaking to you.

Slight difference between the prophets of the Bible and you and Russell...

(this is for egghead only): Show me where a prophet of your Bible made a wrong prediction such as Russell's "1874 Christ Presence." Also, would God repremand his prophet for speaking wrong predictions in his name?

Challenge to DJeggnog Regarding his Lies.

by Essan in

i'm disgusted.

so, i'm formally challenging djeggnog to either substantiate or retract his outrageous claim that:.

1. russell made no predictions about 1914.. 2. specifically, russell never predicted christ's "coming" for 1914.

I won't tell you why brackets are used in the NWT, but I used them in quoting you for a very different reason that such are used in the NWT. Perhaps it would be good for you to ask someone that you respect the reason or maybe you could just visit a community college somewhere (assuming that you at least have a high school diploma!) and take a class in English grammar, which would be better than your remaining in your current state of literacy. I readily admit that I'm a bad typist -- I'm the typo king! -- but what excuse do you have really for the illiteracy you exhibit? Did you have to quit high school or elementary school to take employment somewhere in order to take care of your siblings or what? Or do you even have an excuse?

Every single JW apologist I have read resort to personal attack, it's quite astounding. Carry on, there are many that are reading and have read this thread and I would wager you are helping a lot of them out by opening their eyes to the truth about the truth.

Remember all those stories about Witnesses praying to Jehovah because of financial issues and they always recieve a check in the mail, and it's always for the exact amount they needed to pay the outstanding bill(s).

a letter was read at our place this week, the wts has asked us to pass a resolution asking that we leave our funds with the society at 0% interest as opposed to the 1% below bank rate(which at the moment means nothing).. of course, it was passed..

sabastious

of course it as - has anyone here ever known a resolution not to be passed?

No, but I DID see someone raise their hand once when they asked for "all who oppose." She was the only one in a cong of about 150 people.

Chick had guts!
