i was recently directed to post some truths about the harlot, babylon the great, including who she is (i.e., those who profess to be in union with christ, but are not, and so commit fornication with the "kings of the earth" (e.g., persons such as popes, gb members, and other so-called "leaders" who believe they have been given charge over a "kingdom"... but have not... yet (revelation 17:12)... and when they are, it is soley for the purpose of destroying the harlot (revelation 17:13, 16-18)).. some have taken issue with this truth (who babylon the great is), and praise jah, our lord has given me more to share with you on that matter.

some of you may have already received this truth; however, for those who have not, i share the following, taken from chapters 8 and 9 of the proverbs:.

Your post to me says different..Your very frusterated..You have no intention of addressing my post to you..

Instead I get Juice and a Nap....LOL!!

If you try adult conversation instead of pictures and sniping comments you'll get discussion instead a time out in the corner. It's the inverse of the golden rule, you are being treated just like you have deserved.

Instead of getting all Pissy..Read Shelbys Posts..I mean really read them..

I did read them. If you felt I was pissy....well. Oh well. See my comment above.

I`m Agnostic..Not a Christiam..And..I understand everything she says..
If you read Shelbys anwers to you..Your questions will be answered..
Whether you believe those answers,is up to you..But..
You will have to make the effort to Read and Understand..

Oh, I read it and I understand it. It's just not internally consistent at all. Questions that point that out tend to be viewed as caustic. When someone tried to be snarky with comments and pictures and get beat down like a redheaded step child that's talking back...well, I can see why you wouldn't like that either.

Don`t read..
Then offer Shelby,a Nap and Juice..LOL!!

Why? Shelby has been perfectly polite and sincere.

"john barr made clear that the gathering wound not continue indefinitely.

You'd think he would want to be clear on this.

I once heard one of our elders (one of the ones on my JC), at door say to a person "God makes it hard to understand on purpose to confuse people so only those that struggled to learn would understand.

"All athiests/agnostics will regret their path and beg God to take them in before their death..."

by sabastious in

that's what my older jw brother of 34 said a few months back.

he actually 100% believes that an athiest cannot have a happy life.. -sab.

God is all knowing and as such, God knows why some have turnded from "him" and there will be no need for begging or anything like that.

God is loving and accepting and understanding, God knows the horrid things that are done in his name and why people turn from him.

sounds like permission for hookers and blow to me...

even if his/her frustration is causing him/her to become... ummmm... caustic.

I am neither frustrated nor caustic. People often mistake pointed questions for someone being caustic.

First, it wasn't burning, dear one. Really, it wasn't. It just LOOKED like it was "on fire" because there was a fiery being (an angel) sitting in it.

That's fine, but it's irrelevant to the point that god or his angel acting on his behalf caused a physical manifestation in a place where moses saw it because he wanted moses to hear him (regardless of whether or not moses would agree or care). My question still remains, why doesn't god do that for everyone? Does he not care about us as well? Moses didn't have to tune in, all he had to do was...nothing.

You can’t have it both ways, dear one: either He does manifest Himself… and chooses who to do so with… and WHY... as well as who NOT to (which I will discuss in a second)… or He doesn’t.

I'm not trying to have it both ways, I am asking a question about the need to tune in to hear god when clearly that isn't necessary if he wants someone to hear him. I am only allowing that he does for the purposes of the discussion since he hasn't in any verifiable way except as voices in people heads. Which, BTW, raises another question, how does one determine between god and just regular old crazy voices?

If He DOES… and your adamant stance on those you claim He MADE see/hear tends to lead me to believe that YOU believe He DOES… then where is your argument going?

It's a question, not an argument. The question is that, if god cares, why would he only physically manifest himself or angels to certain people to inspire faith? why not everyone? why can some people pray all their life and seek god only to be empty? Either god is too busy, doesn't care, isn't listening or doesn't exist.

So… bottom line: you need to check YOUR heart out… and “see” whether or not you are receiving EXACTLY what you are asking for… and HOPING to receive. As I’ve stated, I think you are. There error is not God’s, dear one. It is yours. And it is because you have been sorely misled about these things… by the blind guides.

To the point about asking, you said your friends were asking for wisdom. that's what solomon asked for. Why would that be a bad thing? would a parent blame their child for asking when they would be fed if they were hungry? if that's god's attitude, then god is a bad parent.

Nowhere does it say..A Bush appeared,with an Angel in it..

LOL!!..

Your comprehension of the Written Word,is Dismal..

I never said that it said that, sweety. If you need any help understanding it I will he happy to assist you in any way I can, dear. We can sit down together and read over it and we can work on our numbers and colors and play this little piggie went to market and then you can have some apple juice and crackers and take a nap so you don't get all grumpy and then when you wake up you can watch Dora and then play outside on the playground.

And what would you do with that knowledge? Just curious.

I already said that would be enough to make me beleive in god...

Not sure that, if with that kind of view, any proof will be proof enough...

Why? God routinely changes hearts according to christians and the bible. Are you suggesting I am too tough for god?

You sure? becaue it didn't work for eveyone according to the bible.

Are you sure you wouldn't just chalk it up to a "mental episode", "mental illness", or something like that?

Look, if that's what I think it would take to convince me and God tries and can't do it, he's not much of a god, is he?

I understand what the word "GO" means..

You act like the Bible was Specifically Written,to Inconvience you..

LOL!!..

You might understand that word, but you skip the part where an angel of god made it appear so he could see it. Camel, gnat, etc.

This message was brought to you by the letters F and U (just two little letters, sweetheart. next time you need some learning, just let me know).

So, what proof do you think woudl be enough proof for you?

An honest question.

God could appear before me, show me a miracle or two, show me the wonders of heaven, I would be convinced. Rods into snakes, water to wine, resurrect a dead person....that should do it.

Hmmm, I think this sounds more like a "God needs to prove there is a God" than a "why doesn't God communicate with us more", no?

One would do nicely and accomplish both.

Evolution is a fact, God can no more disprove evolution than God can disprove gravity. You say that God can prove that he created everything, well, are you sure about that? I mean, what proof woudl be enough for you?

Because the proof may just be that he set events in motion and allowed for the chain reaction to do what he knew it would always do.

He's god, right? he can harden the hearts of some when it chooses, he should be able to figure out what would be proof enough for me. Unless he can't, in which case there is something he can't do which means he isn't god.

I am sorry that this is probably NOT what you wanted to hear, but I feel I am speaking from the heart.

It's not a matter of what I WANT to hear, it's more of a matter of the stories in the bible not lining up with experience. God could disprove evolution, prove that he created everything, prove his existance....whatever he wanted, just like, in the bible, he did time after time with the israelites or Jesus doing miracles for people to see. Yet...silence. Nothing, zip, nada.
