This scripture alone may not raise a flag in ones mind, combined with many other things I've been noticing, it surely does. What are your thoughts on what this means?
Well, what do you think it means?

isaiah 19:24 - in that day israel will come to be the third with egypt and with assyria, namely, a blessing in the midst of the earth, 25 because jehovah of armies will have blessed it, saying: blessed be my people, egypt, and the work of my hands, assyria, and my inheritance, israel.

my jw visitor left me a copy of the 2006 print of the book "the bible: god's word or man's?
", and i intend to provide him with my analysis of it.. i notice that the book was written in 1989, and the dates of the references suggest the book has not been updated since then.
am i correct?.
the same ten are written on our heart!!
Which ten? there were 3 different lists of the ten...
hey,.
i'm hoping some on here, maybe realizing that what the bible really teaches, no church or religion has it.
your learning and working hard to uncover it's true message.
Sheesh, ANOTHER person that's figured it all out? You're like, the 5th one here today.
And you are right about one thing, the God of the OT is not what people think, he was a re-hashed Caananite god that was ONE of the son's of god, Baal's big brother, so to speak, that the Israelites commandeered for their own use.

what must be the case if christianity is true?.
that the highest created being, known as satan or the devil, led an angelic rebellion against an omnipotent omniscient omnibenelovent omnipresent god, and expected to win--which makes satan out to be pure evil and dumber than a box of rocks.. .
Please elaborate.
I forgot my watch today

Why wouldn't Satan rebel? he has free will like everyone else.
The idea that god gave his followers free will is a joke, man. "Do what I say or die, cockbags!" is not much of a choice at all.
if jws don't have the truth; if there is no paradise earth; if there is no end of this system; if death is all there is, then what hope do we have to look forward too?.
Some folks prefer the comfort of a lie, rather than the truth.
"I love you, baby."
"I'll call you back."
"I'll tell you before I c..." ....uh, nevermind on that last one.

How can we know for sure what is THE WORD and what is TRUTH ??
As the wise Obi-Wan once said..."The truth depends highly upon your point of view"
if jws don't have the truth; if there is no paradise earth; if there is no end of this system; if death is all there is, then what hope do we have to look forward too?.
For the "polar-opposite" beliefs, only one can be true.
False dichotomy, neither has to be true.
if jws don't have the truth; if there is no paradise earth; if there is no end of this system; if death is all there is, then what hope do we have to look forward too?.
In the grand scheme of things, living 70-80 years is nothing. Why live at all then?
Because if you do it right, it's kinda fun. Use that logic on anything and see how silly it is?
"Why earn money at all, I'm just going to spend it."
"Why enjoy this meal? I'm just to digest it and have to eat again"
"why have a good time in bed with this girl? It's just going to end and then I'll get dressed..."

I'm just confused about how you would recognize the WORD, were it not for the OT and NT. I would prefer a Bible with the true parts in Green or something. Or better yet, a SECOND book by God, in which he clears up a few things. It would be a best-seller.
He did. It was written in giant flaming letters on the side of a mountain....it was "Sorry for the inconvenience."
