i was watching oz re-runs on hbo.
everyone is prepping for a major prison riot.
apocalyptic scenes are shown.
Simple version...
God is a string stretched out forever. Anyplace along that string is a moment in time. As a human all you can see is your point on that string. But you must know that 2 inches back and 4 feet forward are all part of the same string at the same time.
i don't recall seeing any illustrations in a watchtower or awake magazine of jesus dragging a 300 lbs.
torture stake (in his condition) to golgotha.
do they really think he was capable of this?.
PSacramento I agree. He carried the cross beam. So the JW's are only half right. Yes it was a stake. A singular pole. But once you fix the cross beam to it, it becomes a cross.
there is no real recipe... but i can explain how to make it.. 1) hard boil 8-10 eggs, peel and shell then set aside.. 2) fry up 1 pound of bacon.. 3) in a pot, thicken bacon grease up with flour to make a thick paste.. 4) add about 1/2 to 3/4 a gallon of milk to thickened bacon grease.. 5) stir with wisk till bacon grease dissolves into milk.
continue stirring and slowly bring to a boil.. milk will thicken into a gravy...be careful not to scorch.. 6) crunch up bacon and add to gravy.. 7) cut up boiled eggs into small chunks and add to gravy.. 8) season gravy with salt and pepper.. pour gravy over biscuits, or hot cakes or even toast and enjoy.

ewww
no they havent..because they dont exsist.
who needs demons to do bad things on the earth when we have people doing horrible things to each other since the beginning of time.
demons are just an easy way to pass of the blame...pretty easy to do since no one has ever seen one.. its like telling people there are evil invisible tooth faries lurking around every corner.
They all look different. Some are very small some blanket whole continents. You have to know how to see them.
my name is frank and i posted in this forum many years ago under the avatar franklin j.. it has been a while and i could not access the old account, so i created a new one.
i am living and working in kuwait in the middle east where the islamic religion is everything.
it is like the watchtower all over again.
Playing in the sandbox huh? I did that for a while.
Being in the middle east gave me insight on what really is going on in the world.
Our culture in the states is like a teen girl with daddys credit card. All we care about is consumerism.
They still operate as they did when Muhammed was alive. They have a continuous group memory that spans thousands of years. Its in their DNA. So they are like a evil wise old man. The little girl with the credit card is gonna end up his bitch!
i was abused by my father growing up.
physically and emotionally.. as a entered my adult life i had next to no self esteem, in part because he didn't really attempt to help me get some because i didn't chose the career path that he dreamed for me.. 2 years ago i forgave him.
i let go of the anger that i had for him because i knew that when it was all said and done, he did what he did and i believe that he did his best.
Dont worry about forgiving the WT.
Realize they are imperfect and the monster they become wasnt the same lamb they started out with. I see the honor of its founding fathers. Not taking the churches boxed christianity. They became true bible students.
They have nothing to do with you and youre personal relationship to God. Dont let man ever get in between you and God. Youre life will be richer with a spiritual connection, you make with the the universe.
how did satan tempt a person who has no wrong desires?.
Anyone know who Mara is? Find that out and you find the root of this question. Ready.... Go!!!

Logic tempered wiith love.
Tempering relieves the stresses in the metal. That slight softness built into the metal actually makes it stronger and more durable. Thus is the power of love. God IS love.
several years ago when jws built a new kingdom hall in the area, they sold the old one to a pentecostal church!.
i thought, "now wait a minute.
they took a building dedicated `to the service of jehovah' and transfered title to one of the 'churches of christendom' to be used in their 'satan worship'???".
its just a building once they put it up for sale. they arent supporting christendom. they didnt seek out another church to buy it. thats just who the realitor got to buy it.
