in genesis jehovah tells abraham he's going to nuke sodom off the map, but the more reasonable then god abraham says "please jehovah do not get hot with anger with me, but what if three men who are good ae found in sodom....." etc etc.
so here we have a god being given good, merciful advice from his servant abraham.....personally i would rather worship abraham, praise his holy name...jehovah can burn in hell!!!!

Ps: Speaking where the bible is silent are we?
007: that's the same impression I got when I read the first 5 books, Genesis seems to be more balanced, the rest is more blooshed and laws. I believe these are not the original accounts of Moses, they were burned and had to be re-written by Ezra.
i have questions about this book:.
is it still able to be ordered at the counter?.
would this be a book that many people that are currently jw's aware of?.
Teary Oberon: the reason why I ask this is because the KIT on John 1.1 differs to the Insight volumes regarding john 1.1 and I just wanted to know because of this if the KIT is still attainable, my other question was I want to know if anyone (I mean anyone) like a muslim/apostate could walk into a kingdom hall and ask for the KIT.
"Why would you overreact and impute ill motives to a simple and understandable question, especially if the person asking the question couldn't think of any practical reason why you would ever want a KIT? What do YOU have to hide?"
This does not sound like a book attainable to the public, if I ask for NWT or a Awake magazine nobody is not going to ask the question. I did ask for WT CD-rom a year ago, I never was asked why I wanted it and never received one. So are there any pre-requisites for ordering the Wathctower cd-rom?
I want to know so I can ask the barrister of the supreme court of New South Wales to see if this is legal.
Ps. I know you are a jw.

I dont think this will end how Mr Unthank would like but I hope I am wrong.
...or are you still terrified by the mere mention of that name?.
perhaps still doubting whether he exists or not?.
are we all forgetting one of the ten commandments lol
hello folks and friends ands pets,.
just a little message to remind you that the different versions of "crisis of conscience", by raymond franz, are available in pdf format in 14 languages(*).
it was a big work to gather.. .
I am taking your word for it, I previoulsy bought the pdf versions of ISOCF and COC from commentary press and the book COC from a local bookstore, I dowloaded the portuguese version of COC from your web site, but if I find that its still under copyright the file will be deleted.
THANK YOU!

Do you have authorization from the current author to do such a thing?
something that has always bugged me, paul teach about what we should do about the anti-christ, but was not early on the persecution of the early disciples of jesus by saul, who later jesus appeared and spoke to him.. .
isn't paul contradicting himself when jesus clearly spoke to one of the antichrist- saul/paul himself?
?.

again, on anderson cooper's show today, he had a topic of bullying.
i thought that subjec related so closely to the disfellowshipping practice.
I call it discrimination.

Thanks Atlantis, I just want to know if the Kingdom Interlinear Translation can be ordered through the kingdom hall?
i realize many on this forum are atheist, and theres many threads to show why.
some believe creationist lack knowledge or understanding and that we are too ignorant to realize there isn't a creator.. i have studied (not in depth) first year college science, and am studying medical/health currently.
i am also very interested in astronomy, and have learned a little in that area.
tec: what does Jesus sound like?
My problem is faith:
Many religions including Islam include some form of blind beliefs, therefore choosing a religion becomes more of a guessing game.
God, all powerfull all knowning did a terrible job in showing his teachings
We let the bible speak for itself and what happens? many christian type religions
Well, a person very close to be called me the anti christ, but how so? I never met jesus, I am not against him, and if jesus comes down as judge jury and executioner I have a very good excused as to why I based my beliefs more in understandings than in faith.
This doesn't stop me fromr reading old texts.
