Just noticed something else that proves the Bible is made up.

exodus 9 then the lord said to moses, go to pharaoh and say to him, this is what the lord, the god of the hebrews, says: let my people go, so that they may worship me.

2if you refuse to let them go and continue to hold them back, 3the hand of the lord will bring a terrible plague on your livestock in the fieldon your horses, donkeys and camels and on your cattle, sheep and goats.

4but the lord will make a distinction between the livestock of israel and that of egypt, so that no animal belonging to the israelites will die.?.

The way it is explained in WT 2006-1-15 WT

When Pharaoh was told to let God’s people go, he sneered: “Who is Jehovah, so that I should obey his voice to send Israel away? I do not know Jehovah at all and, what is more, I am not going to send Israel away.” (Exodus 5:2) As a result, Egypt experienced these blows: (1) water changed to blood, (2) frogs, (3) gnats, (4) gadflies, (5) pestilence upon livestock, (6) boils upon man and beast, (7) hail, (8) locusts, (9) darkness, and (10) the death of Egypt’s firstborn, including Pharaoh’s son. Finally, Pharaoh let the Hebrews go. He even urged them to leave!—Exodus 12:31, 32 The diff is a Pestilence in Plague 5, and Death in Plague 10. They failed in elaborating the animals being affected in the 10th plague in the article.

Wow, Bella, What a terrible painful experience that must have been for you.

All the best,

It is similar to the account of Lot, when the two visitors(Angels) stayed at his house, and the city inhabitants of Sodom pressured him to give up the two visitors. Lot offerred up his two daughters.

Apparently, the custom in those days was to offer safety and security for your guests. Their life was considered more important than your household. This was covered under being Hospitable. The Bible has some ugly things in it, and this passage is definitely one of them. It may be there to show the mental state of what a person would do under duress. It's not a recommended practice, just history.

Appeal Against Elders Decision... Can Anyone Advise..

by Almond in

i meet a 6 years baptised jw girl.

we planned to marry here in philippines ( no divorce here }.

judge told me he can do the marriage so we livived together to be married.

Quarterback

Almond, you have a sticky situation.

Your fiance is disfellowshipped.

You are free to remarry on scriptural grounds, but not legal grounds. This pledge of faithfullness, I would be surprised, may apply in your case. If the Elder comes back and tells you that it doesn't, then that is your answer about that loophole.

Go home and hug your fiance, and tell her that you love her forever and you both will ride out this crazy world. Then when the planets allign, you will get that paper.

Cheers and please send me an invite to the wedding, eh.

I'll bring you a great gift, and I love Karoake.

Black pudding is blood pudding. Never tasted it.

Don't think it's served at Bethel.

Any new partakers this year???

by DATA-DOG in

i just wondered if anyone was going to partake this year?

when i learned ttatt, it became obvious that the wtbts was not god's organization.

it became obvious that if the bible was true, the wtbts's teaching on the "anointed" were false.

Quarterback

I'm gluton intolorant, so that was my answer right there.

Well, BOTR, there was that war way back in 1812 that we fought against the Americans, and we won. We're really sorry about that.

There are some hockey games and some Baseball games that we beat you Americans at, but we're not apologizing for those.
