  jehovah's witnesses... who sent the star of bethlehem?.

  the watchtower teach their followers that the star of bethlehem was sent by non other than satan... however as we take a look at the scriptures by comparing spiritual things with spiritual we begin to see that the star of bethlehem was not sent by satan, but used for the glory of god.a seasonal message to end the year.. watch now here :.

  The smallest known star right now is OGLE-TR-122b, a red dwarf star that's part of a binary stellar system. This red dwarf the smallest star to ever have its radius accurately measured; 0.12 solar radii. This works out to be 167,000 km.

  The smallest theoretical mass for a star to support nuclear fusion is 0.07 or 0.08 solar masses, so smaller stars are out there.

  Don't you just love Google?!

  So, the smallest star is still much too big and too HOT to be close enough to earth to mark out a single house in a small town or village on planet earth as it is roughly the size of Jupiter.

  perhaps all major airports will eventually employ their own industrial sized drone, operated by a trained/authorised pilot who can track and pinpoint the nut-jobs who cause such disruption and possible catastrophe..

  Simon, your backyard, unspoiled by man, is beautiful.

  My decision to move to Fuerteventura came after a WT talk on how the speaker imagined "paradise earth" to be and the picture he was painting was not my idea of paradise at all. My idea of paradise was the golden sands and aqua seas of my recent holiday.

  I decided I didn't want to wait for Armageddon and when I found out moving there I could be mortgage free and have a swimming pool and money for a brand new car and a whole year before i needed to find a job a For Sale sign was erected in our front garden and I car booted and ebayed everything we weren't taking in a suitcase.

  9 weeks after my holiday we landed in El Matoral, me, 2 young children, 14 suitcases and a bike!

  £750 worth of excess baggage. Lol

  A decision I will never regret.

  No modern teen will want to live without the internet and so nothing, not even promises of tame pandas can substitute or counteract the prospect of eternal life without social media and games. The GB are not so stupid they can offer a promise of modern tecnology and living life like the Amish has no appeal whatsoever to anyone I know.

  Our territory was supposed to be worked approximately every 2 weeks. It was nearer monthly but that was 20 years ago.

  I've had Mormons here twice and JWs 3 times in the last 10 years. Hardly urgent.

  I cannot see to what purpose they would deliberately ruin so many travellers holiday plans. What are they hoping to achieve?

  Back in the early 80s I used to joke if my parents died before the Big A then toxic people get a free pass but even if I am the best JW I can be I still might not get thru and that seems very unfair. My father died this year but my mother is still clinging on so even if I was still in Armageddon came too late for me.

  It is incredible how all Gatwick flights are cancelled until further notice because of maybe 1 or 2 individuals. Who knew it would be that simple to disrupt an airport.

  This situation must have been considered a possibility before now but no solution or plan of action appears to be in place to deactivate or immobilize the drones.

  Is it a protest, a terrorist act or someone got their Xmas present early and just having fun regardless of the misery and inconvenice caused?

  Many Jehovah's Witness Leaders and Followers Customize Their Religion to Suit Their Needs

  by new boy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after observing my jehovah's witness friends and family members for over 50 years it became apparent that the vast majority of "the brothers and sisters" pick and choose the rules and laws that their church/organization what them to follow.. tough the society may state these admonitions as definite "do's and don'ts" many of the church followers put these admonitions in the the "grey zone.".

  the reason being jehovah will give them special dispensation.

  yes, for some odd reason jehovah will cut these people some slack for the same things he must punish others for.

  In Spain the ruling was ordinary publishers could sunbathe naked on a nudist beach but not pioneers.
