could someone turn to revelation 9:11. i am always hearing of only two angels being named in the bible, but now i am seeing this one.
the text reads from mine:.
rev 9:11 - they have over them a king, the angel of the abyss.
Ianao and RR,
Since the two of you are heavily involved in Biblical research, I thought you could shed light on a question I have. Are there Bible translations that are considered better than others as judged by unbiased Bible scholars, or at least as judged by those with limited bias?
i saw this interesting post on h20.
most publishers are unaware how things really work many times in the back room of a kingdom hall.
sure there are lenient elders, many do try to show mercy.
Xandit,
I found seven versions of the Bible that were translated in the last half of the twentieth century. They all have the same meaning to John 8:7 that I referrred to above. These are:
1. The Living Bible
2. The Phillips Modern English Bible
3. Revised Standard Version
4. Today's English Version
5. New International Version
6. The Jerusalem Bible
7. The New English Bible
Which new, good version or versions are you referring to that translates this differently?
i recently read a post on the net regarding how often men think about sex.
i started to think about how often i did.

I'm happy to report that all's quiet on the home front. My wife liked the washing machine I got her to replace the scrub board she was using. For Valentine's day I'm getting her a new lawn mower to replace the push mower we bought from an Amish family.
PS
I kind of feel sorry for an "in your face" type newbie when you, I, Waiting, and Redhorsewomen all show up at once.

When my wife punishes me I just say "Beat me, wip me, make me write bad checks."
Thomas Wolf quote: My wife was willing and able to do both.
hey y'all,.
for whatever reason we find ourselves not working on this upcoming monday - have a good one, ok?.
i cannot bring myself to utter the words "merry christmas" just too foreign.
I know full well what RHW is saying here. Once you realize that the Lord God Jehovah is not going to strike you dead and the demons aren't going to possess your couch, Merry Christmas is really fun to say. If you're afraid, start out by saying it to a sales clerk, rather than an elder.
Now regarding your husband and the tree deal. I have some advice for the guys out there: When you are wrong, promptly admit it to your wife. When she's wrong, don't say a word.
Words of wisdom from your old uncle Larc
as we all know the society has very strict guidelines regarding conduct between the sexes.
in the cong i grew up in, it was so small-minded that if you were single, and seen talking to a member of the opposite sex, you were presumed to be in some sort of relationship with him/her.. sex before marriage is out of the question, with heavy petting also looked down upon.
dating is a serious affair, with all onlookers expecting engagement/marriage to be the outcome.
Waiting, Sometimes when you live with a woman it's a good idea to take off to the trees. Why do you think men take up golf, hunting, and fishing?
RHW, I think the words you have just spoken fullfill the scripture that says the light will get brighter and brighter until the perfect day.

Waiting,
oxymoron: smart woman
Repeat after me: Merry Christmas! Shout it out loud. You'll feel so good. Better yet, say it to someone else. I promise I won't tell.
I always wanted to be a financial adviser for atheletes. Many end up broke, because sociopathic sharks eat 'em up. I have a friend who lost 5 million to a shark. Fortunately, he had a forgiving father. My friend is a son of the founder of Winnabago Corp.
By the way, I did not get a classical education. Mine was more of a money grubbing education.
You know, I've only been posting here for a few weeks, but I'll tell you what. I haven't had this much fun since the eighth grade picnic.

RHW, Did I say stuck?? No I did not, and there was no problem: he brought a six pack and was doing just fine thank you.
My told me the other day that we had to clean the bathroom. I asked why, we weren't moving.

Sometimes I wanted to leave 5 minutes early myself. I found that the best thing to do was to ask if there were any questions. The room would fall silent. If a student was dumb enough to ask a question and prolong the misery they would be soundly flogged once they left the room, I'm sure.
Regarding affluence, I retired at 100% of pay, of course that's easy to do when you make 10 thousand a year.
Best compliment I ever got from a student: she asked me if I was a stand up comic. She loved my humor. Most of the time the others did to.
As far a gifts for my wife, I am a warm sensitve man. I was going to get her Firestone tires for her Ford, but I thought that might be sending a mixed message.

Well I'll be dang, I juss thunk up another quote. Robert Benchley said, "Marriage is the relationship between two people. One who wants the bedroom window open at night and the other who wants it closed."
