Asalaam Alaikum SA.
more questions...
are we allowed to know the plan for the rest of the universe? is everything "on hold" till the human problem is sorted out?
is there new scrolls to be found or do we have enough?
does isaiah 52:14 have to do with christ's physical apperance? does he not look like a typical human?
what is adam and eve's fate?
does elijah return?
thanks for the responses.
since you personally cannot choose if you will be bapitzed by holy spirit and fire, how do you "apply" to be baptised by the holy spirit and fire?
what do you need to do in your life to be noticed in a good way by god and his son so that they will consider you worthy of this baptism?
does god's son get irritated when we say his name incorrectly, and how important is the pronunciation especially in prayer?
if you are not jewish, does that eliminate you from being the elect? what if you don't know if you are?
how do i wash my robes in christ's blood if i don't get baptised with water?
how do you know when you've cleaned the inside of your cup?
how often is prayer nessesary? i always feel like i'm bugging god, like he has more important things to do and more people that need his help than listen to me ramble on about my life. he already knows what i'm doing and he knows my heart and so how often should i bother him to say "hello and thank you"?
were christ and adam "brothers"? were the "sons of god" the ones chosen to be the forefathers to civilized worlds like adam was to earth? are there other "son of god" that we don't know of?
i have too many questions. please ignore the wolves.
thanks.
i'm thinking way outside the box here.... i looked up my thread title before starting this thread and guess what??.
no one appears to have ever considered this question before.... i've seen far, far, far too many people of european/british isles/african/american extraction defending this regional middle-eastern 'god', without realizing that their ancestors would never have willingly consented to give up their own deities to worship this interloper thrust upon them, usually at the point of a roman sword... or occasionally for trading advantages, as in the case of many of the heathen viking - norsemen.... so.
what if the bible had never existed?.
you might notice my post had NOTHING to do with beliefs or religion.
seems like you just want to fight.
and not just with me.
do you believe that god cast them off and totally rejected them?.
.
after reading romans chapter 11 and examining the history of the jews since 1917 i think the wtbts has distorted doctrines regarding israel..
i wonder....
if i killed God's son,
would he just leave me alone afterwards?
i don't know if this is correct logic, but it is no streach of the imagination.

strange question.
the question should be,
"What if humans never decided to write down history?"
(remember the bible is many little scrolls from different time periods in one book.)
the answer is -
Then we would NEVER learn from our mistakes.
after carefully evaluating the my current life situation, i've come to the conclusion that returning to the hall will be best for me.
i simply just don't fit in with the rest of the world.
i don't drink, smoke, have sex, go to clubs, listen to worldly music, watch movies, or gamble.
so on judgement day when god askes you why you returned to the jdubs, you will say "I couldn't find my place in the world and so i went back to the jdubs."
then he might ask, "what about all the blasphemy they are responsible for? don't you realize by sideing with them you will receive the same judgement?"
then what do you say?
think about the eternal consequenses you face in the decisions you make now.
those under law are tried by the same law. all jdubs carry bibles and so all jdubs will be judged according to the words in the bible.
if you failed to understand the words in the book, it's YOUR fault. after all, you are also the one preaching what that book says.
remember, just because you don't agree with something the jdubs do or say, if you are a jdub you will be considered a jdub on judgement day.
did you read about Babel in Jashar?
i thought that was amazing information.
do you notice how it is hard to remember all the information to tell to others? as if they have to read it for themselfs to "get it"? maybe it's just me but i got excited about the info when i read the book.
i suggest to you also "The First Book of Adam and Eve", "The Second Book of Adam and Eve" and "The Book of Enoch - R.H. Charles."
there are several translations for these old scrolls. especially for enoch. the occult really likes "The Book of Enoch" because it gives lots of information about the fallen angels, and even though the book is VERY CLEAR on the consequenses for occult spiritism, they thrive on the information. there is a few complete forgerys out there but you can spot it in the first few chapters.
the book titles in the first paragraph are the legitimate ones in my own opinion. you do your own research. they are all available on the sacred texts website. watch out for the "other books of enoch" on the website....

new york) -- harold camping is "mystified" and "a little bewildered" that the rapture did not go as he predicted, an associate of the california preacher told abc news.. .
tom evans, a board member of camping's family radio international, said that camping's wife told him her husband is at their home in oakland and has no intention to speak or issue any statement on sunday or monday.. .
i wouldn't be suprised if this all amounts to something big. and it will have been pre-planned.
like the backlash from his followers and the rest of society might trigger a new attitude about organized religion....
or each one of these false prophets is another "boy who cryed wolf" and soon we won't even pay attention when a real prophet shows up?
or people involved in a cult will decide to look at thier own beliefs to see if they are legit.
thank god that jesus warned us about this guy and others like him.
"LOOK! I HAVE FOREWARNED YOU." - Jesus.
ladies and gentlemen, i believe this is a PROPHESY FULFILLED!
if the book is a lie...
somebody devoted their time to fool me,
for what purpose?
i didn't pay any money for it.
it gave me more details about events that nobody can prove or disprove and the details don't change the base story. the details add to it, makeing the story more a reality to the reader.
so the book of jasher made my faith STRONGER. and that made me a better person.
so if an ancient writer wrote a book of lies that make me a more moral person and helps me believe in god more, what's his aim?
to keep me a god fearing human? what is wrong with that?
read the books before you believe they are lies. the ring of truth is always present.
my brother will be getting one of those quite soon.
he's getting ready to marry the "worldly" girl he's dated for 4 years.
he's not been to any meetings in 4 years and has no plans on returning.
it is sadly impressive how stubborn some witness become.
they are the biggest drama queens out there. they always uphold their society influenced ideals over being decent human beings.
To miss out on your childs wedding to make a statement for your religion takes some serious dedication.
they think they will be commended by god someday for standing firm when thier son or daughter married a "non-believer".
crazy one dimensional thinking. they are so scared about the "consequenses" of your actions that they don't want to be any part of it when god or jesus shows up. thier fears become thier punishment to you. and its all due to them being "programmed" that way by the jdubs. only jdubs will be saved in a jdubs mind.
my folks never met my girlfriend of 7 years.
my parents attempted to not show at my brothers kindom hall wedding because they didn't approve of his choice of wife. she was approved by the congregation enough to allow a KH wedding, but she didn't stand up in my parents eyes. they did show up at the last minute because the elders pressure on them, then my mother threatened my bros wife to be and then we proceded with the wedding. they didn't go to the reception.
jdubs are crazy, unintelligent, unreasonable, lack common sense and basic human decency. they are robots and have been programmed. if your programming failed, be thankful.
good luck!
