EVERYBODY! IS THERE GOOD LIES?

by whathehadas in

we know that jehovah/yahweh cannot lie, and that he hates a lie(pr 6:16-19).

but according to his word, it is okay to do it pertaining to his purposes.

of abraham, isaac, rahab, and elisha(gen 12:10-19,26:1-10,jos 2:1-6,jas 2:25,2 ki 6:11-23).

No. Lies are lies.

Poll Question: Would you personally want to live forever?

by The Berean in

not i ....

Lieu

Sure, just so I could go explore the universe ... there's only so much on earth to see and do.

Now if I had to stay in one place and listen to one group of men yap forever, then No, I'd rather stick a gun in my mouth and blow my brains out.

"Unconditional love"...is there such a thing?...i am not sure........

by oompa in

jw
friends

that phrase is on this site a lot....and although i have been judged a bit by my old friends......i also do not think i can have friends without conditions......like if i had a friend.....and found out he was beating or abusing his wife.....esp if she was also a friend....that would be a "condition" where he would no longer be my friend....so what does it mean...what about you?....oompa.
