Hey, Regarding the "Resurrection" thing and the WT denial of the Mt 27:51-53 incident...

by FragrantAddendum in

so according to bible.

elisha's bones were there when jehovah resurrected some other dude.

jesus could heal from a distance by power of god.

FragrantAddendum

god wanted people to know that jesus was the one appointed by god to lead the people

the signs were undeniable

the resurrection of those faithful jews moved those who witnesses it

even a pagan roman officer had to acknowledge god's power

"truly this was god's son"

especially if they were not disciples of Jesus in some manner. Explain."

jesus didn't just heal people who were his followers

he raised the widow's son without knowing him

he raised jairus' daughter without knowing her

he didn't require people to be his followers for him to help them

god is not partial

and neither is his son

Alteration of Revelation 3:14 in the 4th century to support the emerging Trinity doctrine

by slimboyfat in

in an earlier thread another poster asserted that there is no evidence that revelation 3:14 played a part in the 4th controversy that led to the trinity doctrine.

this was claimed as evidence that the description of jesus as “the beginning of the creation of god” in the verse was not understood to mean that jesus was god’s first creation.

the scholarly greek–english lexicon of the new testament & other early christian literature 3e (2001) by bauer, arndt, gingrich, and danker, in its latest edition states that “first creation” is indeed the probable meaning of the greek phrase.

Since when do we know what God looks like?"

i didn't say that you knew

Could you provide a source for your claim that the catholic church hid fragments? (a reliable one)

we know this messenger is jesus because he looks so much like his father

with the rainbow

and jesus is the one who received the scroll in the beginning of the revelation

he was the only one who could open it

also revelation shows it is at jesus' command the execution of jehovah's judgments depicted in revelation are carried out

("and when he cried out, the voices of the seven thunders spoke")

Watchtower August leak: details from reddit user

by ukpimo in

from reddit.. a summary of changes: .

we are all sinners, so we have to be reasonable how we punish sinners.

if elders and congregation do not quickly help someone come to be reinstated they would be imitating satan the devil, not jehovah (yes that actually is what is said in the tagalog version in translation!

the entire wt hierarchy are noxious weeds

FragrantAddendum

that was an awesome grammar breakdown, @aqwsed, thank you🙂

so again to sum up...

the text is clear that

when jesus died

god did some signs to make it clear jesus was his son

one of the signs was a really big earthquake

one of the signs was the temple curtain ripping in two

one of the signs was a bunch of faithful jews being resurrected in a manner similar to that with the elisha's bones resurrection thing

the army officer attending jesus' execution and some others witnessed it

and said "truly this was god's son"

later after the sabbath those resurrected ones entered the city

and other people saw them too, for a witness

and matthew wrote about it

Who is this Guy?

jw
friends

the ra is underway and there is a common thread through the first day.

they have a "presenter" who comes across as an educated historian handling early bible fragments and translations as if he knows what he's doing.

the impression given is that he is an unassailable font of all knowledge, with his rich scottish accent he prints himself as across as professor gravitas.. i find this disturbing, we have no idea who he is or what if any his qualifications are to speak such with authority.

haha, whenever i see the sign of the horns...

i think it's hilarious

that anyone today would want to be associated

with the catholic church

considering they hid

those manuscripts all those years

talk about freakin hypocrites

all the religious institutions are a bunch of frauds

the ones who claim to be "god's channel" or "popus maximus" or some other type of benefactor

are the worst blasphemers of god's name

stupid pope wearing special robes like he's some kind of king

same with gb and their fake fds title

🤮🤮🤮
