Lett stated in the clip that " CT Russell looked no different than other pastors...the beard gave him the look of a father figure".

This line stood out to me. Code speak for moving forward with JW becoming mainstream.

wonder if all these changes would have been possible if hardliner AM3 were still a member of the GB

Sanchi, Morris' sacking is indeed beginning to make complete sense

hello my friends,.

here are some encouraging scriptures for the day:.

revelation 21:2 i also saw the holy city, new jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from god and prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.. hebrews 11:10 for he (abraham) was awaiting the city having real foundations, whose designer and builder is god.. revelation 21:24 and the nations will walk by means of its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it.. revelation 22:1 and he showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, flowing out from the throne of god and of the lamb 2 down the middle of its main street (of the holy city).

What do you say about this ? :

Could Jehovah God abandon his original purpose with mankind?

Hi kosonen

Jehovah actually already did. In the beginning, according to the scriptures, man's place was on Earth...but after a series of unfortunate events and errors and their subsequent correction, he allows human beings into heaven... people like Paul and the other apostles...those who were selected at Pentecost...was this God's original plan? I don't think so. This was all part of God's "correction". Paul and everyone else would never, as far as we know, have been allowed into heaven had things remained as originally planned as there wouldn't have been a reason for it to begin with. There's also nothing in the scriptures that would indicate that those going to heaven are ever coming back to Earth, it's their permanent dwelling. Again, this wasn't the original plan.

I would argue that there are more scriptures alluding to mankind residing in "heaven" rather than on Earth in the future.

richard dawkins revealed that he celebrates christmas on radio four's today programme.. here is is quoted as saying: .

'i am perfectly happy on christmas day to say merry christmas to everybody,' dawkins said.

'i might sing christmas carols - once i was privileged to be invited to kings college, cambridge, for their christmas carols and loved it.

For Stephen Hawkins to celebrate anything remotely associated with religion, which Christmas most certainly is, makes him a hypocrite lol.
