if the israelites had animals to sacrifice to jehovah in the wilderness, then how come their god jehovah had to give them manna so they wouldn't starved to death?.

Ultimate Axiom

Somewhere and somehow there is an answer for every Bible question

Yep, and the answer to this one is simple. They couldn’t eat the animals because they needed them to sacrifice and burn to Jehovah. They had to burn two lambs a day (Num 28:3) plus an extra two every Sabbath (Num 28:9), plus two bulls, one ram, seven lambs and one goat every new moon (Num 28:11&15), and they had to repeat that after the Passover (Num 28:19 & 22-24) and Festival of Weeks (Num 28:27 & 30), and during the seventh month they had to slaughter a grand total of 75 bulls, 17 rams, 119 lambs and 9 goats (Num 29:2-38).

That’s an annual slaughter of 105 bulls, 32 rams, 873 lambs and 24 goats. You sure wouldn’t want to be a lamb back then.

My Bible question is, Why?

who needs a press secretary when the president details what is happening every day to keep us informed?

Ultimate Axiom

In the UK his reputation for recklessness hasn’t diminished. He appears to care more for the American economy than he does for the American people. He’s going to get America back to work by Easter because it’s a “very nice timeline, very nice” – well good luck with that. I always thought he was a moron until someone pointed out that you have to have an IQ of at least 51 to qualify.

Jehovah's Witnesses Mistaken Ideas About What The Bible Teaches

by Vanderhoven7 in

let's add to the following list.

jws are mistaken when they believe the bible teaches:.

1. that their leaders somehow represent the faithful and wise servant.

Ultimate Axiom

Their teaching that Jesus put an end to the need for his disciples to keep the Jewish Law

Not sure the book of Hebrews would agree with you there Cofty, but then that was written by Paul and not Jesus.

Islamophobia & anti-Semitism

by The Fall Guy in

the muslim council of britain and uk jewish organisations want the uk government to enshrine into law their perceptions of what kind of speech constitutes islamophobia or anti-semitism/hate crime.

should british christians follow suit?

in the movies & on tv we constantly hear actors shout out, "jesus christ.

Ultimate Axiom

the Quran and other islamic holy writings declared hate speech and banned

Don't leave out the Old Testament, it's full of hate speech.

The famous liars

by days of future passed in

i was talking with my sister and the subject of the wt using rahab as an exemplary example of theocratic warfare which is of course, lying.

when the wt uses her, they fail to highlight the fact that she was a temple prostitute and an unbeliever when she "saved" the spies.. i said you know, the wt doesn't use the most famous liar as an example.

that would be peter of course.

Ultimate Axiom

Lesson: Even in the face of death, always be honest.

Really? Perhaps someone should have told Isaac, "So Isaac stayed in Gerar. When the men of that place asked him about his wife, he said, "She is my sister," because he was afraid to say, "She is my wife." He thought, "The men of this place might kill me on account of Rebekah, because she is beautiful."" (Gen 26:6-7)

jw.org is on collision course with russia.

the may wt study edition is full of prophesy related to the time of the end and what we have read so much in isaiah and jeremia bookstudy publications.. they found their enemy again.

jw.org needs enemy's to exist.

Ultimate Axiom

Don't bee too had on the Dubs, after all, as far as the bible is concerned 2000 years is "soon", so 140 years of saying "soon" is quite scriptural.

The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet (Rom 16:20).

You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord's coming is near (James 5:8).

The end of all things is near (1 Pet 4:7).

And as far as the OT is concerned, "soon" could mean over 3000 years.

In the truth

Not strictly true Sea Breeze, 2 John says it in verses 1 and 4. And 3 John says it in verse 3, 4 and 8. But then John's stuff always was a bit on the weird side.

Can You Name ANYTHING That Jehovah’s Witnesses Have Been Right About?

by minimus in

friends

regarding prophecies, i can’t name one thing jws have been correct about.

as a matter of fact nothing stands out to me that shows the witnesses have the truth..

Ultimate Axiom

If we’re just talking about prophecies, then the Watchtower has never got a single one right. But they have got no end of them wrong, so even by their own definition of a false prophet they fit the bill perfectly. If we’re talking about doctrine, things are not so clear. Insofar as it can be said that the bible teaches anything, I think, on balance they are probably right about hell, the immortality of the soul, and quite a lot more of the more fanciful Catholic doctrines like transubstantiation etc. There was quite a long thread on this subject some time ago, although I’m sure it’s not the only one on this site.
