Good News of the Kingdub
by JH injesus said the good news of the kingdom would be preached, and then the end would come.
if you believe in jesus, then you believe in what he says, so there is an end.
second, who is preaching the good news today, like jesus said?

Will,
I've just seen your questions and try if I can answer them. It's been a long time and I've forgotten more than I remember. The kingdom being referred to is the earthly paradise ruled from heaven by JC and his 144,000 chosen.

NEW WORLD TRANSLATIO. WAS IT INSPIRED BY JEHOVAH.
by nightwarrior inwho wrote the new world translation.?????????????
as it has no author,no one is brave enough to claim responsibility for this particular interpretation of the bible.
whom is responsible for all the changes of scripture, no one will put there name to doing this.therfore if no one from the society claims to being the author ,is it because they have invalidated the word of jehovah and are scared that they will receive the plagues as mentioned in revelation.for adding to the scriptures or taking things away.

I beleve that Freddie Franz is responsible for most of the translating of the NWT.
I've been questioning lately the NWT's claim near the back of who wrote what books and the dates associated with them. I've got some books on order dealing with this issue, will post anything I find of interest.
Jehovah on crack, good one Scully. Maybe Him and Freddie smoked a pipe together.

This is so sad it's laughable. It's the small details that get me:
One group brought china and silverware. A lot of it was real fine china, and even some real silver
It's almost as if this person has never seen such luxuries.
Editted to add this second thought:
And one said "Beware of dog
Perhaps the sign should have read beware of God. But anyways where is the dog, don't tell me this person beleives non-witness dogs will be killed too!!Edited by - sargon on 15 February 2003 16:4:39

How did you imagine the end happening?
by DblOSmith ini always imagined it as being the sky turning different shades of purple and finally seeing colors i've never seen before.
loud lightening, thunder in all directions... i would hear god speak, then the sky would turn red, and i'd see angels coming down from the sky and devils go up and fight in the sky... kinda like in raiders of the lost arc.
it would last 40 years, then the earth would split and open all demons would be cast below, and then 2 weeks of rain will cleanse the earth and the paradise would grow from the ash and neutrient rich rain.. .

LOL @ Carmel.
I always liked this Frost poem: (fitting for Valentines day)
Some say the world will end in fire rain and ice,
From what I've tasted of desire,
I hold with those who fancy fire,
But if it were to perish twice,
I think that for destruction, Ice,
Is also great,
and would suffice.

Wonderful news about Iraq..NO NEED FOR WAR!
by freeman inwell it looks like we will be sending our troops home, as we dont have to worry about iraq retaining, creating, or using weapons of mass destruction anymore (wmd).
the iraqi dictator has sent a note to the chief u. n. weapons inspector informing him that he (has just now enacted legislation making wmd's illegal.
this wonderful news was announced by a gleeful hans blix just today at a televised meeting at the u.n.

Good on ya, Mate! another reason to admire the

not sure if this has already been posted - if so - sorry!.
to kill an american.

Because Americans are not a particular people from a particular place. They are the embodiment of the human spirit of freedom. Everyone who holds to that spirit, everywhere, is an American.
Gotta love it.
You probably missed it in the rush of news last week, but there was actually a report that someone in Pakistan had published in a newspaper an offer of a reward to anyone who killed an American, any American.
Scary.
Edited to add: Most people have nothing against the American people, it's always their choice of leaders and foreign policy that cause problems.

Narrow and cramped is the road leading ...
by whyhideit in"narrow and cramped is the road leading to life", right?
well with that quote, the witnesses have always justified the fact that they are still god's chosen people, even though they are not that large compared to other worldwide religions.
yet i was wondering something, if smaller is a sign of god's people, then how small is small enough.
