  "By myself I have sworn, my mouth has uttered in all integrity a word that will not be revoked: Before me every knee will bow; by me every tongue will swear."

  Now how would this prophecy be fulfilled? Certainly not through God's display of power, men are sick of other men abusing it. They will rather die than give in to a God abusing his power. All their life they suffered from their fellowmen because of it. But how will it be fulfilled that "every knee" will do it? Through mercy and redemption? We will see.

  Books that make you go hmm....

  it's occurred to me that i have been reshaped by the books i have read, taking my new knowledge for granted, and forgetting that those around me have not been on the same journey.

  as a consequence sparks fly, as iron sharpening iron, as we strive to understand each other (or to insist that we are not the same).

  there are a few books that stand out, as i refer to them over and over again.

  Crisis of Conscience - Ray Franz "humble" sharing of experiences helped me see things that deep inside I knew was wrong but can't put my fingers on.

  Mere Christianity - Written as a result of public radio talks given by C.S Lewis during WW2. This also mirrors the mans journey from atheism to christianity and his arguments behind it.

  JW preached to me not knowing I'm still in...

  so i was working at my 2nd job today in a store and i was the cashier for most of the day.

  it's been about 2 weeks since i've been to a meeting & i hadn't shaved so i had a somewhat hipster-ish stubbly beard going on.

  also my hair has gotten slightly longer, nothing noticeable to the world but something that would turn a few heads at the kingdom hall.

  this has been a subject that has been explored by many secular scholars today.

  bart ehrman is one of them.

  the divinci code had this to say about why the gospels were chosen:.

  If There was a Cosmic Pain meter...

  by cofty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  imagine that it was possible to precisely measure the amount of suffering in the world at any given moment - a cosmic "pain meter".

  decide for yourself what the unit of measurement would be.. we can only imagine a fraction of the combined suffering that is being felt right now.

  physical pain, emotional despair, grief, desperation, loss, terror and hopelessness.. of course if there is an omniscient god then he knows to the last iota what that theoretical meter would read right now.. the bible contains a number of answers to the question of suffering - ever since the babylonian exile one popular answer has been to blame his nemesis the devil, "we know that we are children of god, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.

  Man must at last wake out of his millenary dream and discover his total solitude, his fundamental isolation. He must realize that, like a gypsy, he lives on the boundary of an alien world; a world that is deaf to his music, and is indifferent to his hopes as it is to his sufferings or his crimes - Jacques Monod
