Excellent Whynot no decapitations and you never got struck down by a bolt of lightning and the best part is the children had a great time and what`s wrong with that ?

May their be many more happy birthdays in years to come bringing joy to children.

Satan temping Eve. Had she not ate

by pleaseresearch in

being the loving god that he is :).

how do you imagine this playing out.

let's say eve didn't eat and so we didn't fall into sin.. what do you think god would have done with satan and his demons?.

In Eve’s account in the apocryphal Apocalypse of Moses of her encounter in Eden with the Snake, she says that Satan, who is like an angel, seduced Snake and offered to talk through the Snake on his behalf.

Whatever made you think that Satan was involved in the Eden story?

Isnt this a contradiction in what you have posted ? Doug ?

“Christians” go to war and kill each other.

JWs refuse to go to war.

The God that Jehovah`s Witnesses worship was / is a warmonger that is undeniable from the first book of the Bible Genesis to the last book of the Bible Revelation.

Where he often condoned genocide using the Israelite`s to carry out his purpose especially in the books of the Old Testament.So Jehovah God was happy to use humans to carry out his slaughtering of humans then ,old men women and children.And his command not to feel sorry for them.

In the New Testament we have contradictions where his son Jesus Christ is portrayed as the Prince Of Peace and yet is depicted as the one who destroys all of his enemy`s in Gods War of Armageddon. Again old men young women and children and not to feel sorry for them .

And while Jehovah`s Witnesses don`t actually participate in warfare today they certainly condone it of the warmonger Jehovah God who is still intent according to the scriptures that Jehovah`s Witnesses believe in to annihilate the majority of humans on this planet and only preserve alive J.W.`s like he did in Noah`s day .

Jehovah God is a hypocrite and so are Jehovah`s Witnesses and for that matter so is Jesus .

Not too much out of the ordinary I`m afraid the wife and I spent a few hours down at the local club where I downed a few ales she had a champers ( wifey was the designated driver ) and we came home with $600 from the pokies /slots which put icing on the cake for the day.

We had a good day thanx for asking.

Well the funny thing is in 2011 at an airport bar in the USA I had to produce some I.D.before I was served a drink and my wife had to come over and produce her I.D. before I could take her drink back to our table ?

I was 72 years old at the time with grey hair and a grey beard which I still have

Moving Back to Chicago - Don't care

by LevelThePlayingField in

my wife was diagnosed with ms about two years ago.

we have been living in ohio for the last 5 years but were recently assigned to a new congregation because of the dissolving and sale of our congregation/kh.

my wife's symptoms spiked after being relocated to our new hall back in january.

smiddy3

I`m sorry that your wife has MS and that the forced move to a new Congregation has brought on an added burden of stress .

I hope the move back to Chicago eases up on the stress levels and that everything works out OK

I can only agree with what Dio... says above

I truly wish you and your wife all the best, and do anything and everything to make you both as happy and content as possible.

Take care the both of you.

John 3:16 "For God loved the world so much that he gave his only begotten Son" ...Really ?

by smiddy3 in

for four thousand years god never gave two hoots about the world of mankind that is suggested by john 3;16 and how do we know that ?

simply by looking at his dealings with mankind for the first 4000 years of his dealings with humans as shown by the "old testament".

1. god only dealt with a couple or a few individuals early on in the o.t.. 2.god only dealt with one family line whom he chose above anybody else .. 3.this family line the israelites became a nation whom god dealt with exclusively.. 4.to the exclusion of every other peoples on earth ,he favoured who became the israelites and he obviously had a hatred for any other people and was instrumental in trying to get the israelites to commit genocide on many occasions against these people who god had never taken an interest in .. 5.jehovah god on numerous occasions instructed the israelite`s/jews wipe out the amorite`s , the hittites ,the jebusite`s ,etc ,etc, and with the blessing of him not to feel sorry for them kill old man woman and child and do not feel sorry for them.. jehovah god actually gave the israelites /jews sanctions to commit genocide amongst these nations in the "old testament ".

1. God only dealt with a couple or a few individuals early on in the O.T.

2.God only dealt with one family line whom he chose above anybody else .

3.This family line the Israelites became a nation whom God dealt with exclusively.

4.To the exclusion of every other peoples on earth ,he favoured who became the Israelites and he obviously had a hatred for any other people and was instrumental in trying to get the Israelites to commit genocide on many occasions against these people who God had never taken an interest in .

5.Jehovah God on numerous occasions instructed the Israelite`s/Jews wipe out the Amorite`s , the Hittites ,the Jebusite`s ,etc ,etc, and with the blessing of him not to feel sorry for them kill old man woman and child and do not feel sorry for them.

Jehovah god actually gave the Israelites /jews sanctions to commit genocide amongst these nations in the "Old Testament "

So it sort of contradicts what is said in John 3: 16 doesn`t it .

Youtube videos doing the JW rounds. Gods name

by pleaseresearch in

so here in the uk this video is getting jws very excited.

now my mum actualy said it wa funny to hear jw music at the start and finish.

so i'm wondering if the watchtower had any input into this.

smiddy3

Jehovah`s Witnesses stated in their publications notably the book "Aid To Bible Understanding " that they settled on the name "Jehovah" because it was the name most commonly used in the world for God ?

And who would be the ones in the world that would be the most likely to use Gods name ?

No prizes for guessing it would Christendom and all its Scholars /clergy and bible translators ,authors etc,etc.

I attended a funeral not so long ago for a friend and one of the songs in the service had the name Jehovah a number of times in it and that was an Anglican service.

Also many years ago the WTB&TS put out a booklet about Conventions that was happening all around the world containing photo`s about the worlds religions and it was shown that many churches around the world in Christendom had the name Jehovah inscribed in stone on the buildings .

This was about the 1970`s-1980`s ? and it may have had to do with "Babylon The Great Has Fallen " theme ?

As well their are many translations of the Bible in Christendom that contain the name as either Jehovah / Yahweh or some other equivalent.representing the four Hebrew letters of the Tetragrammaton commonly translated as JHVH or more accurately as YHWH .

So they are blatantly dishonest in saying Christendom has hidden the name of God from their members .

Dutch House of Representatives formally requests the government to start an investigation re. JW child abuse

by Anders Andersen in

today the dutch house of representatives unanimously voted to petition the government to start an investigation into jw child abuse issues.. the request from the house of reps. came after jw nl refused to listen to repeated and serious requests from the government to start an independent investigation themselves.. now it's up to the government to either accept the request by the house of reps. and start an investigation, or refuse to do so and explain to the house why.

it appears the minister of justice is not unwilling to start an investigation though.... collection of dutch news items here.

smiddy3

Elders of Jehovah`s witnesses three of which in their Judicial Committees in Australia held over 1000 allegations of Child sexual abuse cases over a period of a few decades.

That is more than 3000 Elders we are talking about.

They obviously found grounds to rule against the perpetrator in many cases and either disfellowship them or restrict them from further activity in the congregation until they showed some remorse and/or repentance for their aberration behaviour

Yet all of the Elders failed to notify the Child Protection Agency`s or the law Enforcement Body`s or the Police that alleged Crimes had been committed against children

So all of these Elders failed in their moral capacity and their ethical capacity to provide protection for the most vulnerable ,the children under their care as shepherds to the flock .

They should be ashamed of themselves one and all.
