i found this quote in the march 1st wt particularily sickening...the april 16-22 study, paragraph 4. i won't reproduce the scriptures for you... section name: the happiness of those in the light or really the happiness of those in the organisation.

(isa 26:1,2) these are the exultant words of people who trusted in jehovah.

faithful jews in isaiah's day looked to jehovah, not to false gods of their fellow countrymen, as the only real source of security.

(Isa 26:1,2) These are the exultant words of people who trusted in Jehovah. Faithful Jews in Isaiah's day looked to Jehovah, not to false gods of their fellow countrymen, as the only real Source of security. Today, we have the same confidence. Moreover, we love Jehovah's "righteous nation" - "the Israel of God" (Gal 6:16; Matt 21:43) Jehovah too loves this nation because of it's faithful conduct. With his blessing, the Israel of God has "a strong city," a citylike organisation that supports and protects it

After hearing that I thought, "does Jehovah God love the 99.999999% of us or what???"

Here's the only thing i've seen that I consider weird. I'll reproduce an email of mine for you all.

But before that i'll fill you in with some details. In Australian folklore there is a creature called the Yowie. It's described as half human - half Ape, between 4ft and 12 ft tall, omnivorous, known to attack and kill humans*, kill livestock, raid orchards for fruit, or sometimes do harmless window visits on unsuspecting victims.

You Yanks call this creature Bigfoot or Sasquatch in your country.

* Not all Yowies are dangerous as some have been known to be harmless/benign/playful.

The Yowie is supposedly only folklore but there's been hundred's of sightings since 1788 to this current day. See the website http://www.yowiehunters.com for more details.

Here's the email:

Hi!,
You might have read my posts and thought that i'm a skeptic, well a long time ago I thought I saw something that you guys call a Yowie. When I was aged 3-5 (i'm now aged 22) I used to live in Canberra and cos it was cold in winter we used to go chopping for wood. Well, one day about 1983 my whole family (mum, dad and me) and 2 others went chopping for wood in a forest about an hours drive from Canberra (we went chopping at that same site every month or so). I remember on this occasion while the rest of the party was chopping and collecting wood (mum was watching them), I went to have a rest (got bored easy then) in the car (car was about 30 feet from the tree line and a fair way (about 50 metres) from the rest of them (Don't quote me on distance cos i'm hopeless at it)). After getting bored after 5 minutes, I opened the rear passenger side door facing the forest while I was laying down down on the seat. I gazed into the forest to see a creature about 20 feet in from the edge of the clearing. Well this thing saw me (took about 2 or 3 seconds to look at me after I opened the door. It had been gazing at my parents and friends as they were cutting sick with chainsaws and axe's) and stood and stared at me. I didn't feel threatened or scared. I'd describe the creature as about 5ft tall, heavy set, dark chocolate coloured hair, magpie coloured eyes (maroon - blood coloured), face was sort of like a gorilla's (I nicknamed it "Gorilla-man" and "Monkey-man" after I saw it). It was very ape-like yet had more of the form of a human. I didn't believe what I saw. I used to like Apes (still do) when I was younger (I used to have a monkey as a teddy bear (I called it monkey). I knew my parents had a camera in the front seat so I got up and reached over (it was an XB Falcon) and got the camera. I took 3 or 4 pics out of the opened car door, in the direction of the thing (I didn't look I just clicked and pointed. but after taking the pics I realised he was gone). I haven't really checked the pictures but I remember that they didn't have "it" in them. All it was was a picture of half a car door and forest
I've never told this story b4 to anyone and even now i'm confused and still don't believe I saw it.
Thanks,
From AK

look up when darius started reigning and you get the picture why they'll never mention these scriptures ever.. anyone got any others?

Randawg: Oldest trick in the book.

Look at Romans 16:1-21 it's Paul speaking. Look at verse 22 it's his secretary speaking. Does that make Paul and Tertius the same considering its the same as in the last chapter of Revelation?
