Are Gods true worshippers on Earth today? If they are not JWs then who are they?

by Formerbrother in

is there gods true worshipers on earth today as jesus said there would be?

if they are not jws then who are they?.

who else comes close to being gods true followers today?.

prologos

Even in the earliest bible story, god did not take the initiative, demanding to be worshipped, but when Cain and Abel invented religion, he "liked the idea" (quote from Splane). Strangely, ABEL burned some of the meat that was piling up, (nobody, even dogs would eat it) , and god quoted Splane again ," like it" ( the carrion, carry on), and from there, the true worshipper story goes downhill.

On the bright side, God must be a creator (how else did all that stuff get here), and true worshippers, don't worship, wasting meat and vegetables and time. , but create, provide, they find out how creation works, and re-create.

Cold Steal: "--It would certainly help if you guys took a few theology courses before posting things like this.

You can't be serious, you believe in the talking snake story? I just wanted to pointed out the absurdity of it all,

but where is the sign?

maybe it should have a third sign?

don't worry, the lovely brothers and sisters at the deauville congregation want to say hello to caleb and sophia.

prologos

A lower echelon city employee allowed the witnesses to pay for the making and putting up of the CULT sign, but city council opposition questioned it in a session that was about tax increases for 5 star hotels, but the religion question was subject one, The Mayor defended the traffic department, despite the "obscure doctrines" of the cult. They ban the burka but almost advertise the Org on traffic signs? , weel, as long they classify it as a CULT for the english visitors.

At last something about JWs on a German news site.

by Driving Force in

for anybody who understands german.. http://www.n-tv.de/panorama/masha-16-jahre-zeugin-jehovas-article18689741.html.

it is quite rare that a german news site actually puts something up about jws, after all they are insignificant from a newsworthy point of view.

but i like the fact that they have put this up..

prologos

she says that when leaving, she realized, it was not "the world" but the witnesses that sapped her energy, well written, thanks for posting

TOH: "- wonder in what religious group she was raised - could not have been JWs if movies, music and wine were taboos.

She referenced the strict upbringing in her family, who, in the black and white world of the german soul, could have been more restrictive than official wt guidelines.

What Happens to Adam and Eve?

by Cold Steel in

in jw theology, what happens to adam and eve?

are they resurrected and become heirs to paradise on earth?

or will they become two of the heavenly class?

prologos

Whatever happened? they were tricked. Eve was told she would die if she so much as touched the fruit, she did and didn't. So Adam seeing that Eve had a magic, no-death touch, that she had neutralized that threat, ate, perhaps mouth-fed, did-not die that day either, lived ~930 years, but did not live long enough to find out from Peter that the voice had really meant 1000 year days. . big mistake, Adam should have requested the 7000 year creative day.

DEATH: How have you prepared? Funeral, cremation, donate body to Science?

friends

well, hell!.

i had dizzy spells and near-fainting and nausea for a few days, so why wouldn't i start thinking about death, ya know?.

am i just very lax in my responsibilities in having no plans at all?isn't that irresponsible?

prologos

Have made my own coffin, loosely patterned after the last late pope's, actively shopping for a burial plot, perhaps cheaper used, I mean second hand, and for upright position, (real estate always good investment, look at brooklyn sales) even if you have to move and sell. Do not take your death lightly, it is a glorious act, part of fulfilling your life's mission. Make sure you have the three survival means, genes passed on and legacy, well, you are recorded here.

October 1914? Really?

by sylvlef in

km august 2014, page 3 paragraph 6(article for this week's service meeting):.

"the month of october 2014 will see the 100th anniversary of the establishment of the kingdom.

for this occasion a special edition of the watchtower will be on this theme.".

prologos

One reason that this advance action of satan was not a big deal in Brooklyn was, that for American's it did not become a world war until they joined later. The pre-emted action by satan also re-enforces the wt's contention that somehow the 607 to 1914 time is fixed, even accepted by satan, so, if even Satan believes it, times world wars after it, we can be certain it must be right.

Latest News on Oetzi

by LoveUniHateExams in

i vaguely remember when the 5,000 year old mummy was first discovered in sept 1991. i was twelve.

he was quickly given the name 'oetzi' because he was found in the oetztaler alps.. my granddad had a book about it and after he died, i took his book home with me.. apparently, some scientists believe that oetzi died from an arrow shot and a blow to the head.. interesting.. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3795815/25-years-europe-s-oldest-human-mummy-alps-scientists-say-amazed-learning-5-300-year-old-corpse.html .

darkspilver: Thank you for posting that. Does not the Iceman look like Hitler, who was born not too far from the find, and : read the fine print at the bottom of page four: " Awake builds confidence in the Creator's promise of a new world--that the generation that saw the events of 1914 will not pass away. " With Oetzi and the flood dated the same age, why did he not float away? at least we know that Noah must have had copper tools. he must have spend more time sharpening them than actually working, if you know how long a finely honed edge lasts, and how hard it is to woodwork without them.
