  Are we all missing the true 'MARK' of the Wild Beast?

  disclaimer: hubby & i have been watching a 5 dvd documentary on the 'secret's of the founding father's' we're not sure if we believe everything they talk about but here is some interesting things to think about..... revelation mentions that the 'mark' would either be on the forehead, [for everyone to see] or, on the right hand [if you make a fist, it is hidden] rev also says that no one can buy or sell without this mark.

  the wtbt$ isn't too clear on what they believe that mark is, so.... what is one thing that we cannot buy or sell without?.

  money!.

  You may be able to do that on sites like Ebay, or a swap meet, or other places like that, but here in the U.S I challenge you to walk into a grocery store with a custom knife, precious metals or a gemstone and try to trade/barter for a weeks worth of groceries.

  Can you pay your property taxes to the government with beaver pelts?

  Post the receipt on here because I would like to see that.

  You cannot do that everywhere!

  MONEY!

  The U.S $1 bill has gone basically unchanged since 1935 when Roosevelt [Well-known Freemason] put the great seal and the other symbols on there.

  The 24 Elders in Revelation are NOT the anointed......

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  today i just thought of this.

  i had written a thread about the false teaching of the anointed being resurrected already.

  anyway, the wt assumes the 24 elders in revelation are the 144,000, and the assumption is merely because both sit on thrones.

  Ok, have to change my thoughts on my earlier posts regarding this subject....

  I was just reading in my Bible Encyclopedia and it talks about the 24 PROPHETS of old, starting with Moses, from the Old Testament. I just find this interesting how they correspond these men to the 24 elders.

  Just a thought

  Good one! Interesting, the headquarters is in NYC, U.S.A. NYC has one of the top libraries in the country, why is the U.N one better? PLUS, I can use their library on-line and I didn't have to join as an NGO member

  while everyone has been bickering back and forth, i decided to do something positive to move forward.

  as most of you know back in jan our family marked us as apostates and started shunning us.. so i wrote to all of my congress-people and told them what is going on with the jw's.

  i told them how they are breaking up families, teaching the children intolerance, etc.

  If anyone hasn't seen it yet: http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/members/private/251237/1/Shunning-video-listed-on-Richard-Dawkins-FB-Page

  One little baby step at a time, Or better yet, 1 little thorn in the side of WTBT$.

  Betterdaze: Plus, if anything comes up in Congress like the new Child abuse law they are trying to pass BINGO! Hopefully she'll remember the child abuse info I mentioned.

  Every little thing helps friends.
