By the way ... The Anointed First Century Christians also served in the "Roman Army", even as Officers ... case in point ... Cornelius, a Roman Centurian ... who was never instructed to resign his Commission.

See my reply to alamb, above.

Where do the scriptures say that Cornelius (remember him, the officer) had to resign his position before baptism, or after for that matter?

Where does it say that he didn't?

Don't mistake me for a JW sympathizer.

I didn't.

I refuse to convert to a religion that was so eager to label me apostate for questioning their beliefs

Now come on ... out with the rest of it. You were NOT disfellowshipped (if in fact you were disfellowshipped) simply for harboring diverse views. I was known to disagree with the 1914 doctrine, and yet I wasn't disfellowshipped.

but as far as the flag issue goes the red white and blue is no longer the official flag of the US.

The UN flag doesn't fly above the US flag. And for that matter, not a single one of the nations have relinquished their sovereignties to the United Nations, much less the United States. When the 8th King does arrive though, it will have come into existence as the result of the nations relinquishing their sovereignties to it. -- Revelation 17:13, 17.

We need to look at the un flag because it is what all the kings of the earth worship and the US is subject to the international laws that it legislates even though the US is often in violation of those laws.IMO .

I think that there's no question but what the UN will be the basis upon which the coming One-World Government will arise. However, with regards to the United Nations it's been said, "There is no world government yet." There won't be a One-World Government until all nations are truly willing to submit to a central government -- which necessarily requires that the majority willfully relinquish their sovereignties. Those unwilling to do so will be forced to.

They are eagerly persuing the concept of a 1 government world and the very idea of other countries involved in the US government is unconstitutional.

Yes, the idea of a "1 government world" has been kicked around for quite some time now. And it is due to become a reality during the time of the present "king" (namely the 7th) -- the "king" the world now lives under.

I know your mind, and I know that it's not open. In such a case, why should I waste my words on somebody that can hardly appreciate them? -- Yadirf.
Simple, you're the one who brought up the subject silly. -- Perry.

But the fact is you criticized Those Baptists for having an American flag flying on their website. (A sight, incidentally that brought a flood of tears to my eyes which I had to fight back.)

I said: "Certainly a nationalistic bunch, aren't they!"

Is that not true? Yes it is. Does the Bible approve of a Christian being nationalistic? No, it doesn't! Are the Baptists true Christians? No, they aren't! ... because they're living out of harmony with what the Bible reveals regarding a fundamental subject, namely, the source of man's rule? Satan, NOT God, is the source of man's rule. Man's rule resulted from rejection of God's oversight, and goes as far back as the Garden of Eden. Man's rule is merely TOLERATED by God, for a while, for a period referred to as the "gentile times" (KJV) or "appointed times of the nations" (NWT). In light of what the Bible reveals, no person can rightly argue that it's okay to support/advocate/fight-and-die for any nation -- nations which are nothing less than man's rule. The Scriptures show that the Dragon is the one having authority over the 10-horned wild beast. The 10 horns picture ALL existing nations which collectively rule the world as a 7th King. The United States therefore is, like every other nation, part of the Devil's political system which received its authority from him, NOT God. Whether you like to hear that or not is not the issue. In view of such facts, it is easily seen that a true Christian has to assume a neutral stance when it comes to politics and strife between nations.

America is neither the beast nor the dragon in Witness lore, ... it is the lamblike beast, appearing lamblike in that its speaks of peace and democracy, and indeed professes to follow the Lamb, Christ.
That is all I said.

You're only partially correct. According to the WTS America is one-half of a "dual world power" -- the 7th head of the wild beast. But, as you can see by my comments above, the WTS has an adjustment in thinking to make on this point. Too, the two-horned beast of which you speak has yet to make the scene insofar as its appointment to that post. So, yes, there are MANY adjustments that the WTS is in for. And that's precisely what my signature scripture is all about.

By the way, why didnt you mention that America is the Lambbeast?
Were you trying to conceal something??
Yadirf. Stop lambasting the Lambeast.

Actually, you had said: "Where does the Bible say America is the false prophet??"

As I've already noted, the 2-horned beast of Revelation 13 isn't here yet. Although the 2 nations that will comprise it is no doubt already on the scene they haven't been assigned (deputized) that duty yet, and won't be until after the collapse of the entire world's governmental system, as pictured by the death of the 7th head of the wild beast. As to which two nations those 2 horns represent one can only speculate about right now. I personally think that the United States is most likely to be one of the two.

Which of those two types of people would Jesus take, Yadirf? Which one?

What would Jesus say about this? That's in fact what you're really asking, isn't it?

Perhaps this will answer your question:

Then another of the disciples said to him: “Lord, permit me first to leave and bury my father.” Jesus said to him: “Keep following me, and let the dead bury their dead." -- Matthew 8:21-22.

Now, isn't THAT one heck of a controversial statement? Wow, I can hear the objections already.
