i've had a discussion with a friend concerning the gb or org being "inspired" or "spirit-directed" or a "prophet".
i found the great strings about claiming prophet status (particularly 04/01/1972 wt and 10/01/1982 wts).. it seems i recall a wt or other publication where they compared themselves to moses, or even jesus as the one channel being used by jehovah.
while i don't recall any claim of "inspiration", there are dozens using "spirit-directed organization".. interestingly, note the reference to jesus:.
I can't find any info on Seven Spirits of Jesus, only Seven Spirits of God.
Can anyone add more info ?
Interestingly enough the Bible warns of deceptions and false ministers .......
2 Cor 11;13-15
''for such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themsleves into apostles of Christ ....
Seven serious deceptions of Satan
1. false doctrine
2. lust
3. pride vanity and arrogance
4. lying
5. false dreams, visions and miracles
6. bitterness
7. lack of faith
first time i ever heard anyone say there was 'proof' of noah's flood.. very interesting,.
showed a trawler, where the team dredges regularly in the north sea - for animal bones, massive land animal bones, mammoths.. he said, originally, the bones were sent for analysis, and the dr stated, they were proof of noah's flood.. the north sea area was a land mass of dry grazing lands.
and it was very similar to africa.. many bones were found in london, of lions, hippos, etc ... when they were digging out the underground.. .
Comatose - if you actuallyread what I said, which I quite clearly stated I was caught off gaurd when I heard it.
So to comment on something you obviously have read and don't understand, or comprehend, is the height of ignorance, stupity and ridiculous.

16 therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat and drink or with regard to a religious festival, a new moon celebration or a sabbath day.
17 these are a shadow of the things that were yet to come: the reality however is found in christ.
18 do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you.
Matthew 15:14
'' Let them alone. they are blind leaders of the blind.
And if the blind leads the blind,both will fall into a ditch.''

ST have you heard of the book
The Scarlet and the Beast ?
think you would like it very much
i just want to share my thoughts on genesis 3:15.. we all know the position of the wt/gb/fds on this, that the woman represents heavenly organization (with annointeds, of course), the serpent satan and everybody that is bad.. but to me, the context says other thing.. god is cursing the man, the woman, and the serpent.. first, he starts with the serpent, and give it a pretty mundane curse: you are going to crawl.
and will have hostility with woman's offspring.. then the woman: you will feel pain when giving birth.. then the man: you are going to work hard.. from this curses, you can read they were pretty mundane.
simple put, they were curses.
I have read that Jesus was kept hidden away from the beginning and Satan didn't know he existed, hence the Sacred Secret.
until he came to earth to reveal all to mankind. The curse that God had put on the earth' was lifted by Jesus's coming, in preparedness for perfection.
To break up the works of the Devil, and prepare man and the earth for His coming. And bringing the earth back to how it was pre-flood.
But I can't see it could have any foundation, Jesus's existence being kept secret. any one ever read anything similar to this theory ?
hi folks.
i'm aware that there is already a thread on the newly-announced elizabeth mcfarland lawsuit, but i thought i would start a new thread for the benefit of lurkers showing the newly released news videos more prominently.. here they are.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfhrhrvm2c4.

steve - sorry if I sounded snappy, going through a really bad time with ex at moment
(God will it ever end) so, emotions are a bit all over the place.
I didn't mean anything negative towards athesist in general, just a few here that like the hubris,
and try and show off how intelligent they think are now, they have spent years reading books and formulating their own opinions,
then expecting everyone to know the same and agree. And if not, they get ridiculed.
Funny thing is. they know they are doing it, it has been discussed many times, heck, Simon even deicated a thread to it.
recently there have been a few threads where claims have been made alledging personal negative effects in 'real life' following internet activity on jwn and other ex-jw related sites.
discussion then ensues, aspects of which may include 3rd parties either disputing the truth or affirming the likelihood of the claim.
questions are asked.
phew ............ thank God, I thought for a moment someone was gonna be having a rant at me,
cos I mentioned a Dr who had the opinion of proof of noah's flood. so happy now, have had a very, very bad day.
Just been screwed over by a
Lying cheating, devious cunning, sly despicable, money grabbing, stuck up, pompous, biggest, bitch, that ever lived solicitor and her
equally charming client, my soon to be divorced ex-hubby. SCUM!
Don't talk to me about proof, lmao, the freaking charade I have been tied up in.
The more words a person uses,
and the more sickly the syrup, usually tell's me who is jumped up their ***** and think they are oh so wonderful,
They present a 'fake' personality (kinda like jw's), sends my alarm bells flying, the more intelligent a person tries to make themself sound, the wider I pass them by.
Oh, and braggers, god, I can't stand braggers, think they are soooo great.

Band - I interact with millionaires and tycoons all the time too. GREAT LIFE ISN'T IT. MONEY MONEY MONEY.
I wa told, by a british non national, in another country, many things about the 'freemasons of old'.
Just because they don't tell you their secrets, doesn't mean they do not exist.
Why is it when anyone tries to discuss freemasons, and their ancient history. People here start jumping up and down, but they do not offer any valid discussion points or topics.
ST keep it coming also check out the book 'the scarlet and the beast'
