first off the book of enoch or at least some of it's writings we're found among the dead sea scrolls.
this to me proves that this book was as important to the jews back then as any other.
in the book a few things i noticed.
I just learned there was writings found in Ugarit that mention the phrase “Son of Man” the deity that is so described in the writings is none other then Baal Hadad. Baal later is identified as none other then Zeus.
Was not the New Testament written in Greek? Was not the oldest compiled writting of the Old Testament written in Greek? Sanchonithean ancient writer confirms that Zues is Baal and Cronos is El. Jesus said he is the “son of Man”.
I know of one near centraila washington up for sale or sold in the last couple of years.
jesus taught he would not use an organization on earth once he leaves the stage (mathew 7:12, 21-23; luke 6:38 …etc) this is because god respects the free-will of everyone and would not force anyone to follow certain path, which means system of things would climax in the situation described in 2tim 3:1-5.. yet those who want to lead a life of ease are not left in the lurch.
there is a verse of paramount importance that jesus spoke of: ‘everyone acts/reacts according to his passion—beneficial or wasteful’ (mathew 12:35) which means there is no basis for certain expected response, towards your action, from others.
this is interesting, because we often get disappointed when others do not appreciate the good we do or are not grateful to us.
Thanks for the relevant scriptures.
not sure where i picked this up:.
self explanatory science and medical advice from the faithful and brilliant servant class in brooklyn________________________________________thomas edison, the inventor and electrician, of phonograph and telephone fame, has been experimenting with the new light "x-rays.
" and has succeeded in taking a photograph through oak eight inches thick.
Look that’s old light we have knee light now and here it is. You can have cows blood if you need it for a blood transfusion, no on human blood. Again yes on cows no on human.
how does god dividing humankind and fixing the boundaries of the peoples “according to the number of the sons of israel” make any sense if the nation of israel did not even exist yet?
(genesis 10) "it makes little sense for god, shortly after he dispersed the nations at babel, to have based the number of geographical regions on the earth on the family size of israel, especially since there was no jewish race at the time (genesis 10 table of nations).
this problem is compounded when one considers deuteronomy 32:9. what logical correlation was moses making when he wrote in verse 8 that god "set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of israel" and then made the concluding observation in verse 9 that "the lord's portion is his people, jacob his allotted inheritance" (niv)?
Is this a double post??
in the area i live in the pacific northwest, three spanish congregations we're merged into two a couple of years ago and in the next month or so four english congregations will be cut down to three.
both situations happened because of lack of growth.
a few years ago, i would never have imagined spanish congregations disappearing or merging but it's happening.
Yeah I’m also in the PNW send me a PM too!! Thanks
4 zombies at the door.
i come out with the nwt and ask who wants to talk about the bible.
if you don't want to talk about the bible why the fuck did you knock and counting time.
Wow they don’t even talk about the Bible anymore just push people to JW.borg?? What a fucking Joke of a cult!!!
how do jws (rank and file) know when to commence shunning the victim of an internal judicial proceeding ?
what direction does the elders manual give to start the congregations participation in shunning?
when did you most recently see this process initiated in a hall you attend?.
If not dfd the they’ll publicly reproved you or have a marking talk or spread a bunch of rumors. I didn’t get the marking talk and was never dfd just publicly reproved. I said nothing to know one other then the elders and only mentioned a couple of things to my wife yet the rumors were flying left and right. The way they treat people that have any issues it’s amazing any one ever goes back! I didn’t !!

daniel 10:13,20 prince of persia.
deut: 32:9 “when the most high divided the nations, when he separated the sons of adam, he set the bounds of the nations according to the number of the angels of god.
Daniel has issues of accuracy as well as the use of Greek words proving to most scholars that the book was written after the Greeks conquered Persia. Probably much later like around the 2 BCE for the writer could not even get his history right and named The wrong guy as king of Persia and got his father mixed up for his son or vice versa can’t remember which.
Anyway the book of Daniel has lots of issues such as the statues with different mental representing different powers. Well first off the order of the metals down to the feet represent different ages of man being created in the Greek pantheon. Gold for the original men created by I believe Kronos called the golden age. After Zues creates the rest of the men on type after another until the legs of Iron men that become so strong they do away with the gods according to Greek myths. This is just more conclusive evidence that this writting we Call Daniel was heavily influenced by Greeks.
us prosecutors are reportedly considering charging 'el chapo' guzman with the killings of 6 us citizens and a dea agent.
"the first killings came on december 2, 1984, when four jehovah's witness missionaries, two men and two women, knocked on the door of a drug lord.
godoy, who was then also working as a body guard for ernesto fonseca, another guadalajara kingpin, said the missionaries were tortured and the women raped.
JWs are so damn gullible a few years ago in the US a couple of sisters shot and and in another case a sister was torn to shreds by a dog yet they still go out as if some damn angel is out there to help them. Delusional just plain delusional!!!!!
