"in heaven, the 144,000 corulers with christ will recieve authority to share with jesus in weilding an "iron rod" of destruction against all enemies of gods kingdom.

( rev 2 26,27) then, together with powerful angels, the resurrected anointed ones will follow christ, the warrior king, as he sets out to confront the "vast army" of enemies that is closing in on its prey - jehovahs people.".

But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.

Agreed Quelly, all of Revelation is symbolic.

Good find lost, the paragraph goes on to call it a violent confrontation. Oh dear.

God supported Neco instead of His faithful king

by opusdei1972 in

if you read the chapter 23 of the book of 1 kings, you will note that josiah was one of best kings of judah.

he did many good things in favor to yahweh-worshipping.

Been asked to share my experience at church!!

by quellycatface in

my vicar asked me if i and another lady would like to say a few words about our faith journey.. she said my story was a particular powerful one, what with the da'ing and subsequent shunning.

i can also choose a hymn or christian song.. i was thinking of romans 8:38, 39 to highlight the shunning and the other scripture ne of how true christians will be indentified, if they have love among themselves etc.

i need to look that one up exactly.. any ideas for content for further content??.

When I talk to christians about JWs I tend to say the problem is not that they don't love god, they're actually very sincere in this respect, it's that they don't really believe god loves them, so it's important to share that.

Goodbye JW net

forgive me for indulging in a goodbye but it would feel wrong not to,.

i hope the discussions and atmosphere here do not change for it is a bubbling brew of doubt, bravery and sincere hunger for answers.

these are healthy ingrediants for humans and especially for a jehovah's witness.. this forum offers not just the ability to ask without consequence, but it also offers the means to be real.

Hey snare, sorry to see you go, your knowledge of evolution has been really helpful to this exJW, even though I think most of your book recommendations are terrible! ;)

All the best for your future.

Romans 8 is a great choice!

I did something similar before my baptism and used Luke 15.

Evolution: A Satanic Theory

by cofty in

there is an excellent new article at jehovah's trumpet.... friends, the following article is not about masturbation, oral sex, anal sex, or homosexuality so it may not be appropriate for children.

please use godly wisdom when deciding if your child is mature enough to consider this material.

we are going to have a frank discussion about the theory of evolution.... .
