Maybe the Jehovah of the OT would destroy eveyone except JW's at the big 'A', but the Jesus of the NT will temper him down and spare ALL the good people.

god-of-the-gaps. Should we or shouldn't we fiil in the gaps with God?
by KateWild inscience imo does not have all the answers.
when i discover gaps in science, it's easy for me, as a temporary measure to fill in the gaps with god.
i do this until i have learnt something new.. what about you?

Kate
Could it be that you, like most JW's, have always relied on the org to fill in the gaps? The org has always done that with their own WT opinions. The org has a long history of supplying answers or solutions to matters in which it has no real knowledge or expertise. So they guess and try to put a "bible" spin on it and find some unrelated scripture to support their blather. I use to buy it. But going forward;
I can live with questions that can't be answered; but I cannot live with answers that cannot be questioned!

I'm with you Blondie on how too, too often the org uses the OT to provide examples. Not a well planned out idea if one really looks at the examples cited. For example, paragraph 6 uses Josiah. He was probably a good person. BUT WOW! "Beginning at the tender age of eight,...." He was a child! Someone else was either making his decisions or heavily influencing his decisions. If one reads the Biblical account of Josiah in 2 Chron. 34 ,35, and 36 you will discover some very interesting facts about Josiah that WOULD NOT QUALIFY as a good example for a Christian today.
1) Chapter 34:1 says Josiah was 8 (a child) when he became King. That isn't very realistic for our time.
2) Chapter 34:3 says Josiah was "still a boy" in the eighth year of his reign. So he was 16 (8+8=16). BUT according to the Bible, "still a boy".
3) Chapter 34:1 and Chapter 35:24 tells us Josiah died at age 39. Why didn't Jehovah protect examplary Josiah from the Egyptians' arrows?
4) Chapter 36:1, 2 says his 23 year old son, Jehoahaz, began reigning in his place.
4) So Josiah was 39 when he died and his 23 years old son Jehoahaz takes over which means Josiah was about 16 when his son was born.
5) So 'evidently' Josiah was only 14 or 15 when he got married or as the Bible puts it, he was "still a boy". (Wonder how old his wife was.)
6) So is 14 or 15 a good age to get married if you are good examplary JW?

The Israelites were also 'really good at killing people'. They were justified right?

The hard part for me to swallow is the JW explannation that Jehovah would be so petty and hold a grudge for 6,000 years over this one act of disobedience. The JW theroy that Jehovah has allowed all the pain and suffering for the past 6,000 years to prove a point is sheer foolery.

Question about recent love bombing....
by mind blown infor more years then i'd like to count, one jw relative has never called to see how i was doing.
today she calls out of the blue, asks how i am, and if there's anything she can do for me.

Sanctify Gods name
by Crazyguy inok so thats what jesus said we must do, so the question at hand is, does going around the world telling people that gods name is jehovah does this really sanctify his name, really????
so if i went around my town and told every one that satans name is lucifer will this make satan holy?
is this what jesus was taking about jw's, think about it.

I agree with Billy the Bethlite. I also find interesting that Jehovah put 'Babylon the Great' in charge of making sure that we have the Bible today. All those councils if the Catholic Church during the 4th century C.E. that canonized our current Bible. As JW's we accept that Jehovah preserved his WORD intact despite using 'false religion' to do the job. I wonder why Jehovah didn't see to it that his NAME was preserved down through the centuries. Is he ashamed of his name?

A few years ago, my wife asked me this same question, Who else today are doing Jah's will? She was very concerned since I had become more vocal about the WTBTS and particularly the 'self-appointed' GB. I answered by saying, "How does it glorify Jehovah when we are directed by the GB/fds to preach things for decades that are not true, suchas, 'this generation'. She got my point.

Interesting how Jehovah saw to it that his word was so faithfully preserved for all mankind (by the Catholic Church) but he couldn't see to it that his NAME was faithfully preserved in his word. Was he ashamed of his OT name?
