yeah, but which god? that is the point of this thread. if you believe in the bible, and god, is the god of the bible the only god. or is he part of a collection of gods who didn't get their own book?

thanks for the tip seedy. so, then, if jehovah was the god of one nation. who are the gods for the other nations? if he is stronger than all the other gods, minus el, are we to follow him? i want to cover all my bases. ;)

clash- please explain gen3:22 "...here the man has become like one of us..."

or the fact that there were other people outside of the garden of eden. at gen 4:16 and 17. "...cain went away...and took up residence in the land of fugitiveness to the east of eden...cain had intercourse with his wife ..."

whose people were these in the land east of eden

i guess we would have to presuppose that the bible is the word of god. if we do, then we would believe in jesus, jehovah (nwt version) and the other gods. (most other versions). - i need to learn the original languages of the bible to come to a better understanding of the translations.- all gods being a spirit form. if you don't believe the bible is god's word - then we are creationists or evolutionists. if we are creationists then there is a god, but is his word the bible? if we are evolutionists then we don't necessarily believe in god. i don't know what i am but i'm leaning toward believing there are multiple gods and yahweh is the god written about in the holy scriptures.

another thread listed on this forum about 'the other people', demonstrated the possibility of other gods. if that is true (and it sounds plausible to me) then do we necessarily benefit from jesus sacrifice? or do we need to find out what the other gods require?

too many gods, so little time.

moscow--on may 22 the golovinsky district court ordered the russian government to pay for a philological-psycho/linguistic expert study to be conducted on the literature of jehovah's witnesses published in the past ten years.

"this is nothing more than a determination to find experts who will support a ban on jehovah's witnesses," stated artur leontyev, defense attorney.

good for moscow!!!!!!!!

so, we all know our sun sign, right?

welll... your moon represents inner emotions/inner self, and as far as inner person goes, is a very key sign.

it also shows the role your mother had in your life!
