  Who said that Satan is energy? The Bible says that he is spirit. Who said Satan would be destroyed? the Bible says in Revelation 20:10 "And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

  Watchtower's view of the Death of the Christ

  by FirstInLine in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have never quite been able to put my finger on it.

  there was always something in the way the watchtower presented the "passion" (although they have never called it that (?))..

  if you look in the "live forever book..." you may remember the picture of the old fashioned scale in which a naked adam is on one end and christ, or a watchtower depiction of him, is on the other.

  Don't you guys get it? The WT says that Jesus died so that you have the oppertunity to work your tail off! The bible says that Jesus did all the work for us on the cross!

  The question that has to be asked now is this:

  Is the Jesus of the New Testament made to seem as a fulfillment of the Hebrew Scriptures though clever manipulation of the Hebrew Scriptures, i.e. the purposeful mistranslation, misquotation, misapplication of verses and even the taking them out of context for Gentile theological purpose?

  DevonMcBride

  The question that has to be ANSWERED now is this, Jesus asked: "Whom say ye that I am?" or

  δὲ αὐτοῖς· ὑμεῖς δὲ τίνα με λέγετε εἶναι; ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ Πέτρος εἶπε· τὸν Χριστὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ.

  Luke 9:20

  Where did evil come from?

  by laurelin in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i'm new here, i only just found this site the other day so i don't know if i'm repeating something that has already been covered.

  i'm sorry if i am.. can anyone help me on the scripture in genesis 2v9.. it says that god created two trees, the tree of life and the tree of knowledge of good and bad.

  these were put into the garden before adam and obviously before adam and eve sinned.. if this is the case, does that mean god created bad?

  Tatiana How does the giving or making a law, make you a participant in the crime? Does that make all our law makers, in our governments guilty of the laws they put in place? I believe God created evil when he gave the law in Genesis 2:17. How does that make God guilty of breaking His own law? D Dog

  laurelin I believe God not only created evil, he decrees it! He didn't just create evil, he controls it perfectly to effect his perfect will. It is part of his creation. To believe otherwise, is to say that life and the evil that is in the world has no meaning. It would also mean that God is helpless to stop it. Some say that evil disproves God! But the fact that they can recognize it (evil), proves God exists. For some reason people can't seem to come to terms with the fact that God can create evil, and control it, without participating in it. D Dog

  What kind of a "religion" would force a family to make this decision?

  I know you're in a tough spot! I'll be praying for you. I don't have a religion, I have a relationship with the Creator of the universe (Jesus Christ).

  some people say that jws are very good at what they do.

  they are highly trained in their doctrine.

  one website said that they would blow the average christian away in an arguement.

  AMEN! freedom

  I don't think JWs know there Bibles at all! If they did they wouldn't be JWs. They don't even believe the Bible. They only believe what the org says about the Bible, and that is mostly a bunch of lies.

  I thought the movie was good too! Has anyone read any of Luthers' books? I think "Bondage of the will" was a pretty good one.

  What God Really Wants

  by Farkel in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i am thoroughly conviced that if the bible is to be believed as it is written, then god has gone out of his way to want all humans to be atheists.

  he goes out of his way to convince people he couldn?t possibly exist, and if he does exist, he wants no one to follow him.

  with the exception of the books of job, daniel and ezekiel almost all the other books of the old testament are full of gore, murder and genocide either from god himself, or upon the direct orders of god.

  Have you read "THE CASE FOR faith" By Lee Strobel?

  It handles most of the issues you bring up here.
