  Angel of the True God

  by StarTrekAngel in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i usually open posts such as this one with disclaimer for the atheists/agnostics out there.

  i respect your position and what i tried to do in posts like this one is discuss the bible, wether you believe the stories or not.. i believe it is well known that in jw doctrine it is thought that no one has ever seen god.

  this teaching is also supplemented by the accounts of moises, where jehovah told him that no one can see him and yet live to tell the tale.. i, however, was always puzzled by some of the grammar in the bible where it seems to imply that god appeared to people.

  It says no one can see god and live. And the answer is simple. The Bible is full of contradictions.

  Jesus The Perfect Reflection Of The Father?

  by JW_Rogue in

  2. beliefs

  so this week's wt study was all about jesus and the miracles he performed.

  according to the study this proves that god wants to heal mankind in the same way.

  because as we all know jesus is a perfect reflection of his heavenly father.

  i have a lot more info on this. Hopefully I didn't confuse you more.

  You didn't, you just didn't describe any god I am familiar with. Who is this god and where can I read about it?

  Won't get fooled again ...Moon Landing.

  so i was fooled by the witnesses.

  what can i learn from that?

  not to accept things at face value but to seek out opinion and different view points.. hence my question " do you believe man landed on the moon?.

  Quality Thinking - Warning: Long Post Ahead

  by Viviane in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  recently, several threads have had some debate about logic, evidence, critical thinking and skepticism.

  i wanted to write a post discussing those things, hopefully to clarify what those things are, why they are important and how to use those tools.

  first, logic, at its core, is simply a method for how to reason validly, how to draw conclusions based on a premise.

  Prophecy in Daniel: A last Fierce-looking King

  by Kosonen in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  there is an unfulfilled prophecy in daniel about the last king that will be broken without human hand.

  the prophecy says he will be fierce-looking, deceptive, efficent in his doings, smart and causing ruin to many.

  and he will exalt himself.

  At this moment Donald Trump seems to be very similar to the description in Daniel.

  Donald Trump is not a king, therefore rendering the prophecy moot with regards to him.

  Unless I am mistaken and you know what a slacker I am and I trust you to correct me if I am, weren't there 3 version of Daniel? and the modern bible has the least crazy sounding of the 3?

  There was Daniel, Daniel with some extra stuff, then an addition to Daniel hundreds of years later. The modern Bible is an amalgamation of all three.

  There is no prophecy in Daniel that has ever been fulfilled.

  With regard to this prophecy, I do not know of any king now ruling that fits this description.

  You should have quit while you were ahead. This image entered my mind while reading your recent posts to Viv:

  Please. I have standards.

  Vivian you've got a lot of patience and tenacity you'd make one hell of a politician. LOL Not meant as an insult.

  I am tenacious for sure, probably not on the patience...
