No room for debate then. Why is it that you believe most JWs are faking it to avoid dis-fellowship? You can pm me on this one because I believe I have hijacked this thread for a little too long now. The Christian concept of grace is what keeps me hanging around the Christian board, maybe...

No I don't actually, if I did then I myself would want to be a JW. All I'm saying is, from a Biblical POV majority does not rule... so being in the 95%+ is not going to save anyone. I did not. You asked me which version of Islam was the right path, and I told you it wasn't my call to make - I...

Why is it ironic? We're talking about Bible here, and it's quite clear from the scripture that the majority (broad gate) are often in error, whilst the minority (narrow gate) are said to attain eternal life. I'm simply illustrating how it might not be wise to take comfort in being in the...

Being in the majority (95%+) isn't so comforting in light of Matthew 7:13. :( There are those who have spent their lives studying evolution, yet they often run into Christian creationists who will disagree with them...

Re: Babylon the great Sure Dor, I'll have to quit bsing you because you're the alpha male. Right? I love you too. .

Re: Babylon the great Never heard of the twelve elders myself, but do you think they conjured up their doctrines from thin air, or did they derive them from the Bible? To be completely honest I can see, even in the King James Version, where JWs find Biblical support for ALL of their...

Re: Babylon the great Simply stating Joshua that there are people on both sides of the fence who sincerely believe that they are quoting in context. To say that Mee's main reference is the Watch Tower is a tad bit unfair seeing as his posts are littered with Bible quotes... There's not a...

Re: Babylon the great I might be Muslim but that doesn't mean that I'm out to prove a contradiction. Relax brother. And what you said about 'context', I hear Mee wishing for the same thing...

Re: Babylon the great Yes he does, Mt6:9 "OUR Father in the heavens..." Joh14:28 "the Father is greater than I AM"

Ah, but YOU wouldn't be YOUR own father and YOUR own son at the same time... but then again, you're not God ;)

From what I understand, the earliest manuscripts omit certain verses throughout the New Testament, and when those verses are found in later manuscripts their authenticity becomes somewhat doubtful... or spurious. Well, it's not as if God wrote the Bible with his own hand. Men have been...

Levites didn't exist during the time of Melchizedek, neither did the law, I think the link between Jesus and Melchizedek is less to do with lineage and more to do with their dual-function as Priest AND King.

However, the name/word IEHOUAH is in the Greek text. In 1530 C.E. English Bibles had the word IEHOUAH, but seeing as 'U' in English was pronounced as a 'V' when used as a consonant it was only a matter of time before IEHOUAH became IEHOVAH. The next development was the 'I' to 'J' development...

You can find anything on the internet... http://www.ushmm.org/wlc/article.php?lang=en&ModuleId=10005394 http://www.holocaust-trc.org/Jehovah.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Jehovah's_Witnesses http://www.religioustolerance.org/witness10.htm Jehovah's Witnesses would not get...

The angel Michael, who's name means "Who is like God", is someone we should be comparing to God then?

Are you aware that Jehovah's Witnesses were sent to concentration camps in Nazi Germany, simply for being what they were? What you just said only applies to the Western nations... in other countries across the world they suffer the same persecution that you would.

[/COLOR] I'm sorry Terrence but I'm not finding where it says that all men hate God. I can see where it says all men fall short, but even in this condition we are still capable of loving God. Why does God command us to do something which we cannot do? Is it to show us how...

And if one of these people doesn't want the label "alternative christian" attached to them, can they still post in the Christianity section? I don't believe many of these would want to be called "alternative" any more than you do, don't you agree? I suppose we could resurrect one of the...

Not true. (can you show me the verse?) Do you know what the most important commandment is? Do you believe God would command us to do something that we obviously couldn't do? Or did he only command us to do things we are capable of doing? You're very young, and Zealous, I'll give you...
