Look, I don't do much on forums anymore but wanted to put one up here because wherever I go thoughout my day, many people I talk to have forgotten who the God of Isreal is. The Webster dictionary says this Je-ho-vah: In the Old Testament, God, the Lord: the common transliteration of the...
Hey Dor, What's up with thumping the Bible:confused: The Bible would be the most authoratative Book that we can possibly read, it's God's Word. Who says I can't understand the Bible without something else, I have alot of it memorized reading it everyday. Why so harshful attacking words, we...
On a serious note, the Witnesses study from whatever Bible people want to study from. The New World Translation does use Jehovah's name which is real cool and how the Hebrew translations were originally written:)
Witnesses quote from the New Jerusalem Bible and King James Bible and other Bible all the time. They would have no problem with that at all. Praise Jah you people...
Kindest Regards to you too Juan. Or should I say to you too3 Juan.
I always get a kick out of reading your posts as you have a kind humble way about it.
However, I think it even goes a little deeper. Man is not capable of ruling himself. We can say, don't kill or don't steal because you...
Hi:
God has wars because he has to fight off the evel one until he is driven out. His war will fulfill Bible prophecy and that is why I am neutral.
I can't picture in my mind Jesus loading a Canon to blow away another Christian who perhaps lives in another country where there is a war...
Good Morning CR:
Thought I would throw my 2 cents in here. God has abundant power. Man chose to rule himself when he didn't listen to God's command.
One of the commands was, "thou shall not kill". Another command was to love your neighbor. Us imperfect humans will at times decide to make...
Daniel 9:25 discusses the seventy weeks. In ancient Jewish times there were several references to a week representing 7 years. Plus if we use actual weeks nothing happened in those weeks/years. First we have to determine the starting point.
Nehemian 2:1, 5-8 the word went forth to rebuild...
Hey Ruhan:
Welcome to CR with your first post. Revelation is the exciting climax to the Bible. There are so many ties to the Old Testimate that it is the fitting conclusion to the Bible.
It so exciting that it was written by Jesus' closest companion John in around 95 AC, who John trusted to...
Sorry for such a long post, but here's my take on Revelation:
Here are a few dangers of following religion first rather then God in my opinion. We don’t always know what a doctrine or a council could put in place and that is why I think trust in the Bible and not a specific religion is...
Hey Dear Brother Glen (Bandit):
Chapter 18 in Revelation is the climax of the Bible in my opinion. I bought the Bible on CD's and had to play Revelation over and over until the message finally sunk it. Then I started to try and make appropriate changes in my life. The mind has to be open to...
Hey Bandit: Wow, it's already Spring, hope your doing well.
I think Chapter 18 IS the Revelation that is revealed to true worshipers of God. It says to get out of false religion. Chapter 18:4 says "...Get out of her my people if you do not want to share with her in her sins.
Then Rv...
Dear Brother E99:
I am studying to become one of Jehovah's Witnesses. I would have laughed at the idea of going door to door and preaching the good nes of the Kingdom a year ago. I want to become a Minister and go into Prisons too and help those that need this ministering.
Thanks for your...
As have you asked, I also said I’d give a breakdown of the parable of Lazarus, reasoning why I think that it is not a literal occurrence. If I have time !

Hello Brothers and Sisters:
I've been following this thread fade away from the discussion of the immortal soul, but...
Good Morning CR:
Here's a few more thoughts on the soul not being "immortal":
Jesus Christ told his disciples "Lazarus our friend has gone to rest, but I am joureying there to awaken him from ssleep". Jesus said plainly, "Lazarus has died" John 11:23,24. Lazarus' mother Martha expresses no...
Thanks, it was wierd. I am on my own PC now which was a mistake before and am on my own personal time. I believe in freedom of religion and being a soldier in what you believe in because it forms who you are.
I like you John and admire how you stand firm in your beliefs, you are like a freight...
Think of it like this: What does everlasting life mean? Being alive forever. What is eternal death then? The opposite of everlasting life which is being dead forever, right?
In death there is no thought, no senses and no life since life is the opposite of death. Fire is a symbol of...
Hey Q (Josh), congratulations on your promotion to Moderator, the time you spend here is amazing and I am sure is appreciated by all.
John, glad to see your still hanging around here. You mentioned an afterlife here on Earth. Even though I believe Jesus rules in Heaven (seperate from Earth)...
Hey John:
Sorry so long to respond here, hard to explain... I hope you understand. One question though, if humans are tourmented in a fiery hell, how does their soul burn forever if they are no longer human???
