Wow.

I created this thread 8 years ago! How time changes.

Nicks gives some unrelated and bizarre reply to UMB5 and then UMB5 says that he isn’t sure what nick is talking about. It isn’t just me!!! Hallelujah.

@nickhassan

My point was simply that just because one does not believe that men today do not have the power to perform miracles, does not mean they deny the power of God. I agree that you…

Thank you for your explanation. So you think he denies the power of God because he may or may not be J.W. Interesting. I didn’t see anything about any specific religion in this thread, and what that religion believes, so I’m not sure if that explanation actually answers the question, however what I got from this thread is that today God doe…

You deny God’s power, are you also denying God? Are you hoping someone here will rescue you, or are you out to cast doubt in people’s mind? Sorry, but that is how it feels.

Hi miia

I don’t remember saying that. This feels like something nick likely said of me. You have to know that half of what nick says about me isn’t true. I could be an…[Read more]

Hi david,

You do not see the power of God at work?

is there faith on the earth?

Do I see the power of God at work?
Not in you, you witch doctor.

Is there faith on the earth?
Yes, far too much.

Hi gene and bod

My post about the contrast of the little boy who has no food and prays and begs God while on this side of the planet a man prays for his insignificant relatively unimportant thing to be fixed and it’s a miracle, God grants him his plea–It had nothing to do with if the little boy has a good attitude bod, or if God is using that…[Read more]

Hi david,

Seek ye FIRST the kingdom and everything else will be added to you.

You will not find it in the Kingdom Halls.

I don’t remember ever saying anyone will.

Nick, in the past many years, I’ve started and then abandoned numerous threads because of you. It just leads to duplicates of threads. But I find what you do in all these…[Read more]

Why is it nick that I almost never know what you are talking about. Thank you for predictably not answering my question and by doing so, answering your own.

You believe what I do. You just lie to yourself about it. Understandable.

Miia, have you ever looked up every scripture about prayer and lined them up. With God all things are possible. Mountain like obstacles. Ask anything according to his will and he hears you. Ask anything and he will do it. Whatever you ask it will be yours. Etc.

Have you ever noticed that amputees don’t ever grow limbs back despite those…[Read more]

No Ed, I think it’s because as I said, proverbs says it:

“Do not come to be among heavy drinkers of wine, among those who are gluttonous eaters of flesh.”

Just as I said. I haven’t looked far enough back in the posts but I’m not sure the point you are trying to make. Also, why is it when I press the reply button, we don’t see your words in the response?

Nick!!

You finally know what this thread is about. Morality! Great. Nick, you had children. Did you beat them with a rod? Did you produce wounds or bruises to cleanse away evil? If not, why? If you answer this “why” question, which given your history there is zero chance of happening, it in effect will be like me answering your question.

Nick,

Your complete break with reality bothers me and it should bother you. What that I have said recently hints at what you suggest? Nick, what are your thoughts on beating wives? Are you still okay wth it in principle? I am accusing you of something that has no relation to reality. You do this with me a lot. I almost find it a nice…[Read more]

Ed.

I am still here.

While there may be not gay gene, it does seem that each successive male tha t a women has increases the likelihood that the male will end up being gay. I can’t remember why this is but it may have something to Do with genes. It’s not like the 5th boy has a huge percentage captain in being gay. But it has been shown that with each…[Read more]

Nick, one of the first things I did when I discovered the downward trend in violence is locked up the word that is translates lawlessness in the Bible. It doesn’t seem to mean: breaking the law or committing crimes. It seems to mean, unrighteousness.

Regardless, of what we feel because of the availability heuristic, violence is decreasing.…[Read more]

Hi kerwin.

The only thing I disagree with in this article is the idea that it was because of the baby boom in the U.S. (And Canada) that saw the up spike in crime and violent crime. (Since younger people commit more crimes and then when they aged and entered their 40’s or 50’s this population boom of course committed less crimes.) I’ve actually…[Read more]

Soulish? Did you mean souless?

The bible says that animals like humans are souls. It also says they have souls (life)

But I’m not suggesting in any way this as a guide. I’m asking why?

Nick
Of course these things exist and always existed. It’s the trend that surprises me. Pompeii provides a great picture of Ancient Rome. A snapshot. The amount of brothels staggers the mind. There were also prostitutes at the inns. There were panic images pointing to these brothels. I did the math. The amount of brothels in Pompeeii would…[Read more]

I don’t know. Saying its against nature seems different than saying its against the majority. Today at least when people say against nature they usually mean it’s unnatural, meaning, not the way it’s normally done. But it also sometimes refers to nature itself. And nature, has the same amount of homosexuals as humans do.

Hi Andrew,

By asking what is the point of it, I’m asking why God allowed this. Many say that God is disgusted by this unnatural perversion. Yet at the same time, it seems he allowed animals, who don’t act on free will, but who act on God given instinct, to have the instinct to have sex with the same gender. What would the point of that be?…[Read more]
