Hi all, I believe in numerous places, there is a clear choice given:Two roads: One leads to “life.” One to “destruction.”MATTHEW 7:13-14““Go in through the narrow gate; because broad and spacious is the road leading off into destruction, and many are the ones going in through it; whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off int…[Read more]

Quote This is wrong. They did not decide to put “GOD” or “LORD” in place of God's name. What I wrote above, should say:This is wrong. They did not decide to put God's name in place of those titles.

Quote Are you saying that you could have done a better job of translating then that of the 45 or so scholars used in doing the translation of the KJ?I am simply pointing out that God's Word originally contained the tetragrammaton about 7000 times. And in all but 3 or 4 of those instances, the translators of the KJ decided to substitute it with…[Read more]

Quote Do you take personally criticism of denominations like the JW's?Nick, there are certain people that make it their objective in life to slander what I consider to be God's organization. Let's take trinity as an example. There are hundreds of websites that speak of the trinity. About 95 percent of them speak directly against JW's because…[Read more]

Thankyou for loving me Nick. I could have also mentioned that one of the reasons i was away last week was because I went swimming and plugged my ear and got an ear infection and the right side of my face went numb, and I just didn't feel very good for a few days. I actually considered asking Nick about it. Anyway, I went to my doctor, and most…[Read more]

Hi Cubes. You mentioned this topic. I thought I would bring it back.THE UNCERTAINTY WE ARE DISCUSSING: Whether the Bible condones or condemns Christians partaking in worldly wars.FACT: The scriptures foretold an apostasy among Christians–a deviation from the straight path, following twisted thinking and false teachers.FACT: Because of their B…[Read more]

Hey Cubes, It's actually been quite hot here. The province I live in kind of goes from one extreme to the next, being up to +40 celcius in the summer and down to -40 celcius in the winter.

Hi Woutlaw, and Cubes,Thanks for missing me (or at least, wondering where I've been).I went to the lake for a week. The last week, I've been kind of busy, and this weekend, I was away as well. I find I get a lot more reading done when I 'm not on here every day. I plan on cutting down the amount of time I spend on here.I also plan on adopting…[Read more]

Quote So here is the delemma. It is alright to attack the KJ. Yet, how many of you are willing to stand up against my attacks on your translations.H, I believe you have continously repeatedly said:'The KJV is infallible.'No one else has made such claims about other Bibles, as far as I can tell. You are the one making the claim.And, when someone…[Read more]

Hi Nick.Isn't he giving glory to one of God's creations? The human brain truly is a marvelous thing, incomparable with any other physical creation.

H, I’m uncertain as to why we believe the universe is 6000 years old. Man is 6000 years old.“In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.”We are not told when this beginning of creation was–whether it was 6000 years ago, or billions of years–we are not told. We are simply told: “In the beginning,” the heavens, including the earth, we…[Read more]

Quote Hi,Here david espouses another bizarre JW doctrine where there are two classes of salvation and a “PASS GO free” card.They are not “first class,” as though one salvation is better.

There is a thread for this. I found it. It's the “soul” thread.

david replied to the topic The soul in the forum Scriptural Teachings 20 years, 3 months ago
Found it.Hi H.First, Matthew 10:28 states that God “can destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.” This shows that psykhé does not refer to something immortal or indestructible. There is, in fact, not one case in the entire Scriptures, Hebrew and Greek, in which the words néphesh or psykhé are modified by terms such as immortal, ind…[Read more]
