Jesus: A Know-It-All? (How Jesus Is Not God by the Standards of Christian Apologetics)
by whereami ina quick look at an example of how christian apologetics ignores and even undermines the scriptures upon which christianity is purported to be based.
the new testament plainly and unqualifiedly says--in the voice of jesus, no less--that god the father has unique knowledge vis-a-vis precisely when jesus will return, that this knowledge is available to no one else.
"the father alone" knows; no one else knows (mt 24:36, cf mk 13:32).

Honor Flight
by man in black insince i left the jw religion, i have tried to make an effort to experience things that i respected in secret during those years, but could never act upon.. one of the things i discovered and really respect is a program called honor flight.
they fly ww 2 veterans to washington dc for the day to visit the ww 2 memorial.
they figure that all of these guys will be gone in 7 -8 years so there is a real push to help them all.. look them up for your area, they are always looking for help in many different ways.. this is from the chicago area :.

FDS/GB spokeperson for God
by bobld inthe fds/gb claim they speak and intepret the bible correctly.ex.jan01/07 wt,"john saw in vision the announing of the sealing of the 144k.than he saw "a great crowd".the identity of the great crowd is revealed to john by one of the 24 elders,and these elders represent the 144k joint heirs with christ in their heavenly glory.
"note:john was on earth in 98c.e.
when the elder spoke to him in vision per fds/gb.however, the fds/gb pinpoint the 1st resurrection of the 144k started in 1918 c.e.so how can someone(144k) gave a vision when he/she was not born?.

Is Sallvation a gift or by works? (An explination)
by A-Team inthis is for the jw lurkers out there.
now, lets look at how the word salvation is used in the bible.
we see that the word gift is used when the bible describes how one obtains salvation, but the word earned is never used.

Flat out lie.
by bob1999 in"why, then, do the nations not realize and accept the approach of this climax of judgment?
it is because they have not heeded the world wide advertising of christs return and his second presence.
since long before world war i jehovahs witnesses pointed to 1914 as the time for this great event to occur.

Another way of looking at Matthew 24, short video
by AuntBee inhttp://americanvision.org/3802/matthew-24-a-summary/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feed%3a+americanvisionmedia+%28the+gary+demar+show%29.
i was exposed to a mildly apocalyptic atmosphere within evangelicalism, and i really appreciate gary's thoughts on matthew 24. i hope it will be of interest to some of you to hear a completely different perspective.
