False Prophets
by OldSoul in*** it-2 p. 681 presumptuousness ***.
disrespect for god's sovereignty.
of the false prophets, jehovah said: "the prophet who presumes to speak in my name a word that i have not commanded him to speak ... that prophet must die.... when the prophet speaks in the name of jehovah and the word does not occur or come true, ... with presumptuousness the prophet spoke it.

Does 607 B.C. even matter?
by OldSoul ini intend to demonstrate that there is a much stronger and more basic argument against 1914 being the year of commencement for christ's reign than a disagreement between scholars and jws over 607 b.c.
daniel stated that the prophecy specifically applied to nebuchadnezzar.
what if nebuchadnezzar represented...nebuchadnezzar?

If I have conviction...
by OldSoul inif i have convictions, but i turn out to be wrong, were my convictions according to accurate knowledge?
can knowledge be "accurate" and "wrong" at the same time?
can knowledge be "pure, unadulterated, unblemished" and "flawed, imperfect, mistaken" at the same time?

Preach the Good News ... how?
by OldSoul inthis thread is for jehovah's witness lurkers and posters here.. acts 13 shows paul and his traveling companions entering a synagogue, speaking before false worshippers in a group setting.
other examples of this particular kind of preaching to unbelievers are:.
acts 2:43-47. acts 5:17-21. acts 5:41, 42 (also house to house).
