Does the Bible Have a Hidden Code?
by undercover infrom the wts website:.
bout two years after the assassination of israeli prime minister yitzhak rabin in 1995, a journalist claimed that with the assistance of computer technology, he had discovered a prediction of that event hidden in the original hebrew bible text.
the journalist, michael drosnin, wrote that he had tried to warn the prime minister over a year before the assassination but to no avail.. other books and articles have now been published claiming that this hidden code provides absolute proof of god's inspiration of the bible.

Resurrected state?
by MidwichCuckoo in''for in the resurrection neither do men marry nor women be given in marriage, but are as angels in heaven'' (matthew 22 v 30).
i was taught that this scripture means that the resurrected will be unmarriageable.
(i state what appears to be the obvious, as i have since heard that god would be cruel to disallow the 'reunion' of a happy couple separated by death).. as i understood this scripture to mean the resurrected would be celibate, it made sense to me that they would not have the appearance of 'survivors'.

My mother is annoying me, badly!!
by Gill inmy mother is seriously annoying me, now.
i have never been a patient person and only ever put up with so much before i go out firing on all cylinders - 'the fiery latin in me' i'm afraid!.
anyway, my mum wants me to 'study the bible properly' with my idiot elder cousin and his watchtower on legs wife.. these are the very people, who have shunned us with a vengeance for the last few years and who my parents asked permission from a couple of years ago, when they had a barbie, if these wonderful christians would be offended if we were invited, what with our being 'non meeting attenders'.. i said, if you want '.....' and '.....' to no longer be jws when i've finished with them then a study would be a great idea however, if you think you can change my view on the wtbts and the idiots who follow it then you've got another think coming.. we had a belter of a fight on the phone before 'she remembered' that she'd got eggs boiling on the stove!
