2. bible
.....so if gifts of prophecying were done away with, maybe the society did not read this scripture.......maybe this is the reason they are always wrong.

i wonder how a witness would explain this scripture.

the law was nailed to the torture stake
by sunshine2 in
1. watchtower
2. bible
....this is what the bible says.......then how is it that the wtbts lays up even more rules and regulations then they had in the mosaic law?

does this not defeat the purpose of christ's death?

if the law was the tutor leading to christ, now that he died for us, why all these rules?
