Biting my tongue at last nights bookstudy
by GBSJG in

2. bible
so i went to last nights bookstudy which discusses 6 paragraphs of the daniel book so there was lots of room for comment.

the study itself already was pretty frustrating it was taken from chapter 17 paragraphs 24-29 and it goes on about how the fds has to be lead by jehovah because of all the prophecies of daniel that fits them (1335 days was this convention to that etc etc).

but the paragraphs also mention the failed prediction for 1925. here are some interresting quotes from the book: .

Is Gods correct name pronounced Jehovah?? What about the messiahs name?
by evergreen in
1. watchtower
2. bible
i thought i would ask this question as i have been reading some fascinating information on some other sites as to the correct pronunciation of gods real name?

also for that matter, i ask what jesus proper pronounced name is?.

if you go to another country and tell people your name and instead of calling you your name as you pronounced it, they automatically transliterate it into their own language and call you by the name thay have transliterated it in to; would that annoy you after awhile?

2. bible
*** it-2 p. 492 nephilim *** .

increased wickedness.

the mighty ones who were of old, the men of fame that were produced by these marriages, were not men of fame with god, for they did not survive the flood, as did noah and his family.

Dogma of eternal punishment....(before I was a Dub)
by upside/down in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
the dogma of eternal punishment and hell is one of the things that led me to question my faith.

we live in a temporal world/universe bound by time.

either (as the faithful believe) the world will be made new after the final judgment, or the universe and humanity will cease to exist (entropy and all that).
