  Not getting much of a response. Maybe someone can provide a translation. Is there a French site equivalent to this one?

  Proof of any Dragons

  does anybody have any proof of the existence of dragons?.

  we read in revelation about satan being the dragon, but aren't dragons mythological creatures?.

  I guess my question is this. Since the writer of Revelation is the only Bible writer who used the word dragon, what was he referring to? Assuming he was referring to a mythological creature even then, and he probably got the concept from some other writing of the time period, what was it? I think the stereo typical dragon we think of, breathing fire, etc, probably came out of the Middle Ages. So if the writer of Revelation actually drew a picture of his 'dragon', what would it be?

  I'm too lazy to go do the research myself, but I never thought of this topic until now.

  years ago when i was "in" i loved the book study.

  it was my favorite meeting by far.

  mainly because it was a small group.

  Relief, and one question. Why stop there? The fewer meetings the better!

  The Greek word is indeed 'drakon' and it appears about a dozen times in the NT, exclusively in Revelation.

  Aliens exist and YHWH (Jehovah) was one of them.

  2. beliefs

  "the constellation of the seven stars forming the pleiades appears to be the crowning centre around which the known system of the planets revolve even as our suns planet obey the sun and travel in their respective orbits.

  it has been suggested, and with much weight, that one of the stars of that group is the dwelling place of jehovah and the place of the highest heavens; that is the place to which the inspired writer referred to when he said: "hear thou from thy dwelling place, even from heaven" (2 chronicles6:21) ; and that it is the place to which job referred when under inspiration he wrote: "canst thou blind the sweet influences of pleiades, or loose the bands of orion" – job 38:31"

  the constellation of the pleiades is a small one compared with others which scientific instruments disclose to the wondering eyes of man.

  There are indeed quite a few people who believe that the legends (and religions) about gods or sky people are really about alien visitors. I don't know who came up with the idea originally, but von Daniken in the '70s wrote a book which was really popular when I was growing up. Now there is a cable TV show about the subject about the beliefs. Basically they look for any old story or legend and find some way to apply it to fit their theory.

  Jehovah's Witnesses: A Clear Decline

  by Hadriel in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it is rather clear that the internet is to put it mildly, wrecking the world of the watchtower bible & tract society.

  if not for foreign language i doubt there would be much growth at all.. digital trends and analytics are very real.

  i live this analytics world i assure you to some degree you can take it to the bank.

  here is a document i received many years ago, probably 10 or 15 years ago.

  this was originally a two page documented, and i accidentally shredded page 2 as i was clearing out some boxes.

  but i think this page says it all.

  A Picture of the First Bethel

  by Wild_Thing in

  here is a picture of 124 columbia heights in brooklyn that russell purchased when he moved his operations to brooklyn.

  it belonged to another preacher, henry ward beecher, before he died.

  russell also bought his other properties that beecher had on hick street, which i guess would be the first assembly hall.

  Thanks Pete, yes, Wikipedia shows that Harriet Beecher Stowe and Henry Ward Beecher were siblings, their father was Lyman Beecher, also a famous minister.
