I need a simplified explanation...
by XOCO intoday i had a sister do a bible study with me and i asked her if jesus really died on a torture stake instead of a cross and i showed her john 20:25 emphasizing hands with an s and nails with an s. what the sister had told me was "yes one nail though his hands and one nail though his feet" ok so now back to the emphasis of the s if that were the case why make hand and nail plural be written in the bible then?

Harold Camping Denies Hell as a place
by kwr inharold camping is the president of family radio and recently on his open forum program he denied that hell is a place.
he also has set dates for the return of christ the first was in 1994 and now he says it will be 2011. he also states that the end of the church age has come, but he has weekly meetings that are not church.
does this sound familiar to anyone here?

Charles Taze Russell was right!!!
by whereami inaccording to this article, http://www.sullivan-county.com/id2/apoc.htm interesting read.
fundamentalist christians take a hard line on setting dates for the second advent of christ.
but that didn't happen in 1914. as of 2004 it still hasn't happened.

by Witness 007 inyearbook 75 p.223-224 witness couple and their 6 day old cheryl, who needed blood.
"darell and rhoda correctly viewed blood transfusion as a violation of god's law, and thus oposed it.
they were concerned about the babies welfare, for everlasting life is only the prospect of those adhering to god's laws.

Is 1914 date flawed?
by badboy inreasoning from the scriptures says on pp95-97 that months consist of 30 days.. years therefore would be 360 days long.. i have calcaluted(sic)that for every year in the `western'calender such a 360 day calender would fall 4/5 days depending on whether it was a leapyear or not.
now over a period of 2520 years,a 360 day calender would be 9,940 days behind a 364/5 day calender(25 years!
) therefore 2520 years according to book of daniel would fall in 1889!.

My friend's question about 1914
by hungry4life inthe friend that i spoke of earlier has many questions about scriptural misaplications used by the wts.
she is still a witness but is searching diligently for the true truth.
i have simpler reasons for not wanting anything to do with the borg, and have to be honest in saying i have not done alot of research on the topics she is interested in.
