What is the purpose of your life as a human being and what are your plans for the future?

thanks!.

.

love healthworker.

My purpose is to own a huge plot of land, build a thick high wall around it, and landscape it into a Frogs paradise with ponds and marshland, free from humans and predators where both frogs and toads can live a life of carefree bliss.

Its allways been my ambition, since a little boy, just got to get the land now, and the frogs.

Are the desert wastelands of biblical lands due to man or a curse?

by EndofMysteries in

i was looking on google earth the other day, take a look at it, the entire world.

notice how all of the countries and lands which were involved in all the biblical events are desert wastelands.

i thought to myself, did they destroy the soil and nothing will grow, well lets see how much rain they get a year.

Like a lot of things really, cannot be proved one way or another, leaves you free to reveal your hearts true desire by whichever option you chose to want to belive.

Another one I like is the warning to the Jews they would be cast amongst the nations, and sure enough they were!, (though Iam sure there will be a rational and scientific explaination available).

What Year Will JWs Start To Ask, Are The GB Pulling Our Leg? 2020, 2030 or 2050?

by ÁrbolesdeArabia in

i can see this game being played until 2050, there is enough cash to last until the middle of the century, if all print is shut off.

when will the lights snap on, and the majority of the jws figure "we were tricked and let's keep our kids from making our mistakes.

how far can you see in your "mind's eyes" the barnums of bethel moving the circus tents before the audience realizes the show is long over?

Nambo

I belive the opposite will happen, the financial system is on the verge of collapse, thats going to seem like Armageddon to first world countries, never mind all the other tricks the hidden hand have up thier sleeves to frighten us into accepting their New World Order, World Wars, HAARP triggered "natural disasters", starvation whist they still grow thier bio-fuels, etc etc.

Then people will be flocking to the JWs who will be saying, "We told you this was going to happen", I bet even a lot of the atheists here will go running back.

Worshipping a Golden Calf wont bring any of them salvation however, a lot of JWs are going to be very suprised to see their predictions finally coming true, but to find they themselves where predicted at Mathew 24 v 26

Ezekiel's Temple Vision

by leaving_quietly in

jws understand the temple vision in ezekiel to represent the anointed today and the "spiritual temple" both earthly and heavenly.. w00 3/15 pp.

14 in 1971 an explanation of ezekiels prophecy was published in the book the nations shall know that i am jehovahhow?

a chapter of that book briefly discussed ezekiels vision of a temple.

Nambo

Now bareing in mind that at the end of the 1000 years Satan gathers the Nations together to wage war on the Holy city.

Also bare in mind Isaiah 65 talks about people still dying though 100 years old.

Also supposedly dead people will be weeping and Gnashing thier teeth because they didnt get in.

I wonder if this is what happens, after Jesus returns, his people are gathered to Literal Jerusalem, just as the Hebrews were gathered there previosuly.

They will not die because they will be able to drink from the River of Life that emits from Eziekiels Temple.

People that did not qualify as Christians and that survived the tribulations, will be living in the world just as they do now, but without the Devil stirring things up, so it will be a lot better for them they will however see how they have missed out by not being in the Promised land, hence they will be living people who weep and gnash their teeth outside the city walls.

After the 1000 years, Satan gathers these people, these Nations together, not a load of JWs who failed some mysterious second test.

Gods destruction of disobedient mankind comes at the end of the 1000 years, the destruction of Mankind at the beginning reads to me only those men who actually take up arms against Jesus and his Kingdom, in much the same way the Egyptian army was destroyed, but ordinary Egyptians carried on living.

So to sum up, I think what happened to the Hebrews living in Palestine, is a pattern for what will happen to Christians living as subjects of Jesus here on Earth during his 1000 year reign, both amidst the unGodly Nations of the outside world, and Eziekiels Temple will be in the role of the original Temple but in its full capacity of bringing literal life to its people.

That way, just as the original Nations got to see how much better off mankind was with Jehovah as thier God, the rest of Mankind will even more see the Justification of God by the example of the Christians living forever right in front of thier eyes.

If everone else was dead, how would they get to see they made the wrong decision in rejecting the Christ? All the Nations will know in the end.

long time study

by happy-n-alive in

friends

so i am 20 now and i had my first study when i was 14. no jehovahs witness relatives and i am currently in my second book with one more chapter to go.

the reason it took so long is because it started out very sporadic andd short.

anyways, a friend and i were talking and i said i dont think i want to get baptise anytime soon and she said they may want to 'see a return on their investment' -_- so my question is if any witnesses ever got pushy with you about taking the next step after you have studied with them a long time.

Nambo

No need to feel guilty about wasting thier time by rejecting thier invitation, just get them to reject you, its so easy, you could pretend that you really really want to get Baptised, and they will say no, go away.

There are plenty of questions you can put to them that you will find here on this forum.

Here are some points I would raise if they ever bothered to ask me to come back.

"In John Chaper 6, Jesus specifically states that if you want everlasting life, you have to eat his flesh and drink his blood, you will not get life if you dont, so I will obey Jesus by partaking at the Memorial each year, is that OK?"

"1914 was arrived at by Russells measurements of a Satanic pyramid, is it right we should belive what the Devil says and therefore call Jesus a liar when he says, "Truly I say to you, this Generation will by no means pass away""

" If I see a JW commit a gross sin, is it true that I would be sinning if I failed to report it?, in which case doesnt that mean I should share my knowledge of the Watchtower society riding on the back of the Beast when it joined the United Nations?"

"Why do you claim the ressurection occurs at the beginning of the 1000 years whereas it states here in Revelation that it happens at the end?"

They will soon realise you are not gullible enough for them.

Was the Christ invisibly present in 1914?

by wannabe in

was jesus invisibly present in 1914?.

at this point, some may ask, what exactly are, the appointed times of the nations?

notice from the words of jesus, this trampling first began at the murder of abel by his brother cain, who was the, 'seed of satan the devil.

Nambo

Yes, Jesus was present from 1914, the reason you cant see him, well, its like hes out in the Wilderness for now, if you go with the Witnesses though, they will surely soon lead you to him, in fact LOOK!!,, its even written in scripture, Matthew 24, signs of the Last days!

23 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘There he is!’ do not believe it. 24 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you ahead of time. 26 “So if anyone tells you, ‘There he is, out in the wilderness,’ do not go out;
