Think of the ridiculous wt ritual to dress up for home sessions, complete with short wt studies, without paragraph reading, because members watched their summer program, perhaps at night? .

Do you believe that this life is all there is
by Fisherman inthe bible records resurrections and there is orher evidence besides that gives hope.
what do you think, is there enough evidence to believe in another life?.

Fm: No proof = No faith.
right. where is the proof in those stories? where is the "evident demonstration" it happened then and can be done now? Hebr. 11:1 ? so,
by definition,- requiring acceptance of the talking snake saga -, is not faith, face it, its credulity. The father can do better than that. imho enJoy

Valid question. In the story, all the resurrected ones came back to the same kind of life, even after having broken the life/genetic line to A&E's faulty one. "children of the resurrection" Even Jesus displayed a mortally wounded sarkos.
Is there a different, not carbon based life, information based consciousness possible? yes, even likely with trillions of planets out there.
Did the universe, life here create itself? no. Has that energetic, demonstrably eternal Father/ mother LIFE figure reached back down here? , let us see real evidence, now, besides old, fading stories of different flavour, aka religions.
let us welcome back Dorcas. again., and Eutychus, who was bored to death by the talk of a first century Governing Body helper aka P.o.T. (nothing new here) enJoy.

What Name Does the New Testament Emphasize - Jehovah or Jesus?
by Vanderhoven7 init seems to me scripturally speaking, that jehovah's witnesses are emphasizing the wrong name.. it should be jesus, not jehovah.

If the creator of this immense universe we live in had any interest in this controversy, he would have never allowed this confusion to exist in the scriptures. imho. ---and conveniently
The truth stays the same as Jehovah and Jesus never change : from GodBeliever
Yeah, the name means: He is ever changing to whatever He wants/needs to be? rotating the 4 faces, eagle, man, lion and bull? or lying bull----? twisting neck, arm and scripture's meaning? ?
all man-made concepts from A-Z.?
the future will tell. enJoy.

waton, I don't know French, except for a few French words. But according to Google, I learned that "jusqu'à quel profondeur?"
Disillusioned JW: The word "touche" to me carried a kind of dismissive message, but I wanted to have the fact that in the story, "Jesus" never used the official name for the deity in his prayers to sink in deeply.
We are supposed to follow His example, and Wt's adherents really really cheapen the Most High's designation, by the hundreds of times it is kicked around in meetings, conversations. worship my foot.
Jesus made known the name, namely the meaning , majesty, but never mentioned it himself. well,
to "Satan" perhaps, during the kingdom temptation scene: "You must worship your god------ alone---"

can someone explain why a 'Y", oh my, is in the hebrew writing of the divine name, if hebrew only had consonants in writing? "Y" , or ypsylon is a pronounced vowel in many languages, not a substitute for a "J". Is this a quirk of the english translations only?
I see the Son and/or Father issue resolved when you see a 3D relief of J letters, superimposed on each other, like in an ornamented antique bible, one clear J on a bigger basic J.

My Prediction Regarding New Space Telescope That Will See Back to 100 Million Years From the Big Bang
by Sea Breeze ina new space telescope launched a few days age that will supposedly be able to see to within 100 million years of the big bang.
wow... only 100 million years from the big bang.
that is pretty early given the 12 billion year age of the universe assigned by scholars who adhere to naturalism.

Dark matter/energy (you must know that those are the same by now) has been observed, it is what causes gravitational lensing. The problem is that we don’t know what dark matter/energy is made out of, because there is none near any traditional matter that we are used to.
AM not so, even ordinary mass' gravity has most influence only outside its "surface" , dark matter is not a halo but also inside an entity. (There is no gravity inside a hollow sphere, at the center of the earth, or a black hole, or inside dark matter.)
dark energy might be the eternal, all pervading energy that "appears" inside, as the universe expands into the future.
