the bible records miracles such as resurrections, angels, prophecy and destructive acts of god to mention a few.
are these all a pack of lies?
how do you explain them?
Do historical records corroborate those claims ?
Are their archaeological records backing up those claims ?
What evidence is there outside of the Bible that supports those claims ?
To my knowledge there is none whatsoever.
My understanding is, it`s all down to having faith in what the Bible claims , facts are not necessary .
I look forward to what other folk have to say on this subject also .
Nostromo
,Can someone paraphrase what that is all about ? There is no way I could sit and watch an hour and more of that video .
I`m sorry ,I just couldn`t do it.
i mean, the jws have many faults, as each of us have.. do you know any other group that does?.
I know that every Church that claims to know GOD doesn`t exist .
How can you know something or some being that doesn`t exist ?
You can`t ,so stop wasting your time ,and get with the real world .
The concept of a GOD is an illusion and a delusion.
Their is absolutely no evidence that such a being ever existed in the history of mankind.
Prove me wrong and I will join you.
And please don`t fall back on having faith, as that is not proof .
i've been out for 13 years.
just wondering who the society is identifying as the king of the north?.
Who said the world wont end with a wimper but a bang ?
Isn`t there 10 GB members now and not 12 ? Not that it matters much as they are all full of shit ?
And they have no influence in the greater scheme of things on planet Earth ,except in their own minds.
Delusional ,al of them.
i've been out for 13 years.
just wondering who the society is identifying as the king of the north?.
Russia is by no means a world power now by any stretch of the imagination.
They certainly are not King of the North . in Bible prophecy.
If anyone is emerging as the King of the North it would have to be China .
But then again it`s all a lot of bunk.
isn’t it about time they released the report for the service year?
or have they stopped publishing it?
did they released selected figures at the annual meeting as they usually do, such as the memorial attendance or record number of pioneers?
Can we really trust the GB / JW ,to truthfully report accurately on numbers ?
I have my doubts about anything they publish nowadays as being truthful .
the jws are fond of quoting john 13:35 that love is the identifying mark of the true religion claiming that only they have this love among themselves.
they love each other.. i was reading the gospel of luke today and thought about the words of jesus luke 6:32-35 niv, “if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you?
even sinners love those who love them.
The Bible says GOD is Love ? Then my question is : Why would a GOD of love confine Satan down here on Earth to mislead and tempt Humans into wrongdoing ?
as i understand it, jehovah’s witnesses believe less than 145,000 faithful christians existed prior to the twentieth century.
the other sheep christians did not start forming until after 1914. that means jehovah’s witnesses view millions martyred for their faith in christ prior to the 20th century as merely professed christians.. the question is…how do witnesses know that those millions who perished for their faith in christ were not christians at all?.
They don`t know, and that`s the truth ,they are arrogant, Know it all`s who never get anything right ,just look back at their history to understand that fact.
i wonder how many have doubts about the gb teaching that only baptised jws would survive the big a?
even then they still only say you may make it as with unbaptised kids of jdubs.
i think most people physically in don’t agree with the gb on this and are hoping jehovah would let other good people into the new world even if they are not baptised jws.
As a rough guess I would say that every ex JW their is and anybody else who is not a JW and became aware of that question ,just for starters.
