  Images

  2. bible

  simple question.

  while the deuteronomists and later writers of the bible condemned the use of images of yahweh, they at the same time imagined him and described him in text as a man in the sky with bow and arrows or riding a chariot drawn by cherubs or sitting on a throne.

  if the former is a dishonor, ought not the latter be as well?.

  The Lost Qos

  by peacefulpete in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the names of the gods of palestine and surrounding regions are known to most of us only through the condemnations of the ot writers.

  baal peor, hadad, chemosh, molech/milkom dagon, etc.

  it is therefore surprising that the main deity of the sister nation to the south, edom is never mentioned.

  charlie ryde writes:.

  let us use the same bite model for determining if something is a cult to both being a jw and being ex-jw.

  Which of you readers are being shunned by their relatives / friends ?

  by stan livedeath in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  a simple " me" if you dont want to say more--or a short explanation about who is shunning you and how long has this been going on.. i'll set the ball rolling: my daughter--her husband and children; my younger son --no contact from them for 40 years...because i left their religion.. (edit--i just noticed the typo in the header--if should be of ).

  the worst part of my experience of getting rid of the shackles of wt is not the shunning.

  i can live with that.

  if people don't want to talk to me, there are many more who do!
