by minimus inmy mother gave me the last few watchtower and awakes when i visited her this week.....in the 1-1-04 watchtower, under the article---"jehovah's word is alive---highlights from the book of genesis---1"-------on page 29, the question is asked:"did jehovah god speak to adam directly?
" notice their answer.
"the bible reveals that when god spoke to humans, it was often through an angel.

Typical conflicted behavior from a typical Witness
by crinklestein ini used to be a member of the shelburne falls ma congregation and i'm not afraid of anyone from there finding out about what i write.
i used to be friends with a guy we shall call den.
we were friends for 10 years and through that 10 years he would bounce back and forth between wanting to be ultra religious and being worldly.

Anybody See The January 22, 2004 Awake?
by ColdRedRain intoday, when i came home from the hospital, i saw the back of the 2004 awake and something struck my fancy.
it appears that it has pictures of the holy name in hebrew engraved in pyramids.
i opened up the magazine and it was filled with even more of those pictures, and a picture of a weird looking face on page 11.

Jesus and the two criminals dying beside him.....
by sandy ini have been watching a couple of the movies retelling the life of christ and i was wondering about the words jesus said to the criminal who asked him to remember him.. the king james version reads: and jesus said unto him, "verily i say unto thee, today shalt thou be with me in paradise" luke 23:43. the new world translation reads: and he said to him "truly i tell you today, you will be with me in paradise.
" luke 23:43. the movie i was watching quoted or at least was closer to the king james version.
maybe i am wrong but the same scriptures seem to imply two different things.
