    Would God Really Want Us To Worship Him?

    The only way that you can come to know God is through worship of him. God is vigorous in power, a lover of justice, wise in heart, and God is love. If you don't study his word, you will never come to know these qualities. The Bible says, "draw close to God and he will draw close to you". Part...

    Genesis 1:1

    We don't know how much time transpired. You're correct it could have been millions of years. Scientist say the universe is millions of years old--why not this earth that was probably formed by Jehovah at the same time as the universe???

    most important word in the Bible?

    I believe that most important word in the Bible is God's name, "JEHOVAH". Jehovah says many times over that "the nations shall know that I am Jehovah". When we say the Lord's Prayer, we pray that God name be sanctified. Unfortunately, Jehovah's name has been removed from many versions of the...

    What is your favorite biblical quote?

    1 Corinthians 15:24-26 - "Next the end, when he hands over the kingdom to his God and Father, when he has brought to nothing all government and all authority and power. For he must rule as king until God has put all enemies under his feet. As the last enemy, death is to be brought to nothing."...

    has G-D performed any miracles lately?

    Jesus performed miracles yet his enemies accused him of deception and trickery. Our faith should not be determined by whether or not we see miracles. Faith is the assured expectation of things hoped for, the evident demonstration of realities though not beheld. (Heb 11:1). You speak of a...

    144,000?

    He got this idea from the book of Revelation that speaks of 144,000 chosen ones that will serve as princes with Jesus Christ and reign over the earthly Kingdom that he establishes. Though only a few will go to heaven (144,000), the rest of us have the possibility of being part of the "great...

    Can this possibly be true?

    Most people think that Jesus will return in the flesh. That is not true. The Bible speaks of Jesus' return being the same as when he left. When he left, he was caught up in a cloud such that he disappeared from sight. His return will be the same thing-- an invisible presence. Hence the reason...

    The Remains of Christ

    Jesus' spiritual body is what should be of significance. It is his death and resurrection which makes it possible for us to gain eternal life. I don't know why so many people are bent on trying to bring Jesus down low...he was a perfect human being who withstood the test. He did not show any...

    Who Believe the Earth is 6000 Years Old???

    I believe that the earth is older than 6000 years, quite possibly having been here for millions of years before Jehovah decided to populate it with humans and other species.

    Which Way To The Garden Of Eden?

    The experts have speculated where the Garden was, since the Bible mentions the 4 rivers that exited from it. However, today we only know of 2 of those rivers--the Tigris and the Euphrates and it is hard to say where the other 2 rivers flowed. I believe that the majority of the experts feel the...

    Is the biblical story of Noah’s Flood a true account?

    Noah's Ark and the flood is not a story--it is a retelling of an actual event. A television documentary recently scientifically proved that point. When Jesus was on earth he referenced the flood as a parallel to the attitude that people have today regarding the end of this system---they took no...

    What Do You Find Beautiful About Your Religion?

    What I find beautiful is that everything it teaches can be supported scripturally, and not with just one scripture, but with a host of scriptures that are all in harmony with the teaching.

    Eclectic spirituality

    A Christian ought to have no part in interfaith movements 2 Cor. 6:14-17; 11:13-15; Gal. 5:9; Deut. 7:1-5

    I have a request..

    JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES believe in Almighty God, Jehovah, Creator of the heavens and the earth. SOME OF WHAT JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES BELIEVE Belief Scriptural Reason Bible is God's Word and is truth 2 Tim. 3:16, 17; 2 Pet. 1:20, 21; John 17:17 Bible is more reliable than tradition Matt. 15:3; Col...

    Christian - Once Saved Always Saved?

    Christians are not saved forever once they accept Jesus. However, belief in Jesus is essential to salvation. Belief must be accompanied by works. We must obey God's commandments as did Jesus. Once saved, always saved is not scriptural. See 1 Corinthians 9: 27 --"...but I pummel my body and...
