    Leaving RF

    Yes, I also see this as a response to what is to come. The reasons are real and I will join my brother in saying farewell to RF. Being obedient to the direction of those taking the lead, is a Christian obligation. (Heb 13:7, 17)

    My Time on RF has also Come to an End

    In view of recent developments I will be joining my brother Kolibri in leaving RF. I believe that the reasons given are valid and that the direction we have received is timely. (Heb 13:7, 17) I have enjoyed my time here, but I believe it is time to say farewell. Thank you for the...

    JW's Jesus is Archangel Michael?

    Since God had no "beginning" and he is the 'begetter' of a firstborn son, that means that it is the beginning of God's creative activity that is spoken about in John 1:1. Rev 3:14 plainly says that the son is "the beginning of the creation by God" Col 1:15, 16 tells us that Jesus is "the...

    JW's Jesus is Archangel Michael?

    What version are you quoting? This is not saying what you think it's saying. None of the translations I looked up render the verse this way. Perhaps you need to change to a more reliable translation in order to "read scripture"? Even the Catholic Bible does not translate the verse that way...

    Jesus was pro-drinking

    In words of warning about things to come, Jesus said..... Luke 21:34-36....“But take care for yourselves, lest your hearts are weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of daily life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a trap. For it will come upon all who reside on...

    Jesus was pro-drinking

    Galatians 5:19-21....."Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are sexual immorality, impurity, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, factions, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, things which I am...

    Where did Good People go Before Christ Died on the Cross?

    Do you believe that God is all knowing? Do you not think that he detected a rebellious spirit in the devil long before he sinned? Do you think it was an accident that satan was appointed as a "covering cherub" in the garden of Eden with access to the humans that God placed there? (Ezekiel...

    JW's Jesus is Archangel Michael?

    Did Moses do anything from his own ability? When Jehovah said he was going to make Moses "a god to Pharaoh", do you understand what he meant? All his abilities resulted from the operation of God's power, not his own. When did Moses receive his power? When he took up his role as deliverer. Jesus...

    Yet another movie theater shooting.

    I am always intrigued by the American mind-set on gun control. Coming from a country where we don't see a need for owning or using weapons, it is astonishing to see people want more guns to solve the "gun problem". That to me is like using gasoline to put out a fire. :eek: After Sandy...

    How Do You Understand The Gospel?

    Jesus is NEVER referred to as Almighty God. At Isaiah 9:6 Jesus Christ is prophetically called ʼEl Gib·bohrʹ, “Mighty God” (not ʼEl Shad·daiʹ [God Almighty], which is applied to Jehovah at Genesis 17:1). Jesus is a divine "mighty one", second only to his God and Father in power and authority...

    JW's Jesus is Archangel Michael?

    I am offended by your condescension, not your request. Whilst others are angered when we post quotes from WT material or from the NWT, you appear to be just the opposite. It is strange to say the least. I don't see the need to post WT articles in response to other posters when the Bible itself...

    How Do You Understand The Gospel?

    1 Cor 15:45 explains how the life of Jesus corresponds to the life that Adam lost. The perfect mortal soul that was Adam was atoned for by the correspondingly perfect mortal soul that was Jesus. What is a "quickening" spirit? Who uses language like that nowadays? Relying on the old KJV...

    How Do You Understand The Gospel?

    And I have answered you. Your confusion comes from trying to squeeze Jesus into a false dichotomy. Christendom invented the Jesus of which you speak. This is NOT the Jesus that the Bible presents. If you understand that, you have to put down what Christendom has promoted and actually read your...

    JW's Jesus is Archangel Michael?

    That your program defaults to the KJV is also telling. Anyone who relies on the KJV for biblical accuracy is not interested it, IMO. I came out of Christendom and studied the KJV with the Witnesses for two years before I was baptised. It is a lousy translation, but still contains the truth of...

    How Do You Understand The Gospel?

    Jesus only ever said he was "God's son".....never once did he claim to be equal with his Father and never did he ask for worship. He directed all worship to his God. (Luke 4:8) He is not, and never was part of a triune godhead. This is a Catholic teaching, not something that Christ or his...
