    The Resurrection

    It’s a marvelous gift from a loving God! Made possible when Jehovah provided the way for mankind to escape the bondage to imperfection inherited from Adam (ie., sin), and death! “The way” (John 14:6) for humans to live again, came into existence when Jesus gave his life, to ransom humans. -...

    The Flood & Worldwide Festivals of the Dead — the connection.

    @ChristineM , @nPeace, @Bree, @Vee I think most posters on RF, believe the Flood is myth: not based on evidence. But a few here accept the Flood as a literal, global event. Anyway, let me get to these “Festivals of the Dead”. Is there a link? I’m sure that people would consider the Global...

    Gehenna Is Not Hellfire; what is it?

    The following is an excerpt from a non-JW Index , the link of which is posted below…. Garbage Dump The Greek word GeHenna is often translated as Hell Fire in other Bibles. However, the word simply means the Valley (heb. ge) of Hinnom. Understand that the Valley of Hinnom (also referred to as...

    Question for Messianic Jews

    I am one of Jehovah’s Witnesses.... I worship Yahweh / Jehovah (I don’t mean to offend anyone by using The Name: I feel it’s important to praise His name - Psalms 145:1, etc.) Of course, we consider ourselves Christian...we accept Jesus as our Messiah, and we follow Him. But our worship goes...

    "Anguish of nations...."

    At Luke 21 25-28, Jesus mentioned some fascinating events that would take place.... https://www.jw.org/en/library/bible/study-bible/books/luke/21/#v42021033 Why would there be 'anguish of nations not knowing the way out'? Because of "the roaring of the sea". What does this mean? If we read...

    The source of information systems.

    We have always recognized information systems -- by systems, I mean organized and interacting -- as having mind as it's cause. How this ties in with science..... Comments, anyone? Thoughtful opinions? Derisive accusations?

    If the Universe is Expanding.....

    ...then how can galaxies collide? I mean, gravity would have less and less an effect. Earlier (billions of years ago), when the universe was denser, maybe I could see how. But with expansion continuing.... how could this be predicted? Any Thoughts?

    Fire at a gas pump...

    The other day, saw a guy with a cigarette getting his gas...he got sidetracked, the gas overflowed, soaking his flannel shirt sleeve, and it caught on fire! He was waving it around.... It was a trip. You know, when the police showed up, they gave him a ticket? Yep. They cited him for “waving...

    Hey @Harel13 , hope you are well. In line with moderator @Polymath257 ‘s suggestion, I thought I’d post answers (highlighted in bold) here ... “Still another example illustrating the need to read the context carefully is the question, Who sold Joseph into Egypt? Some have quickly read Genesis...

    What is N. Korea thinking?!

    I put this in the “Ethics” forum, because it fits! Watching the news, they mentioned that the N. Korean gov’t may have an unwanted “Christmas present” for Trump / US Govt, revealing more of Kim’s nuclear ability. While this is going on? What’s his problem?!!! Pretty soon, he may not have anyone...

    Scientists Who Believe in a Creator, and Why.

    I thought this was informative. It just doesn’t give their names, but each one explains why they believe in a Creator. None are YEC’s....I felt it necessary to point that out. “Many experts in various scientific fields perceive intelligent design in nature. They find it illogical to think that...

    Evidence for “a god” at John 10:33

    Almost every version of John 10:33 that I’ve checked, says “God”...that the Jews were saying that Jesus was implying that he was God. Is this accurate? (It certainly fits with mainstream teachings of Christendom.) Well, there is a very easy way to determine what was actually said and meant...

    A Different “Judgment Day” Perspective?

    I think the majority of people have been taught that God’s Judgement Day is ultimately something to fear. Is it? (Notice the description of the Resurrection of Judgement).... What Will Happen on Judgment Day? — Watchtower ONLINE LIBRARY

    How many here, speak with spirit entities?

    If the Moderators want to move this thread, that’s fine; I honestly didn’t know in which Forum to pose this question. Paranormal, maybe? But I wanted to include those who have contact with their religious gods. I am curious, though... Myself, I believe that spirit entities exist, taking many...
