  1. Something about Bible history over the years because there is a surprising amount of people who do not know how far this special book have come, and those who tried to keep it in existence, but yes, merely a suggestion.
  2. @Jack Ryan And yet the same passages direct you to a conclusion of why this is so. Why stop at one verse, when you can continue to figure it all out? For instance, elsewhere in the Torah, there was a time God commanded Moses to do what he had to do because it was for vengeance and of those not cursed and the like, an there are other things and examples. If you want to be specific, by all means please do, for some of these Gotcha Questions tend to be in full force at Hyde for years now, for some of us, we are not as fazed, and you can use ANY translations of your choice.
  3. @Jack Ryan Unless said men are of the church and are taking the command of the Christ, at the same time being of total servitude of God, thus, under God, guides the flock, the people of the church, for these so called men of the church are as if they are shepherds. But clearly when one tries to dwell on the Bible alone, they think men become souls and or become as if they are angel hybrids, for if you do not some elementary guidance from a guide, a shepherd, you are going to wall of a cliff. If you are in error and someone corrects you, you do the research, otherwise you will fall of a cliff. If you do not know where you are walking.... You are going to fall off a cliff. Pretty much you can easily fall off a cliff at any given time, furtively, and yes, to some degree, literally. Also the final part of that verse even tells is of men who turn away from God, why didn't you also highlight that part? So your next problem is men who didn't turn away from God. What of it then?
  4. @Jack Ryan You do realize Christians are under the New Covenant....... Right? Wouldn't it be wise if the game was in play in regard of the New Testament instead? But if it is a game you want, it is a game you shall have so I leave you with a very complex question: How can you have free will if it is punishment for disobedience? You go first, New Testament only. This question I received from an Agnostic a while back, 1-2 years back, was a bit in error until I finally figured it out and returned the favor.
  5. Reddit.... I am having flashbacks. But I think I have said something before, whereas anyone can be tied to any culture, practice and or whatever. For someone can be doing what is correct, while another can do something that is incorrect, despite both persons being under the same house, the same rules, the same culture, etc. For us, when we were young, we were always told never to go into the beach waters because there is not one to witness the zone and there is no one going to save you should the water take you. Such a rule is given to several people, in this case, children, some will listen, some will eventually break the rules, despite all of them being under the same rule, but over time, some of them break the rules, some suffer the consequence of nearly being swept away, others end up being swept away and succumb to both drowning and death. Not the best example, but to some degree, it can be looked at like this: 10 people can be of the same faith but only 4 out of the 10 are doing what many of said faith abides by, 3 others try to do what is of their faith but do whatever they please, while the rest are entirely cut off and having a total double life. But is usually depends, as we speak, due to this sport celebrity, there is a war zone in another comment section going off (Yahoo), and as you can already tell, opponents are using such as ammunition against their targets. But yes, as for reputation, some people love to kick a man, or a woman, when their down, for there is no such honor in doing such.
  6. That is because good men are often the ones who become victim, an example I can give is a guy who stops a conflict, only to end up being killed by a Pole-Stick. There is a story of this, and there is footage, deemed way too graphic, and as it is said, he was trying to be the good guy. This is one of the reasons why people do not always get involved, no matter the situation, if they do try to get involved, they give minor help and or advise so that the person and of victim can carry on from there. Among the worse places to be a "good guy" is Brazil, and there have been many good guys that are now laying in Sheol, the same can be said for many. There is no precise way to deal with evil, therefore it is always taking a chance with a probability of success.
  7. And corruption, where it is, there is always a problem, many people, even my own, get the worse of it, one of the reason why I await for all badness to be purged for good because for some of us it drowns out our culture entirely and the new young ones who come will be engulfed in that change and badness and think the negative things are good, when in reality it is bad.
  8. The sad reality is no one knows what the Agenda is, but the so and so in the deep state thinks we, the people do not know.
  9. I see it now when I rechecked my notes, I was comparing all oldest sources into one category, and had noted the Septuagint on my original list having the Vaticanus noted to be in connection with the Seeptugaint as with 2-3 other codex of which I pulled from a very old source, in regards to such not having GOD/THEOS, under it I have B (not listed), Aleph, A, C, and D, 2 others not listed and we have the Patristic Witnesses. In the correct listing in it's original place it is Which and or HE, but never does one see God until very later on when such was added to the text itself, and because of this, Trinitarians will go out of their way to paint Jesus as God when in reality he is not. The next problem they face is of whom Paul revealed in writing afterwards, for if a Trinitarian makes the claim Jesus is God, they also go out of their way to address that Paul later on spoke of the Christ, therefore, they have somehow got themselves 2 Jesuses, which will cause problems for them. I pulled this from my notes after go back in all my writings and was going about a specific codex. The Manuscript Evidence Manuscript Common Name Date Text B Codex Vaticanus ca. 300 Does not contain 1 Timothy Aleph Codex Sinaiticus ca. 350 who was manifest in flesh A Codex Alexandrinus ca. 450 who was manifest in flesh C Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus ca. 450 who was manifest in flesh D Codex Claromontanus ca. 550 which was manifest in flesh Peshitta Coptic Ethiopic Sahidic which was manifest in flesh Gothic which was manifest in flesh Patristic Witness Quotations of 1 Timothy 3:16 in the Fathers Author Reference Date Evidence Comments Ante-Nicene Church All Writings 70-325 A.D.

  10. The situation worsens there by the day, and the economy is so bad that money from a video game seems to surpass it (https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/08/world/world-of-warcraft-token-worth-more-than-venezuelas-currency-trnd/index.html). But yes, this country will not do so well as long as the corruption thrives there. One my source of which I view went there before, he was nearly killed there, that is how bad it is now. The horrid thing is good people are mixed in with the bad as the bad commits chaos and problems for others.
  11. @JW Insider No worries and thanks. I said what I said because I know if I had never saved that information, not knowing he will delete his current and a year old post on Glasgow, he would say something entirely different, for I had only saved it to make note of what to research on, only to find out Sostar deleted both post at the same time. But this is common on some forums, for someone will say something, then deleted it afterwards when people see it, and when it is brought up again, the original poster will speak negatively and act as if his own words do not belong to him, but when one have a snippet of what is deleted and or in full, the tables turn quickly and what is said remains on whatever forum in question for as long as the forum exist, which is the case here. So if anyone, even guests, who want to see the whole Glasgow thing, they see it there, should anyone opposite to them take what Sostar had said with seriousness, the actual information is there that says otherwise. But yes, everyone makes mistaken, even me, for I tend to dwell on things with minor paranoia, other times, when dealing with oneness and Trinity believers I tend to get irritated and often go overboard only to correct myself after, mainly when I do not have my research notes with me, when I forget something that becomes an issue. But in Sostar's case, he is just a different case entirety. But yes, some people learn things, some people have a hard time learning, while others do not learn at all.
  12. The good thing is, she is not practicing the pagan practice of celebration of one's birth, and or allowing the practice of Artemis to enter into the home in regards to good and evil spirit teachings. The irony here is elsewhere, non-religious people are throwing down the facts about Birthdays and or celebration of one's birth in connection to paganism. If anything, Jesus told us one thing, to remember his death and what it means.
  13. From my experience, Witch Doctors do not rely on jobs, well the ones who plague the Caribbean islands of course. If anything, they tend to rely on supporters, those who support them and the like, and such ones will do the most vicious of things and even will kill and or target someone. I know because I lost a cousin, she was age 16, and 2 uncles to such ones (all of whom who had been killed in a brutal fashion, one of my uncles were poisoned by them) and the greatest among them are the more demonic type, the only reason some in the country will say there is demon influence and or manifestation among them because such ones are quite hardcore in this practice. It is also the reason why some have issue with blood, for that is what such ones are after in some cases. I also recall, on another forum I use to be part of, a Christian Youth Group had the night of their life when they didn't know they camped too close to a Witch Doctor's hideout, this is why one cannot be dwelling on forbidding areas in the first place, furthermore, lot some people also, even among JWs were killed by such ones and evil people such as these only thrive because they make their practice popular and they have culturalized it, and because of political corruption, such ones get stronger everyday. As they say among my people, si ce ne sont pas les rebelles qui vous attrapent pendant la journee, c'est le monstre de la nuit qui le fait meaning: if it isn't the rebels that get you during the day, it is the monster of the night that do. That being said, people are more concern with what a religious faith is doing with the money, mainly if such is to help the people of the church and to help others, as well as advancing the gospel. One of the biggest reason I am somewhat strict when it comes to the Bible is because wickedness at that level I want God to purge entirely, for such things my people face are stuff of nightmares, and all of us witness far more dangerous things than a Witch Doctor. As for the many people killed by them and rebels combined, these people I want to be resurrected, for they didn't deserve the worse they got from demonic persons and the wicked will get theirs since God is not a fan of sorcery.
  14. As in who gave us the number, the website of which you listed states it very clearly, the links for your website states the following (I'll link you the glossary on the final part):  You didn't rely on the video because the video in question even tells you of who will come to Glasgow and the venues of which they will reside in, the video's title, of which you relied on states the following: The December 2017 (December 9, 2017) comment made by you was of your own design, not of anyone else, for their concern is being part of the world or not, you took it a step further by stating the following: JWorg attracted thousands of people and millions of pounds to Scotland on XX Commonwealth Games, Glasgow 2014. When this thread existed, it only pointed back to one source when goggle searched: Srecko Sostar. You also went on to say the following: video reveal JWorg in sport and business events, Glasgow 2014. OR UK TV news  REPORTERS WERE LIE? Among some Scottish Products :))) is JWorg. How many JW rank and files surfed on you-tube, in 2014 and after, to find out what was been actual in 2014, and be in time with activities of their religion? ~ Sostar If anyone looks at that video, they themselves can clearly see this was not the case, not even outlandish sources would make that remark either and this was pointed out by you and only you when the video gave a clue of something entirely different. Mind you, as I said before, everyone else' concern was those being part of the world or not, hence why some of the comments were deleted by the poster, but no one made claim to what you have stated, not even part of it alludes to such of what you stated. The other thread you deleted, in connection to this in discussion, you even stated that the JWs were running a business this way, this was prior to when you deleted everything as of July 18th, 2018. Indeed this was a mistake, but what was added into the mix was of your design, no one else, be it members of the faith, disgruntled ones, and or other. I mean everyone makes error, even me, but going this far is silly. You'd be surprised when your information was passed on. Let's just say an Arab had a few words to say on this matter, and people do read into things, and also tend to connect it with something and or someone. Everyone is aware, regardless of their faith and or background, that the venue was of used 2 weeks after the sporting event, I mean, the Hydro SSE is quite the spectacular venue, who could miss that when it is the talk of the ton to some? Everyone makes errors, even JWs, for a I told you before, we are all imperfect and it is the price of which we pay, for there is good and there is bad, something of which you took issue with before also. Here is the Link of which I had mentioned, therefore, understanding is of importance: https://abr.business.gov.au/Help/Glossary  If the Awesome Church is registered as a Business Name/Number, it does not make them a legitimate business (and lord and behold, it can be looked up and found, even though I do not take kindly to Trinitarians, their ABN can be found and is in connection with a legitimate source), just another religious institution, the same case can be made of any of whom is of religious position and or non-profit. No one is asking to stone you, they are merely asking you to read into things, for yes we do make errors, but to continue to make error upon error upon error and using said error only shows you, be it corrected or not, do not take the time to read into things. I myself tend to jump to conclusion on things, mainly when someone says something that does not bode well with me or something else, but at least, later on I try to learn something. You must do the same also otherwise one can accept what Gone Away have stated of your words, flawed. That being said, that is all that will be said of you and the other things speak for itself, like you having yet to show me the truth of Chloe elsewhere. But will leave it at that because because you expect so-and-so to save you for a second time, it won't happen here, nor ever again, hence why I am more aware of how you tend to do things.
  15. There is only 3 forms of shunning/expelling, each faith practices either of the 3, be it Christian, Judaism and or Islam, but among Christianity, all 3 is in practice by each group, only 1 form of it is correct. They do not completely cut off their child, as some, even former JWs have made claim to this only to be targeted by disgruntled JWs. When someone is expelled from a church, they are cut-off from church ties entirely, although can still attend, they are not allowed to partake and or be part of sermons and or some actions taken within the church, but family ties still remain, even regarding that of children. When the child is obviously older and dwells upon Apostasy, should he or she chooses that path, family ties still remain, but there will be a clear atmosphere when it comes to those who practice a faith vs. those who are interfaith and or is disgruntled towards the faith. Just because one is expelled and or shunned, it does not stop someone from taking action to go to visit a relative and or a friend, mainly when the one who is both expelled and shunned is not an Apostate or one who spreads interfaith division among the fold. But as I said before, it expelling/shunning is indeed a problem to you, you'd have to speak on against what Binding and Loosening mean, for I can assure you if Jesus never had entrusted the church with such abilities, expelling/shunning would not be a thing at all, but you have to come to the realization as to why excommunication/shunning commands exist. I also said you it is not as bad as the Herem version whereas all ties of any sort is completely cut off from the church, the people, the family, even the town/community as a whole, and you are not even allowed inside a place of worship at all. But it does make me curious, of which of Jesus commanded and what the Apostles, even Paul practiced, in your eyes, what is the right form of expelling/shunning practices among the 3 major ones you profess? I had another source, but I have to look for it, this is the best I can do for now: http://shamelesspopery.com/biblical-excommunication/
  16. @JW Insider It was regarding his Glasgow comment from a while back of which he put forth before, only after doing some research I see the errors and made the response, even not yielding upon assumption. He quickly deleted both comments from Dec. 2017 and Jul. 2018, in the same thread he used a registry and or census via link to make proof of an owned business, location being Australia if I remember correctly, when actually seeing the link itself we do not see any proof of an owned business or corporation, just a listed non-profit and nothing more, granted such websites that have a registry of this kind have a list of institutions and other things. Not sure but you had a bit of a presence on this thread too from a while back. The deleted item linked was done immediately on Sostar's part when the research have been made, for if it was not for the research my response would have been different. As for the video that came from the now deleted 2017 post by him, it can still be found on YouTube of which it paints the faith as being part of the world and or sponsoring a sporting event or banking on it for that matter, when in reality, they simply rented out the Hydro venue weeks after the sporting event. Some of us may be quick to assume things and or say something and later do the research if need be, but it was and never is the case with this man, as to wherever and anywhere he is seen. @TrueTomHarley The thing is we have a big enemy, an enemy people are not paying attention to, and it is only drawing in more converts, all one can do is avoid such, be vigilant and be aware, and be very very careful. There are some things I have to further do research on to find more information, some of which even overwrites what I already know, but the more you go deeper into these things, the more you want to seek. Another problem for me, as do some, most sources I rely on have gotten axe'd since the whole Alex Jones thing and it is not that easy as it use to be to seek out clear information as of late. That being said, I had been recommend a small source of which I am getting use to for some days now regarding things in the EU, especially Russia. Other than that, after what went down for my people, I, as do others, tend to be a bit paranoid at times.
  17. The thing here is, it is considered the oldest and most reliable source, as well as to what connects to it, and it is indeed known by all, even to those of other faiths, well, those who try to take in the information if possible. If there is an error you see here, by all means you can response for when I speak of the Septuagint, I speak of it as well as anything in regards to the 4th century in connection to it. To some degree it does, mainly to what we have which is in connection with The Septuagint itself or 4th century sources, for it is the only reason as to why I said what I said, putting them in the same category as the oldest and most reliable source, which is indeed true compared to the 16th century or Textus Receptus based changes that did not originate with any of the older sources as seen when comparing some Translations to the KJV/NKJV. The problem here is because the verse in question states GOD/THEOS when in reality it does not say, some people are quick to think of Jesus as God when in reality, this is not the case, the thought of such makes it very confusing and odd, even to the one who professes such, one of the reason why the some people, even today will push this on to others believing this is actual truth when one can realize for themselves GOD is not included in the verse itself, and it is , irritating when met with KJV-Onlyist and Trinitarians seem to champ that of the 16th century over the oldest source itself. The verse in it's original form only says Who/He, some translations being equal to that at the same time in respects to the Strong's, but nowhere do we see the word GOD being used unless it is a TR or a something similar to a 1245, and even some revised Translations omitted GOD from the verse, and for good reason.
  18. @Jesus.defender The Deserter has returned. This has nothing t do with Jehovah's Witnesses, but rather, The Septuagint, The Oldest and Most Reliable Source of which the Bible originates from and it is known by ALL persons who know of and study it, me included. Once again, you shot yourself in the foot, purposely, and actual Textual Criticism defeats you before you can even take a step. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_New_Testament_verses_not_included_in_modern_English_translations http://www.biblebookprofiler.com/The_Forgery_of_I_Timothy_3_16.html I've also covered the first one, with ease: Now on to the other stuff,  GOD/THEOS (????) was added into the text in the 16th century when the original manuscripts (The Septuagint) does not say TEHOS (????) at all, therefore, 1 Timothy 3:16, as re-written in the KJV is seen as both a forgery and a grave error. For the FACTS even shows us that The manuscript evidence, and the immediate context, shows the King James Version (KJV) reading was not authored by Apostle Paul. As seen on Biblehub, THEOS (????) is nowhere to be found: https://biblehub.com/lexicon/1_timothy/3-16.htm THEOS (God/????) Greek Strong’s: https://biblehub.com/greek/2316.htm Your next problem is Apostle Paul later revealed the mystery who had manifested, Christ Jesus, of whom CAME FROM GOD who has been REVAELED, according to Paul: Quoting myself: On to the next one,  Stauros is an upright Pole, with no cross-beams, this upright Pole is also Tree-Like according to evidence by means of the Scriptures and historical Roman information. You can look up the Strong’s here: https://biblehub.com/greek/strongs_4716.htm The irony here is the practice and usage of the Cross came about 400 years AFTER Jesus’ death, furthermore, Maryas (The Torment of Maryas) predates Christ Jesus and even he himself was crucified on an upright Pole aka Stauros. FACT: Since it took approximately 400 years for Jesus’s crucifixion to become an acceptable public image, scholars have traditionally believed that this means the cross did not originally function as a symbol for Christians. The Torment of Maryas: https://itsartalicious.wordpress.com/2015/03/12/the-torment-of-marsyas-greek-sculpture/ https://www.louvrebible.org.uk/index.php/louvrebible/default/rewrite/oeuvre-47/The-Torment-of-Marsyas-,-Cross-or-stake? I dare you to look at those verses in Greek and you can see for yourself, there is no cross. If you want crosses, I suggest you head over to the Tammuz fan club. Because that is the truth, Jesus gave his life, in regards to prophecy, to free us from sin and death, giving mankind a chance to actually seek amnesty and be of God’s favor, hence the Life and Resurrection. It gives people a chance to learn who God is and who his Son is, be obedient to what God’s Word says by means of the Scriptures and the like, and those who refuse or those who do not listen to the Word will perish, for there is no middle ground, you are either for life or for death – the choice is for you to make. Plus the Bible says several times God is incorruptible, and is not like us men or a son of man.  New Heavens and New Earth is symbolic. As for the Earth, as in New Earth, if you actually read the references, it is in regards to all human authority being replaced by God’s authority under his Kingdom, of which he places Jesus in charge of (remember Zechariah’s vision), furthermore, Psalms 104:5 and Ecclesiastes 1:4 makes it abundantly clear to us of the Earth itself. You can put dirt and grim on a diamond and get rid of the dirt and grim with water, the diamond is still there and is not destroyed by water. For you to think the earth itself will be literally replaced with a New Earth, when God’s promise says otherwise only shows you no nothing of the Bible, but if you want to accept the idea of literal New Earths, I am sure the Comic Book stores are happy to help your fill for any of the latest DC or Marvel Comics of New Earths literally replacing an actual Earth. Have some sense. None of those verses you point to state people will be moved to a New Earth, Truly, Truly, I say on to you, of you, the idiocy within you shows.  Humans are not Spirits nor is an Afterlife. This belief stems from Immortal Soul Doctrine and the practices of Sorcery and other things, Spiritism to the extreme. When a man dies, he dies, and he remains in Hades until the Resurrection. We already see examples of this before in the Bible. The Soul is the Life and or the person, so when the lights go out, it stays out and goes nowhere. We see nowhere in the Bible that anyone experienced some afterlife situation at all in the Bible, we can talk about Lazarus or the little Girl, the both of them never spoke of being somewhere while dead, for in death, when you die, you die, thus everything with you perishes for good, only until the Resurrection, such ones, powerless by the earth, according to Isaiah, will return to Life again. You also show yourself to not believe and or understand what The Life and Resurrection even means or when Judgement will take place.  Because Hell is not the Lake of Fire, nor is it a place of enteral torment. For if Hell was truly the Lake of Fire, why must The Lake of Fire be cast into the Lake of Fire as seen in Revelations 20:14? Or perhaps is King David, a man of God, he himself in a fiery torment, for after all he made his bed in Hell (Psalms 139:8), or maybe all persons who have died was in Hell alongside David, for Lazarus and the Little Girl didn’t come back to life shaken in fear for a place of which God watches eternally as people burn over and over again. This doctrine you follow is the very reason why people think God is not a God of Love, furthermore, God himself, in the Old Testament, The Torah even says the following about Fire Torment: I did not command or decree, nor did it come into my mind— (mind you, God said this not once, but a few times when it comes to fire torment). If you get the giddies from people burning forever and ever, you seriously need help, perhaps seek out your nearest Psychologist, for it is persons like you who turn people away from the Bible with the silly doctrine of fire torment. That being said, when we die, we all go to Hades, be it Sheol or Hell, whatever floats your boat and holds your fishnets. There are 2 groups of the New Covenant. Those selected for Priesthood, the other being those having Eternal Life. Regardless, both groups confess the Christ and they confess on to the one who Resurrected the Christ, that being, God YHWH himself, who saves. Yes, and Christians should be very careful not to adhere to and or teach false and accursed teachings, kind of like the one you are professing, which is deemed to be false, we must not forget about your response to Anna a while back which was not only wrong, but shows you barely read the Bible for context, therefore, persons like you can easily mislead a person and or masses of persons easily.  Ephesians 1:20-22 speaks of The Christ being at the right hand of God, while Philippians 2:9 speaks of Jesus not taking plunder to be equal to God. God’s name YHWH (Yahweh/Jehovah) is a great name as is spoken of to be The Personal and Divine Name, the Proper name of the God of Israel: https://biblehub.com/hebrew/3068.htm | https://www.blueletterbible.org/lang/lexicon/lexicon.cfm?t=esv&strongs=h3068 Another factor is Jesus’ name [Jesus] means Yahweh/Jehovah is Salvation (Yah/Jah saves for short), evidence of the Strong’s even shows us too: https://biblehub.com/greek/2424.htm   | https://www.blueletterbible.org/lang/lexicon/lexicon.cfm?t=esv&strongs=g2424  Psalms 146:3, 4, Ecclesiastes 3:19, Ecclesiastes 9:10 says otherwise, even Jesus in John 3:13: No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man. So much for calling yourself “Jesus Defender” if you do not even accept what Jesus himself had said.  Religious Worship and /Servitude is to God and only God himself, for even Jesus said this when being tempted by Satan. Yes, these verses have the word worship in it, but never do we see anyone religious worship the Christ over God himself. But it is no surprise that someone such as yourself would confuse the word worship to think it is religious worship. May I ask, when Lot worshipped the Angels, or when Sarah worshiped Abraham, why keep quite on such things? Look up the word worship and do not be a fool hen it comes to the actually meaning, usage and unique usages: https://biblehub.com/greek/4352.htm I even spoke of such before:  None of this verse speak of a physical presence. The only thing of which we can see is the signs of the times and when Jesus does return he cannot and will not be seen. The only thing that took place a while back was Satan had been cast out of Heaven, and Jesus became a King. The verse even tells you “The Sign of the Son of Man”, furthermore, verses like John 14:19 gives one a clue that the return would be invisible. For if we, as humans, should be able to see Spirits and even Satan himself or perhaps go into space and see God’s angels, but this is not the case, the same can be said of the Christ. We should be focused on the Signs as well as the Signs of the Son of Man himself. For the Christ was resurrected as a spirit person (1 Peter 3:18). He soon went to heaven and sat at God’s right hand (Psalm 110:1). Later on, he, Jesus, was brought before God, The Ancient of Days, who granted Jesus authority and power to rule over mankind. Therefore, when Jesus returns, he does not come back as a human for such a time had already passed, but rather, The King would come back invisible (Daniel 7:13, 14). He won’t be alone either, his angels of whom he will lead will be with him. He will destroy wicked people but grant eternal life to those who accept him as King, read for context Matthew 25:31-33, 46. Copy and Paste, Copy and Paste, as I told you before, you like to Copy and Paste. Your silly ignorant exegesis has already been dealt with, Deserter. And yet Paul calls Jesus an Angel in Galatians 4:14. Jesus is also spoken of not as a Prophet, but a Messenger (Angel) of whom as sent by God and is called the Word for speaking God’s Word (Shaliah Principle). Jesus being Michael is not a new idea, in fact, this belief was present around the early Second Century and so forth. After all only one person cast Satan the Devil and his Demons out of Heaven and only one person warned the demons of their incoming sentence of Eternal Destruction, for the warning and the battle in Heaven cannot occur twice, for such events only happened once.Think really hard about that and do the research. Isaiah 9:6 is of Jewish customs, naming a child or place in representation of whom they represent, therefore, Jesus is not God, but is spoken of to be of God. Read up on Jewish Customs and Laws and learn something. John 1:1 does not prove anything either when the cross-references points to verses like Deuteronomy 18:18, and another reference telling you who was indeed the first of God’s creations and who was the one to be The Firstborn out of Death, there is only one person associated with such, and that is Jesus. Hebrews 13:8 does not prove anything at all, just tells you Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. If Jesus says his only God is the Father, even going as far as to commit Shema, surely Jesus has not changed on this very fact mentioned.  Unless you want to explain to the class of how someone who is "co-eternal" is called Firstborn out of the Dead and The First of the Fruits, these 2 things Trinitarians like yourself cannot answer and or speak of because it goes against your own Doctrine when the Bible speaks of such, perhaps you are among those who sees Paul as a lair, for Paul's comment about Jesus being like that of an Angel was easily avoided by you. Consider yourself burned and rinsed because you made a fool of yourself, once again, you make both a clown and a mine look far more superior at this point. That being said, this is simply Original Christian beliefs vs that of a Trinitarian puppy who does not really no much about his Bible. - that puppy being you. Therefore it can be said, Ye knoweth nothing of the Scriptures.
  19. @TrueTomHarley He, Mr. Sostar (not to be confused with the Japanese character by a similar name) is heavily misguided to the point he will use vague and or his own opinions and interpretations to make a point, some of which he has no proof of and or valid information, and at times even the Bible itself defeats his own words, and to this day his December 2017 claim will forever be immortalized on this forum prior to him sweeping his claims under the rug or him trying to use a Registry and Census as proof of owning a business, the irony here it is nothing to do with information from sources that is murky, the information he posed was of his own design. Other than that he reminds me of the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland, but far more cryptic, flawed and giggles spontaneously. One thing for certain, when proven wrong, the giggles stop in a following response, therefore, he is running on E when it comes to giggles at that point. That being said, it is the time of year again, and we know how these things are. If I am not mistaken this group has reached a high number before for these assemblies, this includes all languages, for even their other services they hit the 20,175,477 mark. The only concern is Gangstalking being a possibility, who target people of race, sex, nationality, color, religion, faith, background or even perhaps the state they live in, or perhaps the color of their eyes even or the way they dress/groom, etc. so it would not be a surprise if such ones somehow enter into or end up near these assemblies this faith group, so vigilance is key in such situations as well as awareness.
  20. Assembly can mean many things, in this case, it is a group of people gathered together in one place for a common purpose and or the action of gathering together as a group for a common purpose. Pretty much a place where a great multitude of people gather for the same thing, turning Bible pages in unison I suppose. In this sense, it can be applied to a large warehouse or work environment, example, Toyota or Honda manufacturing areas where workers assemble together for the same type of work function. Or it can be applied to a group.
  21. Not really, however the funny thing about Wikipedia, it is said anyone can edit the information, or so I've heard. It is also a breeding ground for trolls.
  22. Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restorationism) and (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restorationism#Jehovah's_Witnesses), but if we are to get into the realm of detail: Anthony L. Dunnavant, The Encyclopedia of the Stone-Campbell Movement: Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), Christian Churches/Churches of Christ, Churches of Christ, Wm. B. Eerdmans (2004) which has an entry on Restoration. Gerard Mannion and Lewis S. Mudge, The Routledge companion to the Christian church, Routledge (2008) p.634. Encyclopedia of Religion in the South, p.665, Samuel S. Hill, Charles H. Lippy, Charles Reagan Wilson (2005) "An Anabaptist, Servetus believed what has always been basic to restorationism: ... the true, apostolic church .... Restorationists in the South include three churches of the STONE-CAMPBELL TRADITION." Although the Wikipedia says what it says, the information is pulled from what is mentioned above. Most of the JW sources on that page ordinates from the Watchtower, as well as the Bible Students information, for instance, Militarism and Navalism - How Long?" by Charles Taze Russell, Watch Tower (January 1, 1916) page 5. There are more references also in this regard. The Apostolic Early Church points back to everything and anything regarding the Apostolic Age - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostolic_Age of which the actual sources can be found in the references.
  23. 1 Peter 2:5 - you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. References: Ephesians 2:2,1 Hebrews 13:15, Romans 12:1 As for stones, it is figurative, but one can only imagine if man were stones (stone-men), swimming in water would be the last thing on your mind.
  24. @James Thomas Rook Jr. Regardless of where you are, you are a stone (A Living Stone according to the Bible) of the house, thus any contribution of service to the Spiritual House helps the whole church thrive, mainly when it comes to maintaining the teachings of the Bible and the practices and applications made by the Early Church. For we are all part of Her, The Church, and our roles in the Church help us as a whole - for the Church is not merely a place of worship, but it is a community of people of the same faith and do what is needed to seek actually truth and if they have the truth they maintain it.
