2 | Pledge, "under God", WWJD? | Bible general Archive 2 | Aniset | 106279 | ||
For one Jesus would not say the pledge. His allegiance goes to the Father. We can respect the laws of the land without pledging our love and devotion to a flag. |

I know his point. The point is that Christmas is taught in the church, by the parents and on TV. Everyone is so rapped up in the Christmas customs that those of us that don't teach our children that Christmas is a holy day are condemned. A lie is a lie. There is no santa, Christ was not born on that day. And there is no reason for a Christian to teach their children such untruths. |

Tim we were never told to remember his birth, only his death. Luke 22:19 There is a reason That his birth date was never disclosed in the bible. And also note that his disciples who Knew him well didn't celebrate his birth. There were only two births in the bible. And nither were GODS people. Pharaoh Gen 40:20-22, Herod Matthew 14:6-10 and on both days some one was killed. So even though you don't teach them about santa are you teaching them the truth about the worship God accepts. |

Tom, you made many statements in your note to me. I would like to address them one by one. 1) You said “With so much material from Watchtower to read, the one book they neglect for answers is the Bible.” “Every year, with thousands of pages of Watchtower material to read, e.g. lessons, books, magazines, and such, but limited Bible reading assigned”. You were correct in part. Yes Jehovah’s Witnesses do have a much material to read. Our material is bible based. That means that the foundation of our publications is from the bible. However you are incorrect in saying that we neglect the bible for answers. We take bible reading very seriously. Jehovah’s Witnesses greatly appreciate their Bible study aids, including The Watchtower, and use these regularly. But we know that none of them take the place of the Bible itself. We never forget that the Bible is our Standard and that however God-given our helps may be they are ‘helps’ and not substitutes for the Bible. We carefully examined the Scriptures daily’ to determine the Scriptural basis for what was being taught.—Acts 17:11. Daily Bible reading will help us to “walk worthily of Jehovah to the end of fully pleasing him” instead of allowing the world to squeeze us into its mold.—Colossians 1:9, 10; Romans 12:2. 2) You said “Jesus instructed HIS FOLLOWERS in Acts 1:8 “You will be MY WITNESSES … even to the remotest parts of the earth.” “And they were JESUS CHRIST’S witnesses, as stated in Acts 11:26 that the disciples first came to be known as CHRISTians.” That is also correct. That is when the disciples were first called Christians. However, Do you recall Revelation 1:5 “And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness.” Jesus Christ came to bare witness to his father. By bearing witness to the truth, Jesus glorified the name of his heavenly Father. (John 17:4, 6) He laid bare religious falsehoods, preached the good news of the Kingdom, and opened the door to spiritual freedom for those in religious bondage. (Matthew 15:3-9; Luke 4:43; John 18:37). Did you know that we too do this? There are Kingdom Halls of Jehovah’s witnesses in over 230 lands worldwide and in every language. We also show that we are followers of Jesus by doing the work that he sent his disciples to do at Luke 10:1-3. Jesus sent his followers out to the people. From House to house. And that my friend is why Jehovah’s Witnesses go knocking on doors in the rain sleet and snow. We practice loving our neighbors as we do ourselves. We have information from the bible. Not anything that we have made up, heard or assume to be true. Only that which can be proven from the Holy bible. “We must obey God as ruler rather than men.” (Acts 5:29) 3) You said “Speaking of Watchtower. Does that CD ROM have access to old copies of their literature? You know, the ones that PROPHECED things that embarrassed The Society almost into extinction.” Well Tom, yes we do have access to all the old literature. The Watchtower Society does not try and hide their mistakes from us. And your right that was a very embarrassing thing. But let me ask you something Tom, Have you ever made a mistake in your family that may have embarrassed the family and you had to correct it? Well this is also something that had to be corrected. The only way to correct these things is from diligent and thorough study of the scriptures. By doing this we also learned of other things that needed correcting. Did you know that witnesses also use to smoke(Romans 12:1), take blood (Genesis 9:4, Acts 15:20), and wear the cross? (1 Cor. 10:14, 1John 5:21). Because of careful bible study we see that these things should not be done by followers of Christ. 4) you said Jehovah’s Witnesses won’t accept any other bible except NWT. Well that is not true. We use KGV, Today’s English version, NASB and others. We do prefer the NWT because Jehovah’s name put in the proper places. The name Jehovah was in the Original Holy Scriptures over 7000 times. In most newer bibles the name Jehovah is replaced with Lord. This makes it harder for people to understand that there is a difference between Jehovah the father and Jesus the Son. Also notice that most people cannot understand the language in the KGV. This is also why there have been so many different translations published. People have a desire to understand what they read. So before you criticize the New World Translation compare bibles for yourself. It helps us all to understand what we read. |

Colin, My job is simply to preach GODS words. I am aware that all will not accept. However, whenever there is someone that is interested in learning more about GODS word the bible all I can do is offer my services. Sometimes it helps when we can have one one help. Take note Colin, everyone has a choice to do what they want. If they do or don't want to study with a Jehovah's Witness it's up to them. I am not trying force the word on anyone. I have also heard many things on this forum that has no bibical foundation, but you don't see me telling people not to talk to you. I posted my e-mail address because 1. I wanted to share the bible's message in an organized way with someone that seemed interested. 2. I saw someone else leave their e-mail address and nothing was said. So I thought it was okay. So are you complaining because I am a Witness or because I have done something wrong? If I have done something wrong or offended Classy, Please forgive me. Take time yourself to find out what we believe and why we believe it before you pass judgement. I am not trying to take anything from you. If you know the truth about something share it. And if you would like to know more about Jehovah's Witiness beliefs you can e-mail me as well. I am not trying to convert youor argue with you. |

Be careful! "You said that Jesus is the uncreated son of God." That's not what the forum rules say. It says begotten, that means created, made, Fathered etc. Maybe we should put you off the forum. "We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is the only Begotten Son of God, conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary." |

14 | when was lucifer kicked out of heaven | Genesis | Aniset | 117631 | ||
Genesis 1:1-5 is explaining creation, Day,Night,Water, Earth etc.. However, Revelation wich is a prophey of the last days says at Revelation 12:7 That a war broke out in Heaven. And the 9th verse says that Satan was then cast down onto the earth. It would be helpful to read 12:1-10 it sheds more light on the topic. |

16 | WTB Show where is the devil kicked out. | Genesis | Aniset | 117655 | ||
We can't go on what we think. We can only prove what the bible says. The bible helps us to see that Satan had not been kicked out of heaven in the beginning because he was still able to to go between earth to heaven in the book of Job 2:2. You said:"how could He create something formless and void?" You must remember that One day to God is like one thousand days to us. 2Peter 3:8 So the bible is not talking about 7 literal days. |

18 | satans real name | Is 14:12 | Aniset | 114617 | ||
Lucifer means:SHINING ONE (Isaiah 14:12). So although the Name Lucifer is not their the meaning is still the same. The term "Lucifer" is found only once in the Scriptures and that at Isaiah 14:12. Even this, however, is true of only certain versions, such as the King James, Douay, An American Translation, Knox and Darby. The American Standard Version and the Revised Standard Version use the expression "Day Star"; Rotherham, "Shining One"; Moffatt, "shining star." The King James Version at Isaiah 14:12, 13 reads: "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north." The Hebrew word here translated Lucifer is Heylél. In the Septuagint Version it is rendered by the Greek word Heosphóros, which means "bringer of dawn." In Jerome's Latin Vulgate Version this word is translated "Lucifer," which accounts for its appearance in other versions, especially in Catholic versions. To appreciate just how the term "Lucifer". |
