    Envisioning Heaven: No more donuts or football?

    I had a really great reply to this (well, maybe not great) but I can't post it. People wouldn't understand. :Broadly: .

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Sis, I frankly can't understand why this and so many other arguments (not necessarily from yourself, of course) are made in objection to only the 4th commandment. Am I being unreasonable? (I ask this only in the academic sense.) It seems quite often to be related to the idea that the keeping...

    Envisioning Heaven: No more donuts or football?

    Anybody can bang on a drum - lol. Besides, if we're doing that, I'm calling the Adrian Belew spot (even though I can't play a lick). There was a band called "13th Floor Elevators." They made a documentary about the lead guy—Rocky What's-his-name (Erikson?). He went off the rails, I think. .

    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    The 5% figure is subject to change in the event of an unprecedented outpouring of The Holy Spirit. Many of the 95 may be holding their cards for the "last deal." And He did, after all, leave 99 figurative worlds on their own, so to speak, to save ours. So I'd say what we're dealing with here is...

    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    You're so kind to give such a thoughtful and substantive reply. I love your passion as an educator and your keenness to understand and navigate intellectually what's going on around you. I've never really interacted with a Witness before besides a few that have come to my door, and we kind of...

    Envisioning Heaven: No more donuts or football?

    Donuts are barely even food. Try eating nothing for 7 days (no, don't do that) and then eat a peach. The smell of donuts will make you ill. :) .

    You won't like it. I don't play my music loud, except with headphones. 375 miles up! Transparent GOLD! (Description of New Jerusalem begins at 45:00) https://www.youtube.com/live/pBx-UyLSRrs?si=CuxmTIcSvU4DufjG :hearteyes: .

    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    Many folks don't cultivate a constant realization that the primary function of prayer is to bring us voluntarily into conformity to His will. .

    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    You've been avoiding me. I thought we were friends. Or was it me avoiding you? :P .

    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    Hi, Aunty! :waves: I'm just spitballing here, but it seems to me that if He weren't involved, we'd be extinct. Perhaps I could be accused of engaging in semantics here, but I'm not sure it would be just or, at least, fair. If God's creative power isn't "involved" (and I think this word is...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    I hope it isn't God's policy. Because, if it is, we're all lost. You're frightening, by the way. .
