Correction, Jesus was speaking to the Pharisees when He spoke those words.

The capitalizations are done by the translators, they're are not in the original. Just like "other" is not in 1 Col. 1:16

Apparently, you didn't look carefully, Keiw ... it is indeed ho theos

I agree, he pretty much committed suicide.

There was no cable back then, so I don't think they had A&E

What do you do with 2 Corinthians 4:4, where Satan is referred to as "ho theos"?

They love to twist the scriptures and misapply them. The two groups are not connected. Here's another example of butchering the scriptures from the March 1, 1978 Watchtower, page 25 See what they did there?

Are we not speaking now? Is knocking on doors the only way to reach people? I've lived in this house 10 years, Witnesses have never knocked on my door. Maybe we haven't reached out to you because you declined the invitation to follow Jesus. You see, that's how I found Him, I asked and prayed...

How many "refinements can you have? Can they come up with? How many different interpretations can they come up with for one verse? If it was "refined" as you claim, then it was wrong, and if it was wrong, guess what? then it was ERROR!!! How about a verse ... where is this sacred mystery spoken...

I rest my case. Here you are again, arguing about the ministry. Let me ask you, Jane, what makes you think we don't witness? We're small, as we should be - think "Little Flock" with an emphasis on "little". But we're international. How can your "faithful and wise slave" give you "food at the...

Well, for one thing, I'm not upset, just saddened.

Shepherd, let me ask, how many of those "governing body's" you just mentioned change doctrines and practices as much as a baby's diaper and claim "this is what the Lord God revealed to us today ..." only to change it tomorrow and claim "this is what the Lord God revealed to us today ..." How...

It's sad. I don't think he'll ever recover from this. Hopefully he'll get some help.

Keep in mind, it has been all over the news that this was the worst-kept secret in Nashville, so how could they not know? Or even know of the rumors for 15 years? It was a calculated move to salvage their image.

I'm sorry Jane, I just can't anymore, you say I have an agenda and it seems YOUR agenda is to never answer my questions. It seems it doesn't matter what the subject is, we could be talking about belly buttons, and somehow it always comes back to "we're the only ones fulfilling the great...

What does Trump have to do with this thread? Can you people stay on topic? sheesh!!!!

I have to admit that I'm a huge fan of the band and my wife and I have seen them about a dozen times. Saw the new lineup a few months ago. Interestingly, I have what is called "gaydar", for some reason I can just tell, it has nothing about speech pattern or how they conduct themselves, I just...

If this is true, why aren't other councils of this "Governing Body" mentioned in the scriptures? You'd think there would be several occasions when the Apostles got together. Yet there is not one letter sent out to various congregations signed by a first-century "Governing Body" or Apostles...

Because he chose Saul/Paul Yep, I'm aware of that, isn't that what I said?
