What Bible? there was no Bible in Jesus' time

That's right, Jesus spoke old English just like in the King James Bible

You mean a building with a cross on it? No, we are the church. Where two or three or gathered in my name, that is the church.

Yep, still use the one we first published some 150 years ago, although we've added some in recent years. But we still use a hardcopy with some 400 hymns. We don't use a choir since we're a house church, but we have a piano player.

Let's look at some references: "The pronunciation ‘Jehovah’ is an error resulting among Christians from combining the consonants YHWH with the vowels of ‘adonai’, ‘Lord’, which the Jews, in reading the Scriptures, substituted for the sacred name (YHWH), commonly called ‘the...

First of all, Jesus was resurrected, so he was alive again. The Old Testament saints were all still in their graves. Remember The Bible forbids the people of God from attempting to talk to the dead. The Old Testament teaches that believers are defiled by their attempts at communicating with...

What truth? The truth you taught in 1919 when the great Jehovah chose you as His mouthpiece on earth? Which by the way, you discarded. Or the truth in 1925? Or maybe the truth you taught in 1935 when your leaders say the door to heaven was closed and introduced an earthly class, a door that...

Excuse me? All one has to do is look at your postings and see all you do is criticize anyone who isn't a Jehovah's Witness. So before you point the finger at me, perhaps you should look in the mirror. I'm a consecrated Christian, my heavenly Father knows who I am, and my elder brother Jesus who...

In Hebrew, God's name is written as YHWH. Because ancient Hebrew did not include written vowels, the original pronunciation is unclear. However, there are Greek records that do include vowels, suggesting that the name was probably pronounced as "Yahweh." Around the beginning of the first...

Matthew 17:24-27 makes mention of the "Temple Tax", not Ceaser's tax.

Thanks for the scriptural support :smirk: Actually Gen 2:7 says "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." He became a living soul, not that he was given a soul. So before, he was a dead soul. Many...

Who says I have less energy during the day? I sleep fine, I wake up every morning at 6:00 I workout for about 45 minutes, take a shower and off to work. I'm a letter carrier who walks 15 miles a day in the elements. When I get home, I workout for another 45 minutes, make dinner for me and the...

A covenant He made with them. 31 “Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah— 32 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land...

But don't you think that your organization is guided by holy spirit? If so, then He didn't give up trying. The same can be said of the Watchtower leadership, sure they print Bibles and quote scriptures, but so does the Catholic church. If you as one of Jehovah's Witnesses say you learn your...

Lazarus – An Example that the Soul is not immortal In John 11:11 Jesus said “Lazarus sleepeth.” Lazarus was dead for four days (John 11:39). Surely Jesus would not have retrieved Lazarus from the bliss of heaven. For those four days Lazarus did not go anywhere, nor did he see anyone, nor did he...

The Soul Is Not Immortal If the soul were truly immortal, the soul would be indestructible, yet it is not, because each human born under the curse of Adamic condemnation, dies until the curse shall be lifted up from humanity once Christ’s ransom price has been applied to all mankind. By then...

Other Hidden References There are other important places where the translators also obscured the use of nephesh. “There were certain men, who were defiled by the dead body [nephesh, soul] of a man … those men said unto him, We are defiled by the dead body [nephesh, soul] of a man … If any man...

“The soul that sinneth, it shall die” (Ezekiel 18:4). This brief text expresses a simple truth. Souls die. Against the speculations of some that there is something within a man, a “soul,” which remains alive after death, lingering as a disembodied spirit, the scriptures affirm to the contrary...

This isn't about winning debates, this is about sharing what we believe is scriptural, right or wrong. You made a comment, share your scriptural support for them. It's how we learn from each other.

Your problem is ... you're not "rightly dividing the word of truth aright" - 2 Timothy 2:15. You also keep repeating your "sticking points," but haven't responded to my scriptural comments. "Left behind"? Yes. It was the Truth then, and it continues to be the Truth today, unlike your...
