    I agree fully sir. That is why I post here, likely why you do as well.

    What is Sin?

    Does obeying traffic laws conflict with God's laws? No sir, our obedience to the earthly authorities is part of our faith Rom 13. So failure to adhere to those laws is actually a sin. Red lights irritate the heck out of me most of the time. We live in a city that is basically incapable of...

    Soulwinning vs Proselytizing

    Very true sir, all will enter into life through the new covenant, from all tribes nations peoples and tongues. One thing you are not mentioning however is the majority of Christians are the other sheep not of the saintly fold. Those inherit the earth and reside forever upon it. Ps 37:29; Mat 5:5

    Very good sir, in fact those anointed ones are referred to as the bride of Christ.

    The promises of God

    Yes sir, wonderful promises, and just as sure as His existence His promises will not go unfulfilled. One that I truly look forward to is when that last enemy death will be destroyed Rev 21:4. What about the one where Jehovah will open His hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing Ps...

    "Salvation" is the gift of Eternal Life - it's FOREVER.

    Amen Scotty! The gift that God gives to those who accepts His salvation.

    Ye Shall Be As Gods

    Extremely good point Soul. Many people do not realize that the eating of that fruit amounted to much more than just eating someone else's fruit without permission. It was made clear to them that doing so would mean that they were their own god. They answered to no one but themselves, choosing...

    Interesting Bible facts

    Yes sir, but we can learn a lesson from him as well, while at this moment we may be the most dedicated servant of God, tomorrow we might choose to leave Him. Serving God is a 24/7 responsibility and although His commandments are not burdensome 1 Jn 5:3 it is quite easy to fall into complacency.

    My Shepherd = Psalm 23;1, John 10;14-18, I Peter 5;4

    I agree, Jehovah is the great provider. I can personally testify that all the time that I have accepted Jehovah as my God, I have never been in want. Jesus assured us that whoever sought out the Kingdom first, they would have their needs Mat 6:33, and like the Psalmist said at 37:25 he had not...

    The Choice Is Ours = Deuteronomy 30;19, Joshua 24;15

    Although you altered the verse maam, Josh 24:15 is one of my favorite verses and it puts it right on the line as well. If a person thinks Jehovah is evil, or unrighteous not fit to be worshipped. then let them select whatever god they choose to worship, but as for me an my household, we shall...

    What is Sin?

    Sin literally means miss the mark Robert. In reality it is a violation of God's laws. All of us sin every day, but rarely does a Christian commit a serious sin. It does happen however, and I think to those of us who do it, that we know we are committing one before we choose to participate. I...

    King James Version Only...?

    Although the KJV is not the version I would recommend first LC, I do believe that Jehovah accepted it, especially for a few centuries. Why do I say that? I see His protection of His name. Jehovah progressively increased the plagues on Egypt rather that just freeing His people right off, in order...

    Soulwinning vs Proselytizing

    I would agree that virtually everyone who bears testimony to you would desire you to become a spiritual brother in their faith. In fact it is scriptural reasoning. Jehovah chose to include in His word Isa 2:2,3 which you may agree is for our time period, the final part of the days. What that...

    My understanding of the parable of the talents is this Post: Mat 25:14on, the master is Jesus, who returns to heaven. His belongings, is his responsibilities now given to his anointed disciples. Their respective responsibility placed upon them was according to their ability v15. The assignment...

    Disposition Of Christ

    How I long to have the disposition of Christ Mike. I am so far from it, and pray regularly for it. It is a slow process, but I have made considerable headway, but oh so far to go.

    Soulwinning vs Proselytizing

    Jesus' disciples are basically seed planters Rob. Our assignment is to go and make disciples by teaching them all the things Jesus commanded. Mat 8:19,20. It is the word that they accept or reject. That is why the remainder of what Paul said was that God makes it grow. That is not to say that He...

    There is a Limit to God’s Pleading = Isaiah 3;13-14, Jeremiah 2;9, Ezekiel 20;36

    Jehovah does plead with people maam. Particularly since the inception of the new covenant, He has been sending His people to accept His ark of salvation. But as you stated, there is a limit to His patience. We are on the verge of His action.

    Jews In The Holocaust

    As one of Jehovah's witnesses John, we are not disappointed that the holocaust is remembered. We certainly do not celebrate it or acknowledge it in any way, but anytime lessons can be learned from past mistakes, these reminders may move others not to make the same mistakes sir. Especially...

    I see Post, when you disagreed with my interpretation of the parable, I gathered that you had a different understanding of it. I do understand your comment about not understanding it, on reason Jesus instructed us in illustrations was that we as his disciples would get the meaning. In fact, many...
