The Lord YOUR God Does Not Like Flattery....

I Am Not Akin To Scripture... It has only the power to instill.
I much prefer the power to love....

That Aside.... thanks for your visit.

That is what the law is all about. Love. In fact, when asked what were the greatest commandments in the Law, again Jesus quoted scripture:

(Matthew 22:35-40) . . .And one of them, versed in the Law, tested him by asking: 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” 37 He said to him: “‘You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind.’ 38 This is the greatest and first commandment. 39 The second, like it, is this: ‘You must love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 On these two commandments the whole Law hangs, and the Prophets.”

In fact Jesus stated that he came into the world because God loved the world so much he gave his only-begotten son for us. (John 3:16).

In fact the entire message of Holy Scripture, above all else is LOVE.

So to deny scripture, is either to be ignorant, and that is possible. Even Saul persecuted Christians, but not according to accurate knowledge. Or to deny love.

Your statement does show a lack of understanding of truth and love and Holy Scripture though.

Actually, Saul omitted the greatest commandment as a requirement to fulfill the Law and said the second greatest commandment fulfilled the whole Law, directly contradicting Jesus.

He hated the Apostles. Was a murderer and a Roman agent.

I think it is you who understandeth not the scriptures.

And Apocryphal does not mean "couldn't be included", it means literally " hidden away"

It is also called Deuterocanon, or secondary canon.

Then you have pseudepigrapha. That means the stated author is probably not the author.

Like almost every book in the Old Testament and probably new.

a reply to: QuinnP

Oh now I get why you are so lost when it comes to scripture, you are a JW.

The New Testament never uses the word Jehovah. Matthew 4:4 in my Bible says God. In Greek that's Deus (I think) and in Hebrew or Aramaic it is El.

144,000 people are all who get to go to heaven right?

How many JW's walking the earth today? A million or so?

Bad odds for you. Your church has misconstrued so much of the Bible with bad translation and faulty interpretation that they are not taken seriously by anyone.

No, you are wrong about the meaning of your #s.

1 = God/Unity - communion
6 = man
1 + 6 (communion/ Unity of God + man)
= 7 = perfect - perfection

2 = Devil > smallest # that can be divided *the 2nd day is the only in Genesis creation not said to be good.
5 = Grace
2 + 5 = 7 perfect , sinners (followers of devil) may become perfect through Grace

3 = Trinity
4 = # of the earth, waters
3 + 4 = culmination of the Trinity on earth make 7 perfection.

7 +1 = communion with God = 8 (new things) new earth and new heavens

a reply to: CapstonePendulumHYDRA!!! speak much to yourself do you.

My Wife... Half Italian And Half Puerto Rico... Is A Total Babe.
The Only Time We Quote Scripture Is Right Before Sex Starts...
She Says: "¡Para Deux!" (For God)...
And Then I Say: "¡In Quo Confido!" (In Whom I Turst)...
Then We Do All Sorts Of Wonderful Things To Each other. The Best Part Is... At The End She Says: "¡Ex Turpi Causa Non Oritur Actio!" So I Say: "¡Mia Culpa!" That's How I Know I'm Forgiven...

We've been having sex for years in the name of God. He should be so lucky!

ETA: I Am Puerto Rican... 100%

Yes Laddy... You Are Well On Your Way To Some Heavy Deep Thought.

To Get More Of The Hang Of Things, Consider:
1) Water/Baptism = Stand Up For The People /Person! (((Water Of Life)))...
2) Sulfur/ Communion = Endure For The People/Person! (((Trial By Fire)))...
3) Salt/Confirmation = Made By The People/Person! (((Your Name)))...

1 + 2 + 3 = 6 = The Frist Of Three Sixes To Be Stolen Away From The Diabolical.

Numbers in the scripture are not symbolic of “things” they are symbols of measurement just like anything else.To ascribe fallacious pedestrian numerology to them is abundant evidence of those who believe it foolishness.It is a ignorant level of pareidolia mixed with mysticism..seeing into things that are not there.The clear and reasonable fact is numbers in the scripture are numbers nothing more.To believe they are more is a perverted form of sorcery and claiming the creator God as the source.

a reply to: CapstonePendulum

Nah. I've read through the entire Holy Scriptures to know, that when you stated this it was a lie. It is more so because you cannot even back it up with Scripture.

Should I say troll?

a reply to: CapstonePendulum

You really don't know what you are talking about do you? Explain it really clearly.

What do YOU think, and what do THEY think? Where are the millions going?

You are smart are you?

They think do they not. So where?

Stop and think about that.

I have a feeling you never ever have before ever. But do it now.

a reply to: Rex282

Nah. It was quite evident that God stated that the number of the beast is 600 60 6, or 666.

That is a symbolic number for he himself said that the prophecy was given in symbols. (Revelation 1:1, 2)

a reply to: Rex282

There is a great magic in psalms and numerology.
But it does not grant power. Instead it only brings one closer to home.
A place wherein the things that truly matter live.

Oh... And Another Thing About 666.

You Can't Begin To Comprehend How Effective It Is To Take It Apart Piece By Piece.
There Are Three Ways In Which You Can Do This...

BUT... I'll NEVER Tell!

The Father (Master) And The Son (Apprentice) And The Holy Spirit (Craft)... Do Well Enough To Infuriate The Devil With This Knowledge...

Do Not Cling To Life.. And Maybe You'll Find It.

We meet again. Greetings.

You do have knowledge, I wish it were more refined. As far as sacred secrets are concerned. They are hidden until God wishes for them to be revealed. But when they are. He does not ask you to hide them. He demands that you declare them to the world.

JWs come to my apartment and knock on the door. Driving my dog crazy.
Always on weekends... And always early in the morning.
It's annoying. But what eats me up is... I tell them politely that I am a Catholic.
They just won't stop. They don't take no for an answer.
I have not any clue how they even get inside the building.
They talk about Jesus and then resort to offering their propaganda pamphlets and whatnot and I have to be polite and repeat to them no... over and over again.

a reply to: Pinocchio

You aren't telling them no. You are telling Jehovah no. It wasn't they who got in . It was the angels who lead them to you.

Top Of The Morning To You QuinnP...

Greetings...

The Lord... or whatever you call him... does not CHARM mortals with speech. Only men do that.
Declare that to the world and the repent of you shenanigans.

Thanks for your visit

Think about that. Out of all the people. Angels are leading them to you. Over and over again? You are special in God's eyes. He loves you.

a reply to: QuinnP

That is not a strange story to be honest.
But... They know my loyalties lie with the Catholic church.
Why then does that become a matter of Jehovah...???

No there is no "charm". But the LORD, Jehovah is a God of speech. He loves to speak. And to be listened to and to listen.

You know, one time reading through the Holy Scriptures I realized how much detail God puts into everything, and how personal he takes everything. And how vocal and verbal he is about everything.

And then I realized that if we really heard everything he had to say, all the books in all the world would not even begin to describe it. So he humbles himself to author just a few books about things, and in the same time, that is all that is needed to be known.
