Why is it hard to think of God as a person? He himself reasons with us this way:
"The One who made the ear, can he not hear?
The One who formed the eye, can he not see?
The One correcting the nations, can he not reprove?
He is the One who imparts knowledge to people!"
-Psalm 94:9-10.
He only created one man, Adam. And from Adam he made the woman. He put Adam to sleep and took a rib of his to make the woman. So the woman was made with the same DNA that the man was made from. Actually the woman is made with the DNA man was created with. All other humans come from Adam and Eve...
We say he "died" past tense, and not "dies" present tense, because he died "once for all times." He does not need to continually die:
"So also the Christ was offered once for all time to bear the sins of many."-Hebrews 9:8.
"For the death that he died, he died with reference to sin once for...
By the by, I found the passage in the prophets where Jehovah likens himself to the mother of Israel:
"As a mother comforts her son,
So I will keep comforting you;
And over Jerusalem you will be comforted."
-Isaiah 66:13.
I agree with all this except for the fact that it is a bad habit to call God "Father." He calls himself our Father. We are told by his son Jesus Christ:
“You must pray, then, this way: Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified."-Matthew 6:9.
While following our Creator's good...
Nope. God created certain aspects of his nature in both the male and female, so that together they complement each other. Neither is better than the other. The male was created with a penis. So it is obvious that God had already thought of making a woman with a corresponding vagina in order for...
The holy scriptures refer to God as a "manly person of war," as "our Father in heaven" and other masculine titles. But Jehovah in prophecy also refers to himself as a "mother" that carried the nation of Israel.
God himself is neither male nor female. These are genders he created in his physical...
All present wars stem from the universal war that is waging between the Creator, Jehovah God, and the rebellious angel Satan the Devil. That war has been waging for thousands of years and has humankind as the focal point and smack dab in the middle. It has to do with God's universal Sovereignty...
It has to do with the fulfillment of prophecy:
“Then people will hand you over to tribulation and will kill you, and you will be hated by all the nations on account of my name."-Matthew 24:9.
The Russian Federation doesn't like the Jehovah's Witnesses because they preach that God's kingdom is...
Several years ago, I think it was 2018, Putin outlawed the JW.ORG website as extremist. You could be imprisoned for watching videos such as the following:

Extremist propaganda the Russian Federation says.
I remember watching Star Trek The Next Generation growing up. Gene Roddenbery's Star Trek universe was a utopia. They sure butchered his vision of the future it sounds like. Went from a utopian future to a dystopian one.
Interesting information. With regards to Genesis 4:25 "There was also born to Seth a son, and he named him Eʹnosh.n At that time people began calling on the name of Jehovah," the Biblical Encyclopedia Insight on the Scriptures says:
"This was evidently not a calling on Jehovah in faith and pure...
The star that the wise men (or astrologers or magi) saw was obviously of supernatural origin. It lead them first to Jerusalem where they met up with Herod. And afterward, it lead them directly over the house where the young child Jesus was living with his parents, in Bethlehem. No star or...
Everyone, no matter who they are, will have to stand before the judgement seat of God, but God judges no one. Jesus will do the judging:
"For the Father judges no one at all, but he has entrusted all the judging to the Son."John 5:22.
Those called to heaven will be judged either before the end...
Part of God's condemnation of the wicked is his word. That is also part of the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth of the wicked ones who are fake Christians.
"And locusts came out of the smoke onto the earth, and authority was given to them, the same authority that the scorpions of the...
I understand what you are saying. And believe you are sincere. That is also why I keep discoursing with you, because you are a reasoning person. God wantssuch like ones to take his message to the people, just like he sent Jonah.
Imagine if those people in Nineveh thought Jonah was a bigot for...
Without a doubt! I agree that it is a despicable teaching. It is so extreme a view it makes God less than human. And his sense of justice worse than that of many humans. Can that really be the case? You would have to be a bigot to have such an extreme unreasonable belief. I am not saying that to...
Bigotry is bad in all its forms. A person who is a bigot is someone who has strong, extreme and unreasonable beliefs.
I think a prime example of bigotry would be the belief in a Hellfire, would you not agree? These bigots imagine that a person, under no fault of their own, born into sin, if...
