    Simple answer please

    All denominations who fail to give due honor to the Father would be in this category. All who fail to abide by the truth as contained in the bible fall into this category. All who fail to 'preach the word' fall into this category. All who deny that Jesus is the Son of God fall into this...

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    If we read the scriptures about the death of humans and accept them, then we cannot accept that the 'spirits in prison' refer to humans. Also, the verse in Peter doesnt say 'all are in tartarus'. In verse 4 its says the angels 'in the days of Noah' were sent to tartarus. They are 'put in...

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    Thats what i'm saying. Spirit is the breath/lifeforce within us. Soul is the living body. The spirit we project must be blameless according to 1Thess5:23. Our spirit refers to our thoughts, intentions, inclinationa, heart, character, motives etc. Have you never heard the expression "He is...

    Why don't Christian women wear their head covering?

    This is not saying a womans hair must be shaved off and its not something the christian congregation ever practiced. Paul is speaking of a custom of his time. In ancient times, if women were taken as captives during a war, their heads were shaven by their captors as a humiliation to the...

    Why don't Christian women wear their head covering?

    I dont know where the bible requires that a womans hair be shaved or cut off?? Can you direct me to the scriptural requirement for that? As regards head coverings, the christian scriptures only require this if a woman is praying or prophesying before a congregation. The reason for wearing a...

    Katie, look at 2 Peter 2:4 It tells us who the spirits are.

    Not people. People are not spirits. Only angels/demons are spirits.

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    You can't understand the law of the Christ without understanding the OT. Sorry, but the law of the Christ is based on the Hebrew scriptures. When the Jews called him 'Teacher' or 'Rabbi', what was Jesus a teacher of??? Was it not the Hebrew scriptures? Yes it was. So if you are not...

    Jesus was a Jew who spoke Hebrew and Aramaic. You need to go back to his original language...not the language of the greeks. However, the jews who translated the hebrew scriptures into greek, known as the Greek Septuagint, uses the word “Hades” 60 times to translate the Hebrew word Sheol...

    I think you and I have very different ideas on what 'hell' actually is. The bible hell is nothing more then the 'grave' The hebrew word for hell is 'sheol'... its the same word used to describe where Christ himself went when he died. Acts 2:25-27, KJ: “David speaketh concerning him [Jesus...

    Which religion's God is the most superior than all the other religion's God?

    I went to a Myan exhibition in the city a couple of years ago....the notable aspects of their worship seemed to be based on sex and death. Death was said to bring life...which is where the sex came into it. They offer sacrifice victims, participate in sexual orgies...and next year they are...

    Which religion's God is the most superior than all the other religion's God?

    I thought your argument was that 'variety' is some kind of projection of the many faces and facets of God. I asked you about religions which practice such things to see if you would reason that not all religions could actually be a facet of God and your reply seems to indicate that you dont...

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    Sure, thats why Jesus is called a mighty god. He is a divine being just as other spirits are divine in nature....but they are not all God Almighty.

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    We are not taking away the judgement of hell. We tell people very clearly that death will be the result if they dont submit to Christ. Death is the punishment....not torture. How can you arttribute such a horendous wicked act to a loving kind and merciful God??? The holy spirit is 'love...

    Your right... a wife is still human even though she is subject to her husbands authority. But the wife is not her husband which is what you are trying to claim Jesus is. They are still two separate beings no matter how much you would like to believe otherwise.

    Its seen as a matter for individual conscience. Some JWs do not accept fractions and others do. The GB do not decide for us... we decide what is acceptable to our conscience.

    That verse is speaking of Jehovah. It was only because of Jehovah that Jesus gave his life and only because of Jehovah that Jesus was given authority. So by Jehovah taking such steps, it can be said that he 'began to reign' by installing a new ruling authority for mankind.
