..".If anyone adds to These things, God will add to him the plegues of this book, and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, form the Holy City, and from the things that are written in this book."

The New World Translation bible says in the beginning, something to this effect.....We have changed some of the scriptures to give a fuller context of the text....( I do not own a copy of this bible anymore so bear with me I am going form memory)

Should Jehovah's Witnesses be concerned that changing the Bible, will ultimately bring the wrath of God against them?

When I was 5, I was sitting with my friend on the couch. Something made us look left & we saw a red mist in the shape of the devil, horns, pitchfork n all. We were hysterical & ran to my gramma crying n screaming. She looked all over inside n out but, of course, nothing was there. I remember this like it was yesterday. I know today it was an "Entity", probably not a dead human and it was evil. This is why I believe in the paranormal.

When i was living in CA there was an ad in the paper for phone psychics so I called them up and became one. You have to dial in to some phone line, hang up and wait for the phone to start ringing. Then you just make up a bunch of BS. I only did it for 3 days because most of the people that called in seemed crazy and I felt bad. Just thought I'd let you know if you were going to call one.

Has the phrase "I'm a movement by myself, but I'm a force when were together." been ever used in the bible? If it has could tell what passage it is, please? I heard it in a song and was wondering. Thanks.

because if god is our father, we , atheists have shown him that we are able of pursuing happiness and joy on our own, we, as good children are able of live an independent life.
If god is a father he/she will be pleased to see how their children are able to live on their own, without asking him/her favours or graces or anything else...god would think his creation was worth the effort when he saw that his/her children are able of living independently...well that is what any normal father is happy with. A normal father doesnt place his "interests" before his children.

US Military Protestant chapel service? It is good. I am in the US Air Force and I attend a Baptist Church outside the base. When I was sent to Afghanistan and Iraq recently I attended a Traditional Protestant Chapel service. The Gospel was preached, people were baptised and communion was held...Lords Supper. Sometimes here at home in Arkansas I think back to those days. I really missed those times. A co-worker buddy of mine in the Air Force went to those Protestant Chapel services also and he is Methodist at home. The Chaplain was an Air Force Captain and he was 4-Square Pentecostal at his home of residence. He made a statement one service that he realized that those in attendance were of different denominations so he would refrain from the heavy Pentecostal beliefs. For Christians the military chapels have 3 services, Catholic, Protestant and LDS. They also have Jewish and some non-christian faiths. What are your thoughts on this?

I'm not sure exactly how specific an answer I can get. I mean, I would consider Mormons a separate religion from most Protestant religions, but I would probably put, say, Lutherans and Methodists in the same category. I would assume most religions have numerous denominations, as well.

I'm not trying to start a big religious debate, I'd just like an estimate, preferably with a website for reference.

I think mine is because I am becoming more and more like Christ all the way through but He has already transformed my Spirit (I am a new creation through Christ Jesus) - so if I totally surrender I will be more like who God intended me to be...

1. If you totally surrender what will you have surrendered too?
2. Your thoughts what do you reckon about my hypothesis?

This is the second time I've seen someone pull out their dental floss in a restaurant and proceed to use it while other patrons were eating nearby. When I politely suggested that this most recent person should perform this personal hygiene task in the restroom she looked at me and told me I was being rude and should mind my own business. What the heck!!

many ppl look at Jehovah's witnesses as wierd or they think we try to force people into our religion..or were not christians because we go to to door. DID YOU KNOW that jesus sent his disciples door to door by twos?luke 10:1 "After these things the Lord designated seventy others and sent them forth by twos in advance of him into every city and place to which he himself was going to come." Luke10:5,6 "Wherever YOU enter into a house say first, ‘May this house have peace.’ And if a friend of peace is there, YOUR peace will rest upon him. But if there is not, it will turn back to YOU. " after Jesus died the disciples continued doing as Jesus commanded. Acts5:42 "And every day in the temple and from house to house they continued without letup teaching and declaring the good news about the Christ, Jesus." if you would like more scriptures on this or have any comments feel free to email me.
