This a question only to the jehovah witness (Other christian denominations can fell free to answer also).Dont need any opinions from an athiest or agnostic,since your answers dont matter.You say that only 144,000 people will make it to heaven,Now I know that there more than a few million jehovah witnesses in the world.If that is the case,How can you know your apart of the 144,000? What of the jehovah witnesses in the past?Wouldnt that number be filled up a few years ago? I thought the 144,000 were from the 12 tribes of israel?

You are being attacked. Fear not my fellow warriors, for our God is on our side. The devil and his clan have come to ridicule you, to tear you down, to call you "stupid and unreasonable". They tell you that God does not exist, and that you have no hope. They are seeking to rob you of your faith in our God. Liars they are! Sons of the devil working for the will of their father, spreading his deception! Fear not you true worshippers. For our God is the Almighty and He will reign Supreme! There will come a day when you will rejoice because our God will be ruling as king. Stand firm you true Christians, put on your spiritual armor, do not let your hands grow weary, for soon we will be reaping our reward! Soon, Satan's kingdom is already begun to fall, he is scampering around with the little time he has left seeking to tear us away from our God. Be determined in your minds and hearts not to allow ridicule to tear you away from the love of our God.

why are some people so adamant against it. Please don;t answer with gay men will rape their children, since the majority of pedophiles are heterosexual males. Do you really believe that they will try their hardest to turn their child gay? Why is it so hard to believe that two men or two women can give a child a good life, filled with love. Really what is the threat?

It's always easier to demean the person who does the thing you wish you'd done in the first place. So, give it you best shot. If you feel you sinful, depraved, disgusting life is the way to go, then give us the reasons why. Otherwise, you're just another coward who would rather choose your own sins than to have the courage to confess and ask for forgiveness.

I know many Christians who pick and choose which laws of Leviticus to obey and/or stand by, such has that Laying down with another man is an Abomination to God, so Homosexuality is wrong. That is fine, so if you think that then you must follow ALL his laws or you're a HYPOCRITE!!!!!!!!!!!

And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire." (Leviticus 21:9)

"Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean." (Leviticus 12:2)

"But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days." (Leviticus 12:5)

Males are less penalty! Baby girls are called Maids!!

“Lo I walked down to my local deli and decreed “I am Jesus and I am here for some thinly sliced pastrami” and lo the clerk did say “But Jesus, we are all out of that particular luncheon meat, perhaps can I get you another?” I replied “Yes my child, some bologna would do just fine” and thou shalt always remember my order” – Letter from Francis to the Ecclesiasticans, Psalm 13:5

Don't you just love it when you eat one of your favorite foods and you just relish every single bite. How many of you love cheesecake? I mean really, really good cheesecake? Isn't it awesome to just savor that awesome cheese flavor with the slightly crunchy crust? Or, who besides me could eat green chile chicken enchiladas everyday of the week? What an awesome gift God gave us letting us have the sense of taste! Or what about color? What is your favorite color? Mine is red, but I also love blue and purple. Imagine if all we could see was black and white. Think of all the joy we get in watching a sunset, or looking at a pretty painting. When was the last time you stopped and smelled a flower blossom? How about when a whole orchard of citrus trees are blossoming? The whole area is filled with such an intoxicating, lovely smell! Our Creator must really love us, and really want us to enjoy this awesome gift of life to give us so many wonderful things! "Praise Jah you people"

Yes? No? It doesn't matter what you say-----He is the savior. And nothing anyone will ever say or do will change that fact.

Take this opportunity so you will leave alone those other questions that ask for "true" answers. *Dodge* *Weave* Come and get me! Do your worst, just leave those alone that would praise God!

Christians try to prove the existence of God and then try to say that
the proof implies the truth of Christianity. But, is the concept of God
a monopoly of Christians???

"And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed the men, and the women, and the little ones, of every city, we left none to remain." (Deuteronomy 2:34)

"And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of Hesbon, utterly destroying the men, women, and children, of every city. But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities we took for a prey to ourselves." (Deuteronomy 3:6-7)
Such words helped give justification to mediaeval Crusaders who slaughtered men, women and children along their way to Jerusalem and stole the spoils of the cities. Even today, many Christian military men use Scripture to justify their actions. If any soldier harbors doubt about killing his fellow humans, he need only consult a military chaplain or read the Bible to calm their worries. Even George Bush (the First), with Billy Graham beside him, proclaimed the Gulf War as "moral." George Bush (the Second) continued in his father's steps by killing thousands of Iraqi civilians

I have visited the Harimandir Sahib temple in India, Wat Mahathat temple in Thailand and Churches around the world. I love the architecture and spiritual significance of these buildings. I have never been to the middle east but would like to go sometime.
If not Mecca in Saudi Arabia which other buildings should I visit.

Find a busy interstate, and run across it, knowing that God has a plan for you and wouldn't possibly take you unless it really was your time, of which you should be happy anyways.




P.S. If you really do this, the world is better off without you, because you're an idiot. This is to prove a point only.

"And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch." (Genesis 4:17)


What wife? At that time only Adam & Eve, Cain and Abel existed on the Earth. The only possibility comes from, either a grave omission from the Bible, or his mother Eve served as his wife. The second possibility would mean incest.

After Cain killed his brother, God protected him by setting "a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him." (verse 14). Considering the earth supposedly had only Adam's family, who should kill him? And what kind of mark could have protected Cain? From the absurdity of this story, it should not surprise why anyone would read into it what they wanted. Certain inane beliefs resulted such as the common belief that the "mark of Cain" meant the dark skin of the "*****" race.
