Dolphinheart it seems you believe we are against you, don't you see the signs, you are the only one out of all the JW's that had chosen to stay around-trying to prove " A Nil"..But you are still sticking it out, you have no evidence in any of the literature's you have written on this page, but if it wasn't for solite3 Johnw74 and myself, and of course our Lord and savour.
Without us who would you call, the {ghost busters} We are your only friends, and you know it..
This is why I am asking my JW friend can he help us with this paragraph, and look it up yourself, the book is in front of you 'isn't it?
Maybe you are also one like me, who also throws this sort of literature out into the rubbish, knowing these magazine's are taken people to hell.

This is why you can not explain the comforters story to us? Dolphinheart what is it you can't relate too, I am asking for your support here, why the JW's had left out Verse five, when that scripture is so important for all viewers to know.
Jesus is alive, today, tomorrow, everyday, Comforting us all.....

you are evading the part of the article that has been quoted, you want to discuss other parts of the article to try and confuse and get away from the part quoted and commented on.

you did this when you blasphemed God calling God and the Word "a two headed god"
for pages and pages you kept saying post the full text because you cowardly wanted to get away from the matter of blasphemy that was talked about, and confuse the matter with other things.

Bring up your other things by all means and someone, perhaps I, might want to talk with you about them,
but for now stop being a coward and running away, and answer brocab's quote and claim.
Of course you won't because the truth and courage is not in you.

And of course when you aren't part of Kingdom hall, no-one retrieves the mags, before they give them out at your homes or on the streets.

I believe it's true, dolphinheart doesn't seem to know the times, and how hard is it for a JW to know which paragraph I am preferring too, when I have mentioned time and time again the subject is about the comforters story. No 5 Watchtower Magazine.
So is it true? DOLPHINHEART is either an X JW Something doesn't add up, he never seems to have the slightest idea every time we all bring forward a subject from His own Watchtower magazines. I have even notice his own comrades had moved away from his write ups.
Does this mean they don't agree with him either.
Is it because his love for Jehovah is against the Watchtowers teachings, I can recall when no-one listens to the JW's they usually black list you, meaning you are no-longer accepted by them about their false religion.
But it seems dolphinheart don't do what the JW's have been taught to do. He continual's to ram rage against us......

I have asked you kindly and nicely dolphinheart about explaining why your magazine had left out Jesus in the comforters story. And still you have refused to explain the facts.
But to be truthful I already knew you didn't have the answers to my question, only because you and your comrades don't really believe in Christ anyway, this is why none of your magazines really have anything to do with Jesus.
His name is only mentioned to draw in lost souls, people with issues, people who haven't the slightest idea about anything, hurting people who never knew about the love of Christ.

Having all these other religions is only a start for them, everyone needs something, all needs someone to glorify their life's, coming to Christ isn't that easy, if the Father isn't calling you, you just become religious, but its a start.
After the Father calls you, and you agree to come to Christ, baptised in the name of the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit then your new life begins, and your old life had passed away, and the Holy Spirit starts teaching you through the bible..
All these other religions who believe they can get into heaven without the Father calling them, they are barking up the wrong tree. Everyone who's born again, are not baptised under the churches banner, but Christ Himself. Christ saves you, not the church. Lets say the Roman Catholic's,or the Catholic's the JW's the Mormons or even the Muslims, these are the ones who disagrees who Christ really is, only Christ can save you, your Church buildings and the people in them can't save you. No-one can go to the Father without Jesus..And Christ said one must be born again before he can enter into the kingdom of God, and if you think there is a back door into heaven, again you are barking up the wrong tree.
Born again Christians have church building like everybody else, but the differences is we have the Holy Spirit living in each of us, giving us discernment, that questions the word of God, when it is spoken in Church or outer Church..

When it is spoken with non believers, and so called believers..The bible is our tool given to us by God Himself. And through it God speaks through us to share it with others.
This is the many reasons why other religions argue against us, its because they are not filled with the Spirit of God, Jesus said if you believe in Me you will be prosecuted {Matthew 5: 11,10:22, 24:9. 2 Timothy 3:12}
So you see, those who refuse Christ fully, are the prosecutors, and when the time comes who will stand for Christ Don't forget fellow Christians many are called and few are chosen, don't be like them, stick to the narrow road and keep of the Highways. ..

It just shows doesn't it, where are the JW's now, dolphinhaert was the one that believed in something, while the others ran for their lifes??
Lets start with the truth about Christ. That there is only one true supreme God, The God of the bible.
And His Name is YHWH. YHWH is usually translated as LORD. Out of reverence for the Holiness of God, the Jews stopped saying God's Name, 100 years BC.
So the correct pronunciation of YHWH is uncertain the Hebrew language does not contain vowels. But we can ascertain the first syllable of God's Name is probably pronounced "Yah" because it is found in the word Hallelujah {Halleluyah} Hallelujah means prise the LORD. Or more correctly praise YHWH.
"Some Christians pronounce YHWH as Yahweh. Yahweh means "I am, who I am" God explained His name to Moses during the burning bush encounter, when God commissioned Moses to free Israel {Exodus 3:13-15}
God's Name is the "I am" that gives a sense of enigmatic, transcendent and eternal nature of God {Revelation 1:8}.
Three infinite and eternal persons belong to the Godhead called The Father the Son and the Holy spirit. Yahweh is One God made up in 3 persons.
The facts are that Jesus Christ is Yahweh can be determined by comparing the following Old Testament verse with the New Testament verses. {Joel 2:32} That who ever call upon the LORD Yahweh will be saved. This verse is quoted by Peter in {Acts 2:21 and Paul in Romans 10:13} Both apostles were referring Jesus as the LORD.
{Isaiah 40:3} speaks about preparing the way for the LORD Yahweh {Mark 1:3} we also see that Jesus is the LORD.
{Isaiah 6:1-10} We read about the marvellous vision Isaiah had revealing the Glory of the LORD Yahweh.
{John 12:40-41} Tells us of his vision revealed the Glory of Jesus.
{Isaiah 44:6} LORD Yahweh refers to Himself as the "first and the Last" {Revelation 1:1-8 and 17} Jesus refers to Himself He is the Alpha and Omega and the first and the last.
{Zecheriah 12:10} The LORD said they will look on Me who have pierced, This is obviously Jesus speaking though {Psalms 22:16, John 19:34} This passage from Zachariah appears in {Revelation 1:7} and its clearly about Jesus.
The truth is there if one chooses to find it..So come on JW's lets look seriously into the bible. The Father the Son and the Holy Spirit is Jesus...
