Not sure what proof you need to see.The turmoil in christendom worldwide compared to how Jehovah has blessed his organization worldwide with membership.

Even The Watchtower building being bought was a blessing to use the money for ministry.The attendance over 20 million for Passover speaks for itself.

Math 24:14 being fulfilled FOREVER!!NO other sect comes close!!

Just like Pharoah got to know who God is....the nations will know Jehovah is GOD!!

Did you ever stop to consider the reason why Christendom is in turmoil is because people like Charles Taze Russell have introduced heresy upon heresy to the Christian Church? That reading the bible for all it's worth instead of injecting what YOU want it to say is what God always intended?

God doesn't need a 'sect' or 'organization' or a new group of Pharisees going around telling everyone how inferior they are. They need the pure undiluted word of God. That's something the Watchtower is unable to provide.

Glad to see you agree with christendom being in turmoil.Jehovahs organization ISNT!!

They have more then proven Jesus words,"You will know you are my followers if u have love among yourselves."

Also,i am getting a little concerned dementia might be setting in you.You speak of banned all the time.Hitch was banned  9 months ago.There has been NO site of him.

We know of your delusions with the bible,<sigh>seems they carry over to your life too eh?

[Drutts0643]

I would expect most everyone has heard of the 12 days of Christmas or Twelvetide -- between Dec. 25 and the Epiphany (the arrival of the wise men from the East after 12 days' journey) on Jan. 6 -- the Christian celebration of the Nativity.  It has been interpreted to have hidden meanings, sung about, spoofed (all in good fun); nonetheless, respected as the events following the birth of Jesus have been reaffirmed throughout the ages.

As we are now in that period of time, does anyone have any thoughts, serious or otherwise (respectfully, of course), about those gifts named in the song, "The 12 Days of Christmas," starting with that partridge in the pear tree, two turtle doves, three French hens {for example -- representing faith, hope & love}, four calling birds, five gold rings, etc.?

You clearly ask if anyone had thoughts...CORRRECT!!

So we answered you with truth.And gladly will back it up using bible.....NOT mans BS!!!

And just think,something the world says is Jesus BD and deception is used towards the children in Santa,reindeers etc.....tsk tsk.

Good thing it really isnt.Im sure he wouldnt be happy having something in his name used for such.

Ponder your bible study.

But RE the Nephillim......you have found truth there.Again JJ doesnt support that,so think twice with him.

Drutts i see you have your hands full once again.JJ is right on time to inSTINKate i see.He always says its OK for him to refute Hitches posts,but then cries when we put up truth.Real sicko.

He seems more hung up on word banned now.Guess he gave up on "reported again"I would loved to know tally between him and the other snake how many they sent in to FC.LOL!!!

I heard hitch wanted to treat it like Tap.Penny a report.LOL!!!

I dont think u will get any customers here Drutts aside from JJ.Most run when u put logic and truth up except JJs delusions.Well keep up  the good work.I am sure hitch is very well pleased how we handled these foolish ones in the last 9 months.

If you support the bible as you claim, why do you constantly refer back to Watchtower tracts that are clearly in opposition to Scripture?

You are still unable to refute even ONE claim I've made- particularly the one where I showed the Trinity being displayed raising Christ in the very verses the Watchtower tried to use to discredit Christ's divinity!

I've already spent hours, days, months---probably years at this point-- pointing out the flaws of the Watchtower. Their teaching is NOT scriptural. Russell was no better than other false teachers that the bible warned us about. It's right there before you, but it's up to YOU to pay heed.

2 John 7-11
 I say this because many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.  Watch out that you do not lose what we have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully.  Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.  If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house or welcome them.  Anyone who welcomes them shares in their wicked work.

How Does Jesus Christ View Christmas?

If a celebration was to be held in your honor, would not your approval of its nature be of importance? Therefore, we do well to ask: Does the Bible indicate how Jesus views traditions steeped in paganism?

Jesus condemned religious leaders who compromised pure worship to gain converts. He said to such leaders: “You [travel] sea and land to make a single convert, and then you make him twice as ripe for destruction as you are yourselves.”​—Matthew 23:15, Phillips.

Conversion was not to be accomplished by blending pagan and Christian beliefs. Paul, an apostle of Jesus, wrote to Christians living in Corinth: “You cannot be drinking the cup of Jehovah and the cup of demons.” (1 Corinthians 10:21) And in his next letter to them, Paul added: “Don’t link up with unbelievers and try to work with them. . . . How can there be harmony between Christ and the devil?”​—2 Corinthians 6:14, 15, Phillips.

If a conscientious mother saw her child pick up candy from a sewage-filled gutter, she would insist that he get rid of it immediately. The thought of his eating it​—even touching it—​repels her. Christmas, though sweet to many, has been picked up from unsavory places. Jesus’ sentiments match those of the prophet Isaiah, who urged true worshipers of his day: “Turn away, turn away, get out of there, touch nothing unclean.”​—Isaiah 52:11.

Therefore, true Christians today do not celebrate Christmas. While their position may seem strange to others, they view traditions as did Jesus. When asked: “Why is it your disciples overstep the tradition of the men of former times?” he replied: “Why is it you also overstep the commandment of God because of your tradition?” And he added: “You have made the word of God invalid because of your tradition.”​—Matthew 15:2, 3, 6.

True Christians today manifest unity with Jesus by practicing “the form of worship that is clean and undefiled,” untarnished by the pagan traditions of men.​—James 1:27.

[Blurb on page 13]

“Why is it you also overstep the commandment of God because of your tradition?”​—Matthew 15:3

I think the MORE important question that others wanna know is,have you FINALLY stopped sending in reports to FC RE us?

I think even your counter-snake must have stopped by now.You?Im not so sure!!Your ignorance always has hope which makes you THAT much more ignorant!!

It really is EZ to see the so called "wise men"were NOT too wise.

Even Herods men were able to discern from the OT Jesus was to be in Bethlehem.They followed a star that took them to Jerusalem and found out thru Herods men Jesus was in Bethlehem.Satans plot unfolding as the star then moved right over JM&J.If they were soooooooo wise,it didnt show it eh?

Yes the astrologers finally wised up.They heeded Gods angel what Herods plot was to NOT go back to tell him where Jesus was.Sadly who knows the actual murder account of all the 2 yr old boys from the frustrated King Herod after the astrologers didnt return to him.The world depicts the nativity scene as a happy occasion when it really is a murderous one showing you all the more how blinded many are from Satan.Math 2nd chapter references it all.

A lot of this isnt hard to figure out.It just shows even when truth is presented logically how blinded many are thru Satans schemes.

How blind is the world?Think about it.You show the truth what is in Gods word and they support what isnt in it.LOL!!Such as the trinity,the drummer boy,grandma getting run over by a reindeer...need i go on?

Noah preached to an ungodly wicked world what God was gonna do.Only 8 survived the flood.Is it any different today?Jesus likened today just as the days of Noah.
