Fay,Wow! That was amazing.I had know idea that the JWs had done that to you.Thank Jesus, that you were delivered, and out & away from that.The account of your first baby is a "heart toucher" for sure.What a contrast that was, compared to your description of your time with the JWs.It is interesting, that the JWs and the Roman whore church have one thing in common:It's like, as if, Esau was trying to "take back" the birthright that he sold to Jacob, for a mess of pottage.They both, the JWs & the RCC, are attempting to apply it to themselves.The JWs, by trying to falsely claim that their early devotees are the 144,000, taking that away from the twelve tribes of Israel.Mama Rome falsely claims that they have replaced Israel, and are now the recipients of all the promises made to Israel.The RCC wants all the good prophesies to Israel to now be theirs, but not the unpleasant ones.i.e. they don't want the one related to making the covenant with death, or the one about two parts in the land to be cutoff, or that about the great tribulation.Those they sweep up, like, dust, into the same preterist corner, to take the heat off from them, while taking the good things for themselves, at this time.
