-Removed-I don't. That's o.k. We expect that kind of misunderstanding. That's why we offer free personal Bible studies so people can learn for themselves from the Bible.
We don't expect everyone to accept the truth.
Noah preached for 40 or 50 years before Jehovah brought the foretold flood and there were only 8 people that were saved on the ark.
Today too many will find any way they can to not accept the truth.
It is something each much prove for themselves.

I don't know BR but he is not telling you the whole truth if he said he was DF'd for taking blood. I assure you there is more to his situation than he is revealing if he every was a Jehovah's Witness. After being on this forum for aa while, I could easily think he's a red herring.
-Removed-I repeat, I do not know BR. I saw his threaad, read a few posts and did not need to go further.
It's obviously not something I can Judge because I do not know him, I do not know his situation, and I'm sure all the facts were not presented.
I can conclude that some people will buy into anything just for the sake of being contentious and causing difficulties. Take a break and deal with some real issues like how we can be guided to A better life through understanding Bible principles.
-Removed-That is possible. I'm an old guy. I forget. At any rate I know I did not post anything conclusive because I can't conclude anything without the facts.
I guess it is possible that BR was DF'd for not telling the truth.
(Acts 5:1-5) However, a man named An·a·niʹas, together with his wife Sap·phiʹra, sold some property. 2 But he secretly held back some of the price, with his wife’s knowledge, and he brought just a part of it and deposited it at the feet of the apostles. 3 But Peter said: “An·a·niʹas, why has Satan emboldened you to lie to the holy spirit and secretly hold back some of the price of the field? 4 As long as it remained with you, did it not remain yours? And after it was sold, was it not in your control? Why have you thought up such a deed as this in your heart? You have lied, not to men, but to God.” 5 On hearing these words, An·a·niʹas collapsed and died. And great fear came over all those who heard about it.

No, I don't believe he is.
But I do believe that people like Obama are laying the foundation by grabbing power and centralizing power.

Even physically he will be attractive, appealing.
He will be like what everyone wants to be - attractive, smart.
The tree of death was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
That is both the knowledge of good and evil were on the same tree which brought man into sin and death.
The first three and one half years of the reign of Antichrist will be years of his good.
This will be followed by the last three and a half years of his evil.
Thus he comes with the consummate of human good and evil.
And he will be attractive at first until he is killed and resuscitated to imitate the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Then his evil side comes out to the extreme.
But for millions it will be too late. Like the torrent of Niagra Falls after a certain point is just to powerful, so the current of appeal of the antichrist will be too powerful for millions. They cannot resist.
You are quite right to say he is highly thought of world wide with everyone's hopes.

I've tried to present a timeline for the "end times" but got way too many atheists laughing in my face, with them thinking I made it all up, calling me a "fundamentalist" over it, etc.

Essentially you centralize all power to one man, and then try to have a beauty contest to see who is best suited to hold the job.
It is then you hear how intelligent they are, how nice they are, how much better they are at running the lives of everyone around them than people are running their own lives. This sort of idol worship is not accidental.
That is why collectivists around the world are put under glass when they die. It's almost as if to say, they will live forever and be with you forever, just like they did with Lenin and Chavez etc. After all, if you could not live without them before, how on earth could you ever manage without them now?

Your posts are not unappreciated by all. I get something from many of them. So you just have to gear your fellowship with some of us who will derive some benefit.
