It’s a 40-day journey of applying Biblical principles to marriage. As he takes the journey, he gets more and more educated about what God intended for marriage, and he learns more about what love could be. He gets to win back the heart of his wife, but not without some twists and turns along the way.

We’re excited about shooting this, and hopefully it will encourage marriages out there. We think God has the best romances."

"The NWT of John 1:18 reads: "No man has seen God at any time; the only begotten god which is in the bosom [position] with the father is the one that has explained him."

Let me point out that the 'only begotten god' is with a small 'g', which helps out the Rusellite position that Jesus is just a 'little god'.

Now lets look at the NASB: "No man has seen God at any time; the only begotten God, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained [Him.]"

Look at that! The NASB has a begotten God too. Granted, this 'god' gets a capital 'G', but unless I forgot how to count, I see TWO GODS here!!"

The NIV changes this ever so slightly, so as to give the illusion it is not in agreement with these, but the link shows the TNIV, and NIV are also JW type add ons."

"Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you." (Deut 4:2)

...four warnings against tampering with these revealed words.

This warning was supplemented later with the following: "What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it" (Deuteronomy 12:32).

"...warning was even more severe, at the very end of the whole body of Scripture. "If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life" (Revelation 22:18-19).

Since John was the last apostle, it is clear that this warning is against any later attempt to add some new "revelation" to the now-complete Word of God.
"Every word of God is pure: . . . Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar" (Prov 30:5-6).
"Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled"(Matt 5:18)

So don't mess with the Word of God!

"No economy is perfect, but the American economy remains a marvel. The present crisis is an opportunity to rethink some basic questions and restore trust. There are no easy ways out of a crisis like this, and no painless solutions. Yet, would you trade this system for any other?

This current crisis should also remind Christians that we are not called to be mere economic actors, but stewards. Everything we are, everything we do, and everything we own truly belongs to God and is to be at the disposal of Kingdom purposes. This world is not our home and our treasure is not found here. We are to do all, invest all, own all, purchase all to the glory of God.

Finally, this current economic crisis just might help Christians to focus on another issue -- retirement. Where in the Bible are we told to aspire to years and decades of leisure without labor? There is nothing wrong with saving for what the world calls retirement. Indeed, that is just good stewardship. Furthermore, there is nothing wrong with workers enjoying the fruit of their labor. But Christians should think of retirement as an opportunity to be redeployed for Kingdom service."

He is teaching ANYONE that it is OK to lie when this lost sodomite blasphemes the Lord Jesus Christ by claiming to be SAVED while refusing to repent of a perverted deathstyle.
"But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."

we believe that the Bible has been infallibly preserved because God has said so, though we are at a loss to explain all of the difficulties with this position. Those who reject the doctrine of preservation mock us because we cannot answer all their questions. Let them mock. We have God's promise on these things. We have an infallible Bible in our hands.
