   It is better to be in the truth then to swallow a lie.  Friend james tries   
   to defend what can not be defended:   
      
   >But are not the above statements taken from the Bible?   
   >   
   >Yes, those ideas are in the Bible along with a lot of other ideas.   
   >Proper understanding of them requires considering ALL the scriptures   
   >dealing with this subject as well as context and original   
   words, etc.   
      
   Smile, the very deception the jw vatican uses daily, no?  It means what we   
   say it means, why; because we told you so.  Then on a regular basis they do   
   a flip flop and says int now means something else, even contradictory to   
   before; to pull themselves out of a hole they made.   
      
   >For example, Jesus himself said no human would ever see   
   >him again. Thus his return would be invisible.   
   >   
   >John 14:19 In a little while the world will no longer see me, but you   
   >will see me; because I live, you also will live.   
      
   Smile, the very thing as above; because we told you so.   
      
   Christ was abou to ascend and they would not see Him when entering the   
   clouds, simple; no?  He didn't become invisable, He just disappeared from   
   sight.   
      
   Why the "invisible" bit?  Because the jw vatican to cover up a string of   
   failed predictions of the 2nd coming said He returned in 1914, He was just   
   invisible.  Now ain't that special?
