Highway, name each of the 8 kings if you think you know what you are talking about.

I guarantee you, I can name each one by name.


Who do you think the 8th king is?

God prepared 7 kings as bridegrooms to the earth, Jesus was the 7th.


Who is the 8th?

Judah was the 6th, who was the 5th?


Who was the first?



Jesus told the woman at the well that she had 5 husbands but the man she lived with was not her husband, and that was Judah.


Jesus came as the 7th, and now the eighth has come, what is his name?

How many families have been divided or ripped apart because of the shunning practices of your Organization for not following a particular stance? How many have told a family member, they are going to be destroyed in Hell? Apparently, love is not the first and foremost within the Watchtower Society, rather its a fear based religion that condemns those not like them.

Amazingly smart men huh Jerwade? Imagine Moses knowing the earth was held upon nothing. I can't even imagine living a life thinking that this is all there is. Make the most of it sir.

Many speak about the weather, but I am ignorant of any prophecies indicating a change in the weather.

Matthew 7:5

Jesus did not stop there, he has so much more to do, stay tuned, the best is yet to come. Time will prove my words true or false, but one thing we Christians do, is quite opposite of silently.

Who do you think the 8th king is?

Gladly, Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, Rome, Great Britain/United States, and finally the eighth.

You failed to address the second half of Jerwade's post. Did you think you could avoid that part by ignoring it?

Here it is:

You think WWI was the fulfillment of a Biblical prophecy? Bizarre!

We Christians? Do you mean you Jehovah's Witnesses again?
