Have you ever stop whatever you were doing and just thought about everything that went on in this world? The fights...wars...murders, and the list goes on, that we see on the news today?

God's Word (the Bible) states in 1 John 5:19 - We know that we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one.

That scripture shows us that, YES, Jehovah is the creator over everything, HOWEVER, Satan is controlling the evilness in this world, he's the ruler of this world, and that's what this particular scripture is informing us.

I see this is your first post in city-data.

Are you here to preach to us and save our souls?

This is a quote from your profile. "I'm here to witness about Jehovah's Kingdom, like Jesus told us to do."

Guess that answers my question.

No one controls this world. I should think this is painfully obvious. The Bible is not a reliable source of information.

Petunia has it right in that The Bible is not a reliable source of information. However, it can be a good source of inspiration. Sometimes.


It is my own personal belief that we, the occupants of the earth, control the world. We are bound together and together make a single unified Life that cannot be extinguished as long as there is life on earth.
Together, I believe, we make up God. He is the ocean, and we are the waves. We cannot exist without Him and he would not exist without us.
Who controls the world? We do, albeit without knowing it. And we will not fail.

Looks like we have another JW to play with.

Not sure this one wants to play. I think its a hit and run.

The good thing about the JWs is that we who don't believe will cease to exist. Just what I want.

reminds me of this cartoon.

I thought it was the Rothchilds, the bilderberg group, and the Freemasons?

It's depressing to realize that in 2019 people promulgate that Satan crap and even more depressing when you see that people still fall for it.

Why should I accept scripture as true and authoritative? I seems like fiction to me. Can you provide evidence to support your assertions?
