I just noticed on your profile that you write the Bitter Winter blog. I love reading it. There are a few posts or links to it on another site called "Quora" (it's a basic question and answer site) that I'm active on. Please keep writing. 

The 22 doctrines of Jehovah's Witnesses
 
I broke down what defines our religion in 22 doctrines:
 
• Jehovah is Almighty God.
• The Holy Spirit is His power.
• Jesus Christ is His holy Son.
• The purpose of life is to enter a loving relationship with God by worshipping none other than Him.
• The Bible is His inerrant revelation.
• God’s purpose is to sanctify his name by fulfilling His promises of everlasting peace in the world.
• Salvation is based on exercising faith in God through the Messiah’s ransom sacrifice.
• Christ has been resurrected from the dead and ascended to Heaven to sit at the right hand side of God and be crowned as King for all who submit to him.
• The earth will become a perfect Paradise for righteous mankind.
• 144,000 chosen ones will reign in Heaven alongside Christ.
• The resurrection of the flesh is a sure hope to come.
God will bring destruction upon evil.
• We must feel and show love to all people.
• We must value life.
• We must preach the Gospel of God’s Kingdom as best as we can.
• We must remain politically neutral.
• We must respect the authorities.
• We must act in unity with our spiritual brothers and sisters.
• We must abstain from blood.
• We must abstain from sexual immorality.
• We must abstain from idolatry.
• We must abstain from associating with the wicked.

Here in the U P of Michigan we are now under a blizzard warning for Sunday the 28th into Monday. Very high winds and not inches but FEET of snow predicted. Not sure if it’s Ross’ or my area (county) but winds as high as 65 mph are also in the forecast. 
 Will definitely be watching Storm chasers on YouTube.

According to Bible time-line, is it reasonable to conclude that Rebecca was 3 yrs old when she was married to Isaac? Pls help me out with other Bible references regarding appropriate marrying age.  Thank you!
