Shawnster's Achievements

  1. Yes. The UN gains power and pretty much immediately we go into the great tribulation. There will not be an opportunity to return that power to the nations. Plus, once someone or something gains power, they typically don't want to give it back
  2. And there you go... Iran fires missiles toward US military bases in Qatar and Iraq https://www.cnn.com/webview/world/live-news/israel-iran-us-strikes-06-23-25-intl-hnk?adobe_mc=TS%3D1750699521|MCMID%3D08663742468277334497187081918837612039|MCORGID%3D7FF852E2556756057F000101%40AdobeOrg&iid=cnn-mobile-app
  3. Maybe Iran will be given some kind of financial or material offer that they will accept as sufficient compensation for their loss, pain, and suffering. Peace through "The Art of the Deal."
  4. Some view limitations to mean weaknesses or deficits. By this definition, no. Jehovah does not have any limitations. The limitations Jehovah has placed upon himself are the result of love, wisdom, justice, and power.
  5. Yes. Iran fall to Israel? Only if Israel plans to invade and send in ground forces. That does not seem to be how Israel is operating. They will bomb targets, and they have seized land since 1948, but currently they do not seem to be conquerors. Iran fall to revolutionaries or insurgents? That happened before in 1979. They were more secular before the revolution, but they were still a Muslim nation. This could happen if their government is really destabilized. Falls to someone else? As in government overthrow? By whom?
  6. Perfection does not mean rigid conformity, either. Jehovah intentionally created a certain amount of randomness and oddities. Consider the length of the days and the year, for example. Only twice a year are their equal amounts of daylight hours vs. Night hours. The rest of the time the number of daylight hours vs night hours is not equal or balance. Consider the length of the year. The Israelites in Bible times had a leap month. That is why Nisan 14 is always on a different day or month on our calendar. In our time we have a leap day every 4 years. There is absolutely no way to divide the number of days in a year evenly. Perfection includes oddity, randomness, and asymmetry.
  7. What would you like asked? What questions do you have?
