No problem!

Hello good evening Miss Irma,

I think my operating system is not XP, Vista, but Me which is millennium edition, I think that relates to your failure to send me your files.

You can send me your photos here. I'm looking forward to receiving your files.

Attached is a photo of me and Professor Don from Los Banos.

Yeah I was unwell this one month after I came back from other city. I was working in the city for one year and three month.
I'm now so so OK. What was my sickness? Vertigo or giddiness. I couldn't walk straight for a month. Lying all day long. Despite that I worked for no less than twenty hours a week. Albeit I will work 35 hours a week as of tomorrow.

Hi, how are you? I hope you are my online friend. I really like a woman who is one year senior to me. My wife is also so. Hope you are fine too!

Calm morning

Hello good morning my friends!
Very calm morning indeed. No wind absolutely. No sound with the exception of murmuring of birds probably a dove and cry of dogs far far away.
Then I hear the whispering of small birds high above the sky.Sun starts shinning and wind starts blowing.
New day starts also today too.

Hello good evening Br C**,

Thank you for many quotations from publications of the society.

You say Jesus will hand over power in Kingdom of God after 1000 years.
You say Jesus is a son of God. I think a son will succeed the Kingdom and don't return its tenure to his Father.

That is my simple impression after reading your explanation.

See you in tomorrow meeting.

I will send you another question before soon.

Fornication

Fornication
Thursday, May 28, 2009 1:54 AM

Hello good evening Br D**..

In this letter 'you' refers to 'institution' not specifically Br D** yourself..

I appreciate your explanation to injunction of blood in New Testament.
I think it's enough not to use animal blood in offering for the purpose of idol worship and of course not to drink blood just in order to keep abstinence of blood, but it's up to you. You ought to act as you think. No one can dissuade you from your decision. We all respect your decision.

In law there's an exception in applying it which is justifiable defence and emergent evacuation. Injunction of blood also ought to exclude the case which relates to a matter of life and death. Where's tolerance in your faith?

As to fornication. It is very natural for unmarried couples to have sexual relationship before their marriage. Many people have sex freely as long as they are under consent. Marriage usually regulates only their economic relationship, not their sexual relationship.

You often says fornication is bad, extramarital relationship is bad. But many people do so. I don't disagree as to the idea of sex ought to be done between married couples. But this decision is worthy if it is based on their free will.

I think fornication Bible warns not to do is not sex between unmarried couples, but rather excessive lust ordinary people usually don't have.

This is my impression I had in my Bible reading. How do you think about this? Bible is not a book of prohibition as you often emphasise. Let's take it easier, shall we!

Please respond to me when you can. I wait.

Sincerely yours,

Mer

Essence of God

Hello good evening Br H**..

Yes, this is based on my personal experience. About 33 years ago in Kora a very old guy who is Jehovah's Witnesses refused to take blood transfusion in operation. He's dead as a result of this action. At that time his case was reported in a newspaper.

He was over 80. He must have had a death from natural cause sooner or later, but anyway he refused to live longer by possible medical procedure.

I know two other cases as I told you before.. A married couple was attending some church regularly. After about a year of attendance they took their baby in a church. Their baby was apparently suffered from jaundice and probably the day was the last day on earth. He was swelled more than two times from ordinary state with full of yellow skin. They never visit the church again after this.

A guy was attending the church, after 9 months of his attending he was unable to come any more. Later I heard he was killed by cancer.

Probably in both two cases they must have been looking for rescue in soul. Here lies the essence of religion I suppose.

I think resurrection will take place. For God's eyes it comes soon. But for human eyes it will take millions of years. Science can do anything, that is I believe the essence of God.

By the way.. what do you do in the United States?

Sincerely yours.

Mer

Kingdom of God

Hello good morning Br **..

I finished reading your lengthy reply very late last night at around 3 am. Thank you very much for your enthusiasm to defence for your faith. This is not a sarcastic. Bible what is today was written many years ago and it's been 1900 years since the last chapter was completed. Bible has been interpreted in many ways as well, depending on how to interpret the verses. That's fine if you have some conviction based on faith in your direction of life. That not what others say it's wrong or right.

Yes there is an injunction of fat, pork and blood in Old Testament and blood only in New one. You interpret the prohibition of blood is still in effect over all Christians not only as offering, drinking but also for medical purposes. You can use fractions of red and white blood cells, platelets, plasma and other blood derived medicines such as immuno-globulin, etc. according to conscience of each Christians but you mustn't donate blood or receive blood transfusion.

This is a faith matter. Faith relates to how to live and sometimes heavier than life itself.
I understand and I should like to respect your faith.

In many Christendoms Sunday is called Lord's Day which means the day of Jesus or God.
Sun was an object of worship in many ancient Orient civilisations such as Egypt or Babylonia. Jewish Sabbath is taken from sundown on Friday to Saturday night till three stars are visible. So I confirmed it one day and 40 minutes. (So it was not 1.5 days as I thought before in my previous reading.)

Jewish people experienced Egypt and Seleucid occupation from 323 - 198, 198 - 166 BE respectively. It can easily be guessed that the custom of which day the day of rest is shifted from Saturday to Sunday influenced by the traditions of such occupant countries who believe the God of Sun. I think the resurrection of Jesus and baptism as a ritual also come from Sun worship since the sun is the one that repeat birth and death every day.

But officially yeah it was Constantine who implemented Sunday is the holy day adopting sun worship so common among other orient countries. Cross was also adopted from the sign of Sun god in Babylonia at the same time. And this was the reason you exclude Lord's Day and Cross in your Christian belief.

In several ways you excluded some customs major Christendoms implemented after the death of Jesus. Your belief is similar to original Christianity. In a sense it is a restoration movement to original Christianity in the first century. I myself feel Christianity today has been made through many traditions Catholics, Orthodox, and Protestant put into effects.

You seem to be different from Christianity since you don't use cross, don't celebrate Christmas, don't have church, but that's the very reason of what you are.

No questions? Yes, I have. In Kingdom of God, is the King Jesus, not God? Is there difference between Kingdom of God and that of Heaven? Then where is Heaven located ? Since we see two expressions in Gospels.


Sincerely yours,

Mer

It's OK.. Did you decide where to go?
Irma:
Oh there is a swine flu nowadays
be careful
My sister told me to study caregiving because Japan is hiring so many caregivers
they are giving working visas for caregivers
its just 6 mos study
Me:
Yeah that's right. Japan is now so-called super high life expectancy country. I find many elder house here and there. So did you decide to take a course in Angeles City?
Irma:
I'm planning but I will try first my luck in Entertainment I belong now to sequencer band

and besides we'll have tips also
much better
Me:
You can make ends meet soon anyway. I recommend you to get a job through government or local municipalities. There are many bad employers in private ones. Yeah, only rich people come to clubs and bars, and they give tips..good idea to save money in entertainment.
Irma:
i think so
anyway take a rest Eiko
get well soon

Thanks.. call me any time again! See you soon!

Two letters

Aritificial blood

Hello good afternoon Br **..

Yeah I was supposed to wait your sending a reply for my first email. So sorry too.

>this decision was made by a group of older men

That's right, but that does not necessarily mean in 21c all Christians ought to follow.
Refrain from blood was commanded because still in early century blood was sometimes on the table. ( I read this description from 'Apologeticus' written by Tertullian (ca.155–230) or even if it were not on the table animal blood was used in idol worship. From such various point of view I guess blood needed to be kept away from Christian's mouth.

When we think about the meaning of command we must consider its background, context,etc. For example because Mose's law was repealed by the death of Jesus today's Christians no more try to follow Mosaic law. I guess old congregation leaders as St James couldn't realise the real meaning of the death of Jesus and said so just to ease the tension between Gentile and Jewish congregations. For example Jews don't baptise while Jesus did so though, let alone they must have thought they are different from Gentiles in treatment of blood.

Blood prohibition was appears three times in Bible. One is in Genesis and this command was given to Noah, and second was in Leviticus given to Israelites. the third one was in Acts. So many agree Old Covenant was replaced by New Covenant. Some say command given to Noah was not nullified by New Covenant so command given to Noah is still in effect.

Is that so? I'm afraid not. Jesus is greater than Moses, let alone than Adam, Noah. Since Jesus existed before the first man, I think we ought to put maximum significance on the Advent of Jesus in if we were Christians and that's the meaning of I though the Redemption.


I'm glad you take fractions of red, white blood cell, platelets, plasma, but are you originally doing so? or sometime after you decided not to accept blood transfusion you decided to accept such products derived from blood? Not sure.

Suppose you were banned to take milk instead. Do you insist powdered milk, condensed milk, milk candy, soft cream are OK since they are not milk but a product derived from milk? So if someone take red, while blood cell, platelets, plasma at the same time is it OK?


But aside from all what I wrote here, whether you take blood or not belongs to conscience of each individual Christians. In Acts we read Refrain from blood, whether it includes merely evading to use animal blood for sacrifice or too far to include blood related medicines as immunoglobulin, or blood transfusion in operation. It's up to us not up to other's decision. I merely believe if some Christians accepted blood transfusion you cannot blame they are a violator. I think so.


So my question this time is do you use artificial blood in need if it were invented some day in future?

Yes, I am now in ** and attending the meeting regularly as of 11th of April. I wish you were here, but let's resume Bible study on line! I appreciate your advice.

At second world war you refused to go to war and put into camps in Germany. It was very meaningful because war in general is against humanity, conscience of Christians. But how about the refusal of blood transfusion! That benefits who?

I say to myself.. This feeling is from my personal experience. He's dead in hope of resurrection. Probably resurrection will take place in millions of years in future time. But till then who cares?

See you in next email.

With Christian sincerity
Mer

So sorry

Hello good evening Br **..

Oh, you were still composing your thoughts about my first mail. Sorry, I was impatient and made you hurry.

As you say if Mosaic law was repealed in Christ death, that's what I pointed out about the meaning of Redemption.. but it seems this idea is not original..

Blood prohibition was mentioned three times that is in Genesis to Noah, Leviticus to Israelites, and the third one is to Gentiles in Acts.

Command given to Noah is not Mosaic law, that's why this law is not nullified by the Death of Jesus? Moses recorded a command given to Noah since he is the one who wrote the first book Genesis. Is there any difference between command given to Noah and Mosaic law? I don't think there is.

As to the description in Acts about it I read Catholic had already solved this matter in 1442 Session 11 of the Council of Florence.


So my main question is isn't blood prohibition nullified through the death of Jesus?

If not, what was the meaning of Redemption?

Please take your time as long as two weeks. I will send another email after that.


Best wishes,
Mer

Thanks for your greetings. Keep in touch.. but I'm married, OK?

Blood & Fat

Hello good evening Br **..

As I stated in my previous reply it's up to you whether to consider transfusion is a violation.

Other denominations don't have such troubles, in Catholic Council of Florence 1442, Session 11, already issued a decree which says his word was uttered to ease tensions between congregations of Jews and Gentiles and ought to be taken its validity temporarily.

In Nicene Council 325 Arianism was thought pagan. Yet you take a standpoint of nontrinitarian view.

You use the term stake instead of cross.

This is correct, since stauros means in Greek a upright pole, not a cross. It was Constantine who connects Babylonian tradition and Christianity.

It's OK, but are you the one who don't celebrate Sunday as Lord's Day? Even if not so still you take holiday in this day. Isn't it a heretic tradition?

I think many cultures are interwoven together, so it's hard and meaningless to define which is Christian and which is not.

Leviticus 7: 22 -26 says fat is also prohibited. I have never heard fat is banned in the meeting though. Do you regard this prohibition is not valid any more because it's a Mosaic law - the same theory as swine?

I'm not sure whether blood was on the table in ancient times, but if it's so this prohibition counts a lot. And it counts a lot today since blood transfusions are common.. so it's up to you. But I think it's more practical to obey the order of abstaining from fat in our times since it causes various diseases.

I think I am much better now..

See you soon,

Mer

Meaning of Redemption

Hello good morning Br **..

I was thinking overnight as to why Jehovah's Witnesses can eat pork but cannot get one of medical procedures -blood transfusion.

I thought about the meaning of Jesus's last word -wine represents his blood, and the meaning of Redemption, prohibition under Mosaic law and their likely release under New Covenant.

Religious freedom is more important than life itself. If Jehovah's Witnesses say no to transfusions we all have to pay deepest respect to their decision no matter what the basis of their decision might be. It is their solemn, own freedom. Freedom of faith, which is a right guaranteed by Constitutions.

So I leave it to them. And here's my thought.

No meat has been banned under New Testament. Likewise in my opinion, blood is now OK for humans to make the most of from every aspects as much as we can.

Let' s think about the symbolic meaning of Redemption. This idea is very unique in Christianity. Blood of humans from Adam had been made unclean by original sin, yet Jesus redeemed its sin in his death on the torture stake. So humans are now eligible to get access to eternal life if they really repent.

Blood was originally used in pagan traditions in ancient times and of course in modern times contaminated blood causes many fatal diseases such as AIDS, hepatitis.

However once it is used and applied in completely sterile states, transfusion has been saving tens of precious lives and many other blood related products such as plasma, globulin have been a key to cure for many diseases. Then all of a sudden we understand why Jesus compared wine to his blood.

Then we also agree with the claim that blood stands for life made by Jehovah's Witnesses.

Doctor prescribed immunoglobulin when I was likely to suffer from tetanus three years ago, which is made of blood.

I know my idea is over-interpretation of the meaning of Redemption, but I believe scientific truth and religious belief go with in the long run.


My wishes,

Mer

Mercelius 14th May 09 00:45
Hi, how are you? I'm getting better.

Blood

Hello good afternoon Br **..

I think I send one query per week since it takes at least one hour for you to reply. You have lots of responsibility over English congregation now, so please spare me one or two hour for me per week.

I hadn't noticed I was asking particularly about the matters in Torah, because Old Testament has much more volumes than Greek Scriptures I might seem to have asked more about Torah, but I hadn't noticed about it till I was remarked from you. ..OK.. I try to ask more about New Testament from now.

But first sorry my next query relates to both New and Old Testaments. It is about blood transfusion.

Jehovah's Witnesses is well-known for their refusal to participation in World War II first and later they came to be known by refusal to one of modern medical treatments - blood transfusion.

As I confessed many times I have carefully read all Scriptures both New and Old already and I found two parts Jehovah's Witnesses has been relied on for their refusal to blood transfusion. I don' t mention them now because you must know them as well.

One is from Old Testament, which reads we can eat any meat but we need to get rid of blood and in New Testament it reads we get away from blood. No one scriptures say we mustn't inject others blood into our body.

Blood transfusion is a modern medical treatment started from 18th century- if I recall it correctly, so it's out of question we can't find such verses written before the first century.

As I pointed out in my last query that swine was banned from eating because it was contaminated from various germs, so the command was so proper for us to keep.

I don't think no modern humans from early civilisation had had blood for daily dietary. It must have related to very different heretic traditions though it was very sane for us not to have blood in our ordinary life. But how about transfusion? It is a medical procedure necessary for our urgent occasion. Sometimes this act is held out of pure philanthropic viewpoint, let alone it's nothing to do with heretic traditions.

Refusal to blood transfusion often bring about end of life immediately. I know one of my acquaintances who's dead after he refused it.

In this particular issue we can read in Revelation 16:6 that 'drink blood' and of course Jesus compared the red wine to his blood in Eucharist. How do you interpret them?

Of course it was very nice to see you here in **.
Just a ten days visit, but as I confessed you you have been always in my mind. I just wondered as if you were in my bureau last night when I met you for the first time in two years.

Anyway you are always in the left side of the screen. I don't miss you, because you are here.

Many years ago before I come of age at age around 15, I decided to be a writer.

My writings are a gift to future people, and not meant for current people though I appreciate my fans keeping on reading my blog.

See you again I hope in **.

No food law any more

Hello, good evening Br **..

This time I agree with you. Christians can eat whatever they want.

As to the verses in Acts, I read them again. Peter was so hungry that he came into trance. In his vision he saw God and God said he doesn't have to follow Mosaic law when he is too hungry to keep his life. He must have eaten them. It was not a bad decision as a human, of course, and as Christians too.

Mosaic law was written in 1300 BC. Many people today believe Pentateuch was arranged during Babylonian captivity, but it is easily assumed that the original code existed in Moses' time. 1300 years, it's long time. It is not strange even if the order had become obsolete at a time of missionary by Paul.

I've got many other questions, but it's time to take a rest as Moses commanded.
I will send another email sometime after we take a break.


Best wishes,

Mer

Origin of Holiday

Hello good evening Br **

Probably my remark might be thought too trivial. He was executed whatever the way it might be.

Moses was a wise man. He tried to establish social systems valid still in today's world.
Jewish people had been suffered from hard work and no rest. They had to keep on working till they died.

Moses had thought how they can get a rest without changing the frame of society. Hard work is, of course necessary for humans to survive. Taking a rest is, also very important to keep on working efficiently and everlastingly. So it was important to determine how often they can take a rest without losing two important factors, working hard and taking a rest.

Moses tried to stabilise the rate 5.5 workday and 1.5 taking a rest by introducing Sabbath. The custom of Sabbath was very new to them and some tried to work even when others are taking a rest.

Moses thought it is a sever violation or threat to the effective continuation of productive activity in society. Therefore it took one night to make up his mind whether to execute and how to execute him -the Sabbath breaker.

Moses used in his execution not hanging, stubbing only by one executor but stoning by all members of society, emphasising he committed a crime not against one person but against the benefit of all - I think this is the meaning of his being stoned to death.


I recall somewhere in Hebrew Scriptures that we mustn't eat pork. In today's world no Christians keep this rule. What I understand is the pork at that time is not the same one now we have. In ancient times swine eat various foods so they tend to be contaminated by poisonous matters, therefore prohibited.

Is my understanding correct? Or is there any new decree that we can eat pork?


Thank you for taking your time.

but the standard of living there in Japn is very expensive
thats why they used to work there in Japan and spend their money here in Phil its doubled or triple
the food here and everything is very cheap compare it to Japan
Me:
I know the situations around that. I was in the Philippines. Many cost about one tenth.
Irma:
yes its very cheap isn't it
?
thats why others are working there in Japan ,saved their money and spend it here in Phil
there are lots of Koreans ,chinese who are living and studying here in Phil
Me:
I bought beers always five or six instead of just two for not only her family but her neighbours.
Irma:
when you go to malls you will see lots of Koreans and chinese
Me:
Part of the fund she spent for reservoirs for water purification and walls were from my pocket money at that time. of course she was very glad. ..I recall my younger days. ...yeah now a lot of Asians became rich.
I think you are Chinese origin.
Irma:
me? i don't know but they always ask me if i have Chinese blood
they always think i am chines
Me:
If your name were like 'Chua' many don't confuse whether you are Chinese. But you are Tablante, Spanish name..
Irma:
but Japanese were the first who conquer Phil
then the Spaniards
yes thats why i look a liitle bit chinese and little spaniard
what i know is my great grand father have spanish blood
Me:
Oh, really? I don't know about that, but I know Japanese armies did countless bad things in World War II.
We all are mixture from many linages.
Irma:
yes
Me:
So where does your friend stay in Japan?
Irma:
Oh ,I forgot to ask
Me:
No problem.
Haven't you visited Japan, have you?
Irma:
not yet..but i would love to..but it is difficult i think
Me:
If you come to Japan, do you do with your daughter?
Irma:
no i think because she is studying here
maybe if i am settled there in Japan i can get her
Me:
So keep on staying in your mom's house? Oh, I see. It's needless to say it's better for her to be with her mom, ie you.
Is it really hard for you to get a visa for working or visiting Japan?
Irma:
yes it is hard because i ask my friend and she said its difficult nowadays
maybe if there is someone who will sponsor me
but my sister don't want because she is living with her in laws
if i will go to japan my sister will take care of my daughter while i'm in Japan
anyway my daughter is big already no need to take care of her she can manage
Me:
Someone who sponser..will you tell me a litttle bit about it more?
Irma:
someone who will give supporting papers like my sister when she got my sisters before and visit Japan
Me:
Supporting papers?
Irma:
yes
Me:
What's that more concretely?
Irma:
I will ask my sister when she will go online
because most of my sisters already visited Japan
but not me because i'm working at that time
they just stay there for 3 to 6 mos
Me:
Probably it's a written legal document endorsed by some guarantor. It's important because it prevents illegal immigrations. ...yeah 6 months.. many Philippinas work for 6 months and go back. They repeat it again.
Irma:
yes
Me:
I might be able to help you with it, please don't hesitate to ask me when it's needed.
Irma:
Oh really?

Me:
It's my pleasure

i'm reading the notes
Me:
Do you listen to Chopin?
Irma:
What is Chopin?
Me:
Ok, Chopin is a composer of piano. He left many beautiful melodies. He's Polish.
Irma:
Chopin, Frédéric François (1810-1849), Polish composer and pianist of the romantic school, widely regarded as one of the most influential figures...
I didn't hear his music yet
listen
Me:
I owned more than 100 CDs. I enjoyed all his melodies.
Irma:
Oh really? Are you a music lober too?
lover*
Me:
Yes, I like Chopin the most. I listen to music , but it's not difficult. Easy, everyone can do it!
Irma:
Do you know how to play a piano?
Me:
No, sorry..I admire those who can play. I was raised up surrounded in books, books, books. I hope I had time to spare time for playing the piano.
Irma:
Oh i see ..i hope you will have
you should give time sometimes
Are you happy on what you are doing?
Me:
Yes, I am.
Irma:
Oh thats' good it is your choice
Me:
Are you good at accounting?
Irma:

Me:
Because your job is related to it, also you majored in college.
Irma:
Yes i graduated in Bachelor of Science in Business Administration major in Accounting

Very nice.. you should be proud of it.
Irma:
yes,thank you
Are there a lot of Japanese who are selling for marriage?
Me:
I'm college graduate but mostly self-educated. I read tens of thousands of books, that made how I am now. As to selling marriage, I have heard of it.
Irma:
Because my friend told me if i would like to work and live in Japan i'd rather pay a japanese to marry me
but we will not live as couples
we will live separately
Me:
Yeah, if its marriage is valid, legal, superficially it's hard to tell whether it's based on real unity or false one. What I have heard is it cost 5000 US dollars, namely Japanese men get the money.
Irma:
in case do i have to pay that in cash or installment?
Me:
Not sure.. I just heard the sum of money Japanese receive. Probably instalment is possible. You can pay as you earn.
Irma:
oh ok thanks
Me:
You must find a broker there in the Philippines. But remember no ordinary Japanese involve such cases. You need to be careful.
Irma:
In case i would marry a Japanese can i be a Japanese citizen after 4 yrsZ?
yrs*
and be divorce?
Me:
If you got married to Japanese, you can get it for sure. You can get citizenship in marriage. Divorce cannot get rid of your citizenship in general.
Irma:
oh ok thats good
but in my case i am not allowed to marry if he is not belong in our church
it is difficult
i will be remove from the list in case i disobey
Me:
It is religiously speaking. Remember the case with your sister's husband. If really I am eager to marry someone, I would like to join her church. Religion is a matter of our mind.
Irma:
its because they married before joining
but if his husband had joined before marriage my sister will not be removed
Me:
I think it's a matter of course. We both need to join before our marriage. In general.
Irma:
yes
Me:
Do you want to marry Japanese guy who has the same faith?
Irma:
yes ofcourse
by the way, its getting late now eiko..nice talking with you

Me:
Oh..it's almost 11. Good night, Irma..

Me:
Fine.
Irma:
thats good..
just check my mails and saw you online
anyway, i have to take my dinner now
bye
Me:
Oh, it's so fast to leave.. ok..take your time.

One Sabbath breaker

Hello good evening Br **,

>Matthew completed his account about 41CE, only 8 years after Jesus death,while Marks was completed about 25 years later and Lukes 28 years later. It was only Johns that wasnt completed until 98CE.

This is a very useful information.

>Admittedly, this account seems quite unbelievable to say the least.

Nebuchadnezzar issued a decree which is all people should worship his statue. But idolworship is prohibited in Jews. Three young men didn't obey his order, then they were thrown into furnace. They never changed their faith in the face of their life and death. Their firm faith impressed the King a lot, so after this incident he never force Jewish people again to worship his statue.

Bible mentioned three were all saved by angels and they went to other places for their jobs later in their lives, which means in my view younger Jewish people other than three could enjoy their lives without breaking Jewish law or worshiping idols any more.

There were many wise prophets but Daniel was wiser than others. He not only invented a King's dream but also interpreted it favourably to King so that he couldn't deny. Regrettably three young men were wise but martyred on account of their faith. They are entitled to be called one of the earliest Jehovah's Witnesses.

Bible describes one Sabbath breaker was stoned to death. He was executed not by hanging, stubbing, but by stones. Why?
