Theos-Talk Archives (May 2008 Message tt00641)

Dear Anton:
Where did you pick this one up?
'We don't need a Watch Tower but many Beacons of

It is the TRUTH! However there are many silent
Watchers in the Universe...and personified evil.
Mara is the best teacher anyone can have, maybe in
these rural times he should have some holy-days?

Thanks Brother :-)
