Hi Kenrch.Are any of your other workmates (those with or without a religion) interested in your religious beliefs?

What is a kingdom?What is God's kingdom according to scripture?

Jesus answered: “Most truly I say to you, Unless anyone is born from water and spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.” (John 3:5)I know your whole religious belief system is wrapped around the thought that you must be born again to be saved. But what does this scripture actually say?What is the kingdom?What does it mean to enter the k…[Read more]

Quote Where does it say God only supports certain righteous civil leaders? It does not and you have stepped again outside of scripture to make such a claim.I didn't say this and neither do I believe it. In fact I believe quite the opposite, that he does not support the politicians of this world under Satan's control. Perhaps you were confused…[Read more]

Quote Are you suggesting that if we were faithful JWs like you we would have had perfect health?I don't remember ever suggesting anything like this. I don't know where you got that from. As soon as you said it, I was about to tell you about Paul, but then I read your next line and see you beat me to it.My point was that “the flock of Christians…[Read more]

Quote This is what has been stopping me from seeking fellowship with JWs. I believe much of what they teach but they are missing the understanding in this area Nick, since k4c has said that he believes “much of what teach,” you are essentially saying that k4c also has bizarre and unbiblical beliefs (unless you were referring soley to those couple…[Read more]

Hi K4c,Here are some thoughts on what you've said. If God chooses to support a human king, then of course that king should be supported. But which king is he supporting today K4C? Is he supporting all of them? Is he fighting against himself with the wars? God does not fight against himself. Back then, there was the nation of Israel. It was…[Read more]

Hi K4c.First, I'd imagine out of curiosity, they would ask how it is possible to be a a military politician policeman security guard.As for law enforcement, most of Jehovah’s Witnesses avoid employment that would require them to carry a weapon, since they do not want to incur bloodguilt by taking a life. (Exodus 20:13; Matthew 26:51, 52) It s…[Read more]

Quote Also David I know you must have posted it somewhere on the board. Could you tell me where to find a post on why you believe Jesus is Michael. I know that JW's believe this, but I don't know why.Take Care, Bastian.Hi Bastain. In the General Questions section, the one we're in now, I think under the heading 'Jesus/Michael', beginning in the…[Read more]

Again, more attacks on Jehovah's Witnesses, but not a lot to say about hades/hell. t8, if what I say is true, why attack? We are speaking about hades/hell.t8, I really wish you would speak on this subject more. I agree with most everything you say on this subject. Nick disagrees with us on this subject t8. Clearly, he or you is wrong. Why…[Read more]

Hello K4cWhile I'm certain that Satan will argue with what I am to say, because he doesn't want people to know about Jehovah, I'll simply say this:If you have the right heart and you really are searching for the truth, it will find you. Secondly, if you would like to know about Jehovah's Witnesses as a people, go to a kingdom hall. Meet the…[Read more]

Quote Where is the consistency here? The difference is with the trinity, there are a hundred clear verses that disprove the trinity for every vague verse that they twist.With Jesus/Michael, there are admittedly few verses that touch on the subject. But they all point in one direction and there aren't any verses that contradict.Quote Did they…[Read more]

Hey guys, It is evident that Jesus used Gehenna (“hell” in your Bible) as representative of utter destruction resulting from adverse judgment by God, hence with no resurrection to life as a soul being possible. (Mt 10:28; Lu 12:4, 5) The scribes and Pharisees as a wicked class were denounced as ‘subjects for Gehenna.’ (Mt 23:13-15, 33) To avo…[Read more]

Quote What if the flock you are clinging to teaches falsehoods such as Jesus being Michael the Archangel and the Holy Spirit just being the power of God? All indications are that Micahel the Archangel is Jesus, as I have demonstrated in the the Jesus/Michael thread. While there are several strong implications that point to the logical conclusion…[Read more]

Hey Nick.I believe I've asked this before, but how are you recovering?I'm not trying to divide you and t8. You are definitely already divided on certain beliefs. I'm simply pointing out that since you disagree, one of you must presently be wrong. You continually lump me in with your dislike of organized religion. And that is the right attitude…[Read more]

Quote So it is bounded by time then? By definition, “eternity” goes on forever. It doesn't go on for three seconds or five days. It cannot stop tommorow or in a year. So it is bound or restricted as to when it will end. In fact, eternity has no end.I'm not really sure where you were going with that question or line of reasoning.Nick that…[Read more]

Quote Hi david,Have you learned anything ever outside of your JW doctrines? The quick answer: I've learned from this forum that apparently, the word “God” has pagan origins. But, a couple weeks ago, I came across that fact in an old Watchtower magazine. So I'm not sure if that could be taken as a “yes” to your question.The slightly longer…[Read more]

My dictionary and most peoples understanding of that word would be:”Infinite or unending time.”

Quote Actually, let's let you have the last words Nick. Of course, I was typing this while you were writing that God should have the last say, and was not commenting on your statement, but rather on mine where I said: “That's my final word on this…..”

Quote Of course, david, our God will have the final say. He will be proved true though every man be shown to be a liar. Right, and here's what His Word says, in very clear plain language, (meaning not the symbolic sometimes hard to understand language of Revelation):“They shall suffer the punishment of eternal destruction.” (2 Thess 1:9)
