Yes, their lives may have sufficient necessities, and maybe even some wants. Mine too.
But what about the 1/10th of the world that’s starving?
We may have food in our fridge, clothes on our backs, a roof over our heads and a place to sleep, but what about the 75% of the world’s population that...
Hello IANS.
Let me ask you: didn’t Jesus say His disciples would be hated by the world?
Who wants to be hated, really?
That doesn’t make him a bad teacher, at all (for the most part, people loved his teachings) …. It’s just that this world being full of divisive nationalism, condoning...
I’ve explained this, several times.
Almost all denominations of Christendom support the world’s conflicts, killing their enemies (Matthew 5:44) & even their brothers. — John 13:34,35; 15:12,14,17,19
And the very few that don’t, either worship a Trinity or Jesus.
Were the First-century...
And this is your “lollipop”, ain’t it?
(You know what I mean.)
So really, in this instance, you’re basing your beliefs on ‘what you want to believe.’ Because you have no source, right?
Why?
This actually agrees with what the Bible really teaches…
Genesis 3:19…. God told Adam (after he sinned), “YOU will return to the ground…to dust YOU will return.” God said nothing about Adam going to another realm.
Such ideas are from pagan Greek philosophy.
Ecclesiastes 9:5…. “The living know...
First, this….
Then….
I hope you realize you just contradicted yourself.
For those who are “chosen” (by God) to go to Heaven, there sure is an itinerary! A very important one!
If this were true, we wouldn’t go from door to door. Would we?
One thing about it, though: We try not to argue over Scripture. But we’ll confront any issue, calmly. Try us, the next time we’re at your door.
You didn’t answer my questions. (You didn’t even respond.)
As a part of Christendom, you had nothing to offer.
I know you didn’t. I didn’t either, before I came into the Truth.
And as I told you before, we don’t heckle; and I’ll call you on it.
I used to believe your posts were honest. But...
“….including Jehovah’s Witnesses…”?
Can you prove this statement?
What did you say to accomplish this feat? What denomination were you?
We know Christendom has no truth. The Bible teaches no hellfire, no Trinity, no immortal soul. Etc.
Surely some of these doctrines are what you at one time...
Are you saying JW’s heckled you?
We don’t resort to such tactics. Never have. That would be petty.
And you say that we are the “least knowledgeable” about the Bible?
Why are you writing these things?
I usually find your posts to be informative & honest, but this is basically tripe.
Your...
She has answers, believe me.
I’ll answer them later.
(Remember my previous post to you RE: Ecc12:7… ‘Because Jehovah owns it.”)
It’s too late for me to be coherent now, lol!
Because He owns it.
Another relevant Scripture, which I have used with you before in discussing death, is Psalm 146:3,4:
When a person dies, “his spirit goes out, he returns to the ground…”
Did you forget?
You can’t use only 1 Scripture to support a doctrine, while ignoring other relevant...
Actually, what you’ve been taught about the Bible, is mostly what Christendom has taught.
And unfortunately that has been influenced by pagan Greek philosophy.
Really, if Christendom had the Truth as taught from God’s Word, that would mean they had God’s spirit — you need God’s spirit to...
Still, the different evidences exist. The explanations of those evidences that you provide, your interpretations of them, are simply weak … ‘animals got too close to glaciers’ … :facepalm:
I was referencing the religious organizations themselves and leaders, not the individuals in the flocks...
No (not in this System).
Your future after your death, will “contain better times”, as you put it. The resurrected “unrighteous” of Acts 24:15 , are not worshippers of Jehovah.
The “judgment”, mentioned in that verse, is based on how they act / what they do after their resurrection. Not what...
Yes, for the most part, we have a positive attitude for the long run. We know better times are coming.
I will try to deal with more of your statements later.
You have a good day, too!
Unlike what Christendom teaches,
the Bible teaches that almost everyone who dies, will be resurrected.
God’s love is evident, when the Scriptures are properly understood. Even life again for the “unrighteous.” — Acts 24:15
Jehovah & Jesus, they both paid a heavy price because of their love for...
So, how can a person tell the difference (among Christianity)?
What’s the standard?
The ones who are obedient to Jesus, and following His & His Father’s commands (‘doing His Father’s will’): Matthew 7:21; John 15:12-14,17,19; Matthew 28:19,20;
Matthew 24:14; 1 Timothy 2:3,4
Not only has...
