    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    the details are not realistic.... pearls for gates??? You seriously think a roadway made of 'gold' is going to be as clear as 'glass' C'mon this is called hyperbol. Its like putting a 'camel thru the eye of a needle' its designed to make a point, yes, but its not designed to be taken literally.

    Likewise, if we can be figurative temples and God himself is the temple of the new jerusalem, then the new jerusalem can also be figurative.

    JW's Preach A Different Gospel

    Thankyou kate... you make a good point about the goal to reach perfection and thats absolutely right... we must reach perfection as Jesus is helping us to do. And Pauls counsel to 'move beyond the elementary teachings' is one way we can do that. You see, if you continually feed a baby milk...

    You said he was superhuman.... but his power to perform miracles came from Jehovah.... he didnt have superhuman power on his own because he was not God as some people like to believe. do you not see the illogical contradiction here?... on one hand you say the city is physical but the same...

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    Yes i agree, initially the 'little flock' were all Jews for the Jews were called first according to Gods Will and as stated at Romans 1:16 - 17 “I am not ashamed of the good news; it is, in fact, God’s power for salvation to everyone having faith, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.”...

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    I completely understand, we do come from a very different mindset and that can be frustrating at times. So I thankyou for your patience :) As christians it would be wrong of us not to show due respect to the governments... the scriptures even say they are permitted to rule by God himself...

    The Ultimate Explanation

    probably the human face, head, ears, eyes, arms, hands, legs, skin.... its all human. What I would base the deformity on depends on a few things... what is the environment like where these people live? Is there nuclear waste nearby, have they been poisoned by radioactive material in their...

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    That was only after he died as a man and was raised as a spirit. Spirits have the ability to materialise into human form... but Jesus was not part spirit when he was born. He was 'fully human' for he had to correspond to the first man Adam who was also fully human. Thats gotta be a mighty...

    That wasnt a trick question. Let me put it to you another way... if you had a choice to vote for Jesus (the real Jesus), would you?

    Can someone explain the Trinity please...

    There are two principles in the bible which make belief in the trinity impossible for those who know the principles. The first principle is found in Deuteronomy 6;4 “Listen, O Israel: Jehovah our God is one Jehovah He always was One. Never is the God of the bible described as being a triune...

    The Ultimate Explanation

    I dont know if anyone, even a very ignorant uneducated person, would be confused about this. Its a deformity. Of course it is human... just unfortunately very deformed.

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    Ok, so lets think about it. If you saw on your election paper all the names of the representatives, then right at the bottom you saw the name "Jesus Christ" Who would you choose to vote for?

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    Well to be clear, we dont advocate for no government at all. We advocate for Gods Government and that is precisely why we dont vote at elections, join the armed forces or get involved with the running of countries as politicians. We are law abiding citizens because we submit to Gods...

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    This may sound strange, but you know we already had hybrids on earth and God saw fit to remove them. They didnt belong here. Half angel/half man was not approved by God in the days of Noah and he saw to it that they were all removed from the earth. Do you think its a physical city...

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    Consider this... if Jesus is higher then all the holy angels in heaven, and they all come under his authority as we do, how will h8s authority be expressed in heaven if he has to lower himself by heading down to Jerusalem to be become a speck of dust as we are? How can a physical Jesus be at...

    Why would it matter what nationality rules any given country? The Japanese gave us Sushi :p And they are a very civil and respectful people. I wouldnt mind a Japanese person being the head of our little piece of dirt.

    You raise a good point Katzpur. But isnt it true that even with governments, we still have a degree of Chaos? Can you imagine what it must be like to live in Iraq or Syria or Egypt at the moment? Those countries have governments, and yet chaos reigns. What does it tell you about human...
