A rare occurence from God

Have you not read rev 6 is when he got the crown. The ONLY ONE foretold to be getting the crown. So he did not have the crown prior to that point.
So, crown means kingship and kingship means to obey him. Tell us about the time that Jesus was not to be obeyed.

At Jesus baptism, God spoke from heaven( very rare) and said--This is my son the beloved in whom I am well pleased--LISTEN TO HIM.

1)Matt 6:33-- Therefore, keep on seeking- FIRST- the kingdom and his ( YHWH(Jehovah) righteousness and all these other things will be added. ( sustenance, covering, spirituality)Matt 6)-- The Father would provide those things.
2)Matt 5:5-- Happy are the meek for they will inherit the EARTH. ( Psalm 37:9-11,29)-- this has to be to the great multitude.
3)The Lords prayer--Hallowed be thy(Father) name ( YHWH(Jehovah)
4) Jesus teaches he has a God-his Father- John 20:17, Rev 3:12-- so does Paul- 2Cor 1:3, 1Cor 15:24-28, 1Cor8:6--Peter- 1Peter1:3--John at Rev 1:6--- One of the most taught teachings in the nt--Jesus has a God, his Father.
5) Jesus clearly teaches--at John 17: 1-6,26-- The one who sent him=Father( John 5:30) is THE ONLY TRUE GOD--Verse 6= YHWH(Jehovah) 26= YHWH(Jehovah)
6) Making John 4:22-24 an everyday accomplishment in a true followers life.

Do you believe Jesus?

Yes and accepted His New Covenant.

Christ the Son returned as the 'Glory of God', the Father is Baha'u'llah. The Greatest Name Baha = 9

All we can know of God are His given Names and Attributes as revealed by all the Messengers of God.

The wise place the king of kings above all other kings. And listen to him-FIRST-everytime. The kings of the earth fail to do so.
Are you actually trying not to understand?

Jesus received a crown, the kingship, thus, to be obeyed. WHEN was it God's will that he NOT BE obeyed? In other words, when he received a crown it meant that he was to be obeyed but I understand there never was one second in the history of life that he wasn't to be obeyed. Right?

That Jesus is said to have received a crown means NOTHING! Because it has always and forever been the will of God for him to be obeyed.

Yes, this is the 'Day of Jehovah', the King of Kings has come with a New Covernant from our One God.

God is above all Names and Attributes.

Mt Carmel has witnessed the 'Glory of God'. The Law now goes out from Zion and all nations flow up the mountain of the lord.

All going well, I will also again flow up this Mountain in December.

Yes it is very important for everyone to learn and apply ALL that Jesus taught. After all A very rare occurrence points all to do so. At Jesus baptism, God spoke from heaven--This is my son, the beloved in whom I am well pleased--LISTEN TO HIM. Few know what he taught. I show them and most claiming to serve him reject what he taught. Because they do not like it.

Correct, but the conquering white horse rider starts off the trib, so what is Jesus doing starting the trib by conquering what?


Jesus is doing things all along. YHWH(Jehovah) does it all through Jesus. ( Acts 2:22) Revelation is Gods will--it will all occur. We are far along into it.

Why do you do that?

2. If it was the Governing Board that received the food, why did your Organization tell us earlier that it was the "faithful and discreet slave class" as a whole ...the 144,000 "anointed"...that received the food? Was the Governing Board confused about who was getting food and who wasn't?

2) They never taught that--The majority of the 144,000 lived back in Jesus day.

That's not true and you know it KJW! Why do you make stuff up?

They most certainly taught it was the 144,000 "class", who as a whole were responsible for feeding the sheep "proper food at the proper time".

Let's do a quick reality check:

“Who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time? Happy is that slave if his master on arriving finds him doing so. Truly I say to YOU, He will appoint him over all his belongings.” (Matthew 24:45-47. New World Translation, emphasis added).​

There it is, right in your own bible. No sub-set of the "faithful and discreet slave" called the "Governing Board" but the entire slave class:

“Just as all members of ancient Israel formed one ‘servant,’ so also all anointed Christians on earth at any one time form ONE ‘faithful and discreet slave,’” (Watchtower, November 1, 2007, p. 30, emphasis added).​

So why did your Organization tell us it's all the "faithful and discreet slave" who gives "food at the proper time" but now tells us it's only the "Governing Board"? Also, why did the Governing Board split the slave in two, and where is the biblical support? Have they received "new light" that contradicts scripture?

When the master returns and finds some of the "faithful and discreet slave" giving food, while others refuse or fail to do so, won't he be upset? If not, please re-read Matthew 24:45-47 and tell us who the Happy slave is, and then read Matthew 24:48-51 which discusses the slave who doesn't fulfill their duty. Is the Governing Board setting the rest of the "faithful and discreet slave" up?

Since it it the Master who discharged this duty to the slave, how is it that one slave tells the other not to fulfill his duty while the Master is away? How can one slave tell another slave "you don't get to feed the sheep" when the Master has stated otherwise? Isn't this slave acting wickedly?

Also, if your Organization's interpretation is correct, why does the passage read "Who really is the faithful and discreet slave..." instead of "Who really are the faithful and discreet slaves..."??? In other words, why are you adding slaves?

Lastly, while you're explaining to us why "They never taught that" when we clearly see they did, can you explain why the Organization suggested it was Charles Taze Russell...by himself...who was the "discreet slave"?:

"Thousands of the readers of Pastor Russell's writings believe that he filled the office of "that faithful and wise servant," and that his great work was giving to the Household of Faith meat in due season. His modesty and humility precluded him from openly claiming this title, but he admitted as much in private conversation," (Watchtower, Dec. 1, 1919, p. 357).​

Is this another instance of something that was never taught but was?

You avoided my question, not surprised tho.

My question: If the white horse at the beginning of the tribulation is Jesus/Michael, what is He going out to conquer? It's not satan, nor the beast, nor the false prophet, so what is He conquering?
