What does this even mean?Allow me to rephrase what I said before.
Do the JWs even realize that their beliefs run completely contrary to what Jesus taught regarding what our attitude should be regarding this world?
It's kind of sad when a Baha'i has to be pointing out what is in the Bible since it is not even our holy book.
John 12:24-26 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.
Matthew 6:19-21 Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Does it 'matter' to you what Jesus said?
Why do JWs love their lives on Earth so much that they want to be resurrected back to life so thy can live on Earth forever?
Why do JWs lay up their treasures on Earth instead of in Heaven?
This goes against what Jesus has instructed us to do.
If you would answer my questions I would not have to say you are like a kid who just wants a lollipop.
You are either like a kid who wants a lollipop or you do not care what Jesus said, as noted above. You cannot have it both ways.
We are no part of this world…. storing “treasures on the Earth”? We don’t!
It - this world - is going down!
1 John 2:15-17; James 4:4
There’s a big difference between this planet & the world on this planet!
The vast majority of JW’s, including me, hope to be part of “the meek [who] will inherit the Earth.” (Matthew 5:5; psalms 37:10,11,29)
I’m not answering your questions? I have been… you just don’t like the answers.
