Deeje you think it is hilarious I would laugh also except it is the words of God that tell you "Jewish Male Virgins!" YOUR WORDS>>> you can’t believe that these 14,000 specially selected humans are physical virginsI’m sorry but that is just hilarious
You do understand that there is no gender in heaven.....even God is not male in the biological sense. Angels have no gender but always appeared as males to convey their God given authority.
For those of the “elect” (chosen ones) the apostle Paul writes: “You are all, in fact, sons of God through your faith in Christ . . . there is neither male nor female; for you are all one person in union with Christ Jesus.” (Galatians 3:26-28)
Many of the elect are biologically females whilst they are still on earth.....but once they have been resurrected, their flesh is discarded and they become spirit beings who can exist in the heavenly realm in the presence of God.
God is described as a “Father” and “Jesus describes as a “son” but this has nothing to do with biological gender...they are used because of this is the headship arrangement that according to their understanding placed God as the head and the males next in positions of authority. (1 Corinthians 11:3) Even Jesus has a head over him because he is not God.
Revelation 14:1-4....
“14 Then I saw, and look! the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with him 144,000 who have his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads. . . . 3 And they are singing what seems to be a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders, and no one was able to master that song except the 144,000, who have been bought from the earth. 4 These are the ones who did not defile themselves with women; in fact, they are virgins. These are the ones who keep following the Lamb no matter where he goes. These were bought from among mankind as firstfruits to God and to the Lamb”.
These ones described as male virgins.....you can’t believe that these 14,000 specially selected humans are physical virgins any more than you can assume that they are all males. Their “virginity” is spiritual because some of the apostles (e.g. Peter himself) were married (Mark 1:29-31) and as the first “popes” were.....as were many of the first Christians who were promised a role in the heavenly kingdom. When did Christ ever forbid people to marry? That was a sign of apostasy. (1 Timothy 4:1-3)
SCRIPTURES.... Are the words of God!
These are the ones who did not defile themselves with women; in fact, they are virgins.
Question were the JW Elders married?
Question were the JW Elders Jews!?
Here is the difference between the JW and the Christian.. Christians believe the words of God! The JW adds or subtracts from the words of God! The JW do NOT believe the words of God!
Long before the JWs came along; Jesus established a Church on ROCK not on sand it will never fall!
Also Jesus promised to be ALWAYS with his Church to the very end of time.. This means; Jesus cannot be with the JW or their Watch Tower because he did not start with them! The JWs were started by a MAN in 1860!
Deeje The scriptures tell us "Anti-Christs" will come along.. These are those who reject the Holy Body of Jesus! They are those who reject Mary! They are those who reject what Christians believe! Arius was one such "Anti-Christ" as prophesied! He reject sound doctrine he had false teaching he was called heretic he was doing Satan's work!
But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.
As already pointed out.. The JW must reject or twist or rewrite God' words to say what they want God to say!
They MUST reject Christian teaching to believe the Watch Tower, Satan' child!
