  Prime example: The Bible says - (John 5:28, 29) " Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice 29 and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment." (RNWT)

  The WTBTS explain verse 28 this way - in every reference of this verse; w99 4/1 p. 18 par. 17 - " Yes, Jesus Christ promised that all those in Jehovah’s memory will be resurrected."

  In other words, only those whom God fondly remembers will be resurrected - because 'they are in His memory'.

  As for verse 29, they give this explanation - wt chap. 9 p. 87 par. 14 - They will be “judged individually according to their deeds” performed after their resurrection.

  So what the Governing Body says is going to happen is this;

  1) Evil people who have done VILE things (v. 29) are in God's memory!

  2) But these VILE deeds are not PAST deeds, they are acts carried out AFTER they have been resurrected - so we can expect muggings, rapes, murders, and thievings during the 1000 year reign on our Paradise earth, so that the perpetrators can then be judged as not being worthy of life!

  So Christ who will be ruling with an iron rod, will sit back while future EVIL deeds are carried out, then judge the offenders??????

  Paradise is not going to be as it is described at Isaiah 11:9.

  Methinks "twisted things" are being spewed from frog's mouths here!!!

  Watchtower loves to quote Rev 21:4 'and death will be no more' but actually a lesser known doctrine of the Witnesses is that people can still sin and thus die in paradise, making this promise a lie.

  This is because they use both Rev 21 and Isaiah 65 as prophecies about the 'promised paradise earth' and Isaiah 65 says people will still die. A real problem for them.

  And, WT wishes Hebrews 9:27 would just vanish.

  Why is there a war after the 1000 years.

  DESIGNS - Perhaps to test those who had never heard/accepted Christ, weren't righteous, and were not included in the FIRST resurrection?????? (Rev.20:5,6,12)

  a watcher

  designs, because Satan will be loosed briefly from his captivity and again mislead some of mankind to fight against Jehovah. At that time Jehovah will destroy Satan, the demons, and all disobedient mankind. (Rev 20:2,3;7-10)

  and of course these rapists, muggers, thiefs will die 100 years old (to give them time to change their ways) but young as a boy.

  I hope to be only a watcher and not a victim. Isa. 65:20

  some have suppressed these urges for nearly for a thousand years, and the rapists are not the resuurected ones, they come from among the survivors, the resurrected ones are neutered.
