    All this works-based rhetoric only hides the real problem for JW's. They have been told a big fat LIE; and they swallowed it hook, line and sinker. That lie is that the New Covenant is only for those who want to go to heaven as a disembodied spirit. (JW's have no concept of a biblical resurrection where people are reunited with their body soul and spirit, regardless of where they are in God's family. But, that is for another discussion.)

    Naturally, if you think you have a choice in the matter, people will predictibly choose bodily existence with all the materials things that you now enjoy as well as those things that you haven't worked hard enough for, or become educated enough to get - here. You think people are going to willingly give up tacos?

    The reality is that the New Covenant is "for the forgiveness of sins" and has nothing to do with a limited number of offerings or whether you want to live in your body or as a disembidied spirit.

    And taking a cup, he offered thanks and gave it to them, saying: “Drink out of it, all of you, for this means my blood of the covenant, which is to be poured out in behalf of many for forgiveness of sins". Mt. 26: 27-28 NWT

    Even if a JW partakes and claims he is in the NC , he is still cursed because he is preaching another message for everyone else. The apostles never taught this nonsense. Gal. 1: 8-9 says that if you preach a different "good news" other than what the apostles preached, you are CURSED.

    So, this naturally begs the question: When JW's are destroyed at Armageddon for rejecting the NC "for the forgiveness of sins", will the survivors of Armageddon be able to aquire the houses of JW's for free since they will no longer need them?

    Interesting the book of Matthew was written by a unknown author some 40 years after the so called events and doesn't claim to be a eyewitness, the earliest copy of Matthew is dated around 250/60 ce .

    So how can anyone with any certainly make any claims as what was said and what was meant by the words Matthew 26:27,28.

    Sea breeze maybe your right and jws are wrong or jws are right and your wrong or your both right or both wrong.

    Despite much evidence to the contrary, that is hardly the point. The fact remains that the JWs believe that the Bible (including the eye witness testimony of Matthew) is the inspired word of God.

    And as such, it makes perfectly crystal clear what the New Testament is for: “the forgiveness of sins” as clearly stated.

    Yet, the JW’s with one voice claim it is for something else.

    Truly weird…. Like the word of God cannot be read without getting permission from WT first on whether or not to believe it. It is totally Satanic. If it was any other book, JW’s would not seek permission on what to think of what they read.

    BTW, I’m surprised no one caught my little joke about moving into JW houses after the GT.
