Nonjwspouse I have made it a goal in 2017 to read the whole bible. I'm only on chapter 8 of Gensis so far.
Good for you! Please post/check in when you are reading Romans. That should be interesting. Are you reading it front to back with no WT materials? If so, that is how it is intended to be read If you rely on WT materials you will be intentionally biased. That isn't what you are trying to achieve , surely.

So literal people from the tribe of Gad? of Judah? lmfao seriously dude?
And pasting a link to JW.borg doesn't prove to me from the bible that slavery is condemned or rape. Morally condemned, think about that for a minute. In the OT you rape someone's daughter it's not considered a moral problem, it's considered you damaged her owner (fathers) property, now you have to pay him money and marry her.

7:5-8 Are definite numbers making up the definite 144000
This is not a JW teaching. The org says:
12,000 from one tribe = figurative
144,000 = literal

This guy is googling and jworging links and copy pasting as fast as he can without doing any real research
You have not shown me where the BIBLE condemns slavery or rape as immoral: Fail
You have not shown me with the BIBLE how 144k is literal, in fact you showed how silly it is by trying to included :9 which means we have to consider 5-8: Fail

You have to laugh at A Believer. Instead of spending his time spreading what he is delusional enough to see as truth to others who may be receptive, he is spending his time here. I wonder what his masters....errrr....elders would think about his use of time. More importantly, what would Jehovah think. I guess it kind of shows that he doesn't really believe like he says. Welcome to the dark side A Believer!

I agree. His being here clearly shows he doesn't believe at all.

When you are on here claiming that you know for 100% for sure that this is the one true religion according to the Bible, then yes, you should definitely have read it.

I've never heard that before.
That's pretty good.
