    This is what Jesus said

    Matt 24-14

    14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

    Looking at this verse what is the central theme? the gospel [which means good news] or the Kingdom

    Its the Good News of Gods Kingdom.

    What group preaches the Good News of Gods Kingdom as Jesus predicted? The Churches of Christendom? or Jehovah;s Witnesses.

    Well in order to preach this gospel you would have to believe its operational would you not?

    Was this Kingdom predicted in the Old Testament ?

    When was it to be established?

    What exactly is God Kingdom

    The answers to these questions will mistakenly proof what religion God is using and which one is of the Devil,of the Devil? have you ever heard a witness say one of two religions preaching Christ is of the Devil? Take Islamic religions do they preach Christ? NO,so they are eliminated which condemns close to 1.6 billion worshipers to death forever because Jesus said after the Good news is preached the End will come.

    The circling is believed to demonstrate the unity of the believers in the worship of the One God, as they move in harmony together around the Kaaba, while supplicating to God.

    What does this have to do with the Good news about Gods Kingdom as Jesus predicted bu just millions walking around a shrine of Idol? NOTHING

    What about Mormons they believe in Jesus? yes but
    they do not believe in biblical inerrancy. They have also adopted additional scriptures, including the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price.

    Do they preach about Gods Kingdom? NO instead they believe an angel named
    Moroni provided gold plates in upstate New York which was the basics for book of Mormon

    This religion is elimanated and 17 million face death



    Angel moroni

    False Idol worship by Mormons


    OK lets answer those questions to see what religion is approved by God

    Was this Kingdom predicted in the Old Testament ? YES

    44 “In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever.

    So the prophet Daniel predicted one day God would set up his heavenly Kingdom the same one Jesus predicted would be preached in the end times where we are now. He also predicted God kingdom would take action and eliminate all earthly Kingdoms or governments which is what a Kingdom is.

    "It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end"

    This must then be the end Jesus spoke of


    "and then the end will come."


    When was it to be established?

    JWs say 1914 when do Churches who preach Christ say it was established? They dont


    “In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom"


    What exactly is God Kingdom

    The Kingdom of God is a heavenly government. It will replace all other governments and will cause God’s will to be done in heaven and on earth. A kingdom must have a king. Jehovah appointed his Son, Jesus Christ, to be King of His Kingdom.

    Revelation 11:15

    15 The seventh angel blew his trumpet.a And there were loud voices in heaven, saying: “The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lordb and of his Christ,c and he will rule as king forever and ever.

    What Biblical message should be proclaimed now according to Jesus himself ?

    The question should be “What Biblical message should be proclaimed now according to the Biblical writers who wrote the story of Jesus ?”

    Jesus preached the gospel of the kingdom. Paul preached the gospel of the kingdom. That kingdom was established in 33 AD with the in filling of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost.

    1914, Pastor Russell, Rutherford and company, Watchtower Society etc. has nothing to do with the kingdom. The kingdom that was and is established is the church of God which consists of every true believer in Christ Jesus.

    Everything else is just counterfeit christianity.

    @ sir82,

    I think he's just trolling. Be my surmise. Either that or he tucks tail when he's flat out wrong or doesn't have supporting evidence.

    Lol. If Alex is serious about this he's being rather silly. 99.9% of the people on this forum have studied silly claims and articles just like his for many years.

    Dear Alex,

    You're not telling anyone here anything new. Your approach is like the approach of a salesman who keeps pushing after you told him you already owned the product, it sucked, and you'll never buy that product again.
    It's counterproductive and a waste of both your and our time.

    You have our permission to write some field service hours on your report slip for preaching on this forum even without writing new posts.

    Oh, and it looks like you're violating Watchtower copyright. Some people on the internet have experienced that Watchtower doesn't take lightly to that. Watchtower are willing to sue people over putting a single image from their literature on the internet unauthorized. So don't be surprised when Watchtower's lawyers come knocking on your door....

    The kingdom was supposed to have come in glory in Jesus' day: " I tell you this: there are some of those standing here who will not taste death before they have seen the kingdom of God already come in power". Mark 9;1 NEB It reads like a good story but is very bad on prophecy-- the writers of Jesus' script got it wrong.

    So why bother listening to people who promise paradise and always get the timing wrong? There is no such thing as the kingdom of God, it's not a reality it's a scam.

    Alex forget this Bible nonsense and get a proper life. If you believe this Watchtower trash you will stay forever deluded and mentally dependent as a child is.

    Every Christian denomination has made similar claims, to be the ones "preaching the Kingdom".

    A bit of perspective is in order. The author here and in the Great Commission of Matt 28 was projecting upon the lips of Jesus what he felt Jesus would have wanted, what he believed the church's mission was. If Jesus had actually said to go preach to all nations in the listening of the Apostles, surely the story in Acts where the apostles were resistant to preaching outside of Jews stands out as rather rebellious. Only Paul was interested in it. Was he the only obedient one? the one who claimed he never learned anything from the apostles, This Paul the one who said he had a new spin on Christianity, one involving a Christ Crucified. The Gospels weren't written yet, Paul certainly didn't read them or quote from anything like a Gospel. The Gospels were in fact written after the influence of Pauline Christianity had spread. The commission to preach to all nations only makes sense after this time.

    Also note at Matt 28 Jesus claims all authority and power in heaven AND earth. Isn't this logically contradicted by the teaching that Jesus received power in 1914? I'm aware that there is a JW response to this question , I'm just hoping you can see the strain it puts of the words to do it.
