TWO more rebellions after Armageddon- is it REALLY "Paradise"?

    As witnesses, we believed that for a thousand years in the New System ....life would be grand. At the termination of the thousand year rule of Jesus, we learned Satan would be let loose and many paradise dwellers would follow him. Many!

    Why do you suppose THE MAJORITY of mankind who had no Satan or demons to influence them, would want to follow a wicked wiley snake who already got his arse kicked twice now already from god for rebelling. He got kicked out of heaven and he got locked up in the can for 1000 years, and clean and rightous sin free mankind wants to follow him again to the point of becoming more plentiful than the rightous.( see Rev. book pictures) Life must not be that peachy there.

    But! BEFORE that...another rebellion takes place we forget about.

    In the Insight book Page 170 under the heading "christ hands over the kingdom" it discusses 1st. Cor 15:24-28. (Keep in mind this is "during" the 1000 year rule.)

    This is where christ brings to nothing all "governments" "rulerships" and "authority"

    The society explains that after the dead are all raised to life, then he brings all these things to an end. Whats that all about? Will governments, authorities, and rulerships exist in this wonderful new system? How come they never show that icky part in the pictures?

    Wow......Jehovah has to kick some arse DURING the thousand year reign on rebelling governments, and authorities, then at the end of the thousand year reign he has to kick arse again on the MAJORITY of mankind who rebel and try to attack the small band of do-good-er's. What a life!

    No wonder many dubs are living for today.

    The cleaning up is never finished! The people who survive after armageddon get to clean up for 1000 years. Then another big war and they can clean up God's mess again? paa-leeze

    LMAO !

    Maybe someone will post that quote I mentioned. It's sad to read. It tells that after jesus hands the kingdom over to his dad, then mankind stands alone to answer to Jehovah by their rightousness WITHOUT any help from jesus.....because his deed is done. "Wow.....now I get to stand before the big guy Jehovah if I screw up, and Jesus won't help me anymore". How comforting.

    God should have been a Social Studies teacher in a Junior High School. Adam and Eve were tested, Abraham was tested, the Isrealites were tested, Jesus was tested several times, we are being tested, in the 1000 year rule theres a test, I'm sure after the 1000 years ends some idiot will mess stuff up and it will start all over again!

    Whew, I need a cold drink and a Vicodan.

    GMFH,

    All this testing; it's part of God's "No sinner left behind" program.

    actually, gumby, I've asked myself this same question so many times. So many tests. It will never end. If, after the LAST test, certain ones mess up again, what will Jehovah do? Another thousand years of WHAT????????

    And this from a perfect creature who can tell the future, yet gives his creations freedom of choice and then writes a book to phrophicie it all.

    Its all so confusing!

    Homey........god doesn't test anyone...... remember? Shame on you!

    At least with fundamental christianity, once you have been Born Again, your all good. Sins are gone for good, no more tests, when you die you are with the lord forever with no more run in with Satan and his demons and buddies. Christians have a far better hope than any dub ever did.
