  The Multilocational Jesus

  by Smiles in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if jesus is now so superpowerful that he can exist at multiple locations simultaneously (e.g., dwelling inside of a true believer and popping into all the best gatherings of two or more peeps in his name) why does jesus bother hiring angels to work gigs?

  If Jesus dwells inside of people, why is he apparently not present where only ONE has gathered in his name?

  I must confess, brilliant way of putting it.

  Christ lives in me

  Axiomatically, this is symbolic like saying “God is my throne”.

  According the Bible, Jesus resides in heaven sitting at God’s right hand.

  According to Jehovah's Witnesses, who will be saved?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  2. beliefs

  i know who won't be saved according to witnesses and that includes just about everyone alive at armageddon who is not a jehovah’s witness.

  .

  others who are permanently lost include adam and eve, those who died in the flood, people of sodom and gomorrah and apostates to their one true religion..

  be reconciled to God NOW?

  Christians suffer and die now and some even fall away from the faith:

  1 Corinthians 15:22-28 (nwt-E) — For just as in Adam all are dying, so also in the Christ all will be made alive. 23 But each one in his own proper order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who belong to the Christ during his presence. 24 Next, the end, when he hands over the Kingdom to his God and Father, when he has brought to nothing all government and all authority and power. 25 For he must rule as king until God has put all enemies under his feet. 26 And the last enemy, death, is to be brought to nothing. 27 For God “subjected all things under his feet.” But when he says that ‘all things have been subjected,’ it is evident that this does not include the One who subjected all things to him. 28 But when all things will have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him, that God may be all things to everyone.

  This is the false gospel of the WT. It was unknown to the apostles

  says that there is NOW no condemnation for born again believers.
  

  You are incorrect:
  

  “(The rest of the dead did not come to life until the 1,000 years were ended.)” Rev 20:5

  Adam became a living soul not a dying soul. Humanity NOW is dying due to imperfection and sin. After the 1000 years when humans reach the point of perfection like before Adam sinned and became a dying soul, humans become living souls ( ..and to blow into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living person..”)

  “Now as soon as the 1,000 years have ended, Satan will be released from his prison, 8 and he will go out to mislead those nations in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Maʹgog, to gather them together for the war. The number of these is as the sand of the sea.”

  These people are not saved, fire comes down from heaven and destroys them. However, those that walk faultlessly will be saved. They won’t die. They will live forever on a paradise earth: “4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more.”

  This is not a false gospel. It is God’s word.

  No, the bible tells us exactly what will happen to the righteous and unrighteous.

  You don’t grasp mentally because we don’t know for sure what the Bible means by righteous and unrighteous first as it relates to those that will and will not be resurrected , so it is a guess.
  

  Note that there is a distinction between unrighteous and the wicked also. The verse does not say that the wicked will be resurrected. That distinction is made by God so we don’t know.

  Did becoming a JW influence you to give up something you enjoyed ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  when i was a teenager a younger fellow workmate was involved in the sport of judo.i got interested and went along to a number of sessions and took to it like a sponge to water ,and as a sport i was happy participating in.. not that much longer another workmate was getting re-activated in the religion of jw`s.

  which i had never heard o before and then got interested in that .. conflict : was judo a sport that was compatible with j.w beliefs?

  sadly i decided it was not and stopped any further involvement.. to this day i resent that decision i made back then .and i`m 82 years old now.. it was a sport i was comfortable doing and i enjoyed it.and i gave it up because of the religion .who knows what i may have achieved had i continued with it.

  Also, Smiddy as you and the rest of us know, sin is very enjoyable and to become a JW we had to give up sinning. We dedicated our lives to God and put that first in our lives and that also requires giving up a lot of things.
