No Questions, No Answers!
by bjc2012 inthe road to god's "truth", divine truth, is the same.
it takes real, real "effort" before truth, divine truth can be achieved.

First Century "Parousia" of Jesus
by bjc2012 indid you notice that paul says one "resurrection" was to occur at his "parousia," and one during the "end"?
yes, one resurrection at christ's "parousia," and one at the "end," ...one at the "end.
so, first century christians placed the second coming of christ, the second "parousia," the "return" of christ...before the "end"...much even before the "end.

"Sacred Secret" of God Revealed In Th...
by bjc2012 in"but in the days of the sounding of the seventh angel, when he is about to blow his trumpet, the sacred secret [greek: mysterion, "mystery"] of god according to the good news which he declared to his own slaves the prophets is indeed brought to a finish.
the key to understanding god's purposes for all mankind is to be found within the prophetic words of the "prophets" of old.
in fact, the entire book of revelation is a complete compilation of all the prophets of old, the fulfillments of their words, for our modern times.

You Know and the "Presence of Christ"...
by bjc2012 inregarding the date of 1914 and the "presence of christ" starting at that time, you know made the following comment, .
nevertheless, while it is obvious to me that the kingdom of the world was not given to christ in 1914, or any time since then, i am not willing to discard what appears to me to be a mountain of evidence that christ's parousia has been ongoing since that time.. comment made march 31, 2002 at this link:.

Christ "Enthroned" in 1914 -- Truth o...
by bjc2012 in"he is the reflection of [his] glory and the exact representation of his very being, and he sustains all things by the word of his power; and after he had made a purification for our sins he sat down on the right hand of the majesty in lofty places.
it means absolutely nothing to all of jws worldwide.. why do we say such?.
he is just sitting there, "awaiting" upon his time to start his kingdom rule, which of course comes in the year of 1914, the year "discovered" by charles russell.

by bjc2012 inhi silentlambs:.
i wanted to point out a particular verse or two in the book of ezekiel that i thought could be powerfully pertinent to your cause in exposing child abuse in the organization of jehovah's witnesses.. what if in bible prophecy, jehovah god pinpoints this particularly unique and regretable "situation" you are dealing with for avid bible students today, and the resulting aftermath of it, when exposed to the world?.

For JWs: Proof! --Jesus' Return In First Century!
by bjc2012 inthese words were translated as either presence [parousia], coming [echomai] or arrival [eltho] in the new world translation.
but all we are saying is that the word ...can, can, can mean "coming", a simple "coming" of a person.
we remember jesus christ made an initial visit, or had a first coming, to inspect the temple for god, as the messenger of the covenant.

Jesus Died For........
by bjc2012 init is a well-accepted fact that jesus as an israelite was under the mosiac law covenant.
as he himself said at matthew 5:17: do not think i came to destroy the law or the prophets.
i came, not to destroy, but to fulfill.
