Did Jesus have a Y chromosome?
by Fisherman ineven in jesus’s day, humans had chromosomes.
and so did jesus —because he was human.
so let’s say jesus took a dna test, his mitochondrial dna would go back to eve but interestingly jc also would inherit dna from sinful adam on his mother’s side because his mother mary passed on to jc dna from both adam and eve.

those that are supposed to live forever after the gt will also have Adams perfected dna.
Why would you think this?
Is. 65: 20 -
“No more shall an infant from there live but a few days,
Nor an old man who has not fulfilled his days;
For the child shall die one hundred years old,
But the sinner being one hundred years old shall be accursed.He who dies at the age of a hundred will be thought of as dying young; even the sinner, dying before his time as the penalty of his guilt, shall live out the span of a century.
The noticeable fact is that sin is thought of as not altogether extinct—as still appearing, though under altered conditions, even in the New World.

That is very interesting that Jesus inherited sinful Adam’s DNA
Not if sin is inherited on the Y chromosome. "by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men"

Shunning Disfellowshipped & Apostate family Members. Scriptural?
by objectivetruth inanyone who is a witness or was previously a witness, is aware of the written & un-written rules concerning association with disfellowshipped family members.. there are a multitude of quotes through out the watchtower publications, but these 2 will suffice.. "are you proving yourself holy by not associating with family members or others who are disfellowshipped?
"the clear instruction in the bible is: avoid them.
that means that we have to stay away from them... the bible says that apostates are mentally diseased and that they use their teachings to make others think like them... what must we do to avoid false teachers?

"Are you proving yourself holy by not associating with family members or others who are disfellowshipped?" (WS14 11/15 pp.15-20)
The title of the article is apostate because the bible says over and over: "There is no one righteous, no not one".

The Parable of the Hidden Treasure – Matthew 13:44
The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid; and from joy over it he goes and sells all he has, and buys that field.
A study of the Mt. 13 kingdom parables is a fascination study. The characters remain the same throughout the various parables. Jesus is the "man". The world is the field. The treasure is Israel which is in the world.
In order for Jesus to finally receive his throne in Israel, the one promised to him, he had to buy the whole world with everything he had... his life to get it. Once that was done, the kingdom existed in a mystery form in the hearts of believers.... a place not at first discernible, hidden in the "earth".
Later, when Jesus returns, the kingdom will be visible, tangible, in Israel with Jesus sitting on the throne of David.During the church age, or since the days of the apostles, Christians teach a gospel of reconciliation. The gospel of the kingdom will be preached by Israel (144K male virgins) during the great tribulation after the church has be evacuated. It is an Israeli message, whereas the gospel of reconciliation is a directed to "whosoever".

Russell says at 3:52: 15 - "not a passage of scripture" teaches that there will be a resurrection of the body.

Hypothetical Bible question for Christians
by BoogerMan inalthough not stated, is it possible that satan issued a challenge regarding adam & eve, just as he did with job?.
reason i ask: if you made something "perfect", why would you unnecessarily subject it to a trial/test?.
-

Sea Breeze
If YOU made something "perfect", why would you UNNECESSARILY subject it to a trial/test?
Why do you assume it was UNNECESSARY?
"I would not have known sin except through the law"
"But now we have been released from the law, because we have died to that by which we were bound, so that we may serve in newness of the Spirit and not in oldness of the letter of the law."

Why don't they just ask Pharaoh themselves? I thought that everyone paid for their sins when they died gets a do-over in the new system.
