  "How Long Would Jesus' Reign Be?"

  by BoogerMan in

  simple enough question for a jw to answer, because the org has told them for over 100 years that, .

  a) jesus would reign for 1000 years, and.

  b) that his reign began in 1914 when he became king.

  Yes, God's time scale is different from ours. "Shortly" in Gr. τάχος, pert. to a relatively brief time subsequent to another point of time, ἐν τάχει as adverbial unit soon, in a short time Lk 18:8; Ro 16:20; 1 Ti 3:14; Rv 1:1; 22:6; shortly Ac 25:4 (BDAG).

  After Jesus' advice to the seven congregations, a voice would invite John: "Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this." (Rev. 4:1 ESV)
  

  Accordig to Peter: "But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." (2 Pet. 3:8 ESV)

  Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever." (Rev. 11:15 ESV)

  If the trumpet blasts and plagues make up the great tribulation, then he would become king in the middle of it. If the tribulation is seven years, each trumpet/plague would be 180 days, depending whether these are of equal length. His kingship of the earth would only be established after he subdues the earth, 'God making his enemies a stool for his feet,' thus after Armageddon.

  JW current stance on Vaccines?

  by lcarter017 in

  2. beliefs

  it came to my attention that the covid-19 vaccine works by editing the genetic code of the mitochondrial dna, using gene therapy.. you should seriously question the moral implications of allowing a part of your dna to be modified.

  does anyone have any concerns about this?if anyone has any questions, i can do my best to explain.

  i personally find it very suspicious how they chose to word it, and conveniently inform us of this fact "after" people have taken the vaccine..

  Joey, like you I was all for vaccines. You know, the kind that uses attenuated or dead organisms to teach your immune system to recognise and dispense of the real thing. After hearing of m-RNA "vaccines," I did some homework. Surprise, surprise, it turned out not to be a vaccine, but gene therapy, teaching your body to manufacture a toxin on the virus (spike protein) so that you can recognise the spike protein of the real thing. But if they can lie about a thing like that, what else did they lie about? Here goes into a deep, deep rabbit hole. By the way, a study finds ZERO Amish children suffer from cancer, diabetes or autism. Now, is that not interesting. I wonder why? Here's some graphs indicating that vaccines, the real thing, had a minimal effect on mortality.

  The option is "ignorance is bliss." I guess I'm not like that:

  Treatment of Those Trying For Reinstatement

  what happens when a jehovah’s witness who has been disfellowshipped returns to attending the meetings again?.

  mark jones writes:.

  if it's the same congregation that they previously attended then, yes, the congregation will remember who they are and so continue to treat them as dead or invisible.. one of the identifying marks a cult is that it uses shame and humiliation to control members, to keep them from leaving and manipulating those who escaped into coming back.. a disfellowshipped person is never allowed to quietly leave with dignity.

  Thanks Road to nowhere, I knew it had to be something like that. Judge, jury and executioner, like Judge Dredd.

  Icarter, the fact that you're alive and functioning should be good news. Many were not so lucky. There's quite a few spike protein detox plans available. I cannot recommend any specific one, but it's worth while trying them out. Most use natural supplements, so will not cause further harm. Dr. McCollough promoted Japanese Nattokinase, the only substance that he knows that binds spike protein. N-acetyl cystein slows the spread. Quercitin is a natural COVID defense. Here's one on fasting:

  Icarter, no they have cracked the genetic code and can manipulate it to their heart's content by means of CRISPR gene editing tools. That is not the end of it. To top it all, researchers have discovered DNA plasmid contamination in Moderna and Pfizer vials. These also have the potential of binding with DNA. This might be residue from the production process, or RNA strings that connect, forming plasmid rings. Here's an example of a plasmid.

  Here's an intersting Swedish study where the m-RNA reverse transcribed in liver (cancer) cell lines. The potential is therefore there to reverse transcribe into the DNA of normal liver cells.

  I know of a Witness asking the elders to be reinstated after a few monthis. Elder told her, we will decide when to reinstate you. Were they not happy with her measure of repentance? Is there a Witness time limit on repentace?

  Did Isaiah even predict Cyrus' name 150 years ago?

  did isaiah even predict cyrus' name 150 years ago?.

  there were two types of prophets: individual prophets and court prophets.

  for example, before ahab went to war, 400 court prophets predicted ahab's victory, but michaya, an individual prophet, predicted his defeat.

  Let's qualify. He was an eyewitness of events. Anyway. He was close to the action and you and I are very far from it. I believe he was an honorable man and you can believe whatever you want.
