What evidence is there for a biblical jesus?

by Touchofgrey in

is there any independently verified evidence that a miracle worker called jesus existed and did the things that the bible said he did?.

the four gospels were written by unknown authors many decades after the so called events, so can't be considered as eyewitness accounts.

i think that there may have been a apocalyptic preacher who was executed by the romans and the story evolved from their.

If you don't believe in Him, then why do you spend so much time talking about Him?

How did JWs arrive at a clearer understanding of what the Bible teaches than other Christian denominations?

by slimboyfat in

for jws who believe that jehovah had a hand in reviving the truth in the nineteenth century this is enough explanation for how jws managed to achieve a closer approximation to early christian beliefs and practices than other groups.

but is there an explanation for this phenomenon that doesn’t rely on supernatural intervention?

Jehovah mentioned Jesus in the Genesis 3:15 prophecy.

That was at the beginning of human history.

The fact that we still have a record of it today shows people have been talking about it from that time to this.

As regards the word "opposers" - I do not subscribe to the fantasy world teachings that some psycho-students do ("psycho" short for "psychology" of course) that theories take precedence over reality.

There are people who oppose truth in the world. There are people who oppose God. Making up theories and fairy tales doesn't negate reality.

God exists. If a person wants to reject Him, He will reject that person. Opposing the source of life is a way to embrace death. How's that fit into your rejection model?

Isaiah 19 is future fulfillment.

Revelation talks about people out of all nations, including Egypt.

Revelation also talks about the city that is in a spiritual sense called Sodom and Egypt.

Freemasonry tradition views Egypt as one of their mothers, which is why Russell was so stuck on it, same as the GB today. "1914" doctrine was birthed from pyramidology.

The current WT leaders are freemasons of the Egyptian esoteric tradition. They are not witnesses of Jehovah. They are two-faced satanists. (Nothing personal against "satanists" - the word "satanist" in this context means those who oppose truth or resist it.)

The "fascination" wasn't shared with other Christians. It was shared with other Egyptian esoteric freemasons.

Freemasons build corrupt empires. That's what they do. The various religious institutions of Christendom were built by masons. That is why there are so many false doctrines in them.

Leaders of the Catholics, Baptists, Adventists, LDS, JWs, etc - masons are satanists. They seek to take truth and corrupt it. They learned how to do it from the pharisaical leaders in apostate Jerusalem who infiltrated the early Christian congregation.

Smyth went to the pyramid with Russell after Russell shared Russell's theories on pyramids.

Proof of two destinies for believers in the Bible, heavenly and earthly

by slimboyfat in

the jw idea that believers are destined either for heavenly life or for endless life on earth comes in for significant criticism by critics of various kinds.

even some groups, such as the christadelphians, who share belief in a future paradise earth, don’t share the view that some christians are destined for life in heaven.

yet there is surprisingly quite a lot of evidence in the bible for the existence of two distinct groups of believers.

I don't know Alan.

I know Jehovah is a father.

A parent doesn't have kids just to give them away or to abandon them.

A Real Father acts like a real father.

Do you have kids?

@peacefulpete said: pyramidology
It was a fad. Not making excuses for anyone, but stupidity is different than demonic conspiracy.

It was not a fad.

Weaving paganism into a religion and labeling it "Christian" is not a fad. It is demonic. It is satanic. It was deliberate.

It was not a fad.

God destroyed the reputation of the idols of Egypt during the ten plagues. He destroyed the Egyptian army, including their "god" Pharaoh, at the Red Sea.

Who would want to reintroduce any form of pyramidology/divination crap and mix it up with the Bible to ensnare Christians and corrupt their worship?

Satan is the ruler of the world. He is the one who Charles Taze Russell was in bed with. CTR was a mason/sorcerer/satanist. He purposely wove those false doctrines into the religion, and Satan rewarded him with money and power over people.

The leaders of the Watchtower today have also been willing to do "acts of worship" to the Devil in order to gain power and glory and money and people to abuse.

Which is why they promote blood fractions while at the same time lying to the flock about blood fractions not being blood; which is why they claim to hate abuse but at the same time promote people who do CSA and defend them by means of disgusting "two-witness" rule that isn't scriptural; which is why they claim to be "Jehovah's Witnesses" while teaching things that God hates like the antichrist disfellowshipping doctrine and the divination based 1914 teaching.

The Watchtower organization is a masonic organization. That is what masons do. They lie and build empires based on their "worship" of T.S.A.O.T.U.

Same idea with the context of John 1:18.

John spoke figuratively a lot. "In the beginning was the Word." Jesus is not literally a "word" just like he is not literally "light." John speaks figuratively.

When John said "no man has seen God at any time" he then qualified that by saying Jesus is the one who explained what God is like in full heavenly glory. Jesus explained what God is like in His full heavenly glory. John learned from Jesus how to describe that heavenly glory: "God is love."
