Old Hippie,"They according to the WT very much ARE under Jesus' sacrifice and God's grace, and their past sins have been paid for thru the penalty of their death. But they are not yet perfect in the sence Adam and Eve originally were, and it is not until the end of the 1,000 year Kingdom that they will reach human perfection, after they have benefitted fully from Jesus' sacrifice and God's grace thruout the Kingdom and not rebelled. They are raised with penalty paid but not sin-free as to possible future sins."
They? I was referring to resurrected ones and you?
Hopefully you can see how confusing WT doctrines were in your personal life.
Geemaneeez Blondie what a bunch of work you did with WT quotes. What do you personally believe?

However, in reality … if there is such a thing , it's all about saving people, taking their sins away.
That is true!
According to Blondies Wt qoute that the resurrected ones are under Adamic sin! I can not get over that major error!
Apparently they are not under Jesus sacrifice! And Gods grace!
It so sad that the WT blinds so many to believe in a different Love!
A love with conditions!

Just wondering if anyone recognized the appearance of the arrival of the three horsemen? The answer to the ending question 16! Errrr!
The remaining job left for Jesus as this WT claims is Jesus riding the fourth horse. Great tribulation and only the righteous ones will stand, JW.
I guess Jesus will not be resurrecting anyone,Adamic sinful ones,if his remaining job is riding his horse with his crown given in 1914.
Just another Study WT full of errors!
Even the last article, the guy given his experience to speak Cambodia. He claimed it was because Jehovah's will for him to do so! Geemaneez if we said something like that the elders would talk to us! Only will Jehovah has for for his Will be done!
Apparently Gods will was for the Cambodia children to suffer torture! How come God did not will the evil people to stop hurting the children!
Such a stupid humanitarian article!
Lets just say this is one of the worse study WT and just burn them!
Cha Ching
You did an excellant job finding that error! or slow doctrine change! One more thing,I agree with your last post! So true!
Jesus will drink from that cup again new covenant.

Peter in Babylon? - 1 Peter 5:13
by Bobcat infor any looking over the wt study article for 3-30-2014, paragraph 9 refers to peter spending time in babylon.
the paragraph speaks of peter living in babylon as if it were a well established fact.
in fact, the only evidence for this idea is 1 peter 5:13.. see here for a writeup that analyzes 1 peter 5:13 and whether "babylon" really means the city of babylon.

preaching and memorial question
by caroline77 ini asked a jw why most of them don't partake of the bread and wine at their memorial, and was told that the command was given to the disciples only.. at the end of matthew's gospel, the command is given to the 11 disciples to go out and preach to everyone, so why do those who don't take the bread and wine go out knocking doors preaching?.
surely if only the disciples can take the emblems then only the disciples should preach.. no explanation of where the 144,000 come into it was given.. .

Good point!
What do you think about John 6?
How many times did Jesus state If anyone? and eternal or live forever.
It was offerred to a mixed crowd,great crowd. It was the Jews with good reasoning rejected what he was stating. They did not understand! Yet in Acts many believed including Jewish.
John 6
50 But here is the bread that comes down from heaven,
which a man may eat and not die. 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever.
Later they prepared for the Passover where Jesus example of the new covenant.
Asked the brother how does one know he/she should partake?
As far as preaching, it is the same simple bibical concept.
Anyone who believes in Jesus should teach everything that Jesus taught! Paul states a few things to preach. Paul Last Supper All partook.
Also they were bowing to Jesus when he said,"All power and authority was given to him!"
One more thought,
I did not realize for many years that the JWs only believe New Testament scriptures and Pauls congregations were the 144,000. So the NT and Pauls writing were not fir the great crowd! They were 144,000. I think that is just made up bull! It was a wake up call. And it is how elders know who are apostates.
So asking your questions now marks you!

Sorry to hear about your mother in law. It is hard on every one.
Considering she was not a baptized members, the elders will suggest a funeral hall sermon or grave side.
They do not provide dinners.

According to WT rules, the virgin Mary and Jehovah are guilty of Por'neia!
by BU2B inaccording to wt tamud, if a jw does in-vitro fertilization, carries a surrogate child, uses a surrogate, and so forth then it is "por-neia".. the bible says that mary was a virgin when implanted with the embryo of jesus christ.
under the mosaic law adultery was punishable by death.
since mary was already engaged to joseph, if she was to sleep with another man it was the same as adultery in the eyes of the law.
