Jesus 1000 years and Satan's 1000 years in the abyss

by berrygerry in

the thread about satan in the abyss for 1000 years prompts a question.. jesus will rule for 1000 years.. jesus began ruling in 1914, which means his 1000 year reign will end in 2914.. satan will be abyssed for 1000 years.. if the end comes in 2020, satan will be abyssed in 2020, and then released in 3020.. what happens between 2914 and 3020?.

honest question..

Captain Obvious

Then why was the 100 (so far) year reign in between the two events not foretold? According to JW lore

Have you ever given CoC to a JW to read? Or any other "red pill" book?

i recently ordered a copy of coc for my wife.

she doesn't know it exists, but i'm hoping she's ready to read it.

it seems to be the best red pill out there.

Thanks for your input. From your experiences I'm not 100% sure she's ready. She's just sort of clinging on for family and friends. She's afraid of what leaving will do to our lives. She still believes, but knows there's a real reason why I left.

She knows she needs to be doing research, but fear is holding her back from starting. She needs to inform herself and make a decision quickly, I can thang on much longer pretending to be a JW and living a lie.

What else would be good to help open her eyes? Yes I've read Hassan's books and use his methods but seem to be stuck. We've watched The Unbelievers documentary (her idea) and most of Cosmos but still isn't convinced. Been convinced by the WT to distrust science. I think the next time the subject comes up I may direct her towards JWfacts. I've avoided this in the past, waiting for her to start looking on her own.. Which isn't happening so far.

Have any of you done that before? What was the reaction/result? It seems to be the best red pill out there.

Let's talk red pills. For me it was researching info on 607. Pretty soon I was reading JW facts, and that was it. Go right for the jugular.

What was your red pill? How did you find it?

Soo.. If the millennium is still future, and must be so to match Satan's Abyssing.. Then the bible is wrong. It is not a millennial reign.

If the millennial reign really is for a millennium and that is the same 1000 years that Satan is abyssed, then the WT is wrong.

How can that be?

A chilling reminder of the danger of cults: May this never happen again

remains of people's temple cult members still unclaimed.

very sad tragedy.

As gross as it is, the WT has claimed so many more lives. Of course a JW will try and argue this point, I think it's a good parallel to draw with them. The Jonestown massacre was people killing themselves for their faith in their leader. A JW who refuses medical treatment is just the same.

The most chilling are photos that show dead children at Jonestown. Almost as disturbing as this Awake cover.
