BT - thanks again for your all the obvious effort you've gone to in writing back.
OK let's just say for the moment I'm sold - what's your point?
To be honest your post above seems to be heading back into the "should've been posted under Sci Fi/Fantasy forum" territory again.
Over to you bro'-Solidsender

BitterTruth – thank you for taking the time & effort to write such a coherent post.
I was very impressed with it. Getting straight to the heart of the matter – I may be reading you wrong but what you seem to be suggesting however is the replacement of one man made mediatorship ( the WTBTS ) for another ( Reformed WTBTS or whatever you want to call it ).
As we both appreciate from scripture we all account before God & Christ as individuals under the new covenant founded upon love. To revert to a man made mediatorship is to return to the pre christian, old covenant position founded upon law. This is the basics as you know, but to me that is the beauty of the christian faith, it’s profound simplicity.
Hence my confusion in regard to what you are attempting to say.-SolidSender
what everyone else believes:[quote]that christ is to come a second time was foretold by the prophets and by christ himself, as well as the apostles and the angelsdan 7:13; matt 25:31; acts 3:20; acts 1:10, 11it is called, among others,time of refreshing from the presence of the lord,of restitution of all thingsand glorius appearing of the great god and our saviourtit 2:13;acts 3:19,21. the time thereof is unknown, but the signs which are to precede it are fully set outmatt 24:36. in his second coming christ shall appear in the clouds, in his own glory and accompanied by angels.
