so in my limited quest on here and elsewhere, i am intrigued by the kind of canned responses that come from conversations with my friends and family about "my doubts".
these are of course conversation i usually should not have had in the mind state i was in, or in any state right leaving wt?.
anyways, i wanted to throw out here some of the common things espoused, and see what you all thought was a fair and even handed response.
2) (related to 1) Jehovah is a God of order, .......according to Genesis 1:1 the earth had no order or form just darkness, untill his Spirit went to work. So the Holy Spirit creates order out of chaos.
1) But Jehovah has always had an organization... Yes, allways, actually from eternity before time, his Holy Spirit and his personified Word and Wisdom the source of life, light and truth..... It's a kingdom of love and a dynamic dance.....He still uses this system today.
jws believe the book of revelation offers an account of what is to come in their lifetime.
but the problem is that every generation for the last 1900 years has thought the same thing.
and, every generation has been wrong, even though each new one thinks it will be about me and my generation this time.. most reputable bible scholars believe that revelation, also called the apocalypse of john, was not written to describe the future for people living today.
Your invisible presence is all we need ;)

Data-Dog *** So if Revelation was fulfilled in the 1st century and Satan was defeated, then in what sense is Ultimate justice being restored? What is going on right now? What are we all doing here?! Just curious. I do not claim to know anything.***
I believe we are living in the millinum right now, the era of grace , right at Revelation 20:1-6, in the First Resurrection, spiritual rebirth, new heavens above....we are awaiting Revelation 20:7-15. but we discussed this before.
