Is WT Teachig on Hell Biblical?

by Sea Breeze in

i guess you could say jesus was the first christian, since he was the christ.

and as the first christian, jesus spoke more about hell that any other biblical figure.

but, he is also the figure that said that he didn't come to condemn the world, but to save it.

aqwsed12345...that picture on that link is horrid and demonic. Christ Jesus would never ever ever ever do anything like that because Jesus does everything like his Father would, and his Father is the God of Love.

Why is there a prologue letter from Pope Pius IX who died in 1878 if the publication was produced in 1905? What was the Bishop trying to prove? He mentioned scriptures out of context and misapplied them, and then used Greek philosophies of Plato and Socrates to try to back up his dark fairy-tale story.

Here's a clue when searching for truth - never trust any human claiming to come in Jesus' name who wants you to call them "Honorable" or "Reverend" or "Father". Jesus clearly said not to take on titles like that. If the person writing their sixty-one page thesis on hell can't even understand Jesus' clear direction on that matter, then they certainly aren't qualified to teach anything else about God or Christ or the Bible.

Matthew 23:1-10

"Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples, saying: “The scribes and the Pharisees have seated themselves in the seat of Moses

...All the works they do, they do to be seen by men, for they broaden the scripture-containing cases that they wear as safeguards and lengthen the fringes of their garments. They like the most prominent place at evening meals and the front seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces and to be called Rabbi by men.

...But you, do not you be called Rabbi, for one is your Teacher, and all of you are brothers. Moreover, do not call anyone your father on earth, for one is your Father, the heavenly One. Neither be called leaders, for your Leader is one, the Christ."

Yeah, because "hell" or "heller" in the Bible is "the grave" and refers to the condition of being dead. "There is no work nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom in the Grave, where you are going." (Ecclesiastes 9:10)

So people in "hell" or "Hades" or "the grave" are just asleep, and they can't warn anybody about anything.

The illustrations in Revelation and the gospels about the recycle bin and the trash dump are figurative.

If I dispose of something in the recycle bin, I can perhaps get it back.

If I dispose of something in the incinerator at the trash dump, not so much.

When Jesus disposes of the hypocritical religious institutions, those who are clergy/leaders in those institutions will weep and gnash their teeth because the means of their prominence/financial gain will be gone. It'll be "like hell" for them, in the "extremely difficult experience" sense of the word.

Ecclesiastes 9:5 -"the dead know nothing at all"

by aqwsed12345 in

the narrator of the book of ecclesiastes had very little knowledge of many things that jesus and his apostles later preached.

the author does not make statements, but only wonders (thinks, observes, often raises questions, and leaves them open).

he looked at the world based on the law of moses and found nothing but vanity, as the earthly reward promised in the law did not always accompany good deeds and earthly punishment for evil deeds.

Right, that's why when Jesus said "Lazarus our friend has gone to sleep, but I am going there to awaken him..." and then "Jesus said plainly, "Lazarus has died," his words jive with what is written in Ecclesiastes 9:5.

Lazarus didn't say, "Aw, Jesus, why did you bring me back from heaven!" or "Yikes! Thanks, Jesus for bringing me back from that awful hell place!"

The only time in the scriptures anybody talks like that is when apostate King Saul went to visit the witch of Endor..."Then “Samuel” said to Saul: “Why have you disturbed me by having me brought up?”"

The "doctrine" of "life in hell" is not based on the Bible, either in the Old Testament or the New Testament.

Life can be hell. But neither Jesus nor God would ever keep someone alive for all eternity in a torture chamber. "God is Love."

Jesus' language was extravagant? Really?

by BoogerMan in

w80 10/1 p. 25 after these “last days” god’s messianic kingdom!

- "when speaking of those final days of the jewish system of things, jesus said: “then there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again.” reportedly, there were 97,000 jews inside jerusalem that survived the siege and desolation of their holy city and its temple built by king herod.

however, these were not the “chosen ones” on whose account that “great tribulation” was shortened.

EasyPrompt

The Flood of Noah's day touched every corner of the earth.

The visions of Revelation included prophecies that talk about every nation, language, etc, also about how the "great city" has sway over all kings of the earth.

Revelation was written after the tribulation in Jerusalem.

The future tribulation will be just as extensive as the Flood of Noah's day.

"Perhaps the JW's view of the G.T. isn't as bad as they make it out to be/want it to be."

It isn't the "JW's view" that matters. It's what the Christ tells us that counts.

The disciples fell asleep before.

"He returned to the disciples and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter: “Could you not so much as keep on the watch for one hour with me? Keep on the watch and pray continually, so that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit, of course, is eager, but the flesh is weak.""

Now is not the time to be sleeping.

"But know one thing: If the householder had known in what watch the thief was coming, he would have kept awake and not allowed his house to be broken into. On this account, you too prove yourselves ready, because the Son of man is coming at an hour that you do not think to be it."

Matthew 24:29-31

"Immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

Then the sign of the Son of man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will beat themselves in grief, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

And he will send out his angels with a great trumpet sound, and they will gather his chosen ones together from the four winds, from one extremity of the heavens to their other extremity."

Mark 13:24-27

"But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will be falling out of heaven, and the powers that are in the heavens will be shaken.

And then they will see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

And then he will send out the angels and will gather his chosen ones together from the four winds, from earth’s extremity to heaven’s extremity."

After the attack on Jerusalem, the Christians weren't gathered together - they were scattered. Nobody saw angels and nobody saw Jesus coming on the clouds with power and great glory.

The time of "great distress" hasn't happened yet. Everybody will know when it happens. No one will have to guess. It'll be so bad, people will think no Christians will survive. That's why Jesus said this in Matthew 24:

"Truly I say to you that this generation will by no means pass away until all these things happen. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away."

...and this in Mark 13...

"Truly I say to you that this generation will by no means pass away until all these things happen. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away."

The leaders of the religious institutions (like the "heavens") will pass-away/be-removed and the organizations/bodies of the religious institutions (like the "earth" of those organizations) will be dissolved, but the "generation" of Christians who see the tribulation begin will survive to the end of the tribulation, because the appointed times of the nations to attack/rule-as-UN-world-power during the tribulation is only 3 1/2 years, and Jesus will help us get through that "wilderness" time.

He wasn't saying the "this generation" thing as some kind of way to calculate a timeframe. He was saying it so people wouldn't be scared that they wouldn't survive the tribulation.

The trialsome time period will have a definite ending and a definite end.

"But as these things start to occur, stand up straight and lift up your heads, because your deliverance is getting near."

Hi again enoughisenough...

Jesus blood is poured out for anyone who is willing to take advantage of the ransom. But it is not necessary to partake of the emblems to be show faith in that blood, just like it wasn't necessary for Christians to be circumcised. It was difficult for Jewish Christians to realize that too.

Those who are raised up in the future resurrection during the 1000 year reign will not partake, and yet the blood is enough for them.

The purpose of the Lord's Evening Meal was to remind those of the 144,000 to keep awake until the Lord came to take them to their assignment. It's not like some kind of "golden ticket" or something. That's why the ritual will end when the marriage of the Lamb happens. Partaking of the wine and bread is a ritual, just like circumcision was a ritual, or the old Passover meal was a ritual. It was an expression of faith, but in and of itself it didn't save anyone.

Parts of Christendom have taught people for years that everybody needs to partake of the emblems, but that's not what the Bible teaches. Abraham was considered righteous by faith, and he wasn't even baptized.

There are two different covenants. Jehovah can't let a human "marry" a spirit creature. The first covenant is where Jehovah adopts the 144,000. By adopting the 144,000 and changing them into a new creation, the same kind as His son, Jehovah provides the legal basis to unite the two. Jesus himself makes the second covenant, the marriage covenant, with the 144,000. The covenant for the Kingdom is the marriage covenant. The marriage of the Lamb is when they are joined in the Kingdom, "taking home the bride". When anointed ones partake, they are just showing that they are aware that they are in that marriage covenant.

Those who will live on the earth don't have to be "changed" so they don't need those two covenants. The application of the ransom blood to them is poured out without their needing to partake of the wine/bread because they are not in the marriage covenant. They are automatically made part of that arrangement because Jesus took Adam's place. When he took Adam's place, he automatically inherited his kids and as their Eternal Father he now intercedes for them.

It doesn't bother me if somebody wants to partake or not partake. It's just not required for someone who is not in that specific covenant.
