Sneekersays:
I've never made that claim.Sure you have, in certain ways, which you would never admit to or agree with.
Here, folks, is an example of what the JW "truth" has done for Yadirf. He's turned into someone who doesn't speak truth.I’ll repeat: “Ah the all-knowing Seeker of JW.com, he who claims to know the truth about most anything and everything.”

Seeker says:
Never trust any group that calls itself "Truth."Ah the all-knowing Seeker of JW.com, he who claims to know the truth about most anything and everything. Shall we take his advise and "never trust" what he says? Oh, that's right, he's only an individual, rather than "a group", that claims to "have The Truth".Any time a group says "we have The Truth" or "this newspaper is Truth", know that you are being fed a bunch of lies.

...when Jesus said "they["], its quite obvious to me hes talking about individuals....You're as clumsy and careless at presenting what the Bible actually says as you are in the use of quotation marks. For your information, Jesus never used the word "they" in that illustration.

Room 215
Strange, for all their bragging about being only genuine Christians on the globe, they've botched the two most fundamental tenets of Christianity; The Lord's Evening Meal and Baptism, in both cases vitiating their significance by superimposing onto them their specious sectarian dogma.Oh, so you've noticed a difference in the manner in which the WTS handles those two matters as contrasted with the way Christendom goes about it. That's real keen and observant of you. The fact is though that such "difference" is a proper difference. Yes, there are MANY differences between the WTS and Christendom ... but that's only partially what makes it "The Truth".

Maybe this Richard Roberts did have a demon, I dont know him.You gotta be joking again! You, a fellow Pentecostal with Richard Roberts -- the son of Oral Roberts -- "don't know" the man? That's hilarious! Where have you been? (Yadirf rolling on the floor laughing uncontrollably.)

Yardiff asked Christ follower "Which particular heaven do you figure you'll occupy?"They all (precisely 144,000) will be in the 4th Heaven (for the duration of precisely 1,000 years) -- where only Jehovah and Michael (Jesus) have lived for ages upon ages. They will literally be above the angels (who live in the 3rd Heaven), thereby in a position to judge those of them that had sinned in Noah's day by having taken on fleshly bodies in order to copulate with the daughters of men. -- 1 Corinthians 6:3.
And we can respond "Which particular heaven do you figure the Watchtower's 'anointed' will occupy?"

...any religion/cult/sect can use the same words that you're quoting [Matthew 13:24-30] to try to say that they're the only one true religion, and if they're not, who is then? You really don't see through that?So the fact is that you DON'T believe what Jesus said, because you deny what he said. You condemn yourself with your own tongue.

"Unlike the churches of Christendom unrepentant unfaithful "individuals" are expelled from the congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses." -- Yadirf.That's a outright untruth. Those "sincere questions" you refer to were accompanied with the desire to disturb the peace of the congregation, which is intolerable.Expelled at the whims of "men" for sincere questions about these teachings of "men"? Judge not lest ye be judged. -- Will Power.
Are you putting all bets on the flesh?There will in fact be those ones that "go to heaven", for a purpose. When that purpose is accomplished then they will return to earth. Absolutely no earthling was ever intended to permanently change form and location, the same being true of the angels (they're being punished for that very thing, remember? Tartarus?). Had Adam remained obedient to God's instructions the need would never have arisen for any from among mankind to "go to heaven". That fact itself should make you *think*.

cornish
Thr illustration of the wheat and the weeds has absolutely nothing to do with true and false religions,Remember that the weeds were intersown amongst the weeds,so it was an illustration pertaining to individuals not religious groups,if Jesus was reffering to groups then he would have given an illustration of a corner or part of the field with wheat alone.I knew that eventually someone here would present the argument you just have, which is in reality no argument at all.
The thing that you're failing to take into consideration is the fact that ALL "individuals" who are *true* Christians find themselves collected together in what is called a congregation (a "religious group"), while at the same time refusing to congregate/associate with false Christians. Unlike the churches of Christendom, unrepentant unfaithful "individuals" are expelled from the congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses. So, contrary to the way you would like for it to be, the "wheat" will all be found in a "group". And the same is true of the "weeds" of Jesus' illustration too, in that such ones ALL find a comfortable "Church Home" within Christendom's places of "worship", as part of a "group", and have hardly no worries at all of ever getting "disfellowshipped".
