jehovah's witnesses believe that god sent humans to write the bible because his servants can relate better to humans since they are humans.
i heard that at a meeting two weeks ago.
it does not make sense to me at all but i do not know how to explain it.
Why: So the believer could guess about Gods will!
So believers can cherry pick it to suit themselves!!
Moses broke God's written words by his own hands, so God said screw you. I will send my words to different prophets over time, some will be lunatics and others will be bat sh--t crazy.
So it will be up to you to figure out my word. Have fun!!!!!
69-110 billion, 90% of the people who've ever lived are dead.
that's a lot of folks to be resurrected.
take away we who are apostates (a million or two) that still leave 67-110 billion.. raining down manna from heaven will not cut the mustard for 100 billion people, there is not much you can do with manna, manna bread, manna tacos, manna soup and manna sweet cakes.. there is not enough resources to to house and feed 100 billion people, 7-8 billion today.. i'am not a economist or mathematician but the resurrection will create a whole set of new problems for mankind.. it becomes a bigger problem when you figure in those folks the lived before adam that the bible forgot to mention..
The Way to Paradise (1924) page 209.. No BS folks. From the words of the Prophet
To be liberal and count 40 billion people, Texas is said to have an area of 262,398 square miles, which less then 3,498 sq. miles of water surface, would leave 258,900 sq. miles of land surface. Each sq. mile has 640 acres. Each acre has 43,560 sq. feet, or over 13 feet sq. Each person would have room enough for a table all to himself and for waiters to serve him..(I'am serious folks).
And then we have this::Will there be enough to eat? Answer Ezekiel 34:27 and 36:29,30
But another question will occur to some. If there is no change in the grave, will not all those who died as rascals and bad characters come back the same, and how will Christ or GB be able to control them? Isaiah 26;9 gives the answer.
Sometimes it is well to take an emetic before one can enjoy a meal. So the Lord has provided some such emetics for canes of willful indigestion. They will then be in conditioned to eat...
So there you go, right from the mouth of the WT...

crazyguy, It seemed to me also it was a high number but most sources agree, 68-110 billion.
If these figures are correct and if by chance the borg is right, (1 out of trillion) this is my theory..
Those who will be resurrected will be greeted by the GB. The GB will inform them that they own their second chance in life to them (GB) and Jehovah. The resurrected ones will be so grateful they will do anything the GB will tell them.
So those new homes that are still standing after God set ablaze everyone except JW's, that's how they will rebuild. They will have slaves, millions of slaves for each JW. That's why the resurrected one will not be able to marry and have kids.
They will be working their asses off for the GB.
Yes the GB will be sitting on their throne with billions of people kissing their rear.

galaxie:I think my faith is the size of a mustard seed. LOL
notsurewheretogo: They missed the mark on that one, 20 billion.

Raining down manna from heaven will not cut the mustard for 100 billion people, there is not much you can do with manna, manna bread, manna tacos, manna soup and manna sweet cakes.
There is not enough resources to to house and feed 100 billion people, 7-8 billion today.
I'am not a economist or mathematician but the resurrection will create a whole set of new problems for mankind.
It becomes a bigger problem when you figure in those folks the lived before Adam that the Bible forgot to mention.
i have protestants, jw's and mormons praying for my soul, (think you very much).. what do you say when you are told that??
i am so much better since i left the borg, physically, mentally and financially.
but just in case the protestants(jesus) are right or the mormons or maybe jw, if i meet my maker i will tell him or her i plea insanity.. my deity, i knew not who's prayers was being answers on my behalf, my eyes were open but didn't know where it came from.
have you ever heard a JW Elder pray for starving children in the world from
the platform. The only prayers I can recall"we pray for our brothers and
sisters". I guess they figure it's Jehovah's will that all others suffer, if they
are not a JW...I guess it wouldn't make sense too pray for the suffering
of the little ones when you are looking forward to the massacre of billions, that
would be counterproductive.

James T "egoistic insanity" good one.
stan:you may get a charity collection can upside your head. Have you
ever offered a meal instead of cash to folks with signs along the freeways.
steve2: WOW, I have to try that next time "Get down on your knees right
now and pray, pray, pray-and don't stop until the desired result is forthcoming"'
I like that.

I guess I feel the same when a adult ask me, what did Santa bring
you this year. Yes I thank them for their thoughts, I realize that
is something precious to them....

My Deity, I knew not who's prayers was being answers on my behalf, my eyes were open but didn't know where it came from. My JW daughter told me she prayed on my behalf, so did my Protestants family members and my Mormon daughter-in law.
You can see it was very confusing. So I didn't know who to give thanks to, so I figured I would think you personally.
You think this might work???? Just in case.
