    Stude 138 this week is about Jesus ruling; seen standing in heaven, sitting at the right hand, standing up for his people, sitting down again for judgement, riding ---but the portion, what he is actually biblical doing right now, Col. 1:13 was never read or discussed. even the whole section of the book's article was not read!

    next month jws are covering the land with their kingdom of 1914 and soon Panda Paradise saga, but will deaden into silence the ~ 2000 year old real possible kingdom of --- love.

    was the whole chapter 138 read in your zoom room? was The kingdom of the son's love even mentioned, or discussed? bsw:

    remember the resolutions at assembles, The kingdom news campaigns 1-13?

    all fizzelt, did not stir heavens into action. come November, will the higher/st powers jump on the wt bandwagon? ?

    Very good point. Ever since the Ascension, Christ had a Kingdom with saints living in it. Colossians 1:13. The new heavens and earth

    Ever since the Ascension,

    JB: and still going strong, uninterrrupted by the fictional 1914 pre-millenium rule.

    Christ certainly does not seem to rule the soon 10 billions outside the " true christian congregation"

    Waton,

    True, Christ reigned from that Matt 28:18. His kingdom is within us Luke 17:21. The restorationists like Russell would ask well what about all the evil church history, does that not nullify his kingdom. We can answer the meditorial reign goes on while men also rule. It was not postponed to 1914 or yet future.

    The restorationists like Russell

    JB: even the disciples were restorationists, To their query in Acts 1:7, Jesus did not even dignify that with an answer. But he left us, even Einstein, research into the nature of time, that the father has put in his exclusive jurisdiction)

    Waton,

    It was quite understandable that they were focused on the restoration of their Jewish kingdom. That this was also the great gentile hope is however an invention of Russell and other restorationists. Notice in the same book Acts 28:28 salvation had been send to the gentiles. Will God restore earthly Israel? Well a minority of Preterists believe that. In Universalism, the restoration of earthly Israel is sort of the icing on the cake. However in Russellism, the salvation of earthly Israel is linked to the ultimate salvation of the bulk of gentiles. I dont see that

    JB, wt writers are the ultimate restorationists, wanting to recreate the pre-talking snake condition, no fig leafs at all. . No wonder they want to sweep Co. 1;13 under the carpet. it would be terrible if the human race lifted itself beyond the rustic rural realm.

    Waton,

    Yes it is the heritage from Russell. Adam is turned into a perfect all knowing man, he blew it on behalf of all of us and so we all get a chance of returning to his pre fall stand, except the ones who will be like God and (Rutherford's addition) those who did not want to remain or become JWs.
