They receive a ressurection like Christ's don't they?
Why don't their bodies dematerialize like Christ's did?
I've been out of JW land so long, I forget when does the 144,000 ressurection start?

this is an epiphany i had about 5 years ago that forever changed my attutude towards the bible, the god of the old testament (and new testament) and all religion in general.
esp since the borg hold him up as a hero of faithfulness and one of the great faithful men of old.
it was quite a jolt to my worldview when that realization hit me like a frikkin bus.. thoughts?.
So you're saying Samson was a Japenese Muslim Kamikaze ? BANZAI !!!!!!!!!!!
I always thought Samson was a suitcase ?
Holy Crap that was hard to read ! I counted 30 variations of "Great day" used, ayyye carumba
great day of Jehovah, God's great day, Jehovah's day, day of Jehovah
Is the day 6 billion people get annihilated great?
Jesus as the “Son of man”. I thought he was the son of Jehovah?
Interesting thought
Love for God and for our neighbor keeps us active as Christian ministers and thus helps to prepare us for the great day of Jehovah.
I thought it was the fear of becoming bird food !
In Paradise, resurrected ones will be able to fill in some gaps in our knowledge of the past.
I don't want to talk to Enoch. I want to talk to Chucky and da Judge. There's tons of rumors about them I would like to get settled.
ceramic veneers are all white, thin ceramic shells, which fit precisely onto the faces of prepared anterior teeth.
like bonding, veneers are used to cover up discoloration, cracks and chipping, and to change the shape or size of your teeth.
veneers outperform bonding with greater resilience and a greater resistance to stains and dulling.
I used to use verniers at work, but now I use dial calipers, they're easier to read.

Do other Christian religons teach "one third of the angels become demons "?

Every JW has 7 demons assigned to them. 7 x 7,000,000 = 49,000,000 demons.
No wonder it's so hard to get to the meetings !!

10 But he would not come alone, for Matthew 25:31 said that "all the angels" would be with him. How many might that be? Revelation
5:11 says: "I saw, and I heard a voice of many angels around the throne [of God] . . . and the number of them was myriads of
myriads." A myriad is 10,000. One myriad times one myriad is 10,000 times 10,000, a total of 100 million angels! Yet, Revelation
speaks in the plural, of "myriads of myriads" of angels serving God. That is hundreds of millions, perhaps billions or more. Under
Christ's direction, these spirit creatures are assisting God's representatives on earth in separating mankind into two groups, one for
"everlasting cutting-off," the other for "everlasting life."-Matthew 25:46; see also Matthew 13:41, 42.
Rev 178,179
The dragon has authority also in the spirit realm. With his tail, he "drags a third of the stars of heaven." Stars can represent angels.
(Job 38:7) Mention of "a third" would emphasize that a considerable number of angels have been misled by Satan. Once these came
under his control, there was no escape for them. They could not return to God's holy organization. They became demons, dragged
along, as it were, by Satan their king, or ruler. (Matthew 12:24) Satan also cast them down to the earth. This no doubt refers to Noah's
day before the Flood, when Satan induced the disobedient sons of God to go down to earth and cohabit with the daughters of men.
As a punishment, these "angels that sinned" have been thrown by God into the prisonlike condition called Tartarus.-Genesis 6:4; 2
Peter 2:4; Jude 6.
REV. 5 : 11
Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands,
and ten thousand times ten thousand. They encircled the throne and the living creatures and the elders.
10,000 x 10,000 = 100,000,000 million faithful angels
50,000,000 million demon angels is a third of 150,000,000 total angels .
At the bare minimum there are 50,000,000 million (+ 1 ) demon angels residing right here on earth.
Insight vol.1 612:
The purpose of all such demonic activity is to turn people against Jehovah and the pure worship of God.

Reports from around the world show that Satan and the demons are as malicious as ever. Some people they strike with illness.
Others they harass by robbing them of sleep or by giving them terrible dreams or by abusing them sexually. Still others they have
driven to insanity, murder, or suicide.
Satan has the rest of the world, don't you know, he doesn't need to bother with the worldly people.
That means there are 7 demons for every JW.
No wonder dubeeyas are under so much pressure, poor things.
question with boldness even the existence of a god; because if there be one he must approve of the homage of reason more than that of blindfolded fear.
Now who does this remind me of hmmm?
"Who controls the past controls the future.
Who controls the present controls the past."

i was just reading memphisbelle's account, and she mentions that the wt says that one is suppose to pray silently so satan wouldn't be able to mess up god's plans.
um, correct me if i am wrong, since i have never been, or will never be a jw....but what the heck kind of logic is this?!?
(especially if you read what the bible says about prayer.
I remember a sister telling me this, and I thought it was a crazy thing even then when I was a brain washed dubeeya.
Her logic was "don't pray to Jehovah out loud about your personal weaknesses, because Satan will hear them and concentrate on them".
Love to have references to where this all started.
