How do believers defend a god who is going to murder billions and pin it on them?

they will not be mourned or gathered up or buried, but will be like dung lying on the ground.

WHy Have You Turned YOur Back On The Messiah
by cassuk11 inok so you got out of the watchtower society after discerning it was false.
what is amazing is how many have turned their back on the king or was it they had no faith in the first place and the spiritual food they received did not help them stand upon a rock.
jesus the christ your saviour is a living breathing being with emotions.

'' Jesus the Christ your saviour is a living breathing being with emotions.''
Does he live on somewhere with a breathable atmosphere or just the vacuum of space?
''He has nothing to do wiht religion.''
Neither do I.
''Check out my youtube channel there are over 200 videos many of them about the KIngdom which is here now cannot be seen and not made by human hands.''
I've got thousands of Youtube videos with stuff on them that cannot be seen.
''Peace adn Love''
Not from me.

''What Did Jesus Ask US To Preach About?''
Nobody going by the name of Jesus has ever asked me to preach about anything.
If I was to guess though, I would say it was whatever 'Perry' says it was.

there have been a lot of wrong intentions, but each time, they have corrected and gone ahead..more refined..
Yes, it's great when they do that isn't it.
It does get a bit confusing sometimes though don't you think.
Sometimes I don't know what I believe today as opposed to what I used to believe yesterday or what I may have to believe tomorrow.

''still trying to figure out what "duty to god" required them to stonewall police and protect a child abuser from receiving justice?''
Me too. This is the bit that gets me.
There are, have been, and always will be, 'evil' people in all walks of life who will take advantage of and sexually abuse children.
However, there is no need for 'good' people, assuming the three elders were 'good', to put 'duty to god' above the need to report and help local police authorities with their efforts to stop people abusing children.

Are JWs creationists?
by Jeffro inif you believe what is officially stated on the jw website, jws are not creationists.
.
the fact that the exact jw belief is in fact specifically called "day-age creationism" seems to have alluded them.

''Yeah, I guess '7 literal days for creation' is ridiculous, but 'humans have only existed for 6000 years' is 'true science'. ''
And all living things were vegetarian less than 4,500 years ago is also true science.

A Jehovah's Witness who sexually abused a child and then had his wrongdoing covered up by the church has been jailed for 13 years.
Gordon Leighton, 53, admitted sexually abusing a child when he was confronted with the allegations by church elders at Washington, Tyne and Wear.
The elders knew about the 53-year-old's admissions for three years but refused to co-operate with the criminal investigation, and said what they had heard was confidential.
Leighton hit the headlines in the 1990s when his wife Yvonne, 28, died after refusing a blood transfusion after childbirth on religious grounds.Judge Penny Moreland said that he had subjected his victim to 'untold damage' as she sentenced him at Newcastle Crown Court today.
The judge said: 'You manipulated her with a combination of affection and attention and violence and threats.'The defendant was found guilty of two charges of indecency with a child and six of indecent assault after a trial. Prosecutor Katherine Dunn told the court it was in 2009 the victim, who is now an adult, broke her silence about what Leighton had done to her.
The court heard that at a special meeting at Lambton Kingdom Hall aimed at 'keeping the congregation clean', Leighton 'admitted sexual abuse' and made excuses for his vile behaviour.
Miss Dunn said: 'The elders conducted their own investigation. A meeting was arranged and the defendant was confronted with the allegations.'
After initially denying the allegations he broke down and admitted sexually abusing the complainant. The court heard Leighton, of Washington, refused to answer any questions when interviewed by detectives and claimed his confession at the meeting was limited to reading pornographic material.
Throughout the six-day trial Leighton, a Jehovah's Witness ministerial servant, denied all the allegations against him and denied he had confessed to the elders.
Leighton, who has since been expelled from the church, had also denied unrelated assault charges of child cruelty, grievous bodily harm and actual bodily harm, which he was found guilty of.
Judge Penny Moreland gave Leighton 13 years behind bars when he appeared before Newcastle Crown Court today
Throughout the criminal investigation, church elders Simon Preyser, Harry Logan and David Scott refused to make statements about Leighton's confession, keeping their stance when the case was brought before Newcastle Crown Court.
Each was then issued a witness summons which they launched a court battle against, but they were ordered to testify by Judge Penny Moreland after months of legal wrangling.
Their barrister Richard Daniels said the men had a 'duty to God' not to breach confidence.
Leighton was also given a sexual offences prevention order and was ordered to sign the sex offenders' register for life.

Oubliette said,
''Look carefully at the picture below and answer: How many generations do you see?
Say the first thing that comes to mind. ''
Just going off the point abit but remember that if that picture was taken in 1914 then Jesus meant a child that isn't even on the picture but will be born some time in the future whose life will overlap with the baby shown.
