What is the benefit of God's Kingdom?

by Half banana in

what is the benefit of god's kingdom?.

the watchtower said when it started out in 1879 that god's kingdom had already arrived in heaven in 1874 and that its work would be complete by 1914. .

with heroic slogans of "destroying the kings of the earth" and "all enemies of christ the king" etc by 1914, "god fearing" humankind was to have been restored to prelapsarian innocence and the earth to a global edenic paradise.

From a theological perspective date setting as which the WTS/JWS leaders have done is an act unloyal apostasy for Jesus himself admonished his followers when on earth of doing just that, saying how dare you set a time upon god's own sacred time.

But selling the new Kingdom order as coming soon was a viable propagation for selling literature to the masses and those who believed in the bible.

They were essentially modern day false prophets active in sin.

The WTS has been selling a tainted commercialized version of the Gospel of Jesus for over 140 years.

Will you attend the Memorial 2020 ? - Covid-19 (Coronavirus)

by bats in the belfry in

... or rather listen to the advice on their jw news website:.

show love to others.

while we all know the importance of attending christian meetings and participating in the public ministry, if you are sick, it is best to stay home to avoid infecting others.

Finkelstein

I wouldn't attend the JWS memorial in spite of the Corona virus , for its a wrongly devised and practice of taking the emblems which represent the body and blood of Jesus Christ.

All of his faithful followers are to partake as " his instructions " and its gods decision among these who are to become the anointed, not an individual's choice or decision.

Finkelstein

The only thing the JWS have accomplished in doing is fulfilling the scriptural identity of being false prophets by preaching a tainted commercialized version of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, thereby making themselves sinning apostates in the eyes of god.

1 John 4:1 .......

4 Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Samson and Delilah...A Hollywood movie written in Bible times

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

written and produced by bible writers...you can't make this up!.

who needs hollywood scriptwriters when you already have a bible story that has drama, suspense, and unbelievable twists and turns?

imagine the story of a man who visits prostitutes, kills a 1,000 man army with a skull bone, kills a lion with his bare hands, loses his strength by getting a haircut, gets his eyes gouged out, works at a grain mill and tears down columns with his bare hands, killing himself and the philistines!

Yes the ancients such as the Hebrews were quite the dramatic fictional story tellers.

No wonder why there has been so many movies made out these stories.

Jehovah's Witnesses DENY the Physical Bodily resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ

by JW Answers in

the jehovah's witnesses are taught by their organisation that christ's body was disposed by jehovah god, they deny the physical bodily resurrection and explain that he rose again as a spirit creature.

as we take into account what the watchtower teach, i explain from the bible that christ rose again from the grave in his body, and showing forth that the jehovah's witnesses are in error.

A firm belief in something without any evidence is a human folly because you avoid yourself from reality.

There is no qestion that the Jesus god touched the hearts of many by virtue of what this god was going to do for humanity but the stark reality is that this god like so many gods created by the ancients was drawn out as appealing imagination and wanting desire, you can verify that by the actual scriptural writings of this god in the bible.

This god was without qestion the most humanistic of gods ever imagined by man that was empathetic and compassionate to the perilous human condition.

Unfortunately human emotions combined with imagination doesn't equate to reality of the accepted known derived from "HONEST" practical evidence.

Judaeo Christian religious practices may have actually come from ancient Egyptian religoius beliefs and practices

by Finkelstein in

under close investigation of ancient middle eastern civilizations and their religoius beliefs and practices, there appears to be a connecting commonality derived from astronomical mythological beliefs.

.

as shown through the documentary zeitgeist it would appear that these ancient civilizations plagiarized mythological beliefs from an original source to use for their own individual means and purpose, the ancient egyptian mythological practices being the originating source.. the documentary zeitgeist brings forth some interesting thoughts.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9ywr5tcjae.

You dont have to in this day and age Joen

but you might have to if you were born in the time of these ancient civilizations.

ie. questioning the High priests of the ancient Israelites could get you stoned to death for apostasy.

Your right Phizzy the ancients such as the Israelites took mythological stories from other ancient civilizations and used them for themselves and disturbingly you could be pointed out as an evil apostate if you were to qestion these stories .

The ending endeavor was to create and place the power of the gods into men's hands toward the means of socially controlling people .

The JWS religion as it was formulated is another example of this.
