Resurrection date and parousia questions
by jonathan dough in1) do the jws still believe that the first resurrection of the 144,000 began in 1918 or did they change that?.
2) do they still believe that jesus is present, the parousia is upon us and that he 'returned' invisibly in 1914 or has that also changed?.

So how do the "remnant" die?
by bob1999 inaccording to the "new" light of the wts some of the "remant" will still be alive when armageddon breaks out.. on page 352 of the book "you may survive armegeddon onto god's new world" it says that the remnant has to die so they can be resurrected with a "sprirual body".. .
this sounds like yet another doctrinal discrepancy to me.. .
peace.

what time scale do they have left?
by highdose injust reading about a 89 year old man from ohio whos just gone on trial for being a nazi as a young man.
if that generation and the gb is in their 80's- 90's then they really can't have more than 20 years left in them?
how are they going to keep the fiction going about "the geneation" etc if they have all died out?.

Intellects do not believe in God
by garyneal inon our trip back home from the thanksgiving holiday spent at our home town my wife labeled me an intellect.
normally, i would've been flattered with the title but when she called me that she was referencing the bible verse matthew 11:25. this offended me to say the least.. she said that it was hard for people like me to have faith in something because i will always investigate it and make sure of it.
for example, if someone told me that the grass was green, she said i would not believe them and research grass and the color green to ensure that it really was.. i told her that this was absurd and that i see no reason to research whether or not the grass was green when i can see with my own eyes what color it is.

jesus' time on the earth
by ssn587 inwas thinking about this for a bit, if a day to yahweh is a 1000 years, then what jesus actually gave up to come down here with mankind was about 40 minutes, so whats the big deal, we all have done things we don't like for 40 minutes.
so just how big a sacrifice was it for someone who knows his typical day is a 1000 years to spend 40 minutes being pushed around?.

The seventy 'heptads'
by Doug Mason inlars,.
i was going to post this at another thread, but i did not want to have it hijacked.. you incorrectly assume that the 70 'heptads' were in some way related to jesus christ (yeshua ben yosef) of nazareth.
this was a 2nd century ce invention.. i can understand why you seek to relate cyrus' decree to the start of this period, since ezra 7 is irrelevant, but you have cramped your thinking by assuming that the 70 'heptads' are in some way related to the earthly ministry of jesus christ.. doug.
