263What Name Does the New Testament Emphasize - Jehovah or Jesus?
by Vanderhoven7 init seems to me scripturally speaking, that jehovah's witnesses are emphasizing the wrong name.. it should be jesus, not jehovah.
who is the way, the truth and the life?
(john 14:6).

can someone explain why a 'Y", oh my, is in the hebrew writing of the divine name, if hebrew only had consonants in writing? "Y" , or ypsylon is a pronounced vowel in many languages, not a substitute for a "J". Is this a quirk of the english translations only?
I see the Son and/or Father issue resolved when you see a 3D relief of J letters, superimposed on each other, like in an ornamented antique bible, one clear J on a bigger basic J.

My Prediction Regarding New Space Telescope That Will See Back to 100 Million Years From the Big Bang
by Sea Breeze ina new space telescope launched a few days age that will supposedly be able to see to within 100 million years of the big bang.
wow... only 100 million years from the big bang.
that is pretty early given the 12 billion year age of the universe assigned by scholars who adhere to naturalism.

Dark matter/energy (you must know that those are the same by now) has been observed, it is what causes gravitational lensing. The problem is that we don’t know what dark matter/energy is made out of, because there is none near any traditional matter that we are used to.
AM not so, even ordinary mass' gravity has most influence only outside its "surface" , dark matter is not a halo but also inside an entity. (There is no gravity inside a hollow sphere, at the center of the earth, or a black hole, or inside dark matter.)
dark energy might be the eternal, all pervading energy that "appears" inside, as the universe expands into the future.

Dark Matter was to make the BB Theory feasible, but it has never been observed. There is not one shred of scientific evidence that it exists
not so, the dark matter hypothesis was invented initially to account for the high orbital velocity in the router reaches of galaxies. (could be a misunderstanding of the gravity equations too) and
S.B. 100 million years from Big Beginning? fancy this, 400 000 years!
250 times farther back.

New Light, New Light!
by BoogerMan inmore accurately known as a reversal of a long held 'truth.'.
september 2022 study watchtower - par.
14 p. 18 - "in the past, we understood jesus’ words to refer to the deeds the resurrected ones will practice after their resurrection; that is, some will come to life and practice good things while others will come to life and practice vile things.

Imagine though, the Father, or the Son having all the ugly traits of sinners in their memory so as to resurrect them as the same person, in order that way they will not get away scot free for past misdeeds.

Are Christians Promised Heaven or Earth?
by BoogerMan injw's share a belief which most christian denominations teach - heaven awaits!
(matthew 20:28) ...the son of man came...to give his life as a ransom in exchange for many.”.
what does a 'ransom' normally achieve?.

wt doctrine is, that the "anointed" get the right to everlasting life through partaking, and they then sacrifice that acquired right, as Jesus did, to aspire to immortality in heaven.
which begs the question, if the anointed partakers get the right to everlasting life on earth, why does wt not allow those that do not want to go to heaven pastake, to get at least a crack at the basic ransom offering? ? After all, Jesus served the emblems to those with an earthly kingdom hope?
Jesus: " you will be with me in Paradise" , even without prior partaking. just for a few moments of countable "service time".
Everlasting life on Earth is impossible, the planet and its furnace is half finished. so:
make that a temporary paradise on this planet. aka heaven on Earth, or paradise in heaven.

According to Jehovah's Witnesses, who will be saved?
by Vanderhoven7 ini know who won't be saved according to witnesses and that includes just about everyone alive at armageddon who is not a jehovah’s witness.
.
others who are permanently lost include adam and eve, those who died in the flood, people of sodom and gomorrah and apostates to their one true religion..

what if this whole salvation/ not dying idea is a misreading of the purpose of life in the universe?
Dying , particularly late in life is good for the species, striving for betterment, progress.
fertile seniors have pushed our species into longevity, methuselah of old fantasies notwithstanding.
God Believer:
nor verbal abusers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God. Such were some of you; but you were washed,
These past "personality traits" were abandoned changed, finished. not just swept under the carpet by the ransom. about the danger of them to recur in a dedicated christian, it mentions that it would amount to sacrificing the Christ anew.
The ransom is not the carefree cover all that some make it out to be, not saved no matter what.

THE GIST: Once the work was finished, the Good Christians came, took the printed material, and never showed again.From the obituary:
"-- Als alles fertig war, kamen die guten Christen, nahmen das Material, sagten, sie würden später zahlen und meldeten sich nie wieder.Davon erholte sich die Siebdruckerei nie mehr richtig."
Dieter und Heidi verkauften das Haus und richteten eine neue, kleinere Druckerei
The printery never recovered (from the loss), D&H had to sell the house and started a new, smaller printry.
