I love the double standards of the Watchtower. But that's EXACTLY what happens to a Jehovah's Witness if they decide that their worship is "unacceptable". They are forced to choose between unacceptable beliefs and family. If you leave, say goodbye to family and friends.

I've been witnessing to Witnesses for 35 years. Usually only those already questioning willlusten and dialogs. But those like Kiew are too brainwashed to see the Truth. Others like Aunty Jane have too many years invested for them to walk away.

I have all the publications, I can prove what they say they didn't say :wink:

And you probably won't. They no longer engage with me, preferring to ignore my posts and comments. So I'll just keep posting and commenting. They accuse me of having an agenda, as if they don’t. I mean after all, why are they here? Why is anyone here?

The HOW is in the instructions, so why not enlighten me as to the HOW

Well, I never said "all will automatically be saved." I do believe ALL will be given the opportunity to be saved. Well, if they're dead, why bother to raise them only to put them back in the grave or if you're a proponent of hellfire and brimstone, to torture them for all eternity? Which begs...

They are the same words, meaning a limited time, but they do not refer to the same thing. Rev 6:11 speaks of the death and resurrection of the Church. Rev 20:3 speaks of the time between Satan is let loose to deceive the nations.

Not WHO, but HOW?

"For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.” - Matthew 18:20 That's the church, not some guy in a robe or wearing a collar, not in some fancy building with a steeple or a cross on the door, but the people. Individuals are the church. Yeah, like...

You're starting to sound like a parrot "Big Boy". So until you show me scripture and reason, our conversation is over.

And still no scriptures to support your views, just human reasoning.
