In your dreams :rolleyes: Looking for nothing ... Waiting and praying for the Kingdom to come. Matt. 6:9 You must pray, then, this way: “‘Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified. 10 Let your Kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also on earth." You should do the...

Did you realize that the fact that Jesus hands over the kingdom to his Father means that the Thousand Years will be over? 1 Cor. 3:23 (...) you belong to Christ; Christ, in turn, belongs to God. Just visualize the events that the Scriptures describe for the future and you will see the whole...

Paul said that "the saints will judge the world" in 1 Cor. 6:2. The Greek word we translate "world" in that text is κόσμος. Now notice these other inspired words of Paul: Heb. 2:5 For it is not to angels that he has subjected the inhabited earth to come, about which we are speaking. Can you...

If you have been aware of the topics that talk about the future of the planet, the kingdom of Christ and the Millennium, the first resurrection, and other topics in this subforum, you will have already understood that the Bible teaches that the brothers of Christ, that the Scriptures called many...

Jehovah's Witnesses go very deep in our study of the inspired Scriptures, because they help us correctly understand the truth on many matters. That is the reason why God has blessed us with his holy spirit, and he has sent us to teach the world (Rom. 10:13-15). Perhaps in your study of the...

The Scriptures talk more than once of the "Thousands Years" of the Kingdom of Jesus upon the Earth. A true believer is not looking at theological sides to support one of them and reject the others... A true believer checks with the Scriptures for himself if what he is being taught is supported...

It doesn't matter how many virtual "kingdoms" believers like you project... In real life, you don't reign anywhere, and if you were, well, how badly are you doing it, because you haven't solved any world problem but that Christendom with all its sects is actually a problem for the world, getting...

Paul said that "the holy ones will judge the world" in 1 Cor. 6:2. The Greek word we translate "world" in that text is κόσμος. Now notice these other inspired words of Paul: Heb. 2:5 For it is not to angels that he has subjected the inhabited earth to come, about which we are speaking. Can you...

One first question to start thinking rationally about the topic: The dead that will come out of their graves according to Jesus here: John 5:28 Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice 29 and come out, those who did good...

So, you don't believe that the Kingdom of God will do anything for the planet and humanity here? :( Where do you think the general resurrection of the dead will occur? Do you believe what you read, or maybe you do think that we, JWs, wrote these passages? Rev. 21:3 With that I heard a loud...

One idea that heavily influences some believers' interpretation of passages that refer to the future is the idea that planet earth will be destroyed by Jesus when he comes to judge this human system of things that is being run by Satan and his spirits. BUT: Does the Bible really say that the...

Comparing the Biblical hope of the Kingdom of God that we JWs have with the hope of the human Messiah of the Jews is ridiculous. Start by thinking through what you say about that, and then I'll get serious about the rest of your posts.

Jesus knew, and told his disciples, that "the lesser person in the kingdom of heaven would be greater than John the Baptist". Matt. 11:11 Truly I say to you, among those born of women, there has not been raised up anyone greater than John the Baptist, but a lesser person in the Kingdom of the...

Some associated with Christians in the first century dared to spread the lie that the resurrection had already happened: 2 Tim. 2:16 But shun empty speeches that violate what is holy; for they will advance to more and more ungodliness, 17 and their word will spread like gangrene. Hy·me·naeʹus...

:) :rolleyes: You're kind of contradicting yourself and saying at the end the same we JWs believe. Organize your thoughts before posting... We JWs are not competing with you or anyone else, but rather sharing Biblical truths with others. If you believe that the Kingdom of God is already...

In the Bible the expression "the last day" is used to refer to the Millennium, during which the dead who do not belong to the heavenly "kings and priests" will be returned to life on earth: John 6:39 This is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose none out of all those whom he has given...

The Millennium of which we are given information in Rev. 20, is AS REAL as real are ALL EVENTS that are related to that period: 1) the great tribulation: a period that includes a brief time of suffering on humanity and that ends in the destruction of all the governments of the world at...

Jesus said that "the mild-tempered will inherit the earth" in Matt. 5:5. Since there are millions of mild-tempered persons on earth right now, and Jesus is talking about some future event, what did he mean with Matt.5:5? He meant that in the Kingdom of God there won't be any wicked person, so...

Only in the imagination of some people ... Come back to reality, please. This is what the Kingdom of God will do when it will be established on earth: Dan. 2:44 In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. And this kingdom will not be passed...

That is truth. But since he taught me to pray to the Father: "Let your Kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also on earth." (Matt. 6:10) ... I believe God has a purpose to earth and its inhabitants. You don't understand what Jesus is saying there. Matt. 5:5 Happy are the...
