Again the Jews are great when they agree with you, apostates who missed their messiah when they don’t.

Where their worm dieth not, and the fire-is not quenched. Revelation 21:8 But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the...

Where their worm dieth not, and the fire-is not quenched.

I knew you would quote the segment about destruction but I quoted more material from a different source that says otherwise, I don’t care anything about what the Talmud says that was just part of the Brittanica article . Funny you say the same thing about the Jews I said when you were quoting...

Isaiah 43:10 doesn’t say Jehovah’s Witnesses Isa 43:10 - “You are My witnesses,” declares the LORD, “And My servant whom I have chosen, So that you may know and believe Me And understand that I am He. Before Me there was no God formed, And there will be none after Me. —-And I am not mistaken...

What do you do with this passage? Mar 9:43 - And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, intothe fire that never shall be quenched: Mar 9:44 - Where their worm dieth not, and the fireis not quenched. Mar 9:45 -...

https://www.britannica.com/topic/Gehenna. Gehenna, also called Gehinnom, abode of the damned in the afterlife in Jewish and Christian eschatology (the doctrine of last things). Named in the New Testament in Greek form (from the Hebrew Ge Hinnom, meaning “valley of Hinnom”), Gehenna originally...

Mar 9:43 - And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: Mar 9:44 - Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. Mar 9:45 - And if thy foot offend thee, cut...

Okay I don’t mean to be insulting or disrespectful I just disagree.

I think in this case you do what you are accusing Christendom of doing. Revelation details these are 12,000 from each of the 12 tribes. Calling 144,000 Jews Jehovah’s Witnesses is kind of like calling red blue. I don’t know of any other religion that makes such a claim (though I wouldn’t be...

Oh do I have that wrong? I thought JWs teach 144,000 have the Heavenly Hope and the great multitude have the earthly hope. In other words only 144,000 are going to Heaven. I’m not an expert on JWs though I could be wrong.

I think Paul wrote Hebrews too though it’s not specified. We agree on something.

JWs have the strangest interpretation of the 144,000 that the Bible tells us are Jewish descendants of the 12 tribes. I don’t see how you reach the conclusion from scripture that they are all the people who have the heavenly hope.

He didn’t say anything about the Heavenly calling. You added that. The phrase Heavenly calling appears one time in the Bible in a letter to the Hebrews.

You believe that the discovery of older and “better “ manuscripts has led to better translations of the Bible. If that’s the case why do the modern translations say the same thing? People who are dedicated to modern textual criticism and claim to have the translations that are closest to the...

That is what JWs believe. It will do no good to argue with you that is what you have accepted.

In cases where the vast majority of translations agree how was there this conspiracy and so many diverse people in agreement to change the word of God? Is it more likely the vast majority have it wrong or the person who disagrees so that their interpretation lines up with their beliefs?

I doubt you saw my conversation with @Aunty Jane but about the scripture you quoted 1Th 4:17 - Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.- Why do those who are alive meet the Lord...

Fair enough. I apologize @Aunty Jane . You just don’t agree with the translators in many cases, not that you don’t respect the Bible. @Wrangler you’re good at pointing out when others are not fair but I think @Aunty Jane has you on ignore because of some of your posts. Just saying, maybe take...

Phl 1:21 - For to me to live-is Christ, and to die is gain. Phl 1:22 - But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not. Phl 1:23 - For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better: @Aunty...
