thats ok, you have to make the determination yourself. I did that and im convinced that the WT have it right but of course you need to examine what i say in light of scripture which is why i always provide references

that year is a marked year in bible chronology as the 'end of the gentile times' Luke 21:24 Jerusalem will be trampled on by the nations, until the appointed times of the nations are fulfilled The nations were already ruling because Gods rulership in Jerusalem had been overturned by Babylon in...

what part of it do you think is extra biblical? Matthew 24:3 has 3 different events questioned by the disciples: the first is 'When will these things be'... the apostles had earlier heard Christ foretell of he destruction of the temple and Jerusalem. So this part of the question refers to the...

the holy land was originally Jerusalem where Gods rulership was represented by an earthly king. But there has been no earthly king in Jerusalem since the 6th century BCE when Babylon overthrew the Davidic kingdom. And we should not expect an earthly king to re-establish the davidic kingdom...

the sign that Jesus gave was a sign for his disciples to know when he had returned. Luke used the greek word 'parousia' in Matthew 24:3“Tell us, When will these things be, and what will be the sign of your 'parousia' and of the conclusion of the system of things?” this word literally means...

hmmm maybe you mean the scripture in Revelation 5:6 And I saw standing in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures and in the midst of the elders a lamb as though it had been slaughtered, having seven horns and seven eyes, which [eyes] mean the seven spirits of God that have been...

the end of the world, ahh. lol the end of the world does not mean the destruction of the earth. Sometimes the bible uses the word 'world' to refer to mankind in general...It says about the Deluge in the days of Noah 2Peter 3:5 For, according to their wish, this fact escapes their notice, that...

i dont know what you mean by the 'rapish' ??? more information needed

because the mosiac law was too difficult for people to abide by. God knows that people will make mistakes and they could never live up to the mosaic laws in all its requirements. It really was only given to the Isrealites to ensure that the Messiah could be born into a nation where Gods holy...

the only way 'anyone' gets to heaven is through Jesus Christ. The jews who are following the mosaic law do not believe in Jesus as the way to God...they still look to the mosaic law as their means of salvation. But the scriptures are clear that obedience to the Son is needed, so the answer is...

yes you have the right idea. Following Jesus leads us to the point where we can have a relationship with God. The bible says that Jesus is a 'mediator' between man and God 1Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, a man, Christ Jesus Christianity was established...

i think you are both wrong for 1John 2:18 says that antichrists were already in the world in the first century: Young children, it is the last hour, and, just as YOU have heard that antichrist is coming, even now there have come to be many antichrists; from which fact we gain the knowledge that...

what do you think it means to follow Christ and where is it leading to according to your understanding? 3 Do you know why Christianity was established?

it doesnt matter to me how im buried... but if i was to bury my child i think i would want a marked grave too My belief is that the resurrection will be a returning to life in the flesh. I know some are resurrected to heavenly life, but i dont think everyone is. Jesus told the criminal who...

some of us are just sick of the heathen elements christianity adopted Let the bible speak and we will be united.

this is all the more reason to feel compassion for such people... hating them is not the answer nor is it Gods way. God doesnt hate anyone....he only hates the things they do. So you have to stop focusing on the the things they are doing but look at the person and see that they are still human...

yep, thats exactly what happens. if we read a verse such as 'a women must remain silent, i do not permit a woman to teach', we shouldnt draw any conclusions until we understand the context of the passage and we should always weigh it up with other scriptures to seek clarification. there is...

in the early congregations, there were prominent women who were spoken of as 'holy women' and as those who were 'striving side by side' in the ministry of God... Romans 16:1-2  I recommend to YOU Phoe′be our sister, who is a minister of the congregation that is in Cen′chre‧ae, 2 that YOU may...

i dont believe there can be unity while everyone believes different things there is only one bible and it stands to reason that all our teachings should be the same if they are based on the bible. But the fact is that not all teachings are based on the bible....and that is a huge problem.

there is perhaps another reason why Paul advised christians to 'Marry only in the Lord' 1Cor 7:12 If any brother has an unbelieving wife, and yet she is agreeable to dwelling with him, let him not leave her; 13 and a woman who has an unbelieving husband, and yet he is agreeable to dwelling with...
