Just what basis was originally assigned for discontinuing the use of the name is not definitely known. Some hold that the name was viewed as being too sacred for imperfect lips to speak. Yet the Hebrew Scriptures themselves give no evidence that any of God’s true servants ever felt any hesitancy...

Actually the ancient Jews did know the accurate pronunciation of the four Hebrew consonants YHWH that represented the divine Name. It wasn't the ancient Hebrews who didn't pronounce the name, instead they did pronounce the name YHWH. There is no sound evidence of any disappearance or disuse of...

It's hyper Jehovah is simply the pronunciation of the four Hebrew consonants YHWH. No Jehovah's Witness has ever said that they know for a fact that Jehovah is the accurate pronunciation of those four Hebrew consonants YHWH. They have said and still say that Jehovah is pronunciation of the four...

Jesus Christ wasn't being literal when he said this at Mark 9:43-48. Jesus was using hyperbole. He was saying that a person should be willing to give up something as precious as a hand, a foot, or an eye rather than allow it to cause him to stumble into unfaithfulness. He was obviously not...

I most certainly don't agree with those that believe in the Trinity or the immortality of the soul or the Hellfire doctrine. I know for a fact these doctrines are not in scripture. You can be against me saying that because I'm so certain about what I believe the truth is in the scriptures. I...

Most people do, we all must make our choice what truth the scriptures are teaching. I understand that. But just as you disagree with me I disagree with what most people teach is the truth from the scriptures. I don't believe the True God is a torturous person. I believe when most people see the...

Yes we do there is the 144000 who have the heavenly hope then those of great crowd with the earthly hope, but the 144,000 are not made up of just jews, that's what I was saying.

Actually it's not You nor anyone else has shown me from the scriptures that what i believe to be true from the scriptures isn't true. So I'll continue to believe until I'm shown from the scriptures that I'm in error.

Actually it's not

We are living in the second presence of Jesus Christ today, yes. So those apostles and disciples of Jesus Christ who have died before Jesus Christ second presence began have been resurrected from the dead. But there are is a remnant of that number who are of that heavenly calling living earth...

In Hebrews the apostle Paul is talking to those who were his holy brothers partakers of the heavenly calling. Those who will be kings and priests and judges in that heavenly Messianic kingdom with Jesus are those of the heavenly calling. The apostles and disciples including Paul are of the...

I'm not waiting for the second presence of Jesus Christ but I am waiting for Jesus to destroy the wicked off the earth. Less than a year before he died Jesus explained that some of the apostles would “see the Son of man coming in his kingdom,” or, as Mark phrased it, “see the kingdom of God...

Yes I accept the truth not what men say I must believe. Like I said Paul said in 1 Corinthians 15:23 and 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17 that he and others of the heavenly calling would be resurrected when the second presence of Jesus Christ began.

To comfort first-century Christians who were bereaved of “those who have fallen asleep in death through Christ,” the apostle Paul wrote: We the living [those of the heavenly calling] who survive to the presence of the Lord shall in no way precede those [of the heavenly calling] who have fallen...

All Aunty Jane said was that Paul had a heavenly hope, which is true, she didn't say that Paul when he died went to heaven that very day. She didn't say that Paul was resurrected before the second presence of Jesus Christ. It seems to me when you quote Philippians 1:21-23 you're trying to...

Again all you can do is insult when someone reasons on the scriptures and shows you're in error.

A genuine Jehovah's Witness wouldn't speak against scripture. So the person who told you that, wasn't a Jehovah's Witness, or not a loyal one at least. In scripture Paul was inspired to say at 1 Thessalonians 4:15, 16 "For this is what we tell you by Jehovah’s word, that we the living who...

I'm not going to deny 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17 as you're doing. The apostle Paul taught us that the heavenly resurrection for those “in union with Christ” had not yet begun to occur at the time Paul wrote to the Corinthians. Paul pointed to a future time: “Each one in his own proper order: Christ...

At 1 Peter 4:6, Who were “the dead” to whom “the good news was declared”? I believe these were ones who were ‘dead in their trespasses and sins,’ or who were spiritually dead, before they heard the good news. (Ephesians 2:1) After putting faith in the good news, though, they began to “live”...

In post #650 which you liked, so I assumed you read it. In that post I said I was a Jehovah's Witness. Jehovah's Witnesses go to kingdom Halls
