There was a reason Moses was not allowed to enter the promised land Vicky. As you pointed out, he was definitely among the faithful, in the highest position of shepherding the congregation of God. Jehovah told Moses the reason why he was not allowed to cross the Jordan: (Numbers 20:12)...

I don't really use the term rabbis, but the leaders of the Jewish faith, the Sanhedrin the Jewish high court illegally met and tried Jesus convicting him of blasphemy. Being afraid of those in the faith that recognized Jesus for who he was, they chose to manipulate the Romans into putting Jesus...

Hi Matt, Jesus, who “did not know sin,” was made to “be sin for us,” dying as a human sin offering, to relieve persons of the charge and penalty of sin. Relieved of the charge of sin, such ones could thus appear righteous in God’s eyes, hence “become God’s righteousness by means of him [Jesus].”

Nope, you simply misunderstood the words, but Job did hold his integrity under test. The Bible does not contradict, all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, with the exception of Jesus of course.

We really do not know sir, but we do know that Paul was satisfied that at that time we had preached the good news of the Kingdom to all creation under heaven.

When they receive their reward Be, but while on earth, they are under the same laws and do the same work as we do, although it falls on their shoulders to see it is accomplished.

Yes David, we are in exact agreement, that is exactly how it happened sir. I gather that Robert does not believe that way however. Yes sir you are quite correct! I don't think there is a version out there that does not contain that, very nice you brought that out Dave.

That really sums it up maam. The real reason the Kingdom was taken from the Jews and given to another nation; one who chooses to do the will of Jehovah.

While none of us want to suffer, or undergo persecution, or be hated by others, these can be by products of being a Christian. The early apostles were mostly even killed for their faith. Most Christians today live peaceful lives, but not in all countries, and we fully anticipate that as the...

Amen Scott! And considering the contrast of what we know now, as compared to the end of the millennial reign of Christ when we have been brought to perfection, it is almost unimaginable. Education has always been a big part of Jehovah's people Isa 2:2,3

I am glad that we agree on that point Be. Now all one needs to do is recognize those who actually are born again, who are actually God's covenanted people, and go with them Zech 8:23.

We believe the second 3.5 yrs were kept open to those under the Law covenant to be selected first to be those in the new covenant, over those of the nations. We believe with the conversion of Cornelious in 36 CE, the Law covenant came to it's close, and the Israel of God (Gal 6:16) was now being...

You certainly can Vicky, but I have to admit, I stole it from someone else myself, although it wasn't quite worded that way:eek:

Again Vicky, it is the translator. I am not sure if you think Jesus is God or not, perhaps we discussed it, but my memory is squat, I suffer from CRS (Cant remember. . . stuff :)). I will say this, after the council of Nicea, Jesus was promoted as being God in the flesh maam. The KJV actively...

We disagree Robert, we believe Jehovah's name was included in the Greek Scriptures originally.

No Rob, anywhere you see LORD (All caps) in the Bible the translators chose to change God's name to Adonai. Both Jesus, Jehovah, and many others share the title of Lord, it is simply a title, as is God. Jehovah is not Jesus of the old testament, He is Jesus' Father and God sir.

How nice it would be to actually have all truth sir, but sadly it is yet future. Pro4:18. We are living in the time of the fulfillment of Dan 12:4 however Scott. Jehovah's chariot is moving rapidly, almost difficult for us older ones to keep up.

I think most today who serve God truly love Him from the heart. For the most part Christians are persecuted, not everywhere, but it is quite common. No one wants that, and virtually everywhere in the world it is not popular being a Christian, and blatantly immoral people are no longer viewed...

Perhaps this may help Be: What Does It Mean to Be Born Again? The Bible’s answer The term “born again” refers to a new beginning in the relationship between God and the person who is born again. (John 3:3, 7) God adopts those born again as his children. (Romans 8:15, 16; Galatians 4:5; 1 John...

Yes sir, although you might not understand it (Daniel 9:27) . . .he will keep the covenant in force for the many for one week; and at the half of the week, he will cause sacrifice and gift offering to cease.. . . Jesus became the Messiah at age 30, we believe in 29 CE. His ministry lasted 3...
