    Is smoking a sin?

    I think I agree with you on this sir. We do disfellowship those who choose to smoke, so our governing body has determined it to be a serious sin, and I fully understand the line of reasoning on it. We believe life is a gift from God, and it is to be held holy. If someone disrespects that life...

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    Perhaps if you define gentiles it may help. If you are thinking the literal meaning, then we disagree, if you are applying that name to them as spiritual gentiles, then I would fully agree. Those gentiles will be made up of people of all nations the same way the little flock is.

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    Forever said horrible, and I fully agree Davy. Perhaps you are overlooking Matt 24:22 and Luke 21:26. The mere fact that it is called tribulation should give you some insight on it. In fact Jesus himself said: (Matthew 24:21) . . .there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since...

    Any idea what Christ means Backlit?

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    I fully agree Davy. We may understand the term Gentiles a bit differently however, since I don't really use that term in conjunction with the other sheep.

    Is smoking a sin?

    Neither am I Pearl. Most Christians don't, rather they inherit the earth Mat 5:5; Ps 37:9-11, 29

    Would you be so kind as to define "only begotten Son" sir?

    Biggest mistake of the church and we need to go back

    If you disagreed with the verses I gave you sir, we have came to our conclusion. You say his body, we say his life. I have adequately given my reasons for believing he was raised back to his former state. He was not a physical being in heaven prior to becoming a human, nor did he return to...

    Biggest mistake of the church and we need to go back

    Make sure you understand what is being said. compare versions, and research the original words Enoch. It is an important point.

    The 12 tribes of Israel: They be us.

    I fully agree Bob. Soon Jehovah is going to put it into the hearts of the Kings of the earth to destroy all of false religion, an unfulfilled prophecy in which we should see the fulfillment of Rev 17:15-17. You may not understand that, but like you I am sure that they will not fare well.

    No Redemption for David?

    Yes sir I am very sorry, I did for a fact misunderstand you. Yes I fully understand your comment, the main reason is that after all the corruption was rooted out of the land, which David proved exemplary in, the promised land flowing with milk and honey was to be peaceful for it's inhabitants...

    What is implied here

    I thought you felt that way sir. That woman is much bigger than Mary, symbolically it is Jehovah's wife, His woman. His heavenly organization. I know that is very difficult to understand, prayer and an honest heart will go far in understanding the deeper things. Ask Jehovah to reveal the meaning...

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    The literal theme of the Bible is: The vindication of Jehovah's sovereignty and the fulfillment of His purpose for the earth by means of His Kingdom under Christ, the promised offspring. That is God's main concern. Everyone who receives salvation will receive it through the ransom sacrifice...

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    The great tribulation is horrible sir, the most horrible thing that man will ever have to go through honestly. I seriously doubt that any of us wants to go through it, yet we realize that for God's kingdom to come, it has to precede that coming as well. All of us Christians have prayed for, and...

    You are correct sir, I always believe the Bible over peoples opinions 1 Cor 11:3. Believe it or not.

    No Redemption for David?

    The Bible indicates David was very dear to Jehovah's heart. He will be there among God's people in the resurrection sir, no doubt in my mind. And this can be very encouraging to us sinners. Some of us may feel unworthy, but have never done the evils that David did. We can be forgiven, as long as...

    the "let none steal your crown" IS "the 666 mark" : [likely as-] graphene injection

    Identification of the mark of the beast is helped if one realizes the beast is governments.

    Biggest mistake of the church and we need to go back

    We do not teach that Jesus was bodily resurrected sir, the Bible states he was raised a spirit. Thomas was an apostle, and as you see by the account he did not recognize Jesus physically, in fact no one did, ever! Like many angels who came to earth they materialized bodies as Jesus obviously...

    (37 M.V) Faith without works is dead - James 2:14-26

    You know Matt, that is exactly true, exactly what Jesus said. But there is so much more, what is our assignment based on that love sir?
