At this period of time, none of us are perfect, cept those who were resurrected to heaven. We do look forward to perfection, but realize that is quite a ways into the future. Commenting on the PS. Very sorry to hear that sir, and she definitely has my sympathies. I certainly will pray for her...

I did explain it Bob, I stated very clearly we (Jehovah's witnesses) believe the first resurrection took place some time after Jesus was enthroned as King. That may or may not be true. Certainly no one observed it. Who was in it? All spirit begotten holy ones with the heavenly calling who had...

That is a very good question maam, and of course the Bible answers it. It all started with the disobedience of Adam, which resulted in inherited sin for his offspring and death as well. Rom 5:12 Why does God allow it? For our everlasting benefit, as if He would have executed Adam and started...

You know Marc, that is a great Psalm, Jesus referred to it, and it is most relevant for those of us who live in this time period. In the near future I believe we will see the fulfillment of vs 9-11 and then ushering in the deliverance of all Christians to the fulfillment of verse 29

I love to study the Bible Marc, and in line with Jesus' assignment those of my faith meet regularly with people. I would be glad to have a study with you, and answer any of your Biblical questions I can. My e is capumetu at yours.com if you can figure that out, send me an e and I will gladly...

It is a principle maam, the beginning of what might become a reality if not put out of the mind.

Yes sir, even Jesus spoke of urgency in his day, and although he didn't know the day or hour himself, no doubt he realized that it would yet be some time off Mk 13:32 One thing that is really great if one does not survive till the return of Christ, is they will most likely receive a...

Obviously some of his teachings was for those under law living at his time on earth, but I was referring to those that he gave for all those who would be part of, and under the new covenant, which was put into force on Pentecost of 33. Most of his teachings were meant for those of us under that...

Yes sir, we believe the first resurrection has taken place. I think you understand our understanding.

Kool as heck name sir, I got stuck with Bob, just your avg yokel name, like your given name John, but at least John is Biblical, and he was the one that Jesus favored and loved most. Obviously, there are more than 2 witnesses of God, no doubt you would agree that although the Bible indicates...

Amen to that sir, Dan 12:4 is being fulfilled right now, of course Habakkuk's prophecy has some time left for it's fulfillment, although true knowledge of God is increasing as prophesied Pro 4:18

Yes sir, I understand, but that is not the Biblical meaning of the Kingdom of God. Likely you are basing it off of the verses found in the KJV where Jesus said the Kingdom is within you Luke 17:21 Consider whom Jesus was talking to, he certainly did not mean it was within them, rather he was...

I am not aware of those two laws stated by Jesus have been exempted by the new covenant sir. Yes Jesus was under law, but his teachings are the basis for the Christian faith, correct?

It appears that we agreed, yet you posted so much information to further the point. I simply didn't understand why, like you said milk/meat is not that important and was simply an illustration used to bring home the point of Christian advancement. Jesus used a plow to illustrate it. So simply...

I am a bit of an idiot Amadeus, I was reading it as Armadeus, I did notice it when I abbreviated your name or handle, but I thought I had called you that before sir, sorry if it offended. I am kind of gathering that you believe it not necessary to congregate, or that a congregation is not...

Yes sir for a fact. One thing I find interesting, much about God is knowledge. One of the big differeces between us and the animal creation, man yearns to learn, and although we look forward to learning for an eternity, we will never ever come to match God's knowledge Ecc 3:11

What do you see happening when that Kingdom comes Mike?

Thanks Mike, I appreciate you sir.

Sadly with imperfection comes infirmities, Paul you mentioned called his a thorn in the flesh. We all have them, and each is different and sometimes virtually impossible to whip. I definitely agree with you that Christians will have the upper hand on contentment, but many among us suffer from...

Likely you would agree that Jesus has not returned yet, all will observe it, however we do believe that his presence, his receiving the Crown, was over a century ago, sometime after that we believe the first resurrection happened. Now as anointed ones die, they are changed in a twinkling of an...
