some think ...........some know
and yet most all of them ONLY THINK THEY KNOW .
We got problems all over the place .
When so called higher learning contradicts what is plainly written
OH IT aint higher learning
its delusion and pride and the lustful hearts of men which leads only to fierce burning .
Ponder on that for a bit .

What is your intent in wanting to know
There is no intent . I simply read where one asked you
And then i seen your response ,
Very prideful response i might add .
Come and let us reason together this so called higher learning ye perhaps do have
or perhaps THINK you have . Alert and alarm bells rang instantly today .
That is why i was led to speak about this higher learning .
Perhaps you might be thinking , OH they aint ready for it quite yet .
I have seen these approaches for years my friend .
BRING to the table what it is you do believe and let the peoples test it .
FEEL free to examine and test anything i do and or say . BRING this higher learning
and let us examine it well .

yes you may ask
and as is typical for a JW who is incognito you did not reply.
What is your intent in wanting to know
What is your intent in wanting to hide? I know what you are taught and you know that I know.-- which is why you keep ignoring my Q.s.
Would you care to go through the JW LOCUST teaching with ME?

I know I'm late however we can go to the parable Jesus taught in reference to the wedding feast, in Matt. 22, the second wave of guest representing the Gentiles or us who were grafted in, after the initial guest, the Jewish people, who were initially invited to be part of God's kingdom but largely rejected Jesus.

Accepting the invitation requires more than just showing up; it requires a genuine commitment to God and a transformed life. However, one guest is found without proper (wedding attire) today the blood covering of Jesus, and is cast out, showing that while many are called to salvation, not all will be chosen because of their disobedient lifestyles, what happen to him? Verse13 “Then the king told the attendants, ‘Tie him hand and foot, and throw him outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’

I believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible written Word of God, so yes I take it literally that there is a hell and ones will live in torment.

Can I ask why the name, locust?
some are outright calling JESUs a liar .
some may think and some may know , BUT ITS DARN CLEAR
that many ONLY THINK they KNOW . something is dead wrong in all of this my friend .
Paul , as well as Christ and others SPOKE of a RESSURECTION of the just and the unjust .
And in even the book of revelation we see such a place
but many have omitted it , tried to change it ,
and all i keep thinking is
WOE UNTO HE who adds too or takes from the words IN THIS BOOK .

.
If there is a Hell, I hope they have visiting hours because my mom and at
least one of my brothers would already be down there, and I'd really like to
see them at least one more time before they're transferred to the lake of fire
depicted by Rev 20:11-15 where the lost's resurrected bodies will be
destroyed by a mode of death akin to a foundry worker falling into a kettle
of molten iron.
_
I don't feel you have the authority to say where there souls are, for only God sees the heart, and at the time of their deaths you don't know what was in their hearts, just make sure if they are in hell you don't meet them there because of judging them or anyone else

The truth , the simple truth is
Many have come to another jesus and that jesus cannot save them and it will serve thier lusts .
They do not know Him and now all are being gathered as one
to merge as one with darkness and all religoins of it
all beleiving in a rainbow holding god that honors all paths to him .
many are gonna wail and wail and wail and wail on the day of the LORD .
JESUS dont honor sins
JESUS dont kiss on korans and budda statues
and say things like hey we all coming to the same God . BUT THE DEVIL DOES . many love satan
but they beleive its GOD . many love that which is of anti christ but believe its of christ .
I never seen such a delusion and many call it love and believe its of GOD . Many love sin , THAT IS THE KEY .
MANY love their sin and will choose any god that gives them the idea of salvation and Having their sin too .

Ye shall know them BY THIER FRUITS . and that IS THE KEY right there .
The fruit of the wicked IS TO SIN
The fruit of the SPIRIT is in all righteousness , godliness and TRUTH
proving what is ACCEPTABLE TO GOD . notice that says what is acceptable TO GOD .
AND SIN AINT
neither is a broad path to HIM either .
MANY are now in love with a love that IS NOT OF GOD .
For the LOVE that cometh of GOD
the CHARITY OF GOD , REJOICES ONLY IN THE TRUTH , not in inquity not in a lie .
THE FRUIT . ITS THE FRUIT that ye shall know them by my friend .
NOT by smiles and hugs
HECK i could smile and hug and even at times give to one in need
YET I STILL SERVED MY SIN , MY LOVE WAS MY SIN , my faith was DEAD .
Thank GOD all MIGHTY HE PULLED ME OUTTA ALL OF THAT and gave me a whole new heart with new desires .
YOU can know them by their fruits . And anyone can put on a show of false humility and hugs and etc .
But watch their words and their actions . Ye shall see WHO IT IS THEY TRULY LOVED .

locust,?? its code . its from the book revelation 9 .... all the other locust know.

In Lev 11:22 The bald locust is a clean meal, they could eat those

But the shapes of the locust in Rev 9:7 had hair as the hair of women

So what we do have here is bald and hairy locusts.

You are a hairy locust?
