Luke 24, John 20, Acts 10 all describe very specifically that He was bodily resurrected. in Luke He Himself explicitly tells them He is flesh & bone because they think He is only a spirit. it directly addresses & unquestionably refutes the false cultic doctrine you are trying to spread.

moreover in John 2 He Himself says "speaking of His body" that He would raise it.

you say 'the Bible never states' but that's a lie, Mssr. Gwin.
even in your JW butchered & edited so-called-Bible, they neglected to remove or change these things.
do not lie.

Jesus was either resurrected spiritually as the Bible indicates at 1 Cor 15:45 and 1 Pet 3:18 or as you state. We teach it was a spiritual resurrection, the first in fact, and that Jesus returned to heaven in the form that he was prior to his lowering himself by becoming flesh. Jesus returned in a higher stature that he help previously, matter of fact #2 position sitting at God's right hand, not in a lowered fleshly body. Phil 2:7

and Jesus Himself emphatically says and demonstrates that He is bodily risen and bodily ascended.
so what we have here is clear:
  • you actively reject Him & His Word
  • you teach false doctrine
  • you are a cultist, not a Christian

Personally I believe the Bible sir, when it states very clearly that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of heaven, it settles it for me. 1 Cor 15:50

Where’s Jehovah’s witnesses in the new covenant we are in?

The only witnesses called for in the New Testament is Jesus witnesses, per Acts 1:8.

Jesus bore testimony of his God Jehovah, we his disciples bear testimony of Jehovah as he did and of Jesus as his Biblically recorded followers did, no difference today Curt. That is how Christians bear testimony of Jesus sir. Christians today also bear witness of other faithful ones who were our predecessors, sometimes even of the current anointed.

Jesus is never King in heaven.

Old Testament and New Testament prophecies clearly state that Jesus will come back to earth and rule His kingdom on David’s throne, in Jerusalem. Forever.

And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.


Luk 1:32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:


Luk 1:33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.



Isa 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.


Isa 9:7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall beno end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

Jeremiah 23:5-6 “Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, that I will raise to David a Branch of righteousness; a King shall reign and prosper, and execute judgment and righteousness in the earth. In His days Judah will be saved, and Israel will dwell safely; now this is His name by which He will be called: THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS”

Zep 3:14 Sing aloud, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel! Rejoice and exult with all your heart, O daughter of Jerusalem!

Zep 3:15 The LORD has taken away the judgments against you; he has cleared away your enemies. The King of Israel, the LORD, is in your midst; you shall never again fear evil.

Zep 3:16 On that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: “Fear not, O Zion; let not your hands grow weak.

Zep 3:17 The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.

Jesus' residence is in heaven sir, he will return and remove the wicked and the Kingdom will come as we pray for at that time. Jesus, nor the Kings and Priests that have been redeemed from the earth will reside here, rather they will rule over the earth from heaven. No doubt you pray for that day to come as I do as well sir.
