Are you an ex baptized JW? I didn't say what you posted.
I've already answered that countless times for you, Keiw. Since I understood the Gentiles = the other sheep by the nwt and prayer why did you say I learned from darkness?

Yes a great number=8 or 9 million out of nearly 9 billion.=FEW--Only 8 or 9 million obey Jesus on Earth. Only 8 or 9 million even know what Jesus actually taught. So its just as Jesus spoke=FEW will find the road that leads off into life=Matt 7:14
What part of "which no man can number" do you fail to understand? Why are you trying to put some imaginary number on it?

I wasn't aware that heaven has an end. How do you explain Isa. 40:22; 44:24; Jer. 10:12; Zech. 12:1, which speaks of God stretching out the heavens?

I guess the earth is square, since they have corners too (Isa. 41:9; Rev. 7:1, 20:8)
Either you believe the scriptures or you do not, make your choice, As for your snide comment about a flat earth well how about what the bible delivers here

Isa 40:22 It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:

I'm well aware of what the Scriptures say about the earth, if you notice in my comment, I referenced that verse.

BTW ... what's a "tungs"?

All who are not apart of the little flock are the other sheep=the great crowd of Rev 7:9--there are no others that belong to Jesus that haven't died already.

No...it couldn't. It plainly says "no man can number" .

LORD isn't at Malachi in a real bible translation-YHVH(Jehovah) is what God put. See how all using the alytered translations are being mislead into believing LORD in the OT = Jesus but it doesn't.

Keiw, are you aware that you just repeat things over and over without any actual scriptural support? It's like you are a recording and not a human being. I'm fully aware of what you were taught to think, but the scriptures say otherwise. I am telling you the truth. Would you like to do a scripture study on this? I've asked a couple of times now. It's sad to see you repeating these same things when they are not correct.

--there are no others that belong to Jesus that haven't died already.
What does this mean?

Revelation was written in greek. There is no variations in any text on Rev 7:9. What in the world are you talking about? Stop drinking the watchtower kool-aid. They are deceiving you.

No precise #-- and it could be less than what i shared.
Scripturally, No man can number means we can't count that high- like grains of sand on the beach. -stars in the sky. I really hope one day that you trust the scriptures over what someone told you it says. It's so important Keiw. The Good Lord gave you a brain and he wants you to also use it. I say that because I know you are told not to think independently. It is OK to read the bible and pray!

The only ones who belong to Jesus= the little flock and the great crowd. The rest will be judged as goats during the tribulation. You cant find any others in Gods bible that belong to Jesus.
Many through the years stood for Jesus yet died.

Every scholar on Earth knows its 100% proven fact, God put the tetragramoton=YHWH or YHVH in nearly 6800 spots in the OT -quoted over 200 spots in the NT. Thus wicked men, by satans will who had 0 right to remove Gods name against his will, removed it and replaced it with titles-it misleads.
Great crowd or great multitude, mean exactly the same thing.
I get truth shared with me. ALL using the translations altered by satans will remain in darkness.

Jesus was clear--FEW will find the road that leads off into life( be saved)--He compared these last days to Noahs day( 99.9% mislead) Luke 17:26)-- No man can say the exact #--The little flock is numbered exact=144,000( Rev 14:3)

The verse we are discussing is in the new testament. It was written in greek.
