I found this in 'Truth' magazine about the JWs:
Jehovah's Witnesses are more speculative than most denominations when it comes to the second coming of Christ. They believe the millennium is to "shortly happen,"' "within this generation,"' and that "a literal millennium fits in harmoniously with the proved timetable of God."' Several times they have predicted this advent. They said Jesus would come again in 1874 (which they explain as a miscalculation to be blamed on The Emphatic Diaglott and the King James Version0). Later, believing God's people who survive Armageddon "will be favored with the privilege of literally seeing the resurrected `Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets' back here on the Paradise earth and in royal service under the Kingdom of God,' they said, "Therefore we may confidently expect that 1925 will mark the return of Abraham, Issac, Jacob and the faithful prophets of old, particularly those named by the Apostle in Hebrews chapter eleven, to the condition of human perfection."' But this event did not happen either. The most often promoted of their predictions is 1914. They believe Revelation 6 depicts World War I (1914), which "marked the time when . . . Jesus Christ, received the heavenly crown.' But since the church was not glorified in heaven on Oct. 1, 1914, they said, "Something must have been miscalculated."i0 They now say that "since that time (1914 when they believe he was enthroned") Christ has turned his attention toward earth's affairs and is . . . educating the true Christians in preparation for their survival during the great storm of Armageddon, when all unfaithful mankind will be destroyed from the face of the earth."" They still believe Jesus came and was installed king, but invisibly so. "Jehovah's Witnesses believe that the kingdom is a real government from heaven, that it will rule over the earth, and that Jesus Christ is its appointed invisible king"'' (Isa. 9:6,7, KJ). "Although it occurred invisibly to our human eyes in the heavens, yet it was in the year 1914 . . . that . . . there were given to the `son of man' all that `rulership and dignity and kingdom."'" So they believe that in 1914 Jesus received his crown and began to reign invisibly from heaven as a prelude to the millennium which will come in our generation. Premillennial Proofs Their proof for all of this? Jesus foretold that this would take place within the generation of those who would witness an extraordinary upheaval in human affairs. Concerning his "presence," Jesus gave a composite "sign" involving such developments as unparalleled warfare, earthquakes, famines, pestilences -- yes, and the worldwide preaching of the good news of God's kingdom (Matt. 24:15; Mk. 13; Lk. 12). Jesus' prophecy involves events taking place right now in our 20th century. Hence, it will not be long before God's kingdom brings grand blessings to mankind. You can be among those to en-joy the benefits of kingdom rule." So it seems they have abandoned their idea of giving a precise date for the second coming and instead replaced it with a vague concept - 'soon'. How convenient! |

All religions are false, as you say. In my opinion, the Catholic Church in particular exists as a control mechanism, with threats of burning in hell if you don't do those things their priests tell you to do. It's not only religions that are false, it is the whole concept of a 'god' which was actually invented by man. Truly, there really is no such thing, it is all in the minds of those who 'believe'. I read somewhere that the Quan Yin Meditation is actually a money scam and not a serious attempt at doing anything that might be useful to people. I'll have to check that out and get back here. Unless anyone wants to ask mr google? Right, it's all Legal Mumbo Jumbo!! |

Unless anyone wants to ask mr google? Christianity is NOT in the Bible. It is for you to meditate and understand what that really means. The bible tells us that God DOES EXIST but he is not the God of everyone. That's why Christ has been scoffed and hated of all men. God has perpetual enemies. The enemies of God teach meditation and other spiritual disciplines, because they are fraudulent, have no knowledge and hate their Creator. |

Heaven is very small. Nobody is going to get in. It's full for now. there's only four cleaning ladies there, one is American, one is Russian, one is Chinese, and the other African, and they all speak mostly Spanish. They can speak English, but if they get pissed, they end the dialog in Spanish.
so.................... If your not a cleaning lady, and don't speak fluent Spanish, you're not getting in. |

Hahah, all will get in but not in the same roll or capacity. The biggest cleaners will be the smallest and Trump won't be killing anybody. |

In my opinion, the Catholic Church in particular exists as a control mechanism, with threats of burning in hell if you don't do those things their priests tell you to do. This is cause so many priests cannot teach right. 2 Timothy 2 22. Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. 23. But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. 24. And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25. In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26. And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will. In meekness like i talked to one priest and he agreed with me, he was pretty smart, I would say 70 percent of them dont know how to teach. That is sad, how can someone teach humility if he has not been taught through lessons in ones life. what makes you think people are religious vs non, I can say i am a carpenter too, yet dont know the trade from expiearance. Its actions and deeds from your heart. just like when a carpeter works, its his actions that show work. So people can say they are this way or in that religion, but so many has no facts. |

I think this info is priceless for God's seekers who looking for d truth, miracle and d love of God. Every person who believes that God is one and worships Him, does not offend people and does not attack them will enter Heaven, whether he is Muslim, Christian or Jew. Satan tries to direct people to be bad and God has set fire to those who listen to Satan. Nevertheless, God opened the door for repentance. So person who sin, could returns to God Almighty. Who enters the Hell? The polytheist who believes that God is not one and has a partner in ruling Whoever worships other than God, and prostrates to others like idols. A man or woman, who commits adultery, to establish a full sexual relationship with another person that is not permissible for him and without a legal marriage relationship Whoever participates in a terrorist act such as blocking the road by standing with a group of people in the way of others trying to plunder, loot, kill, or even intimidate them. Whoever kills an innocent person. Who deceives people in order to laugh at them, take their money and steals |
