I agree... yet according to a certain commentator, Christ was abyssed Satan in 33 CE.. The odd thing is that the following scripture was written several decades after 33 CE states, "We know that we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one." 1 John 5:19 If Satan had already been abyssed, how is it that the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one? Isn't Satan's Abasement yet a future act that will take place over a literal thousand years? Revelation 20:3 And he hurled him into the abyss and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he would not mislead the nations anymore until the 1,000 years were ended. After this he must be released for a little while. Revelation 20:7 Now as soon as the 1,000 years have ended, Satan will be released from his prison, Revelation 20:2 He seized the dragon, the original serpent, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for 1,000 years.

Absolutely in error. In the Last days that began in 1914 (the wicked would receive the good news about God's Kingdom) and the Warning that these Last Days are approaching their end. Instead of being jubilate and happy, their response is almost always negative. So when JW's approach such ones with the Good News, their reaction is often hostile, rude, and unchristian, sometimes even demonic. "But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here. For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, betrayers, headstrong, puffed up with pride, lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God, having an appearance of godliness but proving false to its power; and from these turn away." (2 Timothy 3:1-5) In order for a Paradise on earth to be possible. The "wicked will be removeed by dying the second death" as the Last Days come to their conclusion. JW's will no longer be preaching to such ones as we turn away from these. During the thousand years of Christ Millennial Reign that will start with Armageddon. We will soon begin having Bible studies with the newly resurrected ones. We are now being told to prepare for Life in the New World.

What was that visual manifestion in the sky that was proof of Jehovah's Peace Convenant for righteous mankind? https://www.jw.org/en/library/books/bible-stories/2/the-first-rainbow/ Revelation 4:3 And the One seated had the appearance of a jasper stone and a sardius stone, and all around the throne was a rainbow like an emerald in appearance. Genesis 9:16 And the rainbow will occur in the cloud, and I will certainly see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of every kind on the earth.” Revelation 10:1 And I saw another strong angel descending from heaven, arrayed with a cloud, and a rainbow was on his head, and his face was like the sun, and his legs were like pillars of fire, Ezekiel 1:28 like that of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day. That was how the surrounding brilliant light appeared. It was like the appearance of the glory of Jehovah. When I saw it, I fell facedown and began to hear the voice of someone speaking.

The truth of the matter is.... the Hebrew Language has NO LETTERS in it. It's called Hebrew Script. Your ideology comes from the Catholic Church whom supprorted Adolf Hilter's extermination of the JEWS. Then again, wasn't it the Catholic Church burning Bibles and People at the Starous for reading the Bible? Yet, the German language has the letter "J" and not once do you condem them? Why is that?

But you claim the word Jew is a made name up because the letter "J". The readers should know your stance against, Jehovah, Jesus, and the Jews. I find it quite hypocritical when you quote scripture from the Book of John, but believe John is a false and made up name because the letter, "J". Can one conclude from your hypocrisy that Jerusalem doesn't exist either?? Maybe your Name James or Julie doesn't exist? Everything is in vain for you so you continue your weeping and gnashing...

Jesus the Chief Cornerstone is Jehovah's Faithful Witness. Revelation 1:5 and from Jesus Christ, “the Faithful Witness,” “the firstborn from the dead,” and “the Ruler of the kings of the earth.” To him who loves us and who set us free from our sins by means of his Own Blood—

Posted January 21 @ The Bible foretold not only the serious problems we now face but also the better times we can expect soon. It describes a future that is way beyond what human governments could hope to achieve, one that only God can provide. “He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.”—Revelation 21:4. Jehovah’s Witnesses take comfort in the Bible’s promises of a bright future, and this helps them to see beyond the pandemic. They also support one another by obeying the Bible’s command to gather regularly for worship. (Hebrews 10:24, 25) Everyone is welcome to attend the meetings of Jehovah’s Witnesses, which are being held virtually during the pandemic. Others agree that joining together with Jehovah’s Witnesses for worship has been helpful during these difficult times. For example, a woman infected with COVID-19 accepted an invitation to join Jehovah’s Witnesses’ virtual meetings. These meetings helped her emotionally despite her ongoing health issues from the virus. She later said: “I feel that I am part of this family too. Reading the Bible gives me peace of mind and inner calm. It helps me focus on my hope for the future instead of my problems. Thank you for helping me find that connection with God that I have sought all my life.” Read More...

When you pray do you ever use God's Name Jehovah? Why not try approaching him and ask for help and understanding? Then close the pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen. Then study the following content. Ask, Jehovah will help you Psalm 51:17 The sacrifices pleasing to God are a broken spirit; A heart broken and crushed, O God, you will not reject. Psalm 34:18 Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit. The Truth About the Kingdom of God

Well, I appreciate you and your honest efforts. It really has alot to do with the heart condition. Someone with an honest heart may have questions, so how a person responds, can either provide comfort and understanding or leave a person empty and disappointed. So don't give up and allow anyone to pursade you to stop asking questions. Jesus taught his followers not to give up. Matthew 7:7 “Keep on asking, and it will be given you; keep on seeking, and you will find; keep on knocking, and it will be opened to you; You may have noticed that sometimes, I misspell words or stop short of a constructive sentence. I make many mistakes and Enlgish is my first language. So I ask you to forgive me. A person with a responsive heart can hear the ring of truth from reading a scripture. So they dig alittle deeper. Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is alive and exerts power and is sharper than any two-edged sword and pierces even to the dividing of soul and spirit, and of joints from the marrow, and is able to discern thoughts and intentions of the heart. Acts 17:11 Now these were more noble-minded than those in Thes·sa·lo·niʹca, for they accepted the word with the greatest eagerness of mind, carefully examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so. Malachi 3:18 And you will again see the distinction between a righteous person and a wicked person, between one serving God and one not serving him.”

Yes, that's correct. Jesus doesn't come back to the earth in the flesh. Rather he rules over the earth FROM Heaven. 1 Peter 3:18 For Christ died once for all time for sins, a righteous person for unrighteous ones, in order to lead you to God. He was put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit. Those who rule with Christ for the thousand years have already gained immortal life. That means they cannot not die again and the second death has no power over them. Revelation 20:6 Happy and holy is anyone having part in the first resurrection; over these the second death has no authority, but they will be priests of God and of the Christ, and they will rule as kings with him for the 1,000 years. Jesus and his co-rulers of 144,000 will bring mankind back to perfection that Adam and Eve once enjoyed prior to sinning. Also the earth will be made into Paradise. Like every Kingdom, it has subjects. Those on earth will enjoy a righteous New World as Satan Earthly Governments are brought to nothing. (It's Spiritual) In Biblical times governments were called kingdoms. Armageddon is a good thing as it marks the beginning of Christ's Millennial Reign. (Of course, at first, the wicked do not know this) Daniel 2:44 “In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. And this kingdom will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it alone will stand forever, Revelation 7:13 In response one of the elders said to me: “These who are dressed in the white robes, who are they and where did they come from?” Revelation 7:14 So right away I said to him: “My lord, you are the one who knows.” And he said to me: “These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. These ones that come out of the Great Tribulation, do not die but rather keep on living. They simply outlive the wicked as the wicked die off (not knowing that they are dying the second death) which is a permanent one like that of Adam and Eve. The scriptures give the (revealing) in this manner. Deuteronomy 28:10 All the peoples of the earth will have to see that Jehovah’s name has been called upon you, and they will be afraid of you.

Yep.... Revelation 20:6 Happy and holy is anyone having part in the first resurrection; over these the second death has no authority, but they will be priests of God and of the Christ, and they will rule as kings with him for the 1,000 years. 1 Corinthians 15:24 Next, the end, when he hands over the Kingdom to his God and Father, when he has brought to nothing all government and all authority and power

God's Name in Very Old Bibles... Enjoy!! Dated from 1877 to 1477. Gods name in 19 old bibles from 1877 - 1477 LORD Yahweh Jehovah - KJV - Tyndale - Geneva.mp4 Hey @Patiently waiting for Truth Notice the screenshot at the 12:10 timeline.

Interesting thought. Adam and Eve were Perfect. Their assignment was to expand the Garden of Eden earthwide. While Adam was still a Bachelor and very early after being created, "Jehovah God took the man and settled him in the garden of Eʹden to cultivate it and to take care of it. Jehovah God also gave this command to the man: “From every tree of the garden you may eat to satisfaction. But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will certainly die.” (Genesis 2:15-17) They already had everlasting life. The only way for them to lose everlasting life was to become disobedient. Then all would be lost. They would indeed have to endure hardship as they began to die and turn back to dust. The same place they came from come from, the dirt. "In the sweat of your face you will eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. For dust you are and to dust you will return.” (Genesis 3:19) Death was the pubishment of them returning to the dust. Not some kind of eternal torture. Thus, they became imperfect and inherited all the ailments that came with sickness and old age. Therefore, their offspring would inherit imperfection has a result. These would endure hardships through out life as imperfect human beings. Question: "Why did God choice to make it a 1000-year reign, before he allows Satan to stand again before man?" Answer: He said to them: “It does not belong to you to know the times or seasons that the Father has placed in his own jurisdiction." Acts 1:7 However, Jehovah is now making his will known. "For the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will not do a thing Unless he has revealed his confidential matter to his servants the prophets." Amos 3:7 Question: "Did all those that believed in Gods, miracles through Moses, stand firm with their loyalty?" Answer: Only a few like Jousha and Aaron and some of their offspring. Most did not stand firm during the 40 year trek and Pharoah despised the miracles given. Check out the ten plagues. Question: "If, Israelites could be convinced to be disloyal, that will be the final test for mankind by means of Satan's release." Answer: "Now I want you to know, brothers, that our forefathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea and all got baptized into Moses by means of the cloud and of the sea, and all ate the same spiritual food and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they used to drink from the spiritual rock that followed them, and that rock meant the Christ. Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them, for they were struck down in the wilderness." (1 Corinthians 10:1-5) Those who were struck down will not stand or be there for the final test for mankind by means of Satan's release. They already died the second death in the same manner as Adam and Eve. The are dead forever returning to dust. So who are the ones that are resurrected and will stand again?

Now, you got it! What was instituted afer Sundown? Jesus instituted the Lord’s Evening Meal on the date of the Jewish Passover, and he died later that same day. (Matthew 26:1-2) The pattern established by Jesus helps determine not only the frequency but also the date and time of the Memorial. He introduced the observance after sundown on Nisan 14, 33 C.E., according to the Bible’s lunar calendar. (Matthew 26:18-20, 26)

Jesus body was sacrifced, so the Devil has no claim to it. He already had his body beated, tortured, then killed. Jesus is now a life-giving spirit. John 6:51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread he will live forever; and for a fact, the bread that I will give is my flesh in behalf of the life of the world.” 2 Corinthians 5:16 So from now on we know no man from a fleshly viewpoint. Even if we once knew Christ according to the flesh, we certainly no longer know him in that way. Luke 24:23 and when they did not find his body, they came saying that they had also seen a supernatural sight of angels, who said he is alive. Luke 24:3 and when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. Hebrews 10:5 So when he comes into the world, he says: “‘Sacrifice and offering you did not want, but you prepared a body for me.

@Witness It's simply a lack of understanding. The Day of Christ is a thousand years. Have you never heard of Christ's Millennial Reign? Adam and Eve choose to decide what was good and bad for themselves and partook of the tree of knowledge. Therefore, Adam was to die within the day he partook. And he did. "So all the days of Adam’s life amounted to 930 years, and then he died." (Genesis 5:5) Jesus Christ bought back what Adam lost. However, it will take a day to bring righteous mankind back to perfection in order to be tested by Satan. 1 Corinthians 15:45 So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living person.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit. 1 Corinthians 15:22 For just as in Adam all are dying, so also in the Christ all will be made alive. 1 Corinthians 15:24 Next, the end, when he hands over the Kingdom to his God and Father, when he has brought to nothing all government and all authority and power. Satan will be released from the abyss to test Perfect Mankind when Jesus brings mankind to perfection. It's "a timed event." Like all things, the timing is in the Bible for ALL to SEE... Here's a scripture that will be fullfilled 3 times! So it is a scripture worthy of the timing. Thus, just as three witnesses would firmly prove a matter to be true, a threefold repetition seems to establish it firmly or emphasize it.—Ezekiel 21:27; Acts 10:9-16; Revelation 4:8; 8:13. Hosea 6:2 He will revive us after two days. On the third day he will raise us up, And we will live before him. This scripture was written at the time it occurred. First Witness. Then Fullfilled a Second time in regards to Christ. Second Witness. Jesus death and resurrection occurred in 33 CE did it not? So what is the third witness? So what do the two days bring us too? 8 However, do not let this escape your notice, beloved ones, that one day is with Jehovah* as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day.h 9 Jehovah* is not slow concerning his promise,i as some people consider slowness, but he is patient with you because he does not desire anyone to be destroyed but desires all to attain to repentance. How long do you think the third day is? It's coming but you can't see it. Why? But Jehovah’s* dayk will come as a thief,l in which the heavens will pass awaym with a roar,* but the elements being intensely hot will be dissolved, and earth and the works in it will be exposed.n11 Since all these things are to be dissolved in this way, consider what sort of people you ought to be in holy acts of conduct and deeds of godly devotion, 12 as you await and keep close in mind* the presence of the day of Jehovah,*o through which the heavens will be destroyedp in flames and the elements will melt in the intense heat! 13 But there are new heavens and a new earth that we are awaiting according to his promise,q and in these righteousness is to dwell.r

A True Christian knows that the Earth will become a Paradise because Jehovah purposed it. Therefore, I had no need to respond to such deception that the earth will never become a Paradise. It would be alikened to trying to reason with a drunk and bosterious person. Let the scripture intrept scripture. Isaiah 45:18 For this is what Jehovah says, The Creator of the heavens, the true God, The One who formed the earth, its Maker who firmly established it, Who did not create it simply for nothing, but formed it to be inhabited: “I am Jehovah, and there is no one else." Psalm 37:9 For evil men will be done away with, But those hoping in Jehovah will possess the earth. Psalm 37:10 Just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more; You will look at where they were, And they will not be there. Psalm 37:20 But the wicked will perish; The enemies of Jehovah will vanish like glorious pastures; They will vanish like smoke. Psalm 37:27 Turn away from bad and do what is good, And you will remain forever. Psalm 37:29 The righteous will possess the earth, And they will live forever on it. Psalm 37:34 Hope in Jehovah and follow his way, And he will exalt you to take possession of the earth. When the wicked are done away with, you will SEE it. Psalm 37:38 But all the transgressors will be destroyed; The future of wicked people will be cut off.

Yes... once the sun starts setting it takes about 50 minutes for it to set. Once the sun starts setting it's considered evening or night. More importantly, @Chioke Lin was on to something when mentioning dusk and dawn. Read the account of Jesus. Ater the Passover Meal, he was discussing that he was going to be betrayed. AS the Last Supper (Passover Meal) was concluding, Jesus was reclining at the table with the 12 disciples.  While they were eating, he said: “Truly I say to you, one of you will betray me.” (Matthew 26:20-21) Therefore, the event that concluded the Last Passover Meal was the dismissal of an unfaithful apostle. Jesus answered: “It is the one to whom I will give the piece of bread that I dip.” So after dipping the bread, he took it and gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.  After Judas took the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. So Jesus said to him: “What you are doing, do it more quickly.” (John 13:26-28) “So after he received the piece of bread, he went out immediately. And it was night.” (John 13:30) The Greek Word nux for night can also denote night is coming or darkness. After dismissing the betrayer from the midst of the Faithful Disciples, Jesus instituted a new teaching for His Faithful Followers. The Passover is done with by that time and forever. Anyways, most Jews wouldn't have any left overs. Christ is our Passover... get it? The Law was nailed to the tree...

You're so close! They would commence eating once the bottom of the sun is at the horizon. Meal was to conclude when the the Sun sat or at Sundown. (When the Sun disappears and sinks below the horizon) If the entire meal was not consumed, what was left over must be burned that night before morning. (Exodus 12:10) 12 They must not leave any of it until morning, nor break any of its bones; they must observe it in accordance with every statute of the Passover. Num 9:9-12

I think you are doing quite well. 😀 King James “hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.” (Rev 20:13) New World "the Grave gave up the dead in them, and they were judged individually according to their deeds." (Rev 20:13)

The Passover was to be eaten in haste between the two sunsets which is about a 50 minute window from when the sun began setting (bottom of the sun meets the horizon) or as Lev 23:5 says it, "In the first month, on the 14th day of the month, at twilight is the Passover to Jehovah." It can also be rendered “between the two evenings.” Meal was to conclude when the the Sun sat or at Suindown. (top of sun disappears and sinks below the horizon) If the entire meal was not consumed, what was left over must be burned that night before morning. AS the Last Supper (Passover Meal) was concluding, Jesus was reclining at the table with the 12 disciples.  While they were eating, he said: “Truly I say to you, one of you will betray me.” (Matthew 26:20-21) Therefore, the event that concluded the Last Passover Meal was the dismissal of an unfaithful apostle. Jesus answered: “It is the one to whom I will give the piece of bread that I dip.” So after dipping the bread, he took it and gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.  After Judas took the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. So Jesus said to him: “What you are doing, do it more quickly.” (John 13:26-28) “So after he received the piece of bread, he went out immediately. And it was night.” (John 13:30) After dismissing the betrayer from the midst of the Faithful Disciples, Jesus instituted a new teaching for His Faithful Followers. Notice, the whole world wasn’t invited, but those who proved to be faithful and trustworthy up to this point. Since the founding of the Christian Congregation on Pentecost 33 CE, Christians have been commemorating the death of Jesus Christ every Nisan 14th. With one simple command, his faithful sheep “Keep doing this in remembrance of me.” (Luke 22:19) Share this Post on your social media and Save a Life. It is the memorial that has been commemorated afer Sundown since 33 CE.

Hell (“Sheol” and “Hades” in the Bible’s original languages) is simply the grave, not a place of fiery torment. Why not read more about it? PS... My Personal Story What is it like to die? I first learned about death through a Bible Study. After learning the truth about death and that death is the last enemy that will be conquered, I wanted to learn more. Here’s a few scriptures that may give you some Relief and Comfort. “For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing at all, nor do they have any more reward, because all memory of them is forgotten.” (Ecclesiastes 9:5) My Catholic upbringing always taught me that hell was an eternal place of torment and inescapable. This religious teaching never sat well with me. I could never figure out why the God of Love would do such a thing. Then at my Bible Study, I came across this scripture, “hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.” (Rev 20:13) This blew my mind because it connected the dots for me. See, the priests would take money from the parishioners to pray for their dead loved ones, telling us this might get them out of hell. All the while, preaching that hell is ETERNAL. Did they know something I didn’t, I wondered? This was nothing but a ponzi scheme. Other scriptures that gave me Relief and Comfort is the good news about the Resurrection. “And I have hope toward God, which hope these men also look forward to, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.” (Acts 24:15) I was elated to learn this about my loved ones that have passed in death. Then Jesus Christ told his followers, “Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice  and come out” (John 5:28)

Yes.... Nisan 14th.. From (Thursday after Sundown to Friday sundown.....) Nice way to put it!

Nope. Nisan 14th, the 1st Day conculded on Friday Evening with Sundown ushering in the Second Day that Jesus was in the Grave. That's why they hurried to bury Jesus. The time Jesus was dead was a 40 hour period that cover 'parts of three days'. However, one should be mindful that the Jewish Day began on Sundown, this is in regards to Creation at "And there was evening and there was morning, a first day." (Genesis 1:5) The Sunset during this time period was around 7:12 pm. It varies back forth over time but is very stable. I'm using a round off time of 7 pm for simplicity sake. Nisan 14, 33 CE - 1st Day - Thursday at Sundown from 7:00 pm to Friday at Sundown to 7:00 pm Jesus was put to death at approximately 3:00 pm that Friday afternoon on Nisan 14th. That's 4 hours.
