There are many things that are understood by Jehovah’s Witnesses at this time that are not true, we can certainly agree on that. But there are things that Jehovah’s Witnesses teach that are true, and are not taught by many other religions, otherwise we would not even bother to talk about them at all, there would be nothing to talk about, like Protestants, Baptist, Methodist, Pentecostals, Catholics. There is nothing there to discuss. But the Bible is very clear, man will live on this earth forever. The earth will remain forever. There is a small group of people that will be taken from the earth to rule as kings and priest with Christ for 1000 years. There are lots and lots of arguments over this number that is mentioned in Revelations, some say it is a literal number, some say it is a figurative number. But ultimately, number aside, it is God who says where we live, not us. And the positions in heaven are assigned seating, no one can choose to go there, but they can certainly live a life that would guarantee that they would never get there.The Bible also speaks of a resurrection, if when a person dies, they go to heaven or hell immediately, there can be no resurrection. The Bible teaches that there are two resurrections, save for those that the apostles performed in the first century. The Churches teach that when a person dies they go to heaven or hell immediately. There are only two religions that I know of that teach that when people die, they return to the dust and await a resurrection back to life and that is Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Bible Students of Pennsylvania. The Bible speaks of both the righteous and the unrighteous being resurrected. If those that go to heaven are to serve as kings and priest over the earth, and are given immortality, then any reasonable person would realize that unrighteous persons do not inherit the heavenly kingdom, but rather a chance to live on earth. Jehovah’s Witnesses do not teach, despite what some think, that they are the only ones who will inherit gods kingdom, people will be brought back to life who never knew God at all, and didn’t spend one hour in the field service and never turned in their time. Now, I am talking here about the real Jehovah’s Witnesses, not the fake ones, not those of the weed class. Children do not go to heaven, because they have not had sufficient time or maturity to prove themselves faithful all the way to death, nor have they had the time to gain enough experience living in Satan’s world to make them good kings, priest, and judges over those that have. Children who have died will be brought back to life on earth. The only person who has lived on this earth, and now resides in heaven having been resurrected by God, is Jesus Christ. Members of those who will rule over mankind have not been resurrected yet, that happens when Christ returns and they join in with him, in bringing Satan’s system to an end. The bible does say that the heavenly class are resurrected when Christ returns, but the rest of the dead did not come back to life until the 1000 years have ended, there is some controversy among religions as to the meaning of this. Here is what I think. I think that the meaning that they come to life after the thousand years have ended means that they have been led to that symbolic river of life and drank from it, but I believe that the resurrection will begin after the earth has been cleared of debris from the world war and the great tribulation, so that the words of Christ will be true, “Truly I tell you today, you will be with me in paradise” I don’t think that God is going to resurrect people into a mess, they have forever to live, there is no hurry. I believe that it makes perfect sense to bring people back in waves according to chronological order, so that they have their friends and family who lived with them, in their time, to welcome them back, and I think it might happen with the last to die first to be resurrected, meaning that the person who dies today will be resurrected tomorrow, and the person that dies 6,000 years ago is resurrected last, let’s just say for example, but I am sure, that however God wants to bring them back is OK with the rest of us. . The Bible does speak of different resurrections happening at different times, Paul also spoke of a resurrection procedure. About the protection of Gods people, they will be. At the time when the great tribulation starts, mankind will be separated, that is the time when the sheep and the goats are separated, not now, and not since 1914. We are going to have a World War III it will most likely be between England, Germany, Israel, America, the Western nations against Russia, China, Iran, I dare say nuclear weapons will be used because Revelations says that God gives them permission to kill one third of earths inhabitants. that is about 3 Billion people. Out of this war will come an 8th king, a one world government, then a one world religion. Those who take sides with this one world government and this one world religion will receive the mark of the wild beast, this one world government, and will have rejected Gods Kingdom and Christ. Religions will have been done away with in all of that mess, including Jehovah’s Witnesses. Those from among Jehovah’s Witnesses, and those from among the nations who choose God’s Kingdom at that time, instead of a group of men claiming to be the faithful and discreet slave, the organization, will somehow, someway be segregated from the people who accept the mark of the wild beast, who join in that one world government, one world religion.Wherever those people are gathered together, God will protect them. The bible says that there is a great crowd of people who come out of the great tribulation and stand before God which no man was able to number. The Bible also says that they will put some of us to death, but not all of us, so a person must resolve in his mind and his heart, that he is going to remain faithful to God, all the way to death, before that time comes. The reason that I try so hard to wake people up is because they have before right this minute and the time this all starts to take their stand, to make up their minds, but to do that, they have to know things in their hearts, they have to know God in their hearts, in the time of Noah, when the rain started, God closed the Ark door, not Noah, God closed that door. Christ said, “Just as in the days of Noah, they will take no note” meaning they will not wake up. When the great tribulation starts, it is too late, When World War III starts, it is too late, when the dollar collapses, the great tribulation begins which will lead to World War III . From start to finish is 3 and one half years, from the beginning of the great tribulation to the arrival of Christ. I hope this helps.
Christians believe that God sent Christ to earth to redeem mankind, and give mankind some examples of how life will be under his rulership, he was a King willing to die for his subjects. It is not appropriate to go beyond the things written in the Scriptures, but I feel compelled to present this concept. Jesus Christ was the firstborn of God’s creation, the very first thing that God made was Christ, someone for Jehovah to share his life, his love with. This powerful person, Jehovah sent to earth to teach man about him, and some of his plans for heaven, and earth. Jesus, the first born of Jehovah, who sat beside his Father, and through the power and authority granted to him by his Father, he carried out his will toward all creation, including this earth, all life upon it, and man. If Jesus can be sent by assignment to this earth to instruct mankind, why do we assume that he is the only one that Jehovah can send to earth to aid mankind ? Did we not read of Angels coming to earth as well ? If a small number bought from among mankind, receive a heavenly calling to serve as Kings and Priest along side of Christ, what is to prevent Jehovah from also sending them among man, to teach them the laws of God face to face ?
