So it doesn't matter which country a JW lives in, it is not "their country". Our allegance is only for God's Kingdom ( that is why a JW will never salute any contries flag ) and it's this same Kingdom that will put an end to all red to the "few" JW's that have died from refusing blood. Why did you ignor it?
On that note of you never saluting any country's flag,
Didn't God choose a country?
He chose Israel and its people. So it could be said that
He favoured one people, one nation, over another.
Wasn't it only after the Jews rejected Him that he turned to
others? Gentiles? Non Jews?
If He establishes His Kingdom will it not show His banner?
The armies of Israel in the Old Testament had flags and banners.
