    Snappy .. 🙂 We did snappy already.

    The children of Jacob, all the 12 tribes were called by name.
    If they had just said children of Israel, then you could have speculated using Pauls definition of a Jew is one who is one inwardly and concluded that the 144,000 could be anyone. Not in the this case. They are all natural born Jews.

    5 Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.
    6 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand.
    7 Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand.
    8 Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.

    Read over the enter thread. It's all there. If you seriously want to learn that would be great but I'm not sure that's your motive...

    I've read over the thread a couple of times. It takes some twists and turns.

    I am open to hear your belief and to examine the Scriptures like the Bereans who were more noble, to see if these things were so.

    But you have to expect that I could possibly point out the reasons to what extent I agree and to what extent I might not.

    If you don't want to be grilled perhaps you better not discuss it with me.

    You can leave religions. But it is not so easy to have religion leave you.

    In some cases you end up with a non-religion kind of religion.

    Huh? You don't think the Pilgrims didn't considered themselves as leaving religion?

    You don't think the Anabaptists didn't think of themselves as leaving religion.

    You don't think David Koresh didn't think he was leading his flock out of religion ?

    I bet you he did. I bet he thought he was leaving religion behind and going on with God.

    My only point is that "religion" is really something in our blood so to speak. You may leave her. She won't leave you that easily.

    But it can be done.

    As far as I can see Rajk999,don't you share with the Jehovah's Witness their most basic tenet ?

    That is that Jesus is not Jehovah God come in the flesh. I thought that was one of your core beliefs also.

    Im not into groups or their tenets.
    Im into what Christ taught
    Are you suggesting that I should also believe that the JWs are the 144,000 Jews ?

    Not at all!

    I am pointing out that in the past you have sure shown yourself to embrace JW's cherished heresy of denying that Jesus is Jehovah God.

    They're repulsed by the teaching of a Trinity. You too. They don't believe that the Word was the same God that He was with. I think you share this polytheistic view of two gods in John 1:1.

    They also reject eternal perdition. You do too. You're like them in these ways.
