Jehovah’s Witnesses, Armageddon and Second Death, Part 6

Jehovah’s Witnesses, Armageddon and Second Death, Part 6

Comments 0 Comment

In our previous post we had suggested several questions which we believe that when rightfully understood will shed further light upon our subject, that subject of course being the thought purposed by the Society, that those who perish in the final climatic end of the great time of trouble, Armageddon suffer the final demise of the wicked, Second Death. However as of yet not one shred of Scriptural evidence has been produced to support this Witness doctrine, we therefore must…

As was stated earlier, this discussion took place sometime back on another forum in which several x-Jehovah’s Witnesses as well as some active members who had joined the Bible Students forum were asked to explain the Societies teaching that those who perish during the great time of trouble (specifically Armageddon) will have been adjudged to be worthy of Second Death. Most of what we received was merely hear say, and a few vein attempts at taking scripture out of context…

Having in our last post seen the general view on this issue as stated by the Society we now would like to see what Victor had to say. Victor states: “The war of Armageddon will cleanse the earth of all corruption and wickedness and open the way for a righteous new system of things under the rule of God’s Messianic Kingdom. (Isa 11:4, 5) Instead of being a frightening cataclysmic end, Armageddon will signal a happy beginning for righteous individuals,…

Before we begin our reply in regards to this subject we should first like to note some of what the Society has to say on the issue. The following was taken from the website: Facts About Jehovah’s Witnesses Watchtower Development Imagine for a second that Watchtower is not the true religion. As a Jehovah’s Witness, do you think it would be fair that God is going to destroy you, because circumstances led you to being involved with the wrong religion?…

Similar to our study which we did on the differences between the beliefs and interpretation of scripture between Bible Students and Seventh Day Adventist there exist the same in respects to Bible Students and Jehovah’s Witnesses. Although both groups are commonly perceived to be one in the same because of their association with Pastor Charles Russell and because they share a few similar beliefs in regards to the fundamentals or first principal doctrines of the Word of God, the “milk…

Before we begin this discussion, we should first like to clear up a common misconception, one which has been fostered no less by the Jehovah’s Witnesses themselves, it involves who the founder of the organization was and what teachings or materials the organization uses in their studies and interpretation of the scriptures. “Contrary to what is generally propagated by both orthodoxy and the JW’s themselves, Pastor Russell WAS NOT the founder of this religious group. He was never associated with…

NEITHER PRIESTS NOR LEVITES HAD INHERITANCE IN THE LAND “In the type of the Priesthood, and the Levites, Aaron and his sons constituted the Priesthood, and only these had to do with the offering on the Day of Atonement, and only these had special rights and privileges. Neither Priests nor Levites, however, had any inheritance in the land with the others. (Num. 18:20; Deut. 18:1, 2). Thus, again was shown the fact that this Great Company, represented by the Levites,…

THOSE WHO WILL HAVE THEIR PORTION WITH THE HYPOCRITES “The Foolish Virgins, as the Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins shows us, will finally learn the way. They will get the oil and will trim their lamps. In other words, they will receive a larger measure of the holy Spirit (that which they previously lacked), represented by the oil, and will have clearer enlightenment from the Word of God, represented by the lamp. They will trim their lamps (search…

“Aside from the special class of over-comers, the “more than conquerors,” as the Apostle calls them, those who voluntarily and willingly lay down their lives, presenting their bodies living sacrifices, and carrying out that consecration to sacrifice–aside from these, there is a large number of consecrated people of God. We do not know their number, which has not been predestinated, as is shown in Revelation–“After these things…” (that is after John’s having seen the predestinated number of 144,000 who would…

Revelation Chapter 14 VERSE 4 continued “These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These were redeemed from among men, being first fruits to God and to the Lamb.” In our previous post we learned just who these “women” were, but now the question is asked: At what point does this defilement begin? It occurs after the Lord’s people find themselves in such…
