Do you think we were all born yesterday?
>None of them felt that their judgment with God was dependent upon becoming Jehovah’s Witnesses, at least I never taught or encouraged that feeling. They all were taught that God would judge them based upon their heart condition reflecting faith in Jesus’ sacrifice.
Ultimately yes, this is correct but ONLY IF THEY ARE ASSOCIATED WITH JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES at the time armageddon occurs or if they are resurected.
I know what I have heard and experienced since I was a toddler. Your 'kinder, gentler' contention is just hogwash!
A lot of hand waving and fog making to ignore the scriptures I fed you two posts back. I do not deny that some good doesn't come out of the religion, but unless one needs TO BE TOLD WHAT TO THINK AND DO, or lacks any confidence in their own abilities, the religion is destructive and a cult.
You just need to face your own fears instead of defending the lie.
