    I love all people everywhere I don't care what religion they belong to! I don't judge anyone! If you want me to look up what the Bible says about the 144,000 I can look up the scriptures that apply? :) 💖 I just look for scriptures that sound important and try my best to do what it says.

    I converted to Jehovah's Witnesses

    I try my best to think and believe in such a way that the Holy Scriptures help me direct my thinking and help me form my belief. I do have an opinion of course, but I kind of set it to the side. And form my line of reasoning collecting as many scriptures on the one subject. OupaPiet says the...

    I converted to Jehovah's Witnesses

    Yes these scriptures seem to conflict at first look, Jesus reveals in one scripture that his kingdom is not part of this world, but then another time says to pray for: "thy Kingdom Come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven" 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most...
