Dionna-

Hi, how are you this beautiful day!

There is an article that was moved into forum #1 called Three (3) Simple Statements Of Belief -- What Do You Think? that I would like for you to have a look at. I know you've seen this article before, but it's been changed a little bit. This is the LWF version of the one you read on CrossingEuphrates.com. This article contains a link to another article entitled A BIG MISTAKE MADE BY ALL MANKIND which has added information that I'd like you to study over. I think you will find this material quite intriguing as well as refreshing.

After you've studied this article, I'd like to have your personal reaction to it. Also, because the second article is a color-coded article, it has review questions at the end as well.

Here's the link to the first article:

Three (3) Simple Statements Of Belief -- What Do You Think?

Agape,

Hi Dionna,

Good morning!

So after reading the article: One Big Mistake Made By All Mankind,
what would you say is today, the "Sacred Secret" of God, that is unrevealed to mankind as of yet? (Rev. 10:7)

Any thoughts...

agape,

Littleleslie

The truth of who the SEED really represents. I t is still somewhat confusing to me. So I am still studying and rereading.

some artilcles have a link for more information , but when I click on them they are not accessable.

No problem...that's where we come in as instructors at LWF.

In short, the article is making the point that most people think Jesus was the "seed" of God, spoken of in the Garden of Eden.

But, the real challenge was not if Jesus could come down from heaven and live as a perfect man and start God's Kingdom of Righteousness off on earth, using the apostles at Pentecost. No that wasn't it at all.

No, but Jehovah made the challenge he could use IMPERFECT PEOPLE...start a kingdom government out of SINNERS, IMPERFECT PEOPLE...can you believe it. Yes, that was the real challenge that Jehovah spoke to Satan about in the Garden of Eden. Jehovah purposed to restore the earthly kingdom that Adam had in the Garden, with another earthly kingdom, using IMPERFECT PEOPLE...using sinners.

That was the great Sacred Secret of God. Jehovah could bring about righteousness, using imperfect people...primarily one particular individual...the MDS or Chieftain...the Scapegoat. -- Lev. 16:10; Eze. 44:1-3

Okay, how does that sound?

agape,

Sounds good and makes a lot of sense to me since there are no perfect ones here today. It makes sense that it is what Jehovah would do.

Dionna-

Good! It makes sense to you that Jehovah would use us imperfect ones...

So tell me, what do you think of the whole concept of Jehovah's Kingdom being earthly, and actually being made up of some of his people...such as you! What do you feel about the prospect of you being a "king and priest" in Jehovah's kingdom?

(Revelation 5:10) 10 and you made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God, and they are to rule as kings over the earth.”

If you have some other Bibles other than the NWT, check this scripture because this is one of the verses that WT has slaughtered! You'd be surprised at what this verse is supposed to say! Let me know what you find on this.

So, tell me what you think of you being a part of this kingdom?

Agape,

Littleleslie

To tell you the truth I think the JWs have slaughtered a lot of scriptures.

About me, Im not sure. How could I be that good??? I am not special, and I think one would have to be.

Well, at least you are willing to take the 90-Day Bible course and be taught. Other JWs are not willing to do this, and that makes you different.

Isaiah 54:13 says, all of God's Sons are willing to be taught by Jehovah. So that makes you special...you are willing to be taught by Jehovah and accept His "Living, Healing Waters."

Oh BTW, Forums #8 thru #12 are now open to you...enjoy!

Oh yes, I am sick of not knowing the real truth. I like being taught with love and kindness, especially when I ask a question. Ive noticed that with other posters when they ask a question. thank all of you! :guys

And you are quite welcome, Dionna. We are glad we could be of assistance. And thanks for the compliment!

Hi Dionna,

You are progressing well in your studies.

Now at this point, you will begin to notice the "waters" are getting a little deeper as you go forward in the bible study program.

For example in this section of information that you are to cover, you will find an excellent article discussing the coming "prophet" that God sends to us (Modern Day "Israel" or Jehovah's Witnesses) in the last days. This is the very first article on LWF that will introduce you to the idea of a coming prophet from God, in our day called "Elijah," the Modern Day "Servant" of Isa. 49, and the "Chieftain" of Eze. 44 as God's Promised Abrahamic "Seed." -- Genesis 3:15

Please note it is an important article and so is a color-coded one that has questions for review at the end of it.

Here is the link:

Who Will Prove To Be The Last Prophet That God Sends?

If you have any questions after covering it, just let me know.

Enjoy!

Hi Dionna-

How are you doing in digesting the article Who Will Prove To Be The Last Prophet That God Sends? Just wondering if you're understand it or if you have any questions about it.

Ok, that's all...

Agape,

Hello,
Yes I understand what is written now. I am waiting for the next lesson.
I really like the question and answer part at the end of some of the essays. It makes everything much more easier to understand.

Okay...great!

So here is the next article up for analysis. It is linked to another article too, which has been made available for you to consider. Here is the link:

The article is entitled: The "Temple of God" Under Examination Today

Enjoy!
