Snide remarks aside, I honestly believe you're capable of having a civil conversation if you put your mind to it.
I'd hate to think that my opinion of you is unsubstantiated.
Well, they say "silence is golden." Are you thinking about some sort of brilliant retort or just fell asleep?
That was a good choice for you to make dear.
Meshak, do you have any questions about Madism? After all, this thread is your creation and I'm willing to give you some well thought out answers.
Perhaps Andyc needs a little rest? Perhaps he drew a blank?
Well, it looks as if we share a common bond. After all, you're here as well, aren't ya?
More the reason why you and I should discuss the OP? Am I correct?
Actually, it was a derogatory term. They should be crucified too.

Meshak is wrong. However, those who laid the foundation were killed, even Paul.
Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Jesus' words were for the entire planet. It was foretold since Moses that the coming Messiah would bless ALL of the nations. (Genesis 12:3; 18:18)
Why did Jesus come in the first place? To restore to the planet and the human race what God set in motion with Adam and the Garden of Eden.

What on earth does that mean? Sheesh! Anyway, the Kingdom of God is a real GOVERNMENT, and it is evident by what Isaiah, Daniel, and Jesus himself said.
Jesus told his Apostles that they would "sit on thrones," and the mother of two of them asked for her sons to sit on his left and right when the Kingdom was established. (Matt.19:28; 20:21) Doesn't sound like something WITHIN any human being.
ISAIAH: "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and THE GOVERNMENT shall be upon his shoulder." (Isaiah 9:6, KJV)
DANIEL: "And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a Kingdom which shall never be destroyed...and it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever." (Daniel 2:44, KJV)
It doesn't really look like "allegorical/symbolic teaching" does it?

No sir. Israel had the first chance to be the light of the world, but they blew it when they rejected Jesus. He said to them: "The Kingdom of God shall be TAKEN FROM YOU, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof." (Matt.21:43, KJV) After the witness to Israel was completed, 3 1/2 years after Jesus' death & resurrection, the witness went out to the Gentiles, and subsequently THE CHRISTIAN CONGREGATION BECAME THE "NATION" BRINGING FORTH KINGDOM FRUITS.
Peter stated this in a letter to several Asian congregations: "But YE are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, AN HOLY NATION, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: which in time past were not a people, but ARE NOW THE PEOPLE OF GOD." (I Peter 2:9,10, KJV)
You are way behind in understanding.
I cannot imagine anybody being more behind in understanding than a member of a cult such as Jehovah Witness? I realize you're stuck in that cult at this point in your life, however, there's still hope for you as long as you have blood surging through your body and oxygen in your lungs.

That is right.
Where as you are only right once in a while. I was mocking you.
