I need Jehovah's Witnesses feed back.Because I always think I am interpreting it right.But am wrong.
If there are 144,000 spirit anointed people who have a heavenly hope, and a great crowd of people who have another hope of everlasting life on paradise earth, why does Paul say that there is only ONE hope (Eph 4:4), instead of two?
I got this from here: Interactive Bible Home Page www.bible.ca
Stumper questions Jehovah's Witnesses do not like to be asked!
It is question number 40.
I got this from the King James version of the bible. -
Revelation Writing a Proof of God?
This is a discussion on how the Message of God has come to Humanity.
I think we have been gifted a proof of God in a way that many have not yet heard about, so are also yet to consider its value.
Both he Bab and Baha'u'llah revealed their messages in the same way. This ability was passed on to Abdul'baha (but not as a Messenger).
I will start the discussion with Baha'u'llah, who's Revelation came via both the Persian and Arabic Languages.

Materialist and Spiritualist
could there be a middle ground between spiritualism and materialism? -
Atheists and Agnostics
can an atheist be both atheist and agnostic?

There is no evidence for God, so why do you believe?
I’ve been reading through a couple of threads, and I see that it is said that there is no evidence for a god, it’s an unfalsifiable idea. We all agree on this? If you don’t, care to explain the evidence there is for god?
I’m in agreement. I used to believe my personal experiences to be subjective evidence for god, but I know now that’s not the case. I am not a theist anymore because I recognize I was a Christian thanks almost completely to my environment. That’s why I believed. I was brought... -
I hate to do this, but...
Well, now that Afghanistan is nearing food insecurity for millions, the Taliban has announced their solution to the nation's problems:
All women are now going to be required (again) to be covered from head-to-toe out of doors.
It's easy to see how this will feed millions, isn't it?
Religious thinking at it's most noble and admirable. -
Pope Francis and LGBT people
This is why I like Pope Francis. I don't have to agree with all of his theology to appreciate his attitude in some key areas:
Pope to LGBT Catholics: 'God is Father who does not disown any of his children' - Vatican News
Outreach: What would you say is the most important thing for LGBT people to know about God?
Pope Francis: God is Father and he does not disown any of his children. And “the style” of God is “closeness, mercy and tenderness.” Along this path you will find God.

Behavior and Belief
if a self-serving type changes it's belief system, but not their behavior, has anything really changed except self's appearance? -
Six Questions about the Soul
1. What is a soul?
2. Who (and/or what) has a soul?
3. Why would a soul want a body?
4. What does a soul actually do?
5. If the soul is "immaterial", how does it communicate with the material brain?
6. If you had no soul, how would you be different? -
What, why and when about "the soul?"
There is another thread, started just today, that asks "when does the soul enter the body?" Here's the link: When does the soul enter the body?
But doesn't this bring up a question? "What the heck is a soul, and what was it doing before it decided to enter a body?" Well, it may not for you, but it certainly does for me.
So rather than disturb that other thread, I thought I'd start on on this subject alone:
"What is a soul, why and when does it 'enter the body,' and what was it doing...
