Why do the Jehovah's Witnesses put out a false statement as to when Jesus' second coming ocurred?

Question

The Jehovah's Witnesses have no prove of this happening.
Because when jesus comes back , every eye will see him.
I dont need any dates as when Jesus will come back, because
no one knows that.

When a person dies, the soul leaves the body, and goes to Heaven or Hell.

When Jesus comes back every eye
will him, even the ones who pierced his
side. If you dont believe this, then you
dont believe the Bible, nor God.

When Jesus comes back every eye will
see him, even the ones who pierced
his side. If you dont believe this, you
dont believe the Bible, nor God.

If You was to die today, you would go
to Heaven or Hell. When your body dies
your soul goes back to God who gave
it.

REVELATION 1:7
Behold, he cometh with clouds: and
every eye shall see him and they also
which pierced him: and all kindreds
of the earth shall wail because of him.
Even so, Amen.

Lover of,
You error not knowing the scripture.
When Jesus comes back, I dont think
anyone will kill him. Go ahead and
live in ignorance.

janet l,
What I do know is, The second coming
of Christ has not yet ocurred.

There is not need to argue about
something that has not happened yet.

Answer 1

While the premise of this "question" is itself false, what is true is that Jehovah's Witnesses have never pretended that they are infallible or inspired. Jehovah's Witnesses have never pretended that they experience miraculous messages from God or Christ. For more than a century, Jehovah's Witnesses have always presented their suppositions as the result of sincere bible research, rather than as "predictions" or "prophesying".

Interestingly, however, even those Christians who did enjoy direct communication from heaven at times came to wrong conclusions; these wrong conclusions were even communicated "out among the brothers"!

For example, the apostle Peter enjoyed remarkable privileges in the early congregation, but it seems that he was the source of an incorrect teaching about the apostle John that was not formally corrected until several DECADES had passed, and John himself finally wrote his gospel about 98 C.E.

(John 21:21-23) Peter said to Jesus: “Lord, what will this man do [that is, the apostle John]?” Jesus said to him: “If it is my will for him to remain until I come, of what concern is that to you? You continue following me.” In consequence, this saying went out among the brothers, that [the apostle John] would not die. However, Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but: “If it is my will for him to remain until I come, of what concern is that to you?”


Jehovah's Witnesses apply the term "prophet" only in a very limited sense to themselves as a religion, not to individuals. The Scriptures indicate that whenever Jehovah purposes to execute judgment upon a people, he always makes arrangement for a 'prophet's work' as a warning. Their self-description as a "prophet" (in this limited sense) does not indicate special inspired knowledge or foreknowledge, but their willingness to perform Christ's assigned warning work in our day leading up to Armageddon.

What group is working harder than Jehovah's Witnesses to preach God's message globally (as Noah did before the Deluge)?

(Amos 3:7) For the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will not do a thing unless he has revealed his confidential matter to his servants the prophets.

(2 Peter 2:5) Noah, a preacher of righteousness...

(Matthew 24:14) And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come.

Answer 2

Do you believe that if you died today you go to heaven? if yes the n you are wrong because that will happen when the second coming of Jesus (1 Thessal. 4:16) , then why you say a lie that as soon as you died you go to heaven?

If Jesus do not had his second presence (not the armaggedon because that is the date that nobody knows are two different events) then explain why all the propheccies of Matthew 24 and 2 Timothy 3 and Revelation 17 and 18 are already fulfilled?

Why every single JW take your KJV bible and prove you exactly the same that we believe? can you do the same with my NWT? why not? if you have the truth it doesn´t matter the bible you use if we are false then we only can do it with certain bible translation.

Don´t get confused the second presence or coming is not the armageddon, armagedon is at the end of the period of the tribulation and the second presence is what began the critical time according to Jesus in Matthew 24:4-24 read it and see the chapter 24 when Jesus said then the armageddon.

Answer 3

Do you communicate that if youin case you died at present you pass to heaven? If particular the n you're mistaken because of the fact the to have the means to take place whilst the 2nd coming of Jesus (one million Thessal. 4:sixteen) , then why you're saying a lie that as quickly as you died you pass to heaven? If Jesus do not had his 2nd presence (not the armaggedon because of the fact that it fairly is the date that no one is familiar with are 2 particular habitual) then clarify why each and every of the propheccies of Matthew 24 and a pair of Timothy 3 and Revelation 17 and 18 are already fulfilled? Why each and every single JW take your KJV bible and tutor you precisely the equivalent that we predict of? are you able to do the comparable with my NWT? Why not? once you have the certainty it doesn´t subject be counted the bible you make the main of if we are fake then we only can do it with particular bible translation. Don´t get perplexed the 2nd presence or coming should not be the armageddon, armagedon is on the tip of the era of the tribulation and the 2nd presence is what began the crucial time in retaining with Jesus in Matthew 24:4-24 learn it and word the financial ruin 24 whilst Jesus stated then the armageddon.

Answer 4

My experienced opinion tells me that it all fits together in their explanation of what the Bible means. They really don't know any better because many Bibles conflict with each other and there are even contradictions within the Bible so that nobody knows exactly what will happen or how. No one can prove that Jesus even exists. Don't lose heart, all is not lost if everything doesn't happen just the way we think it will. God is merciful, loving and supportive. He will not leave you stranded.

Answer 5

Okay, I might have misunderstood this, but I was under the impression that Jehovah's Witnesses believed the second coming "started" in 1914 but there is a "process" to it, so to speak and that Jesus will still yet return and every one will see Him. Thus I do not feel the Jehovah's Witnesses beliefs in any way contradict these verse. (Admittedly the Born Again Christian beliefs don't either.)

(If I'm wrong about this, someone please email me and correct me.)

I've got to say, I feel that there is a lot of bigotry on these forum. Look at how people try to answer for the Jehovah's Witnesses trying to put words into their mouths without making any attempt to actually understand them. I find this very wrong.

Answer 6

It is apart of satan's deception. If Christ is not coming back. Then what hope does mankind have. So, satan uses religions like the Jehovah's witnesses to lure people away from God's word.

Answer 7

Watching KNOCKING on PBS must have really scared you.

Now you don't really care what evidence there is, you just want to put on a "LOOK AT ME, I'M ANTI-JEHOVAH" show. The evidence is there, you know it, as every church does who acknowledge the prophesies of the last days are coming true.

Just you, along with Christendom like repeating the same mistake the Jews made nearly 2000 years ago, when every eye did behold and they still didn't believe, because they thought that with his coming, the end would take place and God's people (Israel) would be saved. I guess history does repeat itself, so you're in good company.

Answer 8

In this day and age of cable and satellite T.V.people still argue that it is not possible for every one to see him at the same time? No one will know the hour or the time of Jesus' second coming. And yes! It is more than possible for every to see him at the same time!

Answer 9

They want to seem like they have special knowledge. Same reason they kept trying to predict the end of the world. The yer they say Jesus came was the year of one of their old end of the world predictions, so when it didn't happen they said something else happened. Funny, they are still waiting for Jesus to come back. Where does it say he will come back again twice?

Read 2 John :7-11 , this includes Jehovah witnesses
