Jesus and the Archangel Michael are the same person.

Hebrews 1:3-4 The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. 4 So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.

Jesus and the Archangel Michael are the same person.

Heaven is full?!

Revelation 7:4 Then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel. Bad news: In 1935 the 144,000 spots in heaven were filled.

Good news: 1) If you’re good, you will live in heaven on earth.

Good news: 2) If you’re not good, there is no hell, you are annihilated.

Hebrews 1:6 (NWT) But when he again brings his Firstborn into the inhabited earth, he says: “And let all God’s angels do obeisance to him.”

Hebrews 1:6 (NIV) And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God’s angels worship him.”Are you wasting your time with a JW at your door?

JW’s only want to argue with me!

To a Jehovah’s Witness, a church is just as foreign as a Hindu temple. In his mind a church is a demon-infested building surmounted by a pagan symbol (the cross)...filled with immoral people who worship a three-headed false god (the Trinity) and salute an idol made of cloth (the national flag).
