question for Jehovah's Witnesses?

did you guys know that Rastafari also have theories about the biblical 144,000 ?.

maybe you could get together to talk about it.

it'd help enormously if you didn't try to preach at them relentlessly right from the get-go,if you actually interacted with each other it would be so much better.

oh and Rastas smoke weed.

    I'm sure the JWs aren't the only group who teach the 144,000 mentioned in (Rev 7:4-8) are actually members of there religion. There are probably similar interpretations from other religions claiming the 144,000 applies to them.

    If you want to refute these nutty claims from JWs and others that the 144,000 is about them -- then just go to the bible to expose them.

    The 144,000 men (not woman) are all identified as being members of the 12 tribes of Israel in (Rev 7:4-8) -- if they are members of the 12 tribes of Israel then how can they be members of the watchtower society or the Rastas etc ?

    Also in (Rev 14:1-4) these 144,000 Jewish men are all unmarried and witnesses for Jesus Christ during the tribulation period -- not witnesses for the watchtower or Rasta religions !

    Enough said !
