@kjw47,
Quote: All the apostles died-proving 100% its you in error of false reasoning and the JW,s are correct.
Wrong again kiddo.
Of course, all the apostles died as must all the descendants of Adam, even Jesus the descendant of King David died, See Luke 1, 32 .
Revelation 20, 4; Then I saw thrones, and those who sat on them were given the power to judge. I also saw the souls of those who had been executed because they had proclaimed the truth that Jesus revealed and the word of God. (These had come through the great tribulation) They had not worshipped the beast or its image, nor had they received the mark of the beast on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and ruled as kings with Christ for a thousand years. (The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were over.)
You said in a previous post in this thread, that the separating of the sheep and goats occurs during the tribulation once the remaining little flock are changed the twinkling of an eye and all 144,000 sit on thrones beside Jesus. Jesus sat on his throne here at Rev 6:2=the presence.
So make your mind up kid, were they who reign as Kings with Christ, translated as you say, or were they resurrected from the world of the dead as the Word of God says.
For the Holy Scriptures reveal that those who rule as kings with Jesus, for the thousand years Sabbath, were resurrected from the dead. They came to life and ruled as kings with Christ for a thousand years. (The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were over.) The rest of the dead came to life after the thousand years Sabbath was over and were then separated by the Lord our saviour as a shepherd divides the sheep from the goats.
CORINTHIANS 15, 24; After the thousand years are over, Jesus will hand over the kingdom to the Lord God our saviour. FOR Jesus must rule until God defeats all enemies and puts them under his feet, etc
1 CORINTHIANS 15, 21; For just as death came by means of a
MAN, in the same way the rising from death comes by means of a
MAN.
Act 17: 31; For he (The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.) has fixed a day (The great Sabbath) in which he will judge the whole world with justice by means of a
MAN he has
CHOSEN. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising that
MAN from death.
