   That has nothing to do with the subject at hand, and the JW does not preach   
   it. They do not even know what it is all about.

   There is your deception, as He will return and stated it quite clearly. Also   
   Ezekiel described his Temple in Jerusalem, where he will rule on earth for a   
   thousand years. The phrase "no more" did not men ever again,...   
      
   Zec 12:10   
      
   10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of   
   Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon   
   me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for   
   his onlyson, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness   
   forhis firstborn.   
      
   “And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they   
   pierced.” (Joh 19:37)   
      
   “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. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the   
   Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” (Rev   
   1:7-8)   
      
   This is what the scripture says, yet you deny it.
