That the Bible points to Jesus, and from the beginning when sin entered the
world,...
“And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and
her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.” (Gen

Speaking of Jesus.

Sheol, the Bible says is the pit, Hell, Hades.
“For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not
consumed.” (Mal 3:6)
The righteous of Israel went to paradise.

Yes, and the JW's do not give it unless it is shaded.

“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship
the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship
him.” (Joh 4:23)
Yes, and the JW's cannot do as that scripture says. See Romans 8:9-10.
