'The perfect human being is all human beings put together, it is a collective, it is all of us together that make perfection' - Socrates
And you must take the Levites for me - I am Jehovah - in place of all the firstborn among the sons of Israel, and the domestic animals of the Levites in place of all the firstborn among the domestic animals of the sons of Israel (Numbers 3:41).
Take the Levites in place of all the firstborn among the sons of Israel, and the domestic animals of the Levites in place of their domestic animals, and the Levites must become mine. I am Jehovah (Numbers 3:45).
The greater meaning of these verses must apply to the New Passover. The sons of Israel are the JW saints and the domestic animals are the unsanctified JWs.
It is like Jehovah said through Isaiah:
For I am Jehovah your God, the holy one of Israel your Saviour. I have given Egypt as a ransom for you, Ethiopia and Seba in place of you. Owing to the fact that you have been precious in my eyes, you have been considered honourable, and I myself have loved you. And I shall give earthling man in place of you, and national groups in place of your soul (Isaiah 43:4).
Lots of ransoms.
1 Now in those days a decree went forth from Caesar Augustus for all the inhabited earth to be registered;
2 this first registration took place when Quirinius was governor of Syria;
3 and all people went travelling to be registered, each one to his own city.
4 Of course, Joseph [AOL,
the angel of Laodicea, promised a congregation by Revelation 3] also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to David's city, which is called Bethlehem, because of his being a member of the house and family of David,
5 to get registered with Mary [The Laodicean church], who had been given him in marriage as promised, at present heavy with child.
6 While they were there, the days came to the full for her to give birth.
7 And she gave birth to her son, the firstborn [Manasseh,
the 100 month Manasseh Proselyte 2NC call from 1999Tebbeth21 to 2004Tebbeth21 to those with a 3EC or 4EC water baptism. The 5 years of the call are 5x of being, miserable pitiable poor blind and naked], and she bound him with cloth bands [the GNS keeps the silver money under a cloth]
and laid him in a manger [not a physical congregation such as Laodicea, this is symbolizing the 2NC saints being misclassified as cattle, unsanctified Christians, by the blind 144,000 doctrine of the WTBTS].
8 There were also in that same country shepherds living out of doors and keeping watches in the night over their flocks [Laodicean elders, outside the JW temple, watching by night, in a hidden way].
9 And suddenly Jehovah's angel stood by them [AOP,
the Angel of Philadelphia], and Jehovah's glory gleamed around them [LW understandings], and they became very fearful.
10 But the angel said to them: Have no fear, for, look! I am declaring to you good news of a great joy that all the people will have,
11 because there was born to you today a Saviour, who is Christ [the] Lord, in David's city [This the 1NC reserves. They will save with the gifts of the spirit and with human mediated spirit baptism].
12 And this is a sign for you: You will find an infant bound in cloth bands and lying in a manger [the infant is generic for both the 2NC saints and the 1NC reserves].
13 And suddenly there came to be with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army [?], praising God and saying:
14 Glory in the heights above to God, and upon earth peace among men of goodwill.
15 So when the angels had departed from them into heaven [FDS4], the shepherds began saying to one another: Let us by all means go clear to Bethlehem and see this thing that has taken place, which Jehovah has made known to us.
16 And they went with haste and found Mary as well as Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger.
17 When they saw it, they made known the saying that had been spoken to them concerning this young child.
18 And all that heard marvelled over the things told them by the shepherds,
19 but Mary began to preserve all these sayings, drawing conclusions in her heart.
20 Then the shepherds went back, glorifying and praising God for all the things they heard and saw, just as these had been told them (Luke 2).
The first thing to realise is that the true church has a fixed number of rooms at the inn, 144,000 in fact. Only the JWs and JW related churches have this understanding. The Catholics have an indefinite number of rooms at the inn.
Secondly both Jesus (the 1NC reserves) and the 2NC saints are put not in the inn but in the manger, in other words they are misclassified as domestic animals,
rather than a humans, as unsanctified brothers rather than as saints. This is done by Mary who is the Laodiceans.
