I have a question and I apologize in advance if it is not relevant.

 

In the case of the Anointed who are going to be raptured and therefore, according to what the Bible says and/or what we understand so far, must die: can we say that their death is not Adamic? They are not going to die because they are imperfect but because Jehovah himself is going to carry out their death and resurrection. When Jehovah gives death to the faithful, it is a guarantee that it will be gentle, necessarily.

 

Unless, as is defended by some, they benefit from the same miracle as the members of The Great Crowd. Nevertheless, this is not what the Bible seems to say.

 

This death, at this moment in human history, no longer seems to me to be quite the same as ours, the one we have inherited, the same for those who will die at Armageddon. They will not die because of their imperfection. They will die because of The Kingdom.

 

Jehovah has already done this, giving death to someone so that the servant escapes a more cruel death. Here too: is it the death inherited from Adam if it is Jehovah who gets involved?

 

I will end with the case of Jesus: his death does not come from Adam, does it not, he remained obedient, so from whom does it come? The secular enemy? In any case, it is he who introduced the reaper. The death of Jesus is historical and will remain so: the only perfect human to die perfect, while remaining obedient, we all know that.

You are reminding me of the case of Enoch, Jehovah took him so that he would not die a cruel death. - Gen 5:24
Yet he remains in Jehovah's memory as a faithful servant. Heb 11:5, 13 .
Could Jehovah apply the same to the remaining anointed ones? I think it makes perfect sense.
