@poster,
They are fulfulling the scripture as written in the book of Romans

ROMANS 10
13. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

14. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom
they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

15. And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that
preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: Who Are They? by omoluc: 4:34am On Apr 05, 2008
kola oloye you know much about them?

one principal thing i know about Jehovah's witnesses is that they give message of hope to all downhearted persons only if they are given the opportunity, Their news is real and true good news from the bible. You will noticed that if you have ever listened to them with a non-biased view about them.
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: Who Are They? by Lakeside(m): 10:25am On Apr 05, 2008
@kola
thats a good point, how can they hear if there is no one to tell them,

i just want to know the views of the witnesses concerning heaven and hell.one of them actually told me that hell is not a place of punishment but a place where God will do battle with the sinners.
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: Who Are They? by djl(m): 1:16pm On Apr 22, 2008

If u need more on them, try one of the following
1) go to any of their local congregations
2) Visit their websites[url][/url]www.watchtower.org
3)Read any of their publications




NB: Nobody is your informant on Jehovah's witnesses.
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: Who Are They? by sammyzacks(m): 3:09pm On Apr 24, 2008
simply answered: Jehovah's witnesses are agents of the anti-Christ. they deny Jesus as being the almighty God. They call him almighty god with a small letter "g". have you ever read their bible? Jn 1: 1 is rendered as follows: "in the beginning was the word, the word was with God and the word was a god."

further research into their doctrine reveals that they claim that angel Micheal is actually Jesus.

so you see any movement that put Jesus down to the level of a mere angel, or a god must be anti-Christ controlled.
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: Who Are They? by zesty: 4:38pm On Feb 17, 2009
question

why are the Jehovah witnesses against blood transfusion even to save a life?

my brother is a doctor,a patient was lost durin a Ceasarean section because she and her husband refused her to be transfused.he was intimated abt the risks.that she was loosing blood and since she was goin 2 have a C-section she needed blood.they stil refused and the lady bled to death.then, her husband had d guts 2 say that he was goin 2 sue the doctor and d hospital for causing his wife's death.

pls wats d reason for dis ur belief?
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: Who Are They? by Bobbyaf(m): 6:36pm On Feb 17, 2009
I'd say this much about the Witnesses, that they are good people in general, but have been misled by their organization. In their attempt to be different it has made them look extremely exclusive, both socially and spiritually.

@Ifele
Sometimes people amaze me the way they misbehave just because they are anonymous. Anonymity should not turn ur brain upside now. This thread was abt JW. If you want to preach Allah, u are free 2 create ur thread and post anything to it. It is stupid of you to just jump into the thread with a post that has no connection with the topic.

@sammysacks
You seem to feel so strongly about JW claim dat Jesus is not Almighty God. However, if you are patient to read more of your bible, u will actually know that they are saying the truth concerning this issue. I have cited some passages in the scriptures here for you to read:

Jesus prayed to Almighty God the night he was about to be impaled: Matt 26: 39
Jesus is distinct from his father, Almighty God. John 8: 17, 18
Almighty God has more knowledge and Power than Jesus: Mark 13:32, Matt. 20:20-23
Almighty God is greater than Jesus John 14:28
The Head of Christ is God: 1 Cor. 11: 3
Christ will be subjected to God: 1 Cor. 15: 27,28

@all
The best way to know about Jehovah's Witnesses is for you to meet them one-on-one and make inquiries. I am sure this is not a viable forum for explaining their beliefs. I encourage you all to have an open mind and hear them out. However, I know some minds are like concrete, well mixed and set.
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: Who Are They? by tlfacts: 3:34pm On Feb 17, 2010
Jehovah's witnesses believe Yeshua is Angel Michael.

chai! very easy
with that little description which you don't need to go further,
they are kunle osbobi's relatives
abi kunle do you want to deny your family members? shocked
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: Who Are They? by Nobody: 2:53pm On Feb 21, 2010
JW are a cult formed by a man whose mamma used the concept of hell to scare him to death. They believe God is too loving to throw his children in hell, what also baffles me is that they don't believe the same 'too loving God can give his children miracles, or want them to spend the day they were born celebrating, that and all the numerous other dumb things they believe,

Can you list some of them? Please don't bring Angel Michael again o!
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: Who Are They? by tlfacts: 5:51pm On Feb 22, 2010
They believe Yeshua was not bodily raised from the dead
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: Who Are They? by MyJoe: 5:57pm On Feb 22, 2010
And what's your grouse with that? Or are you saying that he took the body that was pierced with spears up from the grave and into heaven? Ok, if he was raised by his old body, tell me why his disciples did not recognise him.
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: Who Are They? by tlfacts: 6:24pm On Feb 22, 2010
Is it not Yeshua that asked His disciple to put his finger into the wound that He had to confirm if He was a ghost.
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: Who Are They? by MyJoe: 10:38am On Feb 23, 2010
You mean to confirm that he was the one.

Yes. That only confirms what your opponents are saying. Why was that necessary in the first place. I mean why did the disciples not recognise him, necessitating for him to put on his old body just for the benefit of the doubting Thomas? Think.

Wait a minute. Are you really saying Jesus resurrected with that sword-pierced and bloodstaind body and took it to heaven?!  shocked
