Jozzy4: Joh 13:34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. Joh 13:35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. What false jw have for one another is not love, it is self righteous hypocrisy, as below: Jozzy4: dolphinheart: of course apart from you false jw jozzy and you lie lie dolphinheart being self righteous hypocrites, accusing bro and myself of doing precisely what you are doing, even in those two posts You are also of course taking after your father satan in being demonic, claiming that bro and I come together because we, like herod and pilate, see Jesus as a common enemy Joh_8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. false jw jozz and lie lie dolph, just like your god satan, there is no truth in you. Talk about having a common enemy in Jesus, you certainly do, you change God's word to say the Word is "a god", you say Alpha and Omega is not Jesus everywhere where Jesus is shown to be God, you reject it You reject Jesus and you reject the Bible Your jesus who is "a god' "a angel" is a false jesus You reject Jesus, He is your common enemy Now that's the truth. 1 Like |

brocab: We are told not to eat blood, is all but false jw leaders have said through witchpower magazine that you are not to give blood tranfusions, and false jw believe what men tell them men told them many prophecies that failed, still false jw believe men men told them Jesus is "a god", still false jw believe men men told them Jesus wasn't bodily resurrected, still false jw believe men and on and on, they believe men and not God. Test the Spirits 1Jn 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 1Jn 4:2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 1Jn 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 1Jn 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. Greater is ("he") the Lofty God that is in us Christians, than ("he") the teenie weenie fairy satan that is in the world-false jw that is false jw's god, the god of this world, satan 1Jn 4:5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 1Jn 4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us.

brocab:According to your(brocab) believe, Father is 'I am' Exodus 3:14, Jesus is 'I am' John 8:58. Therefore Father equals Jesus equals God. But because you(brocab) refuse to reason well enough you cannot discern that John 14:28 said one of the 'I am' is greater than the other 'I am'. The last sentence comes in perfect agreement with 1 Cor 11:3 that states the head of the christ( in physical/spiritual body) is God, because when Paul made that statement the christ is no longer here on earth. 1 Corinthians 11:3 comes into perfect agreement with Isaiah 44:6 I am(Father) the first, and I am(Father) the last; and beside me there is no God(I am, Jesus, John 1:1 #was God). |

johnw74: The first verse of Revelation shows that the revelation was given originally by God and through Jesus Christ, hence the one speaking (through an angelic representative) at times is God himself, and at other times it is Christ Jesus. Thus Revelation 1:8 (RS) says: “‘I am the Alpha and the Omega,’ says the Lord God [“Jehovah God,” NW], who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” Although the preceding verse speaks of Christ Jesus, it is clear that in verse 8 the application of the title is to “the Almighty” God. In this regard Barnes’ Notes on the New Testament (1974) observes: “It cannot be absolutely certain that the writer meant to refer to the Lord Jesus specifically here . . . There is no real incongruity in supposing, also, that the writer here meant to refer to God as such.” 1 Like |

Is Jesus the Almighty? Jesus’ opposers accused him of making himself equal to God. (John 5:18; 10:30-33) However, Jesus never claimed to be on the same level as Almighty God. He said: “The Father is greater than I am.”— John 14:28 Jesus’ early followers did not view him as being equal to Almighty God. For example, the apostle Paul wrote that after Jesus was resurrected, God “exalted him [Jesus] to a superior position.” Obviously, Paul did not believe that Jesus was Almighty God. Otherwise, how could God exalt Jesus to a superior position if he is the most superior ? —Philippians 2:9. The title’s application to Jehovah God is made obvious at Revelation 19:6 by the use of the expression Hallelujah (Praise Jah, you people!). Likewise, the expression “the One who is and who was and who is coming” (Re 1:8; 4: clearly points to the God of eternity who not only “was” the Almighty in ancient times but continues to be so and “is coming” as such with an expression of his all-powerfulness (Ps 90:2), 1 Like |

Then this is proof, if you do what Jehovah tells you to do, Then your Jehovah is the devil throughout. First commandment, Love your god with all your heart mind and soul. Second commandment, love your neighbour as yourself. These are the only two commandments the Lord Gave us, to follow. And there's no scripture in the Bible where that say's don't give blood. {Acts 15:19-20} Therefore, My judgement is that we do not trouble those of the Gentiles who have turned to God, but that we write to them to abstain from pollution of idols, and from sexual immorality, and what have been strangled and from blood. Did you not know by giving human blood helps save lives, basing Church doctrine on a single scripture {a version of proof texting} is not a wise thing to do, especially when the teaching can have a serious impact on the lives of those who follow it, {Say JW's} Note that these verses are not discussing the donating of a bodily fluid or receiving it from another person. These verses are referring to a sometimes a common practice among Gentiles {Non Jews} of eating and drinking blood, it was a practise that God forbid the Israelite's who had just left pagan Egypt from doing {Leviticus 3:17} It shall be a statute forever for you generation throughout all your dwellings that you eat neither fat nor blood. [/color] The above is the written truth, you keep on murdering your own love ones-or you believe in what the Word Of God tells you to do. Sarang: |

So if God's name is Jehovah-then you are calling Him God God {Jehovah God?} Thanks for your offer, but I am not interested in a doctrine that doesn't line up with any truth about the Word of God, unscriptural. Sarang: |

brocab:don't get confused brocab, we are not talking about the meaning or explanation of the scriptures. We are talking about the authenticity and existence of particular words and sentences in the scriptures. people who do such works do not have to believe in the content. And if you don't believe everything this scholar say's, then how do you believe in anything He say's?hope you read my post, their explanations guide me in coming to a conclusion about a particular issue. If they give an explanation that is convincing enough, I believe them. The problem you are having is-you are trying to get your answers elsewhere other then looking for answers in the bible.Get serious brocab, we are discussing the authenticity of a particular scripture, 2 different bibles giving conflicting statements, how do you know which one is true if not to study the source of the translation. And of course their are critics everywhere-but as I said without having the Spirit of God, none of these answers are accurate.1. so if a christian who claims to have Gods spirit tells you the same answer that I've given you about that verse, will you agree? 2. I'll love go be part of the meek ones who will inherit the earth. |
