What a ludicrous and baseless verdict by a moronic judge. How can you describe those who doesn't compel people to convert to their religion as extremists? Does members of Jehovah witness pose a threat to lives and property? Do they look like Boko haram plus armed fulani herdsmen? Thunder fire that mumu judge!

Then it's a shame you don't have any idea who Jehovah's Witnesses are.

An expression at Romans 13:1 designating human governmental authorities. That scripture has been variously rendered: “Let every soul be in subjection to the superior authorities, for there is no authority except by God; the existing authorities stand placed in their relative positions by God.” (NW) “Let every subject be obedient to the ruling authorities, for there is no authority not under God’s control, and under His control the existing authorities have been constituted.” (We) “Everyone must obey the state authorities, for no authority exists without God’s permission, and the existing authorities have been put there by God.”—TEV

Reasons for Christian Subjection. There being no reason for Christians to set themselves in opposition to an arrangement that God has permitted, they have good reason to be in subjection to the superior authorities. Governmental rulers, though they may be corrupt personally, would not normally punish others for doing good, that is, for adhering to the law of the land. But a person who engages in thievery, murder, or other lawless acts could expect an adverse judgment from the ruling authority. One guilty of deliberate murder, for instance, might be executed for his crime. Since Jehovah God authorized capital punishment for murderers after the Flood (Ge 9:6), the human authority, by executing the lawbreaker, would be acting as “God’s minister, an avenger to express wrath upon the one practicing what is bad.”—Ro 13:2-4; Tit 3:1; 1Pe 2:11-17.

Now you know better.

In case you all don't know why the Russian government has singled out Jehovah's Witnesses, here it is.

According to the prophecies recorded in the Bible. The last world power is the Anglo-American world power. This is part of what we preach, signifying the end of this wicked system of things.

On the other hand, The Russians are aspiring to become the next world power, something that won't happen. No prophecy in the Bible has gone unfulfilled.

Please study that image that King Nebuchadnezzar saw in the vision and the significance of the body parts if the image.

Another Adolphus Hitler in Russia. JWs only hesitate blood transfusion during emergency and it is a matter of choice. They are peace loving people because they do not believe in war that Putin is fighting in Syria, exterminating innocent women and children. Annexatiion of Ukraine and causing tension in the region are some of the reasons Putin hates JWs. They do not engage in military enlistment i.e no killing nor bearing of arms. They do not force people to join them nor declare fatwas when provoked. Putin and Al assad are the extremists that disturb world peace just like ISIS, BOKO HARAM, AL QAEDA, AL SHABAB etc.

JWs have never been considered true Christians because of their heretical views on Christ's Divinity. But as a Christian I would never go as far as labeling them "extremists", not by any stretch of the imagination. I've never heard of ONE single extremist incident in which a JW carried out a terror attack, staged forced conversion on an unwilling subject or carried on any war in the name of their beliefs.

Thank goodness the JWs have a right of appeal to the European Court of Human Rights where I'm very sure this stupid ruling of the Russian Supreme Court will be reversed in its entirety.

Russia must be crazy. JW's are good people. I am not one, but all through my growing up from primary school age to adulthood, they have always been part of my life as friends., and i have been imparted positively by them in academia and careerwise. I am even hosting a jw family at my home next month sef as they travel from their home to my city to attend a JW conference.

Uyi168:
Of all the christian sects out there,the JW are the most persecuted..

For those who are honest hearted out there, please read Jesus' words about the sign of the time of the end in Luke 21: 12, 13, 17 and 18. These words describe the experience of his true followers in the time of the end. Verse 13 particularly gives the reason for such persecution - namely to give a witness and thus help honest hearted ones identify Christ's true followers. The ban of JW in Russia, like other persecutions on this sole Christian group is a sign not to ignore. This landmark event beams guiding light to honest hearted ones out there of which Christian group fits Jesus description in his words at Luke 21:12, 13, 17 and 18. Know that current events in Russia serves to give an international witness to discerning honest hearted ones. Despite not presenting any evidence to prove the malicious claim of the tag of "extremist group" on JW, the Russian Supreme Court bans a peaceful group of worshipers, violating their right to freedom of worship. Know that this is for a witness to honest hearted ones like you! Recognise the hand writing on the wall directing you to Christ's true followers in the time of the end.

Instead of all this court matter wey no get head or tail
Just tell them.straight in their face that you don't want them to preach about God.

The only reason someone becomes agitated is if they're preaching "truth" and you're loosing your sheeps.

No attempt to stamp out Jehovah's witnesses as a group will succeed. Hitler's regime tried but failed. Jehovah will deliver his peace loving people. Russian government should understand the meaning of the word "EXTREMIST" before labeling witnesses as such. The persecution of the Russian government confirms the truthfulness of 2 Timothy 3:12 All those desiring to live a life of godly devotion in association with christ Will be persecuted. As a Jehovah's witness, I respect others right to their religious beliefs. This is not time to exchange words with anyone. Rather it is time to implore to Jehovah to intervene on behalf of our brothers and sisters in Russia.
