PharmaGirl: Sweetheart pls do not believe everything u see on the internet. Some people go out of their way to manipulate facts and make things appear the way they really are not. Jehovah's witnesses encourages their members to pray for those in dire circumstances including the sick ones. They believe in miracles, miracles happen everyday. what they don't believe in is "faith healing". They also encourage their members to seek the best medical care when they are sick. Even then, as a matter of fact, taking drugs is not a guarantee, it's only the grace of God that can make you functional again.. That sweetheart, is a miracle in itself... 27 Likes 1 Share |

afroniger:How can you think cheaply like this? Who is your role model? Where did u read in the bible or anywhere, that Jesus Christ, the Father of all miracles went to a sick bay or mortuary for the purpose of show offs?

A JW will rather seek the help of witch doctors than pray for miracle. I was once advised by one JW woman to rub some charms in my lips for job interview success and i looked at her astonishingly but said since am not yet a baptized brother that there's nothing wrong with that. 1 Like 1 Share |

afroniger: You don't have to be so bitter because you don't believe in miracles. Being bitter won't make miracles fake. Though there are lots of scammers in the Christiandom today but that doesn't say Geniune Miracles are not happening. And You don't need a pastor to get a miracle from God, that is what the Jehovah's witnesses don't know. I know I have received miracles from God many times without going to a pastor. 1 Like |

Jehovah witness are evidence based people. They try to use science to explain everything. God doesn't work like that, God says believe and you shall see. Jehovahs witness says "See then believe" they do not believe anything unless there is a scientific explanation for it 2 Likes |

CAN THE ABILITIES TO PERFORM MIRACLES COME FROM ANY OTHER SOURCE APART FROM GOD? YES.... remember the case of Moses when he went before Pharaoh .... God directed him to throw down his roof and it became a snake.... the magic priests of Egypt also threw theirs and they became snakes..... by whose power?? Jesus also made it clear that in the last days..."many false Christs and false prophets will arise and give great signs and wonders to mislead if possible, even the chosen ones" (Matt 24:24) ARE THE MIRACLES BEEN PERFORMED TODAY DONE IN THE SAME WAY JESUS AND HIS EARLY DISCIPLES DID?? COST OF SERVICES: Jesus said at Matthew 10:8 "cute sick people, raise up dead persons, make lepers clean, expel demons.. you received free, give free" ......can that be said of healers today?? RATE OF SUCCESS: Luke 6:19....Jesus healed ALL who came to him...ALL who touched him Acts 5:15,16.....even Peter's shadow healed people... whatever sickness they brought..."THEY WOULD BE ONE AND ALL CURED" ARE TRUE CHRISTIANS TODAY IDENTIFIED BY THEIR ABILITY TO DO HEALING? John 13:34,35.....Jesus clearly stated that love would be the identifying marks of true Christians .....LOVE not ABILITY TO PERFORM MIRACLES Acts 1:18 shows that Holy Spirit will empower true followers of Christ to preach to the most distant part of the earth ARE THOSE TWO SCRIPTURES NOT BEEN FULFILLED BY JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES TODAY?? We look forward to a time when healing will be completely performed by God himself.... according to REVELATION 21:1-4.... ISAIAH 25:8 and ISAIAH 33:24 O.P here's plausible reasons why JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES do not align with the healings performed today....I hope this helps and read your Bible more 9 Likes |

First, it depends on your definition of d word"miracle". For me, life itself is a miracle. But if u refer to d scam churches perform ( supposed healing of d sick etc) as miracle, den I would call dat "staged miracle". Do a little research and tank me later. I wonder y some would swallow every misconceptions abt J.witnesses hook line and sinker wout at least making some extended research. Here are some few questions to stimulate your thinking : 1. do these supposed miracles follow Jesus' methods? 2. Wat is d motive behind d so called miracles? 3. y is Dat most sick ones would still leave d presence of Dis miracle performers d same way d were if not worse? 4. y can't d resurrect d dead abi dat one no follow for miracle? 5. y do these miracle performers run to d hospital Wn dey have a little headache? 6. do u know dat MOST of these miracle performers have a link with some medical laboratories? U know d reason right! So dat after claiming u are healed, d ask u to go for lab investigations in a specific lab knowing fully well dat d result would be influenced in deir favor... I can go on and on. This needs logical reasoning to answer even without a scripture. 2 Likes |

kurt09:one major reason why this country is bleeped. A child was sick..They didnt take her to hospital. They brought out bible. Assuming the baby stopped breathing now, they will take the baby to hospital and blame the doctor that certified him dead saying they should have given the baby oxygen. If such a baby is sick abroad do u think they will start with psalm.91 when they had good healthcare. Continue deceiving yourself if this is what you call miracle. 5 Likes |

Probably if you know the purpose why Jesus Christ and his apostles performed miracles you will know why. |
