Watch this if you dare? We can study the scriptures by watching the debate video.
But if you aren't willing to do so, you will always be in darkness like the other video shows you and your comrades are.
How can God keep His blessings upon you, if you are choosing not to believe in the Word of God...

dolphinheart:


it's easy to see that the reason I refused to respond is not about what you said, but your deliberate editing of my post when quoting me, you deliberate removal of the scriptures I quoted shows you know that an attempt to talk about them will expose you.


lie lie dolphinheart

false accuser,

duh, I often quote just the things that I wanted to reply to
I don't often quote your full posts unless they are short ones,
but you love to lie.
If you have scriptures to post addressing the few things that I said
then post them and stop lying and false accusing like your father satan does.

ha ha, stop lying and false accusing, as if you could cheesy

I don't change the scriptures so they don't expose me
but they have exposed you many many times

Scripture shows Father God has never been seen by man
but you clain Yahweh who appeared to Abraham Isaac and Jacod is Father God

but the scriptures expose you false jw dolphinheart:


Joh 6:46  Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.

Joh 1:18  No man hath seen God at any time the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.

Joh 5:37  And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.

1Ti 6:16  Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.

1Jn 4:12  No man hath seen God(Father) at any time If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.





Exo 6:2  And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the LORD(Yahweh): 
Exo 6:3  And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.


the Word said to Moses "I am Yahweh"

the Word said to Moses "I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty,

the Word is "Yahweh"

the Word is "God Almighty"

More facts that people should know about the sect that call themselves jehovah's witnesses

false jw's blaspheme the Word-Jesus Christ-God, saying He is "a god"


Jesus is Yahweh:

Yahweh
Psa 102:25 Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.

Jesus
Heb 1:10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:



Yahweh
Isa 45:23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

Jesus
Php 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
Php 2:11 And that every tongue should confes that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.




Yahweh
Deu 10:17 For the LORD your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward:

Jesus
Rev 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.

Incidentally, see at Deut 17:14 God is referred to as a mighty God, and we know that God is also referred to as Almighty God, they are not two gods, a mighty god and an almighty God as false jw preach.




Yahweh
Isa 44:6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.

Jesus
Joh 1:49 Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel

Jesus
Rev 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
Rev 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.




Yahweh
Psa 130:7 Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
Psa 130:8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

Jesus
Tit 2:14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.



Yahweh
Zec 12:10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.

Jesus
Rev 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.




yahweh
Joe 2:32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.

Jesus
Rom 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.



Yahweh
Psa 89:9 Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.

Jesus
Mar 4:39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

brocab:
Dolphinheart-but you do not believe Jesus died , or do you?, for your false doctrines to stand you had to modify what Jesus said, trying to claim that it's his flesh that died and not him, I even when Jesus clearly said that he was dead!

What did Jesus say up on the cross {John 19:30} It is finished, He bowed His head, and gave up His Spirit. Meaning His Spirit didn't die, but His flesh did.
{Matthew 10:28} And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul.
So Jesus Spirit left the flesh, and gave up His Spirit..

I shake my head at you, you refuse to read or explain the scriptures quoted to you while you desperately try to twist others, adding to it what it did not tell you!
BROCAB, READ THE SCRIPTURES AND UNDERSTAND.

1. JESUS DIED
Ro 14:9 For to this end Christ died and came to life again, so that he might be Lord over both the dead and the living.
brocab, the scriptures wunt say Jesus came to life again if he still had life when he died.

2. HE GAVE UP HIS SPIRIT
You posted John 19: 30, but in you bid to formulate falsehood out of it, you failed to listen to what that verse is telling you.
Joh 19:30When he had received the sour wine, Jesus said: “It has been accomplished!” and bowing his head, he gave up his spirit.
King James Version
Joh 19:30When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.


Did you see the underlined above?, it did not say Jesus left his body using only his spirit, it did not say Jesus continued living as a spirit, it said Jesus GAVE UP his spirit, if you give something up, IT'S NO LONGER YOURS, look another verse on the same issue
Mt 27:50Again Jesus called out with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit.
King James Version
Mt 27:50Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.


If you give up your spirit, it means you(the person) are dead, you have died!
Ps 146:4His spirit goes out, he returns to the ground; On that very day his thoughts perish.

Ps 104:29When you hide your face, they are disturbed. If you take away their spirit, they die and return to the dust.

Lu 23:46And Jesus called out with a loud voice and said: “Father, into your hands I entrust my spirit.” After he said this, he expired


brocab, the scriptures said Jesus expired!, not his flesh expired. JESUS, AS A PERSON EXPIRED, DIED!

If you do not understand why Jesus said the words above, pls start by reading this verse below
[b]Heb 5:7 During his life on earth, Christ offered up supplications and also petitions, with strong outcries and tears, to the One who was able to save him out of death, and he was favorably heard for his godly fear.

3. JESUS GAVE UP HIS LIFE
It is more clear when we realise that Jesus had to give up his life for us, not just his flesh , not just his blood , BUT HIS LIFE.
FOR YOU CLAIM THAT JESUS WAS STILL ALIVE AFTER HE DIED, THEN YOU ARE CALLING JESUS A LIAR, THAT JESUS DID NOT GIVE UP HIS LIFE, THAT HE STILL HELD ON TO IT BUT ONLY GAVE UP HIS BODY.

But we know that the scriptures and jesus did not lie, therefore it is you that is lying, trying to give false doctrines by twisting the scriptures.
1Jo 3:16By this we have come to know love, because that one surrendered his life for us, and we are under obligation to surrender our lives for our brothers.

Joh 15:13No one has love greater than this, that someone should surrender his life in behalf of his friends.

2and go on walking in love, just as the Christ also loved us and gave himself for us as an offering and a sacrifice, a sweet fragrance to God.


From reading the scriptures above, and many more not quoted, a sincere person will know that Jesus gave up more than just his flesh!



Dolphinheart-[b]Jesus HIMSELF IDENTIFIED WHO THE TRUE GOD IS.
Joh 17:3This means everlasting life, their coming to know you, the only true God,and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ.
* Jesus identified the true to you, his next words excludes him from the only person who is the true God, the true God sent him, the true God did not send himself, he sent his servant!

Maybe it's about time you asked the Lord into your life-and let Him teach you the Scriptures instead of trying to work them out from your own mind, Jesus had claimed through out the bible who He really is. Here's a very good example read {Isaiah 9:6} For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is Given, and the Government shall be upon His shoulder, and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The everlasting Father, The prince of peace.
You are a very cunning fellow, I showed you who the true God, the one God, our God is , using the scriptures, you could not counter my explanation or give your own understanding of those verses. you want to see if you can change the issue to who Jesus is instead of who the only true God , the one God is as shown to you by the scriptures. Once the truth is being shown to you in the scriptures, you try to avoid it.

THE QUESTIONS ARE STILL PENDING, YOU REFUSE TO ANSWER THEM.
THE QUESTIONS ARE SIMPLE TO UNDERSTAND, STOP YOUR DUBIOUS TACTICS, THE QUESTIONS ARE SIMPLE AND ARE NUMBERED , ANSWER IT!

1.How do we know the truth if two people give contrary answers and both claim God spirit told them?

2. Jo 5:20And we know that the (1) Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know (2) him that is true, and we are in (3) him that is true, (4) even in (5) his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
now brocab, pls tell us:
2A. who is "the son of God" in (1) above, coloured red
2B. who is the "him" in (2) above, coloured blue
2C. who is the "him" in (3) above , coloured red
2D. what do you understand by the underlined "even In his son" in (4)
2E. who is the "his " in 5 above , coloured blue.


(2)YOU COULD NOT SUBSTANTIATE YOUR ACCUSATION BY POINTING TO A SCRIPTURE THAT I HAVE TWISTED IN THAT POST.

(3)YON COULD NOT DENY MY ACCUSATIONS IN THAT POST.

(4) YOU COULD NOT GIVE CONTRARY EXPLANATION TO ANY SCRIPTURE I QUOTED IN THAT POST

(5) YOU COULD NOT EXPLAIN THE SCRIPTURES OR FAULT MY EXPLANATION WHEN I USED THE SCRIPTURES TO SHOW YOU WHO THE TRUE GOD IS, WHO THE ONE GOD IS.

[b]Jesus HIMSELF IDENTIFIED WHO THE TRUE GOD IS.
Joh 17:3This means everlasting life, their coming to know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ.
* Jesus identified the true to you, his next words excludes him from the only person who is the true God, the true God sent him, the true God did not send himself, he sent his servant!

THE DISCIPLES IDENTIFY WHO THE ONE GOD IS 
1Co 8:6 there is actually to us one God, the Father, from whom all things are and we for him; and there is one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things are and we through him.

THE SCRIPTURES TELL US WHO Jesus IS IN RELATION TO THAT ONE GOD
1Ti 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, a man, Christ Jesus,

brocab , Jesus is the mediator between our one God and men , that is also comfirmed by the scriptures below
Ro 8:34Who will condemn them? Christ Jesus is the one who died, yes, more than that the one who was raised up, who is at the right hand of God and who also pleads for us.

Our one God is not pleading with himself!. read Heb 7:25, 1Jo 2:1




For someone who reasons, if you want to correct someone, you first point to where the mistake was made, then add your corrections, at no time have i ever said jesus is the mediator of god the devil. Therefore, your correction Comes out of a dubious intent, to make it look as if I said something I did not say!

below is the scripture I quoted, a scripture you cannot explain :

1Ti 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, a man, Christ Jesus,

And I supported my explanation of that scripture with the following scripture.
Ro 8:34Who will condemn them? Christ Jesus is the one who died, yes, more than that the one who was raised up, who is at the right hand of God and who also pleads for us.
read Heb 7:25, 1Jo 2:1


ill also add this verse for emphasis
[b]Heb 9:24For Christ did not enter into a holy place made with hands, which is a copy of the reality, but into heaven itself, so that he now appears before God on our behalf.

The above verses are true brocab, even Daniel saw the vision of the son of man being granted audience with the ancient of days! Jesus appears before God , Jesus is not God that he appears before!

What is the difference between a video and someone writing on this page-you don't believe in the bible any way.
So what makes you true to your words, everything you have written has caused an argument between the Word Of God and your father the devil.

The only problem you have-you don't reason very well, even after the answers are written down, you are to blind to see them, reason, because they are not written in your Magazine.
And the fact is, it is not a lie-but the truth. JW's are not allowed to study any other bible's, nor with anybody out side their organisation, but only their own.
Why because the organisation are afraid to loose their fiances.

FOR YOU CLAIM THAT JESUS WAS STILL ALIVE AFTER HE DIED, THEN YOU ARE CALLING JESUS A LIAR, THAT JESUS DID NOT GIVE UP HIS LIFE, THAT HE STILL HELD ON TO IT BUT ONLY GAVE UP HIS BODY.

If Jesus didn't give up His Spirit-then why did God raise Him up from the dead {Acts 2:24, 1 Corinthians 6:14, Romans 8:11} {Mark 16:19} After the Lord had spoken unto them {Disciples} He was received up into heaven.
So you believe Jesus no-longer exist-once He gave up His Spirit that's it "finished?
I say not bad for a dead man-after He was crucified, and He was later seen by His disciples, "alive" and living, and God had taken Him up unto Heaven, and Jesus sits on God's right hand side?

In your definition what does 'Almighty' mean?

This goes to the invited and uninvited guest, to the deep thinkers and to those who have discerning minds.
Is there any difference between the ''my God'' found in John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
And
''my God'' found in John 20:28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My LORD and my God.
A. Yes. B. No. C. Uncertain. D. Deny. Please pick the options only the question is self explanatory enough.
From Jesus' statement in John 20:17, is Jesus the Almighty God.
A. Yes B. No. C. Uncertain D. Deny
from thomas who was a Jew calling Jesus his Lord and God and Jesus didnt correct him like the angel corrected John when John wanted to worship him, it mean Jesus is Almighty God.
Even Jesus said he and his father are one again the word is God believe it or not it doesnt change

Barristter07:


the underlined is what happen when you fail to reason! Sir , use your brain: can the Almighty be given Power or Authority ? Definitely, the one who gave Jesus power and authority is the Almighty not Jesus . he got authority from Nobody, can you give an instance in the bible where the Only True God and Father of Christ is been given Power or authority ?
the question should be why would Jehovah give another god all power both in heaven and on earth?
Isaiah 42:8 I am the LORD: that is my name: and my[b] glory will I not give to another, [/b]neither my praise to graven images.


Jehovah gave Jesus all power in heaven and in earth because Jesus is God.

I wonder when you will stop lying.
you cant stop accusing me wrongly. Can you point out a single question that i didnt answer?
Dolphinheart Jesus is the Almighty all being bow at the mention of his name and someday you will bow either in peace or in pieces God has sworn it. Leave that darkness you call jehovah witness God is pleased when you honor and worship his son rejecting Jesus means incuring God's full and undiluted wrath.
For he that accept not the Son makes God a liar because he believed not on the son.

Abegii allow christ to do his work. If am to ask you again Do I need to see christ as God before gaining everlasting life according to his words in John 3:16. You will respond by colouring the whole issue. Simple yes/no. You cant answer.

Christ indeed has done great things and more to come. To accept him is left for me to decide not for you to decide on my behalf.
As to later part of your post do you mean ''God'' or ''son of God'' or you simply dont like John 3:16 anymore because it seems it does not support your ideology.

you really needed that reply. If Jesus is given the supreme authority and power does that not make him the supreme one.
what you failed to grasped here is that the issue is not whether he was given or not but only his position. the bible calls him 'the only potentate' I hope you know what that mean.

As for Jesus being given authority and power, do you know Jesus is God? When Jesus came into this world he didnt come with the authority and power he had originally, he came as a servant that is why pray to the father to glorify him with the glory had before the world began.
When Jesus resurrected he received back his authority and power which is the authority of the Almighty.

''He received back'' is the watch word here. From who? Does your opening words correpond to 1 Cor 15:28? Yes/No.

Dats a lie

Tell me 1 of their doctrines and were it contradicts the bible

I will tell u urz and hw it contradicts d bible

That Jesus Christ is Arch-Angel Michael... And denial of Trinity

1 question for you guys... John 1:1 - 5, 14. Shows that Jesus is (in form of) God. Jesus Christ is the Word of God, the the Word is God Himself.


I attended JW meeting a lot and read a lot of their publications... I like many things about them, but for one reason, most of their doctrines contradicts the bible.

"There are so many ways that seems right to men, but in the end, it leads to destruction"

But you believe Jesus is Almighty God and a man as well. Or perhaps Jesus was lying to the woman of samaria.
Let me get you straight, Jesus the Almighty God(while in the flesh) said to the woman of samaria(who also in flesh) that Jesus ( Almighty God)whom the woman of samaria saw with her naked eyes is a spirit. John 4:24. Does that not seem like a lie to you? And yet no man has seen God not to talk of woman.

Brocab, Solite3, Johnw74 e.t.c I never thought I could stumble across this but let me share it with you guys. Luke 22:69 hereafter shall the son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God. Guess what!!! Jesus himself said this. Jesus did not only confirm himself as son of man as indicated in Dan 7:13 but also indicate his position in relation to God. Expecting your comment on this one though.
