Janosky: You no even get answer before now . Why should I be spoon fed when the Bible you carry say Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming. Are you still infant that need to be fed by GB? |

I was a Catholic. Let's take this by bits. Think about this: why did Adam and Eve (the original sinners) not go to hell fire? Clearly, they just returned to dust (a state of non-existence) as God foretold they would. (Eccl. 9:5, 10). When we die, we quit to exist (Psalm 146:4). Even Jesus knew this hence his wept Lazarus his friend died. (John 11:11, 13, 14). We inherited sin from our first parents and sin begot death. . Sth to think about, when Lazarus, Jesus' friend died, if he went to heaven (where people deem as eternal bliss), doesn't it mean that Jesus' resurrecting him would be unfair for him to come and suffer on Earth again? Did you also notice Jesus said 'Lazarus had died' and not he transformed to another place? He even likened death to sleep! UDUJ: 1 Like 1 Share |

achorladey: That's Jesus' own words and his first century followers takes after him by expelling those who refuses to comply with the code of conduct in their midst! 1Corinthians 5:13 compare to 2John 10-11 So read those verses and tell the forum how it's to be applied in the Christian congregation, because that's rules as in laws from Jesus, and of course those not keeping this commandments are nothing but workers of lawlessness (iniquity) Matthew 7:23 1 Like |

Peacefullove: You be TOWN CRIER wey dey knack GONG ni? That you have to SOUND it to my HEAR. But Scriptures says the LAST day BEGAN in 1914 Scriptures says JESUS RETURNED invisibly in 1914 and appointed the FDS in 1919 Scriptures says JESUS converted WEEDS to WHEATS when he returned in 1914 to start REORGANIZATION of TRUE CHRISTIANS since true Christians disappear in +/-100 C.E Scriptures says we have to EXERCISE faith in the ORGANIZATION of JWS to be TRUE CHRISTIANS. Scriptures says SALVATION depends on the GB of JWS. All those that believed the above are CHRISTIANS Peacefullove: Let me sound it in your ears, anyone who believe in immortal soul is not a Christian ! This is what majority held tight. So its safe for JW's to marry themselves Achorladey: John 13:35 reads ....... anyone who believe in immortal soul is not a Christian. Don't ask me how I deduced it? 1 Like |

DappaD: His disciples asked him multiple questions he answered some of the questions and told them not to worry the end is not yet, because he will come at a time you do not expect. Before he ascension they were eager to know if he was resurrected to start ruling as king he told them they are not privileged to know that information. Acts.1.6 - So when they met together, they asked him, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" Acts.1.7 - He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. Mark.13.1 - As he was leaving the temple, one of his disciples said to him, "Look, Teacher! What massive stones! What magnificent buildings!" Mark.13.2 - "Do you see all these great buildings?" replied Jesus. "Not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down." Matt.24.6 - You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. They didn't when he would come as king to judge the world the signs he gave them he told them to fear not the end has not come. The end will come at a time you do not expect Matt.24.44 - So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him. Matt.24.50 - The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. In fact there is a curse for those who presumptuously feel that the Judgement day is going to favour them and solve all their problems. Amos.5.18 - Woe to you who long for the day of the LORD! Why do you long for the day of the LORD? That day will be darkness, not light. Amos.5.19 - It will be as though a man fled from a lion only to meet a bear, as though he entered his house and rested his hand on the wall only to have a snake bite him. Yes on the day of Judgement over confident people will be disappointed. I am not saying that everything the organization is saying is false but their basic doctrine is false. Mixing truth and falsehood is more dangerous than outright falsehood. This organization is like a trap for truth seekers. Any group of truth seekers that come up with truth similar to the teaching of the JW will be smeared by the precedents of this organization. |

broswilli:Hogwash, hogwash and more hogwash. There are sacred secrets in the Bible that God reveals only to his servants bit by bit.. No be rush something. The Bible says that in the last days (beginning from 1914), the understanding of the Scriptures would become clearer and the true knowledge would become abundant. See Daniel 12:4 As for when the actual end of this system of things would come, as in the actual day and time, nobody knows. Not even JESUS(Matthew 24:36) Only Jehovah God knows that. Jesus only gave a preview of what his followers should expect when the time of the end will draw very close. And that's he told them at Matthew 24 and Luke 21. |

broswilli: @broswilli, pick a hustle biko Like this now, anybody reading your comments will think you've gone nuts. The Christian organization of Jehovah's Witnesses is second to none! Any group that wants to imitate us should engage in the global campaign of preaching the good news of God's Kingdom—such as translation of Bibles/publications into less popular languages and reaching hearts of less privileged people — let's see how far they will go. Remember what is motivating Jehovah's Witnesses is what Jesus himself stated at Matthew 24:14. |
Re: Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Not Marry Other ' Christians '? by broswilli: 2:47pm On Jul 26, 2020 |
DappaD: 1914 is a wrong date based on your theology. 607 is a wrong starting time based on your flawed theology using Nebuchadnezzers dream. The Bible immediately explains the dream and now your leaders presumptuously added new meaning to a dream that the Almighty had solved the puzzle through Daniel the prophet. Who gave the JW the authority to add additional meaning to a revelation that had been revealed by Daniel. The Governing body of Jehovahs Witnesses are false prophets. 1 Like |

achorladey: This ideology of yours is exactly what Jesus meant by workers of iniquity! Matthew 7:23 God has spoken through his prophets, it was well documented, God's people of ancient times takes disciplinary actions against members who willfully turn against orders binding them as one. Jesus talked against lawlessness (iniquity), his first century followers takes disciplinary actions against defaulters amongst them, they even documented all of these and it's in every copy of the Bibles you can find. Now JWs are practicing exactly what is found written in the Bible as regards disciplinary actions, you are now pointing accusing fingers at them. OK tell us a better way to apply those Bible verses that JWs taught us and are implementing amongst themselves. You're turning the table around asking me if i'm Jesus, am i the only person subjecting myself to those rules? There are over 9,000,000 persons globally from different races and tongues and national groups who are willing to comply with those Bible injunctions. All i'm asking you to do is teach us a better way to comply with those Bible verses, that's all! |

A Jehovah witness friend I met in Ghana told me JWis the poorest of all christians cos their nonsense believe, that if u present two options of oil company work for them and teaching job that they will go for the teaching job just to have enough time for their street preaching.
