solite3: false jw's believe that mighty God is Jesus and almighty God is Jehovah Christians know that where the Bible uses the names of almighty God and mighty God, it is speaking of the same one true God. Jehover is called mighty God in the Bible, very many more times than He is called almighty God. 1 Like |

sol, false jw keep quoting things such as "Jesus said to worship God" not knowing that God and the word is God. Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. they can never understand, not having the Spirit. www.nairaland.com/attachments/3704758_verse22_giff1affdaf132c2b0820981af68b6147d5 www.nairaland.com/attachments/3704760_jesusisjehovah_gifc481fd19266bbfb832bf8799776cc213 1 Like |

So if Dolphinheart believes there are other God's then he needs to figure out which God he recognises-which God he worships? Jehovah means Lord right? But he treats the Lord, like this, the JW's had given Him the above name above all. The Almighty. So without him ever understanding it, the JW's had recognised the lord as the Almighty, we Christians know God and Jesus carries the same name. So the question is, "which god do they truly worship in their hearts? JW's plus the Mormons and the Seven day Adventist walk side by side, they all believe in the same Rubbish-and when we look into it a little further we have nutters everywhere-some believe they were reincarnated and they returned back as Jesus, and there followers will always be followers. All of these denominations have got to answer to the Lord when Judgement day arrives. It's a large risk to take, Jesus said go out unto all nations preaching His Gospel-not their gospel.. Many like the JW's believe Jesus was the Archangel Michael-so the truth is they worship after angels-and of course it is forbidden to do so. But do they listen-preachers a business people-they either preach the truth about the gospel, or they steer it away from God's creation. We just need to see the evidence around us.. solite3: |

But when people try and force others to believe in their lies-they don't become nice anymore-they are Wolves in sheep clothing. I speak to many JW's nicely-they will even try and preach their own gospel to you-but as soon as you reject their gospel, they turn their backs and black list you-from them for eternity. Yes they are nice people, nice enough to walk away. Charity works doesn't make people Christians-even the Atherist are great on charity work. So you are Catholic so why don't you become a JW-your hearts already directed that way. But I have a better solution for you-why don't you become a Born again Christian and get to know Christ personally in your heart.

I believe you-but the problem is-the truth about Christ isn't preached at any schools any longer-only the JW's and the Muslims can quote their beliefs on innocent Children these days. Jesus said all those who believe in Me will be persecuted, and sure enough we are, Jesus told us these times will come. We don't hate you-I don't, but I don't believe in any of your false religion either. I am always the one to be black listed from you at all times. It is not because I am rude-its because the truth of God is inside me, and not in you. The word Jehovah is included in the King James seven times Jehovah is in [Genesis, Judges and Psalms Once, while it appears in Isaiah and Exodus twice} But none is found in the New Testament. You should look up on the 1611 KJ's, Jehovah doesn't exist. And if Jehovah is the most high as you claim him to be-then why is His name only written seven times in the Old testament? And we can't forget it was the JW's who were printing the King James in America on their pressers, changing a few names here and there. Barristter07: |

Try this one for size-The most obvious proof that Jehovah Witnesses spell YHWH wrong, as, "Jehovah" is the fact that the letter "J" doesn't exist in Hebrew Greek Latin, further the English language did not have the letter "J" before about 1500 AD, for example the very first edition of the KJV printed in 1611 AD Contained no "J" Not even one, instead the letter "I" is used for Jews. |

They always attack christian doctrine and praise their self and achievement Then i said within me this is not a mark of a true servant of christ. The level of vitriol spited out against christians baffled me. I suspected there was more than meets the eye to this. Only satan could attack God like this. They specialise in using human logic so as to attract unsuspecting victim. The way of christ is truly narrow. All organised religions are just mare instrument of enslaving humans.

YOU ALWAYS LIKE CHANGING THE TOPIC WHEN EXPOSED brocab:Ac 2:24 But God resurrected him by releasing him from the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held fast by it. Ro 8:11 If, now, the spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, the one who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also make your mortal bodies alive through his spirit that resides in you. 2Co 4:14knowing that the One who raised Jesus up will raise us up also with Jesus and will present us together with you. Ro 1:4but who with power was declared God’s Son according to the spirit of holiness by means of resurrection from the dead—yes, Jesus Christ our Lord. YOU LIE AGAIN, NONE OF THOSE VERSES SAY "THE SPIRIT RAISED JESUS FROM THE DEAD! {Romans 8:11} clearly says that God will resurrect believers "through His Spirit" And In {John 2:19} Jesus predicts He will raise Himself from the dead. 1. Your statement about romans 8: 11, is a lie, no wonder you could not quote the verse. 2.You have read the scriptures that tells you that God resurrected Jesus . read this also : Ac 3:26 God, after raising up his Servant, sent him to you first to bless you by turning each one of you away from your wicked deeds.” Ac 5:30 The God of our forefathers raised up Jesus, whom you killed, hanging him on a stake. Paul confirms who the God that resurrected Jesus is : Ga 1:1Paul, an apostle, neither from men nor through a man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him up from the dead, Eph 1:17,20 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the accurate knowledge of him. :20 which he exercised toward Christ when he raised him up from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, Peter also confirms who that God is: [b]1Pe 1:3Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, for according to his great mercy he gave us a new birth to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 3. Everyone(except you) agrees that Jesus is not the same person as the father. now did Jesus predict he will raise himself as you claim, thereby contradicting what the disciples said on several occasions that God, the father of Jesus resurrected Jesus ,his son? Such a view would conflict with galatians 1:1, which ascribes the resurrection of Jesus to the Father, not to the Son. Jesus used a similar mode of expression, at Luke 8:48, Jesus is quoted as saying to a woman: “Your faith has made you well.” Did she heal herself? No; it was power from God through Christ that healed her because she had faith. (read acts 10:38 ) Likewise, by his perfect obedience as a human, Jesus provided the moral basis for the Father to raise him from the dead, thus acknowledging Jesus as God’s Son. Because of Jesus’ faithful course of life, it could properly be said that Jesus himself was responsible for his resurrection.If Jesus has not been Faithfull to God, God would not have resurrected him! 4. The scriptures says Jesus died, Jesus was killed, he was raised from the dead. The scripture also says God cannot die, therefore , the God that resurrected Jesus cannot be Jesus. 5. The difference between the personality that resurrected Jesus and Jesus himself is so glaring, the scriptures says that God did not only resurrect Jesus, he also directed Jesus to where he should go first and also made hIm sit at his right hand. Imagine,a God that is said cannot die, now died, now resurrected himself , now sat at the right hand of himself wow! The scriptures does not teach such doctrines. Was it the Father the Son or the Holy Spirit?the scriptures have answered you, Jesus father, the one who gave life to Jesus , resurrected Jesus. The basic answer Dolphinheart to that-God raised Him {Jesus to life} {Acts 2:32} The Father is God and the Father raised His Son to life on the third day after His crucifixion {Romans 6:4, 2 Corinthians 13:4} The Spirit is also God, and the Spirit also had part in raising Jesus up from the dead. The Son is also God, and the Son, too, was responsible for His own resurrection.Jesus lived by the power of God, God used his power to resurrect Jesus. After resurrection, Jesus sat down at the right hand of God who resurrected him! Dolphinheart how can a dead man resurrect Himself?A dead man cannot resurrect himself, he knows nothing and is not conscious of anything when he dies! Answer Jesus was more then a man who died, He was the eternal Son of God, "INCARNATED" Wicked men could kill His body, but they could not change His eternal nature or diminish His divine power Read {John 10:17-18} Jesus say's something that no mortal could ever say, I lay down My life, only to take it up again. No-one takes it from Me, but I lay it down on My own accord. I have the Authority to lay it down and the Authority to take it up again. "No-one else in the history of the world has ever had the Authority both to lay down His life and raise it up again.1. haba, but you kept on saying Jesus is not the son of God!, you mouth dey change anyhow! 2.The scripture say Jesus emptied himself and took the form of man. The prophesies tell us how lowly Jesus will become. everything Jesus did, every miracle was by God's power given to him by God. He did not do anything on his own , but did the things he was told to do by the one who sent him! 3. If you had read that verse very well, you would have known how Jesus came about that authority, but you prefer reading the scriptures halfway!, therefore you do not know why jesus says he has authority to receive his life again! that is why you could not understand the underlined below: [b]Ac 2:23, 24This man, who was handed over by the determined will and foreknowledge of God, you fastened to a stake by the hand of lawless men, and you did away with him. John 19:11Jesus answered him: “You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been granted to you from above. This is why the man who handed me over to you has greater sin.” Ac 4:27, 28For truly both Herod and Pontius Pilate with men of the nations and with peoples of Israel were gathered together in this city against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed,28 to do what your hand and counsel had determined beforehand to occur. Dolphinheart furthermore, Jesus said I Am the resurrection and the life: {John 11:25} He did not say My Father is the resurrection. He claimed to be the resurrection Himself "LIFE RESIDES WITH JESUS" And He has absolute Authority over life and death. {Revelation 1:18}read the scriptures brocab and understand better, do not read one verse and leave others that give a better or more explanation of what jesus said . Yes , jesus said he is the resurrection and the life, why? because he knows that it is only through him that Jehovah resurrects and gives life to his loyal ones , look at the verses below and understand better. Ro 6:23For the wages sin pays is death, but the gift God gives is everlasting life by Christ Jesus our Lord. *God gives evaluating life through one person, jesus Christ! 1Jo 2:1, 2My little children, I am writing you these things so that you may not commit a sin. And yet, if anyone does commit a sin, we have a helper with the Father, Jesus Christ, a righteous one.2And he is a propitiatory sacrifice for our sins, yet not for ours only but also for the whole world’s. * we can't gain life if our sins are not fogIving, we can't come to the father except through the helper Jesus. In our bid to get to the father, we have a helper, Christ Jesus! 1Pe 1:3, 4 Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, for according to his great mercy he gave us a new birth to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4to an incorruptible and undefiled and unfading inheritance. It is reserved in the heavens for you, * Can you see the true source of evaluating life, if you can't, their is little I can do!, we gain life through Jesus , but life comes from the father, God almighty , the most high God. Heb 5:9And after he had been made perfect, he BECAME RESPONSIBLE for everlasting salvation to all those obeying him, Heb 5:10 because he has been designated by God a high priest in the manner of Mel·chizʹe·dek[/color] no wonder Jesus could say this : Joh 5:26For just as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted also to the Son to have life in himself. * do you see the one who granted Jesus to have life?. The scriptures teaches us that God sent Jesus so that those who exercise faith in Jesus will have life!, yet sou could not understand why Jesus said he is the resurrection and the life!, I tire for you o!. I told you to read John chapter 17, you refused, see what it is causing you now! GO AND READ IT AND SEE WHO EVERYTHING BELONGS TO! Dolphinheart Jesus is God, He would say, He could raise up His body on the third day, because He is part of the one being of God.wrong understanding, Jesus and the father are not the same being! Who resurrected Jesus from the dead? God did, by that we mean all 3 persons were involved, or three persons participated in creationJESUS DIED SIR!, THE SCRIPTURES SAY'S GOD CANNOT DIE. THE SCRIPTURES SAY'S THE FATHER RESURRECTED JESUS SEVERAL TIMES. JESUS CANNOT BE THE GOD WHO RESURRECTED HIM AND SAT HIM AT HIS RIGHT HAND. IT'S LIKE SAYING JESUS RESURRECTED HIMSELF, SAT HIMSELF AT HIS OWN RIGHT HAND AND TALKED TO HIMSELF, HABA! What one should take from Jesus statement is Christ's unshakeable confidence in the Father to resurrect Him to everlasting spirit life. Just moments before His death, Christ cried out: “Father, into Your hands I commit My spirit” ( Luke 23:46 )—showing His total trust in God the Father. Finally I leave you with this verse, Christ knew who could resurrect him, he knew he was not the one to resurrect himself!, he knew the one who had the power to do so, wHo has promised to do so. King James Version Heb 5:7Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death,and was heard in that he feared; GOD, THE FATHER, HIS FATHER, THE ALMIGHTY, THE MOST HIGH GOD , HEARD JESUS AND RESURRECTED HIM!

Barristter07: It's so dishearten seeing people who always claim to be knowledgeable and endorsed with scriptural understanding twisting the word of God as a result of the Anti-Christ spirit in them. Let see whether Jesus is the Most High or not. "For the LORD most high is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth." Psalm 47:2 KJV According to your Organization Jesus is the ideal King for God's kingdom as he(Jesus) is POWERFUL ENOUGH to help people because he(Jesus) will rule over the EARTH FROM HEAVEN. Good News Ch. 7 pg 14 Revelation calls Jesus "The King of kings" Again, the Hebrew word for Most High is '<'elyown>' which means: 05945. Nwyle 'elyown, el-yone' from 5927; an elevation, i.e. (adj.) lofty (compar.); as title, the Supreme:--(Most, on) high(-er, -est), upper(-most). See how Psalmist used this for Jehovah "For thou, LORD (Jehovah), art high above (elyown) all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods" Psalm 97:9 KJV Yet in the New Testament it was Jesus who was exalted far above heaven and all gods. I can give you more than three instances where Jesus was directly link with the name MOST HIGH but let me stop here and see your respond.

Yes , a mighty god, but he is not the same god as the father, the father is the almighty God, the supreme being, the most high God, the one jesus and the disciples told us to worship.this are my words not yours, why are my statements added when quoting you. Isaiah 43:10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: [b]before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.ill reply you when you correct your post, I keep on finding my statements among your post when quoting you, I have stopped trying to edict what you posted , I'll reply according to what I see when I quote you. By the way are you saying the scriptures contradicted itself, cos you refuse to explain why the disciples say their are many gods and who those God's Jehovah is judging in their middle are! 1 Like |

So if Jehovah doesn't mean God-then how is it, you all treat him as He is God? Jehovah is the most high. dolphinheart: |
