tctrills: So you are lying that some other religions apart from the one and only true Christian group (Jehovah's Witnesses) are saying the same thing about being the only religion God approved shey? tctrills:Guy if we're talking about members of religion on this planet Buddhists and Islam each have more members than Catholics: https://youtube.com/shorts/qBACXJFGFuk?si=acvHPLUEbgT5uy2w are you saying they're also preaching zealously and industriously teaching like Jesus commanded his disciples? And as for Catholics whose members are in the army killing one another during political struggles, are you saying they're also disciples of Christ who commanded his disciples never to raise weapons against anyone? In fact you're becoming more and more hypocritical than ever, Jesus commanded his disciples to LOVE their fellow believers just as he love them {John 13:34-35} Catholics who aren't even interested in what Jesus taught are your favorite when talking about evangelizing which supposed to turn people into peace lovers shey? Matthew 5:43-48 You can run o but you can't hide! 1 Like 1 Share |

tctrills:So they're not Christians because according to Christ his disciples must seize every opportunity to preach and teach as in MARKET their faith. Ọmọ that's the import of Talents in the Bible book of Matthew 25:14-29 We must MARKET the faith as Revelations says we sell it freely! Revelations 22:17 |

tctrills: Jesus had thousands of followers who came to eat the miraculous food he provided during his ministry but when it's time to talk about real disciples who are doing the work he assigned only 120 met at Pentecost. So out of that number you got for the church how many are doing the work Jesus assigned? If it's just about anyhow increase Islam is the fastest growing religion on this planet today are they preaching and teaching what Christ commanded? Matthew 28:19-20 |

MaxInDHouse:That's the question I should be asking you. If it took Winners chapel only 30 years to get 6 million people then you are the ones with the problem. They are doing much better than you. They have a more effective missionary work than you do. In 30 years of JW history you guys were not even in 10 countries but winners is in 147 countries in just 30 years. Question, who is doing the work. Note, most Winners chapel members were not born into the church, they are converts but we have more JW born into the church than converts. I advise that you guys humble yourselves and come learn as apprentice under Winners. |

tctrills:How to make bench warmers or real disciples? Ọmọ Jesus wasn't interested in quantity but quality that's why he wasn't bothered when all his disciples abandoned him and left only the twelve who were his cousins from the same area. John 6:66-68 So Jehovah's Witnesses are making disciples who are zealously preaching and industriously teaching in all their neighbourhood {Matthew 28:19-20} all these preachers and teachers have vowed never to raise weapons against anyone again just as Christ Jesus commanded!

MaxInDHouse: How to make bench warmers or real disciples? Ọmọ Jesus wasn't interested in quantity but quality that's why he wasn't bothered when all his disciples abandoned him and left only the twelve who were his cousins from the same area. John 6:66-68 Jesus Christ was interested in saving all souls. He wanted his gospel to get to all and to give everyone the opportunity to be saved. Now get me, I know your religion is completely false but I still commend you guys for your efforts to spread your beliefs. But its not up to you or I to decide who is doing a better job. If we use the available metrics, it would seem the Winner' chapel for example is doing a better Job but I am reminded of the words of Paul. 14 And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear. 15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will: 16 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: 17 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice. So Jehovah's Witnesses are making disciples who are zealously preaching and industriously teaching in all their neighbourhood {Matthew 28:19-20} all these preachers and teachers have vowed never to raise weapons against anyone again just as Christ Jesus commanded! Matthew 26:52 Mention the commandment of Jesus your church is working to achieve! As I already told you, Jesus Christ did not command his followers not to fight wars or use weapons. I also asked you, would you use a weapon on your wife's rapist? |

tctrills:You want it to be false since we have told you that unless you're a member you can't be saved! tctrills:So to attack a criminal is the same as going to war shey? Well Jesus used a rope to drive away those doing what is wrong but he commanded his disciples never to raise weapons against anyone! Matthew 26:52 Import: Lawbreakers are doing what is wrong so they can be attacked to stop them but when people are bringing weapons with the aim of taken control that is WAR not a rapist! 1 Like |

MaxInDHouse: So JW can fight against lawbreakers right? So JW can raise weapons against criminals? Very interesting. Was it the bible that said you should lift arms against criminals but not in war. These are the false commandments of men. |

MaxInDHouse:So because I love you, and I don't want you to continue in error, I would take my time to teach and explain Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3 to you. Isaiah 2:2-4 2 And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. 3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. 4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. Now Let's compare this to other verses in the Bible. Let's do it one point at a time. First let's start with verses 4 and 5 of the passage you quoted Micah 4. 4-5 4 But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid: for the mouth of the Lord of hosts hath spoken it. 5 For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever. So you see, it talks of a time when everyone would walk in the name of God. A time when the government would be in his hands. It is talking of a period of peace in the entire world. 1. Christ would reign in Jerusalem. Jeremiah 3:17 17 At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of the LORD; and all the nations shall be gathered unto it, to the name of the LORD, to Jerusalem: neither shall they walk any more after the imagination of their evil heart. Luke 1:30-33 And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.” People will know the word of God in that day Habakkuk 2:14 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. Isaiah 11:9 9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea. So these passages talk about a period where the earth will be filled with the word of God. This is talking of a future time not about JW |

tctrills:Testing the beliefs of a group is not by reading the Bible to argue rather it's by testing if what they believe is WORKING OUT WHAT GOD PROMISED IN THE BIBLE! James 2:18-26 You mentioned about 6 different religions contradicting themselves in teachings so which of them exactly is doing the works of faith if truly you're sincere? Your heart is unpurified with indecision! James 4:8 tctrills:It's like you need to be schooled on this topic. Guy if you attack a rapist and he eventually die in the process no court of law will free you, you will be charged with murder but if you're carrying weapons to war no court will charge you because it's a matter of which side you're supporting so no matter how many people you kill it's justified. Jesus taught his disciples not to do this because they will be compelled by politicians to start killing one another. So when you attack a rapist he or she must not die which means you're still keeping that rule that says you must not kill that's what Jesus instill in the hearts of his disciples! tctrills:Fighting against lawbreakers is not what we do rather we are trying to save someone's life but when we are to take side that's what we must not do! 1 Like 1 Share |

tctrills: Ọmọ you're trapped! This verse said people (from other religions) will walk in the name of his god note that in this case God's word is telling you that each person will say he believe in God but they can't do so in faith with any group of worshipers just as you and many on Nairaland are in fact doing today. But JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES will walk as a group please read it again but this time around do so slowly! "Each person will walk in the name of his god" means you're not associating with a group therefore you're alone with your personal god (lower case indicates it's not the Almighty but a god best known or understood by the person worshiping it). "WE will walk in the name of OUR God" meaning an ORGANIZATION of worshipers. That's why i keep asking you to present the group that's practicing what God's word teaches better than Jehovah's Witnesses! 1 Like |

MaxInDHouse: During WW2 the US and UK were trying to save millions of lives and to give freedom to hundreds of millions. Stop adding manmade laws to the bible. God never asked his people not to fight in wars. God never told his people not to lift arms. Please go and read your bible. |

tctrills:Jesus said: “You heard that it was said: ‘You must love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ However, I say to you: Continue to love your enemies and to pray for those who persecute you, so that you may prove yourselves sons of your Father who is in the heavens, since he makes his sun rise on both the wicked and the good and makes it rain on both the righteous and the unrighteous. For if you love those loving you, what reward do you have? Are not also the tax collectors doing the same thing? And if you greet your brothers only, what extraordinary thing are you doing? Are not also the people of the nations doing the same thing? You must accordingly be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect" Matthew 5:34-48 God's people were given the go ahead to kill the enemies of pure worship in Bible times so who are the enemies of pure worship that Jesus supported us to kill today? Ọmọ WISDOM is in the words of Christ. Fernando from Brazil and i from Nigeria are both disciples of Christ Jesus, we are both given the assignment to go and make disciples for our Master, Lord and King so because of war between the two countries if i support Nigeria and Fernando support Brazil will i kill my fellow disciple maker or not? Now if i should kill my fellow disciple maker due to politics who will continue doing the work our Master assigned to us in Brazil? You know nothing about Christ or Christianity! 1 Like |

MaxInDHouse:So let's get a few things. God wants us to love yeteven God commanded war. What does that teach you, fighting in a war is not against God's commandment to love. The same God that commanded love is the same that commanded war hence war is not a sin. Please point out the passage where God ban wars, I am waiting. Remember, no guesswork |
