Janosky: Janosky my brother, why not ask him to present his church and the teachings of his church? The whole world knows that there are over 41,000 religious groups claiming Christians with contradicting teachings and conflicting doctrines, so how come he is so vast in the teachings of just one out of all the others if this single group is not the one Jesus was talking about? Jesus said "you are the light of the world, the city situated on the mountain top can't be hidden.....let the whole world know about you so they may see how fine you're performing and give glory to your father who is in heaven" Matthew 5:14-16 Of course Jesus is not talking about just one individual here otherwise no single individual can be noticed by the whole world! So how come Timalt mentioned three religious groups sharing the same opinion as Jehovah's Witnesses but can't substantiate their religious beliefs like this single group? 1 Like 1 Share |

Timalt:After you MISLEAD Nairaland forum that JWs paid#28m . Its $28m dollars and NOT $35m , I'm sorry about that. Na only JWs pay out of court settlements? You dey hide behind Catholic Church, oga Timalt hypocrite I challenge you to tell Nairaland forum the amount Catholic Church pay for Child sexual abuse settlement Inspite of all his EMPTY NOISES,Please see the Screenshot wey Timalt no get liver to show Nairaland forum You referenced a Watchtower study edition ALERTING ALL JWs about the harm and dangers of child sexual abuse, you no see am in that Watchtower ? JWs ZERO tolerance IS VERY OBVIOUS.. I challenge you to show Everyone here the Evidence that your Church and even you Timalt have ever reported a case of child abuse to the Police which led to the conviction of the offender(s). Na only JWs get their fears and misgivings about organ transplant, Na only JWs? You get Medical knowledge pass Medical professionals wey say them get FEARS AND MISGIVINGS ABOUT ORGAN TRANSPLANTS? Why did Timalt single out JWs for attacks ? Timalt confirmed BIGOT. Since the year 29CE, "the kingdom of God is at hand" even this last year 2019 " the kingdom of God is at hand" , Since Timalt no like Jesus Christ predictions ,Oga please go REMOVE am from your Bible

Timalt is calling the attention of everyone but instead of presenting his own religious doctrines he is preaching that of his rival, yet it's the teachings of his rival that has successfully achieved PEACE in the midst of those adhering to it! He said he doesn't judge other religions yet he claims to be a follower of the teachers who said all those not following him are doomed!

TATIME: The fact remains that most people don't really know what shamelessness means! How can you spend all your life day and night studying just one religious group to the extent you knew so much about them and you can't present a better performing group {Matthew 5:13-16} yet you want everyone to see that single religious group that you've dedicated so much time, effort and resources to study as the one and only evil out of over 41,000 others?

Janosky: Trying to pin me to a particular church no work now e say I dey support catholic because I said unlike the Jehovah's witnesses, their pope at least apologized. Your religion has refused to apologize for the abuse cases that has damaged many lives. You see how you speak too much and lie. E said 35 million dollars and when I caught the lie, e change mouth He's even saying na only us pay out of court settlement? It pains you because you can't pin me to a particular denomination. I don't belong to Paul or Apollos. I belong to christ. That concept is too big for you to understand. In the screenshot you shared below, hope you can see your religions name there too Your religion has been predicting the meaning of "this generation" since time immemorial. Now for the sixth time, your religion changed the meaning of "this generation" to mean overlapping generation. Don't worry. When all these governing body guys die, they will change it again. And he has finally admitted that they indeed taught that organ transplant was cannibalism. Lol. Now he is saying. They weren't the only ones who didn't subscribe to organ transplant. (no be only us defense for an organization that is supposedly directed by God's spirit ) The way this guy changes mouth like Chameleon is mind blowing. None of all of you answered the most important question. What is the emperical and biblical evidence you were chosen in 1919? Give us evidence you were the only religion chosen by God. Una ask me the denomination I belong to, I told you I worship in homes just like the first century Christians. It pained you because just like the Pharisees setting trap for Jesus, your trap didn't catch me Now answer mine. The onus lies on you and your cohorts to provide evidence. Anyway, I think it is clear to all onlookers the question you need to ask the jw's. The question they run from. Discussing any other questions with them is putting the cart before the horse. The most important thing is tell them to provide biblical and emperical evidence that they were chosen in 1919 as they teach, and watch them jakpa Thank you 1 Like |

Maximus69: Achorladey: Is the religious group of the JWs part of the 41,000 Maximus69: Yes is your answer? Achorladey: Does Timalt said your religious group is the one and only evil evil amongst the 41,000? Maximus69: What thou sayeth Maximus69? Achorladey: It seems reasonable that the destruction of “Babylon the Great” refers mainly to the destruction of the religious institutions, not to a wholesale slaughter of all religious people. Hence, most of Babylon’s former adherents will survive that destruction and, at least openly, will then likely try to distance themselves from religion, as indicated at Zechariah 13:4-6..........God's kingdom rule book chapter 21 paragraph 6 footnote Do you believe the above? Emphasis on MOST.........that's in the SUPERLATIVE. Then I am looking at the RATIONAL of your continuous CONDEMNATION of those you call CHRISTENDOM from the above PUBLICATION quote.

Timalt: Please next time you want someone to be ashamed of his activities, try make yours open for scrutiny as well. It's after comparison between two characters that one can be spoken of as better. Your persistence in presenting one group and their teachings without comparing with other existing groups hold no water Sir! ©Jehovah's Witnesses prophesy and it failed, so which other group is prophesying what the whole world has noted? ©Jehovah's Witnesses members were taken to court, so which other group has never been taken to court? Even some Churches do take cases of ownership to court! Please compare the clothed man with the naked and see what happens. If there is no religious group to stand side by side with Jehovah's Witnesses Organization for comparison, then Jesus' words can't be overemphasized:- You are the light of the world, the city situated on the mountain top can't be hidden! Matthew 5:14-16 Sorry Sir, all your criticism holds no water! |

TATIME: My standard is the bible not RCCG. I can challenge my pastor if he says anything that contradicts with the scripture. Can u say the same of u, without been disfellowshipped? My pastor doesn't know it all, he is not infallible, so if I point out a teaching of his that goes against scripture, he wouldn't see me as an apostate but will reason it out with me under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Can u say the same of u without been frowned at and reported to your local elders for disciplinary actions. My man!!!!!!! Where is your free will man?.....u have sold it to Ur governing council.

Re: Five (5) Misconceptions About Jehovah's Witnesses. by Janosky: 11:26am On Jun 02, 2020 |
Timalt:1) Timalt EMPTY NOISE as usual. You have ZERO PROOF for that claim. 2) Why is Timalt LYING on a public forum? That I said "I'm sorry about that," means I changed mouth? 3) Story story, . I'm a very jovial man. Forget ! 4). That is why I accused you of MISLEADING the public, whereas, I am objective to present the fact. 5). Bros, over 2000 years ago, Jesus said: "this generation will by no means pass away." This is year 2020. Please Sir, Go and quarrel with Jesus Christ. 6). I did not change the narrative. In the 1960's , Organ Transplant medically was still developing, JWs had MISGIVINGS about it just as medical professionals also had MISGIVINGS about it. The Evidence is there in the link you provided. 7). Let me tell you something none of you know.... Matthew 24:14. JWs knocking at your door is an act of witnessing to you. You already know we came to share the gospel with you. Whether you slam your door shut, or give them excuses not to listen,or verbally ask us to leave, you're just wasting your time. JWs have NOTHING to lose. . Since you're reading the Bible, have you ever read that a woman is pregnant for 9months? The fact that it's not expressly stated in your Bible does it invalidate the experience? |

freshboi88: I have happily achieved my aim for the thread. You don't need to keep dragging words with people who cannot provide a single biblical or emperical evidence to support their claim that when Jesus supposedly came to inspect religions, he chose the Jehovah's witness religion. For 6 days now. Not one single evidence I seriously don tire to laugh. For those reading this, when Jehovahs witnesses come to your homes, please be nice to them. They have been conditioned to expect persecution. It shocks them to see that people out there who they call "worldly" people are nice too. And also educate yourself with facts about them. Facts that even many of their members don't know. Goto www.jwfacts.com www.jwfacts.com uses a scholarly approach to the doctrines and policies of the Jehovah's witness religion. Also before joining them, make sure you listen to what their ex members have to say about them. After all you wouldn't buy electronics online without reading both the good and bad reviews. Seeing that I have overwhelmingly made my point, I'll be waiting for the next new thread about Jehovah's witnesses. On this thread, the horse has been over flogged already. For the sake of emphasis, My goal is educate people about the jehovah's witnesses. To show them the other side of the coin. Whether they decide to join the religion or not is entirely a personal decision. To the Jehovah's witnesses here who believe other Christians would die at Armageddon and only your religion will survive as taught by the pages of your watchtower. I hope you are ready for the said Armageddon. If you are living a double life, committing secret sins, if you have viewed pornography, whether soft porn or hard core pornography, you better go and see your elders o. If you are dating an unbeliever, if you engaged in loose conduct or unclean conduct or brazen acts, you better go and confess o. If you have engaged in mutual masturbation, if you have fondled the breast or buttocks or genitals of another person, go and confess o. If you have engaged in passionate kissing with someone you don't intend to marry and maybe even allowed your hands to wander to their buttocks during the act, you need spiritual help from the elders. If you have engaged in heavy petting, if you have gone to a club (wild party) better go and meet elders ọ. If you have been writing fake hours and placements on your report for preaching, you better go and confess o. If you have taken money from the envelope you carry around to people's homes to eat, remember the story of Achan o. Better go and confess. If you know you have confessed before in a judicial committee, but you know you did not tell the whole truth, and maybe now you are even holding an office of responsibility, remember the story of Ananaias and Saphira who did not tell the whole truth o. If you know you have sexted before, better go and report yourself now o. If you have sent or received naked pics, better run now to meet the elders o because we are in the last day of the last days of the last days of the last days. According to your doctrines If you don't meet your elders and confess any of these sins even if happened a long time ago, your service to Jehovah is a waste of time and you will be killed at Armageddon like the rest and your bodies will become manure on the surface of the earth. I wish everyone a productive week ahead. 1 Like 1 Share |
