broswilli: Please! Please!! Please!!! I will love to believe that statement because i hate this carrying bags from house to house in the name of JEHOVAH or Jesus, because i never knew anything about these personalities if not for this so Holy book Bible. Please convince me further Sir, for i was once a military Officer and we soldiers don't believe in killing people as most people have been taught. Our aim is to make peace by forcing the enemies to surrender their weapons while we also use weapons, force and records of casualties to threaten them. But this so called Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses have performed the greatest miracle in the history of mankind! Can you imagine that they've made over 9,000,000 (still counting) individuals from different races under the heavens to surrender their weapons, and not only that but made them vow never to pick up weapons against their fellowman again nor learn about war for life! Micah 4:1-3 That book Bible referred to one first century Jewish carpenter who turned himself to a religious teacher "Prince of Peace" {Isaiah 9:6} can you imagine that this guy taught his followers never to use weapons but told them "from now you will be catching men alive" {Luke 5:10} please this is exactly what all those military forces you're seeing are trying to do without killing anyone! Yet instead of achieving this millions die yearly because of wars and military related cases! Jesus said "by their FRUIT you will know them" {Matthew 7:20} before this statement he said "good trees will not bear routine fruit neither can an evil tree bear fine fruit" Matthew 7:16-18 So i'm begging you in the name of Jesus to please save me from the hands of Jehovah's Witnesses because they've presented the greatest evidence that they're the ones working with that harmless Prince of Peace Jesus! John 14:27 God bless you in advance as you do so! 1 Like |

broswilli: Yes! It is this ‘false teaching’ that has brought nearly 9million people from across the planet — White, Black, Indian, Hispanic, Asian, Orientals to come together and have ONE line of thought (1Corinthians 1:10, Philippians 2:2) towards maintaining peace among them(Matthew 5:9, Ephesians 4:3) because Jesus Christ who is their leader is the ‘Prince of Peace’ (Isaiah 9:6,7)and ALL of them doing the work he gave them to do — global preaching of the good news of God's Kingdom(Matthew 24:14, Luke 16:16) So whatever you want to call it, this ‘false teaching’ has helped many people see the world from a different perspective, to lead simple lives, not engaging in world politics(Daniel 2:44, Matthew 6:9,10, John 18:36) because each one of us has passport to God's Kingdom, not engaging in strife/war(Psalm 46:9, Isaiah 2:4, Matthew 26:52) and so on. So leave this ‘false teaching’ for us biko DISCLAIMER: If you don't understand sarcasm, you're never going to understand my post up there. 1 Like |

Maximus69: You have abandon other Scriptures carry Matt 7:23 join body Psalms 1:1 was the main aim of the QUESTION. I will repeat my question AGAIN does leaving JWS or not WALKING with JWS and its ORGANIZATION equate not WALKING with RIGHTEOUS ONES? based on Psalms 1:1. Until you AGREE you are JESUS then I will consider the other Scriptures. Leave IDEOLOGY for one side. Na your IDEOLOGY I dey see so far? |

Theevilone: So many funny points, I'm thinking of which to address But to your claim about our choice of employment. You will likely find jw in every kind of employment from the most menial to the most corporate office. But you will not find them in politics, it any job that destroys life, eg, tobacco, military, or extreme sports, etc. Why? because we place the love of God first in our heart then others 3 Likes |

achorladey: That's why i always say "I'm through with you" Can you now see that you've got nothing to say? God's people have always been known to be one under the same arrangement, and whoever refuse to comply with the arrangement is stigmatized as an outcast! Matthew 18:17 So if you don't know any better way of compliance to those Bible injunctions, then it simply means Whoever is not walking with JW Organization is the ones David was talking about in Psalms 1:1 |

Thetruthalways: From my post, despite being a general observation, all you could come up with is to attack the Bible? How do you stupidity assume I read the Bible and that I am a Christian? Anyways, this is typical of anyone practising any religion that is cult-like. They are usually misinformed, non tolerant and believe they can defend God, sometimes by killing. If this was physical discuss, you would have slit my throat in the name of Allah. Smh How can you serve God by killing another human being? You mean your God is pleased when you kill in his name? Or you riot in his name and destroy properties? Are you kidding me rn? Are you mad? I'll reiteriate that religion that is offended with public scrutiny, especially Islam, is a cult and detrimental to sanity and civilised peaceful coexistence in any society. 1 Like |

Maximus69: Maximus69: Whoever is not walking with JW Organization is the ones David was talking about in Psalms 1:1 Achorladey: that's what you should have stated CLEARLY in the first INSTANCE instead of GIVING me IDEOLOGY . In one of your comments here on NAIRALAND you admitted no ORGANIZATION including JWS is free of SINNERS . I believe what has happened to you is a case of USING Scriptures to fit your THEOLOGY. Psalmist didn't write JWS ORGANIZATION in Psalms 1:1 |

Maximus69:The Jehovahs Witnesses started out as a Bible Students Organization. Their leader was Charles Taze Russell, who sincerely studied the Bible with others with an open mind. After his death a man named Rutherford seized control of this organization and there was a split. He renamed it Jehovahs Witnesses and named himself generalissimo. From there he made sure he had complete control. This organisations from then on continued to spit out false prophesies. During the time of the first president if there is a mistake a sincere apology would be made but today, they blame false prophesies on the followers. Sometimes they say the followers did not understand them. These false prophesies made them have a significant drop in 1975. Now many persons are tired of the tight monitoring of members, many man made rules that are made to control members, Sale of kingdom halls paid by congregations were sold out and anyone who questioned was thrown out. Shunning was also a law they made that made many persons to leave the organization. Many persons are leaving the organization in America and Canada because of the things. I am studying the Bible with this group https://beroeans.net/ they are into debunking falsehood and still upholding Bible truth. Meanwhile the original Bible students formed by Russell still exist. They are against war and other vile things. Many persons that left the organization are now atheist but many are still Christians shunning war and othe vices. You can learn more from the website I provided above. I started attending a regular church. I don't believe everything they teach but I attend for fellowship. |

This discussion is a very vital one that we Christian need to look into because we claimed we are all followers of Christ but we are divided in belief.... well I have a lot to say about this but not today. I was in this situation some months ago, I am a Baptist and my partner she is Catholic, we love each other and we have solve this particular problem from the onset of our courtship but something happened some months ago and what I begin to hear is that if you can follow me to my church (Catholic ) she can continue again because she can leave her church and she even quote a verse in the Bible to support her ignorant, Bible say man shall leave his father and mother and clinch to his wife.....lol. Seriously I try all I could but to no avail and that's how everything we have been build for long end and seriously I have loss interest in ladies and I prefer to be single. |

Jehovah's Witnesses are the real Christians.They are the only group of religion today that follows the Bible principles.Others are just church goers.You don't become a Christian just by going to churches.I have moved with many people who claims to be Christians and my informed finding shows me that only JW can confidently show you why they are doing this or not doing that from the Bible, you might not believe it though but again you can see it is from the Bible.Others can't substantiate most of their believes than to just say, I follow my heart. 1 Like |

rottennaija: People with clear minds will understand this video more than you. If a child is disfellowshipped... He still enjoys the duties of his parents 100% but when it comes to spiritual routines.... He will do it on his own until he has fully repented of his or her wrongdoing. If a sheep is sick, it will be stupid to leave it still with the other sheep. A wise shepherd will remove the sick one and treat the disease in an isolated place and when that sheep is healthy again, it will be brought back together in the herd. |

I don't know where you got that statistics from... We didn't join Jehovah's organization because we were feeling hungry or we needed money, as many of us are contended with what we have. We heard the truth, and we were hungry for more, then after learning about Jehovah our God, we were inspired to love him. Being a JW wasn't inspired by money, but by the love we have for our God, Jehovah, so to speak. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

We take to heart the inspired words of Peter when he said: “At this Peter began to speak, and he said: ‘Now I truly understand that God is not partial, but in every nation the man who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him.’” — Acts 10:34,35 Whether Black, White, Asian, Hispanic, Oriental, there is that identifying mark of ‘LOVE’ in our gatherings as a group (John 13:34,35) @italicized, like I've earlier mentioned on this thread, if you people are going to tell lies then please do it intelligently!
