God answers anyone that prays to him according to his will.

But you hold the belief that I'm not worshipping the same God with you, so how come I can pray to the same God that I don't worship? grin grin cheesy grin cheesy

I don't care since God said they are free to eat after draining. You can say whatever you want to say.

Emusan:


Funny enough you can't do without eating blood from animals you killed. So if eating or drinking of blood is the way you interpreted it then, you're not obeying that law.

Thou my post you quoted above is how your brother internationally add his own word into God's word.

Which you never addressed

I don't care which god you worship. Jehovah God doesn't answer unbelievers or insincere prayers.

This is my statement you responded to "So Jehovah can answer my prayer when I'm not JWs"

You said "God answers anyone that prays to him according to his will."

Now you're claiming that Jehovah doesn't answer unbelievers.

It's not about your prayers but the true God makes things go well for everyone!

"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
" Matthew 5:45

That's why armed robbers, hired killers, ritualists, terrorists do receive the good things of life like riches and fruit of the womb. So if you're telling them that God is against their prayers they'll look down on you because they feel their prayers were answered! smiley

Oh no wahala na. But why don't you support your interpretation of John 1:1 with the Bible itself? If you have something to offer I'm ready to learn.
1 Corinthians 8:6 NLV
[6]But for us,
There is one God, the Father
,
by whom all things were created,
and for whom we live.
And there is one Lord, Jesus Christ,
through whom all things were created,
and through whom we live.

Why did Paul say here that "there's one God, the Father"?


You are bothering me with your so much questions, why not ask the Holy Spirit to direct you? No matter how I explain to you, you will not be satisfied, you will still bring up several verses and ask me for answers. The fact is the verses that explains that Jesus claims He is God cannot be excluded from the Bible. We just have to understand that other verses that indicated that Jesus was under the authority of God was just referring to His human nature, not His Godly nature.

(1 Corinthians 8:6) But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

1 Corinthians 8:6 did not indicate that Jesus is not among the Godhead, it only indicated that God, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit is one. That verse was also emphasizing that Jesus is one, that though He has two natures, His Godly nature and His human nature but He is still one and not two.

The same way, fingers are united and connected to one another in one hand and they perform their duties with each other's backing, that is the way the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit is connected, they are one divine team

If Jesus was God and was equal to the Almighty GOD YHWH, he wouldn't have called Him his Father and God! John 17:3

Paul won't called on His name as he wrote in 1 Corin 1:2
1 Corinthians 1:2 NLV
[2]I am writing to God’s (the Father ) church in Corinth, to you who have been called by God (the Father) to be his own holy people. He made you holy by means of Christ Jesus (the son), just as he (God) did for all people everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours.

The last time i checked God made Jesus lord and messiah!
Acts of the Apostles 2:36 NLV
[36]“So let everyone in Israel know for certain that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, to be both Lord and Messiah!”

Peter won't accept the teaching of Paul.

The disciples didn't contradict each other. They understand God as one person, the Father!
1 Corinthians 8:6
[6]But for us,
There is one God, the Father,

    by whom all things were created,
    and for whom we live.
And there is one Lord, Jesus Christ,
    through whom all things were created,
    and through whom we live.

So you mean Peter, Paul and Thomas don't have church grin cheesy grin cheesy grin cheesy grin grin

They were part of the early church, united as one.

If a product is produced in US but sold in Nigeria. Let's say the name of the production company is Company X and it is owned by three unknown brothers John, Richard and Sam, if they write owned and produced by Big X on their website but they refuse to reveal their identities, people will keep speculating but they will never get their speculations right because they will only be looking for one owner, they can never understand that it is owned by a team of three people from the description written on the website.

A team always makes decisions collectively but if Richard, who is one of the team members volunteers to come to Nigeria to be the company's sale manager for a year because people are skeptical about the company and for the advancement of the company. He accepted to operate as the sale manager, so he cannot operate as the owner, he has to receive direct instructions for the owners as sale managers do. For Richard to lower himself this much and for others to support his mission, it shows that they love the company a lot. Richard will be working as a mere sale manager for the growth of the company, he will use that opportunity to reveal his true identity to people. He will also reveal the identity of his team to people by giving them the details of their functions and their individual contributions. Richard has two diferent natures, his nature as the CEO of the company is different from his nature as God.

Jesus added another nature when He came to the world, so He has two natures, His Godly nature and His human nature and He only came to the world with His human nature.

Definitely criticizing and insulting other religions, even wrongly accusing them is not bad. So you know your a human not an angel
He didn't even criticize any body or church, he only said "JWs have the purest form of worship" and that "roman Catholic influenced Christianity of today with their dogmas". And you know yourself that these are facts.

But you came shouting "don't criticize bla bla bla" and all you have been doing is criticizing, insulting and giving false accusations.

Instead of blindly accusing that they worship Satan and idols, i would rather you bring evidence.

The fact is Jesus criticized the religious leaders of his time.

Eliab isn't the chosen one, reason why God corrected Samuel.

Now, where did God correct Russell.

Yet despite the numerous predictions, 1914 is still your key days grin cheesy grin cheesy grin

This Janosky words below......


1 Samuel 16:6
When Jesse and his sons arrived, Samuel noticed Jesse's oldest son, Eliab. "He has to be the one the LORD has chosen," Samuel said to himself."

According to Samuel,is Eliab the Lord's chosen?


Samuel said that to HIMSELF. Russell didn't say the 1914 palaver to himself, he said it is GOD'S DATE upon which it is an ESTABLISHED one. He went ahead to broadcast it all over the world grin grin grin


Janosky quoting this account is to rubbish Samuel and his works by even trying to place them on equal footing.

Here is one below....


No matter where we may live on earth, God’s Word continues to serve as a light to our path and a lamp to our roadway as to our conduct and beliefs. (Ps. 119:105) But Jehovah God has also provided his visible organization, his "faithful and discreet slave", made up of spirit-anointed ones, to help Christians in all nations to understand and apply properly the Bible in their lives. Unless we are in touch with this channel of communication that God is using, we will not progress along the road to life, no matter how much Bible reading we do." Watchtower 1981 Dec 1 p.27


That place say no matter how much Bible reading we do. Now here is what.........

2 Timothy 3 : 16 All Scripture is inspired of God+ and beneficial for teaching,+ for reproving, for setting things straight,* for disciplining in righteousness,+ 17 so that the man of God may be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work.


According to your DOGMAS this is how 2 Timothy 3 : 16-17 should read.........

All Scripture is inspired of God+ and beneficial for teaching,+ for reproving, for setting things straight,* for disciplining in righteousness,+ 17 but the man of God cannot be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work unless he is in touch with the channel of communication that God is using.
