Tithing is not giving, tithing means a percentage, giving means more or less. Tithing was put in place as a law, giving was always a freewill, two different meanings. You tithe because you were taught to tithe, you were given twisted scriptures, so now you believe, spreading the false gospel further into the system, you have managed to sell your souls over to the devil, leading millions away to walk your same path of destruction.You can run, but you cant hide, the lord will send you another true Christian and he/she will witness to you on this same topic. Cant you see, the lords calling His people, away from riches and mega Churches such as these, many have been called, but few are chosen. Yep you must be proud, knowing you are prosperous' making easy money from innocent churches naming your riches a spiritual blessing, giving false hope to the poor, collecting all they have, week after week, and who receives the blessings you retrieved, "No-one". Riches gives no other options but to twist and turn bible scriptures around just for financial Gain. Well done good and faithful servants.The world had seen the damages you prosperity preachers have coursed, you are just another worldly business, men and women with corrupt minds, destitute of the truth, who think that godliness is away to make financial gain, Jesus said from such withdraw yourselves. Hmmm do I live in poverty? "NO" Let me look around, wait with out ripping anybody off I am blessed, I have the Lord who blesses me, who encourages me, who teaches me, loves me, and promised me He will never leave me. He said when I ask pray to him in my secret place, and what I ask for, He will give it to me-He said the Father already knows what you need, just pray and he will reward you. So I pray and receive. I am satisfied. but sorry to disappoint you I don't live in poverty, I live for Christ and I live in the comforts of a good and stable home. ` Jesus said to the rich man give all what you have to the poor, and come follow Me. But the rich man walked away sorrowful, Jesus then said it is easier of a camel to walk through the eye of a needle then for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven. Be proud, and teach the false tithing doctrine to the public, remind them they are cursed with a curse, if they refuse to bring in 10% into the storehouse. While you pastors are filling up your pockets with silver and gold, buying fancy cars M/bikes and jets, mega homes, mega Churches, buying and selling merchandise-all tax free, retrieving government handouts for your schoolings and collages, Wearing fancy suits, and the women wearing costly clothing with pearls and jewels, sitting in the best places. WHILE THE POOR ARE OUTSIDE HUNGRY HOMELESS REJECTED AND WEARING NONE.Joshthefirst: Unfortunately for you this is the last time I will respond to your post in detail as you are resorting to foolishness in order to cling to your doctrine of smallness and povertyI am rich with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, and I am also prosper in finances, as the seed of Abraham. I have accepted Christ into my heart and in no way have I compared him with money. I do not worship mammon. I am simply prosperous as my father is prosperous. If it pains you so much that I am blessed in this way I advice you to receive Jesus and his blessings into your life as well.
You always bring up the widow while she actually proves my point. I am a giver, and tithing is giving. And mark my words, you are foolish, if you think that you will be able to give as sacrificially as that widow when you have a problem with people giving a small 10%. If you have a problem with 10%, then you obviously have a problem with 100%. Change your mindset of withholding and be generous in giving to the kingdom of God and you will be blessed.

Please are you for tithing or against tithing? If you are against tithing then what authority do you have in telling me how to tithe towards God?
btw, in those days they dealt mostly in stock crops and merchandise. In these days, we deal mostly with circulating finances and paper money.
It seems you are ignorant, not knowing the scriptures or the power of god. Abraham didn't give back merchandise that didn't belong to him. When people go to war and recover merchandise, it is called spoil and is claimed by the victors of war. Abraham went to war and recovered spoil, he paid tithes on the spoil, then he delivered it to the kings, so that they will not say their spoil made Abraham rich. I find it hard to take you seriously because you do not know the word, and you seem to have little comprehension skills too. And you're beginning to insult my person.
I and my congregation cater for the pastor. Because you should not muzzle the ox that treads the grain and a labourer is worthy of his wages.
My pastor is paid because he is a labourer who shepherds my local church and a labourer is worthy of his wages. You seem not to support the care giving of men of God. If so, you are cruel and selfish. Even Jesus had sponsors who gave him food and shelter and women who ministered to him.
And when you tithe, you receive the blessing of the tither. simple.
 what are you saying? can you do the work of the Lord alone? you who cannot even pay tithe how am I supposed to assume you sponsor Gods work?
My church is reaching out to the world, and from what you've said so far I do not even think you have a local congregation. we are reaching out to the world, and we are rich and filled with comfort, because our Father is the Father of all mercies and the God of all comfort.
Stay there complaining and refusing to tithe. Poor men don't take the gospel anywhere. they only complain about even the most basic of giving, and they remain in poverty.
The Kingdom of God suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. Violent people like me take the Kingdom of God by force to the ends of the earth. We give everything, and we are rich and powerful and influential. We will continue to do what we do. stay there complaining about giving tithes.
And I do not think I will reply you again. |

Hmmm" let me see, "Pentecostal" Pentecostal Churches have many names written above their Churches, like the Baptise, or lets say AOG, or COC, some Churches use names such as Hill songs, so they could be recolonized by the public, and they are easy to find in the directory.But the main thing is they are pentecostal Christians. Like the JW's they also have different names to their many Churches spread across the nations, like the Watchtower, the universal life Church, and still people are confused about their teachings. And you are right God don't enter into a false Church, this is why you haven't found God in yours. But then we have men and women come in wearing sheep clothing, who claim they are Christians on the outside, but inside they are ravening wolves. We call them Prosperity Preachers, who believe that godliness is away of making money, twisting the word of God around for financial gain, but the Lord says it clearly in word, from such withdraw yourselves. Same with the JW's many believe in the false God, believing in a God they don't even know.So you see I am a pentecostal Christian, and I believe in the only true God Jesus Christ. I am a born again Christian and my goals in life is to write down the truth, what is truth? The truth is Jesus Christ. His Spirit roams around at home, in the streets, at the office, in my heart, in my thoughts, in my Spirit, Christ is everywhere. Christ don't live in Churches made from brick and mortar, Christ' Spirit lives in all those who have chosen to believe, and had made that first step in becoming a born again Christian, same like the disciples, they too were pentecostal's after Jesus had sent them His Helper to teach them all things.Would you like the address? Revelation 1:1-6 well I have already written down verse 4" and "1-2-3-5-6" says the Father, and who is to come the almighty {Omnipotent the ruler of all} verse 7-8 with what description had the JW's given God, "the almighty God" and what description had the JW's given Jesus "the mighty" and who's coming back the almighty. Even the New World Translation had written it Almighty Jehovah God is coming back, and who's coming back? Jesus is coming back, the true and only' faithful Jehovah God. dolphinheart: My claims, your beliefs, your spiritual standing does not stop your from telling us the name of your church .
And yet again, you lay a claim but refuse to quote the scriptures to back up your claim. Quote rev 1:1- 8 and tell us your understanding of verse 1 and 6.
Your church matters brocab, God does not associate with a false church, so too does a person who claim to be filled with holy spirit. one single curruption that is kept secret you have not been able to find, keep digging. It is hypocrisy to say its important to know ones secrect while keeping a tight lip and refusing to name your church for viewers to learn about . Crippy things like dark places . |

If the JW's practice true Christianity then they must be practising true worship. You cant believe in one' and not the other? And Jesus said one must be born again before he can enter into the kingdom of God. Are you are born again Christian?Well I can't agree with you, JW's worship a God they don't even know, they don't even believe in their own bible, NWT version says this in Revelation 1:7-8 "I am the Alpha and the Omega the beginning and the end, the first and the last, I was dead, and look I am alive forevermore, says Jehovah God, and this same description is Jesus, which they deny-and you say the JW's are true Christians? So how can you call them Christian, when it shows they don't even believe in their own bible? Quote> you are not a witness but you stand by the truth>what truth? This is why you should become a witness because you believe in their truth. Nsonaso: You made false assumption on me by saying I must believe that JW is the true worshiper of God since I said JW are the one's that practice true Christianity.... Why would you say such? Have I said a thing like that?
Believe it or not is your choice! being a Christian, Muslim or Pagan does not guarantee heaven, Christianity is not a certificate to heaven. Belonging to one church or the other does not guarantee heaven?
Christian, Muslim or Pagan who do the will of God will see Jesus and will go to heaven. Heaven is not meant for Christians alone, nor Muslim alone nor Pagan alone but those who do the will of God the Father.
John 14:6 Jesus answered him, "I am the way, the truth and the life; no one goes to the Father except by me he didn't say through being a Christian, Muslim or Pagan. he did not say through church, mosque or shrine. do you get it?
Mathew 7:21 "Not everyone who calls me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the Kingdom of heaven, but only those who do what my Father in heaven wants them to do. He did not say those who do what the Church say or those who does what Christianity say! So my brother you can be a good Christian and still go to hell if you do not do what is required of you by God.
Being a true Christian is different from being a worshiper of God and it only the almighty God who sees what is in the human heart knows who is worshiping him. Is not about saying it with your lips
So for the fact that I said JW are the people that practice true Christianity doesn't mean there are the true worshipers of God.... I am not God and is only God that knows his true worshipers.
And I still repeat as at today no church has the brotherly love that this people have for their fellow witness brothers and sisters. And if you can be sincere to yourself, you will admit that what am saying is the truth. but I know you may not admit it because there are not your Religious Group. I am not not a witness but I stand by the truth. |

Well then your blessings you retrieve are only from your tithings. You say you are rich, in what way are you rich? Firstly Jesus said one must be born again before he can enter into the kingdom of God-in your case You haven't yet accepted Christ fully into your heart, you are comparing Jesus with Money, Jesus said you can't worship Mammon and God at the same time. you will either hate the one or love the other-so which is it? Money or God? Have you noticed the story about the poor widow, who Christ recolonized, who paid more into the treasurey, her story stood out above the tithers, Christ had seen her heart she didn't give a percentage she gave all, why because she believed. More than what He seen the tithers do.. She understood the differences between tithing and given, she gave herself all what she had to God, while you and the rest of the tithers gave only a small percentage of 10%. And if you are to tithe the way God had commanded some Jewish farmers to tithe back then, then you would tithe 23% yearly, but because you have chosen to follow after your flesh, you are disobeying God and you have given your tithes "NOT" the way God had made tithes to be in Stock crops and Merchandise. Did Abraham pay tithes from his own weekly wages, or did he give back merchandise that didn't belong to him? It is not I' you are finding it hard to take seriously, its the word of God you are finding it hard to bare.I am blessed, I am rich, and the Lord had supplied me with my needs, as I live, I live for His word. Buying jets, mega homes, mega Churches, fancy cars M/Bikes, is a thing from the past, nothing last. Heaven and earth will oneday pass away, but Jesus said His word will always stay. And if Christ made some to be pastors, some evangelist, some teaches, and some prophets, then why does the Church make it so hard for people who have a passion for Christ, why aren't they paid?If you tithed to me, and I tithed to someone else, and somebody tithe to you, what then? Is your pastor being paid because you are to lazy to get out their yourself and witness, do I have to tithe to retrieve a blessing more then those who don't tithe? Can I not do the work for the lord, without having to be ordered by the church to do so. Is your Church really reaching out to the world, or are they enjoying their new comforts buying and selling new stocks they had financed through the Church. Joshthefirst: You're becoming quite offensive and you're misinterpreting me so terribly i beginning to find it hard to take you seriously.
My point, and the point of all the examples i gave is to show that if God accepted such sacrificial monies from 'poor' widows then he won't have any trouble accepting your 10%.
you have no problem with the widow giving all she had but you have a problem with me as a seed of abraham giving 10%? you must have a serious problem.
the word of God fills my heart, and my giving and tithing based on that very word makes my need met and blesses my pockets with the resources needed to finance the activities of Gods kingdom.
I am rich, silver and gold, I do have, and the power of God that brings healing and health, i have also.
From everything you have said here it is obvious you do not even give much. if you cannot support the gospel with 10% how can you make such sacrifice as that widow who was indeed rich toward God?
The kingdom of God is moving forward. people like me take it and will take it to the ends of the earth, because we are willing to give to support it. we are willing to pay for bibles to be translated and pay for the pastor to be kempt. we are willing to pay for missionaries travels and their upkeep in their work.
You would be foolish and not of much use to the kingdom if you think that you can give very well when you cannot even give 10% of what God has blessed you with into his work |

No-ones arguing, is this confusing for you? I was only rewriting what you had written in the first place, it was you who made false assumptions against the JW's, one minute you say they are true Christians, and then you say you never said they are true worshippers. So I asked how can you say one good thing about them and not the other. Nsonaso: You can't force me to believe what I don't believe... And a true Christian doesn't make false assumption on someone.
And enough of the argument bye please |

Satan had also used Judus, like he did with Peter, and Jesus rebuked both of them. Only because Peter and Judus did not understand the fruit of the spirit Jesus was teaching His disciples. Both allowed the flesh to ruin their lives. Judus was found dead of suicidal' in the flesh that's a difficult decision to make. Don't forget Judus understood his flesh-more then he understood the spirit, So who was Judus listening too, to make his final leap. Peter was their while Jesus was captured, denying Him 3 times as Jesus had predicted it.. But it was John who stood at the foot of the cross. Not Peter. Your not understanding its the flesh we war against everyday the principalities and the darkness in this world, the demons of this world can course our flesh to stumble, if we are not tuning into the word of God to build up our spiritual armour, then we are weak-and our weakness will always course us to fall. So the words Jesus had spoken to Him, were spoken to Peter's weaknesses he had in the flesh.. Peter wanted to prove his point to Jesus at all times, in the flesh Peter cut of the guards ear, and it was Jesus who laid his hand healing that same guard, Peter wanted to destroy. So you see the flesh and the spirit can't work together-matter of fact they work against each other. Our flesh will always turn away from the word of God, flesh is blind, it can only see fleshly worldly things. Spiritual knowledge will always lead us to the love of Christ. Jesus said to Peter get behind Me Satan. Sarang: Yes Peter had spoken in the flesh. like I said before he was human. But Jesus didnt said get me behind me Satan to Peter because he knew he was going to deny him. Jesus would never use a person's weakness against that one. Jesus understand humans perfectly having lived as one himself. Infact Peter was the only one strong enough to follow Jesus when he was caught. But did he accused the other disciples that ran away as Satans? No. Because he knew that Just like Peter,they were afraid because obviously they were Imperfect humans.
And as Jehovahs servants we do not use violence against each other or even our neighbours who are not Jehovahs witnesses.. in fact we do not partake in warfare. Many of our members are in prison in different countries because they refused to carry arms example South Korea. During the first,second world and subsequent wars many of our members were prosecuted because they refuse to carry arms. yes you are right,we pray for each other. Jehovah wants each one of the people to recieve his gift of life eternal likewise we want them to too. |

If you believe Witnesses as people who practices real Christianity, then you must believe witnesses are the true worshippers.Listen bro, you cant believe in one, and deny the other-so the JW's are not following after Christ as you believed they were, and in your search for glory, nothing they preached couldn't break through your decision you were about to make.It shows Jesus had beating Satan once again, and not even your own religion could break through the truth about Christ. So can we hear that line again who's witnessing the truth about Christ-not the witnesses, not the catholic's, but you. Nsonaso: Thanks man... But I've already found the truth. The search I said I was searching was then before 2012. John 14:6 is the truth (it was shown and interpreted to me by the Holy Spirit himself. It was magical and unbelievable)
Religion be it Christian, Islamic or pagan is people's way of life is never an avenue or ticket to go to heaven nor see Christ. Religion is just like every other social gathering or social group in a society. I only mentioned Witness as people who practices real Christianity. I never said there are the true worshippers of God because it's only God himself alone knows his true worshippers. |

2 Corinthians 8 read your bible-the story was preferring to was about giving , you have your wires crossed, you tithers are always confused about the scriptures, you believe giving and tithing have the same meanings. Well they don't {Giving can mean more or less-tithing is a percentage. 23% 10% etc} So yes I have all the rights to add words to the scriptures, because its the word of God, the truth and nothing but the truth.
The little old woman gave all what she had to the treasury {two mites} while the tithers gave their percentage, and who of the two was remembered more than the other. The Giver or the tither? So as we read more into the scriptures Jesus is the main attraction-not collecting any tithes Himself, nor His disciples, nor anybody else who followed after Him, but 2 Corinthians 8 talks more on the fact they were givers, not tithers, poverty was everywhere in those days, and because of their commitment to Jesus they understood the differences between the law on tithing and a free will giving, Voluntarily supporting their own poverty, they gave. Its the word of God that fills our hearts with its riches, not tithing money, I am rich, silver and gold I do not have, but what I have I give to you. Stand up and walk with Christ.Joshthefirst: Stop adding your own words to scripture. paul was talking about money and financies in 2 corinthians 8. simple |

Its the words Peter had spoken, Jesus had rebuked-Why because Jesus knew Peter would deny Jesus 3 times in his own flesh. Would he deny Jesus in the Spirit "NO" So the words Peter spoke were words spoken in his own flesh, not in the Spirit, so Jesus said get behind Me Satan. Peter trying to protect his friend, wasn't done in the Spirit. but in Peter's flesh he had spoken. So yes Jesus was directly speaking to Peter. Don't forget we war against our flesh everyday, against the principalities and the darkness of this world. So do you use violence against another, all would you prefer to pray for another?Sarang: He wasn't calling peter Satan. but Peter was a human and who as a human would want their friend to die? Peter mearnt well and Jesus knew it but he also know that he has to die and it is important at that time.
So he was in effect saying to peter,do not let human emotions and thinking to make you to try to stop me from the will of my father. For if Jesus hadn't die,yes Satan will win. And also he wasn't mad at peter. |

You should become a JW, they are no different then a Catholic, none what so ever believe in the truth. Catholic's worship after Mary before Jesus, and the JW's worship after a God they don't even recolonize.If you were truly searching for the right Church? Then look no further, give your heart over to Jesus right now. He will find your way, He will open up your heart, and show you the wonders of the true hidden secrets of the word of God. Jesus Christ is Lord, and He lords it over every name above and under the earth, every man every woman, will worship Him and Him only you shall serve.

You should become a JW, they are no different then most of you Catholic's, none' what so ever believe in the truth. One religion into another makes no difference, both sides have never understood the truth about Christ.Jesus said one must be born again before he can enter into the kingdom of God.This is where you should be searching, you won't find it in any man or religion, only Jesus who carries His name above any other name in heaven on earth or under the earth, Jesus Christ is Lord Himself.

Then this shows you are looking in the wrong direction, you are a man pleaser' not a God pleaser, you look for the things of men-searching around churches to be supported by men. God don't live in temples made with hands, He lives in people made by Him. Nsonaso: Is not about what a particular religious group claim to be but about what we see and practice in our every day Christian's life. I've been to different churches in search of the truth and I stand to tell you no church has the brotherly love like this people and that's true Christianity Galatians 6:10 This people are not interested in your money (the best of it all) there are not like what you see in today's Christianity, money this money that. Giving offering, sowing of seeds etc. and you show it to the entire world to notice you, even some televise theirs on TV. I use to ask myself what does these people actually read this verse Mathew 6:1-4 of the Bible?
Why I don't like some of their practices is that am not the type that like Human rules and traditions as a religion. Even in catholic there are things that turn me off too (like the monetary thing is gradually skimming into catholic). I would have decamp for a very long time when I found out that some things are not right, but I don't know why I have this strong feelings that one day am gonna make things right. |

His poverty made us rich in word' not in money. You preaching such rubbish shows you are a just another prosperity preacher, trying to build your kingdom with {Money} finances, paying your way into heaven, Jesus said you brought nothing into this world and surely you will take nothing out. 2 Corinthians 8 "Jesus became rich in word and He became poor in poverty {Money} Its the word of God that gives us riches, When we pray God already knows what we need, we just have to ask Him, and He will give to us the things that's needed for the body. You claim you are rich, in what way are you rich? I am rich, and the riches I have, I give to you, Peter said silver and gold I do not have, but what I have I give to you, get up a walk.You cant worship Mammon and God at the same time, you will either hate the one and love the other. Joshthefirst: The scripture that states that Jesus was made poor tells us why he was made poor. It's so that I, through his poverty, might be made rich! I'm rich bro! Glory to God. The El-shaddai.
He was made poor for my sake and your sake. His poverty made us rich!
2 Corinthians 8:
9 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.
∆I don't know why you're so worried that God wants you to prosper, financially too. Read that 2 Corinthians 8 and you'll see Paul was talking about material poverty and riches, not spiritual one.
He was talking about monéé guy. Cash, quid, bucks, etc. |

I like reading the rubbish you write on this page, you write so much rubbish, not even you could believe in it.
I was pointing out scriptures that I found that's written in your own bible, and you still don't understand any of the verses? I am not reading from the Watchtower mags, what would make it easier if you would just sit down and read your bible, and then tell me why you believe the scriptures in your bible had convicted themselves, that not even you believe, And while you decide to sort this mess out, you could explain why you don't follow after your own kind. The Jehovah witnesses have made God equal with Jesus Christ, having these same qualifications naming "Jesus" Jehovah God is your Alpha and the Omega, who was dead and now alive for evermore, and yet you are denying your bible had even wrote such a doctrine, explain to me why don't you believe what the JW's had written? It is in black and white-with colour. Revelation 1:7-8. Revelation 1:1:6 "Form which is, and which was, and which is to come. This must be a misprint on the JW's behalf, not even you can even believe it. Nor understand it. The description that's written' shows us viewers the JW's believe that Jehovah is {CHRIST HIMSELF}dolphinheart: you are lying again, throughout this thread, I've been proposing that you explain the bible verses you and I posted, and even on some of the verses you posted, for everyone to give an explanation when asked about his views on Bible verses. you have vehemently refused to give explanation, you have totally refused to even quote those scriptures, often time claiming it does not matter. often time I show you Scriptural verses telling you the truth, yet you refuse to see them, and even if you are forced to see them you totally refused to talk about them. an example of how you have been avoiding the scriptures yet Tryin to claim you show scripturAl truth is your present refusal to quote and explain revelation 1: 1,6. Your refusal to quote and explain those verses(including the others you have neglected)is bourne out from the fact that your nature is governed by fault finding and not truth seeking. you refuse to examine rev 1:1 to 6, but go straight to verse 7 and 8 cus the initial verses 1 to 6 are too explicit and cannot be twisted by you to surpport your fault finding desire.
can you hear urself, that it does not matter what the word of God says!. you know why it does not matter to you, it does not matter to you cus that's the only way you can find an excuse not to examine it's content. or rather, you have privately examined it's content and found out it is against your falsely generated and derived doctrines, and the only way to keep your doctrines afloat is to say some verses in the scriptures does not matter. well I tell you brocab, God knew that people like you will exist, that's why he had John record those words found at rev 1:1 to 6, so that whichever way or angle you use to cover the truth up, individuals who are seaching for the truth will find it. Because you can't cover the truth up any longer, you now says it does not matter.
first, I've never at any time asked you where your church is, so stop these attempted diversion. The location of your church or you yourself does not matter to me.
I've asked you to tell the world your church for the following reasons. 1. Your church will tell us about the doctrines you believe in, and everyone will be able to know if the church is true or not. And if you do not believe the doctrines of your church, then you are not supposed to attend such church. 2. The initial reasons for asking the name of your church is to check if it's true that your church follows Scriptural directives when it comes to how to deal with sinners in its midst. to examine if your words are true or false. 3. Another reason to know your church is for everyone to examine if truly , a person who claims to have to the holy spirit in him is associating with an organization that displays the fruits of the holy spirit.
you have so far, up till this moment shown you can't tell people about the church you attend, that you are afraid to reveal your church and thus will continue to bring up excuses rather than just tell people the church you attend. I'm sure people reading these posts will know you as someone desiring to throw stones while living in a glass house.
In your desperate bid to alter the truth, you have so far refused to tell us who is talking in rev 3:2,12. you have read those verses and you know that quoting or explaining those verses will show the world you are a liar and a propagator of false doctrines, hence your refusal to talk about them.
Are you a Jehovahs witness?No!, so even is you say they shy away, why not show them the right way and prove them wrong by not shying away from telling people your church! |

I am a born again Christian, a pentecostal believer. What don't you understand, claiming to be a JW does not provide any evidence you are a true believer in Christ. None so far what you have showing me makes any sense, your bible says one thing' and you say another trying to convict your own bible. Revelation 1:1-8 "Tells us clearly who Jesus is' Jehovah God" and you in your own miserable power are trying to confuse the idea your bible didn't even write such a verse, I am the Alpha and the Omega says Jehovah God. Verse 4 "which is, which was, and which is to come, this sure tells us clearly who this is-and if you believe its, Jehovah God, then you must believe Jehovah God is Jesus, or maybe you are trying to draw my attention away from this scripture because you believe this is a misprint written by the JW's?Plus you have failed to answer every question I have laid out on this page, and yet true believers don't lie against the truth like you and your followers do, which church' what Church doesn't really matter, its the fruit we judge by, and so far, I have witnessed the JW's speak with fork tongue, nothing makes any sense in the NWT bible literature, It says one thing and convicts its own writings in the other, no-wonder we and the JW's are confused. plus It's important for us viewers to know your secrets, about the corruptions that happens within the walls of the JW's organization. Firstly you should know about yourselves, before you claim any judgement against any other church that stands for Christ. CANTICLES: Dolphinheart ... Well done bro ! I pray Jehovah God continue to be with you.
Bro brocab ... Make una tell the name of your church, lets see if they follow the scripture regarding what is to be done concerning an unrepentant sinner |

And could you show me in scripture where Jesus spoke and preached in the prosperity money doctrine? And make sure you point it out clearly why was Jesus made poor, when you claim He preached such doctrines? Does this verse sound like Jesus was rich in finances-birds have nest, foxes have holes, but Jesus said He had no place to rest His head.What does this scripture tell you? Matthew 17:24 "The temple guards came to Peter and said, does not your master pay temple taxes, Peter said yes, then Jesus asked Simon. so whom do the kings of the earth collect customs, from their sons or by strangers, Peter said by strangers, Jesus then said then the sons are free.Joshthefirst: The principle of tithing and seed showing was demonstrated by Abraham and Jacob before the law of !Moses was given. It is not part of the mosaic law. It is a principle of heaven.
And Jesus preached prosperity. If you want to stick with being impoverished, go ahead, but he was made poor, so that I, through his poverty might become rich. |

So you are saying the witnesses are the true followers, to whom? If these are the ones truly practising true Christianity then why are you turn off by some of their practises? And plus does not the Roman Catholic Church claim they are the true Christians? Nsonaso: Nope bro my uncle and his family are witness and he is also a Baptised publisher. Am a roman Catholic and am currently staying with them. And staying with them has made me learn a lot about witness and I can boldly tell you that there are the one practicing real Christianity though they have some flows that turn me off |

I have given you the truth about thr scriptures and you cant answer any of them. I suppose its only because you dont know any of them. It doesnt matter what verses revelalation 1:1-6 has to say, what matters is your bible had already agreed, who christ is. He is the one you worship not the father he is the father. You keep on asking where is my church, Firstly what has my church got to do with any of the scriptures, but you keep on asking, its funny you say born agains dont shy away, and its more funny because JWs do. dolphinheart: is these your response to verse 1 and 6 of rev? said it a couple of times you can't talk about those verses cus it shows your doctrine to be false!, you have just proven, one more time that I'm right.
a born again will not shy away from explaining Scriptural verses posed to him or her, it's someone who has something to hide that will not quote the scriptures.
Look at the question you asked again and tell me if it's reasonable or not, so it does not make a difference if you claim to be born again but yet you are attending a church that condones things the scriptures told us to be against. brocab, it's important that you should be proud to tell anyone the church you attend!
and yet you have just failed to tell us the two type of christians you have. And how does this affect naming your church, or quoting and explaining rev 1: 1,6.
and what does your location or country of origin or race have to do with the scriptures? does location,race or country make you a better christian than others? or does it give you better access to the holy spirit than others not from the same place or race? it seems you are running out of reasons not to quote or explain rev 1:1 and 6 and not to tell us the church you attend, which has made you to try to shift it(as always) to an irelivant issue. no one cares what country you come from brocab, except you are from a war torn region. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: 17 Facts People Should Know About Them by brocab: 11:40pm On Feb 25, 2016 |
Calling yourself an JW, doesn't fit the bill of what church you are from either? And because I call myself a born again, what difference does it make which church I am from? The answer to this question is' we have two different type Christians. What you should be asking is, what countries are we both From? And I am not from Africa. dolphinheart: Then quote verse 1 and 6 of rev chapter 1 and tell us what you understand by what is written there. by doing so , you have shown us you are not refusing anything. I know who Jesus is to me, he is the one who sent by God to tell us the truth about him, to show us the way to the father, and to provide a means by which we can gain evalasting life. He is the one who God has appointed and anointed to be our savior , to judge mankind and to bring God's people to God. He is the king of God's kingdom, he is our savior and God has provided no other person to save us than his son jesus.
Read above about who I think jesus is and stop this your false assumptions.
you sabi jesus physically ? abeg describe him for us! and where did you read that Jesus is going to walk on the earth again?
you that is afraid to name your church is telling someone he can't recognize God, describe God for us, you that have seen God with the sprit in you. |

You say you do not Judge, and yet you have Judged, what happens in a Church stays in the Church.
Have you yourself witnessed these so called fornicators, these drunkards, these Idolaters,yourself? Usually if the Churches see's a man woman or Child committing a crime of such, and someone catches them in the act, yes its right to talk to them about it, and if they don't listen, then its right for that person and two elders to front up with him/her about the matter. The elders of the Church can ask the man woman and child to be remove from the Church, but they can't disqualified them from their Christian faith, their matter is with the lord, and if they choose to stay with Christ, then they need to stop doing what crimes they had committed and return themselves back as Christians. No man has any rights to take God away from them, nor have any rights to condemn them for eternity, from Christ Himself. We have choices to make-we choose to walk with Christ-or we choose not with Christ. We have people from all walks of life they come and go as they please. We all war against the principality and against the demons in this world. I have found none that's prefect, and Christians have sometimes their up's and down's. Like you! Like me! True Christians know Christ, have you heard of the saying My sheep knows My voice. Do understand the story about the tares and the wheat, at the end of the harvest, first the wheat will be gathered into the barns, while the tares will be throwing into the fire. Have you heard about when Jesus said: many are called but few are chosen. dolphinheart: Like I said earlier, they will say they have found jesus but cannot disclose the church they associate with.
would have answered you, but I just see it as diversionary, cus I'm sure you dnt believe that Jesus is a sinner cus he bore our sins. and if you dnt believe that, it's an irony for you to ask if we expelled jesus, it's just shows your aim.
I do not judge, but the scriptures has (as mentioned several times to you)stated what should be done to one who commits such sins( as mentioned in the scriptures) and does not repent.
your drive to find fault in the way Jehovahs withnesses handle sinners among them has made you not to tell us on this thread how ur church handles someone who is a fornicator and does not change his ways. You offer no solution, but you are just out to find fault.
brocab, we are not handling assumptions here, we are talking bout a confirmed person that fornicates and is a drunkard!, one who has been proven beyond doubt that he commits those sins. tell us how your church handles such one.
loving your neighbour does not give you a right or a leeway in condoning sin!.
So the book of 1 Corinthians and 2 John where I quoted the directives to you are from the old testament right? as said before, you only see what you want to see, you wunt see scriptures that shows you your doctrine is false, you wunt quote then, neither will you explain them. I wonder where I quoted the law of moses concerning expelling someone from the Christian congregation.
another diversionary tactic. It does not tell how your church deal with one who fornicates and does not repent.
haha, you've just shown us you can't post the content of that Watchtower on these thread, cus you dnt want people to examine it with the lies you stated in your post. It is one who wants to show that a book contains something that will provide the contents of the book to show that what he or she is saying is true, but you can't do that as doing so will show you lied. imagine , wanting me to proviDe proof of words I said does not exist. A very important part of that page of the Watchtower was posted to you, but you can't see it as usual, if you saw it , you wunt say I did not provide evidence.
you are of those that will read books made by followers of those that don't serve God cus you are looking for hidden secrets. you try to change the topic to issues of the watchtower cus you can't agree with the numerous scriptures I've been quoting for you so far. You complain it's from the Watchtower, I told you its from the scriptures, you now shifted and say it's from the NWT , I decided to quote some specific verses from the KJv, even went further to quote from the two translations, but yet you will not see it, you will not read from the scriptures you claim to follow. |

No-ones refusing nothing, you just can't get your head around it who Jesus is to you. As far as you are concern He is just another man who walked the earth, If Jesus walked past you, you wouldn't even recognise Him. You wouldn't even recognise God coming, only unless God's Spirit enters into a Man's body, and both Spirit and flesh becomes One with each other. And still you wouldn't recognise Him. dolphinheart: yes it does! and I'm astounded by your refusal to accept it! in verse one it tells that God gave the Revelation to jesus, this blatantly shows that Jesus is not that God refered to in verse one. verse six now makes it clear that Jesus HAS A GOD,(the same one who gave him the revelation), that same God is jesus father. Jesus has on several occasions refered to this God as his God! also telling disciples that that God is also their God! , the God that sent him, THE ONLY TRUE GOD!, his father!. We found out that this God said he is the God of jesus(heb 1:9). These God's name is Jehovah and superior to jesus, therefore these God is THE ALMIGHTY GOD.!
brocab, if you think I'm wrong, tell us who Jehovah is, if you fail to do so , it shows you dnt know the one who gave jesus the Revelation. remember John 17:1 to 3? know Jehovah if you want to gain evalasting life brocab.
It can be confusing to you and to those who want to twist the scriptures and ascribe to it things not found there.
listing scripture verses without quoting it or explaining it wunt help you. For your benefit, and for others to know you dnt tell the truth, i will quote those scriptures and show you what it means.
Matthew 27: 43,46,54 King James Version He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
now who did the these people say Jesus called himself? almighty God? Jehovah? The answers are no! they said Jesus called himself the son of God! The son of the one he cried out to in a loud voice.
The words in Matthew and that of Psalms 22 help us to know the God jesus cried out to.
Psalms 22: 1,8 ,19 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you far from saving me, Far from my cries of anguish? “HE ENTRUSTED HIMSELF TO JEHOVAH. Let Him rescue him! Let Him save him, for he is so dear to Him!” But you, O JEHOVAH, do not remain far away. You are my strength; hurry to help me. Therefore, the God jesus cried out to, the one he called his God ,is Jehovah and not trinity.!
verry funny, how did Jesus fulfil the prophecy, by saying what was said in the prophecy?
you are far off from the truth brocab, and derived analogy wunt help you. They are one does not mean they are the same person as explained to you several times. Jesus is not the almighty God as Jehovah is superior to him. You can now see that the fact that you can't tell us if jesus is Jehovah is because the answer will show the world that your doctrines are false. you that have the spirit, please tell us if jesus is same person as the father, if jesus is same person as Jehovah and if jesus is same person person as the one who told him to sit on the right side. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: 17 Facts People Should Know About Them by brocab: 8:45pm On Feb 24, 2016 |
How many times do I have to write who Jesus is to you. Your bible describes the same description who's coming back to collect His people Revelation 1:7-8 " NTW and the KJ Bibles both show us Jehovah God and Jesus are both the same person. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end. Now we couldn't have two with the same names, now could we? Unless the bibles are telling us they are one person?
It doesn't matter which way the scriptures shows us, who Jesus really is, you will never believe it, because the spirit in you is not the same as the Spirit of God. Which makes life a little harder for you to understand the scriptures. Have you ever falling in love with that special person? Someone you have been so touched by, your insides are feeling overly realm, just being around this person. Every minute of the day, your thoughts cant stop thinking about that person. Your aim is to get to know that person, and while the seconds are counting, all you want is to be with that person. You just know deep within your spirit and her/his Spirit is connected with you. Have you ever falling in love? Now I am not expecting to answer this-you may be one of those who have been torn apart from a relationship, and you may find it hard to love another soul. Well this sort of love, even better I have for Jesus, my aim is to know who He is, where He is from, why do I love this man so much? Who is this man? And why is He in my thoughts every day? And why do I feel so connected to Him? And why do I believe His Spirit lives in my spirit inside Me. And why do I do' preaching His word? Thinking about His word? Acting on His word' and doing His word. And why do I want to be with that man.And until one falls in love with Jesus, I suppose no-one knows the experiences or understand the essence of love. dolphinheart: clear the screen first and you will see clearly who is coming. first tell us if jesus is same person as Jehovah or if jesus is same person as the father or if jesus is the same person as one sitted on the throne who told Jesus to sit at his right side. clearing that one away first will help you to understand who is coming. your refusal to share that information shows who you really are, someone who jumps from issues to issues, looking for perceived faults without neccessarily ready to offer solutions. |

Yes we do believe in just giving. When we give' we don't count it up as a tithe-it's those greedy Churches of yours who have made that rule, funny thing about it, it isn't scriptural. Given has a completely different meaning to a percentage of a wage.I love the way you prosperity preachers preach your sermons you twist the scriptures around trying to make those who don't tithe feeling guilty, it's always the way, {You will do everything you can' to try and make money} If you were a true Christian, you would read the scriptures, and you wouldn't write such rubbish, you wouldn't go down that road trying to twist verses around to rip off others, this shows us' your lack of knowledge in the word of God. The differences between Luke 12:23 "Sell all your possessions and give to the poor-He never said tithe 10%. You believe tithing monies to a Church, is your way to receive a blessing or two, does that Church provide the extra's do they feed the poor, all would they rather feed the rich? Are you rich? Is your family and friends rich? Did God bless you with mega homes, mega Churches, cars, bikes, planes, Helicopters, money? Does the Church rise the dead, heal the sick, Jesus said provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near, and no moth destroys. {And you think Jesus is talking about tithing money} No your treasure is the word of God, no thief can break into your mind, heart or soul. The riches is the word-not Mammon, not something that you can take with you after you die. Its the word that keeps us alive, not Mammon it's dead. No-one seems to understand the body of Christ, you are tithing all your monies away paying someone else for the job you are supposed to be doing, don't you realize we all have a job to do, their are Some teachers, some pastors, some evangelist, Some apostles, we are all priest in the kingdom of God, I don't get paid a wage for my services, and I am not asking to be paid, I don't need the finances, I need His wisdom and His knowledge daily, I need His anointing, His light to fill me up with His riches. And If I gave you a tithe, and you gave someone else a tithe, and that someone gave the tithe back to me, does this mean I am now on the get rich quick plan? Ken4Christ: Those who condemn tithing on the ground that it is Old Testament, please tell me which command appears more demanding. The tithe which is just 10% of your increase or the instruction our Lord Jesus gave in Luke 12:33 which is almost all the assets you possess. You must practice one of it. If you don't pay tithe, then obey what Jesus says we should do. The early church did it. And I have been in meetings where people gave away the only car for the work of the ministry. If you believe in just giving, you shouldn't give less than 10% unless you are not born again. If you are, the nature of God is in you now. Since God is generous, you too should be generous. Only carnally minded people kick against giving. The carnal mind cannot please God. If God's children do not give a definite percentage of their income to God, how will the church pay it's bill. Tithing is God's own way of paying full time workers in the house of God and take care of other logistics. Do you think God will be more pleased if we give less. If you are managing an organization, will you prefer to have a system that brings less money? The church needs more fund. A lot of believers that have caught this revelation give much more. Please don't discourage anyone from tithing. That is the very least expected of us. From the teachings of our Lord Jesus, he even wants us to give all. |

Firstly it is not a weak point-only to you, because you aren't reading your bible clearly, the blind will always lead the blind. You have read the scriptures to know not even Jesus collected tithes, nor His disciples, but you have chosen to ignore the scriptures, your page has showing us clearly, you would rather follow after Mammon your God, you are part of the gang of thieves, who can only see the doctrines on law these prosperity preachers produce. Galatians 3:10 "You are cursed with a cursed if you don't obey all the laws. Joshthefirst: Sorry, I was replying with regards to a certain statement he made:
I was trying to show him God collected much more than 10% from widows, so his point is null.
People mostly dealt in farming back then. Will you now tell me that you aren't supposed to tithe because you're not a farmer? Weak point. |

A question you need to ask yourself? You can't work out what Church I am from? Come on you can't be this silly? I am a born again Christian. 1 peter 2:24 "He himself bore our sins, in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by His wounds you have been healed. John 1:29 "The next day John saw Jesus coming towards him, and said "look the lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. Jesus bored all our sins-Sin is sin-Did you cast Him out of your church too?Romans 5:12 "Therefore one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because all sinned. And no-ones condoning sin, it's flesh and blood that sins, what makes you the judge? If you looked deep into a man's heart, usually something is bothering him, but because no-one is listening to him, of course his out break could be fatal. Leaving one Church into another doesn't mean the man's a drunkard or a fornicator, it just means he may need a little counselling, and if he refuses that, then its best to give him space, behind closed doors no-one knows who this man is, until he reveals himself, the flesh don't care. Have you not heard love your God with all your heart soul and mind and love your neighbour as yourself.You are starting to sound more like the prosperity preachers who uses old testament laws for gain-don't you realize the laws of Moses were made in the flesh. Romans 7:5 "For when we in the realm of the flesh the simple passions aroused by the law were at work in us, so we bore fruit of death. Galatians 3:10 "For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse, as it is written, cursed is everybody who does not continual to do everything written in the book of the law. Galatians 2:16 "Know that a person is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. Romans 8:2-3 "Because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life have set you free from the law of sin and death. For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did be sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering. So He condemned sin in the flesh. Yes He took away that old fleshly law. Two new laws were given love thus God with all your heart soul and mind, and love your neighbour as yourselves. You are quick to call me a liar, but you haven't produced any evidence yourself, does this mean you can't get your hands on the 1981 issue And you want me to prove the evidence for you. Is it the case JW's aren't allowed to read up any other doctrines other then the Watchtowers Mags. Why is that? Is it because even you yourself may find some hidden secrets the Church don't want you to see, and the truth will set you free. Satan wouldn't want that to happen, why would he. dolphinheart: we are talking about sins that the scriptures recommended expulsion for. The sin committed and the attitude of the sinner towards the sin committed are important. The scriptures is explicit on the process, not only giving instructions but also giving examples of how such instructions had been carried out from the time of Adam till now. You can break those rules cus of sentiments, but Jehovahs witnesses will not, cus its a safeguard! cus sin is everywhere does not mean it should be condoned brocab.
that's the difference between a true congregation and a divided one. does moving to a new church remove the sin committed in the former church?NO! The branches of the church should be under one body with same guidelines.
no human now can condemn anybody for eternity, it is not a Scriptural guideline and Jehovahs withnesses dnt do it. A Christian already knows he wunt gain evalasting life if he is a fornicator, he does not need to be expelled to know that. But he also knows that if he changes his ways he can gain evalasting life.
tell us pls, what did moses tell the isrealites as regards sinners among them(by sinners , I mean those who sin continously such as fornicators and adulterers and drunkards). pls tell us, what does the scripture say we should do to those who commit such sins in the Christian congregation. you have so far failed woefully in telling us what the word of God say we should do to such ones. not following divine instructions will only give the devil a leeway into the congregation brocad, follow Scriptural directive and do not lean on your own understanding. trust in Jehovah and do not let sentiments affect your understanding.(proverbs chapter 3)
the same church with different branches or a different church with different doctrines and process.? pls be specific. and pls be confident enough to mention the name of the church!
we dnt do it the way you do cus we prefer to follow Scriptural directives(as shown you in previous post)rather than follow man made opinions. Jehovahs withnesses dnt have organizations, they have only one orginization, get it? you condemn yourself by not repenting from the sins you are committing!
do not let sentiments affect your judgements, the scriptures says "do not associate with sinners". you brocab, will associate with an armed robber if she is your wife!
The church will not lose its lampstand because of an individual who wants to use sentiments to remain in the congregation and continue to practise sin!
are you serious at all brocab? or you simply dnt know or understand the topic you are bringing on. How does your committing fornication relate to sinning against me?!
you are a liar brocad, being expelled does not mean your marriage will be dissolved. If you are unevenly yoked, you are still yoked, that yoking will be respected and observed by all, and can only be broken through an act of adultery by one of the partners.
Most times when you use the letter "i", you next statement will probably be a lie cus you feel no one can investigate it.
brocab, you are a liar!, bet you where told to just post the Watchtower and you did not read it! cus if you have done so , you would not have referred to it. Probably you where thinking people wunt look for it to read cus it was published in 1981.
A part of that page shows your post as lies:[b]"Since his being disfellowshipped does not sever the family ties, normal day-to-day family activities and dealings may continue."[b]. If you truly want people to know you are not lying, pls post what is in that page of that Watchtower and tell us if their understanding of the scriptures they put their is wrong. |

Does not Revelation 1:1-8 "tell you who Jehovah God is? This can be confusing and it all go's back to the mystery of the trinity, when Jesus was on the cross, He quoted Psalms 22 "Matthew 27:46 "Mark 15:34 " This was a psalm of David, but it was a Messianic prophesy as well. The entire psalm contains remarkable predictions by David concerning the coming Messiah. So one of the reasons He called God My God, was to fulfil the prophesy of the psalm. And as we all know, the prophesies have to be fulfilled, I suppose when we ever make it to heaven, we will see it all. You don't believe God and Jesus are One-you can't understand no-one has seen God at any time, and you have made God into a man made of flesh and blood, and you don't believe Jesus is that man, by the bible's description, Jesus died,, and was made is alive forevermore. And He is the one returning back to earth raising His people to meet Him in the clouds. Jesus the Almighty-your bible calls Him Jehovah God.What the flesh don't know' the flesh will never understand, but if you were Spirit filled-you would know the Spirit. But because these arguments of yours are not of the Spirit-then you are speaking in the flesh, and flesh can only act upon what the flesh knows. So until you receive the Spirit of God and understand the scriptures, your argument will always travel around in circles. dolphinheart: you have a lot to learn, what you are searching for will not help you understand what the scriptures says. your refusal to tell us if jesus is same person as the father or if jesus is same person as Jehovah or if jesus is the same person as the one who gave him instructions to sit at his right hand will continue to affect your understanding of what the book of rev chapter one is saying. rev 1:1 to 6 have already seperated jesus from the almighty God, yet you are desperate to link verse 7 and 8 together as talking about one person.
If you truly understand verse 7 and 8, why do you then refuse to understand verse one to 6 or explain what is written there? Your answer lies in your refusal to understand what the scriptures says in favour of your false doctrines. ones you sit down and explain to every one what the preceeding verses 1 to 6 says, then you will know the truth. |

So your answer is you don't know who's coming back? dolphinheart: can you see how confusing you are and how much you have confused yourself on these issues? you have tried linking jesus with Jehovah and now you are saying " one of them".
stating if jesus is Jehovah God or if they are two seperate persons will help you to understand who is coming. state your views on that first and everything will fall into place. |

New World Translation the Jehovah Witnesses bible. Revelation 1:7-8 "Look He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him, and those who pierce Him; and all the tribes of the earth, will beat themselves with grief because of Him. "Yes Amen"I am the Alpha and the Omega say's Jehovah God, the One who Is the One who was and who Is Coming. So you see-this is talking about Christ, and what teachings you receive from the Watchtower, you are actually denying the power of the word of God, your own bible say's in John 1:18 "No-man has seen God at any time. So if no-one had seen God at any time, then who else is coming back' this leaves Christ the almighty? dolphinheart: that's a lie, and that's why you can't tell if jesus is same person as the father or if jesus is same person as Jehovah. Jehovah is the almighty God, the supreme being who told Jesus to sit at his right side, the God of Jesus! heb 1:9 |
