paulGrundy:
What proof do u have for your claim? RCC boasts of 6billion members, JW of 8million that has been stagnant for about 5 years now is claiming more increase, mansions are talking, face me I face you is talking.
You don't know what you are talking about at all, Catholics have deviated from the faith, they did that a long time ago, about just after the death of the apostles, and they became wolves in sheep's clothing, somebody like Constantine who adulterated the faith because he was trying to please his subjects, so he added a lot of pagan beliefs, and the faith became bastardised, and you peoples still call that christianity , that is Christendom, so being a Catholic is very easy, being a JW is hard, we walk by faith not by sight, in Europe not just Germany, the trend is the same, people stop going to Church because they are fed up, sick and tired of the rubbish they do there. You will never go to any of our meetings any where on planet earth and you see a basket being passed around in the name of offering. I can stake my own head for that. Ndi oshi. Thieves. Babylon the great, Jehovah will use amargeddon to destroy Babylon the great, get out if her if you don't want to share in her sins, a word is enough for the wise.

For the records, Pastor W.F.Kumuyi got born again in 1964 at the Apostolic Faith and was with them and S.U. till the Bible study (circ 1973) started and later sunday services! That claim of him being a JW is in the same pattern as with the JW teachings.
you are a story teller, your kumuyi is a thief trying to cover his tracks and he is using people like you, who lack thinking capacity. You hate JWs but we will never hate you in return, okay? but haters gonn' hate potatoes gonn' potate

Many religions are similar. Even sango of yoruba land is very much like thor of the Vikings.
You remain a liar! This is not how to make JW more popular.
your own cup of tea, it is not by force to be JW, and it does not remove the fact that Kumuyi used to be JW and he left because of money

See lies!
You can't make JW greater by slandering Deeper life. I just lost the little respect I had for JW. Never knew u guys lie this much. Used to even invite u guys into my house. NEVEr Again!
The real problem is that Deeper lifers are proud and arrogant. They think they are the only ones going to heaven. Don't because of that spread lies about them. That your dad's friend is a shameless old man
Hahahaha, first of all my best friend's dad.
Look at the belief of DL church and that of JWs, you will find out that their (DL) is much like a corrupted version of JWs belief, that is one, when I was in JS1 in Emarid college in PH, there was this DL boy, she he talks about bible there were things that I found very familiar, but many time he says something, then I ask were in the bible did you find this? And they are not proud as you say, they were told never to talk to JWs.
Do I care? No. It is this thread I only wanted to answer, because it is like when anybody says he or she is no longer JW then he becomes the darling of this forum, as if there was a rope that was used to tie him.
Even here in Libreville, there are many, even Nigerians, there is the is guy, I won't mention his name, he is a regular pastor on one church TV station called Bethel Medias here in Libreville, he used to be a goldsmith (fake one), after defrauding people no body wanted do business with him any more, he wasn't a strong JW, he comes today after two months you see him again, now he is using church to defraud people, using the bible to cheat people out of money. You have not seen anything.

Interesting....

My mum was JW member albeit passive, her immediate family(my cousins, grandparents) are strict JW members and sometimes too extreme/fanatical. Passive to the end that she got married to a Catholic man while being an Army officer. However, she stopped going because of the house-house preaching which she termed stressful and embarrassing, in her words, people should choose whoever and whatever to worship.

I was going to the church when I was young, probably 7-8 years old. Although certain doctrines of theirs are ridiculous to me(for instance blood transfusion), I do admire their teaching style(not cacophonous and garrulous); they had a massive influence on my dress sense(they're very professional when it comes to fashion). Till date, I read the Awake! because of their articles and continuous discussions about religion and science, which I do with an open mind.

After a while and lots of reading/research, I came to realise that religion isn't something fulfilling(Nigeria is a good example. It takes away rational thinking) and that you don't need religion to be a good person, I decided to be a freethinker.
There is no rope or anything that JW tie one another to prevent them from leaving, Your mom was never a JW, merely attending meetings doesn't qualify anyone, but you must accept evey thing as a whole, and are encouraged to think rationaly about what you learned, many have been put to death because they were JWs, in Nazi Germany for example, we know what Hitler and his as did to our brothers then, but where is the Nazi party, the SS and Hitler himself? in the dust bin of history, for you to say that we are not allowed to think is totally false, even the bible called the boereans noble because after hearing from Paul they went into their homes and checked from the scripture if what they heard were so.
Paul also encouraged Christians, what ever things are lovable, well spoken of and other things, we should KEEP ON considering these things.

Somebody narated how she liberated herself from deceit through due diligence and research for the Truth, you are there still wallowing in dark of according to my Dad's friend's Sister and brother.
Anyway, thats simply the difference bw developed and undeveloped mind.
look, Millions, used to be JW, but for one reason or the other they left, but still, the population of JW on this planet keeps increasing, more and more people embrace the TRUTH daily, when you look at the reasons people leaving JW you find out that it is for various SELFISH reasons okay like money, you cannot use JW to make money, that is impossible, so when they try all their possible best, then they go and open their own church, others leave because of marriage, when the woman becomes desperate to marry and no one is proposing to her, since JWs marry only JW, they have to leave, to find husband elsewhere, there are very many things, so this woman is not the first, and she will not be last.
in Germany for example, all the so called churches are dwindling in population except JW and Islam, Islam increases because of the influx of refugees from the middle east, while JW increase because more and more people are embracing the TRUTH.

PLEASE TELL ME URE STATING FACT OR JUST HYPOTHESIS, i'm sorry for asking just wanted to be sure
Look, this thing happened a long time ago, before even the birth of the deeper life Church, But I know somebody that was there when it happened, he is my best friend's father and the sister of that my friend is the one I am planning to marry, the man was in Lagos in the 70s when Kumuyi a was still JW, and they were in the same congregation, I was preaching with him one day, we were in a group with other JWs as we normarly do, then some brothers went to a particular house, before we knew what was happening the house holder started to shout at the person who went to knock at his door, which drew our attention so we went to calm him down, then we saw a sticker on his door which made us know he was a member of deeper life Church, then after, we all left, it was then I asked why they react soooooo wildly when ever they see JWs, then my best friend's dad whom I was working with by the way told me everything. And mind you that is not the first time a member of DL Church has behaved that way towards even me when I am preaching and happened to meet them.

Moral of this story undecided
It takes a lot to be and remain a JW
Christianity EtcRe: Why I Left The Jehovah's Witnesses by cocoduck: 8:49pm On Apr 24, 2016
Jamean:
Oga W. F. Kumuyi was a Catholic not a JW o!
Then you don't know him
it was because of money he left JW, he was a top member in one congregation in Lagos, then they decided to contribute money to either to build or renovate a kingdom hall, as the secretary he was given the money and when the time arrived to bring the money, the guy begin yarn tory , then after all said and done he was sanctioned, he simply left and open his own church and began to castigate JWs, When we are preaching, we usually encounter deeper life people, the way they react when they see us is very different from the way other churches react to our visit, because of the lies they have been told, they don't even want to use eye to see us. I know what I am talking about bro. Maybe he was Catholic before he became JW. But he used to be a JW.

davide470:
This story reminds me of a senior cousin who back then in school was a strong JW member. It was because of her persistence I attended JW conference at Akure and some of their meetings cheesy

Well, she later got maried to a popular pentecostal pastor in Benin.. Though it generated rancours within her family but she had been enlightened and followed what she wanted.

As at this time, she is planning to organise a
Singles Seminar and they are starting another branch of the church in the US soonest smiley
it's a free world bro, I know so many people like that, even your Kumuyi was a JW, the owner of GKS was a JW, there are many pastors today who were JWs, but you need a great faith to stay a JW because it is very difficult, even now if I want to open a church, I can. Even in my dad's family, my grand pa and grand ma are JW but all the men in that family except my dad stopped being JWs at one time or the other, and they are persecuting him for not joining them, denying him almost all his right, his inheritance and other things, but his doesn't care. So I respect him so much for that, and that is why I decided to stay.

gillz:
First of all BBC hausa is not a radio station, they don't broadcast from an unknown location illegally but under the BBC family. BBC hausa don't preach hate against the Nigerian state but promote information propagation among the hausa speaking tribe of Nigeria. Radio Biafra is an illegal setup that broadcast from an unknown location illegally without any broadcast license. They preach hate against the Nigerian state. They are advocating for secession instead of going through the National Assembly thereby committing treasonable offence. It is not set up by any recognized Ibo group so it can not be said to be representing the interest of the ndi-gbos. For radio Oduduwa I don't know nothing about them

You ara not a car guy, the one you drove, is it a 4 banger or a V engine, if its a 4 banger, how do you expect it to be the same as a V engine, last time I checked an innoson car, I saw that it was equipped with ABS, SRS, was OBDII compliant, I don't know exactly the power output, I did not drive it, the owner was not there, it was his son that was there, the owner left with the keys, so I took that opportunity to check these things.

So according to you, the misunderstanding is tied to the fact that people could see the light right from day one, but could only observe the source of the light on day 4. mmmkay.

- And what is it that prevented them from seeing the sun right from day one and that could not prevent them to see it by day 4?
- Who are the people that could not see the light from day one, since according to the Bible it is on day 6 that Adam and the animals were created?
- Why should a God narrating the way he created things, be limited by human's perspectives?
- And why did you not address the other issues? Did Lion eat grass? Could the more than 7 millions known species and the many millions unknown species multiplied by 14 (7 pairs of the pure ones) or by 2 (the impure ones) have found place in the Ark of Noah, whose dimensions are well indicated?? Is Joshua right when he asks the Sun and the moon to stop rotating around the earth?


Good day to you.
STOL jumping around, if you don't believe the bible then, that one na your own biz, bro, it is not by force to believe in God, continue with your atheism, Lions will not attack people or other animals for food, at least according to that fraud called evolution herbivores came before carnivores, that is a clue, they way things are going on on this planet is not how it was originally made, okay?
Day in the creation is not literal 24H is spans a thousand years enough time to do all the tinkering needed to fine tune things, the fraud called evolution has not been tested to prove ANYTHING but the so called enlightened one like you believe it strongly, do you know why I don't believe the newspaper called daily mail? because they are well known for blowing rumors here and there, the bible said it a long time ago, that the earth is round and it is hanging up on nothing, people took it as a bizzare statement for so many years, was it not until NASA took the photographs of the earth from outside that the whole world realized that the bible had been right after all. So believing in the Bible is not by force, everybody will carry his own load.

^^^ what do you expect from folks who claim that the salvation of their souls depends on their loyalty to Jehovahs witness church. Not on Jesus.

"During the final period of the ancient world that perished in the Flood, Noah was a faithful preacher of righteousness. (2 Peter 2:5) In these last days of the present system of things, Jehovah's people are making known Gods righteous standards and are declaring good news about the possibility of surviving into the new world. (2 Peter 3:9-13) Just as Noah and his God-fearing family were preserved in the ark, survival of individuals today depends on their faith and their loyal association with the earthly part of Jehovah's universal organization." Watchtower 2006 May 15 p.22 "Are You Prepared for Survival?"

Are you sure these ones are christains?
You are blind and bitter, There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING YOU OR ANYBODY FOR THAT MATTER CAN DO TO STOP JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES, OKAY? LET THAT SINK DEEP INTO YOUR THICK SKULL, HITLER DID HIS OWN DID IT WORK? WHAT OF JOSEPH STALIN OF THE USSR? WHERE IS THE USSR TODAY?
