Christianity EtcRe: Animals That Feel Pains Of Birth, Did They Eat The Forbidden Apple Too? by DavidEsq(m): 3:28pm On Feb 04, 2018

Don't mind him jor. Dis is wat happens wen ppl chooies and philosophies as the basis of their opinions of the bible, rather than the bible itself.
Na so one talk say na God tell am say tithe paying is ordained by God and relevant in presents day Christianity.

So sometimes I see animals give birth and they moan and groan as a result of the pains they feel.

And I start to wonder if they ate the forbidden fruit and was cursed too.

So why do they feel pains like children of Eve?
Eve was supposed to feel pain in child birth, but not at an intense level. Gen 3:16 tells us that God told Eve that he wld INCREASE her pain in child birth. So she was supposed to feel a measure of pain, as well as animals. Only that her rebellion caused God to punish her by increasing the pain of child birth above the normal measure that God purposed as at the time b4 their rebellion.

You peeps lifting verses out of context to back up what isn't so.

Check the link...

https://www.ucg.org/bible-study-tools/bible-questions-and-answers/what-does-1-corinthians-13-verse-8-mean-when-it-says
“Prophecies” can mean either inspired preaching or foretelling the future. How will prophecies “fail”? The word “fail” can be misleading; as it might give the impression that some of God’s prophecies will not occur. The Greek for “fail,” katargeo , is defined as, “1. to render idle… 2. to cause to cease” ( Thayer’s Greek Lexicon ). Notice the following renderings—”they will cease” (NIV), “they will be caused to cease” (Literal Translation Version), “they shall pass away” (English Standard Version).
Isn't that exactly wat I said? It wld cease.

God's word spells out these things in black an white, u are there looking for vision, which the bible has long gone beyond. Visions have long ceased. 1 Corinthians 13:8-13.

CioAngels:
Sincerely, is there anything like right choice? Or the grace of God?
There is a thing as "right choice". because Proverbs 27:15 tells us dat a quarrelsome wife is like a leaking roof on a rainy day, and Proverbs 5:20 warns men not to be captivated by a wayward woman. Proverbs 31:10 talks about finding a virtuous or capable wife. Lastly 2 Corinthians 6:14 warns us from being joined with another who is incompatible with us.
So, yes, there is something as right choice. Wat people refer to as the grace of God is actually supposed to be "God's standard of who is right for us, as clearly spelt out by God's word, the bible".

Wen God has given us a clear line of standards, we choose to run after prophesies (stories). It's a wonder why we complain, wen prophesies (stories) fail us.

Christianity EtcRe: Will The “Great Crowd” Be On Earth When Armageddon Breaks Out? by DavidEsq(m): 3:24pm On Feb 03, 2018
Hairyrapunzel:
An even greater mistake would be to allow the faults of others to stumble us and cause us to leave Jehovah's organisation. Were that to happen, we would lose not only the privilege of doing God's will but also the hope of life in God's new world." Watchtower 2016 Jun study ed pp.25-26


"Really, our survival involves being devoted to Jehovah God and learning about the kind of conduct and deeds that please him. (Zephaniah 2:3) Rather than following the majority today and ignoring the clear signals that we are living in such important times, we need to “keep close in mind the presence of the day of Jehovah.” Jehovah’s Witnesses can show you from the Bible how you can be a survivor of this upcoming day." Watchtower 2015 May 1 p.8


"If we stop actively supporting Jehovah's work, then we start following Satan. There is no middle ground." Watchtower 2011 Jul 15 p.18


"But Jehovah's servants already belong to the only organization that will survive the end of this wicked system of things." Watchtower 2007 Dec 15 p.14

"But if we were to draw away from Jehovah's organization, there would be no place else to go for salvation and true joy." Watchtower 1993 Sep 15 p.22


"Direct Interest Progressively on Bible Studies: The primary purpose of a Bible study is to teach the truth of God's Word. It should also build in the student an appreciation for Jehovah's organization and make him aware of the vital need to become part of it. ... The weekly Bible study should include instruction that will help students appreciate the organization and take advantage of provisions for their salvation. Take a few minutes each week to relate or describe something about the organization and how it functions. You can find helpful talking points in the November 1, 1984, Watchtower. The brochures Jehovah's Witnesses in the Twentieth Century and Jehovah's Witnesses Unitedly Doing God's Will Worldwide discuss major facets of the organization and how they may benefit us. Arranging for Bible students to view the video Jehovah's WitnessesThe Organization Behind the Name will let them see for themselves what it is accomplishing." Kingdom Ministry 1993 Apr p.3

"They must appreciate that identifying themselves with Jehovah's organization is essential to their salvation." Kingdom Ministry 1990 Nov p.1

"But what must they do to survive the violent destruction of Satan's old world and enter the promised new world under the Greater Joshua, Jesus Christ? (2 Peter 3:13) They must keep in line with the organizational arrangements of the nucleus of Jehovah's visible organization, the anointed remnant." Watchtower 1989 Sep 1 p.15


"Only Christian witnesses of Jehovah who successfully pass this test will survive and come forth like fire-refined gold for God's use in his precious new order." Watchtower 1985 Mar 1 p.14

"At this stage of the affairs of man, it is absolutely impossible for anyone, professed Christian or otherwise, to stand independently of the one organisation that is bearing witness worldwide to Jehovah, his goodness and supremacy in accord with the 145th Psalm and, in fact, in accord with all the Scriptures." Yearbook 1982 p.259

"And while now the witness yet includes the invitation to come to Jehovah's organization for salvation, the time no doubt will come when the message takes on a harder tone, like a "great war cry."" Watchtower 1981 Nov 15 p.21

"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

"This great crowd is part of the only truly united multinational organization on earth today. They do not cry out that they owe salvation to the holy spirit, for they are not servants of a trinitarian god. In some 200 geographical territories around the earth, they are at one in calling upon the name of Jehovah as they speak the one pure language of truth. (Zephaniah 3:9) Properly, they publicly acknowledge that their salvation comes from Jehovah, the God of salvation, through Jesus Christ, His Chief Agent of salvation.-Psalm 3:8; Hebrews 2:10. Modern technology has helped to make the loud voice of the united great crowd sound even louder. No other religious group on earth has need of publishing Bible study aids in more than 200 languages, since no other group is interested in reaching all peoples of earth with one united message." Revelation pp.122-123
I see, bro. U are right. Oya drink , water grin.
Now, on a serious note, Genesis 6:7, 13 & 14. Gen.7:21 show the destruction of all flesh, but a few (Noah and his family). Noah's preaching to the ppl of the imminent danger and plea to join in the ark was rebuffed by the people. Their failure to turn from their ways and identify with the ark (God's refuge or chosen congregation) led to their destruction. So it also was with d ppl of Sodom and gomorrah (Gen.19:12-28, Jude 7).
Now Jude 7 tells us that these events are examples of wat is to come against evil peepz.
1 Corinthians 10:11 also tells us dat that these tins wr written down to serve as a warning to us......."
My conclusion is that if the JW are convinced that they Worship God in accordance with scripture based standards, then wldnt it be ryt for them to express their beliefs that they have the benefits that Noah and Lot enjoyed?
Moreso, I don't think that is the center point of our activities. We preach and teach the bible and not our organisation or belief system, in a denominational sense.
Lastly, Revelation 18:4 clearly warns all faithfuls to come out of Babylon the Great or get consumed in her punishment from God.

Then I guess the question shld be "are we following God's standards of wat an ideal mate shld be"?
Several of us follow our own whimsical ideals of wat a mate shld be like. If we measure our expectations with God's standards, den we can say we have God's guidance. If not, we deceive ourselves.
The next question wld den be:
"What's God's standards of wat a mate shld be"?

Even at that, it still doesn't matter. No matter how careful an individual can be in the choice of spouse, ask all the questions, dig deep as you can into the persons life, if the grace of God is not there or his involvement, you will find out in the end you made the wrong choice. I have personally experienced it twice, only God knows the heart of man and the end from the beginning. No man can tell another mans heart, only God can.

Whatever anyone does is in the 'hope' that it goes well if he/she excludes God. It more or less a gamble no certainty whatsoever. For someone like me, my OCD will reach crescendo.
Is dah so? So let m understand wat u mean by "the grace of God". U mean God's guidance?

MsNgo40:
Yep you are so correct brother.
"Doing" things as opposed to "being" (meaning having character) is the problem that many Christians struggle with.
It's all about the heart...and how one has allowed the Holy Spirit to transform it.
I'll be the first to say that the Lord is still working on me....
I just think about Matthew 7:22 and 1 Corinthians 13....and pray to the Lord to truly transform me and check my motives...
We may fool people (all the time)....but not God (anytime) who sees and knows the motives of the heart.
Even the concept of speaking in tongues is being misinterpreted. The tongues has nothing to do with a heavenly language. It's a miraculous speaking in other people's languages. In Acts 2:7-12, the Galileans Jews, wr said to speak the languages of the Persians, Medes, Parthians, Elamites, Egyptians, Arabians, etc about the wonderful things of God. In other words, speaking the wonderful things of God meant preaching and the result was that Peter was able to preach to all of them and they all understood him, despite being of different languages.
