Christianity Etc › Re: One Horrible Lie Taught By The Jehovah Witness. by dorox(m): 12:53pm On Dec 12, 2018 |
TruthinAction: The JW has quite a lot of false teachings but one that blows my mind is that God will not judge us by what we do on earth but by what we do on Judgement Day.
The scriptures they use to back up this false teaching are
1. Romans 6:7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.
2. 2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Let's examine the first. A dead man certainly is lifeless in his dead body and sin therefore cannot dominate him. But what message is Apostle Paul trying to pass across here. He wants us to see ourselves as those who were dead with Christ and rose again. So, sin should not have dominion over us. He is not saying that the moment you die, you have been discharged of every form of guilt and condemnation for the sins you commit. Even an insane man knows this is a fat lie. So, if I kill someone, I will not be judged by it after death. This is about the most stupid doctrine ever heard. If it's true, it's a sure license to sin and the world will be full of wickedness.
The second Scripture says that one day is as a thousand years and a thousand years is like a day. But the JW reads it this way - One day is a thousand years and a thousand years is one day. This is not what the verse is saying. This is the use of simile. It does not say one thing is the other but uses the word as or like to compare two things.
No sane human should remain in this deceitful organization unless you have been slain from the foundation of the world. Save yourself from these false religious groups and embrace the gospel of our Lord Jesus. Imagine that you borrowed money from the bank with your house as collateral against the full loan. Now if you are are unable to pay back the loan and the bank takes possession of your house in exchange for the full value if the loan as agreed, would it be wrong to say that you are now free of that debt? That is how it is with humans. Sin has put us in a huge debt that we cannot possibly repay unless by our very own lives. That is why the Bible says that the wages of sin is death. When you sin as indeed all men have, then the outcome is death. So, at death the debt brought through sin is fully paid. But in order for us to have everlasting life someone else have to pay the debt of sin for us which Jesus has done for all humans that chose to exercise faith in him. And we cannot claim to exercise faith in Jesus' ransom sacrifice without making meaningful adjustments to our way of life to be in harmony with the guide lines set by Jesus. So yes, when we die we are freed from sin as the debt is fully repaid with our lives. But to live one must exercise faith in Jesus ransom sacrifice. |

The "poor church rats" have always been the needy widows and orphans that are unfortunate enough to rely on the church for basic sustenance, and at no time did that expression ever referred to your greedy religious leaders. |

Awon RCCG members on nairaland where are u at? Daddy G O Adeboye have driven his car for long distance on numerous occasions without a single drop of fuel in it but the power of his faith alone. He said it, and it is a fact. Pastor Chris has also done it countless number of times as well. Just that he sometimes likes using water in place of petrol. Let me tell you something you don't know, these men of God are no ordinary men, they operate on a higher level. The only reason they buy fuel is to provide jobs for the fuel attendants to enable them pay their tithes and move from glory to glory. |

So the pastor thinking they are actually Vigilante guys went straight to them with the intention of giving them something. And the Robbers seeing someone walking straight to them with that kind of confidence opened fire on him and that was it. Cóck and bull story. |
