MizJanet:Neither Apostle Paul nor me is confused here but only the person who couldn't grab the message the blessed Apostle is conveying. please if No man is gonna understand, how will the Interpreter understand in other to interpret?Then you will need to understand that there's different between SPEAKING IN TONGUES to pass message to the congregation [color=red]AND SPEAKING IN TONGUES by oneself in communicating with God. Which the blessed Apostle had thoroughly explained. If I may ask,what happened on the day of Pentecost; were ALL THE PEOPLE speaking in tongues delivering message to themselves or they were just speaking in tongues, is there any interpreter that day or they only communicate with their God? is the interpreter not a man ?Not ALL SPEAKING IN TONGUES need interpretation UNLESS GOD wants to pass message to the congregation through speaking in tongue, you can be praying by speaking in tongues, does that need interpreter too? That's why if you read Apostle Paul details about speaking in tongues it dualistic 1. Using speaking in tongues to communicate to God personally & 2. God passing a message to the congregation through that medium which needs INTERPRETER but you people confused the two together. Go back and read that 1 Corin 14:2 slowly this time. |
Barristter07:Then where did you find it? i.e that ANY SON involved in the creation work or the creation was done through any Son? in the Hebrew scripture? even though u know its perfectly wrong.When you don't know what to say again. Now do you get the point? That's the main thing here. @ underlined ... then, this thread is not for youIt's for me because you're not to grab my point is your problem. The whole things boiled down to how you understand my concept of human race as ONE MAN(NATURE). |
Barristter07:That's wonderful, so you mean Only Job has the concept of son of God in the OT? Besides, it's God Himself who is asking the question not Job talking about the SONS(plural) of God unlike king Nebuchanezzar who confessed the Son of God personally and He isn't a Jew. Lastly, the Son of God I'm talking about is the one who ALL THINGS were created through Him. Do they(the OT people) have the concept? dont let confusion set in .You're just coming up! The MAN here is NATURE so if you replace NATURE with MAN. You'll get ONE NATURE. So, for me to say human race/mankind is ONE MAN(NATURE) I'm right. Thanks for the correction but I know what I'm saying. Now do you get the whole gist? in line with the bold, I ASKED : if one Lord means ONLY ONE Lord , then God in that same verse is ONLY ONE God , agree ?Whereas I didn't make my point through that verse alone. My point was through the whole NT revelation itself. OT = ONLY ONE LORD (God) NT = ONLY ONE LORD (Jesus Christ) |
dolphinheart:This is my reply to someone's post above which is a gross misunderstanding of what actually happened on the day of Pentecost. This is the main part you people always miss, everybody was hearing them in their OWN NATIVE language [size=14pt]AS The Spirit gave them the utterance.[/size] You people always miss the fact that it was HOW & WHAT The Holy Spirit wants them to speak THAT they will speak, it's not a PATTERN forever and this is an evident that The Holy Spirit has A WILL. later when the apostles was talking about speaking in tongue in a congregation(church), he specified guidelines to be followed, do you follow it those guidelines today?Does it come to your understanding that what Apostle Paul was talking about there, is passing a message to the congregation? Infact Apostle Paul said "For he that speaketh in an UNKNOWN TONGUES speaketh not unto men, but unto God: [size=14pt]for NO MAN UNDERSTANDETH HIM;[/size] howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries." 1Corin 14:2 Things to notice here: 1. The language is an UNKNOWN TONGUES 2. The speaker speaks not UNTO MEN but God 3. NO MAN UNDERSTANDS the speaker but you people ALWAYS PROVE that the speaker supposed to be understood every time). My emphasis is on point 3 'NO MAN UNDERSTANDS HIM' please if what happened on the day of Pentecost is a PATTERN everyone speaking in tongues must follow why would Apostle Paul here say again that NO MAN UNDERSTANDETH HIM? Remember, everyone (ALL MEN) in that place understood what the Apostles were saying as you stated in your post. |
Barristter07:Solomon being called the Son of God is very understandable to all Bible students. But my own 'Son of God' is the one who was with the Father before the creation. Do they have that concept? May be you can show us from the scriptures. Mind you, this isn't even the only concept the OT people couldn't fathom about God. present your fact and the terminology u used to arrive at that conclusion, then I can speak on this.OK, what I mean is this by NATURE mankind (that is human race) is ONE MAN (only ONE nature), true or false? So if I say; we're ALL MAN, I don't expect you to think of a female to be called MAN in respect of using MAN for a male. I'm expecting you to grab the distinction between human being and other beings. the bold is the main concern of this thread, if one Lord in that scripture is ONLY one Lord and not three in one Lord , then do u admit that one God in the same verse is ONLY one God ?You missed the point. I said "GOING BY YOUR LOGIC" That is, if the OT people have the concept of ONE GOD. Then on that note, they (OT people) also have ONLY the concept of ONE LORD (which is God) and in the NT the ONLY ONE LORD we have is Jesus Christ. Grab that! ONLY one ?Yes One! |
Barristter07:Just as the concept of 'Son of God' was not known to them. but trinitarians object that one God is actually a combination of three persons and EACH is God.But do you object to the fact that the whole human race is ONE MAN? Your understanding of this statement will determine your level of understanding of Trinity. again , one God cannot be three persons. its either one Single God or nothing else.Your conclusion is irrelevant here. What matters is the revelation God reveals about Himself. CAN ANY TRINITARIAN USE THE SAME ILLEGAL LOGIC THEY USE IN EXPLAINING THE TRINITY TO EXPLAIN THIS SCRIPTURE:Going by your logic, there's only ONE LORD known in the OT which is God but in the NT Jesus Christ is the ONLY ONE LORD. That means Jesus Christ is God. three in one HOPE ?Are these things person? ** is this scripture to be understood as single one or three in one ?To be understood as ONE! |
JMAN05:Do I even care? Please if you know you can't refute my post stop mentioning my moniker. I know the next thing you will tag me is to call me an APOSTASY simply because I always expose your Watchtower Publications' lies. You ignored me; for what? Am I the one who controlled your brain to write that Prov 8 is ALLEGORICALLY talked about Jesus Christ who was endowed with the wisdom of God? OR I force you to write that Prov 8 is a prove that INANIMATE THING can be given ANIMATED ATTRIBUTES? OR used your hand to type that Prov 8 is a prove that the Father is talking to His Son Jesus Christ on the same breath of writings? Just show people on this thread that I was the who attributed those statements to you that you never said anything like that. Mr man wake up from your delusion! |
donnie:They are Jehovah Witness who have right to tell a part of the Bible that is LITERAL or ALLEGORY even when most Bible scholars disagreed with their claim. That's what you get when one decides to twist the Word of God out of context. |
JMAN05:You know nothing about me sir. The brother has said it all "Wisdom is inanimate to you when it suits you and a living person when it doesn't" Which in my summary what I termed 'Your Confusions'. You're not the only JW who has made that statement almost all JW do. They are so quick to use Prov 8 as a prove that some INANIMATE THINGS were given personality in the Bible. [size=14pt]THIS IS DONE TO SUPPORT THE CLAIM THAT HOLY SPIRIT ISN'T A PERSON.[/size] But when they want to prove that Jesus was created they sited THIS SAME Prov 8. This is to tell you how you people cherry pick the word of God to suit whatever you want it support. Mind you that's how you do to the WHOLE SCRIPTURE. Your own is to prove my post wrong by showing me where you didn't make those summarized statement. |
Jozzy4:I know who I'm speaking with but I have to address your origin because watchtower society is the one that formatted your brain. |
joyandfaith:You're a fool indeed for parading the internet every hour defending right of your satanic Watchtower LIES. You called me PATHOLOGICAL LIAR but when your organization deceptive quotes of the same nature like the OP were put right on your very face you couldn't say a word anymore. Hypocrite! At least nobody among you could prove my quotations wrong that's why you people trying harder to divert from the main point. |
Jozzy4:Of course! Those are the gods of watchtower society. |
Jozzy4:What do I expect from you before! Then why are you shouting the name JEHOVAH up and down if Jesus is the only Key to the means of salvation? Then do you recognise Jesus as THE KEY to your salvation or your organization is the key? |
Jessicha:Was Jesus Christ a man now, which name was given among men & which name are you using in your devotion everyday? |
paulGrundy:You can see how ALL of them avoid this thread like a plague but before they were screaming LIAR. Now that the table has turn on them they went mute. |
joyandfaith:That's how you jump into my thread and called me a pathological liar but when I put forth evidences from your Watchtower publications how they made quote the same way I did, only for you to disappear because to call Watchtower Society a PATHOLOGICAL LIAR will be hard for you. |
JMAN05:As usual I know you have nothing to say after your lies statement has been exposed. Again, you said "That place speaks of wisdom, but this is wisdom personified. And the context shows that the bible is [size=14pt]allegorically talking about Jesus who is endowed with the wisdom of God."[/size] And later said this "Inanimate things are often given animate attributes, even though they are not. The wisdom at Prov 8 is one example" And finally asked after quoting some Bible scholars who gave their explanations on Prov 8 "That is just some. Don't you see reasons to accept that Jesus was the one the Father was talking to?" Summary of your confusion. 1. Prov 8 is ALLEGORICALLY talking about Jesus Christ who is ENDOWED with the wisdom of God 2. Prov 8 is talking about INANIMATE THING that was just given an ANIMATED ATTRIBUTES. 3. Prov 8 is a prove that The Father is talking to Jesus Christ. Confuse fellow! |
JMAN05:So what are these Bible Scholars say about other Biblical passages like John 1:1, Heb 1:6, 8; Col 1:15; 2:9? If you know you're truly presenting their view about Bible and not just cherry picking their statement. Imaging, after you said the @bold you can still go ahead to ask that question. Very pathetic! Inanimate things are often given animate attributes, even though they are not. The wisdom at Prov 8 is one exampleNow you said Wisdom is an inanimate thing according to Prov :8 but said someone must see the reason to accept that Jesus was the one The Father was talking to in Prov 8 above. SMH Barnes' Note states:Now quoting Barnes but can you give us some quote from Barnes about other Biblical passages i.e John 1:1, Heb 1:6, 8; Col 1:15; 2:9? Failure to do so will show the level of your hypocrisy. Mind you I have ALL Barnes' COMMENTARY with me. |
Buharism:That's unscriptural but your earlier post ("but today you cant understand what the pastor or what other church members are saying while speaking in tongue."') didn't specify this instead attacking ALL SPEAKING in tongues this day. |
Buharism:Was it only DURING DAY OF PENTECOST speaking in tongues occurred in the Bible AND has this DIVINE EVENT stopped on the day of Pentecost? nobody knew he was speaking in tongue,Then do people speaking in tongues today tell you they know what they're speaking? infact everybody was hearing in their own native language what the apostles were saying,This is the main part you people always miss, everybody was hearing them in their OWN NATIVE language AS [size=14pt]The Spirit gave them the utterance.[/size] You people always miss the fact that it was HOW & WHAT The Holy Spirit wants them to speak THAT they speak, it's not a PATTERN and this is an evident that The Holy Spirit has A WILL but today you cant understand what the pastor or what other church members are saying while speaking in tongue.The Bible says: "AS The Spirit gave them utterance" Why are you fighting against The WILL of the Holy Spirit? . May the good Lord show us the way to enternal life. AmenThe Only Way to eternal life is Jesus Christ and He says "He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water, 39 But speak of the Spirit which they that BELIEVE in him should receive..." Has this Living water sprung out of you? |
goodnews201668:At least you never pointed out any plank that was in my eyes whether I'll admit or not. But what will you say on Watchtower deception quotes pointed out on this thread so far? because you haven't said anything yet about this thread only ranting up and down. If you don't know what to say kindly craw back to where you belong to as your brothers and sister have done. |
goodnews201668:Why will you take me serious when your watchtower lies are being exposed? Don't you know that you hate the truth? I repeat it you call me a liar but refuse to call your watchtower a liar for doing the same thing that I did. What a hypocrite behaviour. |
Jessicha:Shameless liar, see how she's trying hard to defend this obvious lie from the pit of hell. Am I the one who provided the books you used in your defence of the OP? For you to defend yourself, go on research and do as you did to the Op. It's evident that Watchtower publications used deceptive quote to brainwash you people, why I did that in the Op you people tagged me a liar but working harder from all angles to prove watchtower society is right for what she did. Mind you the more you come here to rant the more I will continue to expose your lie organization. Here is another Case; CASE 2: JW quote from should you believe in Trinity Justin Martyr, who died about 165 C.E., called the prehuman Jesus [size=14pt]a created angel[/size] who is "other than the God who made all things." He said that [size=14pt]Jesus was inferior to God[/size] and "never did anything except what the Creator . . .willed him to do and say." The key underline phrases, "created angel" and " inferior to God" are not Justin's but the Watchtowers own words no where in Justin's writings such words were found. What a pathological LIAR organization. |
goodnews201668:And you can't see how your Watchtower lies being exposed here... |
Jessicha:Like I said, you're just attacking strawman without taking your time to digest my counter post. Now you resorted to "FREE FLOW OF THE SENTENCE" But let's see whether you truly understand yourself by trying hard to defend the lie your organization engaged in. by hidding °not° , the guy statement read Jesus said what enters the mouth defiles a man . which is an outright lie . same thing u did with the publications sited .Yes I agreed, but for Watchtower publication to quote a part of statement and left the rest out which actually change the true meaning of the author's point of view and conclusion isn't OUTRIGHT LIE, abi? Just Continue... but checking Darwins quote and what u posted as his full statement , is the free flow of the sentence altered ? no , its exactly as its written in the book .Answer me, does it appear in Darwin's statement that he sees anything as a problem which Watchtower attributed to him? "Darwin acknowledged this as a problem." While quoting Richard Lewontin Watchtower said this; “Zoologist Richard Lewontin said that organisms ’appear to have been carefully and artfully designed’. He views them as ’the chief evidence of a Supreme Designer’” In your mind of perjury, can't you see how this man's statement was twisted by watchtower to suit their false teaching? Notice it was the word 'THAT' which was removed by watchtower that change the sentence forever and also that a FULL STOP was placed after "DESIGNED" by watchtower whereas the statement of Richard is a continous one with They have morphologies, physiologies and behaviors that appear to have been carefully and artfully designed to enable each organism to appropriate the world around it for its own life." [size=14pt]nd the purpose of the Ellipse is to remove the irrelevant details,[/size] check Darwins quote , the point left out by the Ellipse is his descriptions of the eye which is irrelevant to the subject in discussionJust imaging rubish thing you said @bold, who told you they are IRRELEVANT? HOW CAN YOU BE SUPPORTING A DECEPTIVE QUOTE LIKE THIS? who have right to render someones work irrelivant? ----- then you shifted to darwin Acknowledge this as a problem, a sane person asks ? what is that THIS that the writer believe darwin acknowledge?Another way of diverting attention, before verse 17 vr 16 has already pointed out that Jesus performed many healing MIRACLES BY THE WORD OF HIS MOUTH. So just quoting out vr17 is what Watchtower always does leaving the main point. the writer explains that at the preceeding statement at matthew 8:16,.You're right, so go back to my counter posts and see the details are there. |
paulGrundy:You can see how she's trying the more to prove those watchtower publications right and prove me to be a liar. The funny part of it was that they didn't know the purpose of this thread before they began to call me all sought of names. But the saddest part of it is that none of them can call Watchtower society A LIAR now, despite the fact that, what I did that made them to tag me A LIAR was the same thing Watchtower society did. |
Jessicha:Why you continue to defend lie. how can you quote words out of a single sentence @ underlined and u are not ashamed ?I see you're still trying harder just prove Watchtower right and still nailed me to cross when what I did was the same thing watchtower did in their publications. Firstly, you can see ELLIPSES in between those words which means something is missing and by doing that the original view of the author and the true meaning of that sentence is lost. That's why you can verify and came up with the real statement which made you called me A LIAR. Secondly, Watchtower also used this same tactics by USING an ELLIPSE to hide the true view of the author or lost the actual message the author is conveying. Lastly, I asked what is the different between what I did and what Watchtower society did? with reference to Jesus statement at matthew 15:11 . which of these is a fraud and a liarYour illustration is vague and hold no water. No matter how you twist it or trying to justify it you're wrong and in fact you're even exposing watchtower publications' fraud more. [size=14pt]in case you don't know Watchtower society uses the two references you sited in short there are many cases where Watchtower society will make a statement and attributed their own statement to the author their quoting. Did I do that here?[/size] so using this line of argument won't help you at all. Here are the examples: CASE 1: 4. JW from Creation BookLook at the underline statement attributed to Darwin, does Darwin acknowledge any problem in his statement? NO! But watchtower said he did. Look at the ELLIPSE, does anyone reading watchtower quote wont think Darwin truly confess why HIS ACTUAL STATEMENT HAD BEEN HIDDEN AND WHAT THEY LEFT OUT OF HIS STATEMENT WHICH CONCLUDED EVERYTHING ABOUT HIS VIEWS, WERE NOT FOUND. Lastly, the word by [EVOLUTION] was not the actual statement of Darwin it was inserted by Watchtower the actual words in his statement are "by natural selection," Let me just stop with this case 1 because it's enough evident that your illustration is baseless whereas I'll advice you to go back to my counter posts (FIVE 5 POSTS) which none of you have not refuted and read them one by one this time because I know you didn't bother to read them in details since it's already about Watchtower. You'll see that everything in your illustration covered. The only people who can't see it in my counter posts are the ones Devil has blinded their conscience. |
tempem:Between, what do you have to say about your own Watchtower who did the same thing that I did? I can see you didn't bother to talk about your own Organization. And God who created heaven and earth knows that I proved you wrong with my references.And God who created heavens and earth knows that Watchtower also uses the method to deceived you. Does Watchtower society a liar just as you called me a liar? Now you're calling on God when you cant use the same word you used for me on Watchtower OR when you can prove my post wrong but cant prove watchtower publications wrong. And you think God will be happy! Your suggestion should best fit you...You're right and that's why I know the truth. Mat 24: 45&46 has shown that we'll really have those that'll be feeding us spiritual food..Yet those who supposed to be feeding you with this spiritual food wrote the same way I wrote which you believed you've proved wrong but never say anything about their writing. Heb 10: 24&25 shows that it's vital not to forsake our meeting together.The meeting of the true believers not a liar like JW. Please, don't quote me again. I won't dignify you with a mention.Now I should not quote you again after I've exposed the bitter truth about your organization. You rushed to this thread thinking you've seen an Apostate lying about your organization, you went on vigorous research and came back with a result happy that you've finally cleared issue but unknowingly to you that the OP is just a silence point of turning the table on you. And see, God will be the Judge between me and you if I never proved your references a huge lie. Bye.I Agreed! But let the same God be a judge between you and me if you've done enough justice to this thread and let your conscience says of the truth whether you're being truthful to yourself here. |
Jessicha:Shaking my head for you, I've said initially that I'm just using the same tactics that JW always used. This is what you posted to counter that statement, if my statement wasn't there how will you find out? Humans are made from dust. (Genesis 2:7; 3:19) We are not spirits living in a body of flesh. We are physical creatures, so no part of us survives death.The bold parts are the ones I quoted out, then hiding the rest with ellipse just the way your organization usually does. But remember you said STATEMENTS means PLURAL. Again, from which source did Richard C declare this statement written by JW? “Zoologist Richard Lewontin said that organisms ’appear to have been carefully and artfully designed’. He views them as ’the chief evidence of a Supreme Designer’” |
You're now singing another song. tempem:And you couldn't say this at first but quickly went on research. But before I'll ignore you,Have you done a research to confirm what I posted the way you did at beginning? If not you're not being truthful to yourself. please help me with this: "If witnesses were a false religion, please show me where to head.They're false religion just as I've proved it with fact and the way you verified my post with fact. Well you have your Bible, then do more research on It (Use different version, find out what the early fathers practiced and seek God personally). |
Jessicha:And you couldn't see this in your organization quote as well hypocrite! seems u forget that in your own case, YOUR STATEMENTS ARE NOT FOUND IN THE PUBLICATIONS REFERENCED, ARE THEY?Jesus!!! You can come with this broad day lie. Show me just one of my statement that was not found in any publication I quoted. Devil himself will be afraid of your lie. but am happy you show the world that the statements quote by the witnesses are FOUND IN THE AUTHORS QUOTESMH...It was found there but twisted and misrepresented. Shame on you for defending the indefensible. Asiri JW ti tu, opuro .You don't even have shame |
4. JW from Creation Book “Darwin acknowledged this as a problem. For example, he wrote: “To suppose that the eyes … could have been formed by [evolution], seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest degree.”” Creation Book p. 18 What he really said: ”To suppose that the eye with all its inimitable contrivances for adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting different amounts of light, and for the correction of spherical and chromatic aberration, could have been formed by natural selection, seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest degree. When it was first said that the sun stood still and the world turned round, the common sense of mankind declared the doctrine false;” Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species, 1859, p. 133 5. JW quote from should you believe in Trinity booklet “And the new Catholic Encyclopedia also says. “And the doctrine of the Holy Trinity is not taught in the O[ld] T[estament]””. Should you believe in Trinity p.6 What it really said: “The doctrine of the Holy Trinity is not taught in the OT. In many places of the OT however, expressions are used in which some of the Fathers of the Church saw references or foreshadowings of the Trinity. Cc: Jessicha, Tempem, Xenox, joyandfaith |
