Ọmọ this is the funniest post ever!

Please where did records of dates regarding the time of creation of earth and the period of Christ's birth come from?
God's inspired prophets or secular historians? cheesy

Did those your so called archeologists and historians agree with the Bible's record of dates that this planet is less than 8,000 years?
Speaking from ignoramus angle as usual just to divert from the main point!

How many scholar agree with 607BC.

For your diversion, watchtower actually go with the same historians, archeologists and scientists that earth is actually Billion of years old.

It was even some Christians who actually trying to use Bible to justify the age of earth within the Biblical context.


Stop deceiving yourself!
Your so called historians and archeologists are the same people telling you that the earth and humans have been here for millions of years so how do you want God's people to place what these people say above God's word?
But watchtower agreed with them!

Your lying mouth has been exposed once again

@achorladey @Courz cheesy grin cheesy

Our Master, Lord and King prayed for us:

"Sanctify (Jehovah's Witnesses) by means of the truth; (Bible)your word is truth"

So stick to calculations from your archeologists and historians while we stick to calculations in God's word: Bible! smiley
But you stick to the same calculation.

Where did you get your 537BC that you added 70 years to to arrived at your 1914?

Hypocrite!
Christianity EtcRe: JW 008 The Year 1914 by Emusan(m): 4:08pm On Jun 15, 2024
MaxInDHouse:
OK your so called historians didn't say anything about Jesus that confirmed they're in harmony with what Jesus' friends penned down shey?

Well that's the point: God's people are in a world of their own! John 17:14-19 wink
That's not the point!

The same historians you don't want to take serious and gaslight into thinking they didn't say anything about Jesus are the ones you rely on for the date 537BC you started counting your 70 years from.

So, if you can't provide just one scholar who supported your 1914 date, then you shouldn't use the same historians date of 537BC since they are Jesus enemies grin cheesy grin cheesy grin

Hypocrite!

This thing is really hitting you hard that you have to mentioned my moniker twice!

You already quoted my post which means you're referencing me, so why must you be spamming my mention within the same post again?

Aemmyjah:
answer this 3 questions?
1. Was Yahweh accurate that Jerusalem will be destroyed by the Babylonians?
YES!

2. Was Yahweh accurate that the king of Babylon take the Jews captive to his own land?
YES!

3. Was Yahweh accurate that Babylon (the former world power ) will be destroyed by Cyrus without a battle
YES!

4. Was Yahweh accurate that the Jews will regain freedom from Jerusalem
YES!

5. Was Yahweh accurate that the Jews will spend 70 years, not 50 years , 70 years in Babylonian captivity?
YES! 70 YEARS IN CAPTIVITY

Answer the 5 questions and let us see whether it's the JWs you're trying to shame or the God of the Bible who you claim to worship
I've answered!

So who did I shame, Jws or God?

Now, your turn to answer my question.

Do you agree with the archeological evidence that Jerusalem was destroyed in 587BC?

Just provide a single historian outside Jesus' friends who agree that what is written in the New Testament is true! smiley
There is Josephus and Tacitus.

So can you provide just one scholar who supported the destruction of Jerusalem as the year 607BC?
Christianity EtcRe: JW 008 The Year 1914 by Emusan(m): 9:33am On Jun 15, 2024
Aemmyjah:
The Jews were released from Babylonian captivity as Jehovah promised
As Jehovah also foretold, they would spend 70 years as captives in the land so 537- 70 years leads to 607 BCE.
So where did you get the 537BC from?

A. Bible
B. Archeologist
3. Watchtower publication

A Bible believer will accept that or resort to history.
A Bible believer will accept both Bible and archeological evidence because they never contradict.

The funny thing is, you people thought there's no explanation for the 70 years by historians but the truth is Watchtower decided to ignored those explanation because it contradicted 1914.

Yes! In case you don't know the 70 years was also explained by the historians.

Definitely, you're ignorant of this!

If I want to rely on history, I can as well believe that Moses, Pharaoh, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joshua conquest of Canaan, Davod and Goliath, Tower of Babel, Joseph of Egypt never existed and the Exodus never happened or the plagues cos the ancient Egyptians who were meticulous in their history has not shown any such proof.
Stop lying just to please your gods in Warwick.

We have archeological evidence for David existence and more were still been unearthed.

So when you think u can shame us by choosing side of history
Here come the victim mentality.

Did watchtower not chose the side of history by agreed with the year 537BC?

So because 1914 never had any archeological support we should just agree with watchtower simply because they said so.

Is that how you become a graduate in science?

when we support God's word,
Not blindly.

Then you will see the lies of watchtower trying being sold to you.

Do your research and see how the historians explain the 70 years.

Stop watchtower deception of we are following God's word

remember that history itself can make u think that many people and events and places in the Bible never happened

So rest
Not when archeological evidence involved.

Do you think the year we are talking about is just an historians research work?

O ma se ooo

Again, there is an ARCHEOLOGICAL EVIDENCE THAT SUPPORT 587BC do you know what that means?

Continue to be restless with the truth.

So I should take you serious over archeological evidence.

The fact that you can't provide a single scholar who agreed with you on this speaks a volume.

Well, if it's not giving you HPB you won't open this thread in the first place.

How many years did Jehovah say that his people will be in captivity? 70 years or 50 years?
You didn't answer my question!

Which one should a Christian accept? That of 70 years leading to 607BCE (which is a conclusion based on the Bible prophecy) or from secular historians whose data is not always accurate?
From where did you start counting your 70 years?

Even if all the historians points to a date that contradict what Bible points me to, I will still choose the Bible. Let God be true and men be found a liar
Until you answer the very basic question.

Where did you start counting your 70years?

What did you add to arrive at 1914?

Where did Bible provide those information?

Sure, let God be True and let men be lie.

Your gods in Warwick are also MEN, don't forget.

MaxInDHouse:
I have answered this before but for the benefit of other followers of my thread i will respond!

587 B.C.E. is an error by historians but they're not ready to accept the correction because it's coming from JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES.

The year God's people were taken into captive supposed to be coherent with the 70 years God declared that the Jews will spend in exile but if we are to go by the year 587 B.C.E. there will be a glitch as the years would be 50 not 70 years. So if it's 50 years then it means God's promise regarding the 70 years is false.

Do you now see why God's people stick to 607 instead of 587 B.C.E.?

Most historians don't believe only the Bible so they don't follow up with God's word!
Lying liar!

Who declared 607BC as ERROR?

We're talking about archeological evidence, yet the lying liar says 587 is an ERROR.

well, your gods must be proud of you for doing his works perfectly.

You lie openly and when caught you turn to blaming game.

This was his complete statement: "And when we were JWs back then, we would look at these Gilead missionaries as Holy people going to preach the Good news, not knowing that they are spies for the government. This missionary thing has been used by the Catholic Church to penetrate lands in order to conquer them for the government to take possession. This missionary work has been used to do evil if you read History. Was it not through Missionaries that the Slave trade began and advanced in Africa?"

Why did you DELIBERATELY crop the beginning of his statement if not because you want to lie just as watchtower usually does when quoting external source?

That's deception, lie and false information!

This is where you spoiled the whole thing!

How can you say God commanded something and at the same time some churches are not practicing it yet you want to admit that they are Christians and such is OK for them?
This is where it's evident that you don't understand even what you've been saying since.

Sabbath is a commandment
Circumcision is a commandment
Tithe is a commandment

But these 3 three predated the law.

Today you circumcised your son.

Yet you made it clear before that circumcision isn't A CHRISTIAN thing.

Can you see how confused you are?

Today, you can DECIDE to go to your hall ANY DAY you choose because Christ has consummated the Sabbath day.

Is that practice Biblical? Yes!

That is the same thing with Tithe!

That's why you and your friends are always at loggerheads with Jehovah's Witnesses because to Jehovah's Witnesses whatever we are sure God mandated for his worshipers must be practiced any group not doing what God says are not worshiping that God who commanded it.
So where did God says you should go to hall on Sunday or any other day?

So you're not a Christian as i've always told you real disciples of Christ must have the same line of thought on what God required of His worshipers {John 17:22; 1Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:3} it's pagans that contradicts one another yet agrees they're worshiping the same God! smiley
He has started his ranting!

I'm not the one who claimed:

1. The name Christian is cursed and bastardized

2. As a result of being cursed and bastardized, our gods have given us a new name.

3. Whosoever thinks he belongs to Christ as a Christian should think twice.

But the same you is the one who knows WHO IS A CHRISTIAN OR NOT.

No!

The point here is that any church collecting Tithe are not doing anything wrong.

The most misconception is that TITHE IS NOT MEANT FOR CHRISTIAN.

If any church DECIDED not to collect TITHE, good for them.

Even most churches that didn't collect Tithe create other avenues to generate money.
Christianity EtcRe: Why Jesus Didn't Talk Much About Tithing. by Emusan(m): 5:16pm On Jun 08, 2024
MaxInDHouse:
Perhaps you need to know that back in the days of Israelite high priests they're the ones who tells the people what to do under the old covenant so since Jesus the new High Priest never demanded tithes from anyone but time to do the most important work he was assigned to do {John 4:34} there's no going back to what has ended: the old covenant!
High priest don't demand Tithe from anyone, I've corrected this your lie before.

Jesus didn't call Himself High Priest, so how can people give him Tithe?

Besides, their were already High Priest during the day of Jesus, so Jesus can't just be claiming to be an High Priest when He is not from Levites.

Meanwhile let me correct you on some things you you don't understand.

Neither Tithing nor Sabbath nor Circumcision is part of the new covenant
You're a liar!

Sabbath, Tithe and Circumcision are part of ETERNAL practices even before making it to the law.

You'll I already explained this in my first post just that Chirst brought their true MEANING.

You already agreed that both people must GIVE SOMETHING BACK TO JESUS like Melchizedek.

So going back now to claim Tithe isn't part of the new covenant is delusional.

It was that same truth made you to say, what Jesus demands is our TIME and TIME is MONEY.

It's evident you're agreed that scripture supported TITHE but as usual defending doctrine and not the scripture is the reason you're trying to spin or reverse your words.

that's why Paul and Bandanas were sent to the Apostle and elders in Jerusalem to know what the Holy Spirit says about these laws that came with the old covenant. Act 15:1-2

The Apostles and the elders in Jerusalem said:

“The apostles and the elders, your brothers, to those brothers in Antioch, Syria, and Ci·liʹcia who are from the nations: Greetings! Since we have heard that some went out from among us and caused you trouble with what they have said, trying to subvert you, although we did not give them any instructions,we have come to a unanimous decision to choose men to send to you together with our beloved Barʹna·bas and Paul, men who have given up their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are therefore sending Judas and Silas, so that they also may report the same things by word of mouth. For the holy spirit and we ourselves have favored adding no further burden to you except these necessary things: to keep abstaining from things sacrificed to idols, from blood, from what is strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you carefully keep yourselves from these things, you will prosper. Good health to you! Act 15:23-29
This has nothing about Tithe.

The office of High Priest exists today and God's command is for people to give Tithe to the High Priest.

So neither Tithing nor Sabbath nor Circumcision has anything to do with Christianity! smiley
You're a liar!

The writer of the book of Hebrew won't go that length to call Jesus the High Priest in ORDER OF MELCHIZEDEK for nothing.

Let the truth hit you hard!
Christianity EtcRe: Why Jesus Didn't Talk Much About Tithing. by Emusan(m): 9:43pm On Jun 07, 2024

Exactly!

The new High Priest offered his body that's why monetary tithing ends because it's what was used to pay for the services of those in charge of animal sacrifices! Hebrews 7:11-12 smiley
Monetary TITHING ENDED but TIMING TITHING didn't, right?

After I've quoted that Heb 7:11-12 several time you're still repeating it grin cheesy grin cheesy

Please lecture me where the scriptures stopped animal sacrifices but retained tithing which was meant for the services rendered by those in charge of animal sacrifices: priests! smiley
About Tithe Melchizedek was alluded and you confess yourself that PEOPLE MUST GIVE SOMETHING BACK TO JESUS just as Abraham did to Melchizedek.

Even though I know you don't want to call it TITHE as scripture says.

But you eventually said "this requires time and since time is equivalent of money whoever is doing this work..."

Now, about animal sacrifices, Jesus OFFERED HIS BODY!

Animals sacrifices aren't ETERNAL PRACTICES but Tithe, Sabbath and Circumcision are!
Christianity EtcRe: Why Jesus Didn't Talk Much About Tithing. by Emusan(m): 9:24pm On Jun 07, 2024

The same scriptures supported animal sacrifices so don't speak against those sacrificing animals since it's found WRITTEN as part of the law!
I know you'll come with this line! grin cheesy grin cheesy

The writer of the book of Hebrew already addressed everything including animal sacrifices.

Or you want me to lecture you on that?

Finally, I'm glad you see that scriptures supported TITHE!
Christianity EtcRe: Why Jesus Didn't Talk Much About Tithing. by Emusan(m): 9:10pm On Jun 07, 2024
MaxInDHouse:
I thought you agreed that Jesus is the High Priest through whom people from other nations became members of the house of faith but obviously you don't understand so let me teach you!
You forgot I brought the issue of High Priest up.

Definitely you don't know what you're saying.

No high priest in Israel is equal with Jesus who entered the Most Holy (Heaven) not with the blood of animals but with his own blood to redeem mankind. Hebrews 9:12
That is the point!

That is why if you study the book of Hebrew 7 very well you understand why why the Writer says "8 The priests who collect tithes are men who die, so Melchizedek is greater than they are, because we are told that he lives on. 9 In addition, we might even say that these Levites—the ones who collect the tithe—paid a tithe to Melchizedek when their ancestor Abraham paid a tithe to him.

So as the High Priest that connected gentiles to God's glorious assembly all must bow to whatever he commanded {Philippians 2:10} He didn't ask us to pay tithes so there's no reason to bring it to him but he commanded us to spend our precious times in preaching zealously and industriously teaching all the things he taught us {Matthew 10:11-13; 28:19-20} this requires time and since time is equivalent of money whoever is doing this work {John 4:34} is paying something precious to our new High Priest!
at @color is sufficient and seal everything for me.

Now you can't deny knowing scripture supported PAYING OF TITHE.

So don't twist scripture further just obey God!

That's nice!
Christianity EtcRe: Why Jesus Didn't Talk Much About Tithing. by Emusan(m): 8:42pm On Jun 07, 2024

Melchizedek was given tenth part of what the patriarch got so Paul used it as example for his Jewish Christian brothers that they need to give Jesus the new High Priest something just as Abraham also gave Melchizedek something but since both Melchizedek and Jesus aren't physically present what they will give them can't be physical.
Now:

1. You agreed that Heb 7:11-12 didn't end the law.

2. Jesus being in the ORDER OF Melchizedek means Tithe must be given to Him.

Today true Christians are giving their time directly to the High Priest by making sure they join others monthly to preach and teach in their neighbourhood just as the new High Priest Demanded from his own people! Matthew 10:11-13; 28:19-20
You're giving your time DIRECTLY TO THE HIGH PRIEST BUT I CAN'T GIVE MY MONEY DIRECTLY.

You're going against God's standard and you have started your manipulation.

So whoever is paying money or physical things isn't giving that to the new High Priest because that's not what he demanded from his people! smiley
That's what the law says, no law says you should give your TIME TO THE HIGH PRIEST.

JESUS never even CALLED HIMSELF HIGH PRIEST so how can you attributes Matt 10 to His High Priest?
Christianity EtcRe: Why Jesus Didn't Talk Much About Tithing. by Emusan(m): 8:26pm On Jun 07, 2024
MaxInDHouse:
The law to pay tithe ended when the human system of priesthood end! Hebrews 7:11-12
I've already clarified that Heb 7:1-12

Here it is again: "So if the priesthood of Levi, on which the law was based, could have achieved the perfection God intended, why did God need to establish a different priesthood, with a priest in the order of Melchizedek instead of the order of Levi and Aaron? 12 And if the priesthood is changed, the law must also be changed to permit it. 13For the priest we are talking about belongs to a different tribe, whose members have never served at the altar as priests.

Why did the writer allude to Melchizedek being given Tithe by Abraham as Jesus became a Priest in the ORDER OF MELCHIZEDEK?

Note: Melchizedek was not portrayed as HUMAN PRIEST!
