This first century carpenter in Nazareth has become a new York based publishing company called watchtower organization in the present day. Therefore, watchtower organization now claims to be Jesus Christ. Interesting. When you call out their evil non biblical doctrines they start spewing rubbish and lies about Jesus Christ saying he said this and said that to justify their doctrines that their leaders formulated. You believe that since Jesus Christ made a statement in the Bible, your Leaders can make a contrary statement because they are now Jesus equivalent and the holy spirit.

To the issue on ground:
Jesus Christ didn't say 99.9% humans or billions of non Christians will die because they refused to believe him or join him
On the other hand,
Watchtower organization said that 99.9% of humans and 8 billion non jws will die because they refused to join a publishing company called watchtower organization and believe and obey the 8 old men in new York leading it.

Why are u scared of following the bible in practice? Why also do you like to lie in order to proof a lost point? so God has an original plan that is not written in the bible.

1. Please always state your Church before commenting.
2. On some occasions those who fail to state their churches are simply ashamed of that church...and
3. A few persons people without church affiliation are simply irresponsible, not wanting to be held against some known principles!

Now back to the question?

Riofidelio:
Why will God gruesomely destroy all those who refused to join those following the ideas and opinions of a first century carpenter in Nazareth?

99.9% because they refused to join a publishing company called watchtower organization. Always complete it.
Also talk about the 8 billion non jws that will die so that 8 million jws will live forever on earth.
Be giving false figures. No wonder you people went to predict false date (1975) grin grin grin grin grin grin grin as the end of the world only for your jehovah to claim he lied about the date.

Are you doubting the scriptures below! paranoid Pentecostal.


13 Go in through the narrow gate. The gate to destruction is wide, and the road that leads there is easy to follow. A lot of people go through that gate. 14 But the gate to life is very narrow. The road that leads there is so hard to follow that only a few people find it. Matthew 7:13-14 Contemporary English Version (CEV)

13 “Go in through the narrow gate,o because broad is the gate and spacious is the road leading off into destruction, and many are going in through it; 14 whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life, and few are finding it.

Don't mind them grin grin grin grin. They have been falsifying figures since they started their company.
It may also be due to the fact that tertiary education is greatly discouraged by the old men in new York. So he can't do basic arithmetic

You were justifying the fact that your jehovah will slaughter 99.9% of the human population yet you can't justify the reason behind these non biblical claims.
You are even ashamed of your belief. You wanna hide your belief and only elaborate on the fact that 99.9% are doomed for destruction by your God only. You don't want to state the other side that these 99.9% are killed because they refused to join a publishing company.
You can't hide your beliefs. Do you know that your organization preaches that if you don't believe that 99.9% of humans will die for not joining your organization, you are an opposed and apostate?
You think you can just kill 99.9% of the world population in your head and literature because they refused to join your publishing company?

Why would your all loving jehovah murder 99.9% of humans ie 8 billion non jws because they refused to join watchtower organization, a publishing company with headquarters in new York headed by 8 old men?
Why will your jehovah gruesomely murder these people because they refused to acknowledge these old men as the only channel of communication between God and man?
Why will your jehovah commit the greatest genocide known to man because people decided not to obey a non biblical doctrine?

They want to go faster than god. Every day they preach that the end of their world is imminent yet they are not god. They don't even know that God said we should flee from those kind of people. I think they are fixated with death of no jws rather that living a good and godly life here on earth. Their jehovah should come and kill people because they don't belong to their organization/ publishing company so that they will live forever on earth.

If God is omnipotent (all-powerful), why did he take six days to create everything? Why not speak everything into existence all at once?
Let's start things off right. What word is used for God during this 6 day creation? Perhaps one should first learn the terms used and then re-think what is really going on here. There are multiple Hebrew words used for God throughout the Bible. Why?
Why won’t God heal amputees?
Who's to say healing them is the right thing? Do you know how they became that way? Do you know the lessons they need to struggle through to grow? Growth comes through adversity. You grow through challenges.

If God is so perfect, then why did he create something so imperfect allowing pain, suffering and daily atrocities?

Why did the little old lady that God healed one Sunday need her walker to get around again next Sunday? Was she only temporarily worthy of a healing?
How did Noah fit the millions and millions of species on this planet into his ark?
It's a metaphor. It's a story.
If Noah did fit all of these species on the ark for forty days and forty nights, how did the penguins make it from Mt. Ararat to the Antarctic? How did the koala bears make it to Australia with no eucalyptus to eat along the way?
It's a story. What is the message being told?
Why do innocent children have to suffer with terminal diseases such as cancer? What part of ‘God’s plan’ is this exactly?

Why can’t the all-powerful God not forgive someone of their sins after they die?
Example: A christian man that is seemingly on God’s good list makes a stupid decision and decides to drink a little too much at the fish fry. On his way home he crashes into a mini-van killing a mother and her two children and himself. This man led a very faithful life and made one stupid, yet grave mistake. If this man did not ask for forgiveness of his sins before the electrical activity in his brain ceased, then God will judge him and send him to hell to burn for eternity.

All these ones will not let you off the hook. Why will your jehovah kill 99.9% of humans because they didn't join a publishing company called watchtower organization and obey the rules of their leaders?

Why will you god murder over 8 billion people because they didn't choose a path he never mentioned in the Bible? which path are you presently following, will apostasy get you there?

Questions for people who are ashamed of revealing the identity of their churches

1. If salvation is "solely by grace," why are not all people saved since "the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men" (Titus 2:11)?
2. Jn. 10:30 teaches that Jesus and the Father are one. But does this mean one person or a unity between persons? Does 1 Cor. 3:8 then mean that Paul and Apollos were one person? Does Eph. 5:31 mean that a husband and wife are one person? See also Gen. 11:6 and Jn. 17:21 for examples. Jn. 17:21 indicates that the "oneness" of the disciples was to be just like that between Jesus and the Father.
3. Since Acts 2:38 teaches that the baptism commanded is "for the remission of sins," is there any reason to believe that any other cases of water baptism were practiced for any other reason (e.g., Acts 10:48, 19:5)? [If so, where are the scriptures that indicate it?]
4. Since Acts 8:36-38 teaches that baptism is by immersion (i.e., "down into water" ... "up out of the water"wink, is there any reason to believe that any other cases of water baptism were practiced in a different way (e.g., Acts 2:41, 10:48, 16:15,33)?
5. Since Acts 2:4-11 teaches that when men spoke in tongues (i.e., "as the Spirit gave the utterance"wink, they spoke actual, understandable human languages, why believe that any other cases of tongue speaking were in languages which could not be understood (e.g., Acts 10:46, 19:6, 1 Cor. 12-14)?
6. Since all examples of miracles in the NT were definitive and clearly visible signs, wonders and powers [review them all to verify this], why apply the word miracle (in the biblical sense) to things that clearly do not fit that description today? God acts in the affairs of men today, but if these actions qualified as NT miracles, they would be impossible to deny (Jn. 11:47-53, Acts 4:13-22).
7. Since the miracles in the NT were for the purpose of confirming the newly-revealed word (Mk. 16:20), what new revelation (i.e., not in the New Testament) is being confirmed by miracles today?
8. If we cannot understand the bible alike, how are we to understand the confusion being generated by everyone claiming to speak under the influence of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 14:33)?
9. If someone receives the Holy Spirit when they are saved or at baptism, why did the Samaritans, who were saved, in Acts 8 not yet have the Holy Spirit?
10. Someone claiming to speak in tongues and heal, should also be able to drink deadly poison, be unaffected by the bites of poisonous snakes, and heal with 100% success.
11. 1 Cor 13:8-13: Whether Paul intended it or not, one cannot walk away from this illustration, without thinking that God was telling the Corinthians that the spiritual gifts belonged to a "childhood" stage in the church. Hence, spiritual gifts are not a sign of "spiritual elitism", rather they infer that something is missing or not yet complete.
12. Why do people look over their soldier for the catcher, just before they are slain in the Spirit?
13. If tongues is so centrally important, why is the gift of tongues not again mentioned after Acts 19:6 and the book of first Corinthians?
14. Why are Pentecostal healing revivals FULL of genuinely and undisputedly crippled wheelchair-ridden people who NEVER GET HEALED

1. If Jesus was resurrected as an invisible spirit, like the Watchtower teaches, why did Jesus say he was going to raise his physical body from the dead (John 2:19-22)? grin

2. If Jesus, the man, ceased to exist at his death and was raised from the dead as Michael the Archangel, why did Michael deceive the apostles into believing that they were witnessing Jesus in a resurrected physical body (Luke 24:39)? grin grin

3. If Jesus is now living in heaven as an invisible spirit creature, like the Watchtower teaches, why did Paul write many years after the ascension of Christ that he is dwelling in heaven in a physical body (Colossians 2:9)? Note: The Greek word, somatikos, means physical, tangible body. grin grin grin

4. If Jesus is now Michael the Archangel, why does 1 Timothy 2:5 say that the mediator between God and men is the man, Christ Jesus, and not the spirit, Michael the Archangel? grin grin grin grin

5. Can you show me a verse in the bible that clearly says Jesus is the Archangel Michael? How can Jesus be Michael since Hebrews chapter 1 stresses the superiority of Jesus over the angels and that all the angels worship him? Why would Jehovah command that the entire angelic realm worship another angel? Note: The Watchtower bible changes the word worship, in Hebrews 1:6, to “do obeisance to”. However, see section below on the New World Translation. grin grin grin grin grin

6. Since the Watchtower was wrong in the past about many of its teachings and the light continues to get brighter (Proverbs 4:18), how do you know that the current teachings are correct and won’t change? grin grin grin grin grin grin

7. Why did the Watchtower magazine (Nov 15, 1981, p. 21) say to “come to Jehovah’s organization for salvation” when Jesus never directed us to an organization for salvation but to him? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

8. When you joined the Jehovah’s Witnesses, did you read information for and against the Watchtower so you could make an educated and well rounded decision based on both points of view? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

9. Has anyone become a Jehovah’s Witness after reading the bible alone without the aid of Watchtower material? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

10. If I were to join the Jehovah’s Witnesses, would it be okay for me to do research into the Watchtower’s past by reading non-Watchtower material? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

11. Since the Watchtower was in error many times in the past, are you obligated to believe that all the current teachings are God’s truth? grin

12. If Jesus’ invisible presence began in 1914, like the Watchtower teaches, why was the Watchtower teaching in 1929 that Jesus’ invisible presence began in 1874? How did they finally figure out that that teaching was false?
Reference: Prophecy, 1929, p. 65. grin grin

13. Since the Watchtower claims to be God’s prophet ( The Watchtower , April 1, 1972, p. 197) and have falsely predicted Armageddon to occur in 1914, 1918, 1925 and 1975, do you think they meet the criteria of Deuteronomy 18:20-22? grin grin grin

14. Can you show me in the bible where it says to give false prophets a second or third chance to get it right? grin grin grin grin

15. If the Watchtower really is Jehovah’s prophet, like they claim, can you show me anything they predicted that came to pass? grin grin grin grin grin

16. Why did Hebrews 1:6 in the 1970 version of the New World Translation say, “Let all God’s angels worship him” and not “do obeisance to him” like the new versions say? grin grin grin grin grin grin

17. Why does the New World Translation insert the word “other” four times into Colossians chapter 1 when it isn’t in the Greek manuscripts at all? Doesn’t this change the meaning of the text? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

18. Why does the New World Translation place the comma in Luke 23:43 in a different location than it does every other time when Jesus says, “Truly I tell you”? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

19. Can you show me a list of Greek scholars who approve of the New World Translation’s New Testament translation? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

20. Can you show me a list of the people who were on the New World Translation Committee along with their credentials in the ancient Biblical languages? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

21. If the Watchtower’s teaching that the 144,000 were filled in 1935 is correct, can you explain how Jesus, his apostles and their immediate followers couldn’t get 144,000 converts in 1800 years, but the Watchtower got 6 million converts in 125 years? grin

22. Why does the Watchtower teach that only 144,000 people are born-again when 1 John 5:1 says that everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God? grin grin

23. Why is there only one judgment period from God to test the endurance and worthiness of the 144,000 before they are guaranteed of eternal life, but the other sheep have to endure through this life, the 1000 year millennium plus pass an unknown final test before they are counted worthy of eternal life? Why is salvation so much easier for the 144,000? grin grin grin

24. If Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are not part of the 144,000 with a heavenly hope, why does Jesus say in Matthew 8:11 that they will be in the kingdom of heaven? grin grin grin grin

25. According to Jesus in John 17:3, how many true Gods are there? Would you say that whatever is not true is false? Doesn’t the New World Translation call Jesus “a god” in John 1:1? Since there is only one true God and all others must be false, is Jesus a true God or a false god? grin grin grin grin grin

26. If Jesus was God’s Master Worker in creation, why does Jehovah say, in Isaiah 44:24, that He created all things by Himself? grin grin grin grin grin grin

27. If Jesus is a created being, why does he get twice as much worship, in Revelation 5:12, as Jehovah gets in Revelation 4:11? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

28. If Jehovah created Jesus, why does John 1:3 say that all things came into existence through Jesus and apart from him not even one thing was made? Doesn’t this place Jesus outside the realm of created things? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

29. If everlasting life comes by taking in knowledge (John 17:3), how long do I have to study with the Jehovah’s Witnesses to be assured that I have enough knowledge to live forever? 1 year? 5 years? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

30. If we pay for our personal sins when we die, like the Watchtower teaches, how will the great crowd who survive Armageddon pay for their sins since they will never die but go right on living into the millennium? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

You had to tie these figures - at Revelation 9:18 - you forged in your head to bible passages and yet it still didn't fit: https://www.jesus-is-savior.com/billions_of_people_going_to_hell.htm.

Luke 13:23, 24 - The first angle to the many versus few theory

No figures are given Sir. Why would your leaders assume a percentage of 99.9% and say they are on Satan's side when the bible never stated such?
That means they guessed, assumed, speculated and gave a false impression.
The 99.9% you said will be on Satan's side are people who don't belong to watchtower organization.
In other words, the 99.9% will be slaughtered because they refused to join a publishing company.

Still no mention of the world billions. You guess, you assume and speculate.
Well, you want to justify billions dying because they refused to join a publishing company.
The bible passage doesn't talk about billions of non jws dying

So at the end of the day 99.9% of earths population and billions of non jws will die because they refused to join an organization which is a newyork based publishing company called watchtower organization and obey the 8 old men in new York.
Meanwhile all these are not in the Bible they are only seen in magazines printed by this publishing company called watchtower.

What do you know about Jehovah’s Witnesses? Some people have called them Christian propagandists, a new Christian cult, a Christian sect influenced by Judaism, or fanatics who reject medical treatment. Actually, the Witnesses are none of these things. Why do some people think such things about them? Mostly because those people have been given wrong information.

As their name shows, Jehovah’s Witnesses are Witnesses for Jehovah. Who is Jehovah? Jehovah is the name that Almighty God gives to himself in the pages of the Bible.* It is a personal name, not a title like God or Lord. In a general sense, throughout history anyone who witnesses to God’s glory could be called a witness of Jehovah.—Exodus 3:13, 15; Isaiah 43:10.

Thus, the Bible, when listing a long line of faithful men of old starting with Abel, calls them “so great a cloud of witnesses.” (Hebrews 11:4; 12:1) Outstanding individuals, such as Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, and David, are listed as God’s witnesses—witnesses of Jehovah. Jesus Christ is called “the faithful and true witness.”—Revelation 3:14.

Why Witnesses Are Needed

The Bible says that man was created perfect and placed in a paradise. The Creator made him with the ability to live forever, to have children, and to extend the boundaries of his Paradise home worldwide. At that time man knew his God, and there was no need for witnesses.—Genesis 1:27, 28.

God endowed man with free will, but our first parents made a wrong decision. They chose to be independent of him. Hence, while God remains perfect, just, and pure, mankind on earth became sinful and unrighteous. Nevertheless, our holy God will allow sin and wickedness to continue only for a limited period of time. The Bible indicates that we are near the end of that divinely permitted time period. So that mankind can know these things, He has preserved His Word—the Torah, the Psalms, and the Gospel—down to our day.

Since most humans do not know God, he has commanded faithful humans to witness about him. To such faithful ones he says: “You are my witnesses.” (Isaiah 43:10) About the work they accomplish, he says: “This good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations.”—Matthew 24:14.

Today, more people than ever before, from all races, languages, and nations, are honestly investigating God’s Word. They have found that many religious customs are of pagan origin and are displeasing to God.

As you may know, some have used religion for commercial purposes. Others have used it to further their political ends or to get rich at the expense of the poor. How do you think such religious profiteers react when a true witness about God is given? Obviously, they feel threatened. That is one reason why you may hear some speak evil of Jehovah’s Witnesses.

Whatever the cost, Jehovah’s Witnesses adhere closely to the Bible. They have not invented a new religion. They merely follow what is written in the Torah, the Psalms, and the Gospel, which is the foundation of true religion. What, then, do they believe? Below are listed some of their teachings. Read and see whether these have the ring of truth or not.

No Trinity

The Bible does not teach the Trinity doctrine. Rather, it says that there is only one true and eternal God. “Jehovah our God is one Jehovah.” (Deuteronomy 6:4) He is the Creator—eternal, almighty, without equal. Jesus is not Almighty God. Jesus lived on earth as a perfect man and died for imperfect mankind. God kindly accepted the life of Jesus as a ransom, and thus through him is the salvation of the faithful. This is God’s will.—Luke 22:42; Romans 5:12.

No Immortal Soul

What happens to people when they die? God’s Word says: “The living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all.” (Ecclesiastes 9:5) Man does not have an immortal soul. People who think they are talking to the dead are really communicating with demons. Similarly, prayers for the dead benefit no one except the clergy who are paid to utter them.

Resurrection

Man’s real hope is the resurrection, the coming forth of the dead to an earth restored to Paradise conditions. Those who have served God will be blessed for their faithfulness. Those who have died without finding God will have that opportunity then. Thus, “there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.” (Acts 24:15) Only those whom God judges unworthy will not receive a resurrection.

No Hellfire

A loving God would not create a place where the dead suffer eternally. God himself described the burning and torturing of humans as “a thing that I had not commanded and that had not come up into my heart.”—Jeremiah 7:31.

No Fate

God does not write anything on the foreheads of people. There is no fate that determines our future before we are born. We are responsible for what we do, for the choices we make. “Each of us will render an account for himself to God.”—Romans 14:12.

No Clergy Class

Everyone dedicated to God is equal in His eyes. True worshipers are all brothers and sisters. God did not appoint an elevated clergy class. Jesus said: “Everyone that exalts himself will be humiliated, but he that humbles himself will be exalted.” (Luke 18:14) God will judge adversely those who through religion elevate themselves over others.—Matthew 23:4-12.

No Idolatry

“God is a Spirit, and those worshiping him must worship with spirit and truth.” (John 4:24) True worshipers do not use idols.

Neutral in Politics

Jesus said his followers would be “no part of the world.” (John 17:16) Hence, Jehovah’s Witnesses do not interfere in national or local politics. Further, they are a law-abiding people.—Romans 13:1, 5-7.

High Moral Standards

Jesus described how to recognize true worshipers when he said: “This is my commandment, that you love one another just as I have loved you.” (John 15:12, 13) Another chapter in the Bible says: “The fruitage of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, self-control.” (Galatians 5:22, 23) Those manifesting these qualities do not lie, steal, gamble, abuse drugs, or commit sexual immorality. (Ephesians 4:25-28) They love God, so they avoid things that God hates. These principles govern the lives of Jehovah’s Witnesses.

The Approaching End of This World

What makes our time different from other times? Fulfillment of prophecy shows that we are living in the last days of this system of things, this world. (Daniel 2:44) Today, the issue is, Do the things we do please God? God is one, and there can be only one true religion. This religion cannot be out of harmony with the Torah, the Psalms, and the Gospel. Hence, we must examine that Word.

That is what Jehovah’s Witnesses do. Whatever your religion, you need to do the same. Nobody can make a decision for you in this regard. Remember: “Each of us will render an account for himself to God.”—Romans 14:12.

No individual is born a Witness of Jehovah. Every single Witness makes a personal decision. After making an honest search of God’s Word, the searcher recognizes truth, and on this basis he dedicates himself to the true God, whose name is Jehovah. If you would like to make a similar investigation, please write to one of the addresses below.

Unless otherwise indicated, all Bible quotations are from the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures.


In the world of Islam, the Bible consists of the books known as the Torah, the Psalms, and the Gospel. At least 64 verses of the Koran speak of these books as the Word of God and emphasize the need to read them and to carry out their commands. Some assert that the Torah, the Psalms, and the Gospel have been changed. However, to say this is to ignore the words of the Koran and to say that God cannot preserve his Word.

You know you guys have been justifying killing over 8 billion non jws including children, newborns, and fetuses because they didn't join you publishing company called watchtower organization.

You actually take delight in wishing for your jehovah to gruesomely murder these people because they didn't obey 8 old men in new York. This is the sickest thing I have ever heard. How do you guys even sleep? No wonder most jws suffer from anxiety, depression and schizophrenia.
You want to justify you non biblical doctrine.

Show me the bible verse where God used an organization to save his people?

You can't bring out any grin

Show me where governing body is mentioned in the Bible? no passage still to bring out grin grin

Show me where God says if you don't join a publishing company/organization he will gruesomely murder you in Armageddon? No passage still.

They are only written in watchtower magazines.

Hairyrapunzel:
I see many Jehovah's witnesses here saying they want their new world and for this present system of things to end
The irony of this statement is that they hope for their Jehovah to come to slaughter billions of non jws so that their new system will come. What is more inhumane than this?
How are you different from the so called wicked people?

Well I think you will wait just like your founding fathers have been waiting since 1879

If you like bring out different links to justify your claims that all non jws will die because they refused to join a publishing company called watchtower organization.

Unlike your publishing company, These people did not say associating with their church is the only way to be saved.

If you like o throw tantrum from here to jericho. Your leaders teach that over 99.9% over 8billlion non jws including children and fetuses will be slaughtered/gruesomely murdered by your God because they refused to join a publishing company called watchtower organization.

Lol. You wanna cover up your non biblical beliefs

For the third time, these are the non-biblical quotes:
1. Matthew 7:13-14 - On Satan's side will be all the rest of mankind, more than 99.9999999999 percent
2. John 5:28-30 NIV - Hope for dead earth's billions

Why will watchtower give percentage when Jesus didn't give? Why will watchtower claim to be what they are not when bible didn't say? It shows you guys jus obey and follow what's written in magazine instead of bible. You do the things you crucify Christendom for doing.

why, why, why, why....
1. Matthew 7:13-14 - On Satan's side will be all the rest of mankind, more than 99.9 percent grin

Family / Re: 19-Year-Old Orphan Who Refused To Abort Pregnancy After She Was Gang Raped by enimooko: 5:25pm On May 28, 2018
alBHAGDADI:
When the news about Freeze advising the 17 year old girl to disobey her parents and the Church by having abortion after she was raped by armed robbers broke last week, I remember how some people who call themselves Christians were supporting him, It made me wonder what is being taught in Churches these days. People now think Christianity is all about blessings and prosperity without suffering anything for Jesus Christ.Many of the people who dropped comment were making excuses that they cannot allow their daughter have a child who is the product of armed robbers raping her. They all supported abortion. They forgot that it stands against God's commandment.[size=10pt]Exodus 20:13
13 Thou shalt not kill.
They do not know that aborting the pregnancy is the same as killing the unborn life in the girl. What if the girl dies in the process? That means they have successfully killed 2 humans. In your stupidity to get rid of the pregnancy, you killed your daughter in the process.
Those who made such comments even backed it up by stating that no one would want his daughter whom he loves so much to have such a child. Their statement shows how much they forgot about God's word. Mathew 10:37 "Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. Because of the love for your daughter, you disobeyed God's righteous command ''Thous shall not kill''. YOUR SINS will compound the more. You think Christianity is all about receiving blessings alone?
Some even asked for what God was thinking when He allowed armed robbers to rape their daughter. Perhaps, your stupid actions caused it all. When your daughter was wearing skimpy and stripper clothes in the house and around the neighborhood, what were you thinking when you failed to caution her? Perhaps, the skimpy clothes she wore was what seduced the armed robbers to rape her.
Keep listening to Freeze and his kind who are out to lure you further away from God. It's not as if you were close to Him before. That's because you attend a Church where they don't preach the truth anymore. That's why you can't suffer disgrace or anything for Christ.
Acts 5:41
The apostles left the Sanhedrin, rejoicing because they had been counted worthy of suffering disgrace for the Name.

Rape is a very difficult subject when it results in pregnancy. The most important person in the decision must be the victim(s) and their supporters

THE NINE LIES OF TODAY’S CHURCH -by Andrew Strom.

-A call for massive ‘Reformation’ – before it is too late.

It is a sad fact that today’s church is deceiving itself in some very crucial areas. Below are some plain facts (-absolutely true) that may shock a few people:

1. “Ask Jesus into our heart” is not in the Bible. Neither is “Give your heart to the Lord”, or repeating a “sinner’s prayer”. These practices do not exist in Scripture at all. The subject of salvation is the most important subject in the Bible and we are being lied to about it. These doctrines are a total fabrication. They were invented to make salvation “quick and convenient”. Many church members today who are relying on these things are clearly not ‘saved’ at all.

2. Church buildings do not exist in the Bible. They were invented around 200-300 AD, when the church was in serious decline. Only a backslidden church could fall so far away from the simplicity of the early church. Church buildings are anti-New Testament, and bring with them a host of problems and traditions. It was basically when the church fell into the hands of Rome that this concept of the “cathedral” really took over. And we are still spending millions on these monuments today.

3. The “one pastor runs everything” model is totally unscriptural. Far from running everything, in the book of Acts we find the word “pastor” NOT EVEN USED ONCE. (-The early church did have strong leaders and elders. But it was never a “one man band” like we see today. And never was it so “controlling” either).

4. “Tithing” is not a New Testament practice at all. And it is being shamefully abused by today’s preachers. In the New Testament we are told to give cheerfully – whatever we purpose in our hearts to give. Telling people that they MUST give 10% to the church or they are “robbing God” is totally sick – and a money-grubbing way of twisting Scripture. There is no evidence that the apostles EVER preached ‘tithing’ to New Testament believers. It was clearly regarded as an Old Testament practice.

5. The words “prosper” or ‘prosperity’ were NEVER used by Jesus at all – and only exist a couple of times in the entire New Testament. Yet greedy preachers have built whole kingdoms upon them. The words – “sell what you have and give to the poor” and “deceitfulness of riches” and “you cannot serve God and mammon” and “woe to you that are rich” were DEFINITELY used by Jesus and the apostles. But we don’t hear these things preached too much, do we?

6. There were no Bible Colleges, Seminaries or degrees in the New Testament. The only people who seemed to have “Bible Schools” were the Scribes and Pharisees! The apostles were simple fishermen and tax collectors. It is likely that a number of them could not even read or write. What was their “qualification” for being in the ministry? Simply that they had SPENT A LOT OF TIME WITH JESUS. The fact that people expect a “professional clergy” today with degrees from Bible College has helped to make the church sicker and more unscriptural than ever. Simple humble people with a calling from God often cannot get to minister because they do not have a “piece of paper” to make them ‘qualified’. -Yet another disaster for the church.

7. There is almost no evidence whatsoever that the early church had their “main meeting” on a Sunday. They gathered together ‘from house to house’ virtually every day! There were no church buildings. They did not dress up and “go to church”. There were no denominations. There were no separate groups with different ‘labels’. They lived their lives together – all the Christians in the local area. Love and fellowship and ‘koinonia’ were as natural to them as breathing. And the apostles in Jerusalem preached every day at huge open-air gatherings. -Not “hidden away” inside four walls. This was truly a “street church” in every way.

8. The idea that you can replace the moving of the Holy Spirit with programs, programs and more programs just shows how low we have sunk. Man-made programs are everywhere today. The early church had much more of God and much less of ‘man’.

9. We preach a ‘humanistic’ Jesus today. -A Jesus who exists mainly for our own “happiness”. A Santa Claus who wants to rain down continual blessings upon us. A God of grace and mercy without judgement, righteousness or truth. Our gross misrepresentation of who Jesus really is, is one of the most serious offenses of the modern church. Today’s church seems to worship a “plastic” Jesus – one that she has made in her own image. What an offense to God.

A lot of preachers are well aware that there is something very wrong with the church today. They know there is little ‘fear of the Lord’. They know there is no deep repentance or deep moving of the Holy Spirit. They know that it is just the same old “game” being played every week. A lot of them are very aware of this. But they will not do anything about it. They will not rock the boat. And they will “squash” anyone who comes along trying to do something. They do not want a real “shaking”. There is too much to lose. They have their careers and their little ‘kingdoms’ at stake. This is the real truth of the matter. This is where the rubber truly meets the road.

That is why God is about to bring “Great Reformation”. He will not put up with these ‘hirelings’ any longer. He will not have them as leaders over His people. A lot of them are about to “lose their heads”. They will never lead God’s people again.

This is what true ‘Reformation’ is all about. It is the process of replacing the old leadership and the old lies. -It is David taking over from ‘Saul’.

There is a ‘New Wineskin’ coming. In fact it is upon us. There is a new leadership arising – many of them trained in the ‘wilderness’ for such a time as this. The hour is now here. LET THE NEW LEADERS ARISE! The sad fact is that today’s church has sunk so low that it is almost a matter of people needing to be RESCUED OUT OF HER. I never thought I would say something as radical as that, but it is the truth.

Much of the church is living a lie. Many inside her are told continuously that they are “OK” – that they are saved and headed for heaven. Nothing could be further from the truth. Multitudes of them are headed directly for hell. The systemized LYING that is going on has deceived the leaders and the people alike. It is the blind leading the blind. We need to contend for these people – desperately. Much of the church is “lost”. They are mired in deception – an entire system of deception.

Kindest regards in Christ,

Andrew Strom.

Where are the bible passages. If you like say what I didn't ask you. Talk from here to Jericho. If you cannot provide Bible passages that states that an organization is the only way to salvation or jehovah will slaughter people because they chose not to pay allegiance to an organization or where they mentioned governing body then watchtower organization is a big fraud.
