Zikkyy: what's important is that it's achievable. chikenna smiley
grin



non of our kingdom halls we don build wey we get to convert juju shrine first ..you hear?...land them borku to buy build on.....

zikky ya example no go even work on us....because if you had noticed the witnesses run away from paganism like you would run away from bokoharam...grin

Boomark: Zikkyy is trying to tell us that our Holy Father can manage Unholy places just to receive worship.

What i noticed about is that he stands for the truth but longer-throat will not allow him leave some things. angry

Zikkyy: This one is easy na grin get an abandoned sango shrine, put freksy inside the shrine(if he is JW), add truthislight and ijawkid (+ other JW you can find around) and just to encourage them, place a pride of lion outside. The shrine will convert to kingdom hall sharp-sharp grin even an active sango shrine can be converted to a kingdom hall with this approach smiley
grin....zikky u no well at all....lmao....but u forget say we suppose don burn all the sango priest utensils ,plus that him chair wey you sit down on top and then clear up the building,sweep all pagan related things.........



and then you forget say we no go adopt one single holiday,celebration,worship pattern of the sango priest....



and finally you forget say me,freksy and truthislight no go even near d sango shrine in the first place,talk less of converting it to a kingdom hall ....grin

Boomark: What of the one that has a mixture of 'shrinish' things and Christian things? huh
zikky till this moment cannot differentiate what is pagan or what has pagan origin and what is not pagan.....cheesy...

just ask zikky what exactly is paganism and how he can identify what is pagan you go see the way him go dribble you like messi.....grin
Christianity EtcRe: Is Easter Celebration Biblical Or is it A Pagan way of Worship? by ijawkid(m): 2:41pm On Apr 15, 2013
Zikkyy: the difference between a shrine and a christian place of worship is what goes on in them. God can be present in a shrine just as he can turn his back on what you would call a Christian place of worship. or let me say that a shrine can become a Christian place of worship just as a kingdom hall can end up becoming a shrine smiley
can zikky prove the bolded with d scriptures??....

how can a shrine become a place of worship just like a kingdom hall??...

I guess the answer is when persons like zikky who love paganism runs to the shrine ,adopts all the Sango worshipping patterns and claims he his worshipping God.....grin....
Christianity EtcRe: Facts You Should Know About Jehovah's Witnesses by ijawkid(m): 2:33pm On Apr 15, 2013
italo: You're saying you taught falsehood from satan. How then are you sure that you do not still teach "improved" falsehood from satan? Afterall, your sect would have sworn that the falsehood was true then. Same way, tomorrow, you sect can come to the conclusion that what you teach today is false, that they have found "new truth." If you can teach falsehood once, you can teach it twice...or thrice or forever.
why wont we be sure that what we know now is the truth.....when we keep making sure that what we hold on to alligns with the scriptures.....and who said we taught falsehood from Satan?...the last time I checked it was the Catholics that were and still steeped into pagan satanic practices.....

anticipating an end to this system of things is not satanic,rather the venerating of dead bodies is....

italo: You have always attempted to show it, but you have always been wrong. So should I just accept your teachings, which are from Watchtower's teachings, which have been proved to come from satan?
lol...how have you proved idolatry to be scriptural?....how have you proved the use of beads in worship as Christian?...
e be like you dey dream land....cheesy


italo: What bold change is Reyginus doing? Is he changing Catholic doctrine. Reyginus is confused. He doesnt know what he believe. He says "I believe in the Holy Catholic Church" then he says 'the Catholic Church is abominable.' How can you advise me to follow such a confused man?
hehee...grin...reyginus isnt confused...he is simply tired and fed up with the worship of a woman and the use of graven images in worship of God....




italo: Forget about this issue. Afterall, it is even unlikely that Jesus used 90percent of the 3 yrs in preaching. Did Jesus not sleep? Did he not eat. Did he not pray?

You Jehovah's Witnesses just come up with silly conclusions, dont you?
you still do not understand me and the scriptures do youhuh...

remember when Jesus once told his disciples that his Food was for him to do the work of his Father sent him to dohuh....

like I said preaching isnt part of your agenda so you wont understand....keep up with your Mary worship...cheesy

Italy: I see. It's just that one would think that an organization that claims to be God's organization would want to educate God's children and treat their ailments. But never mind. It's not just your way.
Good!!....besides we as a group and as individuals obey the scriptural injunction to pay taxes to the goverment to provide all those basic ammenities apart from the fact that individual JW's run such businesses..

Our major duty is preach,preach and preach....

italo: ...And erroneous teachings can only come from satan. No?
And when these erroneous teachings are dropped behind because of ones improved understanding how does that now link to satan??............

italo: If the teachings were from paganism, I would not seek to improve on it. I would simply abandon it. How do you improve on the devil's teaching? Oh! I forgot Jehovah's witnesses are busy trying to improve on the devil's false teachings (as you have admitted above).
But umpteen times we've showed you guys where your doctrines or practices stem from........and the good thing is that you guys know there origin as well....is it xmas,the reverencing of dead mummified human body parts,the use of beads in worship...etc....


Can you make bold changes just as reyginus is doing??..........
italo: God forbid it...that I should think your way.



Yes. And he was baptized at 30. That makes it three years of preaching out of 33 years on earth, which is 9percent.

Am I lying?
If you had known where I was coming from then thinking my way wouldn't have been a bad idea.......

When I say Jesus used 90percent of his time to preach the gospel I meant after his baptism........cheesy....

So you see why you should have reasoned my way??......
Christianity EtcRe: Facts You Should Know About Jehovah's Witnesses by ijawkid(m): 10:27am On Apr 15, 2013
italo: “Avoid Independent Thinking .. How is such independent thinking manifested? A common way is by questioning the counsel that is provided by God's visible organization.” (Watchtower Jan. 15 1983 22)

Who is lying? You or Watchtower?...or both!
Lol.......I bet you even understand what you quoted...........as long as I remain a dutiful bible student I reason from the scriptures which ofcus agrees with the basic tenets of the scriptures...............all my discussions which I coined out from my personal study is in agreement with my being a JW...

italo: Yes. Unlike you who would rather re-name false prophecies "expectant fantasies."
Lol...what changes have the RCC made from there stiff necked stance......??....

Don't u guys still obstinately bow down to marys statue even when you have no scriptural injunction for that??.........

Eh??......can't you guys make changes to allign with scriptures??...

italo: A meteorologist can make a forecast that will not come to pass because the meteorologist cannot and does not claim 100 percent certainty.

But a prophecy is 100 percent certain to come true since it is God's message. If it doesnt come true, then the person who made the prophecy lied that it was God's message.

...And that is what your sect did.
Meteorologists work with laid down principles and standards on which there speculations are hinged to.......

JW's never claimed to be prophets...that's where you've got a problem......the scriptures which is holy already contains the prophecies and all informations we need for speculations and juxtapositions...........

We are only watchful my bro as Jesus said we should...........

Just as a meteorologist is watchful about weather conditions so also the JW's are ever watchful of signs that would culminate to the end of this satan ruled world..........

Besides we never foretold the day and hour the world would end.........
Christianity EtcRe: Facts You Should Know About Jehovah's Witnesses by ijawkid(m): 10:18am On Apr 15, 2013
italo: What the devil is interested in is LIES and CONFUSION.

...And that is exactly what your sect engaged/engages in.
Lol.........we only made speculations because of our anticipation of an end to satans world...I don't see how satan can be in support of that......rather satan has lied to many that the world would not come to an end and that many should not anticipate it........

Zikkyy: with all the info i provided, you are having difficulty providing an answer huh and you were able to conclude that zikkyy worship eaostre without any form of info! why should this one be difficult for you? by the way what's the difference between a shrine, church and kingdom hall?
You provided no info bro.....your questions are useless.........asking me if the ifa priest travelled and all that is just so childish.......my problem is why would a right thinking christian go to a juju shrine insisting that that is the place he wants to worship God...first of all we have to check if that christian is alright or not.......

And you're asking me what's the difference between a juju shrine and a kingdom hall and a church??....smh!!!!!.........its like asking what was difference between the rooms the apostles and early christians gathered and the temple of zeus or artemis....zikky please check if you're really a christian or some pagan under the guise of christianity....angry....


Zikkyy: was trekking to my farm and it started raining, the sango shrine was the only available shelter. i even sat on the priest special stool (decorated with cowries and other stuff) to rest my tired legs grin while waiting for the weather to improve, am singing and praying. so what sayeth thee? will God reject my prayers?
.....

Hehehehehe..........

Since no other shelter to stay(as your love for paganism has imagined that only a juju shrine would be available in that area) then fine no wahala........

How does this your analogy support your stance on easter??...........if we follow your analogy then we shouldn't even be seeing professed christians observing easter that has now become a permanent custom....and from your analogy I can conclude that you agree that easter indeed does have its root in paganism.....grin.........

Please after you took shelter because of the falling rain(that won't kill you) did you go back to that shrine from time to time to pray to your heavenly Father as a tradition.....??.........did you go away with the juju priests chair you sat on,his cowries he uses for communicating with demons,and all his juju utensils to your house??.....and when next you want to pray in your house the chair,cowries and the juju utensils must be intact..........how about that??........

And my problem is why can't you trek inside that rain to your house just to make sure you had no dealing with a juju shrine??..........you never thought of that scriptural option..........??......smh,,,,,,!!!!!
Christianity EtcRe: The Rich Man And Lazarus by ijawkid(m): 8:35am On Apr 15, 2013
enilove: frosbel,your question as regards Gen.4:10 that "are we to suggest here that Abels blood was literally crying out to God" , shows your level of spiritual understandings.
What is the diff btw blood and a soul?
Levit 17:11 states" For the life of the flesh is in the blood:
Gen.9:4 "But the flesh with the life thereof,which is the blood thereof ,shall ye not eat."
This tells you that the life,which is the soul, is the same with the blood.You may see blood as a liquid substance,but it is really the life.That is why witches and demons drink blood.
God says it has a voice ,because it is a life,you are giving your opinion that it does not have a voice,so cannot cry.But God says ,the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground,because it is lively.

Your problem is that you assume too much.Lets see your opinion on Abraham's bosom.
You said "But how can he perish ?He is not really dead,he is already living with the Lord in Abrahams bosom,located in Heaven.
Is Abraham's bosom located in heaven? I want to tell you that the Bible says otherwise.

John 3:13"And no man hath ascended up to heaven,but he that came from heaven,even the Son of man which is in heaven." Meaning Abraham Isaac,Israel,David etc that died b4 Jesus's death on the cross were underneath the earth according to our Lord Jesus Christ.
Luke 16:23 "And in hell he lift up his eyes ( not his head) being tormented,and seeth Abraham afar off ( miles or distance) & Lazarus in his bosom ( in Abraham's abode). Verse 26 "And beside all this, btw us and you there is a great gulf fixed ( a great ocean fixed) :so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot ;neither can they pass to us ,that would come from thence". This shows clearly they were in the same place ,underneath the earth.

When Jesus died in the flesh b4 his resurrection,he went to Hades or sheol ( the abode of the dead ) & made proclamation to those who were in spiritual prison.( Greek word for proclamation is Kerusso) That is, proclaiming the truth to those in Abraham's bosom . Proclaiming to them the gospel and then led them to heaven to dwell with God. Eph 4:8-10 "Wherefor he saith,When he ascended up on high he led captivity captive ,& gave gifts unto men.(Now that he ascended;what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth( hell ) ?

Isiah 5:14 "Therefore hell hath enlarged herself ,and opened her mouth without measure :and their glory ,and their multitude......shall descend into it."
Does it make any meaning to say grave has enlarged herself?

You cannot impose your opinion.Hell is real.
But eni I thought I had explained this isaiah 5:14 and even corroborating it with other scriptural verses...........didn't you read it??...........

Abeg o eni....so you mean after Jesus preached to the spirits down at abrahams bossom(because from your answers,though not even scriptural abrahams bossom is under-neath the earth) he took those spirits to heaven??......I still can't get you.......scriptures told us that Jesus never smelt the heavens not until days after his ressurection.....can you guys please read scriptures thoroughly so that you don't contradict yourselves??........

So for all those who were good that died before abraham,which bossom are they...??....

You guys need to do away with this hell fire dogma ooooo......it contradicts the scriptures right,left,back,front and center........

And I also see you've got a problem understanding genesis 4:10-11...abels blood which is also his life wasn't literally uttering words..rather abel had died as an innocent victim and justice called out ofr his murderer to be purnished........this also explains the blood of the dead saints in that alter mentioned in the book of revelation......

Trying comparing genesis 4:10 with hebrews 12:24....
__________________________
Let's read hebrews 12:24....
New Living Translation (©2007)
You have come to Jesus, the one
who mediates the new covenant
between God and people, and to
the sprinkled blood, which speaks
of forgiveness instead of crying
out for vengeance like the blood
of Abel
.
___________________________


This is the most perfect verse that explains abels ""blood"" crying out.....

It wasn't literall,rather it was a symbolic..because as we know Jesus' blood does not speak of forgiveness literally,rather it does symbolically.....

EniLOVE...this is scriptures upon scriptures.......

Dont let the hell fire dogma obscure your view of scriptural truths.....

Let go of traditions and stick to what the bible really teaches....


Thank you.....

Christianity EtcRe: The Bible Says To Call No Man Father, So Why Do We Call Our Priests "Father"? by ijawkid(m): 4:21pm On Apr 14, 2013
Then what exactly did Jesus mean??.......

1....Talking about abraham.....it is true that he was rightly called Father..........abraham is the fore-Father of all Jews....so he is there Father......no long talks..........abraham been called Father was more from a geneological point of view........there is no way in the world the Jews could refer to abraham as there brother.......

2.....Talking about the Jewish leaders that were refered to as Fathers.......... the isrealites were a RACE.......and in that case ancestry was very important........there is no way a Jewish leader did not seir one or two of those who were like paul............

_____________________________

One good reason why Jesus made that statement was because soon God wouldn't be dealing with a race anymore but with the whole world at large.......so calling anyone Father would be baseless.........

That Is why Jesus said call no one Father,but Yahweh........

The title" Father" should not be attached to no man(in the spirituÀl context).........never ever........the same with the titles ""LEADER"".........


People can act as leaders and as spiritual mentors(or Fathers) but that should not make us arrogate the titles ""Father"" and ""Leader" to any man


We all are BROTHERS....except you guys have chosen to believe God still deals with a race and not with the world...............

true2god: Ok Frosbel, frm ur analysis so far, Jesus examples on the story (or allegory as JW falsely put it) was Jesus den lying by saying:
1. Lazarus dies and was carried to abraham's bossom (a place of comfort)
I even used the scripture to prove to you stiff necked colleagues of mine that that story was indeed a parable.....why don't you call Jesus false or the scriptures false that started all the parables of Jesus with the expression ""there was a man""...........why ona dey do like this...??angry....true2God why you dey behave like this......

Where is this place of comfort??,,,,,is abrahams bossom now a place where all righteous people go??....and please what did lazarus do that should make him deserve staying in abrahams bossom??.....
true2god: 2. The richman died and he cried (even afta his pgysical death)
Why was he crying and what did he do to deserve any purnishment that should make him cry??........


true2god: 3. That the richman begged for water afta much suffering
Lol.......meaning satan and his cohorts would be begging you(since you would be in heaven) for water to quench there taste.......

true2god: 4. That the richman asked Lazarus to be ressurected to mortal life (or physical life) so that he can warn his brothers on earth to change their evil ways so that they dnt face the same fate he is facing.
What bad did the rich man do and what good did lazarus do??...........


All the questions I've asked is questions I woldnt have asked if this story was a real story and not an allegory.........
Christianity EtcRe: The Rich Man And Lazarus by ijawkid(m): 8:36am On Apr 14, 2013
true2god: Ok lemme ask u some simple questions.

1. Do u believe that except a man is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God (John 3:16) or are u born-again?
What does being born again mean??.......
true2god: 2. Do u believe that Jesus is the savior of mankind (and not only 144,000 pple) or the mediator between man and God (and 144000 pple).
This question is quite un-clear.......but I believe Jesus was sent to save mankind,and so he is the saviour of mankind........
I don't understand your question about the 144000....



true2god: 3. Do u believe Jesus can forgive all ur sins if u repent.
Hehehehe........the Father has given him authority so why not..........

And what am I to repent from if I may ask??....

true2god: 4. Do u believe Jesus is coming back for his own pple (act 1:cool
Yes na........although he does not even know when he's coming to do that...he has to wait on His Father for the go ahead.......
true2god: 5. Were u baptized in the name of the father (God the almighty), and of the son (Jesus the lamb) and the Holy spirit (the comforter)
YES I was........

Christianity EtcRe: The Rich Man And Lazarus by ijawkid(m): 8:12am On Apr 14, 2013
true2god: My friend i understand at least 95% of JW doctrines and tricks, i knw wat im saying. I have been dealin with dem for so many yrs and on few occasions attended the kingdom hall. Its convenient for JW to condemn the apostolic faith, assembies of God church, CAC, RCCG, deeperlife (even where JW are blatantly lying) but they cant condemn the teachings of the church of the latter-day saints, eckancker, the grail messangers. The reason is that they belong to the same false xtains org, so y condemn dem.

Ok since christ teachings on hell fire is not literal (only according to JW), dnt u tink his teachings on heaven and paradise are not literal as well? Since there is not eternal punishment (according to Jw), dnt u think ther is no eternal presence of the righteaous with God? Is it that u choose is convenient for u?
You lied that we don't believe that Jesus came to save mankind.....you Lied!!!!.....why??....why spread falsehood about the witnesses.......I want you to edit what you wrote and speak the truth..........john 17:3.......

And the bolded is another LIE again.....true2God you are infact the liar and slanderer......

Let me answer your question..::::::

When Christ gave that parable he was not teaching about hell fire(abi ear muff dey ona ears??)...........

Enough accounts have shown that heaven and paradise are real...............all servants of God including abraham have been anticipating eternal life........infact it was why Jesus was sent,to open that way.......Jesus did not come to create your hell fire chamber.......

And don't say that the JW's said there would be no literal eternal torment,instead say the scriptures says so...because it is the scriptures that has told us what the lake of fire means..............

When you say eternal presence with God,what exactly do you mean??......

nlMediator: ^^

I'm surprised you couldn't lift a finger to defend the charge of sadism you've made in countless posts around here. The simple question for you is: if you believe God would do what Hitler & Co. did, can you still justify your stance against eternal torment on the basis that it contraditcts the nature of a loving God to punish people eternally? In simpler terms, is it loving of God to destroy people one time as punishment?

If you can't defend that, then you need to quit deceiving yourself that you're arguing for a loving God and using that as a cudgel to attack others for presenting God as a sadist. Neither one time destruction nor everlasting punishment shows love. [And btw, it is irrelevant whether one is worse than the other].

But you know what? God has a side that is not about love, as we human beings define it. He is also a God of Justice; a consuming fire.

Of course, if you create a false image of God, to suit whatever interest you may have (love, etc), you can't be sure you're still describing the same God. That's the same thing as rejecting Him. If I insist you're a Caucasian female and truly beleive it, do you think I'll receive you as you when you knock on my door and appear as a black man?
The hell fire showing God as a sadist is just one aspect of the falsehood of the teaching of literal eternal torment........the main reason for being against the teaching of hell fire is because the scriptures do not support it..................

Chikena!!!!!!!!...........

People would not keep burning(literally) forever.......scriptures do not teach that.......
