If you're not stupid you should know by now that people don't just wake up and train with weapons only to start going after people who are defenseless.
Jesus taught us not to accumulate things that will attract thieves {Matthew 5:19-21} so is it the common thing in my possession that someone will train himself with weapons to come and kill me for?
Why can't you just use your brain for once nah?
Is this your atheism killing your brain cells?
Ọmọ listen and listen good when you live a simple life in places where others like you live nobody will undergo training with weapons to come and hunt you because what you posses is common.
Do you get it now?

This guy! Lol 😆
Please what goods have the innocent Ukrainians that has been killed, or the 8 JWs slaughtered in your Kingdom Hall in Germany acquired that warranted them to be killed?
You see why I said going near your Kingdom Hall Meetings kills off brain cells

Janosky:
2 Corinthians 11:23
. 23 Are they servants of Christ? I know I sound like a madman, but I have served him far more! I have worked harder, been put in prison more often, been whipped times without number, and faced death again and again. 24 Five different times the Jewish leaders gave me thirty-nine lashes. 25 Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I was shipwrecked. Once I spent a whole night and a day adrift at sea. 26 I have traveled on many long journeys. I have faced danger from rivers and from robbers. I have faced danger from my own people, the Jews, as well as from the Gentiles. I have faced danger in the cities, in the deserts, and on the seas. And I have faced danger from men who claim to be believers but are not".

Oga, whom did Paul fight against for the maltreatment they gave to him?

He didn't fight anyone.
Again look at the first post on this thread. Does this your rebuttal address it? If it does, can you explain the relationship?

MaxInDHouse:
The topic of your thread says:

Questions for JWs and other pacifist organizations

How can you ask people question yet you say you're not talking about their views?

Thank God i'm not an atheist!

Because your views have nothing to do with the questions. Someone is asking you A, you're discussing Z. So stick to the topic

MaxInDHouse:
Use your brain nah!

Protecting me from who?

My own brothers and sisters in Christ will not raise weapons against anyone so if anyone say he wants to protect then such one is doing it to fight his own brothers and sisters who want to attack others.
So if you're a soldier it simply means you're fighting your kind who still believe in carrying weapons not my own kind.

Do you get it now?

Protecting you from enemies who will perceive you a weakling cos you won't carry arms to defend yourself.
Is this lil piece of fact too complex for your Watchtower-addled trash can you call a brain?

MaxInDHouse:
Then what brought JWs into the topic?

Hope you're still with your senses?

Please reread the first post on this thread. This time with your brain switched on

MaxInDHouse:
This is what makes you people really really stupid because i will never ever fight in support of one man to kill another man.

Do you now see how low your IQ?

Derailer, I'm not asking you to fight and kill another man. I'm asking you to concede that you owe non JW a vote of thanks for protecting you.
As much as you lot don't wanna face the reality, the truth is everyone cant be peaceful. In driving they teach defensive driving because they know everyone can't be sane and careful. Thus they tell you assume everyone is crazy and drive defensively.
There must always be bloodthirsty folks, no matter how you teach people. Even in your midst of 'god's people', there are child mol@sters, gays etc. Thus not all of you guys have 'Yahweh character' or godly. Las las you cant control everyone. This is a fact y'all JW refuse to put into your thick stupid skulls. As much as you and I want peace, you won't always get it. Its human behavior to try and dominate the others

MaxInDHouse:
Whatever makes people from different races agree to be peaceful and many like you chose to be killers then peaceful people should be separated from killers.

Ọmọ that's what God is coming to do! Revelations 11:18

Another fallacy. Please stick to the topic. We are not talking about JW views

MaxInDHouse:
FOOL!

If the world is filled with Jehovah's Witnesses there will be no more weapons or wars!

That's what you should think stupid atheist!

Lol. Is that the question I asked?
Please eat properly, drink water and reread my question. Thank you

MaxInDHouse:
In fact you people are the problem of the world because if everyone is a JW billions of dollars spent on weapons will be used for the benefit of all.
Not when one man is purchasing weapons worth billions of dollars while there are some of his people begging for food in the streets!

Please stop doing trees.
Unfortunately its not possible for everyone in this world to be a JW. So please reply my question. All this dodging antics you and EnemyJah, and now Janosthief employ won't work

MaxInDHouse:
When agreement are broken it's just the pride of one single person that will lead to the death of hundreds of thousands called "WAR"
So if one man disagree with another why can't the rest settle it for them amicably?

One Man can cause a war. It doesn't need to be 2. Adolf Hitler instigated WW2.
Please use your brain while talking with me

Janosky:
All this MUMU anger & hatred for JWs, for what purpose?

Cos you guys are child mol@sters

Aemmyjah:
They can never grasp anything ever
Thankfully, the precious things of the nations are streaming into Jehovah's mountains by their thousands
Many have accepted, even begging the beautiful feet of those Sharing the good news into their house... Before the pandemic, parents will tell their children to hide when we approach. Now they push them to study the Bible and attend our meetings... Yet

The wisdom of the world is actually foolishness
Despite the advancements in the education systems - Bsc, Hnd, PhD... Sociocultural values, traditional values, politics... The world offers no lasting hope and security... People are getting worse and greedy
Unless mankind accepts Jehovah as sovereign ruler, things will always get worse

I remember when I teach people about the last days and I mentioned pestilence. They say the last one was Spanish flu, they ignore epidemics like malaria, HIV, etc. When covid-19 came, they say earthquakes has never occurred in Africa. Jesus never actually said earthquakes will occur in all the nations but 'in one place after another'
Earthquake occurred a few days in Morrocco, very sad event... If these ones all wait to personally witness all these bad things Jesus said, they will realize it just before they die
Even religious persons are atheists too. You'll approach someone who just returned from church on Sunday and he says he does not believe in God. Wetin e de find for church
We Witnesses still have much work to do in this harvest

At the bolded. Lol. Lies lies lies.
It is common knowledge that your Kingdom halls are getting redundant and less and less people are becoming JWs. In fact your 8 bald GBs are selling off Kingdom Halls due to low patronage. So who's attending your denoms?

My evidence….
https://www.baruq.uk/why_so_many_kingdom_halls_for_sale.html

Evidently, because meeting attendance is on the wane and growing numbers of JW’s are simply abandoning their faith altogether, apparently the leadership of the organisation do not expect the trend to reverse itself in the future, and consequently, they are simply shutting down congregations with dwindling numbers and putting the facilities up for sale. The many faithful wit

Oya oga liar, show your evidence of increased attendance

Aemmyjah:
Is it not even funny?
They persecute and hate and ban those who obey Jesus words to love one another.
They go to war to fight... After seeing the impact of the war, some blind Christians will go to beg God for forgiveness and others will grieve
Stupid atheists, believing they are accountable to no one and since they are lost say, there is no God - if God exists, he won't allow the war to happen. When they see those that did not partake in the wars, they won't stop persecuting them cos they did not jkin their bloodshed... It is funny that mankind seeks an end to wars and world peace but crave for world dominance and most nations budget is not even even on food or education or health but on security by acquiring sophisticated weaponry- atheistic ideology of survival of the fittest. When the fittest dominate, they blame God
Demented group of people- no wisdom, no sense of purpose, no hope. Just living for the moment like animals

Ogbeni stop derailing the thread and answer my question

Aemmyjah:
Thank God I'm not an atheist either and I'll rather pray to die premature than be an atheist or apostate or any other kind

Tomorrow, they will be shouting humanity first , awon survival of the fittest. Very foolish group of people.

I have personally heard and read from both military and government officials that if everyone is like JWs, we will all feel safe and there would be no need for the use of weapons. Jehovah God deserves the credit, he knows the key to true unity and peace and his spirit guides us. It is not something you'll hear about other group, not even atheist who claim to have sense when they are foolish. Instead they will be pointing to Japan and other countries cos of national development as if Japan is even an atheistic country.

Which government officials said this?….
Lol
LIAR LIAR, PANTS ON FIRE

MaxInDHouse:
He is really disturbed that some religionists can be smarter in reasoning then atheists.

Just imagine after all his agitation he now said countries have agreement on boarders.

Is that not the same thing Jehovah's Witnesses have been saying all these while?

"Let's reason together and live peacefully with one another"

But atheists thinks everyone must hold weapons before there could be orderliness.

Thank God i'm not an atheist!

Its not possible for everyone in this world to be peaceful. And to maintain peace, you need to be strong, unfortunately.
So please answer the question.

Aemmyjah:
Stupid
The world's most renowned court which is the ECHR agrees that the ban is an injustice. Mind you that it's not only the JWs that are under ban but some other groups as well
We are not surprised tho when a political figure, in his madness for World dominance would ban people teaching others to turn their swords into plows hares as slaves of Christ would not fight
Catholics kill Catholics at the Russian War, protestant kill protestant, stupid demented atheists who shout 'humanity first' kill one another in the name of national interest... Only one group is known not to join in such conflict or controversy
Tomorrow, mumu will come out to blame God for the war

Whether the ECHR says the ban is just or not is irrelevant. Besides the views of ECHR or UN are irrelevant now that Ukrainians and Russians are killing each other.
Please answer the question.
Lemme summarise.
Don't you think JW would be annihilated if they make up the bulk of a country?
Yes or no. And this time, use your lil brain. Thank you

Aemmyjah:
With your stupid assumptions that comes from your head?
Even a fool knows that JWs have nothing to do with the governance or political affairs of a nation
Stupid imagination

Even a raving mad man knows what an assumption means. If a country is made up of 99% JW, what is the odds that the governance would be a non JW?
Use the remainder of your brain to argue with me.

MaxInDHouse:
So now that you've heard of the highlighted is that enough reason to own your personal gun so as to DEFEND yourself?

The debate isn't about firearms ownership. Its about you saying people don't just attack others. So don't deflect.
Armed robbers attack you. Same as law enforcements.
As a country made up of JWs don't you think u need to thank non JWs for saving your ignorant black ass from annihilation?

MaxInDHouse:
The highlighted is what i've been telling you all these while!

So it's based on AGREEMENT that people live in peace not due to possession of weapons or training for war.
Thank you!

And youve not seen where countries break agreements? I dont know if you are naive or just plain stupid

SIRTee15:
Show me where a bible author said he was writing from God verbatim.
So where Paul said this are his own words and not the Lord....is that word of God too?
Go and learn about word of God, rhema and logos.
Then u can come back here to discuss what is the scripture.

Obviously you haven't taken time to read your Bible. But that is all common theme amongst theists. They rant and rave about their books but haven’t taken out time to read them.
So I'll indulge you one more time. So here goes….

SIRTee15:
Focus on the resurrection story pls. This is what my post to u is about.
Not some conspiracy junks about early church history that's completely unfounded and lack any form of verifiable evidence- be it emperical or factual.

I don't have a problem debating early church history with u. In fact we will start with the first century AD where it all began.
I will bury u just like I did to your other wannabe atheist colleagues and some confused black jews. Checked my previous posts to see their grave yards.

But for now, pont out the contradictions in my explanation or the bible ressurection story.

Lol. This nigga. Obviously you haven't read this Bible cos if you did, you'd know its filled with bullshit.
One of the regular defenses chrissies put up when you confront them with the buybull is they say 'if you read the bible to look for errors, you'll find errors' and I'm like 'so you knew there were some mind-boggling cock-ups in that buybull but you still decide to base your whole life and still argue on it? '

SIRTee15:
I already defined to u what exactly is the word of God.
So I don't understand your point above.

THE WORD OF GOD IS THE MESSAGE not the letter.
U should learn the classification of exegesis in the bible. Words are men in the bible are not expressive and not inspired.

The biblical writer never thought or said they were writing God’s words verbatim . Instead, they were writing what they knew, what they heard, what they experienced about God.

The hard copy bible is a collection of words about God, not a collection of God’s words to us.

The message in the hard copy bible is the word of God and this is what is inspired by the holy spirit. That is what should not be added or removed.

Wtf is this nigga on?!
The Bible is littered with verses where its literally clearly written "….. and thus sayeth the Lord… "
And many of those verses were instructions and punishments meted by the all so loving god.

Besides your bible also said in 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (New International Version)
16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God[a] may be thoroughly equipped for every good work
Its clearly written there 'All' not some, or few but all
See dude, I suggest you actually sit down and read this your Bible once
Shalom

DaddyCoool:
See below

Yeah. Thats Koro. Said so earlier

Timoleon:
just imagine even on this thread how many of them swear it’s true. Yet, not a single proof.

Thats Nigerians for you. Low IQ

preciousee17:
Yes, I still stand on what I've said.
The only thing now is that you are bringing an interpretation for the word Temptation in the book of James, and I'm saying your interpretation is wrong.
I'm saying that temptations do not mean suffering, they are two different words.

Its not interpretations. Its what is written in your buybull

preciousee17:
You know, there's something that someone said, I completed it.

If God actually exists, exactly as the Bible depicts.
Atheists can never make a valid argument without:
• Blaming God for the actions of man.
• Complaining to God for creating them.
• Trying to teach God how to behave, forgetting that God is more than a thousand times smarter and more complex than you are.

I always thought of this, every religion has a good and bad. God and the devil.
Every religion has Truth that they follow, and lies that their devil wants them to follow.

Atheists just assume that there's good and bad, (morally).
And they believe in science as their truth, but they fail to dig up the lies in science.
As atheists, you all should be the ones who dig the deepest into conspiracy theories, especially as it relates to science.

Go and dig up conspiracies for sometime. Your fellow atheists will prove to you that cancer and a whole bundle of famous serious diseases were never a mistake — all deliberate actions of man.

I believe my response to the other calm guy has any answer you need.
Keep on blaming God for actions of men.

Really? Cancers are caused by man?
Ever heard of teratomas, autoimmune diseases or idiopathic diseases?
What about congenital diseases like anencephaly( baby born with no head) or Tetralogy of Falot(what you guys call hole in the heart) are they man made too?
Lol. I know that theists especially christians lack thinking but I didn’t know they'll be this daft.

MaxInDHouse:
Guy this is not the stupidity you people call "ATHEISM"

Normal people with their thinking caps come together to reason and figure out the way they can cohabit peacefully then discovered that the understanding of few men surpasses what all others have so each of them now numbering millions resolved to go by the understanding of this few men doesn't translate to taking orders rather it's called AGREEMENT:

“This is what Jehovah of armies says, ‘In those days ten men out of all the languages of the nations will take hold, yes, they will take firm hold of the robe of a Jew, saying: “We want to go with you, for we have heard that God is with you people.”’” Zechariah 8:23

So if you now conclude that such a decision means taking orders that's shows the level of your IQ!

Oh really? Maybe you have forgotten(or don't know) the definition of taking orders because you didn't do kindergarten.
Lemme give you an example. If those misogynistic and racist men decide that today, no JW would attend hospitals, would you comply? Yes or no. Please I don't need too much grammar

SIRTee15:
It's the message that's inspired not the book.
In christianity, there's a difference btw the book and the message. This is key.

No one ever said God dictated verbatim to the scribes or prophets.
The prophets filled with the holy spirit received the message. The prophets then write down what they receive within the limitation of human knowledge and capacity.


The holy spirit preserves the message not the book.

He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
2 Corinthians 3.6

The word of God has no contradictions. If u looking contradictions on the letters, well they were written by imperfect men like yourself.
And that should tell u something about God.

In other words, you want to contradict what the bible said. Remember the bible said its the complete word of god. No one is to add or subtract or second guess it. If you do, ita death. Try and read this your Bible at least

1 KINGS 4:26—HOW CAN THIS VERSE SAY SOLOMON HAD 40,000 STALLS WHEN 2 CHRONICLES 9:25 SAYS HE HAD ONLY 4,000 STALLS?
PROBLEM: In recording the prosperity of Solomon, this passage states that he had 40,000 stalls of horses for his chariots. However, 1 Chronicles 9:25 affirms that Solomon had only 4,000 stalls for horses. Which one is right?

SOLUTION: This is undoubtedly a copyist error. The ratio of 4,000 horses to 1,400 chariots, as found in the 2 Chronicles passage, is much more reasonable than a ratio of 40,000 to 1,400 found in the 1 Kings text. In the Hebrew language, the visual difference between the two numbers is very slight. The consonants for the number 40 are rbym,? while the consonants for the number 4 are rbh (the vowels were not written in the text). The manuscripts from which the scribe worked may have been smudged or damaged and have given the appearance of being forty thousand rather than four thousand. - https://defendinginerrancy.com/bible-solutions/1_Kings_4.26.php

So was the Bible divinely inspired?

MaxInDHouse:
NO!
That's the stupidity in atheism that you need to purge out of your system.
Someone agreeing to live by the same standard with his neighbour is not receiving orders but contributing to the peace and love agreed upon by all those involved!

The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses is a male only group of leaders. Their names are, from left to right, front to back: Gerrit Lösch, Samuel Herd, David Splane, Mark Sanderson, Stephen Lett, Geoffrey Jackson, Anthony Morris, and Kenneth Cook.
The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses is the ruling council of Jehovah's Witnesses, based in the denomination's Warwick, New York, headquarters. The body formulates doctrines , oversees the production of written material for publications and conventions, and administers the denomination's worldwide operations.

So in other words, they form the doctrines you use everyday. Illiterate, that's called taking orders. Fooool!

preciousee17:
Keep on ranting...

I'm not ranting. I'm echoing what you said. Lol
