MizJanet:
But the verse did not say you should not answer questions , INFACT BIBLE advise a christian to be ready to answer questions about his faith in 1peter 3:15 , isnt it ?


Lol , i know why u are runing from the question. U dont agree with proverb 8:24 cheesy

Do u agree with proverb 8:24 that said jesus was 'brought forth/created' ?
@bold, You are anti Bible, anti Christian,
that makes you among the dog's and pig's that Jesus speaks off.

Scriptures and answers from the Bible is Holy, and Christians are not to cast those pearls before dog's and swine.

Mat_7:6 Do not give that which is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet and turn again and tear you.

Philippians 4:6-7New King James Version (NKJV)

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.


DADDY JESUS IS IN CONTROL...OK?
@underline, the man Jesus is the Son of God, not the Father.
as the Word, He is God with God.

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
and the Word was with God = 2 persons.
Pro 8:30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
=2 persons.

When the Word became flesh, God is His Father.

Is that verse reffering to one kurios or more than one kurios?.
Cus i believe the verse make mention of someone talking to someone?
Or is it just one kurios talking to himself or there are two kurios involved. ?

@bolded, Now there is a perfect example of the god of this world blinding an unbeliever.

2Co_4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

johnw74:
Mat 22:44 The LORD (Kurios) said unto my Lord (Kurios), Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?

The Greek word here for both LORD (God) and Lord (Word of God) is Kurios,

Ill like to understand you better.

Do you believe in trinity?
What is ur understanding on the trinity doctrine?
Where was trinity doctrine mentioned? you are just derailing again I guess.
Don't worry I'm not getting into any discussion with you on trinity or anything else, I've seen how you go round and around in circles

In the sciptures u quoted. Why is capital letters used in one occurence and small letters used in other occurrence of the same word.?
Surely you know that much?
With Mat 22:24 "LORD" is referring to God and "Lord" is referring to the Word of God, who of course is God also as other scriptures show as well, and the word for both "LORD" and "Lord" in that verse is the same word "Kurios"

not "a god" showing jw bible to be bad translation
Christianity Etc › Re: “faith Is This: To Touch Jesus" Pope Francis by johnw74:
Mary, encouraging Jesus to fix the wine shortage problem, has nothing at all to do with praying to Mary

Mat 6:6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

Christians pray to God, who hears our prayers
Christians have a personal relationship with God
we don't ask someone to go to God for us.

Psa 34:15 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.


2Ch 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
2Ch 7:15 Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attend unto the prayer that is made in this place.

Also we go to God to ask forgiveness of our sins
we don't go to man.

'less than 10,000'

Isn't that correct for the number of the 'remnant' your religion claims remains of the 144,000?
10,000? they were saying about 40 years ago that there are only a few holey ones left alive

there teachings are full of holes
probably why there elders are called holey ones.

Christianity Etc › Re: Does Any True Picture Of Jesus Exist Today by johnw74: 2:04am On Jun 30, 2015
Most paintings of Jesus Christ have Him with European features
and long hair like a woman
His Mother Mary was Jewish so He wouldn't have looked european
and if He had long hair like a woman, Paul would not have said this:

1Co 11:14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

He looked like an ordinary Jewish man of that day.

Isa 53:1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?
Isa 53:2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
Isa 53:3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
Isa 53:4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

Don't let the world's troubles get you down,
our Saviour suffered too.

Jehovah's Witnesses and their many false prophecies

by Matt Slick

The Witnesses make many claims in their attempt to convert you to their faith. They profess to have the only true Christian church, to be the only true representatives of God, to have the only correct Biblical teaching, and to be the only true announcers of Jehovah's coming kingdom.

If they are the only true church and are the only true voice of God's Word, then what they say should prove to be true and especially in prophecy. When it comes to predicting the future, the Watchtower organization fails miserably. Following are some of the false predictions made over the years by the Watchtower organization.

If I was to call Him by His name, I would call Him YAH

I call God Father, but mostly I call Him God.

Sure, here they are

changed teachings

Key behind jwfacts.com is the concept that God does not direct doctrinal interpretation of the Watchtower Society, as proven by the ongoing changes to Watchtower doctrine.

A Witness will retort the Bible says the "Light Gets Brighter" and so changes are indication Watchtower it is directed by Jehovah. This is nothing more than justification for error.

This section helps prove that the concept of getting brighter is not valid. In many cases, Watchtower doctrine has not brightened or been enhanced but changed and then reverted back to the original position; flip-flopped. At other times, Watchtower has introduced doctrine as having come from Jehovah, only to later make a complete reversal to what was said. Following are a number of these doctrine.

I call Him God, it is also good to call Him Father
Luk_11:2 ....When ye pray, say, Our Father....

Heb 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

You see, believers don't need to prove that God exists,
because through God given faith they know He exists,
and you while being without that faith can not know.
