KJV:For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.

I CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN means He's Superior to...

NOT TO DO MINE OWN WILL, BUT THE WILL OF HIM THAT SENT ME.

.... carry out a well planned project.

i.e, He's Superior to carry out a well planned project.

My understanding of the verses:
John 6:37-40

KJV:All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

Any person, any where who have sincere desire for the true God/the truth will NEVER BE WITHOUT ASSISTANCE, WILL NEVER BE
REJECTED AND HE (the true seeker) MUST BE DIRECTED TO CHRIST!

Its not about being the bread winner the society has changed where women have equal opportunities to jobs like men unlike in those days,so a woman might get a job before her spouse or husband doesn't mean the man is lazy but if you look deeply you will find some of this women are not loyal and sometimes the men of this ladies have to ignore a lot to keep sane and maintain their sanity and pride as guys e.g the fcmb woman who got bastard children from her MD in a bank,her husband would suspect but in the name of hardworking woman ignore the fact that his wife is a hardworking hoe untill she told him his kids are not his.Many of this ladies you talked about if you search beyond the surface are not saints and have done horrible things that are usually dark secrets in the name of bread winner and only sometimes stick to their partners because they can't get a dangote or someone that will accommodate them as single mothers who is richer but will steal the opportunity to leave their lesser richer spouse if the opportunity presents itself most ladies are naturally selfish and born with the spirit of eve.it doesn't mean they are not good ones in reality but its very rare,opportunity reveals the true selfish nature of a woman who rarely loves a man unconditionally.

God bless you jare!

Let all these girls try read the characteristics of a good wife and check if they are one... before they get angry that men are bashing them.

The women, as I have understood, will only respect and be submissive only to the man who meet ALL their needs.

Moreover, the needs of a woman is endless!

ngoziwrites:
Which Ngozi do you know?

I am not advertising anybody. It's just very sick that on every thread I see women are useless etc


I wanted you all to know about the Heroines and many more out there that I mentioned in my write up.

No one is focusing on this part of the story
No one talks about women that provide for the house and so many women out there that do this.

This part of the plot needs to be heard too.

Ngozi! what you don't know are more than what you know. If we examine these your examples now, you'll see 9 out of 10 are fake.
Although I'm not doubting the existence of submissive Nigerian woman, but I have not seen any.

Especially, a breadwinner, no. And I even doubt if you'll be one.

Once a woman is catering for the household, the man must be the house help if not, the marriage will end.

If I tell you stories of my experience you'll see what these men are complaining.

My finding MEN TAKE CARE OF THEIR HOUSEHOLD WITH PRIDE AND HAPPINESS BUT
WOMEN DO THAT WITH TOO MUCH COMPLAIN AND...

If some pastors condemned some kind of dresses, many people will insult them.

But we all know that these females are causing a lot of distractions.

God bless all of you who have condemned this. May He give us more grace to discourage immoral dressings.

I think Regina marries riches and wealth rather than an old man.

If that is the choice of Ned nwoko's daughter, Julia, then the father will surely respect her choice.

We want change...

The so called 6&7th books of Moses is not for the heavenly minded .

The heavenly minded should not crave for such knowledge revelation 10:4

We are not permitted to know all things:

*. Revelation 10:4 "KJV:And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, SEAL UP THOSE THINGS WHICH THE SEVEN THUNDERS UTTERED, and WRITE THEM NOT.

This is why the Christians who are going into search for more information should be careful so that

they don't cross boundaries!

I saw how you quickly dodged the whole “new heavens, new earth” matter because you aren’t knowledgeable enough to that extent so the real meaning had been hidden from you. Isaiah 6:9,10; Matthew 13:15

Please what is the criteria for judgment in Matthew 25:40? Doesn’t it highlight support for Christ’s “brothers”?
So if the sheep in Matthew 25:33 are already Christ’s “brothers”, why does Jesus still say that they give support to them?

Who is Jesus calling his “brothers”? It’s obviously not the sheep in Matthew 25:33 because he said that those ones give support to his “brothers”. This already means that there are two categories of ‘righteous’ ones. Compare Revelation 7:1-17

That will still bring us to the whole “little flock” issue. Because those whom are the new spiritual Israel are all Abraham’s “offspring” in the sense of being anointed of God’s holy spirit and Abraham’s offspring number into a total of 144,001(yes that’s right, including Jesus Christ) Genesis 3:15, Galatians 3:26-29, Revelation 14:1-5

That’s why he was calling a set of people in Matthew 25:40 his “brothers” because they all had Jehovah’s name figuratively inscribed on their foreheads. Revelation 7:1-8

In what ways do these “sheep” in Matthew 25:33 assist Christ’s brothers? Well earlier, it was prophesied at Zechariah 8:23 that there would come a time when men from the nations would firmly grip the cloak of a “Jew” i.e. the new spiritual Israel[Galatians 6:16] and would go with them into Jehovah’s holy mountain. Isaiah 2:2-4
So these “sheep” give their support to Christ’s brothers by helping them fulfill the command given at Matthew 24:14, Matthew 28:19-20, Acts 1:8.

So as Matthew 25:40 has already stated plainly, your survival depends on you identifying Christ’s brothers and giving your support to them before the time for the final judgment arrives.
2Thess. 1:7-9

achorladey:
Hope you know they won't come cheap .

No prob, provided no more Halls...

Anyway, when the selling starts in let's know please.

rottennaija:
It's very difficult to post this because of multiple bans. I therefore resorted to creating a Google document that will contain the information with their links.

This is a list of places of worship of JWs (K i n g d o m H a l l s - I'm avoiding using the keyword) being sold by the parent organisation WT. Some are really beautiful halls. But keep in mind, these are halls dedicated to Jehovah. Who in his right mind can sell something dedicated to his God?

The list is complete with links containing the price. Pictures of the halls, when it was sold of it was and those still in the market. So far, the list I prepared contains more than 100 halls but the original contains more than 800 halls.

I will be updating it as time goes on.

Why are they selling them?

To be on the safe side, repeat today and believe the gospel.

Demonic locusts: revelation 9:1-11

I myself wasn't born as one of them!
Just as Rahab acknowledged them and said "i will go with you people because i can SEE that God is with you people" {Zechariah 8:23 compared to Joshua 2:11} Their God greatly rewarded that prostitute, did you know that anytime, anywhere and anyday people talk about Jesus' genealogy Rahab's name will appear in the list? Matthew 1:5
Well that's her reward for acknowledging God's people, apart from saving herself and her family, Rahab's name (prostitute) was written in the book of Life all because she acknowledged God's people!
Thanks my friend and may God bless you!

Another thing I learn from the story of Rahab, the harlot, is that our God does not discriminate,

despite the fact that this woman is an inhabitant of the city marked for destruction.
God has respect for her FAITH, PRAYER and OBEDIENCE.

Note that she was safe/saved while in the city before she finally join the Israelites.

It is WHOEVER WILL my friend.

MaxInDHouse:
The grace is for all because while we were yet sinners God extended his hands to rescue us from sin {Romans 5:8} but the first set to benefit from his underserved kindness (Grace) is the 144,000. The rest are still counted as DEAD (spiritually speaking){Luke 9:60} until after the 1,000 years were ended! Revelations 20:5

So while the first set of resurrected ones (144,000) move directly to heaven, the remaining will face Satan's second phase of temptation and it's only after they're certified before God counts them as part of the living! Revelations 20:6

Please if you feel that you're OK with what you know just leave Maximus alone because the more you ask questions, the more you'll receive shocking revelations of TRUTH!

From the Word, grace has been since the world began - God creating man in His own image is unmerited favor.

Noah found grace in the eyes of God ( Genesis 6:v8)...

The Word says that fullness of grace/ abundance grace came through Jesus Christ...( John 1:16-17).

I'm not ok with what I know, but please tell me something out of the Word. I want to KNOWMORE!

MaxInDHouse:
You're now coming to understand what i've been saying since!
So if Noah was noticed by God as a righteous man. Note that it was God himself that declared Noah righteous in his own generation, people back then will also practice their own form of righteousness but God chose Noah!

what about his wife, sons and daughters in-law were they also righteous than everyone living back then or they RECOGNIZED the means of Salvation (righteous Noah) ?

About Rahab, sure she RECOGNIZED God's people and ready to OBEY whatever they asked her to do so as to save herself and her family!
She wasn't more righteous than other inhabitants of Jericho, and regarding her means of livelihood (prostitution) it's after she joined God's people that she will learn from them what God says about her job so she took action to be on the side of God's people before leaving prostitution!

The I AM THAT I AM does not have respect of persons.

Noah family members obeyed the same instructions as he did.( The best evangelistic results ever)

Lot's wife disobeyed the instructions and God did not consider Abraham and Lot...

If your reasons for being in the organization is because they told you that insurance cover you,
then you have been received!

*. 2 Corinthians 6 :17 "KJV:Wherefore COME OUT FROM AMONG THEM, AND BE YE SEPARATE, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I WILL RECEIVE YOU."

Are you for real or you're just deceiving yourself?

How can anyone attain the highlighted without ASSOCIATING WITH THE ORGANIZATION OF THOSE WORKING TOWARDS IT? Hebrew 10:24-25

Why deceive yourself? To be righteous and holy is what brought millions together under one umbrella so that those who don't want to comply with the standards remain outside the camp (Organization) of God! 1 Corinthians 5:9-13

".. HOW CAN ANYONE ATTAIN THE HIGHLIGHTED... "

the simple answer given in the Word is ASK AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN YOU" Matthew 7:7

Thanks my friend and may God bless you!

The following are the steps taken by Rahab which led to her deliverance:

- FAITH (Hebrews 11:6): even though she was not there when the Israelites defeated their enemies, she just believe the whole thing (Joshua 2:9-11);

- PRAYER (Matthew 7:7): she made request, she desired, she prayed... ( Joshua 2:12-13);

- OBEDIENCE ( Genesis 22:18; Jeremiah 7:23; John 14:21-24): she obeyed the conditions given to her, this made her to stop prostitution and remain separated ( Joshua 2: 17-21; 2 Corinthians 6:17)

As it was then so it is now WHOSOEVER shall take these steps shall be saved...

That is,- BELIEVE that Jesus died and resurrected for you...( Romans 9:9-10)

-PRAY for forgiveness and grace for new life...( Acts 8:22)

-OBEY the Word of God...( 1 Peter 1:22)

May God bless all who love the Word!
Amen!!

MaxInDHouse:
Just as usual! You don't have questions for me today but to ship in your unfaithfulness!

Know today that individually nobody can meet up with God's requirements for salvation now! That's why those who are chosen for heavenly hope are called by the underserved kindness or Grace of God. God selects them out of his own infinite mercy, but after the destruction of this generation of faithless people God will give us 1,000 years to meet up with his requirements, that's when each one of us must be completely pure as in holy NOT NOW!
What God is looking for in each individual today is the humbleness to acknowledge his Organization and start working out our salvation by taking instructions through that means not holiness! Those whom God declared holy are the born again Christians and he did not because they measure up to his divine required standard but by GRACE (UNDESERVED KINDNESS)

"... GOD WILL GIVE US 1,000 YEARS TO MEET UP WITH HIS REQUIREMENTS..."

Lol!!, another version of purgatory!

You are correct about grace (that is what I see in the Word - Ephesians 2:v8) the Word also says that the grace is for ALL ( not some 144,000 only)
*. Titus 2: 11 "KJV:For THE GRACE OF GOD THAT BRINGETH SALVATION HATH APPEARED TO ALL MEN,"

O Maximus, who should we believe: the watch tower or the Word?

[quote author=reubenobi post=98060472]When I say you are really funny, you thought I was joking abi. So to get salvation, someone must locate the group called Jehovah Witness? May God help your kinds![/quote

MaxInDHouse:
During the day of Noah most people outside the Ark suffered the same evil that Noah and his family suffered from the giants, it wasn't all of them that were evil and not only Noah's family that was good. The only difference is they were able to RECOGNIZE the means of salvation and they acted accordingly! Matthew 24:37-39; Luke 17:26-30
Do you think it was everyone in Sodom and Gomorrah that were evil? NO! But they didn't acknowledge Lot's righteousness so when lot was leaving he called his daughter's suitors but they turned down his divinely given order.
Do you still remember Rahab of Jericho? She was a PROSTITUTE something detestable to most people of her time, do you think people who knew her will like to come and stay with her in her house that's known for prostitution?
Well what made all these people different?
They were not holier than others but they recognized those whom God is instructing for salvation!
Listen to what Rahab said "i know JEHOVAH (your God) will do exactly as he said, but please i'm not against you people, whatever you ask me to do i will do just to save myself and my family" Joshua 2:9-13
So what did God ask from Rahab?
Recognition of God's Organization and humbly taking instructions through that means!
The same is applicable to all the others. If you're thinking some people most be holy before you believe they're God's people then you're lost.
What you should look out for is the mark God foretells about the Organization or Group he will use as the means of salvation!
Jesus is God's son, all what God is requesting from each individual globally is how to recognize Jesus and his group! Failure to recognize them means damnation, no matter how nice or good you may think you are God is not interested in your self assumption. I was still a Muslim when i realized this, that's why i began looking for that group.
Forever nice people will always be found amongst those marked for destruction. WHY?
They failed to recognize the means of salvation!
I have given more than enough signs why JW Organization is that GROUP but if you think that's not convincing enough i wish you the best!

The testimony of the All-knowing God about Noah is " ONLY YOU ( no others) HAVE I FOUND RIGHTEOUS..."
*. Genesis 5:9 "KJV:These are the generations of Noah: NOAH WAS A JUST MAN AND PERFECT in his generations, and NOAH WALKED WITH GOD."
*. Genesis 7:1 "KJV:And THE LORD SAID unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for THE E HAVE I SEEN RIGHTEOUS BEFORE ME IN THIS GENERATION."

O Maximus, shall we disagree with God and accept your narration?

As for the harlot you made mention, the main thing that saved her is OBEDIENCE TO THE INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN TO HER

Having short herself in ( one of the instructions), she is no longer practicing the act = repentance!

IT IS HOLINESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS BEFORE HIM that will do on the day of judgement!

DappaD:
After saying the highlighted, you’ll still come across Revelation 21:1 that mentions a “new heavens” and a “new earth” and you’ll be puzzled over what they truly mean because you lack the accurate knowledge.
After the 1,000-year rule of Jesus Christ, all who remain on earth will finally be earthly sons and daughters of the true God as that had always been God’s plan. Genesis 1:28

The only separation found in the Word is between sheep and goats ( Matthew 25:32-33).

All the sheep shall be in one place (the kingdom of God the Son) with Jesus...( John 14:1-5; revelation 21: 3; Matthew 25:34).

In the same way, all the goats shall be in one place ( the lake of fire) with the devil...( Matthew 25:41; revelation 20:10-15)

How watch tower wants us to accept it narration more than the Word is ludicrous.

MaxInDHouse:
Apart from Muslims who spitefully opposes the phrase "Children of God" all the religious groups on this planet are claiming Children of God even Guru Maharaj and you can also try Osun/ Ogun/ Obatala/ Sango/ Oya/ Ifa/ Osanyin and so on all these groups strongly believe they're sons and daughters of God!
And there is no difference between their attitude individually and people from all other religions (including Jehovah's Witnesses) the only thing that distinguish JWs from all other religious groups is the LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, GOODNESS, GENTLENESS, FAITH, MILDNESS and SELF-CONTROL reigning in their midst {Galatians 5:22-23} apart from that humans are humans everywhere.
Jesus promised that God's holy spirit will help his own followers to be unique not individually because nice people can be found in all religious groups as well as wicked people but within the GROUP where Holy Spirit is working the whole world will notice a striking distinction! Matthew 5:13-16

"...BECAUSE NICE PEOPLE CAN BE FOUND IN ALL RELIGIOUS GROUPS AS WELL AS WICKED PEOPLE..."
" For ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" is God's verdict on ALL ( not some)

All human beings are HIS children by creation...

2nd birth=born again becomes very necessary to be a child of God...

You have never talked about HOLINESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS which is the main emphasis God gives in the Word:

*. Luke 1:74 "KJV:That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
75
KJV:In HOLINESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS before him, all the days of our life."

other places: Hebrews 12:14; Romans 6:22; 2 Corinthians 7:1; 1 Thessalonians 4:7; and many more.

bixton:
I know. Some interpretation tend to be taken literally while some have some of spiritual insights.
We are all learning.
The most important thing is that let us not miss our ticket to heaven or paradise as the case may be. The race is not who knows it all or who is first or last but the one whom God has appointed through His Son Jesus Christ.

It's well...may the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be sufficient for those who ask for it.

See you at His feet...

DappaD:
Ohh but I thought you're of the opinion that all good people go to heaven? Where is this one coming from again? Mr KNOWMORE56 seek the accurate knowledge of the truth so that you won't be swindled by false teachings. John 8:32, Ephesians 4:14
There is no such thing as personal interpretation/opinion of the scriptures. 2Peter 1:20. The truth is only ONE. Ephesians 4:3-6
Seek the truth now so that you might be amongst the millions of men and women on earth who will enjoy the blessings listed at Revelation 21:1-5.

One of the everlasting truth is WHOEVER WILL... apart from the 1000 years no any child of God is given any rulership position. They are all brethren saved by grace.

*. Revelations 22 :17 "KJV:And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, COME. And let him that is athirst come. And WHOSOEVER WILL, LET HIM TAKE THE WATER OF LIFE FREELY."

God is not separating some of his children up and some down.

The angel said to John "I AM YOUR FELLOW SERVANT"

*. Revelation 19:10 "
KJV:And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I AM THY FELLOWSERVANT, AND OF THY BRETHREN THAT HAVE THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy."

so, what do you say is the reason for the separation?
