I don't know how some of you would view the questions I asked or I phrased them, but Grok's responses were based purely on textual analysis.

I asked questions concerning if there were lies or contradictions, from the author of the gospel of John, or God himself.

Infact if you are a Muslim, atheist, Jew and the like, you need to read this.

For those who read, it's like a short book worth reading and if you want me to ask Grok or point out errors I would gladly welcome it

Grok is not an AI trained on Biblical textual analysis. I dunno why you think its results are definitive.

Are you for Reall?
Like seriously?
What really happened?

He started preaching the universalist message and his church was absorbed into the Universalist sect.

KillahPriest:
you'll be denounced as a heretic if your message hits too close to home and I'm talking messages just like the one in the OP. TD Jakes wasn't denounced in fact, he got more prominent over the years but what do we hear today concerning him ? Association with P Diddy freak off parties and g@y sex with younger men. I'm not one to judge but doing the right things in organized or mainstream christianity is a recipe for attacks which even Jesus Christ suffered and paid the ultimate price for

It had nothing to do with this message. He became a universalist that's why he was denounced.

Funny how the same Pearson was later denounced as a heretic. LoLz.

Another outrageous behaviour from the religiously intolerant. May I never live in a society where this is the norm.

Why is NIPOST acting stupid? It is not the duty of the exporter to pay the tariffs. Other postal services are halting their parcel operations to the US but NIPOST is acting like a beaten dog.

DeepSight:
Well said.

One of the things that disgusts me the most for we lawyers is the wig and gown. It is such a ridiculous colonial outfit especially in this weather. In most court rooms, lawyers sit like Christmas goats while wearing a garb meant for European courts of centuries gone by.

It is sickening.
I intend to present a petition to the Bar Association to start the process to drop it.

I can imagine. I sweat a lot from my scalp, if I was a lawyer that wig would have become wet sponge everytime I wear it.

PlayerMeji:
God bless you!

In this hot climate, some people will now wear suits, all in the name of looking corporate...

How does wearing something that belongs to another culture make you look corporate where you can wear your native and look okay.

I dey always reason am o! Wear suit and tie enter hot office dey sweat like Christmas goat. When I get to the point of running a corporate office my own corporate wear will be our trad wear instead of suit and tie ish.

I doubt she produced evidence of her demanding his account number and him refusing. If she had the court won't have found her guilty. Abi all this wan na skit? Person no dey fit know these days.

Yankee101:
Is that thousand or million?
See where their priority lies

Very clearly. An insult to intellect.

OctavianAC:
If Christianity is not the best, then how did it overtook them all, including the ones that they spread with violence and sword?

LoLz. As if Christianity was not spread with violence and sword.

DeepSight:
LordReed: I rise.
Case closed.

And he still doesn't get it. LoLz.

Maximus692:
I'm still wondering what exactly are the rules of banning posts now on Nairaland.
Here is the post just banned.

If you have to boast about being humble then you aren't humble. LoLz.

MaxInDHouse:
Lies that you said something that i was able to quote here!

Your lies are as transparent as glass, everybody can see through it.

So he should end the discussion, right?

Exactly what i said when you cut into the discussion without being invited.

Clap for yourself!

Runaway master. LoLz.

DeepSight is still here waiting for you, don't use your usual runaway tactics.

MaxInDHouse:
I'm not interested in you because you're not the type we are sent to look for so trying to engage me in any discussion won't work.

Yet it was you who first broke your word to not quote me again. Go figure. LMAO!

BTW you are the one distracting yourself with useless lies. Bwahahahahahaha!

DeepSight:
This kind of thing is very worrisome. Is it that I am sometimes too patient? Because I dont know what level of intellect I am dealing with in which someone will say he doesnt recognize or understand sarcarsm and be asking "but you asked for it."

I tire oh.

One thing is for sure, this is not an honest interlocutor we are talking about. Lies come too easily and too obviously to him. And useless lies for that matter.

MaxInDHouse:
Who is the liar here ?
I said you asked for something and you denied it only for you to start hiding behind SARCASM.
Did you ask for it or not?
Please i don't have your time i'm busy now proving that it's only people who agreed to become Jehovah's Witnesses after studying the Bible with us are humble people!

Quote where I denied it. LoLz.

I asked you to quote it so that you can show everybody how much of a liar you are because I know you will twist the words into what it is not. Is it not clear that there was nothing about riches or wealth in the conversation but a runaway master like you will not admit rather you will pretend and runaway. Bwahahahahahahahaha!

Image123:
i was not thinking that he asked, i was thinking of how laughable it'd be for the other fellow to believe such.

Hole in one!

DeepSight:
Life is an enigma, a beauty, a torture, a mystery. I don't know how anyone can live without contemplating the meaning of life and reality. It has intrigued me since I was a child and I am late forties now!

I am understanding why you have a rich perspective on things. Nice one bro.

MaxInDHouse:
At least you can see that he was truly interested in his search for God the only thing i know for sure is that there is no humble person who studied with Jehovah's Witnesses and turn his or her back on getting baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses.
So i'm here to prove him wrong on that statement that he is humble!

Good luck with that. LoLz.

MaxInDHouse:
Sarcasm may seem like a joke to you but when it involves a serious matter nobody will believe you.

“You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name. ‭Exodus 20:7 NIV


Imagine someone in Israel jokingly use the name of their God. Do you think anyone could save such a person from being killed claiming the utterance was a SARCASM?

We were discussing a very serious matter and this guy kept claiming all the religious leaders are interested in riches and in the process of proving it's not so with the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses he said "make me GB first" and here you are claiming it was sarcasm.

Well whether it was sarcasm to you or not i have quoted his comment asking me to make him Governing Body!

Are you now convinced that Jesus Christ and his first century disciples believe in shunning whoever turns against what the group believes?

Next question should be what practical sense is in SHUNNING people whom you once loved so much?

Why do you lie so blatantly? Quote any part of that conversation that was about riches. I even reposted the conversation on here for all to see and yet you lie about what people can see with their korokoro eyes. Damn!

DeepSight:
Let us discuss.

As a teenager, I veered towards becoming a Jehovah's Witness. I was introduced to their literature by my late father. He wasnt one, but liked the literature. There is literally none of the major literature I have not read and digested, from "Mankind's Search for God" (my favorite) to "Reasoning from the Scriptures," . . . "You can Live forever in paradise on Earth." . . . "Questions Young People Ask (and how to answer them)" . . . .Too many to mention along with the regular "Awake!" and "The Watchtower" magazines.

I was at a point completely convinced of the intergrity and scriptural accuracy of the Jehovah's witnesses. Aside from the dedication to scripture and repudiation of a lot of false and pagan doctrines (Trinity, Hell Fire as well as pagan celebrations such as Easter and Christmas) they had a genuinely humble, simple and endearing style and approach. They were always welcome for Bible Study in our homes and I had already begun looking at which Kingdom Halls I would prefer to worship with.

The things that began to make me drift away were actually simple enough. Such as the blood transfuson issue. Up till today, from a scriptural (and I dare say even spiritual angle) I believe that the JW approach is coherent - as they often said, if the doctor asks you not to drink alcohol, you should not then take it intravenously. So since scipture says dont eat blood, then you should not take it intravenously either. On the spiritual side, the Bible itself says "the life is in the blood" and I also imagine that mixing blood could mix certain magnetic and spiritual vibrations personal to individuals.

Nonetheless I wondered at a point what sort of rigidity could lead the JW to prefer the death of even their children to a blood transfusion. Frankly this was my first hesitation.

Others came with time and were not limited to the views of JWs but rather to my growing questioning of the nature of reality, God and life. I became generally irreligious and began to see God as an impersonal existential force. In later life, the practice of shunning is something I came to understand and detest with JWs. I still find it very cult-like and unchristian.

So there you are. Over to you.

Damn dude! You have been journeying long man.

MaxInDHouse:
So let's just say you are through with our discussion!

Runaway master.

DeepSight:
At some point, being sarcastic with him, I said one of his things, like "Word God does not refer to God" or one other such BS.
And the clown replied - "You are getting it now."

Holy Andromeda! Maybe these guys don't understand sarcasm!

DeepSight:
That sort of reminds me of "Good does not mean good" and other fantabulous stories from our friend, Igboho.

LMFAO!

DeepSight:
Mgbo, LordReed, they say you destest humility?



Come on, he was being sarcastic.

Remember also that its not just wealth, there is power over other people.

Are you minding him? LMAO!

For reference this was what brought up the issue:

MaxInDHouse:
Whoever remains or can speak of the best performing group is a JW not people you're seeing. A member of the GB happens to be there because he believes in the best performing group and that's what is keeping over 8.7 millions together till today.
So any of us who stops believing in the best performing group is not a JW forget about whatever position such a person holds formerly!

LordReed:
So the JW GB member that left didn't believe but was elected into the GB. Maybe you guys should elect me into the GB. LMFAO!

MaxInDHouse:
He didn't believe in the best performing group otherwise he would have presented a better performing group to justify his leaving!

You don't believe in any group action so you can't even be in our midst!

LordReed:
Yet he was a member of the GB. Come and make me a GB member since nonJW can be members of your GB.

Do you see any mention of wealth or humility in this conversation string? LoLz.

DeepSight:
It is truly worrisome that it could be interpreted otherwise even with the hint of laughter you added. Worrisome. Very worrisome.

Just look at these words -



What is this for heavens sake? ? ?

The guy is a basket case. He can tell an Eskimo that snow is volcanic ash. LoLz.

MaxInDHouse:
This is what you (LordReed) typed with your own fingers on October 27/2021 at exactly 5:22pm begging me to make you a member of the Governing Body because you want prominence among faithful people thinking it's all about gathering material possessions.

So from that very moment i know you can't be among faithful people because humility is what God cherish! Zephaniah 2:2-3

Bwahahahahahahahaha! Anybody with 2 brain cells to rub together can see what that was, not this attempt at bad belle interpretation. LMAO!

DeepSight:
You mean the sarcasm missed you?
Na wah oh.

LoLz. Let him be pretending there.

Image123:
What governing body if i may ask? Does that guy work in Aso Rock?

He's JW so he's referring to the Governing Body of his organisation.

MaxInDHouse:
Walahi talahi dementia is a bad thing!
Do you want me to quote you saying i should make you Governing Body on this forum?

Are you having dementia? Sorry to hear that.

Quote where I said such a thing.

That's not a problem i just want you to know that if i ignore you it's not because i don't have intelligent response for you!

Bwahahahahahaha! It's more likely you'll start crying for me to stop quoting you like you did the last time. LoLz.
