In this raging economy, trying out new things can be fun incase you don't have enough to fill your belly.

Below is a nice delicacy which is a good source of protein, calcium, potassium and sodium. Also, its know to have a low anti-nutrient content, which means they have less side effects than other meats.

Nigeria is a diverse country with a people with no different mentalities. Most of them don't care and that's where the problem lies. You could decide to start a movement that's for the greater good of most Nigerians and you'd still have alot of people who would be against it. And these people are no not necessarily the politicians or tge elites. They're the same masses who are affected by the everyday problems the country is plagued with

burp18:
Who will make these laws?

mrvitalis:

Name one corruption free Cumunist nation/ country that has ever existed the history of mankind

burp18:
It just can not work. It can never work because the ones who are supposed to pass out these decrees and make the laws are the same people benefiting from it. The same system thrives on corruption.

burp18:
The same authorities will in the turn allocate these assets to their children . Our politicians will always find a way around it. What Nigeria needs is a brutal military dictator to lord over it. We are in a lawless country where people steal and still use the proceeds of the same stolen funds to bail themselves

That's commendable. The religion is too controlling. In the name of unity, they want to regulate even how you make love with your wife. The issue of beard generated controversy for years in the west, but all the opposers of this now changed doctrine were discriminated, viewed as disorderly, and were never given church work. Just beard. Religious leaders are really going too far. In some cases, they approved beard in one location, and disallowed it in another.

All these while the GB was wrong.

They seem to have poor bible scholars over there or that the bible scholars are doing great work, but the leadership doesn't often listen to their advise. Because this issue is no-brainer if you ask me.

However, I don't think they disfellowship for this. But they just don't see you as a JW in most areas eg , Nigeria. You can't occupy any office in most JW congregation. In some areas, if you claim you're a witness, they will first check if you have a beard. If you do, they just conclude you're not. Cos you have mark of the beast.lol

But we need to commend them for such change. Atleast they changed.

Well there are cases of disfellowship of brothers wearing beards. Assuming you're approached by elders and you act irresponsibly to the extent of questioning the governing body's policy on beards.. Your case will turn to a disfellowship case... How you react to the judiciary panel will determines the verdict

Eyinju112:

As far as I'm concerned, this new development isn't a stumbling block for we Jehovah's witnesses. Anyone who left the organization because of beards was never ready to become a Jehovah's witnesses.

Also, I'm not surprised we Jehovah's witnesses are decreasing, the world is full of immortality and anyone who loves immorality can never be a Jehovah's witnesses. We're content with whatever we have, we put Jehovah first before riches but then many people want to get rich at all cost. There are lot of things that we Jehovah's witnesses don't condone and we won't condone anyone who choose that part. So therefore we must surely decrease in numbers. I'm glad we're decreasing as it builds my confidence that I'm truly in the true organization that worship God. Read mattew 7 vs 14. "Small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it". Bearing this in mind builds my faith in Jehovah and his organization.

MaxInDHouse:


Please quote a verse where God approved of war when the two opposing sides are worshipers of God.
Now imagine two opposing sides going to war on whose side will the true God be?
For instance in Russia supposed men of God were praying for victory and the same goes on in Ukraine, my question: on who's side is God?

Taigaban:
Quite unfortunate that people with half information will struggle to twist the truth to suit their hate for the JW's. Who told you people that JW's don't wear beards? JW's are sensitive to the environment/territory they find themselves, In some parts of the world JW's wear beards depending on what type of grooming that is considered to be modest in such territory. I don't think JW's want to be a stumbling block to any one who may wish to listen to the Bible's message. I see hate in several write-ups here.

Aemmyjah:


I should be ashamed?
This is something others are envious of

Aemmyjah:


Keep warring and spilling blood
Is that what brings satisfaction and real peace?
True Christians do not fight aa Jesus taught
We are practicing Christianity as Jesus taught
Not Judaism
Those that go to war today kill brothers of their own religion ij the other land
It never happened in the ancient Israel

Aemmyjah:
Jehovah's Witnesses are actively preaching in almost every country
The only group that has never participated in wars or conflicts
The only group so loyal to the christ and they are neutral
Their magazines which is free is the most distributed and translated
Their website, jw.org is the most visited religious website and has the most translations, Google does not come close


Yet, someone is stumbling cos of what? Wearing beard
I reserve my comments

Sillymoderators:

Who told you they were demonized and dis fellowshiped? You people will come here spreading fake news about Jehovah's witnesses because of hate.

MaxInDHouse:


It's due to Western culture!
Most of our brothers look up to the appearance of brothers living in our bethel homes and members of the Governing Body that they don't wear beards, this is because for some decades wearing beards has been view as indecent in the Western culture while the East takes it as a crime for men to shave their beards.
Brothers in the Eastern world like Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq and other Arab countries finds it difficult to walk freely in their communities so letters keep rolling in on this matter that's why the Governing Body have to address it.
Now Kalid in Iran can walk freely in his area without being ostracized as an infidel while i and other JWs throughout the world still view him as a responsible brother in our spiritual family.

May you have PEACE!

Passionnn:
Stop broadcasting falsehood.
I know a number of witnesses, even elders who give talks at assemblies who grow beards, even goatees. Stop the hate broadcast
