Chai.. Jehovah witnesses bad pass atheist o.. Dem dey inteprete bible upside down.. Imagine the verse jman05 quoted to defend blood transfusion which didn't even correlate with what is being discussed.. And his opinion on not singing the national anthem as Jesus clearly stated that give what belongs to ceasar to ceasar and what belongs to God to God...





Arguing with them is like trying to alert a blind, deaf and dumb man walking 10metres on a railway from an incoming train

are you thinking what i'm thinking? grin

Bound for destruction unless a miracle happens
You can use worse language on us. It won't stop us from doing what we believe in. If you feel we turn the Bible upside down, maybe it's because we could see and understand it better.

There's a big curse on anyone who adds and remove from the Bible. Jehovah's witnesses know this. But there are certain people who removed God's name from the Bible. What do you know?

JMAN05:
Thesixthsense



Jesus is the author and the finisher of our faith. The doctrine of JWs are based on the scripture.

Yes, whoever has seen Jesus has seen the Father also. Why? Cos they are in unity. In fact, Jesus is the representative of his Father, Jehovah. But he is inferior to the Father, let's go down the chapter you quoted. Read the same John 14, this time verse 28. 'The Father is greater than I am". Do you think this shows that Jesus view the Father as superior? In verse 31, Jesus stated that what he speaks is in accordance with the command given to him by God. Is this not remarkable proof?

What point do u want to make from that Romans 11?



There are places where the holy spirit is personified. This need not be taken literally just like proverb 8 about wisdom does not mean that wisdom is a person.

That Eph 4:30 calls it "holy spirit of God". Again, have you noticed that the holy spirit doesn't have a name? Gods son is Jesus, our God is Jehovah, what is the name of the holy spirit.

Thirdly, in each vision that Gods servants had had in the bible no one has ever seen the holy spirit before standing or sitting down. When Stephen saw a heavenly vision, he saw Jesus staying in Gods right hand, but where went the holy spirit?

Fourthly, the holy spirit can fall on one million persons at the same time. Now is that the description of a person? What will be its shape if these persons depart to different locations? No wonder its often had the sense of a wind!



We do get born again. However, people give " born again" a meaning different from what is outlined into the scriptures. See why born again is: John 3:1-6

A mere shouting "I accept Jesus as my personal lord and savior" is not born again.

We get baptised in the name of (ie, in the authority of) Father and of the son and of the holy spirit.



Born again is performed by God himself. It is not something you get on ur own.
Sincerely, I commend you for your patience and tactfulness at answering these questions.
The truth is, I've done this before and it didn't end well. The more you try to help some see the truth, the more many will come to confuse them again. It's like fetching water into a basket.

I'll suggest we continue with our normal house to house and one on one witnessing and beg Jehovah to bless our sincere effort.

Like Jehovah has promised, he will speed it up in his own time. And we will continue to pray to Jehovah to help them know the truth.

Why would we spend our time and energy trying to deceive people?

www.jw.org is the best place they can go to find answers to all their questions.

Well done bro.

Good.

1) With "yes" to both questions, God is "the everlasting/eternal father, being the father of all mankind and spirits and also having an everlasting/eternal nature/attribute. Succinctly!

2) There was another question, "How many everlasting fathers do we have as recorded in the scriptures" you answered "only one". Beautiful!

3) With confirmation from you that Isaiah's prophecy in Isaiah 9:6 was talking about Christ, that declared Christ, as "the everlasting/eternal father. Finitely!

Therefore, Christ is God. Unmistakably!

Why do you deny Christ his rightful deity status?
Hmmm. Of course Jesus is a god. A mighty god but he's not the Almighty God. Simple English. Compare in your Bible.

Jesus never called himself God.
What did he say when someone called him GOOD?

Bro, don't waste ur precious time arguing with Jehovah wickedness(as my pastor then in the university used to call them).They are worse than Muslims and Atheists.
Because your pastor knows nothing from the scriptures and he's afraid of admiting it.

How many times in the Bible did Jesus continually said The one who sent him is greater than him. All those times he prayed, who was he praying to? Praying to himself.

"Let us be one" Does this mean we are all equal or the same?

If you can't attend a meeting but you sent your well informed son, will they say they didn't see you at the meeting? God sent Jesus, Jesus said if you've seen me you've seen the father. Does this mean they are equal or the same?

This is the simplest knowledge in the Bible. And it hurts how people has failed to understand.

Sarassin:
I agree with you on the ultimate futility of a debate on the manner of the death of Jesus, afterall the man died. I also take your correction on the term “Stauros”. I do think there is a wider issue from a historical perspective of veracity, so I am curious as to what historical imperatives informs JW view that Jesus was impaled ?

I do agree with you somewhat that the cross is not the indisputable symbol of Christianity, it wasn’t always. Early Christian art and depictions particularly in the Flavian catacombs make it clear that the earliest symbol of Christianity was the symbol of the Fish, this symbol likely pre-dated Jesus himself, it was ditched in favour of the cross in my view because of the connotations it bore to the Babylonian Fisher-god, Ioannes.
Condemned people back then are hung on a tree or a stake. Not a cross.

No matter how it started.... The Bible said the light will shine brighter.

Romans 13:12  "The night is well along; the day has drawn near. Let us therefore throw off the works belonging to darkness and let us put on the weapons of the light."

The question is, are Jehovah's witnesses following Bible principles? We don't teach nor follow human traditions.

Logicbwoy:
You answered my questions in a typical Jehovah's witness way.

I wouldn't bother you too much, seeing that you are truly indoctrinated. You can't even see why I say that your church members are wicked. How can you look at someone dying and refuse him blood? Are you people the only christians that read the bible? Do you even know that your Jehovah's witness new translation bible is still a translation of a catholic bible?



90% of your culture is pagan. In fact, everyone in the world has pagan roots. To suggest that christmas is pagan is kind of hypocritical, considering that your Nigerian name, food, dressing comes from pagan origin.

You do realise that pagan relgions existed before Christianity?
Hmmm, no matter what he tells you, no matter how many scriptures he quotes, someone like you still won't understand. That is why we pray that Jehovah open up the world's mind eye that Satan has blinded.

If you break the law to save your life, you will be convicted a criminal. You stole food so you won't die of hunger, what are you? A thief.

God's law strictly said we should not touch blood, but because it can save life for the moment, you took it, you broke God's law. That same person will still die. He will die as someone who broke God's law.

Many of God's laws are not easy to obey but no matter how hard it is, if we truly have faith in God, we will follow those laws.

Aljazera recently did a documentary on the dangers of blood transfusion and how people are starting to claim they are Jehovah's witnesses just to get bloodfree treatments.

It's so sad, how blinded the world has become. They have become lovers of themselves and opposers of God's law.

Family › Re: My Wife Spat On My Face This Morning, What Should I Do? by Maximus85(m): 1:50am On Sep 13, 2016
nameerfhtennek:
It's more than 20minutes, I'm still unable to put words together to begin this story. I will try keep it simple and necessarily detailed so everyone will understand the true picture of what happened, why against my belief that writing personal experiences on social media is immature, I had to still write mine. Let's just say I'm not thinking right now, maybe I'm so upset but truth is, I need your advice.

I'm writing this thread seated at the back of a Hilux truck just outside our apartment. Yaa, that me in the picture. You see, today is EID and believe me I should be resting in the house since I'm not working today. Days like this only come by 6times in a whole year and more than anything, I would have loved resting than being out here.

It was yesterday evening, she called and said she her driver were headed to my office. She wanted to pick some stuffs around my office. Yaa, I forgot to say this is Saudi Arabia. If you know Saudi quite well, you will agree with me that a husband will definitely get exhausted running errands for his wife or the family. I was not in the mood for shopping but she wanted to shop. She got upset that I didn't want to accompany her shopping.

She did her shopping alone and returned few minutes before I closed from work. We headed home. Unknown to me, I forgot my internet router in my office because I was rushing to get home and continue with my FIFA 16.
Her internet service expired some days back so we were using mine.

While playing game, she walked into the seating room and demanded for my router. Mine, not hers. With her tone and facial expression demanding the router, I didn't respond because there was an indication that she was warming up for a quarrel. I wasn't just in the mood. The thing is, she is very skilled in extending her anger phases. That is one thing I can't understand till today. Believe me, it was not like this while we were dating. Sorry, I forgot to tell you I married my university girlfriend, she years my junior and the same department. Ya, I'm one of those guys that dated and planned for the future with their girls at the same time. God blessed that plan but at this point I don't understand everything that has been happening for the past one year plus since we got married. She repeatedly demanded that I handed over my router to her but I was quiet. Meanwhile, it occurred to me that I forgot the router in my office the minute she first asked about it. Truth is, I actually needed to use the internet that night for my online FIFA.

After several times of asking for the router and no response from me, she took the TV remote and switched off the TV. She walked straight to the kitchen and hid the remote. I approached her in the kitchen and told her I was not ready for any kinda quarrel. We have had enough for the past one year of getting married. I then told her I forgot the router in my office, I didn't have it. I guess she didn't believe me, she never did. She told me to leave her alone. I returned back to the seating room with my heart beating fast. I knew she wanted a serious quarrel that night. After some minutes, I returned to the kitchen and requested for the remote. Then I figured out she hid it in her pant. Pretending I was passing by, I swiftly went for the remote from under her short gown and grabbed it. She didn't expect I knew where she hid it. She followed me behind and ceased the game console, second indication she wanted me to react. I do have a problem with my temper just like every human, male or female. I have also learnt to deal with it by walking away at times I feel I was going to lose it. The same reason I'm outside at this time, 9:55 pm Saudi time. She knows I have fought hard to tame my temper issues but most times, she makes deliberate efforts to have me overreact to her nags and rants.

I watched her hide the console in her pant yet again. I shuddered in obvious fear because I knew what the woman wanted, a fight. Unable to deal with it,the intimidation and the shame, I went for the console and squeezed it out from her hand while she was trying to hold it tight. That was when the trouble then started. She wanted a buffer to help her spill everything she had nursed in her mind. "You are a violent person!! You can kill, idiot!! You were not shown love by your parents, that is why you will squeeze your wife's hand to collect the console. They allowed you to grow up in the street without parental guidance and love." Then it came....pwaaaaaaah!!! She spat on my face!!!!! God knows, I have never been spat at before, not by my parents, not by my siblings, not by anybody. " I agree I was not shown love by my parents but your Dad is a coward for running away from your mother without being there for you guys when he needed to play his roles as a father. That explains the reason you are like this", I said and walked back to the seating room.

I managed to play a few games which I lost mostly and then slept off around past 5am this morning. Around 3pm, I woke up and went to the office. Not like I had work but I needed to clear my head away from the house. If only there was alcohol in Saudi, I would have been somewhere in a hotel drinking away the shame. When I returned home by past 7pm, hungry and tired. I needed to continue my game but I could no longer find the game console and the TV remote. I asked for it and she ignored me. I managed to eat and then left the house to this truck.

You see, I love my wife more than anything, more than anyone. She is one person in the whole world I could go any length for. I love her, that was why I forgave her when she broke up with me after I left Nigeria for Saudi Arabia. She broke up with me few months after I came to Saudi and started dating another guy twice her age. She says she never expected I would come back to her after she left me but I did. I did because I saw a future with her, a future I imagined, believed in and worked towards its reality. Today we have gotten to a level where most people out there would want to be, our colleagues envy is because they believe we are privileged and blessed but what they don't know is that in the truth, I have no peace. This marriage has become my legacy and my curse.

I want to send her back to Nigeria in few days time and I hope I'm not making a mistake!!! Spitting on my face, nah nah....am so fed up!!!!
You've been doing good.
See, women are like children. Pls don't hit her but let her know she passed her boundary. As crazy as she is, treat her like you treated her when you guys were dating. Buy her things she like. She will throw them at your face but continue. Tell her you won't stop till she returned to that lady you married.

Now, to you. When a woman needs extra attention, they won't ask you. They will cause trouble. Reduce your addiction to the video game. You can't go to work all day to return and get fixed with your game.

Fake sickness. Act like you're very sick. But make sure you don't ask her for help.

For me, living with a woman is fun. I know my way around them. Look for her weak spot. Use it to the advantage of the two of you.

JAYTUNEZ:
At 41years of age her biological clock for birth might be hitting night time soon.. This thought must have made the actress cry out that she wants to have her own kids as soon as possible.

During a live Facebook chat with fans, multiple award winning actress, Rita Uchenna Nkem Dominic revealed her love for children and when she was asked if she had any yet, the Imo state star said;

“No, I don’t. But I’d love to. I love children very much. I am working on it, hopefully…Pretty, Pretty Soon”

Due to the fact that, Rita was so sure of having a baby soon, fans quizzed her on if there is already a man in her life, she revealed that she broke up with her Germany based lover, but also told fans that her relationship was her personal business and didn't talk on the topic again, she said;

"It is my personal life…actually I used to date someone in Germany…but anyway let’s leave it, leave that personal life aside for now”

I think the insect crawled inside more... is there anything I can do to sleep/remove the insect... I can't go outside rain is falling... I can only go to school clinic tomorrow... please anything to make me sleep

Get a clean cotton bud apply sheerbutter on it and gently put it in the affect ear, the insect will get stuck to it, then you gently pull out.

If you've not been cleaning your ears to frequently, the oil in your ear should render the insect inactive.

Try again and again till you draw it out. If you can't, see an ent tomorrow.
