Everything has been excellent but you're the one trashing it due to sentiment! Meanwhile go and teach your students what you know then help them in the worship of your God! ![]() sonmvayina: |
Has he agreed with OLAADEGBU on the beliefs of the Deeperlifer? Ọmọ both of them are atheists so there's no need responding to their cries! ![]() Aemmyjah: |
Ọmọ you're just an arrogant churchgoer that's all! ![]() I have used the scriptures to school you but the problem you have is not with what i've presented from God's word as proof but you're too proud to humble yourself and acknowledge that someone knows better than you. Of course i have teachers just as Jesus foretold in the Bible {Matthew 24:45} and as God's sheep these men are to continue feeding us spiritually {John 21:15-17} no faithful servant of God expect perfection from them {Galatians 2:11-14} but we know they're chosen to teach us and we must be submissive to them! Hebrews 13:7, 17 Here i have schooled you without quoting any other source but what you claim you believe (Bible) but you're just looking for excuses to turn away from the truth! John 17:17 So you can continue waiting for revelations regarding the one true religion, i have found it and will continue WORKING with members of God's organization! ![]() tctrills:

Ken4Christ:BELIEVE connotes TRUST, God said we should listen to what Jesus teaches {Matthew 17:5} because Jesus is teaching in the name of His father {John 17:6, 26 compare to Deuteronomy 18:18-19} so anyone meditating on what Jesus taught is a BELIEVER in Jesus because through such actions you're showing that Jesus is God's Son sent to redeem you. So believing in Jesus doesn't mean giving ones life to him but TRUSTING in what Jesus taught which means acting on His words! ![]() |
If you want to argue why not do so based on what is written in black and white? ![]() When God called out Abraham from among his people it was recorded that Abraham and his forefathers were worshipers of other gods not the one that called him out to leave them and move to another destination. it's confirmed that all other nations worship gods made of stones and woods not the true God. So if you're still expecting God to tell you that none outside the covenant established with the Israelites is His prophet then i wonder how you make use of your brains! ![]() tctrills: |
The Heavens God made for His spirit children (angels) but earth is where He designed for humans {Psalms 115:16} it's none of our business what goes on in the spirit realms since we already have our own place that's why God's word said: In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and desolate, and there was darkness upon the surface of the watery deep, and God’s active force was moving about over the surface of the waters! Genesis 1:1-2 Did you notice that God said nothing further about how heavens look like? Well that's because it's of no concern to readers of this book, the place God purposely created for us is EARTH! ![]() |
I based my understanding on what God said in the Bible! He promised Abraham of an everlasting covenant, Abraham had 8 sons and God picked Isaac to continue with His covenant, Isaac had 2 sons and God picked Jacob (Israel) to continue with the covenant then when God finally established His covenant with the sons of Israelites it was stamped with laws binding on the nation with whom God established His covenant. So if anyone wants to look out for prophets of this God it's only within the Israelites that we can find his prophets because that's the only nation with whom He established His covenant! Exodus 19:5 ![]() tctrills:

Straw-man's argument! You just mention one prophet of God that's not an Israelite in the Bible! ![]() tctrills: |
tctrills: tctrills:If you truthfully want to retrace then you should start from where i told you "there is no gentile given the power to perform miracles!" ![]() That should be your starting point, all these are digressions but they're also relevant to the point we're trying to establish. God never gave anyone the power to perform miracles apart from Israelites, then you shifted saying prophets were found in other nations so i told you that's not possible because God only established His covenant with the descendants of Jacob (Israel) Then you want to shift again to times before the birth of the man called "ISRAEL" and i told you that God surely acknowledged faithful people before then but after the establishment of His covenant with the nation of Israel anyone who wants to worship Him must follow all the commandments given to the Israelites which is kept in His temple in Jerusalem. Then you shifted again saying Israelites who were exiled worshiped God in exile and i told you that it was because Jerusalem and it's temple has been destroyed by then. So you can only run but you can't hide! ![]()

losak9111:If you want to talk about cultures there are many different cultures around the world. So anyone is free to follow whatever culture that suits their thinking but in Paradise it's going to be ONE Adam ONE Eve! ![]()

This is true about what we have in modern times but we're talking about what happened in ancient times when stories of virgin birth were told before the times of Jesus of Nazareth. God bless you and may you have PEACE! ![]() NaBanga: |
tctrills:Genesis 17:15-21 Stated that God's covenant for pure worship will be established through Isaac (Abraham's son) and it was later established with Jacob (Isaac's second son) so before then people who worship going by their conscience were acknowledge by God as servants of God but none was acknowledge as a PROPHET of God! ![]() |
tctrills:You're misconstrueing the whole thing! ![]() There's no form of worship that's not based on the words God spoke from JERUSALEM that was ever approved by God! Elijah was a Samaritan by birth but throughout his life he kept telling Samaritans that only in Jerusalem that God established pure worship. So if anyone wants to worship the true God back then in any other location apart from Jerusalem they must do things everything in accord with what was written in the laws of God that's kept in the temple in Jerusalem! Isaiah 2:3 ![]() |
tctrills:The idea "gentiles" was after the establishment of God's Holy nation before then Job who was from the far east {Job 1:1} was also acknowledged by God as His servant {Job 1:8} but not a prophet to perform any miracles. From the day God established his covenant with the Israelites {Exodus 19:5} He never ever chose any prophet in any other region outside Israel. I know all you want now is just to find where i was wrong in all i've been TEACHING you so that you can console yourself that there's no need learning from JWs but ọmọ that's not going to be possible for now. It's the spirit of Jehovah that's speaking this things not the man Maximus so humble yourself and learn i may not be in a right frame of mind some other time so this is the time to learn not looking for ways to argue! ![]() |
tctrills:Do you mean when God has turned His back on Jerusalem and allowed it to be burnt down with it's temple? YES! God approved the worship of His loyal ones who still believe (trust) in Him anywhere they may be! ![]() |

Ijeomalite:I don't comment on any other section except religion. So i'm doing this for the first time ever on this forum. If you have interest in God know that He will also pick interest in you, your question on the religious section is very very important but if you feel it's of no use i'll keep off. You have taken a bold step by asking that question i just feel you need to know the answer. Thanks! ![]() |
tctrills:Ọmọ no form of worship outside Israel was approved unless after the destruction of that city (Jerusalem) or after Jesus has declared that pure worship will no longer be attached to a geographical location {John 4:20-24} but before then all servants of God focus on the temple in Jerusalem. Only in Israel God's spirit works for divine intervention back then! ![]() |
Oh NO! So you think Melchizedek was a prophet? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, this is why i told you that if JWs didn't teach you there's nothing you can understand in our book (Bible) Let's check the Bible: God called the first person to become a prophet from the burning bush {Exodus 3:1-5} and after the holy nation has been assembled God told His prophet to anoint the first PRIEST for Israel {Exodus 28:41} so throughout the history of God's people PRIESTS are serving in the temple while PROPHETS only prophesy and perform miraculous works. Melchizedek was a PRIEST Sir not a PROPHET! But the fact that he served as a priest of the Most High God Abraham the father of faithful people met him and sought for blessing from the way he observed Melchizedek Abraham realized that this man is not just an ordinary man. Hebrews 7:1-3 So if you're interested in knowing about PROPHETS of the true God none as in none was called out from any other nation except Israelites! Exodus 19:5 compare to Psalms 135:4 ![]() tctrills: |

Did Jesus asked anyone to give his or her life to him? NO! It's by adhering to Jesus' teachings we can gain God's approval {Matthew 17:5} that's the truth not that Jesus is the one worshipers of God should dedicate their life to! ![]() Ken4Christ: |
losak9111:Jesus has settled the matter, so everyone is free to choose whether we are in tune with what God arranged for everlasting life or turn against what God's Son said. Thanks Sir! ![]() |
Please when i'm chatting with interested ones stop this your madness of coming to interrupt without something tangible to offer. Jesus wasn't talking about those that will live on planet earth rather he was referring to the BORN AGAIN Christians who will be transformed into spirit beings (angels) they don't have fleshy bodies so there's no gender difference among them that's why they can't marry. But as for those that will live on earth God has arranged it in the beginning for a man to be married to a woman. This is what Jesus meant when he said: Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of HEAVEN. Matthew 5:3 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the EARTH. Matthew 5:5 So there are two categories of believers who will inherit everlasting life, those going to rule with Jesus in HEAVEN as spirit beings and those who will worship God forever on planet EARTH!

tctrills:Melchizedek is the King Priest of what place? For your information Melchizedek served God in the same place before Abraham and his family arrived to settle in that place. Salem is the short term for Jerusalem! Genesis 14:18 ![]() |
tctrills:Of course prophets of false gods are found in other places but only Israelites are the ones approved by the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob! ![]() |
tctrills:They all knew that the only place God approves as center for pure worship is JERUSALEM! ![]() |
losak9111:Those people all lived by conscience and some by the laws given to the Israelites but God told the Israelites that another prophet will be sent to teach them what they must do to gain everlasting life! Deuteronomy 18:18-19 Now before Jesus most of these people died so they will be resurrected as RIGHTEOUS men because they were anticipating the coming of Christ who will teach them how to gain eternal life. So after their resurrection they will be taught what the Christ (whom they've longed to see throughout their lifetime) taught while they're dead. That's what 1,000 years reign of Christ means, they will all learn how to apply what Jesus taught when Satan and his agents are no longer around to mislead anyone! Revelations 20:1-3 After resurrected their former marriages has been dissolved by death so they will all become youths again {Job 33:25} then they can start afresh to marry one wife just as Jesus said we should revert to the standard God set in the beginning: ONE Adam=ONE Eve! ![]() |
tctrills:Daniel knew very well that God will never approve any form of worship outside Jerusalem but since Jerusalem and it's temple has been destroyed Daniel opened his window and faced Jerusalem to worship the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob who only approves worship offered in Jerusalem: But as soon as Daniel knew that the decree had been signed, he went to his house, which had the windows of his roof chamber open toward Jerusalem. And three times a day he got down on his knees and prayed and offered praise before his God, as he had regularly done prior to this. Daniel 6:10 Ọmọ i'm not interested in grieving you but just acknowledge that whatever you hear from me regarding worshiping the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob is indisputable! ![]()

tctrills:Why not just mention one approved prophet of God that is not an Israelite? ![]() |
All dead humans are in Hell now because Hell (Grave) is the end of all sinners {Psalms 9:17} and since all humans have sinned and fallen short of God's glory {Romans 3:23} anyone dead in the past are all in Hell! Ecclesiastes 9:5-10 The one and only human who died was buried and returned from Hell is Jesus of Nazareth, he is now alive and forever will he continue to be alive! Act 2:31 Whoever wants to live forever after resurrection must seize the opportunity to make Jesus his/her role model {John 3:16} that is the one and only human approved from God to teach us how we can gain everlasting life! Matthew 17:5 Though Jesus never got married so what has Jesus got to do with this case as our role model? 1Peter 2:21 Jesus referred all his listeners to the standard God set in the beginning regarding marriage {Matthew 19:4} God's standard in the beginning is ONE Adam= ONE Eve! Genesis 2:24 |
Aemmyjah: Janosky:Whenever i see people deceiving themselves i just smile, imagine people from different sects all accusing just one group for teaching what they called "HERESY" but what is HERESY? HERESY (religion) a doctrine held by a member of a religion at variance with established religious beliefs Synonyms: misbelief All these people have contradicting teachings and conflicting doctrines, even an atheist who strongly believe all these people are stupid with their beliefs also joined them accusing another religion! ![]() It reminds me of what Jesus said about his group: “You are the light of the world. A city cannot be hid when located on a mountain. People light a lamp and set it, not under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it shines on all those in the house. Likewise, let your light shine before men, so that they may see your fine works and give glory to your Father who is in the heavens. Matthew 5:14-16 But what will all these onlookers say after noticing the one and only religion uniquely different? Jesus answered: “Happy are you when people reproach you and persecute you and lyingly say every sort of wicked thing against you for my sake. Rejoice and be overjoyed, since your reward is great in the heavens, for in that way they persecuted the prophets prior to you. Matthew 5:11-12 So the best thing is just to smile! ![]()

But then, I find it funny that an intelligent man like you would depend on another to do his guessing.
