tctrills: You are right, Jesus Christ established his church not the JW church. Your organization was established much latter by a man like you and I so I would be a fool to join a group just for the sake of presenting a group to you. Do you understand. Well if you agree that Jesus Christ established a group and presented them as his spiritual brothers and sisters i'm OK whether you believe it's JWs or not that's not the bone of contention but the fact remains that Jesus was able to point out a visible organization of people doing his father's will. I can boldly and confidently boast that the JW ORGANIZATION is that group today!  |

You're just hanging on straws!  If someone say ”watch your back" he or she is sounding a warning so you don't enter into trouble while spewing what you can't defend! If an agent should read that comment and pick interest in it none of you will know not until your friend is fished out and interrogated. He surely will not be punished because he's just an outsider but such an agent may loose it all. And what if he only lied just to spite someone? That's why i asked him to watch his back because after all the pain to reach him the agency will not take "i beg" when scrutinizing to fish out the agent that leaked their secret! brocab: Yeah it's a threat; you don't know Courz personally: you don't even read courz's pages, Courz could have said it completely different, but you have taken it wrong.

brocab: So you are telling us: you are still following the Old Testament law: in a way: your elders have the final rights to order the parents of the misbehaved child not to associate with him anymore. Is this what you are saying? So what if the boy/girl decides to ask the parents for their forgiveness, does this make a difference? Or do they have to ask the elders, to be able to front their parents. So once you sign up with the Watchtower you come under their Covenant. What about if the boy/girl was innocent of their crime, and yet not proven to be guilty. Is it still up to the elders to decide, what if the parents were guilty does this make a difference? Go and read the Paul's letter to the Corinthians regarding a Christian sleeping with his father's wife while his father is still alive! 1Corinthians 5 When concluding Paul told the congregation to REMOVE him from their midst {1Corinthians 5:12-13} that's exactly what true Christians are doing till today!

tctrills: You point to men and I point you to the word of God. I think I should be the one boasting. You depend on a human organisation that has failed you in the past and would still fail you in the future while I point directly to God the giver of all knowledge. Jesus Christ never pointed to an organization, he pointed to his father. None of your manmade churches is superior to the word of God. Again you got it wrong, it is the presence of different organizations that have led to confusion not the absence. The highlighted! Jesus surely pointed to an ORGANIZATION of IMPERFECT humans around him as his fellow believers: And extending his hand toward his disciples, he said: “Look! My mother and my brothers" Matthew 12:49Then he concluded that this are the ORGANIZED people who are doing the will of his father! Matthew 12:50 He knew that during the endtime faithless people like you will also claim you're a believer so he made it clear that whoever is a true believer will have something to present before the whole world as evidence that he or she is worshiping the God who sent him. Peter asked him: “Look! We have left all things and followed you; what, then, will there be for us?” Matthew 19:27After promising them what is not visible Jesus added saying: "And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands for the sake of my name will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit everlasting life" Matthew 19:29So if you're quoting God's word know that anyone can also do the same claiming they're worshipers of God but then where are your imperfect human family of worshipers doing God's will that Jesus promised you? Remember if you can't present any group of people as worshipers of your God everlasting life is not sure for you because thats exactly what Jesus promised that we will see here on earth before we can be rest assured that God's blessings is upon the form of worship we choose!  |

Back then Jesus was an adopted son of a carpenter so he has no qualifications going by the Jewish theological schools for teaching people about God, that's why he often speak to them in parables {Matthew 13:10-13} but then whoever feels like sticking to Jesus in order to know more such a person has agreed through his or her actions that Jesus is a representative of their God and so qualified to teach him or her, for such ones Jesus will not only explain but even pray for him or her due to their discerning spirit!

There are laws the God of Israel commanded His people so He made them understand that the child doesn't belongs to them rather each child in Israel belongs to their God {Psalms 127:3} so instead of teaching their children what they feel is good each Israelites must inculcate in their children the laws of their God {Deuteronomy 6:6-7} that is how they had the same line of thought regarding right and wrong throughout Israel back then! So if parents reports a child to the elders they will have to look into the matter and if such a child truly goes against what their God instructed his parents to teach him {Proverbs 1:8} then the child will be stoned to death with the parents to cast their stones first! This still happens in the Christian congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses today! Whenever a mature child is found guilty of breaking the Christian code of conduct, his parents can't use whip on him because he's now an adult so his case will be brought before the elders in the Congregation after his case has been through a judicial panel and he is disfellowshiped it's his parents that must first act on the judgment by shunning him and the information will be passed globally that this person is no longer one of Jehovah's Witnesses! That's why you're seeing many complaining instead of them to go and make amendments after all this is the time of underserved kindness when Jesus has commanded us not to pelt sinners with stones!  brocab: {Deuteronomy 21:18-21} If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town. They shall say to the elders, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.” Then all the men of his town are to stone him to death. You must purge the evil from among you. All Israel will hear of it and be afraid. It's Old Testament law Max: time would have been difficult back then. |

tctrills: No excuse for pride All my arguments are based on the scriptures not personal opinion. And let's not forget that your argument is based on other people's opinions (Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses) So you have no reason to boast on another person's opinion when my views all come from God's words. My boasting is based on the fact that i can point to the ORGANIZATION of worshipers and in their midst i worship my own God {Psalms 133:1} so if you say your opinion are scriptural why not present the worshipers of your God because we all know that the worshipers of the Bible God are always ORGANIZED, ORDERLY having the same line of thought! John 17:22; 1Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:3 In the absence of an organized orderly group of worshipers each individual will have to form his or her own personal opinion which will lead to confusion! 1Corinthians 14:33 compare to Luke 11:23 So present the worshipers of your God if truly your personal opinion should be considered as scriptural!

tctrills: Nothing you said here has to do with our discussion. You claim that you hate wasteful arguments. But we both know that is not true. You dwell on wasteful arguments. If you continue to quote scriptures that don't match the topic in your arguments, is that not a wasteful argument. As I said, learn to be a little more honest and have some integrity even in your disagreements. If you want to be a teacher of truth, you need to be truthful.

MaxInDHouse: Please open your Bible to Genesis 3:15 and read with me:
And I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your offspring and her offspring. He will crush your head, and you will strike him in the heel.”
This is where all the demons (later driven out from God's presence) got the idea that the child who will destroy Satan will be born not through the lineage of Adam's sons because none of Adam's descendants can't redeem any of their kind {Psalms 49:7-9} since they're all sinners unworthy of such a task {Romans 3:23} they sensed that the only way out for innocent descendants of Adam is for a perfect human having equal wait like Adam to come and pay the ransom {1Corinthians 15:45} this means that child must be divine in nature!
To be continued... MaxInDHouse: That day God declared His judgment all angels were alert listening to what will happen to the three rebels that got their Creator annoyed so after Adam's death and nothing happened to Satan many angels followed his path as they abandoned their positions in heaven to come and enjoy sexual relations with female humans, they formed bodies for themselves using the dust of the earth since they knew that's what God used in creating bodies for humans but they can't make it live so they entered into the bodies they made and as they formed finest as in fittest structures coupled with their high intellect and abilities to make things happen easily all the females they went for fell for them! Genesis 6:1-2 This was what led to the birth of wicked giants in Noah's days as the unnatural mating can't produce normal children {Genesis 6:4} the fallen angels had supernatural powers to deal with their gigantic sons but what about normal humans who doesn't understand what was happening? Everyone began looking for ways to defend themselves as the giants were taking whatever they want by force without working, they are into all forms of immoral acts and forcing their ways all through, this led to chaos and there was no peace on earth! Genesis 6:5
You all know the rest of the story as God made water to destroy that generation saving only Noah and his family who WORKED with God to preserve the lives of all the animals.
But what happened to the fallen angels in human bodies? Since they're spirit beings possessing bodies they easily dropped off the bodies they put on and returned to their former abode (heaven) well they were shocked as God didn't allow them back into the family of His loyal sons so they were excommunicated only to start imagining what will later become of them! 1Peter 3:19-20; 2Peter 2:4; Jude 1:6
This is where the lies about the living dead came from! Normal humans die with nothing left after we die but those demons never died they only dropped their fleshy bodies they're the ones promoting the idea of soul or spirit surviving humans after death, according to God's word when we die nothing survives our bodies {Ecclesiastes 9:4-10} everything goes blank until we are called back to life! Job 14:13-15
Satan and his cohorts keep promoting the lies that something survives the human body after death but where is Adam? 
They were left idle! As powerful spirit beings that can't feel comfortable without doing anything they were employed by Satan to work with him in opposing God's sovereignty that's why they returned to the earth after the flood has subsided and stationed themselves in various locations until God scattered humans all over the earth. Anywhere humans get to a demon is already waiting to welcome them and become their god/deity they will worship and since God keeps His side of the deal that humans can rule themselves successfully without God's intervention He allowed humans to sought themselves out so the demons began indoctrinating Adams descendants with different doctrines in the name of various gods. This is the condition all humans found themselves until God called Abraham out of the most influential city of that time in other to start preparing for the birth of that promised child! Genesis 12:1-3
Abraham has heard of the story that a child will be born who will undo all the works of Satan but when will this child be born? Through whom will the child be born?
Abraham felt highly privileged when God told him that this child will come through Abraham's lineage!
To be continued...  MaxInDHouse: From Abraham down to David the promise has continued so all the demons (pagan gods) keep speculating how gods were born in one place after another so that by the time Christ is born it won't be anything special after all it has been heard in various pagan traditions!
Well by the time the real promised child was born Satan can't keep it low he quickly turned into a fake Star and led his agents to Herod the great, was it to to get baby Jesus killed before his time? Naaaaaaaaaaaaa! Satan knew that he can't kill Jesus but to make the baby start doing supernatural thing so as to alert all God's enemies but God told Joseph to take the baby away until Herod the great died.
So it was all fabricated to discredit the Christ!

If you make yourself teachable i will TEACH you but since you're arrogant you can never ever understand what God's word meant when it says "You must be perfect" Leviticus 19:2 compare to Matthew 5:48 But for the benefit of other followers i will teach if you like accept if you like reject it's your problem not mine. Perfection must come in before anyone can gain everlasting life into God's eternal blessings but as imperfect descendants of Adam we must humble ourselves and seek righteousness {Zephaniah 2:2-3} how do we go about it? First of all we must accept that all our kind gestures due to conscience doesn't meet God's standard {Isaiah 64:6} so we need to be in the congregation of those who are working towards perfection {John 17:22 compare to 1Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:3} not associating with ridiculers mocking God's word {Psalms 1:1} we must always attending meetings with those exerting themselves to improve their relationship with God there we will be encouraged and reminded of where we need to make amendments {Hebrews 10:24-25} we must also respect God's arrangement for headship in the gathering of His worshipers {Hebrews 13:7, 17} and learn to distinguish between pure worship and false religions! Matthew 16:6-12 Even if you're the WORSTEST person on this planet when you act on all the above scriptures diligently God won't see your present state anymore {Psalms 103:12-14} rather He will be looking forward to seeing what you will become when you're allowed for 1,000 years to meet up with Christ's attitudes {Luke 23:43} as you continue working hard to put away the Old Personality. Ephesians 4:22-24 That's why He said: “Come, now, and let us set matters straight between us,” says Jehovah. “Though your sins are like scarlet, They will be made as white as snow; Though they are as red as crimson cloth, They will become like wool. Isaiah 1:18tctrills: If God demands perfection before approving people's worship how come He gave holy spirit to imperfect humans like Jesus' apostles? Perhaps you think they're perfect after their baptism by holy spirit. Well they were never perfect that's why Paul later counsel Peter! Galatians 2:11-14 First I don't want to argue. If you notice, I agree with you when what you say is in line with the scriptures. I don't understand what you mean by, " If God demands perfection before approving people's worship." What do you mean by approving people's worship. Again did God demand that we become perfect? Yes Was Peter or Paul perfect at the time of their confrontation? Most likely not. That they were not perfect does not mean it is not demanded by God. "He said, be ye perfect." How else could he demand it?
Arrogance can! If you're not humble you can never see the good in your imperfect neighbor and that's what will isolate you from the congregation of the holy ones. Note that God declared those baptized in the spirit "HOLY" yet they weren't perfect.  Does God demand perfection? Again no. Would baptism make you automatically perfect? No To be perfect, you have to overcome like Jesus Christ. Hebrews 5:8-9
8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;
9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; Even Jesus Christ needed experiences to master perfection. So yes God wants us to become like him. He wants us to be perfect and without it, we can't receive his greatest blessings. |

tctrills: It's not about what I think. It's about you being an honest and upright person. It's wrong to just float any scripture without even knowing what it says. The funny thing about you is faithlessness yet you want to adjust the thinking of others!  Whenever a real Christian quotes a scripture its meant for our Bible students to meditate not faithless ones like you who doesn't even trust (believe) the Bible. For instance imagine when Jesus told his disciples "Elijah has come" {Matthew 17:10-13} do you still expect them to quote Malachi 4:5 and keep anticipating the coming of Elijah! How will unbelieving Jews view Jesus' disciples who have concluded that John the baptist is the Elijah they're expecting? So whenever i quote a scripture humbly ask for the import on what i said otherwise you can never ever get the sense of God's word. Meanwhile the time is running out find a way to make disciples for Christ if you won't enroll in the Bible study with JWs because it's not this wasteful arguments that Jesus will use to repay his faithful ones who must make active disciples!

Ken4Christ: It is true that the narration is contained in the gospel of Matthew alone but it is consistent with the scriptures. The writer of Hebrews mentioned spirit of just men made perfect in heaven. How did they get there? - Hebrews 12:23. Matthew's account is characterized by prophetic utterances so whenever you're reading such in Matthew it's about what the future holds for the dead that Jesus' death has confirmed. Because of the sacrificial death of the lamb of God (Jesus Christ) the resurrection of the dead is certain. That's what the vision is all about! in general assembly, and the congregation of the firstborn who have been enrolled in the heavens, and God the Judge of all, and the spiritual lives of righteous ones who have been made perfect. Hebrews 12:23The congregation of the firstborn has been enrolled in heaven. Jesus is the firstborn from the dead {Revelations 1:5} meaning nobody has been raised from the dead to continue living before Jesus every other resurrected person before him still died later. So the congregation of the firstborn here means those whose names has been WRITTEN in heaven just as Jesus told his faithful disciples! Luke 10:20 No spirit has gone to heaven during the time Paul wrote that letter, in fact resurrection has not started at all by then. Paul made it clear that by the time resurrection will start it's those believers who died in Christ that will rise first! 1Thessalonians 4:16-17 |

That's why it makes no sense relying on human wisdom because their knowledge is limited to what they know!  sukkot: yeah king Solomon totally got it. And they do say he is the wisest man that ever lived and yet he saw the futility in everything. and i am not against companionship with other humans what i am against is having their opinions bother you because even their opinions are futile |

Ken4Christ: You must be high on drugs. Why do you always want to impose your beliefs on others even when there are no scriptures to back them up. Show me where it says its a vision. Show me where other writers relate the same event!  |

finegirl233: Greetings For me, the bible still remains a story book for me or is there something i'm not doing it right? Of course the Bible is God's word and it exert power {Hebrews 4:12} but don't think it's the paper in which it's written or the one preaching to you that can make it work for you. NO! It's like you sitting down and listening to what an old man is saying, through his wealth of experience you can be fully competent and completely equipped to face the future with courage. 2Timothy 3:16-17 So for you to gain the power you must read and meditate {Proverbs 2:1-5} then choose your friends wisely because those who don't trust (believe) God's word can't benefits from it so it's unwise been friends of such ones! Psalms 1:1 Proverbs 13:20  |
