Aemmyjah:
Pray about the forthcoming elections?
Like what exactly do we pray for or pray about?
They have come again with their manifesto, their hypocritical display, we all know the evils they do to attain to become what they want to be
Their desire is lure for power and greed and you say we should pray?
This generation is indeed a foolish one, lemme give you something

In 1960, Nigerians were so happy that the end of the racist, abusive colonial rule had ended and they now had power to rule themselves. It seems that God answered prayer.The new era was plagued with conflict and wickedness and coup from the military rule.
In 1999, Nigerians had a new leader, a democratic one, it seems this kind of government was an answer to prayer from God, later we had another party entirely and now ... The end result is more corruption, division, insecurity, greed, poverty, economic breakdown, police brutality, unemployment, name it. These are problems we're causing ourselves and we expect worse from these evil leaders yet you say we should pray?

Jesus Christ told us what to pray about. He said we should pray for God's kingdom cos by means of that kingdom (or government), it will cause God's good will to be done here on earth (not just a nation) as conditions are in heaven. Why then should we pray for inferior, ephemeral governments in the name of patriotism? Patriotism is what is making Russia and Ukraine kill each other even though they are alike in language, close neighbours and brothers and the common denomination is the Orthodox Church.

My brother, if I saw I want to vote for anyone, I'm in effect telling my God and my King, Jesus to keep their kingdom cos I have hope in this man or woman and that will be disloyal

Jehovah himself said, 'Cursed is the man put his hope on fellow man'. If my mum should curse me 'I'll say God forbid' but who will forbid whom Jehovah has cursed? I'm patiently preaching and teaching God's kingdom and it's blessings. Until then, let people keep deceiving themselves into thinking that political system can solve problems created by moral issues.

Goodnight bro and in my beloved brother's voice (Maxindhouse) 'May you have peace'

How can your father explain it when he was just a pretense among jw, you said on this thread that him and your mother told you and your siblings to lie . How can a true Christian be teaching his children how to be a liar, like father like son shallow people.

sonmvayina:
What does it say?

Nawa4nl:
Of course you dont worship the same God as I do, your god is a satanic god.
That's why you cant back forbidding blood transfusion with the bible
Your god is the god of doctrines of men
Your jehovah witness god it denies that David killed Goliath in 2 Sam 21:19
Your god is satan

sonmvayina:
Speaklove what does God need a son for?

Templee333:
MATTHEW 10:28
The verse above can give a JW tough time. I remember when i asked my father to explain it & he couldn't say anything meaningful. In one of their "kingdom songs", there's this line: "fear them not who kill the body but cannot destroy the soul", yet they tell you that man has no soul, that no soul survives the body after death and so on. That's confusion!

Nawa4nl:
Jehovah Witness church condemns blood transfusion, thus stopping its members from getting treatment.

When Jesus said clearly nothing entering you defiles you.

Mark 7:18 
And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him;



Why does your church make it doctrine not to take blood transfusion, thats teaching doctrines of men as the word of God.
Thats heresy

Matthew 15:9
But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.


Blood transfusion has saved more than it has killed, it not biblical doctrine to reject.
So where did Jehovah witnesses get the doctrine from?



My God never condemned Blood transfusion.
The God of the bible used Adam's rib to make Eve, thus Adams blood was transfused to Eve.

Your own god & the god of Jehovah Witnesses rejects blood transfusion,
hence its not the God of the bible.

Which is not surprising,the founder of Jehovah Witnesses was a Freemason.

Freemasonry is satan worship, that explains why Jehovah Witnesses go against God.

Seriously? You don't know about the multitudes of people who practice and promote His teachings without thinking that He was perfect? You don't know about the multitudes of people who practice and promote the teachings of Buddha and Confucius, without thinking that they were perfect?

Wow! Maximus denying Pastor Russell
Well what if I start posting the hullabaloos of Beth-Sarim Agbero Rutherford, this place no go contain us

SeniorMan715:
Without jw teaching if a reasonable person read the history of how constantine adopted the use of cross as Christian symbol they will see that it's not godly it was from paganism, cross wasn't even used to crucifix Jesus stauros means upright stake from Greek translation, what keep bothering me is how someone will see facts and evidence about their false belief and refuse to amend and correct it.

ReubenSandwich:
I don’t think that people need to believe that Jesus is perfect, or to have any other beliefs about Him, to learn to live peacefully together. As long as they are willing to use His teachings to help them learn to live a better life, there will be progress.

SeniorMan715:
Cross was adopted fully in the time of Constantine it was publicly used as the symbol of the Christian religion. Before we accept any practice, we should always inquire into its origins. We must assure ourselves that it does not transgress any of God's laws and that it follows the traditions and practices of the early Christians. A lot of evidence have proves that the cross is not a Christian symbol but has its roots rank paganism.
The word cross appears 28 times in the new testament, and in all cases, it is translated from the Greek word stauros. The original meaning of the word was not a cross but an upright stake.

LordReed:
Story. LoLz

LordReed:
That doesn't concern me. All I want is for your god if he really exists to reveal my full home address to him.

ReubenSandwich:
Agreed. That’s how it looks to me.
Maybe sometimes people wouldn’t agree to follow Jesus without believing in the existence of a God, or at least they think they wouldn’t, but not always. People can think that everything that Jesus says is metaphorical. That actually even makes Him look better to people sometimes.

ANTIlSLAM:
The last time I sent a link to you to expose your stupidity you said it wasn't written in the Bible, is your stake written in the Bible too OPONU ODE?
See as everyone is against your nonsense, Sister Sharon and Senior man, I dey feel you jare

ReubenSandwich:
No matter how many people agree on what's right and wrong, with or without believing in the existence of a God, that doesn't mean it will help solve any social problems. I see multitudes of people agreeing about what's right and wrong, with or without believing in the existence of a God, doing things that look to me like adding to the problems and helping to perpetuate them and make them worse. What matters to me is not for people to agree about what's right and wrong. What matters to me is for people to be learning and practicing ways of living that will actually help solve the problems, without adding to them and helping to perpetuate them and make them worse. I think that there are multitudes of people all around the world who are already doing that, and that anyone who wants to can help it happen and be part of it, no matter if they believe in the existence of a God or not.

ReubenSandwich:
I think that part of what's needed for people to learn to live together peacefully is learning to live the way Jesus in the Bible gospels says to live.

cornelboy:
No human is perfect.
JW.org is the only group evidently doing God's will today.
They are the real representation of God's kingdom on earth. They are the real Christians.

Hismasterpiece:
If by my own Jesus you mean the one who died on the Cross and rose again the third day, then yes you will go to heaven.

Jerryhare:
So stake is what you have in your own Bible right? Indeed your religion is occultist and satanic

SharonLoveth:
You shouldn't run away for my question. Even Wikipedia you believe in never supports your stake as the meaning of crux

SeniorMan715:
Is boldly written (Latin Cross)

SharonLoveth:
This is Mark 8:34 from Greek Bible which has nothing to do with CRUX
This is Crux from Encyclopedia Britannica
Crux, (Latin: Cross) , also called the Southern Cross, constellation lying in the southern sky at about 12 hours 30 minutes right ascension and 60° south declination and visible only from south of about latitude 30° N (i.e., the latitude of North Africa and Florida).
https://www.britannica.com/place/Crux
Big shame on you! Crux is NOT Greek word but Latin word

SharonLoveth:
What is the Latin word for stake if the meaning is difficult for you to answer?

Sorry what is STAKE then?

ANTIlSLAM:
Let me reason you small, I pray you answer dis question
How did your occultist religion, JWs discovered that Jesus Christ was executed on a simple upright stake?

SharonLoveth:
Scared of you that is slow in learning, you can't differentiate between a Latin word and a Greek word
