Look at the work of your god Jehovah in the lives of underaged Children. Not only does he require Child Sacrifice, he also ordered Watchtower to have Victims of Child Sexual Abuse punished for reporting this abuse to the authorities. Now, Pennsylvania Attorney General has decided to face you JWs. You JWs will continue to trend for the wrong reasons. Satan's Worshippers! No wonder those many JWs have ran away from the Cult. Who wants to be in a Cult where their children are not safe? Over 1,000 congregations merged to be One congregation. Every year, thousands and thousands of congregations are removed. Chai! What a loss of members! Almighty God is not with you JW. Satan is.

Is there a better replacement for JW?

Wilgrea7:
The verse you quoted talked about staying away from the tree of knowledge of good and evil.. not politics. Don't try to be sneaky.
Absolutely not. There is no overall message of the bible. It is a collection of books that tell different stories at different points in time.
I don't see your point here. You've just listed a bunch of “sins" in the bible, and are trying to accuse everyone else of committing them.
There's no argument here... Just you pointing fingers.

Wilgrea7:
Your bible quotations don't annoy me. But for some reason, you're the one who thinks quoting from a questionable book somehow does something to strengthen your argument.
I've used this analogy before. It's like me quoting from harry Potter novels to prove something about Harry Potter. I can do that all I want, but it won't make it any more real.

Wilgrea7:
There's nothing to disprove, because you've not proven anything. You've made empty claims with nothing to back them up.
In regards to politics, you guys really aren't special. I've told you before. Choosing to abstain from politics doesn't make JWs, as an organization, free from those sins you mentioned above.
A quick Google search of the words “JWs" and “abuse" will drive that point home to you. So your claim in respect to that is dead on arrival.
Secondly, by claiming to abstain from political matters, while simultaneously shouting “politics" at every turn, you indirectly involve yourself in the political sphere. Although not an active participant, but a participant nonetheless.

Namdio:
I don't see how the bible verse you quoted helps your argument.

Namdio:
This is a thread.
Anyone can post their opinion.
She did just that,
It was you and the other guy who took it upon yourselves to argue with her.

HarlequinLekex:
Matthew ch 8 vs 22,
But Jesus said to him,"Follow me,and let the people that are dead bury their own dead".

What is the meaning of the underlined?

uche40:
Stop hallucinating and take a good squint around the thread to see that since the beginning of the thread, YOU are the one who's been seeking to impose your opinions on me. I typed just one sentence and was on my merry way but you and your half-baked brother couldn't just let things go because the words I stated truly hurt your feelz. You said it yourself here:
For the record, if it's the word "delusional" that's been biting your ass, then I really am sorry. You see, I have the tendency to be uncharacteristically blunt and I call things the way I see it. You truly do exhibit signs of delusion. Take it or leave it.

Wilgrea7:
For someone who claims to belong to an organization not involved in politics, you seem to make almost every single thing political.

ANTIlSLAM:
Buhahahaha I asked you question base on the nonsense you typed here, how will you tell me that the technology discovery from the phone you are using, the internet you are enjoying, etc are demonic possessed but your babalawo that do prepares herbs for rituals is not demon possessed all because his shrine is your second home.
ÀBÚRÒ ÌYÀWÓ BABALÁWO, opolo e ti y'oro, you need prayers

SopaterOfBeroea:
SeniorMan letsl us who were born and brought up as JW's speak. You might never understand until you pass through the same route.
I can relate to all that Temple333 was saying but I'll tell you that I never had his Zeal, his own is just extraordinary.

SeniorMan715:
Got a watchtower today from a jw , The search for truth, awesome.

I don't talk to mentally deranged homosapiens
You're supposed to be in the rehabilitation center.
For the sake of my sanity, don't qoute me again. In order to defend nonsense you made a fool of yourself, a boneheaded dimwitted fellow.
Get a life

cornelboy:
Doesn't matter if was capped at 1000 books.
The facts is that the Bible has sufficient truth.

OkCornel:
MaxinDHouse, is this how Jehovah Witnesses conduct themselves on this forum? I expect better. Or perhaps, I'm expecting too much from someone who can no longer hold an intellectually stimulating and spiritual discussion. Cornelboy You can scamper off to your 66 books. This discussion is definitely beyond what your mind can handle.
Just to think the same you asked for this earlier
And you just proved my response below to be right
E no getter for religious brainwashing.
The TRUTH is for those who want to be set free.

uche40:

uche40:
I hope you can see now that when I called you delusional, it wasn't an insult. You are clearly having imaginations about what I've been saying on this thread.

ANTIlSLAM:
So you can make calls, send messages, browse the internet, etc with the help of the demons shey you know sha? You are kinda daft aswear. Imagine, you this oponu telling me that technology is demonic possessed discovery and to tell us where you get this nonsense from la problem

OkCornel:
Jehovah Witness is a religion?
Sorry, let's break this down.
If you are witness for God...is that a religion?
In literal terms, are witnesses automatically religious people?

uche40:
Imagine thinking I was ever making any arguments for Buddhism.

OkCornel:
Can you help Cornelboy with the book, chapter and verse God labelled a so called religion he gave mankind?

Please, I'm interested in the name God called it...not what man invented and labelled it as.

uche40:
Imagine thinking your Biblical scriptures have any basis in reality.

cornelboy:
Baba go and sleep.
All the ten commandments, burnt offerings, sin offering, Sabbath worship etc is not religion right?

uche40:
Imagine a Christian thinking he can tell who's a real atheist and who isn't.

ANTIlSLAM:
You mean God's word says your demonic possessed phone is for your use bah? You try

uche40:
I made it perfectly clear numerous times that I don't care to hear your preachings and hermeneutics and I told you verbatim at the beginning that I don't have any need to worship your God and tend to his infantile needs. So, I'm guessing you have short term memory. The truth is that you think YOU are the sole authority on what the Bible says is true or false, and you thought you could dazzle me with your claptrap but you failed.
Better luck next time.

OkCornel:
How can one be pure in heart and yet be doomed?
Won’t they see God as Jesus mentioned in the beatitudes?

OkCornel:
MaxinDHouse, see the curious case of Simon the Sorcerer;

Acts 8 v 9-24;

9 But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one:

10 To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God.

11 And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries.

12 But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

13 Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done.

14 Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John:

15 Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost:

16 (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)

17 Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.

18 And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,

19 Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.

20 But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.

21 Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.

22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.

23 For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.

24 Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the Lord for me, that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me.

OkCornel:
So there were Christians on the planet when Jesus preached the sermon on the Mount?
By the way, do you recall what happened to Simon the sorcerer despite being baptised, believed the gospel and followed the Apostles around? He was scolded for trying to purchase the Holy Spirit with money, and told to repent because HIS HEART was not right with God.
Bible studies and baptism is pointless if one’s heart isn’t pure and right before God.

oteneaaron:
You still didn't answer my question and yes there is DEFINITELY a better alternative to the JW cult, but it isn't exactly what you think it is.

uche40:
Your request was granted with three links showing the benefits of Buddhism to its adherents and the society at large. So if you don't mind, please go and sit in the corner as it is clear to me now that you've used up your intelligence bonus for the day. You've become boring and tiresome. When you're ready to honestly address the evils of your cult group, let me know. For now, you're interrupting my conversation with a more decent and reasonable Christian.

OkCornel:
Matthew 5 v 8;
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

uche40:
Where is the facepalm emoji when you need one? This comment is ridiculously naive!

First of all, by bragging about the extent and/or measure of the global penetration of your religion, you are making the rookie mistake of appealing to popularity -- a very basic logical fallacy known as Argumentum ad Populum. And even if we ignore the fallacy, I'd also like to bring to your attention that Islam is currently the fastest growing religion, poised to overtake Christianity in the near future. What do have to say on that front?

Secondly, I'm not a Buddhist, so discussing the benefits of Buddhism with me is a pointless exercise. The relevance of my quote was evident to anyone with half a brain to understand. If you are so interested in the benefits of the practice of Buddhism, you can check out the following links: LINK 1, LINK 2, LINK 3

Thirdly, we know the REAL reasons why Jehovah's Witnesses have been rightfully condemned in some countries. Most of those reasons were pointed out to you, the majority of which you hilariously dodged.

oteneaaron:
So help me understand something - at bolded - -
You guys are selling off kingdom halls and assembly halls in America and Europe to raise capital to "EQUALIZE" where it is needed?
[1]Why would you sell a kingdom hall and an assembly hall if people aren't leaving the organization in droves?
[2]Why were the kingdom halls and assembly halls built in the first place?

zoer:
Is there a better replacement for JW?

Courz:
In a JW organisation video I watched last year, it was explained that certain Kingdom halls with time have less than half of JWs attending these Kingdom halls. When this happens, congregations are merged together to be one Congregation. Let's say amongst 5 kingdom halls that have less than half of JWs attending it, two or three congregations are merged to be one and two or three Kingdom halls are put up for sale. At least in that video, they admitted that JW attendance to Kingdom halls reduces with time.

Now use your brain like how an intelligence officer normally should (Even though it is very shameful to call you one because you've got a brain filled with shaft), Ask yourself, why is it that less than half of JWs attend in these Kingdom halls? Where did the rest of JWs attending these Kingdom halls disappear to? Watchtower will not think of selling Kingdom halls if these halls are always filled with JWs.

You asked why Kingdom halls are not sold in Africa. Stop trying to be stupid and use your brain. Have you seen the state of the art Kingdom halls in these countries where they are being sold? Look around and see the kind of Kingdom halls Built in Nigeria for instance. Watchtower uses cheap materials to build your Masonic look alike Kingdom halls. They are not built to be sold. Watchtower looks at your country as a very poor country with very little income to be made. They are Racist remember? Another point, your currency is in the pit. Very little value. How much dollars will be made when your devalued naira is converted to dollars? Have you seen how much Watchtower makes selling these Kingdom halls? Prices range from $500,000 to Millions. Watchtower are very materialistic in their sales. Always remember that Watchtower is a business First before a Charlatan religion. Watchtower builds cheap Masonic look alike Kingdom halls in Africa while state of the art kingdom halls are built in other countries.

I know you are trying to be deliberately stupid but we can see right through it because your long explanation was a waste and shows you are trying to deny the fact that your Cult is dying with very flimsy and stupid excuses you have presented.

Watchtower is presently being sued in different corners by Child Sexual Abuse victims and they are actively looking for Kingdom halls with very low JW attendance in order to merge congregations and sell these halls to raise money for many reasons including settling the Upcoming Child Sexual Abuse lawsuits.

So, Yes, low attendance of JWs as a result of finding the lies of the Cult will lead to merging of congregations which leads to sales of Kingdom halls which also leads to paying Child Sexual abuse victims and lawsuits.

The man that casted out that demon in Jesus’ name… did he jump through these hoops?

Only the pure in heart will see God.

If the heart isn’t right, all these other requirements are pointless.

Note - I’m not in anyway disputing with you. Apologies if you have that impression, it’s not my intention.

Stay blessed.
