Of course!
But it isn't that they don't truely have an answer, however, they are AFRAID
1. Of the backlash from the stupidity and illogicality of their response
2. Of failure of another imminent failed prophecy as usual
3. Of the consequence of their apparent disbelief and lack of conviction of the Watchtower position
What is so difficult in saying ones understanding of the fulfillment of the 6 seals of Revelation Chapter 6?
The problem here is that you claimed you're a believer so why must you be so interested in what a group you called CULT teaches?

Why not just conclude like your friend:

Then assume they don't know.

you are the one on about john the baptist oh confused one and habitual liar:

1 cor 14:33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints

Joh 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, that is his natural way of speaking, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

lost false jw mad max

you originally said concerning Jesus that: " those related to him by blood are not as important to him than those related to him by faith"
and you posted links to verses about mary

i showed you how ridiculous your false claim is and that mary had even more faith than Jesus disciples of that time
mary knew Jesus would miraculously provide wine for the wedding banquet
but the disciples didn't truly believe on Him until after that miracle

and you of course continue with your nonsense and lies:

Joh 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, that is his natural way of speaking, for he is a liar and the father of lies.


because john the baptist had a moment of doubt has nothing at all to do with mary
and her faith

you claim some of mary's offspring died unbelievers, has nothing to do with mary and her faith

you are all over the place with your nonsense/lies oh lost false jw
Why not quote scriptures to back your point?

John knows better than all those who lived before Jesus began preaching and teaching.
That's what i said but you want to contest that so go straight to the point and stop nonsense! smiley

your usual nonsense/lies, from out of your head.
mary and joseph of course knew better than anyone that Jesus is the Son of God/the Christ who is to save His people from their sins:
You're just a FOOL!
John the baptist knows better than everyone in the first century that's why Jesus said:

"Truly I say to you, among those born of women, there has not been raised up anyone greater than John the Baptist, but a lesser person in the Kingdom of the heavens is greater than he is. From the days of John the Baptist until now, the Kingdom of the heavens is the goal toward which men press, and those pressing forward are seizing it. For all, the Prophets and the Law, prophesied until John" Matthew 11:11-13

John baptized Jesus not for the repentance of sin like other Jews but because Jesus wanted to begin his earthly assignment, John SAW God's Holy Spirit like a dove and also heard God's voice regarding who Jesus is.

So John knew better than anyone yet he still sent people to ask Jesus if he's the Christ for real {Matthew 11:2-3} why? Because all the Jews had wrong expectations regarding what the Christ will do when he comes.

That's why Jesus felt closely related to those who are following him and listening to his teachings because that's the only way they can decipher through his unequal supernatural GIFT and speeches that truly this is the Wonderful Counselor and might God promised to be born in their midst! Isaiah 9:6

It was towards the end of Jesus' earthly ministry that Mary (his mother) began putting faith in Jesus, that's why Jesus told apostle John to apply what he has always taught them regarding the family of the house of faith.
Mary will become John's mother while John will become Mary's son! John 19:26-27 compare to Matthew 12:46-50

James and Jude who were Jesus' siblings {Matthew 13:55} later became believers but the rest of Mary's children died as unbelievers!

So it is your own holy spirit that directs you to promote Oníṣègùn and íṣègùn here abi? Or it is your own holy spirit that directs you to show support for traditional medicines right?

All your politicians leaders in JWs that come from USA are they also prophets from Israel? Is your occultist religion, JWs a religion for Israelis alone? Since you talk on racist, let's address the racism in your occultist religion first sogbo
Luke one of the first century Jewish Christian is an Oníṣègùn {Colossians 4:14} so your argument on that is dead on arrival, and as for those taking the lead among God's people today Jesus already foretold:
"This is why I say to you, the Kingdom of God will be taken from you and be given to a nation producing its fruits" Matthew 21:43

For your information the white skinned men in the US are all migrants from different nations not one race, you can go back to history to find out the truth about that, and since America is the country where FREEDOM of SPEECH, EXPRESSION, WORSHIP and ASSOCIATION was declared God chose those people who started this research to find out what exactly should Christians be doing as the assignment Jesus gave them.
That's why the organization is under the control of Americans but note that those people aren't from the same race in fact most of them were Jews scattered all over the world that's the more reason they are supporting Jerusalem their original home.
So learn my friend those taking the lead among JWs are not from the same race but spiritually speaking they belong to the same family of the house of faith! smiley

Jesus said:

By their fruits you will recognize them. Never do people gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles, do they? Likewise, every good tree produces fine fruit, but every rotten tree produces worthless fruit. A good tree cannot bear worthless fruit, nor can a rotten tree produce fine fruit" Matthew 7:16-18

The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob promised that He will use His Holy Spirit to do something {Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3} and Jesus said "by FRUIT" surely the organization producing what God promised has God's backing! Matthew 5:14-16 smiley

mary knew that Jesus could miraculously produce wine for the wedding banquet after they had run out
Jesus mother had more faith in Jesus than his disciples did
it was after that miracle that his disciples truly believed in Him, john 2:11
Mary knew Jesus is different from all other children due to all she has seen, heard and experienced with the child {Luke 2:19} but when talking about faith in Jesus as the Christ Mary was just as confused as John the baptist who sent his disciples to ask if Jesus is sure that he's Christ {Matthew 11:2-3} in fact when Jesus was busy doing God's work Mary and her other sons kept trailing Jesus not because they wanted to learn from him as others were doing but because they believed he has run mad!

The deity of Christ becomes clearly evident - that He is of same nature as God.
Just as the first man (Adam) was created in the image of God {Genesis 1:26} so Jesus was called the last Adam! 1Corinthians 15:45

Everything else you can think about Jesus is none of our business if Adam never sinned , so it's sin that brought Jesus to view otherwise he will remain in his abode with nothing to do with us.

See this one. Just read what you wrote, all these torturous twists just to avoid a fact made obvious when you take the Bible as a whole. Yet you are the one who said God cannot let His words be tampered with - apparently except in case of worship of Christ!
"oh my God" is directed to God not to the person you are talking to. "My Lord and my God" was directed to Christ.
Stop making a fool of yourself arguing nonsense. Signs of Christ's divinity are all over the Bible
Who is making a fool of himself here?

You closed your eyes to so many things just to support your trinity bullshit. Peter said Jesus is the PROPHET who came in the manner of Moses {Act 3:22} Peter confirmed that after he became baptized by the spirit which makes his statement valid than Thomas who is talking in the flesh and doubting what Jesus taught them about his resurrection.

Jesus ~

©Said there's only one true God! Mark 12:29; John 17:3

©Was given authority by God! Matthew 28:18

©Said Almighty is the father and God of all including himself! John 20:17

©Prayed to God. Mark 1:35

©Begged God for safety of his life. Hebrews 5:7

©Surrendered his life to God. Luke 23:46

©Was resurrected by God. Act 3:15; 5:30


So he is not the Almighty God but a God in the manner of Moses who also relied on God just as the scriptures says. smiley

Christianity Etc › Re: Top 20 Biblical Verses That Prove Paul Contradicted Jesus by MaxInDHouse(m): 3:30pm On Aug 08, 2022
The Hebrews have their traditional way that most of them are used to when it comes to worship and Jesus lived in accordance with that tradition.
But before the event at pentecostal Jesus told his listeners that the Jewish tradition will soon end and a new system will ensue {John 4:21-24} despite three years that Jesus spent with his Apostles they still found it really difficult to meet up with the change in tradition so Jesus chose Paul who is both vast in the tradition of the Jews as well as nationalized as a Roman.

Jesus specifically chose Paul to translate Christianity for the gentiles who may find it really difficult to switch over from Judaism to Christianity. So if you're reading what Jesus told his Jewish disciples before pentecost and comparing to how Paul translated it to gentiles you will have serious issues without the help of true Christians who fully understood both sides and the transition! smiley

People may change their religion but their blood relations need to know that such a person remains a member of his family it's only sacred services that should not engage them together.
Jesus set limit for family ties by showing that those related to him by blood are not as important to him than those related to him by faith {Matthew 12:56-60} but if his families are having a social gathering Jesus honours them! John 2:1-2

From all other sins a human can make a U-turn but in politics there's no going back because Satan is the overall ruler of this world {2Corinthians 4:4; 1John 5:19} all politicians have sold their soul to the devil! Luke 4:5-7 smiley
Christianity Etc › Re: How Is Jesus God ? by MaxInDHouse(m): 2:38pm On Aug 08, 2022
PoliteActivist:
My friends ALL major prophets and teachers and angels, whenever someone tried to worship them, rebuked the person that only God was to be worshipped. Among the many things throughout the Bible that confirm His divinity, Jesus was wirshipped and accepted worship, He accepted worship!
From the beginning of Jesus’ life, we see examples of Him being worshiped. As soon as the Magi laid eyes on the infant Christ, “they bowed down and worshiped Him” (Matthew 2:11).
Just after Jesus amazed the disciples by walking on water, “those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, ‘Truly you are the Son of God’” (Matthew 14:33).
Just after His resurrection. Some of the women (Matthew 28:8-9; Mark 16:1; Luke 24:10) were on their way to tell the disciples of the resurrection when Jesus met them on their way. When they realized it was He, they “came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him” (Matthew 28:9).
Then there is the case of Thomas, who didn’t believe Jesus had risen from the dead despite the other disciples’ testifying to that fact. It had been about a week since the resurrection, and Thomas still doubted it. Jesus, knowing Thomas doubted, appeared to him and showed him the nail marks in His hands and feet and the wound in His side. How did Thomas respond? “Thomas said to him, ‘My Lord and my God!’” (John 20:28).
And when He made His triumphal entry into Jerusalem: “They took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, crying out, ‘Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!’” (Matthew 21:9; John 12:13) The word hosanna is a plea for salvation and an expression of adoration and worshiph.
In none of these instances do we see Jesus telling those worshiping Him to stop, as did ALL before and after Him, including angels! (Acts 10:25–26; Revelation 19:9–10).
** Note that Thomas was with him all through and heard many things He said that never made it into the Bible. He got the full message more than we ever can.
And what was his conclusion? - this person was God!
Misinterpretation is what caused that, the text mistranslated WORSHIP simply means OBEISANCE.
Jesus worshiped the one and only true God {Mark 12:29} and told his disciples to do the same when he referred to someone else as his father and God! John 20:17

The same OBEISANCE was given to all the prophets of God in the Bible but those trinity translators refused to use the same terms!

Thomas only exclaimed at the sight Jesus gave him just as anyone will say "oh my God" at the sight of something strange!

Christianity Etc › Re: "Is This Christianity?" Lady Asks After Her Pastor Scolded Her For Wearing This by MaxInDHouse(m): 10:18am On Aug 08, 2022
In the midst of true believers (Christians) she will be welcomed and even honoured for ever thinking of coming into the gathering of the Holy Ones. It's mercy that Jesus want not judgment! Matthew 9:12

Where thing goes wrong is the gathering she attended not her dress.
If she attends a true Christian meeting for the first time of course she will find out that she's different from everyone because in the midst of true believers our motive is to go out for preaching and teaching in our neighbourhood {Matthew 10:11-13} and that's what we always call on God's Holy Spirit to direct us in doing. John 14:26-27

So if an interested person should dress like this to our meetings she will only find out that such dressing doesn't befit our purpose of meeting together.
A friend of mine once attended the meetings of true believers with Jerry curl on head and earrings but that was the last day he used earrings and immediately he went out of the Kingdom Hall he scrapped off the Jerry curl.
Did anyone scold him?
Naaaaaaaaaa! On the contrary everyone came to greet him. So he asked me "why is everyone coming to greet me?" Have you told them i'm coming to their meetings?" I said "but you just decided to follow me this morning because you came visiting without informing me, so how can i inform them ahead of what i myself don't even know?"


After the meetings i remember his comment till today:

"I wanted to attend the meetings of God's people and i looked totally like a stranger, but if i am not a stranger to God why should i look like a stranger among HIS people?"

Tears of joy ran through my cheeks and i said to him "Stephen you're welcome into the gathering of the Holy Ones"

So let them come and see the difference between pure worship and falsehood. It's the spirit in their hearts that will determine where they truly belong whether they're for God in their hearts or Satan's agents.
Merely looking at people can't help us know the real sheep because many are what they're presently due to circumstances beyond their control. Remember the thief Jesus promised saying:

Today i'm promising you, you will be with me in Paradise! Luke 23:43

Can anyone ever know that a thief could have a mild heart?
What about the promiscuous lady that came kneeling before Jesus? She lived a wayward lifestyle before Jesus Christ came to her town, everyone knew she's a prostitute but did Jesus scolded her?
NO! In fact Jesus commended her courage for coming to kneel before the prophet their people hated with passion! Luke 7:36-50

Jesus loves all! John 3:16 smiley
