Christianity Etc › Re: Facts About Christmas You Need To Know. by MaxInDHouse(m): 7:32am On Dec 29, 2021
AntiChristian:
Where did I say you were never a Muslim? I kept emphasising ignorance in you then as well as now!

I won't say those who follow my way if Islam but the way of the Qu'ran and Sunnah.

I can say you were not a Muslim back then I know your situation then!
My child, the problem here is not about the Qu'ran or Sunnah rather it's what each person concludes after reading the book.
The only way to establish facts is not by reading books and interpreting what is written in it, it's by practicing it in order to benefit both you and those around you.
That's why i keep emphasizing on the group practicing pure Islam.
I will not argue with you again once you do that because the performance of such a group globally will be sufficient enough to convince all right thinking persons that what you're saying is from the Creator and not some monster demons.

Thank you! smiley

Papa JW, this your diversion tactics don old. Stop saying these na, we know you were an ignorant Muslim back then. You know nothing much except hearsays.

Why not respond to what I said directly next time instead of reminding me of when you were a Muslim but not Muslim?
I agree with you 100% that i wasn't a Muslim for real just as Boko Haram, Isis, Al Shabab, Al Kedah, Taliban killing innocent people are not real Muslims. Just as all Muslims joining in the celebration of Christmas aren't Muslims for real, just as all Muslims drinking alcoholic beverages aren't Muslims for real, just as all Muslims eating bush meat not bleeded and pork meat aren't Muslims for real, just as all Muslims periodically worshiping with Churchgoers aren't Muslims for real! cheesy

Ọmọ if you said i wasn't a Muslim for real, i can only be fully convinced that there is something called Muslim when you present a group practicing Islam purely. In the absence of that none of you is practicing Islam for real because from the viewpoint of some Muslims even you are not a Muslims, ló bá tán! huh

So present a group that's practicing Islam purely then i will know the things i missed when i was a Muslim! smiley

Brother MaxinDHouse, ekale oooo !

Can you now see why that deceptive man can not be steadfast in serving Jehovah our God?
Good morning my brother, before i came to NL i used to have some doubts regarding the orders of the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses even though they have all the scriptural backings to build it up. But after my few years on NL i now see everything clearly.

Each day i try to chat with an apostate i keep seeing more proof that these people are really unbalanced mentally. WHY?
I often read comments on NL before my wife taught me how to join and participate in the ongoing discussions, if anyone read my first few comments (Maximus69) you will notice that i only came to catch some fun.
I loved the way Acholardey and others were joking with the JWs on every issue so i begin to like him. But then i realized that there are some commentators who are really serious about the discussions and such ones weren't as jovial as Acholardey rather they were CURSING the JWs! embarassed
So i decided to tell them to calm down after all we are just catching some fun and it shouldn't be a do or die affair. If you choose not to be one of Jehovah's Witnesses it's OK just know their rules and how to deal with them from their point of view that's all.
Then i noticed that Acholardey wasn't really jovial as i thought rather he has serious issues with the JWs that's why he's criticizing them and to my shocking surprise he doesn't caution anyone to be liberal with the discussion instead he's in full support of any commentator who is issuing hurtful words at the JWs. That was the reason why i changed and started discussing with him perhaps he could see that he's taking things to the extreme. But the more i chat with him the more i see how bitter he is. He is only using the funny Mems as a disguise he is really a sadist.
So i began chatting with him at least to clear my doubts about the Governing Body that i've been thinking they're making decisions for their followers.
All that is in the past, now i'm 100% convinced that all ExJWs are mentally unstable and the only reason is because they're missing what they stubbornly rejected (brotherhood) so they're suffering inwardly, that's why they can't just let go of the Organization they left! undecided

Music has nothing to do with God as long as it has been commercialized, singers, drummers, instrumentalists, producers, marketers, show organizers and all others connected to the industry are after money making.
So don't let anyone deceive you, it's the fans that determines the lyrics of your music stars.
It's the feelings and likeness of the fans that determines what the singer will utter.
I was into music during my early twenties so i can tell you the secret behind music.

In this little write-up, these terms would have their meaning in Context as follows:
GOD-- Signifies the "supreme being" from any religion ( Yahweh, Allah, Buhdda, Sango, Krishna, Oduduwa, Owoicho........etc)
MAN-- Signifies You and I ; all humans existing and non-existing(HUMANITY as a whole)
RELIGION-- signifies all of the worlds religion (after-all they are all products of the same factory)
WHO CREATED GOD??
Its no wonder that when you ask he above question to any religious minded person and you're gonna get differing answers.
Ask any creationist : "What is the proof that Man was created ? " , "how do we know that life and all there is had a designer?"
And we receive this reply that -- Man and all there is are intelligent creatures ; the human brain, the universe in general attest to the fact that everything was created by a Supreme Being...
*Please note the argument - an intelligent creation must have an intelligent designer-
So here is the correlation, If you seriously believe that "nothing came from nothing" and there has to be an explanation for our "intelligence",
then GOD must have been created too!!!
WHY?
"GOD" exists and he is very ( if not too Intelligent---common, he's GOD!!).....so what is the explanation for his Intelligencehuhhuh??
If the world as we know it attests to fact of the existence of a creator, then that creator must have been created because HE(GOD) bears the same (proof of an Intelligent creator) Qualities.
Now who created GOD??
Sadly, the answer has been right in Front of Us all this time........
WE created GOD!! You and I , MAN.....
When we were perplexed as to how the universe was sparse and awe-inspiring, we had to give credit to -someone- so we invented GOD
When were Scared because we felt or experience disappointment, death, sickness..etc, we needed Solace and we created GOD to blame and to beg for assistance
When we felt the need to Control our fellow MAN, we created GOD and religion to keep humans in check , after-all they must all answer to our creation -GOD-
GET IT RIGHT...

Now, our creation of GOD may have been a necessary evil, and MAN is growing up....the time has come for us to let go of Childish things!!

I said what I said.
Until you let go of any form of religion and indoctrination, nothing I say will ever make any sense to you.
Yeah, until everyone believe that humans created God! cheesy

Well let me answer the question for the benefit of other followers.

There are two things that makes Jehovah and Jesus happy all the time.
The first is doing what they ought to do and the second which billions are missing is having a multitude from different races and classes cohabiting as brothers and sisters! Psalms 133:1; Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3; Zephaniah 3:9
That's why Jesus prayed fervently to his father to help all his disciples with the Holy Spirit so that they will all have the same line of thought with Jehovah and Jesus! John 17:20-23
That's why Jesus happily and joyously presented his disciples who have the same line of thought with him as his brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, sons and daughters! Matthew 12:46-50

That's the only thing that can make any normal human happy because we were created in the image of God who also cherished UNITY. Genesis 1:26

That is the reason why all those who left Jehovah's Witnesses organization are feeling bitter inside because there's nowhere they can find what brings happiness to the heart of God and His only begotten Son except in the gathering of Jehovah's Witnesses.

I was a Muslim before i converted to JW when i left Islam it was as if i never practiced it before, WHY? Because no normal human dwells on the thoughts of lacking after you've found abundance {Luke 6:45} but people always remember when they had more than enough when they are hungry.

That's why you and your friends can't think of any better performing group so you keep dwelling in the past: when they are still in the gathering of the people worshiping the happy God.

Farewell! smiley

His problem started when turned his back on God's people (Jehovah's Witnesses) Jesus said anyone who comes to his group will experience a turnaround as the demons dwelling in the hearts of unbelievers will be driven out from his heart.
But failure to continue feeding his minds with the good things coming from the GB of Jehovah's Witnesses his heart will become idle then the demon that was driven out from his mind will return with more wicked demons so his last condition will be worse than the first time he knew God's people!

You are welcome to the gathering of those who turned their backs on Jehovah's Witnesses organization.
These people wanted to be free so they left JWs thinking the over 8,700,000 are fools for obeying the GB of Jehovah's Witnesses.
This is exactly what Jesus said about them:

“When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through waterless places in search of a resting-place and finds none. Then it says, ‘I will go back to my house from which I moved,’ and on arriving, it finds the house unoccupied but swept clean and adorned. Then it goes and takes along with it seven different spirits more wicked than itself, and after getting inside, they dwell there; and the final circumstances of that man become worse than the first. That is how it will be also with this wicked generation! Matthew 12:43-45

The Bible God is a "happy God" {1Timothy 1:11} therefore Jesus who is God's only begotten Son must be really happy (BLISSFUL)

My advice for JWs out there - I know it's hard, but try to keep an open mind and listen to all sides of the argument.

Imagine how blissful your life would become when you let go of any form of religion and indoctrination.
The highlighted above really sounds kindly but what do you want me to make of the below when you just begin telling stories instead of answering my question:

"apart from doing God's will (which every religious person is claiming today), what is the second thing that makes Jesus BLISSFUL?"

oteneaaron:
Hahahahaha.
So typical.
The art of jumping the gun, ignoring the message and attacking the messenger.
So so typical of you grin grin
Who are you calling an apostate?
Who are you calling a sadist?
If you can't read and understand, say nothing.
It's so funny seeing you talk about God sending Jesus to earth, when you are just an "other sheep" who is simply assisting Christ's "Anointed" Brothers (the GB)
I am sure you will still not get what I mean.
You quote scriptures and talk about Jesus, when in reality, the indoctrination sessions you participate in via Zoom every single week teaches that the sacrifice of Jesus doesn't apply to you - only the 144,000(GB and Co.)
After all, as a rank and file JW, your salvation depends not on the blood Jesus shed for ALL of mankind, but strictly on your loyalty to the GB/Organization - or this is a lie?
You have given your power away to men like you!
Like I have adviced you before, do yourself a favor and research the TRUE HISTORY of the JW Organization.
Go back memory lane and start from when Pastor CT Russell after studying the Egyptian Pyramid of Giza, had the inspiration to write the first four volumes of the "Finished Mystery".
The same Pastor CT Russell who was a verified 33rd Degree Mason, and has a pyramid towering over his grave.
Read with an open mind, learn to listen to all sides of an argument, and hopefully someday, you will free your mind from every form of religion and indoctrination.
Until then, Namaste.
Please if it's my description of ExJWs that irritated you i sincerely tender an apology.
So can we leave that aside and answer the question now?

"apart from doing God's will (which every religious person is claiming today), what is the second thing that makes Jesus BLISSFUL?"

Christianity Etc › Re: Will RICH Pastors Enter The KINGDOM Of Heaven? by MaxInDHouse(m):
AquaPetals:
Going by what Christ said in the book of Matthew 19:24....."....it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.(NIV)
....
Since it is practically impossible for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, can we now conclude that the rich pastors(bling-bling pastors, private jet pastors, grammarian pastors, Limousine pastors, billion-dollar pastors, etc), would not enter the Promised Kingdom?


Christian scholars and MOG in the house. Please do justice huh
Whenever Jesus open his mouth the words protruding out are proverbial and in most cases symbolic {Matthew 13:13} that's why most readers of the Bible failed to grasp the man's message!

There were rich men like Nicodemus, Joseph Arimathea, Cornelius, Zacchaeus and many more who were very rich among Jesus' followers back then. For instance Jesus taught his followers that they will have families in all the earth, though it sounds strange to Jesus' friends who are Jews (a highly racist nation) but Jesus proved it by his actions. He asked them to go and untie a donkey and during the passover Jesus used a furnished apartment to mark the passover with his disciples, both donkey and furnished apartment belongs to rich disciples of Jesus that are not known to his Apostles.

So what is the import of Jesus' statement found at Matthew 19:24?

"Again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to get through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God.”


There are two categories of RICH people that Jesus is talking about here.

The first are individuals who have better understanding of God's word but kept it to themselves while their neighbours are suffering and perishing due to lack of understanding of God's word. Such people may choose to be so because they want to remain relevant before everyone as people do revere such ones and hold them in high esteem with prestigious religious titles. Therefore they will only dish out what they feel in order not to equipped others around them so that they will be revered as knowledgeable all the time. Luke 16:19-21
So they're rich spiritually speaking but stingy or WICKED as they don't want others to become knowledgeable like them, in reality they make unrighteous material gains through the ignorance of their neighbours, instead of making disciples for Christ they turned their neighbours to misinformed Churchgoers due to their own greed! Matthew 25:18, 25


The second category of rich people Jesus talked about may have material possessions physically or poor materially speaking but in their hearts all what they think of is riches. So their thinking and outlook on all matters will become thwarted always because of what they made the priority in their lives: RICHES Matthew 6:19-23

Both categories can never see the kingdom of God because even if they're opportuned to meet Jesus one on one instead of clinging to him their love for riches will hinder them! Luke 18:18-23 compare to Matthew 26:14-16

Imagine how blissful your life would become when you let go of any form of religion and indoctrination. If only you would realize that all you have been searching for, has been INSIDE YOU from the very beginning. Look inwards and you will find the answers you seek.

I hate responding to apostates (ExJWs became sadists) but i noticed you don't know the real cause of these ExJWs problem so i want to help you out.

The one and only begotten Son God Himself presented to mankind is Jesus of Nazareth, God wants us to put on the personality this son of His exhibited (portrayed) when he (Jesus) walked the earth. Matthew 17:5 compare to Ephesians 4:22-24

The highlighted in your post caught my attention so i want to ask you a question:
apart from doing God's will, what else did God's word emphasize as that which makes Jesus BLISSFUL?
God bless you and may you have PEACE! smiley

Every Muslim is expecting to obey Allah command
You are missing my point here.
It's your own interpretation of Allah's word against their own.
So tell me the name of the group in Islam that's practicing Islam the right way.
Otherwise it's just your view against their view that's why Donald Trump could say "even Muslims do celebrate Christmas" but if we know a specific group of Muslims practicing Islam in the right way people like me will ignore all others to know what Islam really teach.
For instance i was once a Muslim but it's this confusion that made me search for the truth about God elsewhere and when i met the Jehovah's Witnesses they confidently claim that they are the one and only group practicing what Jesus taught.
So i joined them, can you also present one group practicing what your God Allah said in the Qu'ran? undecided

As God has disciples so does Satan. As you wouldn't expect God's disciples to speak immoral or corrupt words don't expect the devil's to speak uplifting or words that might lift the soul.
Even your so called popular gospel Queen Tope Alabi is a Malian! cheesy

Qur'an 6:173 God says in the Quran: You are forbidden [the consumption of carrion, blood, swine flesh, that (meat) over which a name other than that of God has been invoked, (the meat of] strangled animals, those that have fallen, been beaten or rammed (or gorged by other animals).

In Quran God warn Muslim not to eat any animals that other name has being callef except name of all. And we all know that reason why Christian make food during Christmas is to celebrate Jesus and they tag all their food Christmas food, Christmas chicken etc. If any Muslim celebrate such festival he/ she is against law of God and he/she is a munafiqunh. Allah always warn Muslim but those with long throut will always show up
So in a nutshell which group is practicing Islam in the right way as commanded by your God? undecided

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, Jehovah's Witnesses! smiley

Only one Archangel is mentioned in the Bible, his name is Michael {Jude 9} Jesus is going to use the voice of the Archangel! 1Thessalonians 4:16 smiley
Jesus said when he returns with his angels {Matthew 25:31} and only Michael the Archangel is mentioned as having his angels! Revelations 12:7
Archangel Michael is standing for the SALVATION of God's people {Daniel 12:1} just as Jesus is the only one through whom we must be SAVED! Act 4:12

See deluded Witchtower people but you want to tell the Christians how to run Christmas or not do it.

grin
You see the hypocrisy.
Almost all celebrations be it Weddings with wedding bands/rings, anniversaries, etcetera all have pagan origins but Witchtower publishers have the right to select their own pagan celebrations while the Christians should not with their Christmas.

Una mu.mu too much. grin

I hope you don't also have so many of these modern brands like Nike and others in your house because take Nike. It goes back to Greek goddess origin.

Virtually, everything comes with a pagan origin.
Your PERSONAL opinion.
You've been arguing with almost everyone on the thread because of Christmas so if you want to celebrate it no one is holding you back but i quoted you because you're trying to blame Jehovah's Witnesses for everyone who decides to forgo Christmas, that's why i quoted you otherwise it's your life live it the way you know best! wink
