Is Jehovah witness a name of a church? Or a religion gathering.
And who is a true Christian?

God is the one who changed the name that observers in Antioch called His worshipers {Act 11:26} because that's not the name He wanted His worshipers to be called. All servants of God from Abel till today are Jehovah's Witnesses though each of His worshipers are called different group name in each generation. Isaiah 43:10

naijapikin2:
Jehovah's witnesses that claim that Chris has already come? That he came in 1914? Or you don't know?... Keep deluding yourself. Na your mama soup sweet pass my mama own abi?

I am a tither and I it works for me. If it doesn't work for you fine, but don't try and rubbish a mystery in the kingdom because you don't believe in it... It works for us. STOP TAKING MEDICATION FOR OUR HEALTH ISSUES.

I don't believe in using salt to pray...some Christians do and it works for them.so I don't condemn it.as load it works for them fine

Do what works for you but stop criticizing others who do it. You make it seem like you know better that those who engage in it.

Make reference to hebrews 7:... From verse 1...

Shalom 🙏🙏🙏

Ọmọ Jesus came that year as a spirit King so whether you believe or not the evidence is everywhere today as none of you can boldly mention the name of your church due to shame!

TruthinAction:
And I know all Jehovah Witness are not born again. You are all still in the Kingdom of darkness. You are just being religious. You don't know the Jehovah you preach because you don't know Jesus.

You missed big time!

We have BORN AGAIN brothers among us but they will never tell you who is not a member of our congregation because you don't even know what it means.

So stop deceiving yourself there are BORN AGAIN Christians but none is outside Jehovah's Witnesses organization all of them are in our midst even though they are relatively few!

ichuka:
Wetin b d names of the churches in Asian and which spirits dey tell Ur organisation what to do?

If you don't know the true Christians today have different churches so we call each by the name of their location just as Jesus was calling the names of those churches by their location in the Bible book of Revelations.
So throughout the earth people call us Jehovah's Witnesses but we have different churches (congregations) that if anything goes wrong we know the congregation affected and how to assist our brothers.

The congregation in Russia.
The congregation in Europe.
The congregation in Africa.
The congregation in America.
The congregation in Australia.
The congregation in South America.

All these are churches (congregations) of Jehovah's Witnesses each facing different challenges yet we were all taught the same thing not like you people where your religions contradicts one another yet claiming you are Christians!

Righteousness2:
If you claim to be a believer and you do away with the bible , you are deceiving yourself .
You cannot be more advanced by GOD and HIS Word.
The Bible says Search the Scriptures! It didn't say punch the Scriptures.
The Bible is your identity as a Believer.
Else you are FAKE.

Mouka pikin, it's the word we need not the paper.
When God inspired the writers they don't write on paper but scrolls so why not go back to using scrolls?
Ọmọ God is not against technology go and tell your pastor in your chosen church!

Sirmwill:
I am not a Jehovah Witness person
I am not even a church person
But
I can tell you ,you are saying a lot of truth but
Most people would not accept
So
Don't bother yourself much with arguments 😇

Thanks!
I don't argue it's only telling whoever wants to know the truth whenever i see anyone who wants to argue i just ignore!

ErebeOcoco:
on the contrary, Buddhist are the most peaceful.

Are Buddhists going from house to house and door to door in order to make people peace lovers throughout the world?
Well being peaceful starts from going to visit your neighbors in their homes with the aim of helping them to see reasons why they must become peaceful not just sitting in one location of the earth claiming you are peaceful.
That's what Jesus the Prince of Peace established! Matthew 10:11-13; Act 1:8 compare to Isaiah 2:2-4

Please how many Buddhists do you have in your own neighborhood?

ichuka:
The spirit of God guides every christains not a selected few.
John 14:26...But the Helper, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and remind you of all that I said to you.
Did He say He will teach and remind some elders or pastors only.
Dude
Try and hear what the Holy Spirit says to the church and not a sect with a name.
The seven churches in Asian what are there names,
Was any named Jehovah House or Pentecostal church?
Please hear from the Spirit and understand.

Nah your own mind you dey tok if there is no visible church having what you are saying as doctrine!

Because Christianity is the only religion that's removing the use of weapons in the hearts of people making them happy and peace loving worshipers! Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3

ichuka:
Rev2:29...The one who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’
So what are and Ur organisation hearing from the Holy Spirit?
Ok,I forgot,u guys listen to men elders instead of the Holy Spirit right?
Keep it up bro.
U guys aren't different from other religion period.

The spirit of God guides those taking the lead in the church while they guide the members otherwise there can't be unism in beliefs.

That's why you can't mention any church that's being guided by this your spirit because you are alone with your lying spirit!

Brenbentondiaz:
Very good analysis and reply. But trust me, they won't listen. It's hard to convince most people otherwise of what they've been taught since they were kids, no matter how wrong it is.

Only unbelievers behave like that anyone having real faith knows that the faith in God differs from how God deals with different generations due to changes in system of worship.
The system of worship in Judaism is no more what Christians practice today so there must be changes in operation! Hebrews 7:12

helinues:
Some people have read over 5 books but it's only religious book that the reading is unfinished

When you don't have a sound reason to do something you won't have the courage to continue.

Only one religious organization mandated all their members to make sure they read the Bible from cover to cover for a reason!

cutecommend:
Please read your Bible and people should read their Bibles.

Do you think someone who doesn't read the Bible can efficiently back up what he's saying with the Bible?

If he's also spiritual no wahala!

Paper is nothing technology has made the WORDS easily accessible for everyone to read what matters is having the information in your heart:

“This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel after that time,” declares the Lord. “I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. Jeremiah 31:33


So do you belong to the house of Israel by faith? Matthew 10:6


Well there's nothing wrong in using your paper Bible but carrying it for show isn't Christlike rather that's what Pharisees does back then in the first century they make a little purse made of leather and tie it to their head for everyone to see that they are religious Jesus doesn't carry scrolls about what he encouraged his disciples to do is having God's word in their hearts because we walk by faith not by sight {2Corinthians 5:7} so that it's through our attitude observers will know that we are Christians {Act 11:26} not by displaying paper Bible!

TruthinAction:
Church name is not the ticket to heaven. It is Christ.

Christ has a group which he calls his own spiritual family {Matthew 12:46-50} so if you don't know how to identify them in your own generation i'm sorry for you!

ichuka:
Dude
Christianity is not a religion haba.
Maybe that's where you are getting it wrong

If it's about each person with his own philosophy then why do you expect me to agree with your own?

ichuka:
You can't call the name of the church and Christianity is not a religion.
If you don't know, make u know today

If Christianity is about different people with different philosophy then why do you expect me to agree with your own?

Guy, you know nothing about Christianity that's why you keep worrying yourself seeing the difference between a real Bible student and a novice like you.
Goodbye!

AngelahFlo:
The subject of forgiveness is a broad topic. It cuts across all religions and religious groups. Thanks though. I'd have loved to read your angle

Sorry mine won't be of any use for your research so wait for your fellow worshipers they are coming tomorrow.

Farewell!

ichuka:
Dude
Mention one name of a church used by christains then and you are quoting the old testament.

The name "CHRISTIANS" is what people in the first century called just one religion all members of this religion have the same line of thought {1Corinthans 1:10} because their leader wanted it that way! John 17:22

So if you think over 48,000 different religions today with contradicting teachings and conflicting doctrines are all followers of that same man ọmọ you are deceiving yourself!

ichuka:
Mention the name of one church in the bible

There was just one religion claiming they are believers in Jesus but today you guys have over 48,000 different religions with contradicting teachings and conflicting doctrines all claiming believers in one man.
So that's the work of a lying spirit!

AngelahFlo:

You shouldn't be offended na. Just need your opinion however you wanna present it.

Offended is not the word after all you do have your fellow worshipers who share the same beliefs with you so wait and listen to them!

AngelahFlo:
I'll really love the input of my fellow Nairalanders. Wanna read your view concerning this touchy topic.
@MaxInDHouse
@QuinQ
@Jashub
@LordReed
@Kobojunkie
And the ladies too
Need your input

Listen to your fellow Jesus worshipers i have another God totally different from yours!

ichuka:
Lol
You funny die😂

Is this not the reason you're so ashamed to mention the name of your church?

ichuka:
After the Pentecost, does the apostle s and disciples have any governing body called Jehovah witness or is there a name given to a particular church they attend?

Guy you are listening to a lying spirit!

Immediately after Jesus' death the Jews thought that is the end of Jesus and his group so when they noticed them preaching and teaching about their master's resurrection they began calling them "The Way" {Act 9:2} but later people in Antioch started calling them by another group name "Christians" {Act 11:26} the true God kept the group name He wanted His worshipers to be called secret because Satan's agents will mix up with Jesus' disciples causing divisions and contradictions {Matthew 13:25} so it was in the 20th century after pure worship has been fully restored that God gave us a group name which no false religion could copy:

"JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES" Isaiah 65:15

So the other names has been misused to cause confusion throughout the world that's why you can't mention the name of any church yet you insist there is a spirit which i must believe OK where are your fellow believers?
It's just you alone if i should ask someone else the story will change yet all of you are claiming born again.

Ọmọ if you can't present any church practicing what you believe it means you are alone with that spirit!

ichuka:
So you don't believe Ur bible or leader again abi
U are looking for churches and spirits right?

My Bible says it's in the gathering of God's people that His spirit dwells and the leaders of my church are Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses.

Now mention the name of your own church so we can examine the spirit that you are talking about:

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. ‭1 John 4:1 NIV‬



How can we TEST YOUR SPIRIT to know it's not from Satan?

Singing is only to the glory of God and at times zealous worshipers feels honored being in the gathering of those who are singing praises to the most high God but when a worshiper has become unhappy with the situation he or she founds himself the zeal to sing such praises will no longer be there.

Take for instance when Jews were exiled to Babylon their new neighbors asked them to sing the song they often sing as praises to their God but the Jews couldn't raise their voices! Psalms 137:1-4

Lesson learned:

The only glory God gets from songs is when worshipers sings together heartily in appreciation of their God not when they are weighed down with anxiety that you expect them to be lifted up with songs!

Ken4Christ:
Where in the Bible did you read that Paul wrote to the Jews that they should stop paying tithe?

See how great this man was to whom Abraham, the family head, gave a tenth out of the best spoils. True, according to the Law, those of the sons of Leʹvi who receive their priestly office have a commandment to collect tithes from the people, that is, from their brothers, even though these are descendants of Abraham. But this man who did not trace his genealogy from them took tithes from Abraham and blessed the one who had the promises. Now it is undeniable that the lesser one is blessed by the greater.  And in the one case, it is men who are dying who receive tithes, but in the other case, it is someone of whom witness is given that he lives. And it could be said that even Leʹvi, who receives tithes, has paid tithes through Abraham, for he was still a future descendant of his forefather when Mel·chizʹe·dek met him. If, then, perfection was attainable through the Levitical priesthood (for it was a feature of the Law that was given to the people), what further need would there be for another priest to arise who is said to be in the manner of Mel·chizʹe·dek and not in the manner of Aaron? For since the priesthood is being changed, it becomes necessary to change the Law as well. Hebrews 7:4-12

Tithe was commanded only among the Israelites because of the job given the Levites inside the temple:
They were in charge of animal sacrifices, burning of incense and singing inside the tabernacle/temple.
So the remaining tribes who were given shares as inheritance must pay tenth parts of their gains for these services.
But in Christianity Christ is our temple so nobody is to be paid because freely we all received the privileges we have in Christ! Matthew 10:8 compare to Act 8:20

Image123:
A child of God does not commit adultery or do drugs. We roll differently.

Entertainment is another bait Satan uses to keep many under spiritual bondage think of any singer in ancient times including biblical David and Solomon who never got into sexual scandals.

Well the only true Christian organization don't promote singers rather we all sing to our God just as it was established in the Old temple worship where Levites sings to praise our God together.

Of course God's children are Satan's target so we don't play with fire!

sunky97:
Have you noticed how today’s generation is no longer hungry for God like before?

Jesus returned in the year 1914 and from that year he's been working on the one and only organization that's willing to make adjustments that's why only JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES are up and doing in what they believe till today.

The harvest has begun so that humble people are been gathered into one group while rebellious and disobedient ones are grouped according to their own choices! Matthew 13:30

What those religions claimed when they began decades ago has proved to be lies over the years! Matthew 7:15-20

So only one group (Jehovah's Witnesses) have remained steadfast, zealous and industrious in preaching and teaching till today the rest are tired of their deceptive revivals because it's not based on truth found in God's word.

Since the year 1914 that Jesus came and found no religion practicing Christianity the way he established {Luke 18:8} he's been restructuring the group known back then as International Bible Students Association because of this ongoing arrangement Satan jumped into action and began multiplying religions throughout the earth all claiming Christians performing great signs to deceive both world rulers and their subjects {Revelations 16:14} but Jesus continued with the International Bible Students Association until his father was satisfied with the restoration then Jesus' father gave this group a new name that will make it stand out at all times:

JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES! Isaiah 65:15

You will notice that even though there is no two churches that have agreed over the decades to merge under one leader all these religions are speaking abusively of Jehovah's Witnesses! Act 28:22

Yet only this group keeps working hard in preaching, teaching and baptizing people throughout the world to make them peace lovers! Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3

A sincere and honest hearted religionist in the first century said about the only true religion of his time:

So under the present circumstances, I say to you, do not meddle with these men, but let them alone. For if this scheme or this work is from men, it will be overthrown; but if it is from God, you will not be able to overthrow them. Otherwise, you may even be found fighters against God himself.” Act 5:38-38

So just as Jesus prophesied they will all get tired due to lawlessness in the hands of their leaders! Matthew 24:12

ichuka:
So the Holy Spirit is now a lying Spirit to you. He's in charge of these dispensation.

Please which of the countless religions claiming churches is this your so called "SPIRIT" working with?
Because there is contradictions among them all!

Baptism in the name of the father and the son and the holy Spirit!
