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." Matthew 11:11

Are those prophets born of women?
If so what makes them greater than John son of Elizabeth (a woman)? undecided

Does it matter? the truth of the matter is the persistence of "ERROR".
After all contradictions are errors so also are translational errors🤨.
Both are errors
You subscribe to 50,000 he subscribes to a few.
Whose is far worse? 🤨
Or has logic fled from you too?
The contradictions came from inspired writers or translators? smiley

We are talking about contradictions and not translation errors.
I don't know why some can't just see things as it is.

CONTRADICTIONS

TRANSLATION ERROR

How does the two correlates?

A king speaks to his people in s language they all understood but later translators wanted to convey the message to people who don't understand that language so contradictions arises.

Is it the King that contradicted himself or the translators that erred? smiley

Was that what Jesus meant that nobody qualified for God's kingdom.....is that also what u believe that except people like you and ur sect, then nobody is qualified to enter heaven in old testament? Jesus never meant so..okay?
As a matter of fact when Jesus resurrected, many who died also resurrected with him..as written in the gospel
And Daniel was deem worthy to enter heaven in last verse of book of Daniels....so what's ur point
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. Matthew 11:11

So the question is are people before John the baptist qualified for God's Kingdom since Jesus said the least person in there is greater than John?

It's just a YES or NO response then you can explain later! undecided

It's not my statement rather it's Jesus' own words! Matthew 11:11-12

Christianity Etc › Re: Is It Adultery If A Christian Bachelor Marries Two Women Or Virgins At A Time? by MaxInDHouse(m): 2:00pm On Feb 27, 2025
Well i hate blind arguments.

John is not yet qualified for everlasting life not until he practice what Jesus taught and that affects all those who lived before him! Matthew 11:12

So they will be resurrected on planet earth to learn from Christians who aren't part of Christ's corulers before they can qualify for everlasting life it's whatever each of them decides to do after learning about Christ that will be the basis for their judgment whether they will be counted worthy of everlasting life or not!

All old testament prophet who testified or prophesied of Christ did that through the Spirit of CHRIST
That what the scriptures makes me understand. And Peter Said same thing
Are you saying all prophets who testified or prophesied of Christ were born of the spirit?
If so how come John who prepared the way and also prophesied and testified about Christ is not qualified to be one of them? huh

Simple, those born of women are carnally born
While those in the kingdom of God are all born of the Spirit.

But we can also dig deeper into what Jesus was actually teaching in Matthew 11 that brought about that statement in verse 11 😃

1. Why did God originally form the woman?

2. Who was Jesus quoting God or Moses, two shall become one flesh?

3. Did God ever tell David he could take any or another woman and not his "neighbor's" wife?

4. Did God ever punish anyone for having more than one wife?

Simple questions if you actually know what is written in the scriptures
1. To complement the man so that both can live forever as lovebirds.

2. Moses has not even been born when God made that statement in Eden so Jesus quoted God with whom he was in the beginning.

3. David practiced what other men of his time do but in God's law he warned kings against marrying multiple wives. Deuteronomy 17:15-16

4. No God gave them freewill to experience things for themselves was given.

They have not accepted the teachings of Jesus but didn't Moses and Elijah appear to Jesus on the mount of transfiguration.
Please expatiate on what Jesus said at Matthew 11:11 because there is a point Jesus made there that needed to be cleared:

"Truly I say to you, among those born of women (from righteous Abel) there has not been raised up anyone greater than John the Baptist, but a lesser person in the Kingdom (someone who is considered smallest) of the heavens is greater than he is"

You need to state when polygamy stopped being permitted and who brought a stop to it?
This is why i always point to my source of guidance regarding scriptural knowledge: jw.org

I often do this to alert whoever i'm chatting with to know what to expect from Jehovah's Witnesses for instance many often come here saying Jehovah's Witnesses will never agree to give their daughter's hand in marriage to someone who is not a JW neither are we going to approve for our son to marry a female who is not a JW.

I hope you now know that we strictly hold on to the same line of thought among us.

As for polygamy it's a crime in our midst to the extent that you can never ever be one of us of you're a polygamist no one will consider your baptism no matter how long you've been with us. Thousands out there have not been baptized after studying the Bible with us for decades even though many thought they are members of Jehovah's Witnesses because they attends our meetings yet they are not baptized which disqualifies such ones from any privilege among us! 1Timothy 3:2; Titus 1:6

Is it adultery if a Christian bachelor marries two women or virgins at a time?

I know this question came as a result of considering how most people you view as men of God frown at polygamy.

Though they only feel it's wrong but they don't know how to expatiate using God's word. I remember discussing with one of my colleagues who is a pastor in one of the churches of Christendom and how he really thanked me for sharing my own views using the scriptures.

Please don't be upset this is just what we Jehovah's Witnesses believe but since your pastor may not believe the same thing do whatever pleases you! undecided

.The Muslim comment is even more reasonable than the self-righteousness u been trying to do spinning the scriptures to judge every man with two wives..which Jesus never did...not even the apostles ......
To judge? huh

Please nobody is judging anybody here!

You asked for a Christian view regarding polygamy and i showed you what early Christians practiced in view of Paradise in their hearts.

So this is not about judging because they didn't judge anyone who is already married into polygamous family all they did is to deprive such ones from holding a position in the Christian congregation which no sane individual will like to thread such path after seeing what the Apostles are doing to polygamists.

Please make use of what they practiced back then and decide for yourself what you will do. Galatians 6:5 smiley

Q FreeSpirited

Here is what a Muslim has to say about the topic you raised.

AbuTwins:
Even in Jesus time there were plural marriages and Jesus for once never spoke against it.
You guys don let oyinbo monogamy enter your brain! What is clear is that God made laws for Polygamy!
God permitted polygamy!
Moses, Abraham, Jacob, Lamech, Gideon, David, Solomon, etc were all Polygamous! And someone said they were not Christians! How many Prophets were Christian in the Bible? None! So that's a shut up! And to the one flipping the topic over making women marry two men! Show us where such is available and permitted by Jehovah in the Bible? Probably Sarah married Laban with Abraham in the NWT they use!
So it's a free world, choose wisely. 1Thessalonians 5:21

Do have a wonderful day!

More than one wife can present issues at home and distraction.
Well Jesus said:
"If, now, your right eye is making you stumble, tear it out and throw it away from you. For it is better for you to lose one of your members than for your whole body to be pitched into Ge·henʹna" Matthew 5:29

So before the completion of the Bible God's servants knew partially what righteousness means because they see things faintly {1Corinthians 13:9} but after the Bible has been completed {1Corinthians 13:10} we make use of this book for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness, so that the man of God may be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work. 2Timothy 3:16-17

So a Christian must always be a man of God who is fully competent and completely equipped for all good works.

Your should be laughing at your folly and ignorance but you think you are are making good impression
God is a Spirit. Spirit is like Air everywhere. It is in your bible
Their is no house that can contain him so he dwells in no organization or religion. Its in your bible
Your body is the temple of God and where he dwells meaning God is in you. It is in your bible
Your own bible expose your lies. Your Jehovah is not all knowing hehehe. Your bible says God is a spirit which means he can be anywhere but you said he is not Omni present. The person you are quoting even disagree with you but you aee picking one of his comments to make to lift yourself up.All these shows your question made no sense and your bible expose your lies more.
