Oh....so you mean that no one can actually break free from a generational curse since no one can escape adamic sin right?
So Adamic sin is GENERATIONAL CURSES yet no one has broken free so that they no longer grow old and die.

Christianity Etc › Re: The Wahala Of The Thief And The Crucifixion by MaxInDHouse(m): 3:08pm On Jul 27, 2024
Hmmmmmmm Churchgoers don't understand this story but i will TEACH you.

Jesus is the promised Messiah who will rule the world {Isaiah 9:6; Daniel 2:44} so what the Bible writers meant by believing in Jesus as Lord is accepting his system of rule as he was teaching his listeners what he will not tolerate in his government.
You can accept Jesus as Lord by obeying what he says without anyone using weapons to force you.
Now this is what makes that thief an outstanding believer!

Others accepted Jesus because they saw him perform miracles and heard him teach {Matthew 16:16} but this thief knew Jesus did nothing wrong {Luke 23:40-41} and was accused right there by their wicked religious leaders that he claimed he's the Christ while he is hearing them {Matthew 27:40-43} Jesus is dying on the torture stake yet this man looked into his eyes and acknowledged Jesus as Lord!

Ọmọ begging a dying man not to forget him in his kingdom has said it all, it means this thief has accepted Jesus as Christ (Messiah) who will rule as king just as Isaiah and Daniel prophesied. What more does this man need to believe if not the promised king?

So Jesus gave his a Visa to Paradise where this thief will be helped to learn all the things he needs to know about everlasting life during the 1,000 years reign under the kingdom of Christ! smiley

Really? Why did he leave?
Is it because of the thousands of child abuse scandals your leaders work tirelessly to cover up?
Use your God's given brains to reason nah!

How many child has been abused by Jehovah's Witnesses in your own neighborhood?

Why can't you people reason intelligently?

Muslim terrorists are terrorizing people and it is affecting all the people in all countries but in this case those accusing this group are former members of the same group and there has never been a time one child who is not a JW child is molested by a JW.

Are you saying those molesters never feel like doing it with any other child except Jehovah's Witnesses children?

Well read the Bible book of Exodus 23:1-2 try to meditate thoroughly on the verses because Jesus said his true followers will be accused as evildoers even when you don't have evidence against them.

I can't accuse anyone when the story doesn't happen within my neighborhood but when it comes to raping of females it's reported in all the countries around the world that terrorists are doing it to people indiscriminately but in this case something is reported only within a group and by ex-members.

Abeg something is fishy.

As for Kumuyi he was disfellowshiped from the JW group that's why everything he believes goes in like with JW teachings. Have you ever wondered why he told his church members to stop using TV in the early 80s?
Well it's what Jehovah's Witnesses said that year in their publications about the danger of TV watching for children which will later lead to disasters in later times.
Children born that period are terrorizing the world today using guns and violence to achieve whatever they want those things they learned in TV watching back in the late 70s/ early 80s. undecided

paxonel:
So shall we ever be with the Lord in the clouds?
Can humans live in the clouds?
Paul and other BORN AGAIN Christians will be turned into spirits by the time Jesus return to take them to heaven. They are not going there with human bodies that's why Jesus said they will not get married {Luke 20:34-36} they have to die first but unlike other righteous servants of God that will be resurrected as humans who are to remain in their graves until they are brought back to life on earth the BORN AGAIN Christians will move in two sets the first set will resurrect as spirits but unlike Jesus who was visible only to his disciples for them to know he has been resurrected.
This is what Jehovah's Witnesses have been saying but misinformed churchgoers are criticizing us Jesus resurrected as a spirit not with fleshy body otherwise everyone supposed to see him.
So no BORN AGAIN Christian will be visible when they're resurrected, the first set who has been in their graves before Jesus returned will be raised as spirits but those still living among them will be transformed at death when each one die!

MindHacker9009:
Your believers in Jesus don't even know what they believe. You are the one throwing tantrums because your hatred for the Jews has been embedded in you from your former religion and you were quick to embrace your current organisation as you have the invented Jesus Christ as a new tool to make you continue to hate the Jews. You can as well say too that Africans lost their land and temples and were taken away during the slave trade because they did not believe in the only begotten Son of their African God same way the Jews lost their land and were taken away from their land two thousand years ago by the Roman empire who invented your Jesus Christ to mock the Jews.
Do you think it's only Jews that's occupying the land of Israel today? cheesy

Ọmọ the occupants of that land aren't Jews by birth rather people from different lands who settled there with different religions so the ongoing wars today has nothing to do with religion rather it's political there are more Muslims in Israel than those claiming Christians! smiley
Christianity Etc › Re: JW 028 Lazarus And The Rich Man Who Has Five Brothers by MaxInDHouse(op):
The generation of the rich man are rich in that they often have special privileges that others don't have and they do participate in feeding others information regarding sacred service to God making them spiritually rich.

Let's take Cain for instance, he is the first born of the first human couple so he had gained a lot of knowledge about the true God while growing up that's why the scriptures could say:

After some time, Cain brought some fruits of the land as an offering to Jehovah. But Abel brought some firstlings of his flock, including their fat. While Jehovah looked with favor on Abel and on his offering, Genesis 4:3-4

Surely Abel learned how to render sacred service to God from his senior brother since their parents have turned their backs on God but when God preferred Abel's sacred service Cain became really angry.
WHY?
Well he felt God shouldn't have chosen Abel's sacrifice above his own after all he came into service before Abel thereby setting standards for God on how worship should be approved instead of humbly accepting counsel he decided to kill his brother. Genesis 4:6-8

This is the attitude of all the brothers of the rich man and they don't want to be on the same level with others keeping one common line of thought instead they want to be celebrated as the first all the times.
In Jesus' day the third generation of apostates looked down on their fellow Jews claiming they are not on the same level like other Jews even though they are all worshiping in the same temple but does this spirit have any impact on the generation of Lazarus?

Listen to what the scriptures say about Moses:

Then Joshua the son of Nun, the minister of Moses from his youth, responded and said: “My lord Moses, restrain them!” But Moses said to him: “Are you jealous for me? No, I wish that all of Jehovah’s people were prophets and that Jehovah would put his spirit on them!” Numbers 11:28-29

So the generation of Lazarus are ever humble {Numbers 12:3} and willing to serve alongside their brothers as fellow believers wuth the same line of thought! Luke 17:10

But the generation of the rich man are arrogant the intention of their heart is to rule over others!
Note what attracted Adam and Eve in Satan's proposal to them before they joined him in his rebellion against God's sovereignty:

".....You will be like God....." Genesis 3:5

The Gods don't take instructions from anyone rather they give and unlike humble ones who are willing to serve alongside their brothers and sisters the generation of apostates wants to be on their own each viewing himself as a God instead of being commoners with others.

Please read comments from few generations of apostates in our day:

oteneaaron:
Not just JW, there is a strand of Mind Control and subtle Cult related actions in EVERY religion on earth right now. You think you're safe where you at? Look again bruh!! lipsrsealed lipsrsealed
Templee333:
if i choose to be an atheist does it concern u? If it pains u stop paying my school fees & cut off my feeding & outfits allowances.
They will not agree to worship alongside their fellow humans rather they want to set their own standards like the one speaking below:

For God knows that in the very day you eat from it, your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, knowing good and bad. Genesis 3:5

So to them it's wrong to be on the same page with common believers but then why are they always trying to rich out to others is they're not ready to be submissive under the same rules with others?

Jesus answered:

"You (Apostates) are from your father the Devil, and you wish to do the desires of your father. That one was a murderer when he began, and he did not stand fast in the truth, because truth is not in him. When he speaks the lie, he speaks according to his own disposition, because he is a liar and the father of the lie" John 8:44

Each of them just wants to stay on his personal lane only to set standards for others but they will never ever agree to be submissive under the same line of thought with anyone! smiley

The laws Jesus broke were two commandments you shall not steal and you shall not covet your neighbour's grain!
What laws did Muhammad broke from your own JW Bible sir? grin
According to God's word any Israelite who eats grains inside the field due to hunger is not stealing and it's stated that stealing according to God's word is taking the grains out of the field.
Muhammad committed a lot of offense going by the laws of God!

• Muhammad is not a descendant of Jacob the last three names of the patriarchs {Genesis 3:15} mentioned in line with prophethood so he is a fraud.
• Muhammad never performed any miracle to show that he was sent by the same God of Israel yet he wants to prove he was sent by the God who equipped Moses with powerful signs to prove God's backing.
• Muhammad started fighting and killing the Arabs who has been worshipers of idols all their lives claiming they should worship only one God something those people never knew all their lives.
• Muhammad married a woman old enough to be his mother thereby laying down a legacy that no one not even you will welcome in your family. Àbí can you welcome a woman of 40 years as wife for your 25 years old Son?
• Muhammad failed to control his libido, slept with the wife of his adopted son and claimed God approved it.
• Muhammad established a black stone as God in Mecca and forced the people to start WORSHIPING it something that's against the laws of the God he claims to represent.
• Muhammad started a false religion with no useful message for mankind leading billions of people into killing one another even while they are all claiming worshipers of some Allah, something the true God of Israel detests. You must love your neighbor is a commandment for those claiming brothers and sisters within the same faith but Muhammad's religion failed to maintain love and peace among worshipers of his Allah.

I can go on and on so don't even go there.
The grains Jesus and his disciples picked belongs to an Israelite who can never ever accuse them of stealing because what they're doing is approved by their God! smiley

So after throwing tantrums up and down the forum expecting right thinking people to engage you in fruitless arguments you now feel like direct attack on believers in Jesus.

Well the first time the Jews tried it they lost the only city they were using to boast including the temple to a pagan nation.
Just of recent the occupants tried it again only to start facing attacks from all corners though God sent them a warning message through a crow that destroyed their national flag.


So the name "Jesus" will continue to hunt that nation everywhere they go that's why they are of no value with their stiff-neckedness throughout the world today.
As for you continue crying all over Nairaland nothing will stop the mentioning of the name "Jesus" the only begotten Son of God! smiley

Aemmyjah:
Amazing thread
Thank you OP
Satan established false religions everywhere in order to hinder sincere individuals from having to know the truth so they feel like they can practice any religion of their choice as long as "GOD" is mentioned but the fact remains that Satan can be intelligent and smart but he can never ever be wise enough to block the way to salvation {Matthew 16:18b} each religion will claim one thing or another trying to condemn another which means God will not approve all religions and many adherents will perish for their failure to find out the truth about God wit means even though someone claims to believe oml God or claims Christian it is not sure for such an individual.

What really baffles me now is why they are all shying away from asking:
"Which of all these religions with contradicting teachings and conflicting doctrines belongs to God?"
Someone like this johnw47 guy welcomes all as if they're all pleasing to his own god except Jehovah's Witnesses.
He has no issues with:
• oteneaaron who said "Jesus is a myth"
• Courz who said "Jehovah is a demon"
• Templee33 who said the Bible is false.
But he is ready to continue criticizing Jehovah's Witnesses as long as the person agrees with the teachings of the one and only organization of peace loving worshipers.

Talking about people deceiving themselves and being deceived {2Timothy 3:13} he really fits into that description that's why i often ignore him though he already admitted that when it comes to handling God's word he can't withstand JWs that's why he's just throwing tantrums up and down he will never ever face you in a biblical debate since he is aware of his limitations that he only has few quotes which he doesn't ever know the practical applications! smiley

Well from His viewpoint neither the sower or the one eating owns the land or grains that was planted nor do they have power to make it grow so it's the One who has all the power to give mankind life, grains, land, rain and sunshine who later said if someone is hungry he or she could pluck grains enough to satisfy his or her appetite within the land of Israel!
To God the person claiming ownership of the grain field is guilty of blood if his neighbor should die of hunger while he is storing grains for money!

Imagine someone watched his fellow believer suffer and die of hunger while he is stockpiling food for sale only to start starving himself claiming he is fasting for God! smiley

AntiChristian:
I get mouth to talk o!
I've told you several times that you surely have the zeal to TALK about God but unfortunately Islam is not the right place for you.

Take preaching for instance, in ancient times when people do talk about God to their neighbors what makes it appropriate back then?

Well it's because those gods are like rulers and the ancient kings also claim to be demigods in their own territories so it makes sense for the kings and gods to send town criers to their subjects/worshipers regarding informations they have for them that's why it is recorded in the Bible that prophets back in ancient Israel used to go into their streets, villages, towns and cities preaching aloud everywhere they go. From the time of Moses till the day of John the baptist Prophets do preach aloud in Streets because all passersby are familiar with the God or king whose message the criers or prophets brought to them.
Here in Africa our traditional rulers and priests of our gods does the same sending town criers to inform the people of whatever is imminent.

But by the time Jesus of Nazareth introduced Christianity it was totally a different story as he will not shout in the streets disturbing passersby {Matthew 12:19} rather he was going to meet people in their homes to speak with them one on one.

Why the difference?

Because by the time Jesus walked the earth it wasn't one God that inhabitants of Jerusalem worshiped anymore. There were Roman governors living within Judea and mixed tribes under the Roman empire lives everywhere so shouting in the streets about a God that's not familiar with all passersby makes no sense anymore, that's why Jesus told his disciples to visit only Jews in their homes as they will easily understand what these preachers are doing unlike people who don't have any business with the God of the Jews. Matthew 10:6

What about our time?
Does it make sense shouting in the streets?

Well it's totally inappropriate because within our neighborhood there are Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, Traditionalists, Atheists, Agnostics, Judaists and of course members of Christendom churches all claiming they're intelligent people. So imagine an individual in your street shouting and telling people that they will perish not because they broke any societal laws but due to having a different view regarding sacred service to God. huh


So what Jesus of Nazareth introduced that day remains the best ever in talking about God as you approach your neighbor, introduce yourself and strike a conversation with him or her about what God requires of mankind. This will make the serenity appealing as your listener will feel at home asking you questions and you also responding in a neighborly manner even if both of you disagree on views the cordiality can't end just like that rather you will learn about your neighbor's dos and donts with a view to his beliefs while he also learn about yours hence both of you can relate peacefully after knowing what each other believes.

But what if you stand in your mosque and with a megaphone start throwing tantrums against your neighbors regarding their beliefs and they also does the same to you in their churches how easily do you think peace could be achieved?

No wonder the Bible referred to Jesus as the world's most wonderful counselor of all time! Isaiah 9:6

I really love your zeal but to be frank with you there is nothing positive that could be achieved in speaking abusively about your neighbor's beliefs neither will God judge them for speaking against yours! smiley

One fine quality i have learned from the true Christians (Jehovah's Witnesses) is how they're happy to be accused by genuine and sincere individuals who wants to know the reason behind their faith in the God of their choice, it gives them the opportunity to bear thorough witness about the true God in a loving way! 1Peter 3:13-15

So it's their zeal, calmness and boldness when speaking about their God {Matthew 7:28-29} that amazes me and i just can't deny the fact that they are the true followers of Christ that's why i abandoned Islam to become one of them today.

After few discussions on faith in the Bible God these are the comments of a Nairalander about my attitude:

So just as Jesus calmly addressed a Jews who felt nothing good could come out of Jesus' place of residence {John 1:46} true Christians were taught by Christ Jesus to be wise as serpents and harmless as doves {Matthew 10:16} it will go a long way in convincing sincere and honest hearted individuals that we are the students {Act 1:8} taught by the world's most wonderful counselor of all time {Isaiah 9:6} Jesus of Nazareth!
Christianity Etc › Re: Books That Exist In Scripture That Are In Heaven. by MaxInDHouse(m): 4:50am On Jul 26, 2024
Books are written or composed by authors so it means a book could be likened to what someone has in mind penned down in a jotter and it could be passed on to others.

The book of life isn't a literal book rather God's memory where lots of information are kept.

In his sermon on the mount Jesus said:

"the hairs of your head are all numbered" Matthew 10:30

This means that when a character is stored in God's memory it's like writing down all the features of his or her body including the numbers of hairs in his or her head.

So during resurrection all those people whose life glorified God will be brought back to life just as they were before their death but with perfect human bodies no more deformities if they had before their death. Job 14:13-15

May you have PEACE!

So what is stealing?
What is covetousness of neighbors property?
Stealing according to God's commandments in that context is what you took and while going it's discovered in your possession not what you eat to survive.
Note what that law says:

"If you enter your neighbor’s vineyard, you may eat enough grapes to satisfy your appetite, but you should not put any in your container." Deuteronomy 23:24

Note the three points:

• Neighbor's vineyard
• Eat enough grapes to satisfy your appetite
• You should not put any in your container

So from the standpoint of the God of Israel it's the grapes found in your possession on your way out of your neighbor's vineyard that's stealing! undecided
