We are aware some of them attend our meeting and convention
It saddens me that someone will hear the encouraging talks, demonstrations but he's not moved at all. It's the local announcement they want to hear if it's something they can run to social media and wail. How will someone attend 3 day convention and not gain anything?
In 2021 or 2022, one of them said that we are homophobic cos of the dramatization where a teacher ask one of our sister 'I suppose you have gay members in your church' and she said No, we don't. The stupid was using it to show the LGBT community that we don't consider their sexuality.
In some places, on convention days, they stand close to where we have assemblies and carry their placards and say nonsense against us as we try to enter the assembly hall or stadium... This people are just mad for nothing... How will someone leave his house to disturb people going to convention

My brother Satan is using POLITICS to recruit agents like him just as he used it to make the Pharisees and Sadducees in Jesus' day his children! John 8:44

Below thread on politics is entitled:

'Let the nations die so that humanity may live'

https://www.nairaland.com/8016566/let-nations-die-humanity-may/2#128713103

This is what achorladey has in mind to say as to the killings of his neighbours due to politics.

achorladey:
The way to go in order to stop the lazy governors from being lazy and really hold them responsible for their actions and inactions, then stop the overbloated representatives from milking this country dry.

Yet God's organization that's preaching against politics he would spend all his time criticizing us but then he is in support of KILLING those in political offices! Luke 6:45

Aemmyjah:
Don't mind him
We will never go to war
It's that simple
Stupid Apostate trying to tell us what to do
Let him go and ask Jesus and his disciples why they did not fight battles then since they were serving Jehovah of armies

If this one lived during the time Jesus and his first century disciples walked the earth he will surely be among those persecuting them for preaching to Jews that Jehovah has sent His only begotten Son to stop us from going to war against our neighbors.
But today since Jesus and his first century disciples aren't here now he wants to speak for them that they didn't go to war because they have a special work to do which doesn't concern those claiming Christians today!

Aemmyjah:
Ignore him
He's of no use to anyone on nairaland
Honestly, his condition is very shameful and pitiable
According to him, his talk was like CO or GB. He could handle parts well... He can even add that he's the one that selected the governing body members sef... He must have had good talent right and was appreciated in the congregation... Now what is he doing? He's peddling his madness all over Nairaland... All these experiences just convince me that this is the Way... It's better not to even know Jehovah and walk in ignorance than to know him and leave him.
In my former church, I was a drummer, chorister, usher and Pastor's favorite since I assisted him with chores but my heart was far away from God and I was determined I'll stop going to any church once I enter school. How will I enjoy worshiping a God that causes suffering? I prayed to God to help me find the truth if it truly exists cos to me, all religions are purely not from him and he's helped me...
In my congregation, I do receive positive comments too but it does not go to my head and I like it that way cos it helps me stay humble. I don't spend time on my former religion but I am actively working on helping people spiritually and the results, I only thank Jehovah...

That guy claiming to have talent is now basically useless and we can all see that. He has no religion to mention, he's not sharing anything upbuilding than attack us... Once a man has been handed over to Satan, Satan uses him seriously... Not one person has received any encouraging, insightful comments from his regarding the Bible. Either all he said he did was a lie or Satan has wiped it all away from him...
Like Stephen Lett says, Talent without modesty is bad... We thank Jehovah and the elders who did not waste time to expel the wicked one from the congregation... Ask him if the cong has stopped operating since his expulsion... NONSENSE

Don't be surprised that he still attends meetings regularly just to pick one or two things to use against God's organization when he comes to chat with his fellow atheists on Nairaland!

Aemmyjah:
We are following the examples of Jesus Christ and the first century Christians. If you like, go and fight and kill unasef... What we are doing is something the world cannot do. There's no reference that Jesus fought or his disciples...
A whole epistle of nonsense is what you have written. Even in christendom, they are always criticized for their support in wars in the spirit of nationalism, ethnicity too and politics. We are on part of the world and we don't do such nonsense. If you want to carry gun and fight, you are free...

They can go to war against their fellow believers and kill one another while preaching and teaching to carry the message of peace and hope to all the nations of the world {Matthew 28:19-20} after all they are doing miracles in their churches a sign that their god supports whatever they do afterwards even when they go to war against their neighbours! Matthew 7:21-23

Ọmọ these are people claiming they are Bible Scholars o, i wonder how scholars can't have the same line of thought {John 17:22; Ephesians 4:3} yet claiming they have the same teacher {Matthew 23:8} and later they will carry weapons against themselves due to racism engineered by politics to kill not just unbelievers o but their own fellow believers whom their supposed teacher referred to as their brothers in faith! Matthew 12:46-50 compare to 23:8

achorladey:
Religious organization preach SELF DEFENSE,

And that should includes joining thousands for military training to go and kill your supposed fellow believers shey? Isaiah 2:4
Then in what way do you apply the LOVE Jesus commanded his disciples to have for their enemies? Luke 6:27-28

achorladey:
Religious organization preach SELF DEFENSE,

every nation has the right and military formation to do so. Allow Jehovah to support both side.[/quote]Atheist! Your own god will support it's beloved worshipers to go to war against themselves while telling them to love themselves shey?

“‘You must not take vengeance nor hold a grudge against the sons of your people, and you must love your fellow man as yourself. I am Jehovah. Leviticus 19:18

With the above your own god doesn't recognize your fellow believers as your own people shey? Matthew 12:46-50

achorladey:
They are God's ministers against wrongdoers. Na Jehovah give them swords to carry. Go read am for Romans 13: 1-5

Atheist!
When Israelites wanted to apply God's law that says a rapist should be punished and the men of Benjamin refused to hand over the rapists in their midst instead of Israelites to go and ask God for what to do they picked up weapons against the Benjaminites and Jehovah stepped aside without supporting any side.
WHY?
Because it's wrong to form battle line against our fellow believers!
We must know whose side Jehovah is and not rely on our weapons or number! Judges 20:35

At Romans 13:1-5 God's word made it clear to Jehovah's Witnesses that before God's kingdom comes Satan and his agents must rule and maintain laws based on whatever they have decreed we must make sure we obey their rules and stay clear off their lanes because they have the right to punish whoever stands against their orders. When the kingdom of our God comes they will all be wiped away! Daniel 2:44

Your arrogance can never ever change that!

Aemmyjah:
Don't mind yeye Kimco

Back then when i was trying to reshape his thoughts on what the scriptures teaches he was playing smart now where is that hopeless beliefs he was arguing for?
In the trash bin.
And today he's against the Bible instead of working on his understanding of God's word.
What really baffles me at times is the way they think because a knife has its purpose but when the one handling it fails to use it in the right way he or she will get cut and the next thing they will do is saying the knife is useless!

Sand2022:
You're free to have a different opinion. But don't be quick to forget that the Jews, who were God's people fought wars. As at the time they were fighting wars, God's law still stated that they should love their neighbors as themselves. In fact Jews even fought fellow Jews at times in war. While I personally don't like wars, our wish can't be God's command.

So when people fight wars in ancient Israel was God supporting both sides?

Funny atheists claiming believers.

Through Jesus' teachings believers have become sons of God {John 1:11-12} therefore since Israelites fought wars in ancient times the sons of God bought with the blood of His Son can also engage in wars against one another to kill their fellow believers shey?

Remember that God's people must take permission from Him before going to wars which means they must pray to Him so which side was He, both sides?

achorladey:
In summary what makes Jehovah’s witnesses the only one practicing true religion is the DECREE of the governing body of Jehovah’s Witnesses that members are not allowed to go to war they are not the true religion based on what the Bible says

At least if all people are obeying the DECREE of the GOVERNING BODY speedy increase of widows and orphans will not be {James 1:27} as there won't be any reason to raise weapons against your neighbour when you believe in the same SUPREME BEING! John 13:34-35

You can't change that with all your arrogance!

The go... of all possibilities.

Aemmyjah:
You're deceiving yourself over something you know it's not true

My brother, kimco is just deceiving himself after falling into the hands of ATHEISM.

When they lack wisdom the next thing is looking for ways to justify their beliefs instead of asking whether their beliefs is true or false.

Sand2022:
Many churches practice what Jesus taught today.
Preaching:
Pentecostals, Evangelicals, Catholics, JWs, Mormons, Waldenses etc preach.

Jesus commanded his disciples not to hate one another {John 13:34} to the point where they will have to raise weapons against one another because Satan is the one behind killings among people who professed the same faith {John 8:44} he also prayed that they should have the same line of thought {John 17:22 compared to 1 Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:3} he also warned them not to go about with religious titles {Matthew 23:10} and they should not be part of Satan's world {John 17:14-16} because in Satan's world hatred and killings is what will characterize them during the end time! Revelations 6:3-4

So i totally disagree with you it's either you present one religious group having the same belief globally as Jesus taught and prayed for his disciples to be or you don't have the answer. Over 41,000 different religions with contracting teachings and conflicting doctrines can't be said to be practicing what one person taught that is broad daylight scam!

gohf:
Being under a son of God is dominion, being a wife to a child of the devil can be oppression.

I love this post because it revealed the secret behind oppression of females who got married to unbelievers.

After initiating her husband to become a rebel against God's decree God told Eve:

“I will greatly increase the pain of your pregnancy; in pain you will give birth to children, and your longing will be for your husband, and he will dominate you.” Genesis 3:16

Of course it's ungodly men who have become oppressors over their own wives true servants of God love, respect, cherish and support their own wives in doing God's will!

PulsingPurple:
Shame on you for editing the other parts of my reply. I'm polite with everyone IN GENERAL doesn't mean I'm polite with ABSOLUTELY everyone. Of course you're the lucky exception. You're the scapegoat.

Sorry it's obvious i don't know the meaning of "EVERYONE IN GENERAL" but now that you've explained i got it perfectly that it doesn't really mean everyone ABSOLUTELY.
Thanks!

Sand2022:
The true religion is the one sanctioned by God or His agent.

God formed a means of worship during the time of the Israelites when He chose them as His special people. This however, does not mean that others elsewhere can't chose to serve God. Job and the community he lived in served God in Uz while the Jews were serving the same God in Egypt and also in Mount Sinai and later in Canaan. I would write an article on this later.

Later however, Jesus showed that what the Father is looking out for is those that will serve Him in spirit and truth. That being the case, religion is secondary to the worship of God. What is essential is worshiping him by means of his son Jesus. Faith in Jesus is the key, not the name of your church.

Currently the church is living in a period Jesus described as the Weed and the Wheat period. (Matt 13) Jesus says that both will grow TOGETHER until the harvest. JW teach that this period has passed and that they are the storehouse where the wheat is gathered. In a later article, I will show what point they are missing out in there conclusions. We are living in a period that the weed and the wheat grow together. During the harvest, when the son of man will come towards the end of the world, he will do the separating of the wheat and the weed, then he will burn up the weed. This hasn't happened yet. So if you're true to God and served Him faithfully, He is seeing you. When that time reach, He will separate you for salvation. If you're not serving in spirit and truth, you will be punished.

Does that mean that you just follow any denomination that profess faith in Christ? No. God has his ordained Stewards, what JWs call faithful and discreet slave. Today, this slave is properly a class of GOs who God divinely/supernaturally contacted for a Ministry, not the 9 men in Warwick. If Jehovah didn't contact you nor divinely ordain you for a ministry and your ministry is not ordained by one who is God's divinely ordained servant, you are operating a human organization. Your organization have no approval from God. However, while that is condemnable, it is still good and best to let God have the final say on those issues. But it is dangerous to form a group that God didn't divinely approve, more especially when the group says that they are the ONLY ones God is using. This is very dangerous because they will put you against the true servants whom God has divinely ordained, unless of course, you don't follow the group leaders unscriptural directions, but approve and obey God's divinely ordained servants.

So which religion or church is practicing what Jesus taught today?

PulsingPurple:
Maybe when you go through my conversations online, you'll see that I'm polite with everyone in general.

Your comments on the first page of this thread truly shows how POLITE you are with everyone in general!

Despite all their wailing and blackmailing the lady PulsingPurple still wants my contribution in her thread, just look at the screenshot below, if she truly believes that Maximus has nothing tangible to say about the truth would she have replied with "YES please" ?
So they're all deceiving themselves each of them know in their hearts that they're fighting against the truth!

Verbtips:
got it thanks for the explanation

You're welcome.

God created the woman to compliment the creature made in his image {Genesis 2:18} so both gender compliments each other.
But then when talking about decision-making one of the two must take the lead that's why God instructed that the man stands as the head {1Corinthians 11:3} therefore during worship just as Jesus takes the lead the man must lead while women remain silent {1Corinthians 14:34-35; 1Timothy 2:11-12} unless there is no qualified male then a qualified female will lead but her head must be covered with cloth otherwise the angel of Jehovah will be irritated {1Corinthians 11:10} that's why God never allowed female priest or highpriest and Jesus never chose a female to be one of the apostles.

OZUO

Please let me handle them, they will continue wailing as the truth is hurting them badly. You'll notice that they're all trying cheap blackmail that will distract gullible followers who get easily carried away with whatever the crowd are saying instead of considering the intention of each person that comes together to form a team. Exodus 23:1-2
So allow them to continue wailing a thousand times ten thousand of hypocrites can't stop me from delivering my message they can only cry but to stop me all they need is to present a better performing group than JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES.

badboyTee:
go fork yourself max

Thanks for revealing your identity!

Verbtips:
you said the four letter words was abrev by the hebrew in stead of writing it full but,when i was studing the said it is the name of GOD
and they did not told me it was abrev by the hebrews

The four letters are consonants (YHWH) vowels must be added in between to make it's pronunciation easy.
For instance the name 'Zechariah' is easy to pronounce because vowels were added but what if only the consonants ZCHRH is what we have how easy do you think we can pronounce that?
So the four Hebrew letters YHWH stands for God's name but the vowels is what nobody knows till today that's why some scholars added A & E to make it easy for pronunciation YAHWEH and it's English transliterations JHVH became JEHOVAH.

PulsingPurple:
Well well... What do I know...

The above thread is interesting do you want everyone to make a contribution?

John W GIBBERISH . .

Oh brother please allow them to comment at least any reasonable, honest hearted and sincere follower can see that none of them tried to address the topic of discussion rather they're all after the one who asked the questions.

That's enough for me!

Verbtips:
thanks for the correction but what am trying to say is that i was told that is the name of GOD AND NOT AREV.TED

Please i don't get the highlighted clearly!

So why are God's people admonished to obey if such order appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not?

JEHOVAH said during the endtime the sun will be darkened and the moon will turn to blood {Joel 2:31} but everyone who calls on the name of Jehovah will be saved! Joel 2:32

But what does sun turned out to darkness and moon turn to blood means?

Well that's telling us what will happen during the endtime as there won't be any direct info from God to mankind and all what faithful servants of God have to rely upon is what has been written in the scriptures then is the time of TEST because only humility with strong faith can save anyone at that time {Zephaniah 2:2-3} then is the time to prove our love for the God of our salvation by readiness to bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things and endures all things. 1Corinthians 13:7

The experience of ancient servants of God will help us to remain faithful {Hebrews 12:1} and obedient to the group Jesus is using {Matthew 24:45} they never saw everything clearly yet they put faith in the little things heard and they continue moving ahead with God's united worshipers as one family. John 17:22

So instead of expecting perfection from the Governing Body faithful people throughout the earth today are taking note of how this men are fulfilling what is written in the scriptures along with the millions following them with faith! Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3

Verbtips:
i just finish studying sef.we have learnt name of GOD,SO THEY SAID NAME OF GOD IS WRITTEN IN 4 LETTER IN GREEK WHIS IS WRITTEN AS JEHOVA IN ENGLISH

You are truly learning but try to be calm that four letters are in Hebrew not Greek!

"YHWH"

This is how it's written in four Hebrew letters below.

Verbtips:
but in jw teaching it is said that four letter word is the name of jesus in greek
and jehova in english

Please don't listen to what others say ask our people when we come knocking at your door.

Jesus and Jehovah are different persons that's why Jesus pray and beg Jehovah for help while Jehovah has never prayed to anyone neither beg anyone for help!

For his disciples to be organized and do things orderly Jesus appointed twelve out of his many disciples and called them "APOSTLES" {Luke 6:13} to this little group Jesus gave the power to make decrees among his disciples so that whatever they decree on earth has been granted in heaven {Matthew 16:19} so just as Jehovah appointed Moses over Israel whatever decision Moses makes has Jehovah's backing and whoever stands against Moses thinking this man also err in his ways of handling things as imperfect human is indirectly against Jehovah! Numbers 12:8
But why should God and Jesus give authority to such imperfect humans?
Well it's to maintain orderliness among God's people and God always chose humble people who are ever willing to accept correction! Numbers 12:3

Today the little group Jesus is using to oversee his group on planet earth is known globally by faithful servants of God as GOVERNING BODY.

Jesus foretold that during the endtime only wise people who can see from afar like EAGLES will recognize this BODY and gather around them {Luke 17:37} in another instance Jesus referred to them as his brothers that all faithful people must recognize just as we would have done to him {Matthew 25:34-46} Paul emphasized the importance of imitating the faith of this little group {Hebrews 13:7} because only those with them can be truly organized as God's people! Zechariah 8:23

One may ask:

Aren't this group also rulers over others?

They are appointed by Jehovah to oversee the affairs of God's people so it's only those within the camp of spiritual Israel that willingly subjected themselves to this group unlike politicians who used weapons to lord over their subjects {Luke 22:25} they have no recognition in the world so wherever they go they're like ordinary men it's only their fellow believers that knows their worth spiritually speaking! Matthew 25:34-46

Verbtips:
GOD NAME APPEAR MORE THAN 7000 TIMES IN THE BIBLE,GOD IS TRYING TO MAKE US KNOW HIS NAME,I UNDERSTAND YOUR POINT,BUT IT STILL SOUND USELESS.
BECUS BIBLE WAS WRITTEN WITH BY GOD'S SPIRIT (HOLY SPIRIT)USING SOME PEOPLE I.E MOSES.JOHN
THE QUOTE YOU SAID
THOU SHALL NOT CALL THE NAME OF YOU GOD IN VAIN
MEANS DIFFERENT THING WITH THEIR INTERPRETATION
SO DO YOU AGREE WITH THEM
WHEN THE BIBLE SAY NOTHING SHOULD BE DEDUCT OR ADD

You need to calm down while reading people's comments because i am one of Jehovah's Witnesses God's personal name is tied to our group name that's why we don't believe Jesus as our God. He is a messenger of our God sent to deliver God's message to mankind just like all other prophets of God.
After his resurrection he told his disciples that he is returning to his father and their father and to his God who is also their God! John 20:17

With the above explanation one may ask :

"But what about God's servants in ancient times like Joseph, David, Solomon, Josiah and Esther ?"

This people are not politicians!

Politicians are people who are nursing the ambition to rule (set standards) for others so whatever it will cost them to be there they are ready to pay. Unlike these faithful servants of God who found themselves in those positions without wanting it politicians don't bother what God thinks about their ambitions.

I will help you with few names of real politicians in Bible times and you too can add to the list.

Let's go: Adam, Eve, Cain, Koran, Saul, Absalom..............

These are the politicians who wants to rule over others and ready to give it whatever it will cost them even when it means turning their backs on God's righteous standards.

God bless you and may you have peace!

Politicians like Vladimir Putin noticed that this group is not just pacifists but warriors as they don't just sit back and watch others go to wars rather they're going to meet people in their homes to convince them that politics is evil.

The strategy we believe in the military is that the best form of DEFENSE is to ATTACK which means instead of planning on how to defend we must be the one to attack the enemies.

Ironically this is exactly what Jesus of Nazareth taught his disciples to do. Unlike other prophets before him Jesus goes from house to house discussing one on one with whoever is willing to listen instead of standing by the roadside making noise {Matthew 12:19} that's exactly the same thing he taught his own disciples {Matthew 10:11-13} you may wonder why Jehovah's Witnesses knock on people's doors instead of just standing by the roadside and talking indiscriminately into thin air like others, well that's the military strategy Jesus established so we fight their hearts and win {Ephesians 6:12} whoever becomes our victim remains alive and also becomes a warrior unlike the other way around when victims are killed {Luke 5:10} this is what Vladimir Putin realized and declared the most peaceful religion on planet earth as a TERRORIST GROUP or EXTREMISTS!

Back then in 2017 when this man declared the JWs a terrorist group and banned us in Russia most unbiased people raised alarm because they knew Jehovah's Witnesses in their countries as peaceful people while enemies of truth began rejoicing but go to Ukraine today and see how many has become orphans and widows after Vladimir Putin ordered his army to attack Ukraine a country where the people speaks the same language and practice the same religion with Russians.

So with this evidence i'm sure that lovers of truth and Bible scholars will agree with me that i have found the one and only religion that is practicing what Jesus taught!
