The funny thing is, I didn't even go deeper in getting those posts.

One thing is certain, if the account actually belongs to his wife with what had been posted with that account, it shows his wife and him aren't on the same page in many view points.
She is a dedicated servant of Jehovah just like me i banned her from commenting on religious section due to her frequent anger as she hates trolls.

Women talks are normal, they were chatting and it's common with women! smiley

The ErnestNc that has seen and called you JWs Antichrist based on the Title of the thread, is the same person you are inviting to come and discuss Bible with you in order to join your Cult for Salvation Mad MaxInDHouse aka Maximus692 aka Maximus69 The fraud aka AkinwaleJjj. That Brain in that Coconut head of yours has been eaten up by Birds. No common sense at all! Ewu! No sense of Self Awareness.
😀 😀 😀
Jews in the first century did more than that to Jesus and his disciples but later repent when they discovered they were wrong. Act 2:37

We don't hate people for what they think, say or do to us {Luke 6:28} our prayers is for them to think deeply so that our God may open their eyes! Luke 23:34 compare to Act 7:60

Whatever anyone has done to us in the past has been forgiven if only they have a rethink.

Do you know what i made JWs pass through when coming to preach to me? smiley

Does that justify you lying against the Holy Spirit of God? My point is you lying against the Holy Spirit of God. That's a lie that can't be verified. You lied that Holy Spirit told you I have alternate accounts, which I don't. So how can Holy Spirit of God tell you lie? It means you don't have connection with Him. No! Your lie can be verified. If you lie on your own without dragging the Holy Spirit of God into it, it's another thing. So have you apologize for accusing me wrongly and using Holy Spirit name to lie?
You're really funny walahi talahi! cheesy

So do you know why jihadists are killing people up and down?

Well they claim you're lying against their God saying their god has a son and that the son is also God who died on a cross.

So are they justified in killing your people?

Ọmọ i've not changed what i said, that's what
"God's Holy Spirit revealed to me"

Just to let you know that you lied against the Holy Spirit of God.
So who raised a thread against another religion here, JWs or your people?

Perhaps you should go through their comments before talking about who makes the judge here!

If anyone lied against God or Jesus or Holy Spirit i think it's God Himself who will judge nah! Revelations 22:11-12

So leave God to judge Jehovah's Witnesses our righteousness is from our own God! Isaiah 54:17 wink

Nevertheless you guys should not dissociative from others. Stop acting like a cult group.
All groups are cults if we're to go by your opinion because they have rules that makes them differ from others. So if anyone calls us CULT it's a welcome development after all Jesus has told us ahead! Matthew 10:25

FRANCISTOWN:
The Bible only says you shouldn't drink or eat blood. The Bible never said there should be no transfusion of blood.
Do you know how many people have died due to that ignorance?
More are dying of blood transfusion but those doctors won't tell you. It's when someone tries to object to their suggestions that they raise alarm. What our God said is "abstain from blood" {Act 15:29} ọmọ there's more to it than what people think.
FRANCISTOWN:
On this, we can't really tell whether it was a pole or a + Crux. All kinds of Crux were used those days, but Peter was said to be crucified upside down on a + Crux.
Cross is an idol before Jesus' time and Romans only use straight pole. You can search Google to know if this is true of false.
FRANCISTOWN:
"I and the Father are one" John 10:30
"Have faith in me when I say that the Father is one with me and that I am one with the Father" - John 14:11
There are 3 that bears witness in heaven, The Father, The Word and The Spirit 1 john5:7
We are One with Jesus and our God {John 17:22} does that makes us God?
1John 5:7 was manipulated check different versions of the Bible it's not there.
FRANCISTOWN:
Before I quote the Bible, lemme ask you. Is spirit a living being or not?
God Himself is a spirit {John 4:24} the Holy Spirit is His active force as ín the energy He uses to accomplish His purposes.
FRANCISTOWN:
Okay, what proofs do you have that you are approved of Jesus ,and that your doctrine is right as opposed to your MFM brethren
Jesus said only those who are able to form a global family of peace loving worshipers just as Isaiah and Micah said {Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3} have the assurance of everlasting life {Mark 10:29-30} so if their religion can't help solve the disparities leading to wars among them of what use is God's word in their hands?
Paul said:
"All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial 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 if they can't make good use of the scriptures to teach, reprove, set matters straight and discipline one another in righteousness among themselves but to carry weapons and start killing one another ọmọ of what purpose are they carrying the scriptures?

This is what God's word says about true worshipers in the endtime:

"He will render judgment among the nations And set matters straight respecting many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares And their spears into pruning shears. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, Nor will they learn war anymore" Isaiah 2:4; Micah 4:3

If they're unable to achieve this what is the proof that God whose name is LOVE {1John 4:7-8} is dwelling among them? John 13:34-35

You know? I used to have Jehovah
witness's friends back in the days.

I don't know whether this is relative
but I will say it regardless. I must
say they practice love, they turn
up for each other. No competition,
no excess extravagant lifestyle.
"By their fruits you will recognize them. Never do people gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles, do they? Likewise, every good tree produces fine fruit, but every rotten tree produces worthless fruit. A good tree cannot bear worthless fruit, nor can a rotten tree produce fine fruit." Matthew 7:16-18

FRANCISTOWN:
But I have a few things against you
1. Why don't you guys allow blood
transfusion. The Bible verse you are
about to quote only says "you should
not eat or drink".
This is old story my friend today most doctors in advanced countries now know better in fact they're begging us to tell them what makes us have an edge when it comes to timely infos because now they're waking up to the dangers in blood transfusion that's unavoidable.
FRANCISTOWN:
2. Why do you guys believe Jesus was
not crucified on a cross but on a straight
log of wood.(A pole)
Jesus was executed in the first century at that time what the Romans use to execute criminals was a straight pole not Cross, in fact the word Crux mistranslated Cross means a straight pole. Before Jesus the worship of Cross has been in existence so it's those pagans that introduced it to the churches back then after the death of Jesus' apostles! Matthew 13:25
FRANCISTOWN:
3. You guys believe that Jesus is not God
but a mere messenger of God.
The Bible said he WAS God not that he IS God and that's because by the time apostle John was penning down those words Jesus has finished earthly assignment as both prophet and God just like Moses! Exodus 7:1
That's why God told the Israelites that He will send another prophet to them who will be like Moses {Deuteronomy 18:18} apostle Peter confirmed that Jesus is the prophet who came in the manner of Moses! Act 3:22
FRANCISTOWN:
4. You guys believe that the "Holy Spirit" is
not a person, but a force.
God's Holy Spirit isn't a person that's why Jesus could say it's only two persons we need to know! John 17:3
FRANCISTOWN:
5. You guys don't necessarily relate with
other christian communities.
Even if they have a slightly different
perspective about the Bible.
They're not Christians but pagans claiming Christians, you to must have learn one or two things from their attitude. If they're Christians do you think they will ignore the words of Jesus who is called Christ?
Ọmọ they're not Christians!
FRANCISTOWN:
Did Jesus not eat with Tax Collectors
and made them his friends?
Do you believe in a different Jesus?
Of course tax collectors are part of the community so we JWs visit anyone in their homes as long as they're willing to welcome us to preach and teach them but those so called Christians can't do the same because they've judged people thinking they're too holy to enter places where sinners live, that's why they stay in street corners and public buses making noise which Jesus never taught us! Matthew 12:19
Christianity Etc › Re: Witches and Christians have Something in Common: by MaxInDHouse(m): 3:49pm On Jun 04, 2023
Both are like trees but planted by different persons God is the One who planted Christianity {John 15:1} and Satan is the owner of spiritism so both has GIFTS that's similar in nature but when it comes to FRUITS each has its unique FRUIT that's why Jesus said:

"By their FRUITS you will know them" Matthew 7:16

So if someone doesn't know the difference between the FRUIT of God's Holy Spirit and GIFTS of God's Holy Spirit he may be worshiping Satan unknowingly thinking he's a worshiper of the true God due to supernatural gifts displayed by witches in their coven {Matthew 7:21-23} of course Satan and his demons have transformed into angels of light {2Corinthians 11:14} so they're now bearing scriptural names to deceive unwise ones! Matthew 24:11

That's a topic you need to grasp.
Before you buy a book you must have gotten a point or two that interests you so you will be prepared to read the book even though it's up to 300 pages. But when someone is trying to make a point that will interest you that's not the time to make an epistle. Just few sentences will do.

Thanks for this response.
The lady told me that there
was some random dude that
her elder sister loved so
much, but they had to split
due to that reason.

Lemme ask you, do you think
other christian denominations
are getting it wrong and that
guys are the only ones getting
it right?
Before i answer your question let me digress a bit.
With the response you've been getting so far from all these religionists on Nairaland which truly goes in line with Jesus' command to his disciples?

"Bless those cursing you, to pray for those who are insulting you" Luke 6:28

Christians are supposed to be happy people due to the good good things we have at heart and that supposed to determine how we response to unbelievers not getting overly annoyed with abusive speeches those doing that have nothing good in their hearts:

"A good man brings good out of the good treasure of his heart, but a wicked man brings what is wicked out of his wicked treasure; for out of the heart’s abundance his mouth speaks." Luke 6:45

Let me blow your mind!

Do you know that of all the religions claiming Christians only Jehovah's Witnesses are against killing our neighbours in support of politics? Mark 12:31

All others are easily brainwashed by politicians who keeps their own wives and children away from the warzone but issue orders to their subjects to go and kill or get killed! Matthew 26:52

Due to this fact Vladimir Putin of Russia noticed that Jehovah's Witnesses are preaching and teaching about peace and this will not help him to get his people ready for war so in 2017 he banned Jehovah's Witnesses in Russia calling us "TERRORISTS" few years later he began launching a war against Ukraine. But what baffles me is that this man took his own families far away from Russia then ordered Russians to go killing Ukrainians who are speaking the same language and guess what? Most of these people are claiming Christians! huh

Oh YES! We are the one and only group getting it right! smiley
Christianity Etc › Re: Is The God Of The Bible The Real Villian? by MaxInDHouse(m):
nokspos:
why can't God just talk from heaven and clear all these confusions? . Even Obasanjo will not kill an entire generation with flood, if God is the most forgiving and the most peaceful then is this not confusing?
Ọmọ that doesn't solve anything!

God appeared to the Israelites and spoke from the heavens but due to fear they said to Moses:
“You speak with us, and we will listen, but do not let God speak with us, for fear that we will die.” Exodus 20:19

From God's standpoint humans are unworthy of His presence {Romans 3:23} but due to the covenant He had with Abraham God did so much for the Israelites. When Jesus walked this planet He looked at the Israelites with dismay as they were arguing with him despite all that God had done for them and the warning He gave them concerning the Christ:

"I will raise up for them from the midst of their brothers a prophet like you, and I will put my words in his mouth, and he will speak to them all that I command him. Indeed, I will require an account from the man who will not listen to my words that he will speak in my name" Deuteronomy 18:18-19

Jesus performed many miraculous works in their midst just like Moses did before their ancestors that's why Moses and Jesus were both referred to as God in the Bible {Exodus 7:1; Isaiah 9:6} as both of them fully played the part of God in their midst but did they believe them?
NO!
There ancestors wanted to stone Moses despite all the things God used that faithful man to do in their eyes, the same thing they did to Jesus trying to stone him to death! Exodus 17:4 compare to John 10:31

So Jesus looked into the heavens and out of a grievous heart said to God:

"Father glorify your name!"
And immediately a voice responded from heaven and said:
"I have glorified it and will glorify it again"
John 12:28

When the people heard God's voice Jesus told them that it's not supposed to be so but due to the promise God made to his beloved friend Abraham He (God) did that! John 12:19-30

God will never ever speak to people of other nations like that because He had no covenant with your own ancestors the same way He did with Abraham that's why Jesus told a Phoenician woman that supernatural gifts and miraculous deeds are meant only for the Israelites! Matthew 15:24

But many will believe Jesus even though they never saw nor heard him speak Jesus said this are the real believers not only those who saw him live before believing! John 20:29

The problem with most people is that they will not accept the proof of God's presence rather they will start making demands which makes no sense. Today God's true servants (Jehovah's Witnesses) are with us but many vilify and mistreat them comparing them to the religious title chiefs of their personal choice. So since God's servants don't follow their thinking they will not believe! Matthew 5:11-12
Christianity Etc › Re: The Gifts Of The Spirit by MaxInDHouse(m): 4:29am On Jun 03, 2023
Jesus Christ implore his disciples to pray to God for Holy Spirit! Luke 11:13
The Spirit of God has two things we must know:
GIFTS and FRUIT
The gifts are many so God's word always use plural when talking about that part "GIFTS" {1Corinthians 12:1} but singular when talking about it's "FRUIT" Galatians 5:22-23

According to Jesus himself the true God planted a tree of FAITH and that tree is Jesus Christ {John 15:1} there are many other trees (religions belonging to Satan and his demons)

So after Christ died he was buried and the seed began germinating, the tree grew up after Jesus' resurrection and ascension to heaven and that's what is called Christianity till today. John 15:5-8

Just like all other trees (religions) Christianity has the GIFTS of spirit. To illustrate you will notice that trees do have lots of gifts like wide leaves, tick and tall, appealing sight, fragrance and many more. You will agree with me that there are lots of trees having all these gifts in like manner many religions have gifts like healing, prophecy, speaking in tongues, songs, beautiful places of worship and times of merriments.
But no tree can produce more than just one FRUIT so no matter the similarities in gifts each tree has its own fruit that's why God's word often use plural when talking about gifts of the spirit but singular when talking about the fruit of God's Holy Spirit.

Jesus emphasized that though Christianity will also have GIFTS of the spirit like other religions but it's by the FRUITS of these religions you will know Christianity out of them all! Matthew 7:16-18

So when Christianity was born like a baby all the GIFTS were observed by people who were alive during the birth of this religion that's why they acknowledged that a new religion has come to birth and they began calling the adherents CHRISTIANS! Act 11:26

Apostle Paul told Christians in Corinth that the gifts they're seeing in Christianity will soon cease {1Corinthians 13:8-10} because it's just a sign that the true God has approved this religion but it's the FRUIT of God's Holy Spirit that will continue as the IDENTIFYING mark of this religion {John 13:34-35} the One who planted this tree is LOVE {1John 4:8 compare to John 15:1} that's why Jesus emphasized much on LOVE! Mark 12:31; Matthew 5:43-48; John 15:12

So the FRUIT of God's Holy Spirit had nine qualities: LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, GOODNESS, GENTLENESS, FAITH, MILDNESS and SELF-CONTROL {Galatians 5:22-23} all these are the qualities of the tree called CHRISTIANITY but the greatest of these qualities is LOVE! 1Corinthians 13:13

Ọmọ this one think say nah too much talk we dey take make disciples for Christ.
In fact with this alone any right thinking person already know that your god is complicated! smiley

Westerhoffe:
John 10 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
²⁷ My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
²⁸ And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
²⁹ My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
³⁰ I and my Father are one.


EVIDENCES FROM THE BIBLE THAT JESUS CHRIST THE SON AND WORD OF GOD IS GOD.

John 3 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
⁶ That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

…
¹¹ Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.

“Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also.”
— John 8:19 (KJV)

“It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”
— John 6:63 (KJV)

Just as a human will always be a human;
And just as a spirit will always be a spirit;
So will the sons of humans be human.
And the Son of GOD be GOD.
For just as a prince in the palace of a king is a future King, so JESUS CHRIST the Prince of Peace is the Mighty GOD.

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”
— Isaiah 9:6 (KJV)

JESUS CHRIST possesses all the characteristics of GOD, which are undeniable by these facts, which were recorded in the Holy Bible, the Book of Truth. And to this end has JESUS CHRIST spoken, that:

John 5 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
³⁸ And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.
³⁹ Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
⁴⁰ And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.

And also, He said:

Luke 24 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
⁴⁴ And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
⁴⁵ Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
⁴⁶ And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
⁴⁷ And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
⁴⁸ And ye are witnesses of these things.
⁴⁹ And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.

Now, since He knew the multitudes of people following Him only followed Him, for the great works, miracles, signs and wonders, but do not know exactly who He is, He asked them a question, and this is what happened:

Matthew 16 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
¹³ When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
¹⁴ And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
¹⁵ He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
¹⁶ And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
¹⁷ And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
¹⁸ And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
¹⁹ And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
²⁰ Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
Now, give your heart to know Wisdom, that His Truth may be revealed unto you this day:

Question: Who is He that is from above?
Answer: GOD.
JESUS CHRIST said He is from above and not of this world.
John 3:13, John 3:31, John 8:23, John 17:14

Question: Who has the power to save one from sins?
Answer: GOD.
JESUS CHRIST say if you don't believe 'He' is the 'One' you will die in your sins.
Isaiah 45:22, Matthew 1:21-23, John 8:23-24, Luke 1:30-32,

And JESUS CHRIST said:

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
³⁷ And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
³⁸ And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.
³⁹ Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
⁴⁰ And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
⁴¹ I receive not honour from men.
⁴² But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
⁴³ I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
⁴⁴ How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?
⁴⁵ Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.
⁴⁶ For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.
⁴⁷ But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

Philippians 2 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
⁵ Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
⁶ Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
⁷ But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
⁸ And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
⁹ Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
¹⁰ That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
¹¹ And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

SandraIkuboR:
Thank you
You're welcome.
Please try to associate with people who takes life simple most people are desperate due to the anxieties of life so they do anything just to become rich, famous and influential but wise people always avoid attraction. WHY?
Thieves and other good for nothing people are always attracted to such things therefore anyone going after those things is putting his or her life at risk as in great risk! Matthew 6:19

But most importantly is the problem having to do with Satan and demons!
Once someone is desperate to get those things he or she will no longer care for what may result from desperation so they go from spiritists to spiritists and those spirits know for sure that our lifespan is the major reason we want to get rich quickly therefore they will demand for things that ordinarily no sane human can think of hence many get themselves into lots of troubles {1Timothy 6:7-10} suffering silently but smiling publicly! Ecclesiastes 5:12
You may have wondered why is it that most spiritists live simple and quiet lives while they're able to do money rituals for others. huh
Well it's because they know the implications as in troubles that goes along with it, whatever those demons give anyone who goes to them they will collect in multiple folds! embarassed

Yea I wanna hear
When talking about faith in God most people just feel it's a thing of choice so they can pick any religion that suits them the same applies to partner in marriage but our God warned us not to think like that. 1 Corinthians 7:39; Deuteronomy 7:3-4
But why did our God insisted we must marry only within those worshiping Him?
I won't like to go too far so i will pick from what you've seen so far on this forum.
From your experience during discussion with religionists on this forum do you think it's wise to become an in-law to people whose thoughts makes no practical sense?
Well marriage is a lifetime commitment so you dare not form marriage alliance with people whose thoughts aren't humanely when you have people around you whose thinking faculty tally with yours, in that case you will be rest assured that your son or daughter is in safe hands.
That's wisdom which totally differs from intelligence. Most people are intelligent but they're not wise.
Knowledge is the accumulation of useful information so with knowledge you can deal with situations and find a way (if possible) out of difficulty but Wisdom is the practical application of accumulated information which results in lasting benefits. So wise people always envisage problems that may arise when others can see it coming! Proverbs 22:3

FxMasterz:
I have said it that the very fruits you bear already give you out as a demon possessed fellow. You don't know God.

God's covenant of salvation in Christ Jesus. Jesus Christ Himself is God's covenant. He embodies the Covenant. There's a mesanger who prepared the way before Him. That mesanger is John the Baptist. That he was referred to as the mesanger of the Covenant would confuse unbelievers like you. However, he is clearly distinguished by the remark that said "This mesanger of the Covenant prepares the way for the Lord to come into His temple."

You're not a child of God, so go give your life to Christ and be saved before you come discussing the Bible.
Jesus is the MESSENGER of the covenant!

The messenger of the first covenant is Moses who served as both prophet and God {Exodus 7:1} so the true God promised to send another messenger like Moses who will also be both prophet and God {Deuteronomy 18:18} this is the messenger of the second covenant.

Apostle Peter confirmed that Jesus is that messenger! Act 3:22

So if TRINITY is blurring your understanding it's not the same with everyone! smiley

Oga,please go & DELETE Revelation 3:12 & John 20:17 to suit your personal "truth."

They want to argue on letters but they despise the spirit of God! 2Corinthians 3:6

They want to use their fruitless arguments and hopeless religions to stand side by side with the organization that's actively working with the spirit of God.
So if you ask them to present their WORKS {James 2:18; Matthew 7:16} they will quickly dismiss it yet poised for worthless arguments! Titus 3:9
