The preaching and teaching campaign is about God's Kingdom where peace will reign on earth because only peacelovers will be alive by then. So if you can't present any group of people in whose midst there is no use of weapons then you're fooling yourself.
Any organization that has successfully carried out what is found written in the Bible book of Isaiah 2:2-4 and Zephaniah 3:9 are undoubtedly God's people today!

bobestman:
Anything outside the gospel the same Jewish disciples of the messiah preached thousands of years ago is also immaterial cos after the messiah died, they searched for all the disciples who knew the truth and killed all of them. They fabricated another gospel you all preach today. So you guys who go about preaching JW gospel are all wasting your time. As he gave command that the sign shall follow them that believed, he also gave command to them to preach. You can't call one a lie and another truth. It only exposes the ignorance and foolishness of your organisation

It first occurred in Jerusalem when first century Jewish disciples of Christ spoke different languages to preach the Good News of God's Kingdom {Act 2:6} and that's according to God's will since Jesus asked them to do so! Act 1:8

Anything outside that is immaterial!

Do you think population has anything to do in this?

Nawttiboi007:
At the end of it all only God knows who truly worships him and knows after death no living souls does

Of course you can know if you really want God has not hidden anything good from mankind in general except what is proper not to be revealed in the presence of rebellious humans.
Only Christians can gain everlasting life!

Note how i put it "only Christians CAN (not WILL) gain everlasting life"
This is because you must believe (trust) in the only begotten Son of God before you can live a life worthwhile from God's viewpoint and many claiming Christians don't even know what it means to be a Christian that's why they will also perish because a true Christian supposed to know the will of God so as to do it! Matthew 7:21-23

If you need further clarifications my name is Maximus one of Jehovah's Witnesses!

Walahi talahi at times it's fun drilling into the skulls of some atheists claiming believers.
At the mention of Jehovah's Witnesses they're tormented and they will start typing gibberish as if they have something worthwhile to say but in reality they're just envious of the one and only group practicing Christianity!

Jehovah's Witnesses: the one and only religion practicing pure worship!

Successdude:
For my own personal need.

Please i will really appreciate it if you're specific, are you contemplating spiritual warfare due to NEEDS or WANTS?

NEEDS: basic necessities of life e.g. food, clothing and shelter. According to philosophy this things are few and Jesus (God's Son) said his father makes it accessible for both the good and the evil! Matthew 5:45

WANTS: additional things humans desire to spice up their lives now and according to Jesus these things are UNLIMITED moreover thieves and hoodlums are attracted by these things. Matthew 6:19-21

Jesus himself do pray fervently as he must fight to succeed in his earthly mission but regarding the WANTS of life he said:

Jehovah (Yahweh) is my shepherd i will not WANT {Psalms 23:1} of course Jesus often pray for his personal NEEDS which is needed strength and support to accomplish his earthly ministry.

So my friend between the two which do you really have in mind: NEEDS or WANTS?

Aemmyjah:
U quoted me and it's not a problem but I did same and I'm pained?
Ur head needs urgent attention

The same reason i believe it's just two persons using multiple accounts!
Whenever anyone ask a thought provoking question about faith in God or churches if it's a professed atheist they will start insulting or cursing the atheist instead of handling matters maturely like a knowledgeable Bible student will do but if it's a Churchgoer like them who hasn't professed Atheism they have nothing to say regarding setting matters straight so they will ignore such a thread, once a JW comes in to discuss with the OP they will rush in not to make a meaningful contribution but to attack the JW who has come to discuss with the OP.

Check all threads where the OP ask questions regarding the churches you won't see them come to respond until a JW takes it up that's when they will all rush in just as they're doing right now.

That's why i ignored them all if any of them has questions to ask regarding my faith i have opened threads telling them to study the Bible with Jehovah's Witnesses, i won't respond to their distractive posts here that has nothing to gain!

Successdude:
How to go about it - the template which includes rules / consecration; and the verses / bible chapters - and how to recite them and also how to pray ? ? ?

It depends on what you want to achieve!

Aemmyjah:
Lol
Which other way will you be aware
Who tagged who first?
Delusional person

That's why i decided not to respond to any of them on this thread, apart from the OP you're the only one that matters here, the OP asked a question let them respond if they have anything worthwhile to contribute but tagging me to quench their thirst it won't work for them!

Faith is the assured expectation of what is hoped for, the evident demonstration of realities that are not seen. Hebrews 11:1

The above is Bible's definition for FAITH so let's analyze it:

Faith means the conviction of what someone is hoping for and this is evident in the way he does things even though others around him can't see what he strongly believe for real.

Based on this definition the only way to grow one's faith is by watering the hope one has in the promises of God so it's impossible for faith to grow if it's not planted by someone who knows the promises of God this is the one who teaches you about God's promises and it's on this information faith is built.
For instance someone tells you that there are lots of hidden treasures in a cave and an ancient king secured that cave with hundreds of thousands of soldiers but all those soldiers are dead since 5,000 years ago.
Will you act on this information?
Well you may be doubting the information but as you try to examine the whole thing you began seeing all these things the man told you including countless skeletons with helmets and other war equipments of ancient times, then as you're drawing closer to the cave you see how organized the dead soldiers were positioned as if they're protecting something.
Surely your expectations will rise based on the firsthand information.

But if you haven't heard anything tangible upon what will your faith grow? Romans 10:13-14

Jehovah's Witnesses organization the one and only true Christian group!

Jehovah's Witnesses organization the one and only group practicing Christianity!

Why not find out what Jesus taught because he never spoke English so don't be carried away with credulity propagated by false religions in Jesus' name. There is just two ways one to everlasting life and the other to death God never had any plan for evildoers right from the beginning what He said about those who turn to rebelliousness is DEATH meaning they will return to none existence! Genesis 2:17

I believe that all God fearing and honourable people irrespective of religious orientation will be saved into the new kingdom. The idiocy that only a select group of people are dear to God is akin to supremacist ideology and is counter-productive to the peaceful and loving coexistence between all men. Christians have totally missed the point and keep condemning and judging other men to a so called hell when the truth is that God is not a Christian and knows of no such religion. God only knows and honours those who practice goodness , equity , fairness and love.
Those deluded ones who keep living like the devil and claim the blood of Jesus as a legal loophole will be in for a shocker. I will rather be friends with a Muslim who loves his fellow man than a Christian who slanders, insults and humiliates others Remember ; God sees the heart and not the 'mouth' !

Before Jesus of Nazareth walked this planet all nice people are noticed by God's angels who are serving as God's eyes throughout the earth but after John the baptist things changed so to be part of those that will be remembered for resurrection anyone who has had a one on one contact with either John the baptist, Jesus or Jesus' disciples must choose either to have his or her name written in God's memory book or perish with the world.

So from that time onwards anyone who heard or has noticed Jesus' disciples but feel indifferent towards their activities has been condemned!

Southboy:
Good morning and happy Sunday to everyone.
I woke up this morning to the argument of some of my neighbors about judgement day and it hit me, what's the essence of lining up waiting to be judged by God when he already knows what the answer to the question is?

Am only here for the knowledge

God doesn't know each human on planet earth that's why Jesus referred to faithless people as DEAD {Luke 9:60} only the faithful people has something to record in God's memory book {Revelations 20:15 compare to Malachi 3:16} so even at death God views them as living {Luke 20:37-38} because He is eager to bring them back to life {Job 14:13-15} when He has cleared all evildoers of the planet! Psalms 37:9-11

So don't think God knows everyone and as for the day of judgement there's a lot of misconception on what the Bible really teach because it's not about one day rather a thousand years {2Peter 3:8} where resurrected ones will have to prove that they worth living forever! Revelations 20:1-15

Aemmyjah:
The stupid one knows where to find stupid answers to stupid questions. From himself

In response to the OP's curiosity they knew very well that there's no substance in the comments made by their cohorts so instead of responding to the OP who openly condemned all their churches the churchgoers, atheists and traditionalists joined together will ignore it all only to start chasing Jehovah's Witnesses who have come to set matters straight.
So i have no business with any of them here since they've got nothing tangible to contribute in response to the OP's curiosity.

Aemmyjah:
See where your brain is not working
I mentioned about something that was not familiar with others unless he explain
You are saying nonsense
Foolish apostate that wants to leave the planet to live his own life alone
Are you still alive?
What are you still finding here on earth?
Tell the forum about your purpose in life if you have any
Made miscreant with no joy or purpose making a life from hate and brewing lies

What's paining them mostly is the way Jehovah made it possible for humans from divers races, cultures and works of life throughout the earth to have the same line of thought regarding sacred service {John 17:22; 1Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:3} as Satan's agents each of them just want to be his or her own deity {Genesis 3:5} so just like Satan their mentor {John 8:44} they're disturbed to see any group of humans unitedly worshiping with One mindset {Zephaniah 3:9} therefore at the slightest sign of divers opinion among God's people faithless miscreants rejoice greatly they feel we have crossed to their side where there is no unity! Luke 16:26

I'm done here after gotten what i wanted to know from the OP it's clear he's not the type i thought he is!

@crows2ravens
It's a pleasure sharing few moments with you on Nairaland. Please if you have questions just as you asked others feel free to approach me but if you don't care you can delete or erase whatever you've read in my response to you.
One thing that can never change is anyone no matter your religion as long as you're not worshiping with JWs is not a worshiper of our God.
Thanks for your time!

@ crows2ravens i'm only interested in you so if you feel we should end the conversation let me know.

crows2ravens:
First we must remember almost all churches have their origins from old Roman Catholic (not exactly today's catholic church), which made Christianity a state religion, influencing it with politics.

The Catholic Church has nothing common with the first century Christian congregation!
It was after the death of Jesus' apostles that Satan established the Roman Catholic Church using the apostates that left the faith due to the way the apostles protected the congregation not allowing members to venture into politics. So those apostates left the congregation and formed alliance with the pagans of Rome then the emperor supported them. That's how they began hunting for those who will not associate with them and they finally succeeded in eliminating all those who knew the true faith. Luke 18:8
Jesus allowed this that's why he said "let them grow together until the time of the harvest" Matthew 13:30
All the pagan doctrines of eternal torment and so on were from those apostates as they wanted power and political support they buy whatever the emperor dish out to them.
That's how the church began taking their wars (crusades) to all the places where those who refused to support their moves run to and they forced many to concur while those who stood by their faith were killed!

crows2ravens:
Despite the churches springing out and adopting various forms of doctrines, an apple doesn't fall far from its tree - they still have some fundamental things in common.

All the so called churches in Christendom have so many things in common with politically oriented Roman Catholic Church that's why all of them can't succeed in making their members turn away from wars caused by racism and politics! Matthew 26:52
It was Jesus' return to restructure his group that gave birth to Jehovah's Witnesses organization that's why we totally differs from all of them!

crows2ravens:
About Jesus organizing His group, He gave them simple instructions to teach the world the gospel of salvation, and the hope for eternal life! All these other doctrines are man-made and while useful for guidance, are not necessary for your salvation and eternal life. This is what is wrong.
Love God with all your heart, and commit yourself to His word. Love humanity and care about others, don't be selfish! These are the greatest commandments you should put to heart.

The greatest commandment comes from Jesus who told his disciples:
"I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another; just as I have loved you, you also love one another. By this all will know that you are my disciples—if you have love among yourselves" John 13:34-35 compare to John 15:12

The commandment you quoted WAS the greatest before Jesus established the NEW commandment only for his own disciples in addition to the old commandment.

So that WAS but no longer the greatest after Jesus commanded the New one!

Aemmyjah:
We are talking A, you are talking Z. What is the need of interacting with someone who has never contributed anything meaningful to this forum? Keep wailing

Do you remember the lady he found at Jacob's well?
Even though she lives a questionable lifestyle {John 4:18} Jesus took her case seriously he even referred to his conversation with that promiscuous woman as "food" John 4:34

My brother this is not the time to let faithless miscreants steal the time by responding to their faithlessness {1Corinthians 9:26 compare to Ephesians 5:15-16} that's why i only respond to the faithful OP, he reminded me of Nathaniel who asked his brother "can anything good come out of Israel" John 1:46

If he feels concerned about the contradictions in the churches like the Samaritan woman and like Nathaniel he doubts God's organization i will pitch my tent with him until i'm fully sure of his heart condition! Matthew 13:22

crows2ravens:
I'm not new to your kind of teachings. I agree with some of your beliefs. But not all.
About the new heaven and new earth, and the righteous inheriting the earth, I agree.
About heaven and hell, the resurrection and the second death, I agree. About the doctrine of Trinity, I believe in God the father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. About millennialism, the reign of 1,000 years, no one has convincingly said how exactly it will happen.
About 1914 and the great tribulation, we defer. World War 1 and World War 2 combined took out less than 1/10 of the world. But The black plague took out about 1/3 of the earth's population and that happened circa 1350. So if we're to use dates 1346 would connect more. But Jesus said all eyes shall behold Him in the clouds. It's not coded second coming, but with glory.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, you've spoken well but there is something you're missing!

Jesus never said the number of casualties during wars will determine the sign of the end rather he gave us a composite sign:

There will be wars, food shortages, pestilences, false prophets spreading false religious beliefs everywhere, lawlessness that will make many become faithless (atheists), betrayal even among Jesus' true disciples and the preaching of the good news of God's Kingdom will be well organized throughout the earth as a group is zealously and industriously campaigning for God's Kingdom globally! Matthew 24:7-14

So when we say 1914 there has never been a time on this planet that the composite sign is noticed globally as written in that Bible book!

crows2ravens:
There are contradictions in churches. But as at now, based on those I know their doctrines well, none of them gets it right completely.

Are you saying Jesus failed to organize his group and equip them for the work his assigned to them?
Because if all the religions today are talking about the end of badness surely they're seeing some signs and Jesus can't be unaware or feel unconcerned, surely he must be doing something right now since he said:

"And look! I am with you all the days until the conclusion of the system of things" Matthew 28:20

Do you think Jesus has given up on what he prayed fervently and suffered to commission? John 17:20-23

SharonLoveth:
With the Muslim-muslim ticket, I cry for Nigeria

No matter the type of government chosen by the people God is not interested that's why His son admonished faithful people to continue praying for God's government! Matthew 6:10

All human governments are the same!

Jehovah's Witnesses: the one and only Christian organization on planet earth!

Aemmyjah:
It's needless using terms and dates that are unfamiliar to your listeners to avoid confusion, shock or misinterpretation. If we're advised to do so even when giving a talk on the platform or any assignment, how much more to those who don't understand this things at all

Thanks my brother!

At times when you meet some individuals they don't want you to hide anything you know for instance this OP declared:

"The truth and lies of the churches"

I feel it's appropriate to tell him things that will ignite his interest so that he will ask questions to know more.

When i was a Muslim i love straightforward things no matter how strange or complicating it may sound to others because the whole concept of religion itself is complicated.

So once you're able to make real sense with what you have i i'm OK until i need further clarifications.

Jehovah's Witnesses: The one and only group practicing Christianity!

Well it depends on the God you're talking about {Psalms 115:4-8} as for the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob He answers prayers that's according to His will! 1John 5:14

Most of you only read the Bible that's why we implore you to study our book (Bible) with us so you can gain accurate knowledge of the words of our God.

Jesus is the only begotten Son of God according to the Bible when he was praying he said:

“Father, if you want to, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, let, not my will, but yours take place.” Luke 22:42


This is the same person who said:

“Father, I thank you that you have heard me. True, I knew that you always hear me John 11:41-42

The secret is that Jesus knows his father inside out so he will never ever pray for what is not in accordance with his father's will.

Today you people just pick up the Bible and after reading few verses you look up to the heavens and start making demands without knowing what the will of God is!

crows2ravens:
My advice? Belong to a church. But prove everything you are told through the scriptures. Correct your leaders if need be, and apply wisdom. Jesus Christ will soon come to separate the truth from lies.

Nobody can be saved without belonging to the church {Hebrews 10:24-26} but then you must distinguish between Jesus' one and only church and the rest of Satan's agents claiming denominations under one umbrella. Revelations 17:1, 15 compare to Isaiah 57:20;


So Jesus has returned in the year 1914 and the separation work started that same year as he sent his angels to go picking faithful people who are lost in Satan's deception and gather them into one religion {Matthew 13:30} as for those who just attend any religion carelessly yet claiming they're Christians when they can see that there is contradictions in what the churches are teaching surely they love iniquity so Jesus will condemn them {Matthew 7:21-23} and their destruction will be due to the fact that they never make out time to find out why there is contradicting teachings and conflicting doctrines under the same (mother) religion! Jeremiah 51:13

imagrg:
I was invited to a church by a friend and I observed that it was all about money money the Pastor was after.

Offerings are supposed to be voluntary and not made a task. There is even this offering for the Pastor too and it is compulsory that everyone pays certain dues.

The church has a school and a clinic that most members cannot afford to patronize too.
Then I started to ask myself if the church has become a private partnership concern.

Go and find out how Christianity ought to be in the gathering of Jehovah's Witnesses!

JWs the one and only Christian organization!
