It's good to THINK well before responding to people's comment books like Qur'an are for sell but REASONING FROM THE SCRIPTURES is neither for placement nor for sale so whoever has a copy must either be a JW or have JWs as family members.
The point here is not how Kumuyi got it but why being in possession of a book published by the organization he always called satanic.
Adeboye can never tell his church members not to read the Quran because they will see the difference between the writings themselves but Kumuyi warned his followers strictly not to read anything from Jehovah's Witnesses yet he is reading a book published by the same organization.
That's a matters of real concern! smiley
This one doesn't call for fight nah,! I am only commenting on exaggeration of the poster. It is a pure lie. I have one by accident also. But to think of it, most pentecostal pastors that knows his onions, have read all manners of things. I am only a curious person in one of the pentecostal churches. I read anything about humanity. Anything. I used to have many of your books but now your online library is ok.
Do I have to tell lies about JWs. I does not add anything to me or reduce anything from your delusion.
Cheers old soldier.

Aemmyjah:
Ok
First and only comment from me today to you is this
Go and do your research as to how we began
Russell did not break away from SDA to start anything
He and other students diligently study God's word and share the truths with others
Already, there have been refinements and adjustments
We know better than Russell but we don't owe our functioning to him
We are the only one known to be truly neutral in political and social conflicts and not going to war
The only one preaching worldwide. This is not about what you read online or what church say. Go and ask people around and see the numbers that will mention SDA

The issue of immortality, and unconsciousness at death has been long disputed for many centuries. Was it SDA that first taught it? It's not the issue about the soul being mortal or not but the truth about it.
Now, go and take a survey and ask people which religion believes that the soul does not die or suffer in hell, which one will never go to war. Do a local and international survey where you can and get back to me if have established whether we have established our own Bible based beliefs or a mere copy of what someone did.
I need not know SDA, I need not know other churches, I need not know Russell but the knowledge I have from the Bible is more than sufficient and I still have more to learn.
Again, we know better than Russell and anyone who live around that time.

As if you even know SDA, unless you go to check online. They may claim they don't go to war but we hardly here of any Adventist dragged online or persecuted or hayed because of neutrality and neutrality during political or social conflicts bring about indifference and hatred... It happened in Hitlers time, Stalin, Putin, Banda of Malawi, it happened during the Biafran war and still happening. We don't just claim to be something but we show it... Ask around who do not go to war and come and tell us
Regarding them, those days, people criticize us so bad that we don't observe Sabbath cos everywhere was locked on Sundays and people were in Church. They say we don't observe Sabbath... That accusations is dead already

People know much about us based in what they study with us, hear from us and read in our publications and our website is the most visited religious website and the most translated website that Google does not even come close at all. Our magazines are the most translated and distributed. I understand your pain sha. I'd have been very envious too if I were you. Your head de hot, hit it with strong ice ❄...

We have not even heard anyone compare us to Seventh Day Adventist. There are other groups they say we have similar beliefs but only few if any mention SDA...
Deeper life are more or less like other churches of Christendom...
That's all my comments for you today.
[b[b]]It truly astonishes me that so many people who are critical of us still spend so much time following our activities[/b]. It leaves me with the idea of a group of fans following their favorite opposition sports team in some ways as they look for weaknesses in their style, and all within less than 24 hours of the announcement.

You do make us feel special.[/b]
Opposition does not bring us joy but Jesus already said his true followers will be hated by all and this include those professing belief in God like it happened to Jesus and the Apostles. You even ally with atheists who say your god does not exist, that your believing in God makes you stupid and Bible is not inspired. You ally with them and other religious group with opposing beliefs just as Pharisees ally with Sadducees and the pagan Romans against Christ and the Apostles. All are offspring of Satan. With their differences, in God's eyes, they are walking on the Broad road with wide gate
Note the bolded.
You don't only preach God's kingdom but also harassment. I have read so much of your publications and still read. They have not changed me. One thing that I gained from the publications is information. That was those days of voluminous and informative Awake!
Secondly, I had to get close to my Bible study with all manners of translations I could lay my hands on.
I was pressurized into becoming a witness but discovered that you people live in delusion.

I thank God for the decision I made to study the bible before delving into the compassless sea of Jehovah's witnesses.

About not caring about others and their books, that is the problem. On the one hand, you close your eyes and mind to knowledge. You live in a fool's paradise.

For we do not dare to class ourselves or compare ourselves with some who recommend themselves.+ But when they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are without understanding.+

2Cor. 10: 12 NWT.

On the other hand, I read your books, I would not allow my children to. I can allow them to read others, even Quran. When they are of age, I can allow them.
Your brother MaximumSide, was a soldier, he should know better. As a lay man in security matters, I learned while in the north in the hay days of Boko Haram, and we were taught that the first rule of security is know your neighbours.
To prevent religious predators, know what they know. It was the same principle I used back then when I started reading the Quran and few Hadiths. I now discovered how Muslims think.

You are deluded brother.

Kumuyi is not one of Jehovah's Witnesses anymore! undecided
Was he before?
My brother' s wife was telling me that. I knew Pastor Kumuyi was in The Apostolic Faith.


One fellow commented that another fellow saw Reasoning from the Scriptures on Pastor Kumuyi's table, It is possible.. I entered Pastor Adeboye's library in the Redemption Camp, I found two copies of Quran on the shelf.

In this case, I think it is a lie, not because he can't have and read. I have one myself, with a brown cover with no colourful pictures inside. It is just about questions and answers.
I think the fellow is lying only if there's another version.

I have JWs as friends. Yes as my friend.

So where did you get this statement of yours from "I doubt you're one Hungering for someone wife when you have yours"



Irrelevant.


Don't mind them. 1914 was not originally from C.T. Russell. It was from SDA.




Watchtower copied failed Jesus returned from SDA.



Just as people say the same about JWs.



Many!

If you're not a shameless lying liar hallgoer miscreant, just a simple Google search would have saved you from this embarrassment.

Watchtower was born from SDA and they have these same beliefs.

1. The soul is mortal, with immortality seen as a sinful belief

2. After death, humans go into a state of ‘unconscious’ where they cease to exist until they meet Jesus Christ

3. Members should avoid war and remain pacifists in the face of violence

So who copied who here?



But listen to your own delusion songs cheesy grin cheesy grin



Says the hallgoer miscreant who doesn't know SDA and JWs have similar beliefs.



So you lack knowledge about them and you're claiming people don't say JWs copied from them. Which means you're just stuck with whatever Watchtower fed you with.



Google is your friend and better still locate one of their churches.

PoliticsRe: Atiku's Lawyer Is Not Smart At All by MightySparrow:
oyichi:
there are two point of defense that tinubu's lawyers are trying to put up, the venue of the deposition and the idea that the deponent should be in court for cross examination, for the venue of the deposition, he argued that it lack merit because it was not done in a court, atiku's lawyer is supposed to counter it by telling the judges that the venue was ordered by the judge that presided over the case and that tinubu's lawyers were there and didn't object to it, as for the registrar to come for cross examination, there is no need for that because tinubu's lawyers in the US has already cross examined the registrar and it's all there in the deposition, right now, if that dull lawyer atiku is parading can not be smart enough to face olanikpekun, then atiku should sponsor the csu registrar to come here to testify or he should just pack up because those two points will determine the case
Atiku's case lacks merit. On one hand the stipulated 180 days elapsed before they filed the case. Secondly, Supreme Court is not an evidence court was asking Lawyer Uche was asked by the leading judge if he would like the court to set aside normal proceedings in their favour.

I don't know what you mean by the lies. That you're ignorant of what is public knowledge does not make what I said a lie. Do you know that the second in command in Church of God mission took over after Idahosa died and heaven was let loose and it took the court to hand over to his wife who is the Overseer now? Oyedepo is already grooming his sons. Or you think Abioye will ever take absolute charge if he outlives Oyedepo? Think again.
What of Ashimolowo? Adeboye? So many others.
Take time read The Mandate of Living Faith Church, you will find the succession process there. It is an open book, no secrecy.
Adeboye is not the founder of RCCG, I don't think the church has what you are saying. I learned some of the founder's children are pastors in RCCG, nobody hears their names. I don't know about Ashimolowo but I haven't heard of any of his children being a pastor. However, if it so happened that way, what is wrong in me being a lecturer doctor, lawyer, pilot, soldier and my son takes after me?
If it is not wrong, why pastors. If wrong then. God must have made mistake by appointment of Levites.

Vicloteck:
You are fool , your reasoning level is very poor . You want the youths to do everything possible to raise money .
You reason like an idiot. The pastor knows his sheep. No matter how reasonable you want to sound, you don't know the congregation more than the pastor. Check my other contributions on the topic. If the dude cannot cope with the demands of the church, he should go to a church where money is not raised at all.

Again, I reiterate that the pastor knows the worth of his youths.

I was a youth leader before where some of us were bankers, engineers in oil company, in some multinationals. I knew our contributions to our church.
So, Mr. Allwise, the pastor knows his congregation and their worth.

VULCAN:
This came either from a pastor or one who has been brainwashed long ago.

Any thought or action that Jesus would NEVER do is sin.

Only those that have read the Gospels and the Epistles with a sincere heart can identify what Jesus would NEVER do.

Most ministers read the Bible to find ways and means to manipulate.

Everything in this post below reeks of carnality.

Jesus would NEVER reason like that.
I expect this from a ,'spiritual' person. I am in a church environment. If you are sincere, if you have ever run any ministry. Drama, orphanage, crusade.... You will discover that what nonsense most of you write here are out of lack of knowledge of both scriptures and reality. I qouted scriptures to support my own take.
Few months ago, I was invited to a concert by an upcoming singer. Till the programme started, he was still believing God for money to buy fuel. It was pitiful situation. Every pastor, singer, or hustler over there is working by faith. You have people like you, sinless like daddy freeze who never have led a church of ten people sitting in the comfort of your homes and typing comments here.

All of these well known pastors in the early days of their ministries suffered all manners of wants.
It happens in any facet of human endeavours. When it comes to pastors, you are quick to criticize because you are perfect. I read about the late Reinhardt Bonnke, in his early days in south Africa how his wife used to patch his trousers. How Adeboye was struggling with his dog over squirrel, how Kumuyi would not afford a typewriter.
Now you can criticize because you are not carnal.
I am brainwashed. I agree. If the dude is fed up with his church, he should quit. Friendship is by choice.

I quess you are also a Pastorpreneur yourself because what this Pastorpreneur don't understand is that Giving in the house of God in this era of new testament VOLUNTARY and not mandatory I. e. A Willing Giver is free to give however how much decides to give whether big or small, he's not condemned. You just ignore the Pastor
See hypocrisy.

2Cor.9.6 - But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.


Mark.12.41 - And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.
Mark.12.42 - And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing.
Mark.12.43 - And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury:
Mark.12.44 - For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living.


How did Jesus know to the widow cast her last? How did He know the rich that cast little? They were people in His congregation. He knew them. Do you think Jesus praised the the two of them? Don't you think Jesus, though, not going home with the money expected better giving?
Do you know better than Jesus?
The pastor knows his congregation better. They should do the needful.
