AntiChristian: Even Jesus was not born again!
These Christians sha! Antichrist! You are not a Christian neither do you understand Christianity. I put to you of all special privileges of your prophet you blindly follow shows Islam is a scam. One of Islam’s premiere Muslim commentators, al-Qurtubi, enumerates the privileges Allah gave Muhammad. The following is taken from the Commentary of al-Qurtubi on Surah 33:50. All bold and capital emphasis ours. And any believing woman who dedicates herself to the Prophet if the Prophet wishes to wed (Nikah) her; this only for thee, and not for the Believers (at large). As for what was granted and made lawful (by Allah) to the prophet –pbuh– they are 16 issues:- First: To be fair with the spoils. Second: To (forcefully) take a fifth of a fifth or just a fifth (of the spoils of war). Third: "Al Wisal" (Dimitrius- the fast or fasting. This usually refers to fasting or abstaining from food.) Fourth: To take more than four women. Fifth: To marry, "Yas-tan-kih" (or have sexual intercourse), with a woman who dedicates herself to the prophet). Sixth: To marry, "Yas-tan-kih," (or have sexual intercourse)without the presence (or permission) of a legal guardian. Seventh: To marry, "Yas-tan-kih," without a dowry. Eighth: To marry (and have intercourse) during a state of ritual consecration and purification. Ninth: The annulment of an oath he may make to his wives. Tenth: If Muhammad looks at a woman (and desires her) THEN IT IS NECESSARY FOR HER HUSBAND TO DIVORCE HER AND FOR MUHAMMAD TO MARRY HER. Ibn Al A’raby said, "This is what the servant of the two holy mosques has also said, as was clear to the scholars FROM THE STORY OF ZAID which also had this meaning." Eleventh: That the prophet released Safiyyah (from her captured status) and he considered her release as her dowry. Twelfth: To enter Mecca without being in a state of ritual purification. Thirteenth: To fight in Mecca. Fourteenth: That he is not inherited by anyone at all. This was mentioned in the oath of absolution for when a man approaches death due to illness, most of his possessions are taken away, so that he does not have more than a third left for him. But the possessions of the prophet remained for him, as is evidenced in the verse of inheritance and in Surat Mariam. Fifteenth: His marriage is still considered effective after his death. Sixteenth: If he divorces a woman she remains prohibited to everyone and may not be married, "Nikah," to someone else. "Yas-tan-kih" comes from the word "Yan’kah." For it is said in different forms "Nakaha" and "Istan-kaha" just as it is said "Ajab" and "Ista-jab"… It is permissible to use the word, "Istan-kaha," to mean one whom requests marriage or one who requests sexual intercourse.

MaxInDHouse: They are the representatives of our God!
This is what Jehovah of armies says, ‘In those days ten men out of all the languages of the nations will take hold, yes, they will take firm hold of the robe of a Jew, saying: “We want to go with you, for we have heard that God is with you people" Zechariah 8:23
According to Zechariah these people will go with spirituality Jews {Romans 2:25-29} not because they have seen or heard God directly but because the have heard that God is with our GB (the spiritual Jews) So they are the representatives of the God we want to worship, the Kingdom belongs to them and their spiritual brother and leader Jesus Christ {Luke 12:32} that's why Jesus said anyone who doesn't recognize them can't be in God's kingdom! Matthew 25:31-46  They are your leaders. Not mine. |

There are those who teach the Law, those who teach Grace, there are those who muddle both.
The issue of fashion is entirely decided by designers, culture, and civilization. What was given to Israelites, was a burden they could not bear. In the same chapter. 8 When thou buildest a new house, then thou shalt make a battlement for thy roof, that thou bring not blood upon thine house, if any man fall from thence. 9 Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds: lest the fruit of thy seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of thy vineyard, be defiled. 10 Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together. 11 Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, as of woollen and linen together.
It was a sin to wear clothes made of different materials or eat anything reaped from a multi - cropping.farm.
The Israelites themselves were overwhelmed with the obedience to these rules. |

MaxInDHouse: Why not back what you're saying with God's word the same way i did while expressing my own viewpoint? 
Well what God's word says is that some people will continue learning but never come to an accurate knowledge of God:
always learning and yet never able to come to an accurate knowledge of truth. 2Timothy 3:7
So i believe that a real student of God's word (Bible) should be fully competent and completely equipped as a man of God:
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
God's inspired writings is for teaching, reproving, setting matters straight, disciplining in righteousness so that the man of God who completed the study may be fully competent for every good work!
So it's not a textbook for philosophy but God's direction on how to gain accurate knowledge of God and His only begotten Son! John 17:3
Meanwhile do you think your Papa really teaches what you said in the highlighted?
May you have PEACE!  I have always have the opinion that JWs know Greek and Hebrew but not God. The reason I can't be a part of them. You know I always talk about delusion. I don't think JW people know God. Members can know the GB but not God, Jehovah. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Why Is God's Name 'JEHOVAH' Not In Your Bible? by MightySparrow: 9:16am On Nov 06, 2021 |
MaxInDHouse: Now you are talking like a real pagan!
First of all is the Bible a textbook that should be studied like a subject or manual that needs to be fully understood for the student to be fully competent and completely equipped as a man of God? 2Timothy 3:16-17 Listen to yourself [b]"a Muslim (one who does not believe that Jesus is God's Son) coming first in Christian Religious Knowledge {John 14:6} and you are here saying it without remorse!  Well i just wanted to enlighten you that without JWs people can read the Bible but will never gain the accurate knowledge of God! 2Timothy 3:7 If truly you are a believer in Jesus Christ ask yourself do you think that Muslim truly deserve the grades the world gave him if what he learned never affected his understanding of God's son? John 17:3 That's what studying with the right version like the NWT and true Christians JWs can mean for you! Once you've not studied the Bible with Jehovah's Witnesses i know you don't have any knowledge about Jesus Christ (God's only begotten Son) surely the world's philosophers called your Muslim friend best student in the knowledge of God's word (Bible) but to JWs your friend failed woefully if he never became a believer in the only begotten Son of God (Christian) after all the learning. The Ethiopian Eunuch discussed with Philip within a couple of minutes and instantly begged to be baptized as a Christian! Act 8:28-38 Now judge for yourself do you think the Pharisees, Sadducees, Scribes and other Jewish Rabbis (who keeps studying God's word throughout their lives but never became Christians) had the ACCURATE knowledge of God's word?
That's why i always say that whoever is not one of JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES can't be a real Christian!  You are the one behaving like an illiterate. The academic circle is different from religious. You want to see everything in the light of JW.org. Life is not like that. Few months ago, a Muslim Ph.D in Law bragged another doctoral degree in Christian Religion from the University of Ilorin. In my own church, rather than blindly criticising everybody, we send people to study them. I know a pastor who is about finishing his doctoral degree in Islamic Eschatology. Does it make him a Muslim? Rev. Fr, Prof, Kelly in University of Ibadan, is an authority in Islamic studies. So, that a version is approved for academic purposes doesn't mean that everyone is carrying a Bible without the name of. God. Anybody can read a Bible of one's choice. For me, I choose KJV, I am a trinitarian. Proudly one. You can't force the knowledge of God down anybody's throat. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Why Is God's Name 'JEHOVAH' Not In Your Bible? by MightySparrow: 4:55am On Nov 06, 2021 |
MaxInDHouse: That's the version approved by the churches of Christendom to be used for CRK in schools, so that anybody can teach CRK without indoctrinating any child towards liking or hating any church. Since all Christendom Churches unanimously agreed on the title LORD and GOD in replacement of the divine name, they thought the RSV will be the best so the scholars can choose any church of their choice after all the interpreters of the RSV are members of all different sects. That's why most students who thought they have Bible knowledge through CRK in schools found it strange that God has a PERSONAL name!  You were a soldier, right,? You should know the difference between classwork, theory and research battle. In a a school curriculum, academic and real practice are not the same. I had a Muslim friend who was always coming first in CRK, He is still practicing his Islam today. So many professors of Christian religion are next to atheists. So Christian practice is different from works of professional teacher. I am a trinitarian, yes, I don't use RSV, except to check things atimes for various views. I like KJV. So mentioning God by name or title, to which, does Henot respond? |

MaxInDHouse: No wahala, we are the ones going to preach to them in their homes, many do ask us "who is Jehovah?" Some are amazed when they found it in their copy of the Bible but in some Bibles like the Revised Standard Version the name JEHOVAH was replaced with the title LORD throughout. But it was the Revised Standard Version that first convinced me that what the JWs are saying is true because the KJV only used the name JEHOVAH @ Exodus 6:3; Psalms 83:18; Isaiah 12:2; 26:4 The NWT replaced that name throughout, the Revised Standard Version removed it completely, KJV used it in four places then i agreed with the JWs that surely anywhere other versions use the title LORD it's the divine name that's supposed to be there. Now there is a problem! @ Psalms 110:1 David distinguished between two persons one capital LORD and the other Lord, the KJV used LORD @ Joel 2:32 but the same prophet was quoted @ Romans 10:13 then instead of using the capital LORD to help the reader KJV used "Lord" so that the reader won't know that Paul was quoting Joel's prophecy!
Then i was fully convinced that the NWT that replaced the name "JEHOVAH" is the right version i will be using!  Give a version without Jehovah. |

MaxInDHouse: Thousands of translations (including edited versions) are in circulation today, that's why we need to compare how each translator rendered the verses. When i was contemplating on the significance of God's personal name i read Psalms 110:1
The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool. KJV
Jehovah declared to my Lord: “Sit at my right hand Until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet. NWT
Peter (after his anointing) said this verse is talking about how God appointed Jesus {Act 3:22} so i reasoned that the KJV referred to the two as Lord but if the second lord has a PERSONAL name "Jesus" then the first Lord also must have a personal name and that's what the NWT put there in their own translation!  The second lord doesn't have personal name also? |
