I BELIEVE IN 1914! smiley
Lies, you rely on the records of historians in your research. So stop peddling lies. Jerusalem was not destroyed in 607 BCE but twenty years later, 586/7 BCE. Besides, that event of Nebuchadnezzar's has nothing to the interpretation your GB gave to it. Anyway, New lights/lies would correct it in the future.

We are saying the same thing nah!

The lies of Muslims makes them violent so that they can give up their lives to destroy other lives. John 8:44

But the LIES of Jehovah's Witnesses makes us:

LOVE our God and neighbours! Mark 12:29-31; Galatians 5:22-23

Visit our neighbours ready to share the JOY we have! Matthew 10:5-7; Galatians 5:22-23

Promote PEACE everywhere we go searching for friends of peace! Luke 10:6; Galatians 5:22-23

Calm with PATIENCE always hoping for God's Kingdom to come and solve mankind's problems when others pick up weapons against one another killing themselves! Matthew 10:16; Galatians 5:22-23

Practicing KINDNESS sparing our time to talk about God and His good works with others! Malachi 3:16; Galatians 5:22-23

Exemplary in GOODNESS so that without any evil deeds our group name always comes to your mind when talking about good people! 2Timothy 3:17; Galatians 5:22-23

Strong in FAITH so you can talk about what we believe as one global family! John 17:22; Galatians 5:22-23

Easygoing with MILDNESS when your kind are violently protesting against constituted authorities! Matthew 10:16; Galatians 5:22-23

Having SELF-CONTROL whereas you people easily get brainwashed to carry weapons in support of some smooth talkers and fight dirty to kill or get killed! Matthew 26:52; Galatians 5:22-23

Well Isaiah has said it all about you people! Isaiah 5:20 smiley
What are all these have to do with manipulations of the delusional discreet, discreet slaves. This people can subtly lie in hypocrisy. See them selling their lies to the sheepish devotees who applaud themselves like people under the influence of laughing gas!

The Governing Body is discovering Jehovah anew or having a better understanding of their commitments in the kingdom's services. This is particularly about who is qualified to go from door to door. This is a practice which was held for almost t a century. Suddenly Jehovah has disqualified some members.grin

Members of Jehovah's Witnesses are notoriously known for criticizing other Christian denominations while they cover their lies. For instance, maximumSide and co. have been harassing others doing business in God's name. In whose name is Governing Body building and selling buildings?

Did Jesus' teaching stop all people from doing the wrong thing?

NO!

But as many as those OBEYING him these are the ones who will have everlasting life. John 3:16

So whether the world OBEY Jesus or not i and my household will forever remain OBEDIENT to Christ Jesus!

Christianity EtcRe: Does The Quran Depicts Allah As Forgetful Or Confused? by MightySparrow: 2:33pm On Dec 27, 2024
Almunjid:
Both the Quran and the Bible emphasise individual accountability for one's actions. The Quran states, "No bearer of burdens shall bear the burden of another" (35:18), while the Bible similarly asserts in Galatians 6:5, "For every man shall bear his own burden." It is therefore unscriptural to hold all Muslims accountable for the misdeeds of a few. Those who have issues with anti-Christian should address him specifically, without involving other Muslims who are not involved in the matter. After all, engaging in religious debates on Nairaland is not inherently wrong, as long as such discussions take place in the appropriate forum sections. The problem arises when uninterested individuals are dragged into these debates against their will.

In the case of anti-Christian and TēnQ, based on their conversations, the former critiques modern-day Christian practices and doctrines he believes contradict their scripture. In contrast, TēnQ targets Allah—the Arabic word for God—and Prophet Muhammad. Regardless of their differing approaches, it remains inappropriate to involve unwilling participants in their arguments. They should respect others' boundaries and confine their discourse to those who are interested and willing to engage.

Shalom!
Thanks brother. Like I pointed out not until you copied me, I have never noticed you on this platform. It is Muslims who would find problems with other people's religion and religious books. I don't really think that Allah has made Muslims the police of religions. It is this same Muslims that have problems with traditional worshippers. Why is that?

I don't have problems with any Muslim or. Islam but if anyone makes any irresponsible comments about my religion, the way I practice ir, and my own Jehovah has not reported me to him, there is no Law that prevents me to come heavily after such. As a Muslim, face your religion and I face mine
You can preach your religion to me, if I see anything good in it I could change. If you try to rubbish my religion like one Yussuf Adepọju calling Jesus a thief. I will respond.
Like I said, talk to the warmongering Muslims on this platform. They are your brothers.
If not, there is no way decent Muslims like you will not be caught in-between the crossfire of e - warriors.
All of this fights or most of it are initiated by errant Muslims in this forum..

God bless you Sír
Christianity EtcRe: Inaccurate Rendering Of New Word Translation by MightySparrow(op):
MaxInDHouse:
Think about the highlighted:

Imagine if nobody is supporting anyone during disputes!

Jesus was teaching those listening to him:

‘You must love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” Mark 12:31

Talking about raising weapons to support one person against another Jesus said:

“Return your sword to its place, for all those who take up the sword will perish by the sword" Matthew 26:52

So Pharisees reason exactly like you saying:

"If we let him go on this way, they will all put faith in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.” John 11:48


If we allow him to continue preaching and teaching about PEACE all our people will out faith in him and there will be no one to defend our nation when the Romans decides to take over our land.

So you're thinking exactly like Jesus' enemies today! smiley
You don't get it. My belief does not stop anyone aggressor from doing his work neither do yours. Since you joined JW organization, have you been able to prevent any wars?

Continue with your beliefs it doesn't change anything.

I told you, I have never handled any guns in my life as a soldier, hunter, or armed robber or cultust. I don't have fear for perishing with weapons.gringrin

Anyway, does it really matter to God how anybody dies?

Are you really sure because as you are no longer a weapon bearing soldier you cannot die by bullets.gringrin.

I don't have such fears. I just live my life, lively with peace of mind and clear conscience towards God and man. gringringrin

I don't fear Armageddon either! gringrin

This shows how shallow your understanding is about life in general.
My brother may get annoyed with his close family members just as it could happen anywhere because of human nature but he will never ever raise a weapon in support of anyone against anybody that i can assure you.

So get it straight that being a believer doesn't mean someone will never act out of anger but you can never ever persuade a Christian to join you in fighting and killing your neighbours due to politics and racism! smiley
The same way, I have never handled a gun in my life. You. served in the military, you are familiar with weapons. However, that you are taught not to kill people in your organization does not prevent any aggressor from predating on you. I believe in the military. Imagine, if there was no Albert Einstein, no atomic bomb, all Israel would have being wiped out. I know God is punishing them but also promised a remnant.
Apart from that, Sir, there is nothing you can do against war and warmongering.

Almunjid:
Lol, it's not like I built my house next to the market – the market just decided to show up right next to where I live! So, I have every right to sue them for all that noise pollution. grin As for that guy, TēnQ, he keeps starting new threads just to talk about Islam, and honestly, most of his topics are pretty blasphemous. I tried to reason with him a few times, but he's just so stubborn and closed-minded that it's impossible to get through. Eventually, I figured it was better to just avoid him since he's not actually looking for answers, but just wants to argue for the sake of arguing.

But he just won't stop bringing up my name and sending me these frustrating arguments. The thing is, I'm a Muslim, and believing in Jesus is a crucial part of our faith – you can't even call yourself a Muslim if you don't believe in Jesus. That's why I can't just create threads insulting Jesus like he does with Prophet Muhammad. Most of my religious discussions are based on topics that are already on the front page or when I'm dragged into it by that guy. That's why I want him to stop mentioning me.

Personally, I believe that all followers of Abrahamic religions are essentially practicing the same faith, even though our different doctrines and the names we call ourselves make us appear separate. The descendants of Abraham – Isaac and Ishmael – have one God, the God of their father Abraham. You can call Him YHWH, Elohim, Alaha, or Allah – it's all the same. So, all Abrahamic religions should, in theory, be worshipping the same God.

However, different Man-made doctrines and interpretations have caused confusion, leading various sects within Abrahamic religions to believe that they're the only ones worshipping the "true" God of Abraham while others are seen as unbelievers, idol worshippers, or are condemned to hell for not accepting specific messengers of God. But we were all created by the same God, and we should remember that He's not the one causing all this confusion – we are. It's best to leave the judgment of who's right and who's wrong to Him.

Peace!
Personally, I don't have any problems with Islam or Muslims. You Muslims start problems on this platform and even outside. I am a Yoruba man, before now, imams teach their religion and we don't have any problems with that until certain elements are rising now with a negative stereotype of Islam. If you can talk to the likes of antichristians and other warmongering Muslims in this platform, all will be fine. If they continue in their attack and fraudulently defaming our book and belief, I don't promise you a none mention.
These characters soil your white apparels with their behaviour. Until now, I never have recognized anyone going by your name on Nairaland.
Cheers, good brother.
Christianity EtcJW: New Light Or New Lies About 1914? by MightySparrow(op):
The 1914 of JW organization is one of the central doctrines being touted by the adherents of the religion. This doctrine and date are not without their own challenges within the organization itself. Many brave members have left the organization willingly, some timid ones, because of shunning, remain imprisoned in their consciousness, and many have been disfellowshipped.

In spite of the clear evidences against the date and scriptures twists and inferences, the Governing Body would rather provide a 'New Light/Lie' to massage the doubts of delusional followers.

You don't know the indepth meaning of "blind" that Jesus is talking about.

I will enlighten you.

Only Jehovah's Witnesses have a GOVERNING BODY that taught them to love their fellow believers in other countries so that when your own people are fighting and killing themselves over politics and racism Jehovah's Witnesses are looking for ways to care for their brothers and sisters. Later you will start crying due to the death of your loved ones killed by no other people than your fellow worshipers in other countries all of you claiming you're following Jesus who commanded his disciples to love their fellow believers the same way he love them. John 13:34-35

Now who are those following blind leaders?

Is it Jehovah's Witnesses who love their fellow believers as Jesus loves and their neighbors as themselves or you people who suddenly turn blind to all the commandments of Christ in the face of POLITICS and RACISM? cheesy

Courz:
MightySparrow, I have actually mentioned this Bible verse JWS changed in my thread about their manipulated Bible verses https://www.nairaland.com/8088472/manipulation-bible-verses-jehovahs-witness
Addressing the topic of the thread, this is a typical example of Jehovah's Witnesses twisting and changing Bible verses to suit their own manufactured doctrines. If you notice very well, Jehovah's Witnesses have a very big problem with who God is, who Jesus is and who the Holy Spirit is. They had to change the Bible verse to suit what they have lied themselves as to what The Holy Spirit is. The Bible has already proved that the Holy Spirit is a Person. He speaks, He gives instructions and warnings, He grieves, He intercedes For Christians, et.c. Being baptised under the authority of the Holy Spirit is another proof that he is a Person not a Force like Occultists believe. The Holy Spirit speaks to Jesus disciples on different occasions in the Bible but Jehovah's Witnesses don't like that as it totally contradicts their Belief that the Holy Spirit is just a Force and not a person.

For Jehovah's Witnesses in this thread to confidently back up their change in this Bible verse proves that this is what you will get when The Holy Spirit is absent in a Religion. Since JW Leaders admitted that they don't work with the Holy Spirit but instead work with Angels which are the sources of their doctrines and False Prophecies, you should not expect Truth from them. The Holy Spirit cannot work with people that have denied him.

This is the danger you will be under if you choose to join JWS. You will be brainwashed to be proud of Blasphemy.
Thanks so much my friend.
I have been asking maximumSide if he knows God as he knows the Governing Body and their doctrines? He always dodge the question with harassment and abuses. This is the problem with Jehovah's Witnesses.

I pointed out here on this platform as infered by Yoruba elders, ' anyone who would claim wrong inheritance would have wrong story to backup his claim '

For Jehovah's Witnesses to claim your house after rapture, they will have to suit themselves with some delusional inferences from twisted Bible interpretations.gringrin.

I want to ask maximumSide, who now lives in the house JW organization built for Abraham and others when the Bible clearly says these were looking for a country who builder was God.
In their delusion, the detailed engineers to build for God.

Sparrow continue LYING ; grin
LYING miscreant deceiving himself making false claim about Acts 8:29.
Oga,Acts 8:26-29 is in your Bible. Study it thoroughly.
The angel in Acts 8:26 is the spirit that spoke to Philip in verse 29.

Stop LYING and deceiving yourself.
Until you admit that you lied about Acts 8:29, don't expect any other response to that your lengthy post.
Simple the passage you qouted refer the same event.


Acts.8.26 - And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.
Acts.8.29 - Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.
Acts.8.39 - And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.


1. Angel of the Lord is a spirit.
2. Angel of the Lord is a being
3. The Spirit ( possibly the Angel) and or Holy Spirit
4. The Angel or the Spirit carried Philip away.


So, you have not made any meaningful contributions here.

Similar thing happened to Paul on his way to Rome and both Angel and Spirit attended to him.

So if you say the angel appeared to Philip, he certainly must have seen the spirit.

The question still remains: of all the essence referred to as spirits including God (Jehovah) are beings.
Why is it that the JW's Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost is the only influence not a being whereas other spirits are beings?

Simple question not wailing.
Christianity EtcRe: Inaccurate Rendering Of New Word Translation by MightySparrow(op):
Michael547:
Below is 1 John 4:1 in the screenshot below.
Is the rendering of NLT wrong?

What is the meaning of 'spirit' in that verse?

Does that verse mean that both demons and holy spirit speak directly with Christians or that people are inspired by demons or holy spirit to speak so that a Christian can test to perceive which is from God?
That is the reason you are encouraged to develop the gifts of the Spirit one of which is discerning of spirits. Christianity is a practical religion not mere quoting scriptures, and doing damage to scriptures producing faithless folks. If you allow the Spirit of God to take ascendance in your life, you will have the experience not the argument.grin

It's there.
grin

Sparrow hypocrite, your WAILING and empty tantrums is a cry for attention.
For 3 major reasons, sparrow hypocrisy must be exposed.

*1
@ 1 Timothy 4:1 NWT,"spirit" is in the footnote.
Oga, How many of your Trinitarian mentors placed Gehenna in footnotes in their translations?
Spirit @ 1 Timothy 4:1 is not a being.

"I love wine and spirit" .
The statement doesn't mean nor imply that "spirit" referenced any being.
"The Journal said", "the Newspaper said,(you hear this statement every day during newspaper headlines reviews, but you Sparrow doesn't fault it. grin).
The Journal or the Newspaper are not beings.
I said "his anger speaks volumes does not mean that his anger is a being or any being

Jesus said "wisdom bears children" neither imply nor suggest that wisdom is a being..


*2
Jesus Biblical evidence @ Luke & Matthew gospels said holy spirit is God's finger (the hand of God upon Christ & other prophets of old, Isaiah 61:1).
Exodus 8:19, Egyptian magicians agreed with Jesus.
Holy spirit is God's finger,a force in action.

*3
@James 3:6, James the apostle wrote Gehenna, did your Trinitarian mentors write Gehenna?
No , is the answer.

@Luke 12:5.
..@Mark 9:43. @Mark 9:45.
@.Mark 9:47. ...
@Matthew 5:22. ...
@Matthew 5:29. ...
@Matthew 5:30, all these verses, Jesus Christ said Gehenna, did your Trinitarian mentors write Gehenna that Jesus said?
No.

Oga Sparrow,go and query your Trinitarian mentors for their bias @James 3:6.,
Luke 12:5. ...,
Mark 9:43. ,
Mark 9:45.,
Mark 9:47,
Matthew 5:22,
Matthew 5:29.,
Matthew 5:30,

The core of a living being is called spirit.
The attitude with which a thing is done is called spirit.
None of these has Hebrew interpretation for spirit. I
In fact, from Aramaic/ Hebrew to Greek to English is something else.
So English has so many words that has many meanings.

God is a spirit being John 4:24
All angels are spirits , they are beings
Satan is a spirit, a being.
Pre incarnate Jesus was a spirit, a being
All spirits are beings.
God, Satan is, angels are beings.
Holy Spirit is of all is a force.




Matt.3.16 - And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove,
1. Holy Spirit can be seen and lighting upon him:

Matt.4.1 - Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.

2. Holy Spirit can lead, having a sense of knowing and control

3.John.16.13 - Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

4. The Spirit has self awareness, and consciousness, and can take decisions.
These are words of Jesus Himself.

5. Isa.40.13 - Who hath directed the Spirit of the LORD, or being his counsellor hath taught him?

Even in the Old Testament, the spirit is not viewed as a force,

Isa.48.16 - Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.

The Spirit can single handedly or jointly send a person on an errand.

Ezek.8.3 - And he put forth the form of an hand, and took me by a lock of mine head; and the spirit lifted [/b]me up between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the door of the inner gate that looketh toward the north; where was the seat of the image of jealousy, which provoketh to jealousy.

7. Acts.8.29 - [b]Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.


The Spirit talked, not inspire, talked to Philip

8. Acts.23.9 - And there arose a great cry: and the scribes that were of the Pharisees' part arose, and strove, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an angel [/b]hath spoken to him, let us not fight against God.

The Bible people did see angels and spirits as brings though, the word spirit means wind also.

9. Another word for Holy Spirit is Holy Ghost

Acts.19.2 - He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.

Spirit and holy Ghost in any language is seen as a being, in a class of unseen essence but real. They are used interchangeably in the Bible.
Jesus Himself, the creator of all things, confirm the existence of ghosts or spirits as beings only the do not have flesh and bones.

Luke.24.39 - Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; [b]for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.


10. Holy is added to the name ghost or spirit to give clear identity to a particular spirit. A name is primarily for identity.

11. So how come that all spirits are beings and only the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit is an essence?

MaxInDHouse:
The Author of the Bible purposefully inspired the writers to pen down words that even the writers can't comprehend:

Now as for me, I heard, but I could not understand; so I said: “O my lord, what will be the outcome of these things?” Daniel 12:8

So God only instructed them to pen down the words and conceal it because it's meant for His true worshipers in the end time:

Then he said: “Go, Daniel, because the words are to be kept secret and sealed up until the time of the end. Many will cleanse themselves and whiten themselves and will be refined. And the wicked ones will act wickedly, and none of the wicked will understand; but those having insight will understand." Daniel 12:9-10

So it's not be understood by all kinds of people only faithful ones {2Thessalonians 3:2} but how can faithful people identify their kind in the end time?

God answered:

"At that time those who fear Jehovah spoke with one another, each one with his companion, and Jehovah kept paying attention and listening. And a book of remembrance was written before him for those fearing Jehovah and for those meditating on his name" Malachi 3:16

Jehovah said in this way they will identify their kind among humankind:

And you will again see the distinction between a righteous person and a wicked person, between one serving God and one not serving him. Malachi 3:18

But what will they be doing after identifying themselves?

God answered again:

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

After identifying themselves they will us God's word as yardstick to settle their disparities peacefully among themselves, divert their resources into production of food and information materials, stop the making, buying, selling and using weapons against their neighbors and vow never to raise weapons against their neighbors again!

This is the reason why God gave mankind that book called Bible not for each individual to say:

"I understand God's word because Holy Spirit interpreted it for me"

But when Satan comes with his schemes like politics and racism to make you hate your neighbour you trash your Bible and join others in fighting and killings your neighbours including your so called fellow believers! Revelations 6:3-4

That's why Jesus said only those doing the will of God will be saved not those calling him "Lord Lord" Matthew 7:21-23

So if you don't know the purpose of God's word you will choose whatever interpretation that pleases you but such will never help you to RECOGNIZE the gathering of Holy Ones! Luke 17:37

The post is not meant for you rather it's meant for other followers who may wish to know why Ezra need to add meaning to the reading of God's word!

Ezʹra opened the book in the sight of all the people, for he was above all the people. As he opened it, all the people stood up. Then Ezʹra praised Jehovah the true God, the great One, at which all the people answered, “Amen! Amen!” and lifted up their hands. They then bowed low and prostrated themselves to Jehovah with their faces to the ground. And Jeshʹu·a, Baʹni, She·re·biʹah, Jaʹmin, Akʹkub, Shabʹbe·thai, Ho·diʹah, Ma·a·seiʹah, Ke·liʹta, Az·a·riʹah, Joʹza·bad, Haʹnan, and Pe·laʹiah, who were Levites, were explaining the Law to the people, while the people remained standing.  And they continued reading aloud from the book, from the Law of the true God, clearly explaining it and putting meaning into it; so they helped the people to understand what was being read. Nehemiah 8:5-8

This is why only Jehovah's Witnesses can act in line with God's will by doing all what the above prophecies listed as if they own the Bible whereas all other religions can't confidently point to the FINE WORKS their faith is producing in line with God's word! smiley
The crux of the matter is the removal of the words, ' the spirit says expressly'. Saying expressly' and ' inspired word.'
Mind you, Paul was writing to Timothy directly and used exact words.

The question is.
1.Did the 'spirit' say....

Inspire and saying are they the same?

However, the 'inspired word clearly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to misleading inspired statementsa and teachings of demons,

The attempt to make Jehovah's Witnesses present to their congregants a text to promote their bias in the interpretation from the original texts, some obvious mispresentation and translation is easily observed. One of such is the passage of the Bible above
Bearing in mind that Paul was writing to Timothy, to avoid that the Spirit was the one speaking, being a force, that cannot talk, or having consciousness, it has to be replaced with the ' inspired word'. The inspirer was removed. The rendering makes the meaning watered down. Which inspired word was Paul referring to? Was Paul quoting some texts or was it his personal revelation by the spirit he was communicating to Timothy?
