By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained WITNESS that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. Hebrews 11:4

Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of WITNESSES, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Hebrews 12:1



Abel is one of us the great crowd of WITNESSES! smiley

How JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES were called in times past:

• Abraham descendants: after establishing the covenant between Him and Abraham servants of God were referred to as Abraham's descendants yet not all Abraham's children are faithful so the history of Abraham's other seven sons was discontinued in the scriptures except Isaac!

• Israelites: after Jacob's descendants became numerous in the land of Egypt they were known as Israelites but not all Jacob's children remain faithful so God's blessings follows only three tribes of Israel namely Judah, Benjamin and Levi known as Jews till today!

• Jews: from the time of Rehoboam the son of Solomon three southern tribes of Israel stood with him because of the promises God made to David regarding the Messiah that he will be born from the lineage of David but not all Jews were faithful so God kept His promises to the house of David until the arrival of the Messiah and after the Christ (Messiah) only few Jews remain faithful to God's promises and they were referred to as those belonging to the WAY because the young man (Jesus) who proved to be the Christ called himself "the WAY"

• Christians: After members of "the WAY" were noticed in an ancient city called Antioch they were called "Christians" and that's the last name faithful people were called along with faithless miscreants till the year 1931 when God through the mouth of one of his servants declared the GROUP name for all His faithful WORSHIPERS right from the time of Abel till today that GROUP NAME is JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES!

So throughout history JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES has been called by different GROUP names each time they gather as an organization but God hid that name from Satan's agents until the year 1931! Isaiah 65:15

But unlike ancient times when Satan's agents often turn God's organization upside down it is now impossible for Satan and his agents so instead of leaving God's organization they keep accusing the same organization claiming it's a cult yet they remain there worshiping with the so called "CULT"


Judgement is coming and Jehovah has recorded the names of all Jehovah's Witnesses right from the time of Abel until the first century! Hebrews 11:4-34; 12:1 compare to Malachi 3:16 smiley



So Jehovah's Witnesses are connected to faithful Abel? grin

I am glad that what I posted killed the error you believed in. I am still preparing a shocking response for you and your friend Emusan on the witness of Christ. Something that no man can oppose.

The spirit of God is that same spirit of Christ which was given to him by God this Father. Same spirit. No problem with the scripture.

The heresy I refuted came in your own words, saying that people of old who prophesied and preached about the coming of Jesus Christ are Christians. This is heresy and has no scriptural backup for anyone to even refute.

Your heresy means that all Israelite who knew and taught their children about the coming of Jesus Christ are Christians because they preached the message Christ coming, message of the future salvation.

The chief priests, the high priests and all those who killed Christ are his Christians because the same spirit gave them the law they are practicing. Saul was a Christian who persecuted other types of Christians?

King Saul and king David are all Christians. My brother this your heresy no get part 2.


The first time you claimed Jesus was wrong by refuting Acts 1:8. Later you refuted 1 Peter 1 10 - 11.
Instead of whining, just give your explanation of the two passages.


You are not responding.......

Rev.14.6 - And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,

Even Jesus Christ came from nowhere (according to the Pharisees) to see people who are called teachers wallowing in ignorance.

In other words, you are telling us that all Israelites of old before Christ are Christians because it is the same spirit that gave them the laws they are following? They all knew and preached about the coming of the Christ. Like the sameritan woman is a Christian, John 4:25. Abi?

The chief priest, scribes, and Pharisees are Christians who killed their Christ and are busy persecuting and killing Christians for refusing to follow Christian laws handed to them by the same spirit? Beautiful.

Saul who later became Paul was a zealous Christian killing and persecuting another type Christian group for not following what the same spirit told them? Wonders shall never end.

And in summary you are saying that it is Christians that killed Christ. Same spirit gave them the laws they are defending.

The prophets who are still making enquiries of the salvation yet to come are Christians even without knowing the name Jesus through which they can be saved?

The spirit of Christ is the same as the spirit of God. Same spirit that God gave him. He received this same spirit from the his God. So Originally, it the spirit of God. Same spirit from God.

‭Isaiah 42:1-5 HCSB‬
[1] “This is My Servant; I strengthen Him, this is My Chosen One; I delight in Him. I have put My Spirit on Him; He will bring justice to the nations. [2] He will not cry out or shout or make His voice heard in the streets. [3] He will not break a bruised reed, and He will not put out a smoldering wick; He will faithfully bring justice. [4] He will not grow weak or be discouraged until He has established justice on earth. The islands will wait for His instruction.” [5] This is what God, Yahweh, says — who created the heavens and stretched them out, who spread out the earth and what comes from it, who gives breath to the people on it and life to those who walk on it —

Jesus our Lord, the servant of the Most High God confirmed it in Matthew 12

‭Matthew 12:16-21 HCSB‬
[16] He warned them not to make Him known, [17] so that what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled: [18] Here is My Servant whom I have chosen, My beloved in whom My soul delights; I will put My Spirit on Him, and He will proclaim justice to the nations. [19] He will not argue or shout, and no one will hear His voice in the streets. [20] He will not break a bruised reed, and He will not put out a smoldering wick, until He has led justice to victory. [21] The nations will put their hope in His name.

Not knowing that the Holy Spirit of God can also be referred to as spirit of Christ is the reason why you believe the false teaching of Christians killing Christ and other Christians.


I am just discovering another dishonest JW. Why not refute the scripture qouted?

So off point!



This Boomark just appeared from nowhere. all the servants of God from old times were Christians - they brought the message of Christ. I wonder why people don't read their Bibles with understanding.


1Pet.1.10 - Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:

1Pet.1.11 - Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.

1Pet.1.12 - Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.

Summary
1. The Prophets were enquiring for the Salvation in Christ.
2. The same Spirit that revealed to them ( the prophets) is the same Spirit in the time of the Apostles and still at work today .

3. Christianity didn't start from the Upper Room but from ages.

I heard one funny preacher that claimed God is not a Christian God or something like that. He missed it. The message from Genesis to Revelation is one and the same meandering through the course of history.

There is nothing brilliant about this if you don't know what they are actually witnessing about Christ.
Is it not that he was sent by God.
That he came to reconcile us back to God.
That he is the way to God.
He is the mediator between man and God.
That we should pray to the Father in his name.
That his Father is our Father, his God is our God.
Everything is about Jehovah, the God of our lord Jesus, Eph 1:17.

All the things I wrote up there came from the scripture. I wonder the kind of witness you give about Christ that is not to the glory of the Father?


Interesting.

Do you mean Jesus was wrong to have said this?
Acts.1.8 - But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. Romans 3:23-24

Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him! Romans 5:9

I think you don't know Bible either, you know the doctrine of your organization.
Matt.5.27 - Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
Matt.5.28 - But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Matt.5.29 - And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
Matt.5.30 - And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
Matt.5.31 - It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:
Matt.5.32 - But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
Matt.5.33 - Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
Matt.5.34 - But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:
Matt.5.35 - Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
Matt.5.36 - Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
Matt.5.37 - But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.
Matt.5.38 - Ye have heard that it hath been said, [/b]An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
Matt.5.39 - [b]But I say
unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.

This is a meaningful thread to start the day with, though it would take more than four paragraphs to fix the decay in written English amongst Nigerians today.

I am even more concerned about the decline in individual intelligence amongst young people. Youth are afraid to examine evidence and analyse issues logically, instead, they outsource intelligence to ‘influencers’ , many of whom are school dropouts, jesters and people who cannot hold a conversation in real life.
I saw comments on Instablog 10 minutes after the news of Trump’s shooting was reported, and all the comments were “it’s a skit’’.
Until a few years ago, Nigerians were known to be the smartest people in the world, and that is why the smears of fraud, corruption, trafficking etc do not stick on us when we excel internationally. But if with the above, we now have a new generation of Nigerians with the collective intelligence of sea sponges, then we are in trouble.

No experience, no faith, no morals, no grammar, no brakes, no gear, no sense!



And In the latter times, some will refuse to endure sound doctrine.


Good observation my man.
I have been thinking of what will become of Nigeria in about fifty years to come. We are fast losing standards. I was in a church programme yesterday, of course, a pentecostal church, I heard much of noise from the choir. People were jumping and dancing joyfully. It dawn on me, where were the parts rendered by our Orthodox churches? All gone!
In my school those days, if anyone made a grammatical mistake, we. Would echo, ' I dodge the bullet ' grin Today, I am struggling to correct my undergraduate children to write good English.
Our artisans have lost the standards the colonial masters left behind. Houses are collapsing everywhere. Good artisans are no longer available. Youths are not ready to learn anymore.
I even learned that mercenaries are helping undergraduates with their assignments and term papers and projects.

Whereas, good standards are the bedrock of the development of any nation, I think we are losing everything.
