I am property of Lord Jesus who died for my sins, so be careful what u say about me

PrincessGlow:
Bros your leaders are misleading you. The only reason they have JW cult-like is fear of losing members. That's it. There are lots of Christian churches that are tight-nit and cult-like and everyone is a sibling. See below - do they look like they care if u r green?

achorladey:
Finally, i can categorically say that you Janosky are a disfellowshipped person.

Really? Ko le to bayii! Be calming down!!!

This one is definitely not a case of holier than thou attitude but rather of I too know than thou attitude.

Janosky:
Excommunicate /disfellowship are synonyms.

The erring, unrepentant individual is forbidden from House to house preaching, making comments at Christian Congregation meetings, etc.

PrincessGlow:
Bros, it us NOT me saying these things. These are FACTS on record mostly provided by JW themselves.
See below

PrincessGlow:
What part of the underlined don't you unferstand?

MaxInDHouse:
He just feel like lying to his own soul.
God's word never promised that His people won't have issues but that they will settle all within themselves and make sure it never escalate to carrying weapons! Isaiah 2:3-4

So if he's looking for a perfect people let him keep searching but when we talk about God's people settling issues amicably within themselves globally then i'll present JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES!

PrincessGlow:
More

PrincessGlow:
Exactly. So holier-than-thou abstaintion from military doesn't make u better than anyone else. So stop citing it. If anything it makes u worse - it marks u a hypocrite or, worse, a coward!

PrincessGlow:
Muhammad Ali refused military service because his religion forbade it. His religion was Nation of Islam!

PrincessGlow:
They stay with fellow Mormons. Now you know. So does any tight-nit or cult-like Christian group

MaxInDHouse:
When atheists and agnostics wants to deceive themselves they'll say all religions are the same but deep down in their hearts what they just don't want is restraint from doing anything they want. Believing in the existence of God will weaken their ego and rebellious mindset so even when they see the truth they will pretend to be blind!
I was a Muslim and there is just one thing that renders all religionsts and their god helpless: Politics!
Their anxiety regarding good governance kills their so called faith as they have to take sides in the face of politics. So there can never be real love when politicians (who have no interest in faith) use smooth talks to lure them into killing their fellowman.
But JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES have conquered as they're totally against Politics! John 15:19, 17:14-16
The oneness in thought has killed Politics and Racism in the midst of JWs, that's the secret of the LOVE, JOY and PEACE permeating the gathering of JWs!

PrincessGlow:
Where do you think those Mormon missionaries stay when they go to remote places. Some Christian cults even live together and own everything communally

MaxInDHouse:
Whenever i see someone lying to his own soul i do laugh at them because i don't know what they stand to gain in deceiving themselves!
Just imagine we are talking about LOVE and a grown up as in adult opened his mouth and say "Muslims have LOVE"
Let him go to any part of the world and practice Islam there with them, surely they will treat him well since he's using his head to hit the floor in their mosque along with them, but let racial disputes arise then he will know that he's a dead meat in the midst of his fellow believers in Islam because even Muhammad was confused regarding racism. How do i mean? He taught his followers to fight for their country definitely if there is ongoing war between Nigeria and Chad followers of Muhammad from both sides will automatically become enemies!
So how can there be real LOVE in Islam?

PrincessGlow:
There are many Christian cults whose members from any part of the world will not only house another member from any part of the world but be willing to leave the house for them if they need!

PrincessGlow:
So have muslims

PrincessGlow:
Stop saying what u don't know. Just because you've been through a country doesn't mean u know what's up there. See below, screenshots if what people are saying

PrincessGlow:
I don't know why u r fixated on 1975 when the JW have predicted other years, the biggest being 1914.
These are verbatim quotations:


Some specific predictions by Russell:

"And, with the end of A.D. 1914, what God calls Babylon, and what men call Christendom, will have passed away, as is already shown from prophecy." Studies In The Scriptures, Vol. III, (1897) 2
bullet "...we consider it an established truth that the final end of the kingdoms of this world, and the full establishment of the Kingdom of God, will be accomplished by the end of A.D. 1914" (1889). 3

bullet "In the coming 26 years, all present governments will be overthrown and dissolved." Studies in the Scriptures, Vol. II, (1889) 2
However, in 1912, he back-pedalled somewhat:

bullet "...he wrote that, while the prophecy remains valid, the power of the Gentiles could end either in October 1914 or in October 1915." 4
"Russell's movement expanded rapidly" in the years leading up to 1914. 1

However, the year 1914 came and passed without the visible appearance of Christ, the massive genocide, and the new Kingdom of God. The WTS regarded the start of the World War 1 as confirmation that the process leading to TEOTWAWKI, and to Christ's return, had started. They decided that 1914 was the year that Jesus invisibly began his rule from heaven.

1915, 1918, & 1920
In 1914-NOV, immediately after Russell's prophecy had failed, he wrote that the period of transition could run a "good many years." 4

The Watchtower magazine suggested that the destruction would happen "...shortly after 1914 with the utter destruction" of other Christian denominations and the inauguration of Christ's millennial reign. They first predicted that this would happen in 1915. Drawing a parallel with the destruction of Jerusalem by the Roman Army in 70 CE, the authors of the 1915 Edition of "The Time Is At Hand" wrote:

"The Gentile Times prove that the present governments must all be overthrown about the close of A.D. 1915; and Parallelism above shows that this period corresponds exactly with the year A.D. 70, which witnessed the completion of the downfall of the Jewish polity." 5

After Russell's death in 1916, the WTS rewrote large portions of his Studies in the Scriptures to reflect the new belief that the year 1914 was merely the beginning of the end of Gentile times. 4
The WTS later delayed the millennium to 1918. 6 A 1917 WTS publication, "The Finished Mystery" stated:

"...in the year 1918, when God destroys the churches wholesale and the church members by millions, it shall be that any that escape shall come to the works of Pastor Russell to learn the meaning of the downfall of Christianity." 7

That year also passed uneventfully, except for the end of World War I.

The WTS introduced the concept that Christ would establish his millennial kingdom on earth "before the generation who saw the events of 1914 passes away." With many humans achieving a life span of over 90 years, this could place the War of Armageddon at any time between 1914 and the early 21st century

PrincessGlow:
Nope. Those things in school are gangs not cults. That's what they are called everywhere except Nigeria.
JW, Adventist, etc are mild cults unlike serious cults like Branch Davidians or Heavens Gate.

PrincessGlow:
I've never had anything to do with JW. I am only stating FACTS everyone can see for themselves.

See my post above. Argue it with logic. Here again:

I don't know why you can't see that your thoughts and therefore your decisions and choices are based ENTIRELY on how your brain works, your genes, where you were born, the environment you were raised in, etc. NONE of which you chose. If any of those things were changed your choices would change. So your choices were pre-determined by things you never chose. So where's the free will?
----------------
As for the rest, the apostles never gave end of world prediction based on a specific year. JW's did - many times. See below

Krismas:
Tank u for taking time to read my referred scripture. I wanted u to see that, 1. The Vineyard is the kingdom of the earth. 2 The owner is God himself who planted it 3. After which HE LEASED it out to MEN not satan. 4 HE went to a FAR COUNTRY. Heaven. So the kingdom of earth is in leasehold of men. Next, i want us to harmonize our understanding of biblical terminologies. When the new testament say WORLD, It means SOCIAL/POLITICAL SYSTEM prevailing on the earth, not the earth itself. In the leasehold of earth in dat parable, there was the murderous culture, fueled by greed prevalent among the tenants. Which is not the culture of God. The earth is full of strange cultures emanating from satan. Thats why he is the prince of the world, thats why he is the ruler of the WORLD. NO sooner God gives a man an ability, a talent etc, he diverts it towards impure ends to the glorification of satan. thats how human give their authority to the Devil. By getting into his system and doing the will of the devil

MaxInDHouse:
The highlighted!

Peter has finished all apostates with just one question:

If you leave the person or group claiming the only way, to whom will you go?

Please ask any apostate which group have they found performing like JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES Organization? John 6:68

So let them present a better performing group than God's organization!

MaxInDHouse:
Freewill is when man sees what benefits him and grab it with all his strength {Matthew 13:45-46} where you are getting it wrong is your in ability to see the benefits of faith {Hebrew 11:1} many of you thinks that a faithful person is suffering because there are things faithless people will do that faithful people won't do but the truth is faithful people see the benefits of being a friend of God. We are not Deeperlife or RCCG or MFM or Chosen Churchgoers who think they must suffer in this world to enjoy in heaven rather we are enjoying the best of our life now despite all the troubles Satan is giving Mankind. That's what is paining Satan, he knew JWs are having good times despite all the troubles in the world.
So i chose happiness because i can perceive it and i'm 100% sure that if you're also able to grasp it you will do the same! Isaiah 1:18, 48:17-18



They are not wrong in anyway!
When John the baptist and Jesus of Nazareth walked this earth the world was better than this regarding the tension in people's hearts. Anxiety is not these rooted in the minds of the majority. It's unwise people that are not viewing matters from the right sense. To illustrate when the plantain sprouts on it's stem we can all see it but if left unattended to gradually it will routine on it's stem!
That's what we're saying here. Each second the world is fast approaching it's end so while Satan is blurring the senses of many with Scientific discoveries wise people can see that instead of things getting better it's getting worse by the day!
So they got nothing wrong my friend it's unwise people that are thinking they got things wrong.
As for those leaving the organization of JWs that's the beauty of truth because even when Jesus was here performing the greatest miracles mankind ever seen many of his followers left him because they thought he was wrong! John 6:61-66
So if a perfect teacher like Jesus can't keep unwise people don't think his imperfect followers can keep them!

Krismas:
I Ur personal reasons is not enough in dis matter. U need to read d bible more. Try reading first Mathew 21:33-40 if u are serious in understanding the issues abt d kingdom of God

Krismas:
The most potent lie ever told was a half-truth. The devil is an unmitigated liar. Don’t be be deceived by half-truths

PoliteActivist:
Man is not really responsible for his fall as the "brilliant" guy said because he is not responsible for his thoughts. Get the connection now?

PoliteActivist:
Not really.
Science has demonstrated that free will is an illusion. You don't have to think much to see this is true: where do your thoughts come from? You only present your thoughts or decisions but u don't control where they come from. It’s like a spokesman being said to be the person responsible for a decision.
