Both are in charge. But God is in full charge. He just allow satan for a while. His time is coming to an end. We can see in the account of Job that Satan took permission from God b4 attacking Job. So God is still in control.

So, this two to be blamed for our woes since the are in collaboration

We really want to imitate our God
To be impartial, as we know he is
To save all sorts of people is his will
He welcomes all to come and to be his.

So because we really care
We keep preaching ev’rywhere

It doesn’t matter where they may be found
Or what at first they might appear to be

well done brother

MaxInDHouse:

yes oo, and there no greater joy than serving and going out to defend the King of the universe

MaxInDHouse:
Jesus is always right that's why it's in our best interest to BELIEVE (TRUST) his teachings.
Nobody is perfect so we can't meet up with the qualities of God's Holy Spirit {Galatians 5:22-23} as imperfect individuals {Romans 3:23} but when we associate with fellow believers whose objectives is to put on the new personality we will succeed in getting ourselves involved with the Body of Christ which is the congregation {Ephesians 4:22-24} and there we will be encouraged to love and fine works! Hebrews 10:24-25

That's why faithless religionists do refer to JWs as a CULT {Matthew 10:25} because we're united in love {John 13:34-35} and we all have the same line of thought! John 17:22; 1 Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:3

Brother max, your words of encouragement is well appreciated, and I want to say this post has helped me see critical area I need to work on in my ministry of defence. Please send my warm greetings to brothers over there... specially send you my brotherly love 🤗

Kobojunkie:
Why do you folks always pretend the words of a mere servant should hold more weight than that of his master? It never ceases to amaze me how so many of you who claim your salvation comes from Jesus Christ lift His apostles up as Messiah in His place.

What aspect of what Paul wrote there in Galatians 3 vs 6- 9 do you suppose contradicts God's declaration that His new agreement Jesus Christ is only for those who are of the House of Jacob - Jeremiah 31 vs 31 - 34 & Matthew 15 vs 22 - 26 & Ezekiel 36 vs 21 - 28?

Explain to me since I may not see what you probably see.

So if every holy writing in the new testament according to u is about Israel why should any other person practice Christianity as a non Israeli? And please make me understand which one is the word of the master and that of the servant.

Kobojunkie:
I am afraid the ignorance here stems from the fact that you think it makes sense to ignore scripture established context in order that you may instead apply what what written broadly and widely.

Again.... So long as the context of discussion is the Kingdom of God, "the world" is a reference to Israel/Lost sheep of Israel, those of the House of Israel for whom the Kingdom of God belongs. That is what is the case in the Gospel of John, and pretty much the epistles and the much of the book of Revelation

Example, when John wrote of the world in John 1 and John 3, the world in both cases was in reference to Israel..

YHWH is God of Israel. Jesus Christ was sent by His Father only to the Lost sheep of Israel. So everything is localized around Israel in scripture.

---

Also, Jesus Christ is not the one who first referred to His followers as sheep. Instead, God did that as far back as Ezekiel 34 vs 1 - 32 where He announced that He, the good Shepherd, would gather His sheep back to Himself. So, when Jesus Christ announced Himself as the good Shepherd, and referred to His followers as sheep, Jesus Christ was simply mimicking His Father.

please sir if you insist the new testament revolve around Israel, make me understand this two Bible verses _ Galatians 3:7,8

MaxInDHouse:
There's a secret you need to know:
When Jesus established Christianity he referred to his followers as "SHEEP" {Matthew 10:6; John 10:1-16} this domestic pet always feels insecure without the flock it's only in the midst of it's kind that a sheep feels safe so nobody can claim he or she is a Christian if such a person can't present the organization of his or her fellow believers {Matthew 12:19} in fact Jesus emphasized that the first sign of assurance that you're on the road to everlasting life is the global family of peace loving worshipers who will serve as your brothers, sisters, uncles, aunties, mothers and fathers! Matthew 19:27-29

So when you find anyone arguing about Jesus Christ but unable to present his or her family in the house of faith {Matthew 10:6} know that such ones don't want to submit to any form of teaching which will make them a member of humble believers {John 17:20-23} that's why Jesus said he will condemn such ones as workers of LAWLESSNESS (INIQUITY) {Matthew 7:21-23} because they just want to set up their own personal standard! Romans 10:2-3

you are right my brother

Kobojunkie:
YES! So long as the context of discussion is the Kingdom of God, "the world" is a reference to Israel/Lost sheep of Israel, those of the House of Israel for whom the Kingdom of God belongs. That is what is the case in the Gospel of John, and pretty much the epistles and the much of the book of Revelation

Example, when John wrote of the world in John 1 and John 3, the world in both cases was in reference to Israel..

please read this _ Act 17:11 and stop this gross ignorance. I appreciate your input so far, God bless you sir

Kobojunkie:
This isn't an interpretation of any kind as we have 3 works from the same writer to pull references from--- The Gospel according to John, The epistle of John, and the Book of Revelation. In the other 2, references to "the world" has been in reference to the people of Israel, those to whom the Kingdom of God was made available to.

So you mean to tell me "... the whole world..." phrase quoted was referring to the people of Israel? (1John 5:19)

Kobojunkie:
But you didn't respond to my question at all.

Also, why would I want to "play smart" with you?

And what is the question I didn't response to sir

Kobojunkie:
The world === the Kingdom of God, that which pertains only to the lost sheep of Israel.

sir why do you see white and choose to call black? Ask your self again does this your interpretation of that 1 John 5vs19 make sense to you?

Kobojunkie:
This is a post of yours from earlier... ...assuming there was some sort of limit to the amount of evil allowed on the earth.

don't also forget this was given in response to your question

Kobojunkie:
Accountable to in what sense?

now, I can see you are playing smart sir 😀

Kobojunkie:
Until Jesus Christ returns to judge the world — those in the Kingdom of God — those who are of the enemy in the Kingdom of God will continue to thrive. That much is made clear in the Parable of wheat and Tares. There are many more enemies than there are Children of God in the Kingdom of God, thanks to the Broad gate which leads into the Kingdom of God which multitudes will find and enter through.

please sir did you read that portion? Cos I don't get this your comment

Kobojunkie:
I didn't refute any of the scriptures I quoted. Instead, I pointed out that your assumptions regarding what is written are what is wrong!

Read my response again to see this.

here we go again, Please I can't remember refuting nor making any personal conclusion about the topic of this post. So please I will love to be furnished with the details regarding such claim, for the purpose of clarity thanks sir

Kobojunkie:
The "World" described in the Gospels speaks of that which centers around the Kingdom of God — the Lost sheep of Israel, particularly, those of them who are part of the Kingdom of God. So, where John wrote of the evil one being in control of the world...
....John did so in reference to the world as described by Jesus Christ in the parable of the wheat and Tares where the enemy is allowed to thrive in the Kingdom of God until the Lord returns to judge all and do away with those who are not His.
Those outside of the world that is the Kingdom of God are not impacted or affected by that which John described.

As for what is written in Daniel 5 vs 21, indeed, God rules over the entire world, but recall that He allowed men to have their way since after the fall of Adam, so, He is not concerned about how much evil men inflict upon themselves as His one and only concern has been His Israel and His Israel alone. He made this clear in Deuteronomy 32 that Israel is His only inheritance in the land of men. What that means is that even if nations were to nuke themselves today, so long as His Israel is not impacted, God will likely do nothing to stop it. So, you are wrong in assuming in the first place that there is a limit to the amount of evil God is willing to allow.

very good, but why at that 1 John 5:19 quoted in part saying: ".... the whole world lyeth in the power of the wicked one " pls can you explain to us the phrase " the whole world "?

Kobojunkie:
God never did that. God gave men dominion over the world, and after Adam fell, and was judged by God, God never revoked that dominion. So it follows that man continues to retain dominion over the world, meaning that the evil which you see all around you is of man, and not of some being outside of man.

Satan, on the other hand, is God's servant and he does only that which God gives him the power to. In the Kingdom of God, for instance, Satan is in charge of all those who are born-again but continue to choose, either in ignorance or arrogance, in sin. This is what Jesus Christ hinted at in His parables regarding the Kingdom of God describing an enemy with a freedom that is not brought under reign until the end.

I humbly ask sir you go back to the quoted scriptures you refuted, this time, read it slowly and ponder over that! More over we're disappointed you did not attached any scripture in your claimed sir

MaxInDHouse:
He was driven away from mankind, and his heart was made like that of a beast, and his dwelling was with the wild donkeys. He was given vegetation to eat just like bulls, and his body became wet with the dew of the heavens, until he came to know that the Most High God is Ruler in the kingdom of mankind and that he sets up over it whomever he wants!

The true God doesn't interfere in the politics of any nation as long as their troubles doesn't tamper with His own worshipers. Satan is the one using his human agents to rule humans that's why God never appointed anybody as king until the Israelites demanded for a human King {1Samuel 8:7} Jehovah only wanted to use Israel as a shinning example for all the nations under Satan's control. Exodus 19:5
That's why He gave only Israelites His laws so that all others can learn from the Israelites but Satan who knew God's plans made sure that all the surrounding nations hate Israel like shit because if they should like what Israelites are practicing as worship most people will become worshipers of the true God. The hatred was so intense that each time Satan gathers multitude of agents his target is "Jerusalem" the only city where pure worship excels {2Kings 18:17} but then the true God will fight to preserve the center for pure worship! 2Kings 19:35

So Nebuchadnezzar is one of Satan's agents but because the Israelites has turned against pure worship the true God allowed Satan's agents to punish them {Deuteronomy 28:45-48} and that's what made Nebuchadnezzar thought too much of himself with the demons he's worshiping {Daniel 4:29-30} that's what led to what you quoted today @ Daniel 5:21

Jehovah wanted to show His greatness to the king of Babylon that it's not his own power that got him that far it's because He (God) permitted Nebuchadnezzar. Had it been the Israelites kept God's statues ten times of Nebuchadnezzar and 100 times of his armies can't enter Jerusalem because Jehovah will fight for His faithful worshipers! Exodus 14:14 compare to 2Kings 6:15-17

So Jehovah is the owner of heaven and earth but Adam and Eve chose Satan as their God that's why Jehovah permitted mankind to see what will become of their rebellion against Him under Satan's control! Ecclesiastes 4:1; 8:9

Thanks!

Mr Max you did made a lot of sense today.... really sorry for my troubles, but atleast many have learn from you sir. I want to say u made my work a lot easier, thanks boss! Here's my line 070.80.81.14.55 feel free to chat me up

Eviana:
I don't see either as greater...
I see them as equal in a sense.
I use Jesus and God the Father interchangeably both on this site and in real life. I'm usually speaking of them both when I use either Jesus Christ or the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel.
I honor Jesus as my Lord and Savior.
I honor God as my Father.
John 14:6 (KJV)....
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
I always end my prayers, "In Jesus' name."

I believe in the Godhead of :God the Father, God the Son--Jesus and The Holy Spirit.
I acknowledege the deity of Jesus Christ-- hence why I said Creator....the deity places Him as equal to the Father in my eyes.
My apologies for the confusion this may have caused. It can appear complicated and confusing to some.

What matters the most to me is the One who died for me, will accept my confession of sin(s), and can forgive and cleanse me into a new creature in Him.

Ms. Eviana

please I want you to contrast this two Bible portion: John 3:16; 17:3; Who deserved, the most honoure, and tell me what do you see wrong if interchanging the two personality?

MaxInDHouse:
Please don't call me that i'm just your fellow believer in Christ Jesus!

Whenever you read anything that God talks about the existence of what can harm you God is just reassuring you (His worshiper) that even at death if enemies should dismember God's servant's body and burn him/her to harshes God has the record of our character He will restore us perfectly back to life when all evildoers are gone.
In the presence of JEHOVAH death means nothing because He will SWALLOW DEATH FOREVER {Isaiah 25:8} so feel free to ask any question that comes to your mind my brother!



Just be calm when JWs come calling, i never thought i could be this sound scripturally before they came to study the Bible with me.
I thought we had all the knowledge back in the days when i was still a Muslim!

good one sir! Can you shade more light on that account of Daniel 5:21 in relation to the topic of this post?

MaxInDHouse:
This is Maximus one of Jehovah's Witnesses!

Mr Max my door is wide open for you anytime any day sir

Eviana:
No problem...you are welcome.
1. Jesus Christ is Lord, Owner, of the Earth, galaxy, everything etc. and not even the devil himself can do anything unless he get permission from the Lord.

2. There is also a spiritual war going on which consists of good and evil-- one or the other--which has to play out for a specified amount of time.

3. People get possessed by demonic spirits on a daily and when you see all of this sin--death, carnage, bloodshed, unspeakable violence etc., just know that spirits are influencing them.

Ms. Eviana

wow! But between Jesus and God who is greater or who is the creator and most qualified to be the owner of the earth and everything as you said considering this two Bible portion John 14:28; Revelation 4:11... Please I'm open to more learning ma

Eviana:
I appreciate your reply.
While there are tons of scriptures, I'm gonna list a few.
What I can do is list a few scriptures, but you will have to sincerely pray for the Holy Spirit to give you spiritual clarity if still in doubt.

Ephesians 6:10-12 (KJV)
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places


Matthew 28:18 (KJV)
18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

Psalm 22:28 (KJV)
28[i] For the kingdom is the Lord's: and he is the governor among the nations[/i]

Psalm 24:1-3 (KJV)
24 The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place?

Psalm 66:7 (KJV)
7 He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah

Revelation 12:9 (KJV)
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him

Job 1:6-21 (KJV)
6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them.

7 And the Lord said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

8 And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?

9 Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?

10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land[/b].

11 But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.

12 And the Lord said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the Lord.

13 And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:

14 And there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them:

15 And the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.

16 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.

17 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.

18 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:

19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.

20 Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,

21 And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.

John 19:11 (KJV)
11 Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin

1 Peter 5:8 (KJV)
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour


Mark 5:1-13
5 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.

2[b] And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit[/b],

3 Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:

4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.

5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.

6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him

7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.

8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.

9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

10 And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.

11 Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.

12 And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

13 And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand and were choked in the sea.

Ms. Eviana

Thanks ma, but couldn't correlate your exact point. Please will you care give us short summary of the whole quoted scriptures for purpose of clarity

MaxInDHouse:
Your questions are two:

[1] What does God meant in that verse? Isaiah 45:7
[2] Who controls the world?


In the book of Isaiah we should know what God told Isaiah in the beginning of the message:

Then I heard the voice of Jehovah saying: “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” And I said: “Here I am! Send me!” Isaiah 6:8

Here God is asking for a messenger who will go and deliver His message to stiff-necked people and Isaiah responded enthusiastically.

So in the verse you quoted God is assuring His messenger not to fear any evil the recipients may have at heart against His messenger because all the things they can think of He (God) created it. Is it fire? Is it death? Is it wild animals? Whatever they can think of to destroy God's servants is within the things God created.
So if Nebuchadnezzar think of destroying Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego with fire Jehovah formed all the gasses that combined to make fire He can command them to turn to air-conditioner when His own servants are thrown in there while the same fire will destroy Nebuchadnezzar's mightiest men.
If they schemed to throw Daniel in lion's den Jehovah will turn lions to domestic pets for Daniel but the same animals will devour God's enemies.
That's why David could confidently say:

"though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: because you are with me" Psalms 23:4

Let it be known to all faithless people that with JEHOVAH there is no evil anyone can plan against God's servants because He (God) knows everything used to make guns, bombs, teargas, chemical weapons, biological weapons and what have you?

No weapon fashioned against Jehovah's servants will have any success if He is prepared to fight for His own worshipers! Isaiah 54:17


Question number 2:

Satan is the one in control of the earth today {John 14:30; 2Corinthians 4:4; 1John 5:19} that's why Jesus asked us to pray for God's Kingdom (God's government) to come so that God's will should take place on planet earth! Matthew 6:10

God bless you and may you have PEACE!

Bravo! Mr Max why are you extracting only the side that favour your narrative? Well, you made some sense but don't forget God also made similar statement in the following scriptures: 1samuel 2:6; Deuteronomy 32:39; Daniel 5:21... will you say, He (God) made those statements simply for entertainment or just to scare His opponent? Please sir I'm well ready to learn from you boss

Kobojunkie:
Accountable to in what sense?

accountable to amount evil that is permissible in this world

sonmvayina:
Defend him?

yes sir, is it a difficult task?

MaxInDHouse:
Though you've gotten the answer from the only source there is to know the truth: jw.org

I just want to enlighten you on the verse you cited: Isaiah 45:6-8

In order that people may know From the rising of the sun to its setting That there is none besides me. I am Jehovah, and there is no one else. I form light and create darkness, I make peace and create calamity; I, Jehovah, am doing all these things. You heavens, rain down from above; Let the clouds pour down righteousness. Let the earth open up and be fruitful with salvation, And let it cause righteousness to spring up at the same time. I, Jehovah, have created it.” Isaiah 45:6-8

After reading this most people often conclude that JEHOVAH is the one causing the good and evil happening but that's not what these verses mean.

If you're interested in knowing what our God is saying there feel free to approach any JW in your neighbourhood.

I'm Maximus one of Jehovah's Witnesses!

Sorry Mr Max I quoted sonmvyina, the verse was originally not my idea sir but since you are here, can help us throw more light as to why did God used the phrase...." I make... And create calamity? Does it mean Satan is not to be blamed for our woes since God has owned up in that verse? And between God and Satan, who is in charge of the affairs of men?

sonmvayina:
Well...that's life...

you try Sir. Don't forget the purpose of this thread is not to mock but to think logically as go on worshipping our beloved creator. Let's learn how to defend him logically and convincingly. Thanks a lot for your contribution

Dtruthspeaker:
Genesis 1:31 Meaning knives and Fire and acids and water was good. And evil was trapped in a good fruit and kept out of reach in a fruit which was still good, as evil had been kept away from man.

And man ordered to stay away from it. So all was good and no evil anywhere except trapped in a good fruit. So no problem anywhere.

but according to that verse it said: everything God created was good.
