MaxInDHouse:This is not arguing I call this engagement the same thing Paul did to bring people to the saving knowledge of Christ Of course once you hear this truth from those who actually know God and you refuse to believe what they share with you from the holy Scriptures That lack of unbelief will stand as a witness against you as you move from one point to another in the things of God if you want to grow in the things of God you must accept the deep things of God which other people who know God have explained to you from the Bible |

MaxInDHouse:1 Timothy 2 3 This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who wants all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth [of Christ]. Recognition Knowledge “Saving knowledge” of Jesus Christ is a “recognition” type of knowing, not just a mental assent type. It is that moment in time when we suddenly truly recognize Jesus for who He is… and submit our life to Him. That saving knowledge moment happens when, in our inner soul, we bow our will to Jesus Christ and acknowledge Him as: the One sent by God to earth to be our sacrificial Lamb, the Messiah of the Old Testament, the Ruler of the Universe who made Himself born into a man in order to provide us all with a way to escape His coming judgement of all sin — and submit to Him. That saving knowledge does not happen just in our mind. It happens with all that we are – in our inner soul, where who we are sits on the throne of our being. That saving knowledge is accepted from the throne of our life. In that moment we dethrone our own throne, and give way to Christ the King! God becomes King of our life, and He takes up residence in us as we are made brand new inside (1 Corinthians 5:16-21) This saving knowledge of Christ is the best form of knowledge when you totally from your inner heart know who Jesus is i don't know how to explain it until you understand this things in your spirit |

They don't need it because they already agreed that Jesus is God so trying to make them have ACCURATE KNOWLEDGE will only amount to fruitless arguments just as you've been having with many of your brethren! ![]() So since they're saved why not leave them for that saving grace and go look for others to save? ![]() Bishopkingsley: |

MaxInDHouse:There are levels of the faith And this is what God command us to teach irrespective of whether they want to believe it or not they can argue about it but we are just tools used by God to speak what he has commanded us to speak We are in this level because other people God commanded obey God are you seeing this and we are great full to God for having this Bible experience in our lives It is important that those who have believed in Jesus Christ to continue to grow in the knowledge of Him. There are several crucial reasons why this is so. We Experience Spiritual Growth...And There Is The Realization Of Judgment To Come Knowing God results in the realization of judgment to come. And The more one knows God, intellectually and experientially, the more they can grow spiritually. But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen (2 Peter 3:18). The Apostle Paul wrote. I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the sharing of his sufferings by becoming like him in his death (Philippians 3:10). It Helps Us To Understand Ourselves Knowing God helps us with a better understanding of our own identity. Before we can appreciate who we are, we need to know who made us and why we are here on the earth. Therefore the more we learn about God, the more we will be able to learn about ourselves. True Worship Can Be The Result God wants us to declare the truth and he will carry the truth and work with it in the life's of those who hear us |

MaxInDHouse:I know you were, but it takes someone with great large and huge swinging balls to believe that God doesnt exist. Having pointed that out, I am sure you are amazed at that level of FAITH that accommodates arriving at such reckless and careless conclusion. On another point, faith comes in different guises, it has different dimensions, levels, degrees and is used for different purposes |

No wahala! In my own faith the president of Watchtower respect me as one of his brothers that's learning from the same teacher (Jesus) a JW from China, Austria, Britain, American, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Nigeria and anywhere on this planet all have the same line of thought so we don't argue over anything scriptural! John 17:22 According to Jesus whatever sparks a controversy within is a sign of Satanic influence so we mustn't allow it, we must maintain the peace if we want God's Holy Spirit to continue with us!

MaxInDHouse:Quote and anywhere on this planet all have the same line of thought Answer Do you know you don't have one line of thought as in the Bible and the line of thought of Jesus And You don't even have one line of thought as the Apostles of Jesus Christ have But truly you have one line of thought as those men who you call GB the funny part they the GB don't have one line of thought as with the Bible or with Jesus Christ Now in our own Christianity Jesus and our pastor and teachers only teaches us to have one line of thought of the Bible and one line of thought of Jesus Christ Are you seeing the difference between us and JW The bible forbids us to follow any Apostles or church we only follow Jesus and the Bible principles so any one whether JW or from our own side who leaves Jesus and Bible principles God command us to rebuke, and correct that person with his written word So our line of thought is only in line with Jesus and Bible rules which no JW followers follow Quote they believe you're wrong, you believe they're wrong and yet you're still saying both are on the same page, this is just preposterous! Answer God says the final one to believe is him and his Bible so if what I say is in the Bible I will win at the end when God comes to pass judgment Paul won Peter when peter refused to understand that gentiles can be saved At the end Peter also acknowledged that truly gentiles can be saved |

MaxInDHouse: BassReeves: MaxInDHouse:The resisted truth here, is a counterfeit for truth It will interest you that, truth passes through three stages. The first stage is ridicule. When a new thing or observation is brought up, it's appears so strange and so because of that gets scorned, and ridiculed The second stage is vigorous opposition. When the new thing or observation has made it past the first stage, people begin to worry that it's here to stay. A few might support the new thing or observation and sense the truth in it, but most will robustly resist because they see it as a threat to everything they're familiar with and as they dont want their illusions destroyed The third stage is self-evident. This is where and when increasing evidence are advanced to support the new thing or observation, which leads to having a few early pedestrians to enter the fray, then end up with, a wider support of the fact, to then, come to accept the new thing or observation, as a given and real truth. |

Bishopkingsley:The highlighted is where you're having serious issues! Because you're only arguing with one another when any of you quote the book (Bible) each person Interprets it to contradict one another! JWs also quotes the same book and all of us have the same line of thought globally! John 17:22 The funny thing is each time we talk about oneness in thought you quickly talk about our Governing Body as if you people don't have Pastors teaching you too. For your information, just as you have Pastors, GOs and so on is the same way we have a GB so if you people can't speak in harmony then something is wrong somewhere! Luke 11:23 Less i forget, you only talk and talk and talk but when it comes to correlating what you're saying with the scriptures that's when it becomes obvious that you're just saying rubbish there's nowhere your teaching is applied! ![]() |

MaxInDHouse:Quote if you people don't have Pastors teaching you too.For your information, just as you have Pastors, GOs and so on is the same way we have a GB so if you people can't speak in harmony then something is wrong somewhere! Answer None of our pastor's including me will open our mouth to tell you that our church can save you or that our church is the mother of God as JW says to their followers NONE of our men of God will tell you to follow their line of thought what they will say is follow Jesus line of thought and follow Bible line of thought NONE of our pastor will print their own Bible and change the things inside them that do not fit into their own traditions and doctrines No pastor will condemn what he can not do in the Bible and he will not tell you that it is impossible to do it even though he can not do it are you seeing the difference between your GB and our own GB (pastor's) Our own GB say the truth even if the truth hurt them but your own GB lie to you so that you can see them as the mouth piece of God Not every pastor can raise the dead or can perform miracle but you Will never see them condemn it because it is a sin to condemn what is in the Bible and what God can actually do on earth There are many differences between your GB and our own pastor's I told you everything in the Bible is real but you say they told you it not real between me and you who is now following the thought the line of thought in the Bible I told you the difference between Peter and Paul and told you how God resolve the situation That is how God responds to any difference between us in our own world The bible is the final authority not the church or the pastor or the GB |

Chai! How i wish you know the blasphemy you're committing right now with this statement when you're all contradicting yourselves and you're not remorseful to claim that such confusion is supported by the God of the Bible! Matthew 12:31-32Well that's why our God differs from yours Sha! 1Corinthians 14:33 ![]() Bishopkingsley: |
| Re: Jehovah’s Witnesses occultic Views Of Christ ⚫⚫⚫ by Bishopkingsley(op): 4:05pm On Sep 23, 2021 |
MaxInDHouse:Matthew 12:31-32 New International Version 31 And so I tell you, every kind of sin and slander can be forgiven, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. 32 Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come. 1 Corinthians 14:33 New King James Version 33 For God is not the author of [a]confusion but of peace, (A)as in all the churches of the saints. You quote Bible but nothing from the place makes sense from what you say You don't know Bible or know God Now listen When you see any place or any one who say they only believe the Bible What that means is they only believe God because Bible is the word of God and God and Bible is one John 1 King James Version 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God God is the word and God is the written word and God is the Bible But because you don't know this and understand it that why you are confused about the things of God Let me say it again the Bible is the final authority because demon can appear to any one and say that you should believe him rather than the Bible So any one who appear to any one and what he says is not in the same line of thought as the Bible God say to us don't believe that person Bible is the final authority not my pastor not the pope not your evil GB JW not any thing ************************************** In the very last commandment in the Bible God resolutely tells us not to add to nor take away from His Word. “For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book (Bible) : If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the Book of Life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book” —Revelation 22:18-19 His Word is absolutely sufficient in itself (Psalm 119:160). The Biblical message breathed out by God is revelation in written form. (2 Timothy 3:15-16). The Biblical claim is that what God has inspired was His written word (2 Peter 1:20-21). When the Lord Jesus Christ said, “the Scripture cannot be broken” (John 10:35), He was speaking of God’s written word (Bible). The events, actions, commandments, and truths from God are given to us in propositional form, i.e. logical, written sentences. God’s declaration in Scripture is that it and it alone, is this final authority in all matters of faith and morals. Thus, there is only one written source from God, and there is only one basis of truth for the Lord’s people in the Church. Affirmed by Jesus Christ The Lord Jesus Christ, Himself, identified truth with the written Word. In His great, high priestly prayer, He said, “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” This was consistent with the declarations right through the Old Testament in which the Holy Spirit continually proclaims that the revelation from God is truth, as for example Psalm 119:142, “thy law is truth.” There is no source other than Scripture alone to which such a statement applies. That source alone, the Holy Scripture, is the believer’s standard of truth. In the New Testament, it is the written word of God, and that alone, to which the Lord Jesus Christ and His apostles refer as the final authority. In the temptation, the Lord Jesus three times resisted Satan, saying, “It is written” as for example, in Matthew 4:4, “he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” In stating “It is written,” the Lord used the exact same phrase that is used in the Holy Bible forty six times. The persistence of the repeated phrase underlines its importance. The Lord’s total acceptance of the authority of the Old Testament is evident in His words found in Matthew 5:17-18: “Think not that I came to destroy the law or the prophets: I am not come to destroy but to fulfill. For verily, I say unto you, Till heaven and Earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law till all be fulfilled.” Bible it is written is the final authority |

Where you failed woefully is inability to reason that each of those arguing with you have different teachers like yourself but they're all claiming Holy Spirit taught them so that keeps you in the dark as to the reason why you're all contradicting one another with the same book (Bible) ![]() Because Jehovah's Witnesses told you that the teaching that binds us together comes from what the GB taught us in the Bible that's why you're hammering on their name.

MaxInDHouse:1 Corinthians 3 Paul and Apollos, Servants of Christ 1.Dear brothers and sisters, when I was with you I couldn’t talk to you as I would to spiritual people. I had to talk as though you belonged to this world or as though you were infants in Christ. 2. I had to feed you with milk, not with solid food, because you weren’t ready for anything stronger. And you still aren’t ready, 3. for you are still controlled by your sinful nature. You are jealous of one another and quarrel with each other. Doesn’t that prove you are controlled by your sinful nature? Aren’t you living like people of the world? 4. When one of you says, “I am a follower of Paul,” and another says, “I follow Apollos,” aren’t you acting just like people of the world? 5 After all, who is Apollos? Who is Paul? We are only God’s servants through whom you believed the Good News. Each of us did the work the Lord gave us. 6. I planted the seed in your hearts, and Apollos watered it, but it was God who made it grow. 7. It’s not important who does the planting, or who does the watering. What’s important is that God makes the seed grow. 8. The one who plants and the one who waters work together with the same purpose. And both will be rewarded for their own hard work. 9. For we are both God’s workers. And you are God’s field. You are God’s building. 10 Because of God’s grace to me, I have laid the foundation like an expert builder. Now others are building on it. But whoever is building on this foundation must be very careful. 11. For no one can lay any foundation other than the one we already have—Jesus Christ. Summary From this place you will see only Only children follow pastor or follow GB mature mind in God only follow Jesus and Bible The person to follow is Jesus Christ and the Bible What you fail to do is look at the people what they say Many people have said to you the same thing I said so you only see the few people who disagree with me by the way those who did not follow the things I say have you not noticed that they do not follow the Bible You can't blame me when someone who refuses to follow the Bible argue with me you should know that person is already not from God Read the Bible those who argue with Jesus never understand God and the Bible so are you going to blame Jesus when Jesus rebuke them and correct them You can't say to Jesus hey you and them are not saying the real truth because Jesus only follows the Bible even when Satan tempt him Jesus kept saying it is written So only the Bible is our guiding word |

Bishopkingsley:They don't read Bible but watchtower and awake publications. The question they can never answer on the issue of the Holy Spirit with their false claim of personification is: What make a person qualified to be PERSON that the Bible didn't use for Holy Spirit? Bible on Holy Spirit attributes: 1. Holy Spirit can speak 2. Holy Spirit has intellectual 3. Holy Spirit can hear meaning He can be communicated to and responded accordingly. 4. Holy Spirit has MIND (in fact this feature alone is enough for any rational being) 5. Holy Spirit has WILL The reason for denying the personhood of the Holy Spirit is because they know Bible portrayed Holy Spirit to be an ETERNAL, UNCREATED & within the Being of God. That's why they came with the lies of personification. So if they accept Holy Spirit personhood, their attack against Trinity will be shattered. That's why no JWs will ever answer you if you ask them; everything that exists is created apart from Jehovah, so was Holy Spirit created? |

The JWs argue in a theological circle, which starts with unitarianism and ends with a denial of the deity of Christ. Hence, the NWT arbitrarily removes “worship” at the places applied to Christ (e.g., Matt. 2:11; 14:33; 28:8-9; John 9:38; and of course, Heb. 1:6). Interestingly, from 1950 to 1970, in Hebrews 1:6, the NWT read, “And let all God’s angels worship him.” Consequently, for over twenty years, the JWs actually taught that “all the angels” worshiped Jesus (who they identify as Michael, the “created” archangel)—a frustrating fact they cannot deny. It was not until the 1971 ed. that “worship” was finally removed being replaced with “obeisance” in Hebrews 1:6. Furthermore, from 1898 to 1964, the Watchtower (the JWs leadership), has taught that “worship” is properly given to Jesus—it’s a matter of (accessible) record. Note these examples: “Yes, we believe our Lord Jesus while on earth was really worshiped, and properly so. It was proper for our Lord to receive worship in view of his having been the only begotten of the Father and his agent in the creation of all things, including man” (Zion’s Watch Tower, 1898, July 15, p. 216). “Jehovah God commands all to worship Christ Jesus because Christ Jesus is the express image of his Father, Jehovah….” (Watchtower, 1939, Nov 15, p. 339). “[W]hosoever should worship Him must also worship and bow down to Jehovah’s Chief One in that capital organization, namely, Christ Jesus….” (Watchtower, 1945, p. 313). In 1964, they finally changed their view and taught that worshiping Christ was idolatrous: “It is unscriptural … to render worship to the Son of God” (Watchtower, 1964 Nov 1, p. 671). The inconsistencies of the Watchtower are and have been astounding! DANIEL 7:14: “And to Him was given dominion, glory and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations and men of every language might SERVE Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which will not pass away; and His kingdom is one, which will not be destroyed.” The term “serve” (“worshiped,” NIV) is from Aramaic word, pelach (Heb. palach). When this term appears in the OT where God is the object, it carries the idea of religious worship, services, or rituals performed in honor to the true God. |
