See what I said about not considering things in depth?
WHY would God musle Himself? Where in Revelation does it say there'd never be any more revelations??

My guy you don't believe in God's word so there's no need giving yourself further headache but for the benefit of other followers:

“I am bearing witness to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this scroll: If anyone makes an ADDITION to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this scroll; and if anyone TAKES ANYTHING AWAY from the words of the scroll of this prophecy, God will take his portion away from the trees of life and out of the holy city, things that are written about in this scroll" Revelations 22:18-19

"NO ADDITION NO SUBTRACTION"

So if anyone should come later to say anything apart from this such a person should be ACCURSED! Galatians 1:8 smiley

Wow! Wow!! Wow!!!
Time to bear a thorough witness! smiley

Right from the beginning mankind has always spend fortune on weapons and maintenance of the army only to intimidate and dominate one another! Ecclesiastes 4:1; 8:9

But the true God promised us that during the last days He will send His Holy Spirit and many people will come from all the nations of the earth, they will use God's word to settle all their disparities, they will agree to divert all their resources into production of food and information materials, they will stop building destructive weapons and vow never to raise weapons against anyone again! Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3

Well the one and only true religion on this planet is achieving this today and millions from all over the earth have become peace loving worshipers globally vowing never to kill again but to preach and teach about PEACE!

Below is one of my brothers who formerly should be a killer somewhere thinking of how to destroy lives but today he is one of us, we are JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES! smiley

The correct thing is:
IF ALL CHRISTIANS WERE JW WE WOULD ALL BE MUSLIMS

The below is from Watchtower online. Go read it. They even acknowledge Muhammad did have a revelation

Guy, the post is not addressed to you so stop being presumptuous and concentrate on what is meant for you.

Muhammad never got any Revelations but fabricated everything just to live big.

The Watchtower expressed what the Muslims claimed not what the Bible say the book you're quoting wasn't meant to create controversy but here we are talking about facts based on thorough research! smiley

Stop intentionally marking yourself an ignoramus.
You know quote well he was talking about adding or subtracting from THE BOOK OF REVELATION!
Book of Revelation that almost did not even make it into the Bible!
And please stop saying I don't believe the Bible.
I just won't be a LYING DISHONEST person like you and pretend it has no inconsistencies!

Guy, go read it for yourself and post here where it says Muhammad never had a revelation. They're saying the exact opposite.

And guy, this is a discussion forum - you comment on things and posts you feel like commenting about!

I already told you that the Watchtower did not go into substantiating according to what is written in the Bible.
They presented what the Muslims are saying about their religious book! smiley

Guy, with due respect, did you finish elementary school?
Seriously, what is wrong with you?! You keep repeating the same things. Who turned you into a robot??
The Bible is a BOOK compiled by MEN! Albeit an extraordinary book containing God's words and wisdom!

Go and actually READ for once, not spending all your time on NL making baseless arguments. READ so you can do more than repeat what others told you.
Go READ the article so you'd get the intention, the nuances

My friend, why do you agitate when people don't agree with you?
You've been insulting everyone on this thread simply because they don't agree with you.
You said you're done with me yet you're still coming back to quote me.
If truly you're sure of what you believe there's no need insulting or abusing people up and down.
Hold onto what you have and leave others to what they have.
I hate exchanging hurtful words with people simply because they don't agree with me.

God's word can never be inconsistent that is what i will never agree with anyone but if that's your own conclusion there's no need to be angry just keep to your conclusion while i keep mine! smiley

So when i tell you what we believe you don't have to start arguing with me simply because you have read our books, that's the same way you read the Bible and said God is contradicting Himself so even if i tell you what we believe it's the same thing you will resort to.
Muhammad got no Revelations from God because the Bible has concluded all that's divine revelation from God! smiley

You have been shown verbatim some 70 inconsistencies in the Bible. Instead of trying to refute them (which you can't, because they are true) you keep robotically repeating the same thing!

An imaginary prince who was foretold thousands of years b4 He came and whose words have survived thousands of years exactly as He said. And no, He wasn't a prince. He was a carpenter without money, influence, nor much following, and who suffered the most humiliating death.
An imaginary Person who has redeemed so many lives and whose mere mention of His name sends evil spirits running!

You're quoting verses critics told you but to me those aren't inconsistencies rather the critics don't understand God's word so to them it's inconsistencies.
Please if you don't believe the Bible is perfect there's no need insulting or abusing others.
You've been doing this that's why Dtruthspeaker return your insults and you started calling me but i don't do such it's either we agree or disagree! smiley

Cancer only affects the body. Quite healthy people commit suicide all the time.
But yes, mere mention of His name with faith has cured cancer

Well i'm a businessman in my early fifties, married with two children, one is still studying for his masters while the other is a successful farmer in Brazil.
So in what way are you better than me?

I believe in the Prince of Peace and this has helped me to connect millions of peace loving people throughout the earth who are now my brothers and sisters in the faith.

Slowpoke is not an insult if someone is talking like a slow person - eg equating the Bible with God qualifies you a slow person, or slow poke!
