MaxInDHouse:The Bible you carry states in 1 Timothy 3:16,17 it is God's word that is inspired. The religious organization set up by men today feeds from the the Bible not the bible feeding from the church. The discussion centred here are what the scripture says not what your church says. It sometimes spill into some of the teachings of your religious organization and other denominations yet the base is what you the Bible says. Learn. No dey carry the name of your religious organization like calf to be worshipped. |

cornelboy:No! The bodies ended up in grave while their spirits went to heaven Pls is the grave same as paradise?No! After Jesus's resurrection he lived here on earth for another forty days.Which Bible did you read it from that JESUS LIVED on earth for another FORTY DAYS? Today wey Jesus promised the thief still never end? Or is earth now heaven?It ended that same day. You see your interpretation and reasoning is very incoherent.Your interpretation and conclusion, not mine Even if Jesus went to heaven that same day he died, there's no way the thief could be with him.You know more than Jesus who promised thief that they will be together the same day. Reasons:Are you with him on the cross? 2. The holy spirit came more than 43 days after Jesus's death.This is because you lack scriptural understanding. The Holy Spirit only came to prepare the desciples for the great work ahead that day, Holy Spirit was around during the life of Jesus. Or is it not the same Holy Spirit the Father anointed Jesus with? ![]() In conclusion Jesus was talking about the future earth paradiseNothing like "EARTH PARADISE" in the Bible that's another word The Watchtower is using to confused you. So your conclusion has no hold on the scripture. ![]() |

You go still learn.Yet I didn't read anything meaningful in your post since What do you understand by inherit the earth?Building different Kingdom halls and resell it for more profit ![]() Jesus didn't say they will see him o. He said they will see God.And the dull brain is priding in his ignorance. That point Is for your post where you said "Jehovah has given His command..." Olodo oshhi What's was the conclusion I gave you when you were saying your own?You tell me You remember when I said "what is your point gangan?"And I told you, or you didn't see it? I said you were only proving that the Bible is a contradiction.But it's evident that you're the one who is doing that. I will give you a brief conclusion on that chapter later.Give your brothers in the hall they need it more than me. |

e author=MaxInDHouse post=111734318] Perhaps you never studied the scriptures with meditation Sir! A Governing Body is a group of older men of the faith in Christ who are appointed as overseers of Jesus' flock. Before Jesus left he appointed Peter the apostle as the spokesperson of that little group whom he called "Apostles" that's why Jesus said: "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." Matthew 16:19 Jesus also commanded this same Peter saying: When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?" "Yes, Lord," he said, "you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Feed my lambs." John 21:15 That's why you'll notice Peter always speaking up for the group {Act 1:13} anytime the need arises or whenever they're questioned! Act 2:14; 3:4,12; 4:19; 5:29 But does that mean Peter has become infallible since Jesus chose him as spokesman for the Apostles? The answer is NO! Because the same Peter failed woefully to acknowledge gentiles who has been baptized with God's Holy Spirit in the presence of Jewish Christians {Galatians 2:11-14} despite the fact that God has forewarned him not to discriminate against believers due to racism! Act 10:15 So there was a GOVERNING BODY in the first century and Apostle Paul whom Jesus used to correct peter acknowledged this BODY that's why he always report back to them: As they traveled on through the cities, they would deliver to them for observance the decrees that had been decided on by the apostles and the elders who were in Jerusalem. Act 16:4 compare to 15:2 Apostle Paul emphasized on the need for all the Christian congregations to OBEY the counsel of the GOVERNING BODY! Hebrews 13:7, 17 So if you don't know that there was a GB after Jesus' ascension to heaven that's not my fault Sir! ![]() I did not spend time to read your trash, as for the apostles there was no succession, Apostle John was the last apostle who died around A.D100. Christ is the head of the congregation and he directs the church through his holy spirit......the apostles were not dictators of faith or busy formulating some kind of dogma for the members of the congregation rather as Paul said "they were fellow workers" not "masters of their faith"[/quote] |

MaxInDHouse:All the verses you quoted up there is talking about the physical Kingdom that is to come when Christ sets up His Kingdom here on earth but what your organisation is ignorant of is what Jesus said below: "Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you." (Luke 17:21). Jesus who is the physical presence of the Kingdom of God was telling the Pharisees that the Kingdom of God is among them, so close to them only if they could discern it. He had brought the Kingdom of God into to the hearts of those who would receive Him but blind Pharisees just like the blind bats of JW's organisation could not, would not and cannot see it. ![]() |

Acts 15:2-29, 1 Corinthians 5:1-13 & Hebrews 13:7,17, did the Governing Body dictate & formulate what those servants of Jehovah believe & practice? Immediately After John's demise, did all their leadership die & every believer were sheep without shepherds? Yet,Paul is teaching about leadership & obedience? .. achorladey:See who is talking about "score cheap points" when he done expose his own FALSEHOOD ! Achorladey rewind your memory to the incessant GIBBERISH you spearhead on this public forum (with Rottennaija & your Atheist crews) attacking the existence of the Governing Body in Acts chapter 15. achorladey: "Recant" what?

OLAADEGBU:Well Jesus is the future King of God's Kingdom and his presence means a lot to those living in the first century because his teachings will set the pace so that all those following his footsteps closely will inherit God's Kingdom. That's what he meant there but as for that Kingdom it is until Jesus began ruling the earth that we all can see it for real, that's why he asked us to continue praying for God's Kingdom to come! Matthew 6:10 In God's Kingdom people will no longer think of choosing rulers for themselves but we will all rely on the standard set by Jesus so there won't be any reason for us to lift up weapons against one another in a bid settle differences {Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3} today Jehovah's Witnesses have used what Jesus taught them to settle all their racial disparities so that none of them is carrying weapons against anyone in the name of patriotism {Psalms 46:9} but do you know that your fellow deeperlife member in another country will carry weapons against you if the ruler of his country is having issues with Buhari? That has been settled amongst Jehovah's Witnesses due to the teachings of our Master, Lord and King Christ Jesus! 2Corinthians 4:4 ![]() |

Emusan:You half baked knowledge of the scriptures won't do you no good. It's time you asked for more wisdom or donate your brain to the 8 men you esteem as Gods. John 3:3,5 NLT [3]Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, unless you are born again, you cannot see the Kingdom of God.” [5]Jesus replied, “I assure you, no one can enter the Kingdom of God without being born of water and the Spirit. What Jesus meant here is crystal clear. Only those that are born of the spirit can enter the kingdom. If someone is naturally a gentle or meek person and doesn't believe in Jesus and Jehovah, there's no way he could have eternal Life on earth talkless of seeing the kingdom. We even see from the scriptures that no one can be pure in heart or righteous without being baptized by the spirit. We are sinful by nature. Meekness, enduring during persecution, righteousness etc are fruits of the spirit. Galatians 5:22-23 KJV [22]But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, [23]Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. Matthew 19:27-28 [27]Then Peter said to him, “We’ve given up everything to follow you. What will we get?” [28]Jesus replied, “I assure you that when the world is made new and the Son of Man sits upon his glorious throne, you who have been my followers will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. We see from this above verses that the rewards for the apostles is to judge the new world (paradise) together with Christ. Dem no go dè heaven forever. The kingdom (Jesus, the apostles, and the rest of the 144000) will fully come to earth to judge it. They will defeat any opposing human/Satan government and authority and restore peace to earth. Daniel 2:44. After Jesus has fulfilled his mission, he will hand over the kingdom to GOD the Father who will rule over everything including Jesus himself. I Corinthians 15:24-28. Revelation 21:1-3 [1]Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the old heaven and the old earth had disappeared. And the sea was also gone. [2]And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven like a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. [3]I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, “Look, God’s home is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them. If you can't figure these things out yourself, I would advice you to donate your brain to the 8 men god. |

No! The bodies ended up in grave while their spirits went to heavenWhere did you see that in the Bible? It's your assumption right? Acts of the Apostles 2:24,27 [24]But God released him from the horrors of death and raised him back to life, for death could not keep him in its grip. [27]For you will not leave my soul among the dead or allow your Holy One to rot in the grave. It's never too late to donate your brain. Which Bible did you read it from that JESUS LIVED on earth for another FORTY DAYS?Well it's in every version of the Bible. This shows that you don't have broad knowledge of the scriptures. You could have even check it out on the internet or the Bible before asking me baby question. Are you very lazy? It ended that same day.The promise could only be fulfilled at the 43rd day when Jesus ascended into heaven. You know more than Jesus who promised thief that they will be together the same day.The scripture is all clear to me. The translators that put the comma before today made a mistake. And the meaning it gives is incoherent. It should be like this: "..I assure you today, you'll be with me in paradise." Are you with him on the cross?Were you? This is because you lack scriptural understanding.Your posts are actually evidence that you lack scriptural and unscriptural understanding. Nothing like "EARTH PARADISE" in the Bible that's another word The Watchtower is using to confused you. So your conclusion has no hold on the scripture.New earth, new world dé na [quote author=Emusan post=111786667][/quote] |

MaxInDHouse:"But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you." (Luke 11:20). Jesus is only coming to reign with those who have already received Him spiritually into their lives on His first coming. If He is not currently reigning in your heart you will not reign with Him in His Second Coming. |
