[s]The problem with you guys is that you failed to grasp the meaning of my profile name:

"MaxInDHouse"
Well it simply means Maximus in the house!

Maximus was a fearless Roman soldier who can't be intimidated by the number of enemies approaching.
So all of you can continue agitating profusely while i keep playing around with your intelligence.
If you as in you Courts can't forward your own questions RESPECTFULLY then keep whatever you know to yourself while i keep mine to myself, or better still continue typing epistles upon epistles on what you think about Jehovah's Witnesses it's a free world! [/s] cheesy

Unnecessary story. Your diversion tactics won't work. Do the needful. I have quoted you again.

Why did your founder say he is more inspired than Jesus and that he should be followed and not Jesus?

So, in Martial arts, is there not spiritism attached to it or some beliefs in Taoism, Buddhism, Shintoism and Hinduism? You know, same shit different cults? What concerns Almighty God with Martial Arts? Was God ever involved in Martial Arts?

We are talking in a religious context. Who are the sort of people described as GRAND MASTERS? Where is it in the Bible that Almighty GOD is described as GRAND MASTER? Has Jesus ever addressed him as GRAND MASTER?
I was saying that it's not limited to freemasonry only
Try to get my point
I come from a Martial arts background so I know what I'm talking about

Are you a JW?
If you've read about RottenNaija's ordeal, something similar happened to me I reach the crossroads, I will say a crisis of conscience.
The JWs are good and law-abiding people but the leadership has continued to enforced man-made rules and promoting of mere speculations as a central doctrine coupled with a sugarcoating of their history and forcing scripture to fit organizational policy.

Two WRONGS can never make one RIGHT.
So since you THINK the JW organization is WRONG with all the achievements which is in line with what we are to expect of Jesus' group in the endtime. Then you supposed to present a group that is performing up to expectation.

Jesus told us that his group will be globally known not for recommendations because he himself was known in his own time but not for recommendations rather he was popularly known as either a madman {10:20} demonic {John 7:20; 8:48} or impostor! Matthew 27:63
Jesus said his true disciples will also be popular but it's the same views people will have for them! Matthew 10:25

So if a group has being through the planet, gathered people in millions, made them zealous preachers and industrious teachers of the Bible, and able to format politics, racism and military services from their brains! Isaiah 2:2-4
Certainly a mighty spirit King is behind them! Matthew 28:20

So i'm not arguing with you that JWs aren't WRONG but Please! Please!! Please!!! Present a better performing group than this group! Act 1:8 smiley
I don't have anything against JW's I'm just shocked that upon all the modern discoveries and the number of scholarly ones among the rank and files the still stick with a teaching that was and borrowed from the Adventists and derived by calculating a pyramid.
And Maximus I know you're trying to defend your religion, I always did the same but when the truth knocks hard on your face it's hard to let it go scott free.
I was embarrassed the day I read THE FINISHED MYSTERY.........................I no fit continue story for another day grin grin cheesy cheesy cheesy

JWs are GOOD and LAW ABIDING people but they were people from different races throughout the world GATHERED under one umbrella by the same LEADERSHIP!

Oh how sweet is the word of Jesus Christ of Nazareth:

By their fruits you will recognize them. Never do people gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles, do they? Likewise, every good tree produces fine fruit, but every rotten tree produces worthless fruit. A good tree cannot bear worthless fruit, nor can a rotten tree produce fine fruit. Matthew 7:16-18

So the EVIL LEADERSHIP successfully gathered millions of GOOD and LAW ABIDING people from different races throughout the world that's filled with EVILDOERS and CRIMINALS!

Nope. It has been established that you are a Coward and you have absolutely no conviction that you can answer those questions. The spirit of boldness your cult keeps yapping about in your books cannot be foumd in you. You will make a blunder! You dodge deep questions. And your IQ cannot handle them. That is what your conduct so far has shown. Nobody gives a shit about politely asking you questions because YOU ARE NOT POLITE. Don't expect Politeness when your track record in this forum shows the opposite. This is a lesson for you. Lesson they don't teach in Kingdom Hall.

Interesting. There are many like you as we speak. In fact, a visit to ExJW forums reveal so many people trapped in this Cult. As you rightly said, there are good people trapped in this Cult. In spite of the fact that this religion thrives on Blind obedience and Academic ignorance, there are people in it who still think critically and can see the Fraud in the Cult for what it is. Now, if the religion is truly TRUE, why do people feel trapped in it?

What research have you done about this Cult that opened your eyes, if I may ask?

2 - 0 against enemies of God's organization! cheesy

So the EVIL LEADERSHIP of JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES organization successfully gathered people in millions throughout the earth and made them GOOD, LAW ABIDING, ZEALOUS preachers and INDUSTRIOUS TEACHERS of the word of their God.

That's really interesting.
Who will help me read Jesus' words aloud nah?

BY THEIR FRUITS YOU WILL KNOW THEM! Matthew 7:16-18

So the leadership of the organization is wrong from what you read in that book but they've successfully achieved those two things shey?

MaxInDHouse is not obeying the instructions of the Governing Body.

David Splane clearly warned JWs against arguing with "apostates" on any online forum or social media platform.

If MaxInDHouse was exposed in real life and the body of elders in his congregation see all of his comments and threads on Nairaland, I am 100% sure that any two of the following would happen -

1. He will be summoned to a judicial meeting and be warned to stop responding to people on Nairaland and be REPROVED

OR

2. He will be summoned to a judicial meeting and if he doesn't stop, but keeps on with his comments on Nairaland, he could get disfellowshiped.

MaxInDHouse cannot even obey a simple instruction from the Governing Body.

But you are depriving others from knowing the truth about your Cult! You are not addressing issues posed to you. You are denying the obvious errors in your doctrines and you are calling people who have found the truth about your Cult names! You have also been lying to people you preach to about what is really happening in your Cult, e. g the unpleasant and controversial doctrines, the strong amount of control the governing body has over your lives, the conditional fake Love amongst JWs, the real behaviour of JWs and NOT the false righteousness they put when they go about to preach, the child sexual abuse cases, the nefarious activities your Cult are involved in, etc. You are trying to hush these exposures but it is a good thing people already have their experiences with you JWs.

You're indirectly judging yourself and all others speaking against this organization because this group are making the organization of people from different races live peacefully together as brothers and sisters throughout the world because they subject themselves to this governing body.

I've always believed the organization to be the truth and absolutely infallible. I spent most of the days at home reading bound volumes of different watchtower's and Awake reading mostly the articles that concentrated on wildlife, landmarks and history. I was more interested in ancient history, I've even covered the book DANIELS PROPHECY cover to cover.
I wanted to understand the deep things of the scriptures so I opted for Revelation- it's Grand Climax.
Everything went well until one day when engaging in the field ministry I met a man probably a member of the church of Christ, the topic was about God's kingdom, there was a tract we gave him and the issue of 1914 came up which led to a long discussion, I dismiss most of the things the man said as just nonsense or misunderstanding of scripture.
As a big fan of history I purchased a book that called the HUMAN JOURNEY which contain the history of humans from the Neolithic era down to the 21st century, I came across the date 587BC for the first time as the destruction of Jerusalem by the Babylonians, well I dismissed it and thought that 607 was still correct. Still not satisfied I went on Google, I saw a lot of things I even stumbled on name Olof Jonsonn, Ray Franz but I just scanned through those articles and backed off.
My Dad always spoke ill of Ray Franz saying he was a certified apostate, I checked him up on Wikipedia but the information did not satisfy my curiosity.
Thankfully I got a job two years after graduating from Secondary school and got a good phone with a steady supply of data. I was always taught that apostates use half-truths or distort facts, I decided to take a look at CRISIS OF CONSCIENCE instead of seeing lies or twisting, I discovered that the majority of qoutes was from the societies publication itself. I even got more insight into their history, then came IN SEARCH OF CHRISTIAN FREEDOM and GENTILE TIMES RECONSIDERED.
Astronomical data, Business tablet's, Uruk kinglist, Ptolemys Cannon and dozens of tablet's date the destruction of Babylon to 587BC and this lists harmonised with each other the accuracy was amazing, meanwhile the watchtower on the other hand will never list this thing's but will be saying that the Ptolemy Cannon is false or wrong. Rejecting 587 but accepting 539 which has less evidence than 587.
A host of other things I can't state here, the congregation I associate with are the stack opposite of the brotherly love the preach and teach about. The look down on people who don't have much, the only roll with the rich brothers and share their problems and concerns with them only, even some Elders I knew manifested this same spirit, I was being sidelined or knocked off the pecking order anytime I try to point out to my dad or mom the attitude being displayed by members of the congregation who profess to be God's chosen people the get on the defensive. Atleast even if the organization should be wrong in some things, I think what should keep the bond of brotherhood together should be concern for everyone irrespective of their financial background, I was stalk in a superficial atmosphere of brotherhood.
I don't know if they skip this particular Bible book James 3:4&5:
"have you not then made (class) distinctions among yourselves................... 5 Listen, my beloved brothers, has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom, which he has promised to those who love him?"

Please accept my warm congratulations!

You have freed your MIND from their endless indoctrination.

I still remember the day I read the Crisis of Conscience and Captives of a Concept.

It was like a large scale fell off my eyes.

I still remember feeling foolish and angry for being deceived all my life.
