If you did attend other churches yet how did you come to the conclusion that he is best?

Read you question again.

Now here is my answer.

I attended other churches, that's why I was about to juxtaposed them with Jehovah's witness. Others are only interested in your money,unlike Jehovah's witness that cares only about your salvation

Still in the realm of delusions. The Jehovah’s witnesses need money of it members they also don't care about their salvation grin grin grin

They keep twisting and manipulating their beliefs to hold members in tight grip. It has nothing to do with salvation. Being a member of a religious denomination is not a criteria for salvation

Why would a religion frown at beards - something natural?

But the pictures they have depicting Jesus is showing him with beards. Black people get problem and religion is compounding it!

You need to see how many times they have argued whether Jesus get beard or not paapaa grin grin grin

When you're seen as rebellious, odd and worldly just because you grow beards and attend meetings... What's worse than demonising?
There are cases where a brother can be disfellowshiped because of beard wearing, if the brother doesn't act on the elders strong counsel to shave off and reacts negatively, violently or repulsively against the elders without remorse. Any rebellion against the GB or congregational matter is a potential disfellowshiping case.. How the accused reacts to counseling matters.

Thank you!

How dare you compare the issue of circumcision with wearing beards? This is pure gaslighting and other form of manipulation.
The issue of circumcision was already a law and a required by God which he made with Abraham which was clearly stated in the old testament.

God commanded Israelites to wear beards so it's also a law in the Bible! smiley

The only group that has never participated in wars or conflicts
The only group so loyal to the christ and they are neutral

And you're really proud to say this in public??
Jews in the bible enjoyed peace after fighting countless wars, even committed infanticide and genocide. The goodnews witnesses are preaching in many countries is possible because there's peace. The businesses, activities, food, education etc enjoyed by every witness globally in their respective countries is possible because of relative peace.. Peace was fought for by heroes and men like everyone else... If witnesses do not participate in warfare in general they don't deserve the right to enjoy system achieved through wars and spiling of blood




You dey mind that one peddling madness and insanities from his brains. Their religious organization that believed in self defense says not going to war or getting involved in politics shows they are true Christians grin grin grin grin

it was law for the them to wear beards. Thats an evidence that God approves of Christains today to wear beards. But JW G.B have told it members not to wear beards as appointed preachers.

It's cultural accepted for Men to wear beards in Nigeria, but JW see it as worldly fashion.Their men in Nigeria can't hold appointed position with it. Their is even a specific style of dress for the men with previlages, who are not allowed to wear fitted outfit, be it trouser or shirt. It most be bongo size trousers and bongo outfits😂😂🤦

Yeah I went through what you said online and I affirm it to be true. However, putting a kingdom hall that is of no use for sale isn't a big deal as all churches do same. So if the kingdom halls are being put for sale and the money recovered from it is used to build another kingdom where the need is required, do you still think that to be pitiful?

My best friend is a JW. We had a discussion which ended as an argument recently. He is an Elder at your hall and he became an elder in his early twenties.

You guys think too much of yourselves. You are the only accepted people of God and only among you are the 144,000 found. grin

You are the 21st century Pharisees.
You label other christians with all sorts of bad names and group all churches as one. Even the ones everyone knows are evil and ritualists.

Oga, keep shut.
The decision of the governing body as exposed JW. You guys are like robots in the hands of Watchtower.
They hold the remote and turn you to any direction they want and you guys don't have the brain of your own. You must not question their decisions.

This may not be happening in Nigeria but it is happening in so many countries outside Nigeria.

Google Kingdom halls for sale. There are so many Kingdom halls for sale listed in Real Estate websites in the US, UK, Australia, Canada, Peru, e. t.c. There is a section in jworg where they list congregations that they remove or merge with others. All of this is happening because Many JWs are leaving the Cult at a fast pace. There is a Facebook group dedicated to Kingdom halls sold and for sale. It is called Kingdom halls for sale around the world. Many of them are sold to different religions, churches and even turned to bars and other businesses. Just search on Facebook.

Me too
Then, not everyone seem to agree with it and some may be judgmental
For many years, including in Nigeria, Christian ministers are known to be without beards
The use of beards is now becoming generally acceptable, not offensive as in then
Hence the adjustment
With the Governing Body announcement, there will be less anxiety or uneasiness when a fellow jw wears a beard

Notatribalist:

What exactly do you intend to achieve with this post? I was born in that organization,but for some reasons I left. But truth is,they practice the best form of Christianity. Jehovah witness is the only organization/church I've seen that preaches from the Bible. They don't take offering like other churches. Their teachers are centered on how to worship God. No prosperity preaching. As much as I would like to admit that they are not perfect,but they are far ahead of others. Take it on leave it

I also left some years back for some personal reasons.

I 100% agreed. And they are the only organisation that has low rate of divorce, because their husbands, wives and children know their roles in the family settings.

It is only in JW organisation you will see a man and a woman still be together for the past 20-30 years with low rate of broken homes. You can't find this outside the world.

Outside the world, there have been so many rate of broken homes and divorces. You hardly see this in JW. And their wives are very homely.

The only next organisation that come near to JW is probably deeper life church.

They don't tolerate rubbish and immorality the world condoned today.

I might probably go back, I don't know.

At the bolded, I am glad this thread hit front page so that the Public can know exactly how Watchtower Bible and Tract Society is really run since they are so secretive. This Fornicator Aemmyjah is scared that his beloved Cult has been exposed. The biggest fear of Jehovah's witnesses is when torchlight is shone on them to reveal their Cultic beliefs. When someone is bold enough to seek information outside of their approved website, the person is called An Apostate. I am just happy that so many testimonies full this thread to prove all what we have been saying in this forum all along.

Loool! Jesus did not see Satan and say you Satan or apostates and start running away.

Your Jehovah didn't see Satan in Job accounts and told the angels see that apostates run away from him.

Your Jehovah didn't tell Job to run away from the impending calamity coming from Satan.


The Governing body of Jehovah’s Witnesses aka GODS housed in USA have plenty to hide the reason they keep running away from those they call apostates and ask their manipulated members to do likewise grin grin grin grin

Psycho freaks thank God I left that mind altering organization thats full of hypocrites and pretenders

Better think of going back bro. It's a hard decision. Most people that left, did that for some selfish personal reasons. You can't find what they teach anywhere.

I left too but I have been thinking of going back. They practice one of the most purest form of Christianity. They don't condone immorality. They have the lowest rate of divorce and broken homes.

And they have the most homely wives you can't find anywhere. Their wives respect their husbands and vice versa. You can't find this anywhere in the world.

When I look around and see how homes are being broken and so many divorce going on in the world around us, I feel a sense of nostalgia.

I am still critically thinking whether to go back or not.

Put it into your bucket list. JW is a good organisation. Stop lambasting them cuz you left. I also left but I will never speak bad of them. Cuz I have seen what's in the world. I have tasted and seen. Let's not speak bad of them. Let's be truthful to ourselves; what's obtainable in JW organisation, you can't find it anywhere in the world today.
