Quote those scriptures here in words let me see what you are saying.
‭Then those who feared the Lord talked with each other, and the Lord listened and heard. A scroll of remembrance was written in his presence concerning those who feared the Lord and honored his name. Malachi 3:16

Jesus taught his disciples to go out and preach to INDIVIDUALS {Matthew 10:11-13} so as to fulfill this prophecy that's why each person who refuses to talk to them is having serious issues with God because that's the only way your name could be written by the angels recording the names of those doing this according to Malachi 3:16 whoever is not found written in that book will be destroyed! Revelations 20:15

‬

He will not quarrel or cry out; no one will hear his voice in the streets. ‭Matthew 12:19 NIV

Unlike other Israelite prophets before Jesus who used to shout in the streets or wilderness Jesus will establish one on one discussion that his disciples will take to all the nations of the earth! Matthew 28:19-20

So whoever is preaching without having a specific audience who should ask him question regarding what he or she is saying has nothing to do with the work Jesus assigned his disciples! undecided

Mental slavery has no wealth or educational barrier.

After all there were billionaires and Ph.D holders in the audience cheering and clapping when Adeboye said that he drank tea with God.

By the way, standing on the street shouting like a mad man through a speaker is not the Hallmark of a true Christian. It is an eye service at best.

Everything is not about money, money, money.

I don't get your point

Jesus preached by the Sea of Galilee on multiple occasions, including:
Preaching to a crowd: Jesus preached to a large crowd on the shore of Lake Galilee, with people pushing to get close to him.
Jesus taught a crowd on a hillside above the lakeside, which became known as the "Sermon on the Mount".
Jesus taught from a boat on the Sea of Galilee in front of a large crowd.

I see people preach on the street and people gather to ask them questions all the time so what exactly are you talking about?

Jesus was TEACHING people who wants to learn from him not PREACHING to unwilling passersby that's why the scriptures say they gather to listen to him.

When Jesus walked the earth it was the temple in Jerusalem that such teachings should hold but the religious leaders of the day won't allow Jesus teach in the temple that's why those who knew him and his teachings used to gather to hear him not that he was making noise indiscriminately in their streets!

NO! Jehovah's Witnesses preach from house to house and door to door just as Jesus taught his disciples. This will make it easy for people to question anyone who has questionable characters in the society as you walk towards the door of an householder.
Imagine if everyone claiming Christian have to knock on his neighbor's door to preach do you think there can ever be a politician who does bad things yet claiming Christian? smiley
You are a pure JW.org member. Only God, the creator of me and you will judge for judgement belongs to him alone. I don't like discussing religion and politics as they bring very jested argument, shalom ✌️

How do you know they are unwilling passersbys? If Jesus should return in this generation, where exactly do you think he would stand to preach the gospel?

That's why Jesus was killed so don't worry you're not forced to participate it's only for those who are hungry and thirsty for spiritual matters. Matthew 5:6

People who are willing show it by abandoning whatever they are doing or wherever they are going to stay and learn from Jesus.
Jesus will never ever come to preach again his true disciples have gone round the earth to do exactly the work he was doing back then so if you have seen them you have seen Jesus! Act 1:8
His next coming will means destruction for those who refused to welcome his friends!

Good, so those preaching the gospel all over are disciples of Jesus and they are doing exactly what Jesus would do if he was here in this generation

I guess you hurriedly jumped into conclusion, you smartly shortened my statement and picked that part you feels that suit you. Be hungry and so your thing the way your like. Like I said earlier religion and politics bring heated argument and that's where you are tilting towards. Please enough of it. End of story.

I quoted what you aren't getting clear false religion was initiated through politics {Genesis 3:1-5} that's why it always leads to killing of innocent souls {Genesis 4:8} however Jesus preached true religion {John 14:6} and since false religion was created by a killer practicers of false religion takes the place of their initiator to kill members of true religion {John 8:44} in order to silence them through intimidation {Matthew 10:24-28} that's what you need to know it's not all religion that has to do with politics rather politics is from falsehood!

The GOOD NEWS is about God's Kingdom {Matthew 3:2; 4:17; 10:7} and about 8.5 million today are actively involved in the preaching and teaching of this GOOD NEWS globally.

A believer is one who engages himself or herself actively in the assignment Jesus gave his disciples {Matthew 10:11-13} BELIEVING that God has a reward {Hebrew 11:6} for all those faithfully and loyally obeying His only begotten son! John 3:16

John 3: 16 is the definition of a believer , don't add anything to it

So I ask how many believers do we have in the world?

Guy who do you call a believer?

Is it just anyone who keeps shouting "Lord! Lord!!" for Jesus? Matthew 7:21
Well you're knowing the truth today because it is by doing God's will that your name could be written in the book of life {Matthew 7:23} and the will of God has been explained by an ancient Israelite prophet who said:


Then those who feared the Lord talked with each other, and the Lord listened and heard. A scroll of remembrance was written in his presence concerning those who feared the Lord and honored his name. ‭Malachi 3:16 NIV‬

Do you notice that those engaging in what this prophet said will have their names written for for God to REMEMBER them for good? Revelations 20:15

Well that's what Jesus came to establish telling his disciples to go doing globally {Matthew 28:18-20} and it's the reason why God Himself said we should listen to what Jesus ordered us to do! Matthew 17:5

So it's not just people going to worship centers claiming they are believers rather each of them must actively get involved in doing what Jesus assigned his disciples, you must know exactly what Jesus commanded not what people say is good for Jesus! Matthew 15:7-9

God almighty who created the heavens and the knows the true or false religion as you claimed . You are the one saying the false religion killed innocent man, Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ knew before hand that he will be killed to save mankind. His father Jehovah is knew. So it has been known by Jehovah and Jesus Christ for the fulfilment of the words written down. No one supports the killing of another fellow man. God allowed it to happened so thats it
