Why Are You In Your Religion? by MightySparrow(op): 9:13pm On Mar 21, 2025
As it is, majority of us found ourselves in the the religion of our fathers and societies we found ourselves and continue to align ourselves with them without asking any questions.

Why are you in your religion?

I got into my present religion because I wanted "to know" who I am. Gnosis. I am not into it because of location, parenthood or connection. I looked and found.

I have tried different religions and I am glad I did because at least I have an idea of what most folks are talking about. Plus I have my peace.

You got it!
If there is no sense in the claim about a supreme being then it's better to trash such nonsense and become an atheist but thanks to the true God who sent His worshipers to me now i can speak convincingly about God to the point that even atheists are marveled.
Imagine these comments:

Nnamdipapa:
Max, do not descend to the levels of these people, and never let them get to you. I have noticed your interactions on NL for years and I see emotional maturity and the way you carry yourself, I have yet to see in the average Pentecostal Christian.
Tayorshd87:
Awesome input 💯
That's true logically
Sojourner2000:
For real... It's hard answering this when I know for sure that the God we are referring to is just an illusion that most humans chose to accept as a reality.
Anyways I wanted to commend you for the hard facts you have been dropping and how you have been tackling responses. I need people like this in real life. Everyone around me is just dumbed down
These are atheists testifying to the fact that this person is making sense with the same thing they thought is a trash.

What does Gnosis have to tell us about how the universe and life on earth began?

Congratulations. You would have been speaking about an Allah in the ka'aba asking Muslims to kill and annihilate anything Jews and Christians in jihads but now sharing the love of God.

Many atheists on this forum are worried after discussing with me for instance the atheist LordReed once said he defended JWs! huh
Can you imagine that? undecided
Well that is after pondering over how i've been putting meaning to what those churches taught them in times past that got all of them pissed off now they having a rethink over what the Bible says.
I can tell you the first thing that got the guy thinking twice.
Many people are saying JWs are false prophets for anticipating God's Kingdom since the year 1914 but when i said it's not a crime because John the baptist and Jesus of Nazareth both said God's Kingdom is at hand some 2,000 years ago yet God's Kingdom is not here so whoever calls JWs false prophets for their anticipation should also call both John the baptist and Jesus of Nazareth false prophets too because both of them said God's Kingdom is at hand yet it's now 2000 years since they both walked this planet.

I expected any interested person to ask questions regarding this but since no one feels like asking i kept the knowledge! smiley

Re: Why Are You In Your Religion? by sonmvayina(m): 6:56pm On Mar 22, 2025
I was raised Roman Catholic. Baptised, confirmed and matrimony.
But when I started reading the Bible for myself, I discovered that many things they were saying and teaching were not there or most times it is just mistranslation. That peaked my curiosity. I started studying about the origin of Christianity as a religion. What I found some I have shared on some of my post here. Others is just too gory.
Now I am a human being just living life with no garbage of hell, heaven or purgatory etc. I have detoxified myself of all those absurdities. I learn the Torah and try to keep it. That is the only literature I can lay my hands on that has the divine laws. I am not a judaist.
Life has never been so good.
Tomorrow when my wife and kids go to church, I will sit home and listen to Rabbi Tovia . He has sent me some good messages from the Torah.

Life is for living. It is not an audition for the after life.

This is a lie😂😂😂.
If John had said Heaven will come 1056, by now we would have termed him a liar!!!
When Jesus was asked, he told his disciples clearly that his Father will declare it!!!

He didn't declare it for his Father nor gave awful speculations!!!😂😂😂

He only told his disciples about the signs!!!

Your organization 🤨 decided in their own infinite wisdom that Christ was coming in the 1800's then progressively changed it to 1914👀.

Do you see the difference?🤨
Don't use that as an excuse, Christ is not a false prophet as compared to your "8 men in Chicago" 👀

Are you really sure they are not false prophets?
If you do why has their prophecies:
"Repent, for God's Kingdom is at hand "
delayed for almost 2,000 years? smiley

"Repent, for God's Kingdom is at hand"
Matthew 3:2; 4:17

Some versions says
"God's Kingdom is near"

It's two thousand years after and God's Kingdom has not come.

Please how long is this "at hand" or "near"? smiley

lost false jw mad max

john was referring to Jesus when he said: repent for the Kingdom of heaven is at hand
and Jesus was referring to Himself when He said: the kingdom of heaven is at hand/is come to you

Luk 17:20  Now having been questioned by the Pharisees as to when the kingdom of God was coming, He answered them and said, "The kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed;
Luk 17:21  nor will they say, 'Look, here it is!' or, 'There it is!' For behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst."

in your midst
(greek) entos; from within, among: — inside, midst.

the kingdom of God is in your midst/the kingdom of God is within you

the kingdom of God/Jesus, was in the midst of His apostles and disciples
the kingdom of God/Jesus, today is within believers


the Kingdom/Jesus, is right now in the hearts of believers


no mad max, john and Jesus are not false prophets like your mob are, and neither is Jesus a deceiver as you say He is, oh false preacher
Pro 14:5  A trustworthy witness will not lie, But a false witness utters lies.

That is not what I said to you so don't start your lies. I defended JWs when misinformation was being written about them. Has nothing to do with your faith or your religion.
