Maybe you should edify me on what Jesus preached. What did he preach?

alBHAGDADI:
Mathew 28:19
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:


Did you read the above verse? That was Jesus Christ speaking to his disciples and giving them a great commission. They are to go into all parts of the world and preach the gospel to every human on earth.

Today, the group called Jehovah's Witnesses often pride themselves saying they are the only ones doing that assignment given by Jesus Christ. Whenever they make such statement, they hardly get any objection cos most people have at one time had them knock on their door to preach to them. I also fell for that talk from them which made me see them as the only ones fulfilling Christ's commission. It made me feel bad about folds in Christianity cos I can't recall the last time someone approached me to preach.

Over the years, I've come to realize how much of a falsehood the statement is and how it positions them to reap from where they did not sow.
Where were the JW when Christians were facing challenges spreading the gospel in difficult parts of the world? Do you know the trouble faced by the missionaries who brought Christianity to Africa and even South America? They battled malaria, diseases, voodoo, ritualists, hostile communities, pagan beliefs and culture, wickedness, cannibalism etc. Yet, God helped them succeeded. That's why we have Christianity in Africa and other parts of the world. Did the JW face any of those or were part of those missionaries? NO.

When the missionaries had succeeded in establishing Christianity in major places, the JW now showed up when conditions had become favorable. What they are doing now is going from door to door, trying to convert Christians and turn them to JW. It now becomes nauseating that they are boasting of being the only organization that preaches from door to door. Where was the JW organization when conditions were harsh?

If they really want sensible people to accept their claims, then they should go establish in a ground that is hostile. They should try and establish Kingdom Halls in hostile Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Pakistan etc. They should go preach from door to door and see if they will last a day. Yet, we have Christian bodies in those countries going through the storm of persecution in those countries.

The Europe where JW are at peace today, do they know what the Catholic Church faced before Christianity could be established there?

So, before a JW boasts to you of how is Organization are the only ones preaching from door to door, let him know that they were never around when conditions were harsh and hostile.

Bro, are we supposed to feel sorry for you that you have no pride in your own beliefs or your God? No one stops you from priding in your religion. As for the JW, we pride in our God, Jehovah and we bear his name.
God so kind you did not claim to have sponsored the publishing of the publications. Well, if you have the energy, why not get into the publishing of expository materials?
Well, why not do it and prove your point instead of supposing? Bro, how many persons have you helped to convert to Christianity?

Emmanystone:

I went for Evangelism 2 yrs ago and met a man who when i began talking to him, he introduced himself as a Babalawo. They way he said it, he meant to scare me, but instead of being scared, i sat down and took him on so genlty that he didn't know when i led him to Christ.

He said the sinners prayers, before he knew it. He kept asking me, who are you? He asked me that 5times. Who are you that you don't have fear? I told him i represent Jesus, and in Jesus there's no fear. He told me why he kept asking me who I was.

He said, many people had gone to him, but immediately they hear, 'I be Babalawo o, they turn back and leave, but he told me that, instead of leaving, i sat down.

He said countless Jehovah's Witnesses had gone to him, but they turn back and leave as they hear who he was.

The next day, i took a pastor to his shrine, where he lived, before us, he brought out his neck, chain, his hand band and rings and destroyed them before us. He knelt down and was seriously prayed for. Today he is a Christian. I spoke with him today. He will be in church tomorrow.

What are the JW afraid of that they don't confront satan? They wait for territories to be conquered before they come with their kingdom message. I won't be surprised that they will now go to the former Babalawo to preach the kingdom.

Be careful those of you who entertain these people thinking they are serving God. They hate Christians fiercely.

Just imagine the part Festus Keyamo played in Otobo's saga, all because he is a witness and Apostle Suleman is Christian.

Stay away from their energy.

rottennaija:


That is because JWs discredit efforts of others as well. In fact, they do it more vehemently. Or are you not aware? The op wanted to set the record straight

DavidEsq:

Why don't u just name the oda churches na.

tonyimadu:

in arguments like this no one convinces the other. These kind of debates are so unnecessary. The Internet is now the battleground. I have followed this trend only to find out that we all stick to our views. no one is changing the other. we are contending. It is the devil that brings contention among brethren

alBHAGDADI:
That's the same flimsy excuse my JW colleague at work gave when I brought the subject up to him.

It is now clear to me how much of a cult they are.

@christianfreedo @rottennaija @hairyrapunzel

Emmanystone:

Jehovah's Witnesses don't evangelize unbelievers, they turn ignirant Christians against God.

I asked one once why they don't go to hostile nations for thwir missionary work, he told me that they were not sent to nations that rejects them, but they knock on doors of believers in places that had been won for Christ.

Satan is a lair.

Chimourinho:
JW activities was banned in Russia. That organization is a secret cult

nairalanduseles:


all religions are cult

rottennaija:


High control groups like JWs all pass for a cult

I still believe that the ground is green for you. Since you believe that we are not there, you can as well go there and make a name for yourself if you love God so much.

Or, don't you love God?

Bro, this guy is a confirmed apostate, dont bother debating the truth with them. If anyone is honest and sincerely want to learn abt the bible the bible is there for all.

rottennaija:


You know one thing funny about you? I have gone through most things for your response in jw related issues. It seems you were planted here in nairaland to distract attention from issues by using ad hominem attack. You hardly deal with any issue raised.

Bros, answer the question I posted before beginning your attack on people.

rottennaija:


That comes with their beliefs. Since they believe you are an unbeliever, they come to convert you to their organization before you die.

What's the title of this mount Zion film?

removetheturban:
It is always mature to be head-on with your truth. It is not NOW CLEAR, you have always held a partisan view of the JW. Sounding surprised like you just discovered America is puerile. We do not owe you anything at all. If you do not like us, we didn't set out to beg for it in the first place. You have your own religion, preach it! If you think that the JW are not doing enough, the land is still green for you. You can go ahead and enjoy the horizon.
We give the glory of our success to Jehovah God. No one takes the glory of all our works because Jesus said that he will prove to be with us and the angels are also ministers with us. If we do not tell our success granted to us by Jehovah's grace, who will do that for us? If you know how much you have achieved, tell the world.

We are over 8.4 million 'active' JW in 240 lands. That is the largest active army in the world. We set out in favorable and unfavorable seasons and we do not let up amidst the persecutions, bans, trials, attacks, killings etc. We have a long history of being victimized and if you keep up to date, there are more topics for you to publish against the JW. Someone just narrated how he prayed for a Voodoo priest and you cheered without confirming the story just because he is not a JW. Everything gets a pass as long as it is not the JW. You also copied your fellow persecutors.

Jesus gave us an assignment and that assignment, we must do regardless of what you or your cohorts do. We will declare Jehovah's mighty name, love and his kingdom. That is what Jesus came to the earth to do and he asked to advertise the kingdom because it will come just as in the days of Noah. Many were mocking Noah, many scornfully rejected the message and sanctimoniously insulted Noah and even incited their cohorts to mock Noah, not until the flood did they realize that the time was up.

We love you and encourage you to read your Bible. If you do not want to hear from the JW, we do not force you to. As long as you reject it, we will keep moving. We are not looking for population, but our interest is to share the word of God from the Bible with as many as we can before the time runs out.

So, free up your colleague because he does not owe you any explanation and the JW do not feel obliged to succumb to your reactions towards us. Jesus said, 'if they persecute me, they will persecute you also". We welcome the insults and blasphemy because they open the doors for conversations and for us to explain the Bible teachings to the people that we meet in our ministry. We have been doing this for over 100 years and we have been met with literally all kinds of it all.

Welcome to the club!
