First of all there is nothing like a place where the dead are tormented, it's either you live forever or forfeit the chances. Jehovah is not interested tormenting Creatures made in HIS image, HIS plan is for everyone of us to live in peace and security. But what about those who won't agree just to HIS terms? They will continue to constitute nuisance and make life miserable for the obedient ones so Jehovah will return them to dust never to be seen again forever!

Then I must have misunderstood somehow. To begin with, my assumption was that Christians preached the Bible and about God, as I thought Jesus too did. Now you make me understand I assumed in error.

I also did not know that Jesus' "central message" was about his death and resurrection. You leave me wondering what all those parables, and "do my will", "love the Lord your God" and "love your neighbour" was all about! My bad, with apologies.

I can't help ask, what the "infallible historical proofs that he died and rose again" are, despite it not being a topic central to the discussion at hand? Except that it seems that "infallible historical proofs" are the basis of all you said in this post. I wonder if the evidence for God is as historically infallible too. And was Jesus teaching about his death and resurrection before his death?

It will be very difficult to get you to really understand my point because I perceive you are not born again.

I never said every topic in the Bible is about the death burial and resurretion of Christ. What I did say is that the gospel of salvation is centered on Christ.

When the early church went from city to cities, their message of salvation was centered on Christ. I will quote a few verses of the scriptures to buttress my point.

Act 3:20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you.

Act 8:5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.

Act 9:20 And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

Rom 15:19 Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.

1Co 15:12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?

2Co 1:19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea.

Phi 1:18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

Besides, you can't separate the Father from the Son. Jesus is the express image of God. He is the one who sent Jesus to die for us. And he wants us to believe in Jesus. The only message to the unsaved soul is Jesus.

Simple as A B C. Please what is the meaning of "God's Kingdom" that Jesus preached and taught people about? Matthew 10:3-10 24:14

God's kingdom is a system of government where God reigns Supreme and his will is established. God's kingdom is already established in the life of those who are born again but the literal manifestation on earth will begin during the Millennium Reign of Christ on earth.

Jesus message was to save his people, the reason he come was to save his people Israelites not Christians. the Israelites were on bondage, so Christ so christ was sent and mission was to forgive them and bring them back. Let me she you scriptures.

“But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭15:24‬ ‭KJV‬‬
“These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭10:5-6‬ ‭KJV‬‬
Now you know why Christ came he said it himself, also I will show you he did not die for everyone only his people, white people keep thinking he died for them, {gentiles}
“The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree. Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.”
‭‭Acts‬ ‭5:30-31‬ ‭KJV‬‬
Not the whole world this is why Christ came, the Bible is very clear.

". Jesus was seen by humans. But since creation, no man has seen God" Hhmmm !!

The Trinity falsehood peddler done change tune suddenly.
Have U actually thought about the implications of your statement ?

For that thread (" my take on Trinity ..." by tomakint ), him & his crew they rant up & down say Jesus na God.
U come this thread dey make contradictory statement.
Abi, Jesus no be your Almighty God again?

What kind of humans are you JW?

Didn't you see a verse that I quoted which shows Jesus saying that no man has seen God, that He the son has made him known because he is the image of the invisible God?

John 1:18
No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared
him .

Jesus is God the Son and if you've seen him you've seen the God the Father. Phillip his disciple was still of the opinion that the Father was all they needed, so he asked Jesus to show them the Father. Jesus showed Philip that he is sufficient for him and that he shouldn't all that bother himself about seeing the Father because he is here.


John 14:18-19
Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?


Jesus is all we need, he is sufficient for us. We can't even go to the father except through him. But JW have dumped him aside, placed him in the status of an angel and a created being, and are now claiming to be receiving directly from the father whom they say they are his witnesses because they have seen him. grin

If Jesus is not part of the Trinity, how come he claimed to be his father?

No man has seen God, except Jesus Christ whom they saw, who made God known. And as from that time, humans can say they have seen God. And which God did they see? They saw Jesus Christ the express image of the living God. Hence they can say they saw God. Now, if they go about witnessing that they saw God, and they are asked for the name of the God, they will say Jesus because he was the one they saw.

I noticed that when JW is losing on a thread, they try to bring in another thread's topic to detail the argument. Barristter07 tried it, it failed him. So, stay off that idea and stick to topic.

Don't mind those heretic JW. They are going about preaching the kingdom of God instead of preaching about salvation through Christ Jesus, which is the only way one can partake in such. Because they claim to be witnessing for Jehovah, they have dumped Jesus message and assignment he gave his followers.

Look who is ridiculing Christendom. Same guy I just schooled with verses showing him that Moses didn't see God. Yet you claim Christians can't stand JW in argument.

You claim they are defending Daddy GO. What about you guys defending Daddy GB?

Trinity is not oneness of God. God is in three distinctive beinygs. The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit. The Father is invisible. If you say you've seen him, then it's Jesus you saw because he is the image of the invisible God.

John 14:18-19
Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?

There is an heirachy in the Godhead. Jesus said he cannot do anything of his own except what he sees he Father doing. That means he cannot do anything contrary to what the Father does. And if he can do everything the Father does, Doesn't that make him God as well?

Of you want to argue about Trinity, open a thread for that. Don't derail us from the whooping you are receiving here.

Respond to my post on this.


In fact , this was the question that would have exposed you a long time ago .


#Claps hands in disgust# , And where did you read that Jehovah's Witnesses don't preach forgiveness of sins through Jesus name Ogbeni ?

You claim to be Jehovah's witnesses but you know no man has ever witnessed Jehovah. But look at Jesus Christ speaking below, telling you to be witness of events of his time.

Luke 24:46-48 "In this way it is written that the Christ would suffer and rise from among the dead on the third day, and on the basis of
his name repentance for forgiveness of sins would be preached in all the nations-starting out from Jerusalem, YOU are to be witnesses of these things."

Humans were witness of Jesus Christ, how he was born, preached, healed, crucified and resurrected. They went about preaching that to people in the time of the apostles. But today, JW have abandoned that message and are centering o. the kingdom of God which they have not witnessed.

Since Jesus said we are to be his witnesses, isn't it appropriate that you people should be called Jesus witnesses?

This is the problem with churchgoers and their heresies! You're discussing with an ATHEIST who needed to be convinced through your presentation and standards you're setting in other to have regard for the written document(Bible) that you revered so much. So he can't UNDERSTAND you because he is NOT born again! Is it been born again that must come first or conviction to see reasons,accept Christianity and getting baptized in water as a symbol of dedication,and later born of spirit? If people must be born again before understanding the message then who is to blame for those not accepting it? them or God that has not anointed them with the Holy Spirit For your information, Nicodemus was one and the ONLY person Jesus mentioned been born again to in the entire Bible and Nicodemus has already accepted Jesus' teachings as in AGREED that Jesus' message is the TRUTH.

Nothing virtuous, yet they are the ones that brought Christianity to your continent. They built free primary and secondary schools and saved many souls. Have succeeding in converting the people from paganism into Christianity, a new comer called Jehovah's witnesses are now trying to convert those people to become heretic like themselves.

The truth of the matter is that they knew nothing as in NOTHING about Jesus of Nazareth!
Because i bet it if they were His contemporaries, they'll do worst to Him than the Pharisees.
God created man not with the ability to rule over themselves but Adam chose to be independent,
Satan seized the opportunity since God drove them away from the garden and started ruling behind the scenes using humans kings as puppets. That's why God wasn't pleased with Israelites when they demanded for a King
because Jesus was the one and only King who can rule mankind without being influenced by Satan's tactics.

Pharisees knew all of these but they just won't accept the humility
and selflessness Jesus was preaching and teaching as the only criteria to rule with Him.
So they decided to do away with Him believing God can't abandon them as Abraham's descendants.
God's Kingdom means a government that's to be ruled by God but with someone sitting on the throne as HIS representative.
Until humans are trained to perfection in other to be 100% obedient to God, that's why Jesus must rule for 1,000 years.
This is the position that the Pharisees were eyeing but Jesus told them that it's for humble and selfless people.
That's what brought about the BORN AGAIN issue.
So whoever is eyeing positions and high ranking offices can never be or remain a Christian.
I've been busy catching up on few of your recent comments and liking each, until I got to this one

- "God created man not with the ability to rule over themselves"
If not that they jumped the gun, eventually, they would have ruled by themselves (i.e. self rule)

- "That's what brought about the BORN AGAIN issue"

Like me?! Bold is extermination!

Gods, in general, is more representative.
Humans can't live independently of directions so we need some forms of "dos and donts" but such can't be firm in the minds of intelligent creatures if it's not instituted by a superior authority. That's why we're having rulers, yet the system has flaws because those making the rules are trying to live above the rules. Ecclesiastes 4:1,8:9 This is inevitable since they will have some of the subjects to whom they must show favoritism e.g close relatives. God is the one and only person who has the right to rule because none of us is HIS relative so HE can't become partial in judgement,since HE is the creator of both great and small. Revelations 4:11 So for orderliness to be maintained all humans must undergo a training as knowing the principles which is to be conducted by HIS representative,handed over to family heads and finally to each member of the family circle. Deuteronomy 6:6,7 Those who won't agree with this arrangement will continue to constitute nuisance,even if they're claiming to be orderly what about members of their house under their control? Don't forget that if your child noticed that you're living by own understanding he/she will decide to do the same and pressures from pair will certainly affect them since they're living in the midst of other intelligent creatures. So you can't predict what they'll turn out to be. 1Samuel 8:1-3 That's why you must strive hard to live by the rules and inculcate in them the same rules from someone to whom you're also accountable "the Creator". Extermination of those who disregard this perfect arrangement is a must if life on earth will be blissful and secure. Psalms 37:9-11 compare to Zephaniah 2:2,3

Hmmmmmmmmmm thanks for the observation! "Please i want you to know that this is not the proper channel for our preaching and teaching program but we just need to clarify certain things in order to prove those who are misrepresenting us as Christians in the society as false!" (1) Well humans as intelligent creatures needs guidance but not from their fellow creatures,because of the inevitability of prejudice. Ecclesiastes 4:1,8:9 Even man despite being an intelligent creatures still finds it difficult to make wise decisions so since he can't wisely direct himself,he's not qualified to give others directions. Jeremiah 10:23 (2) God has arranged that a training program need to be put in place to redeem man back to perfect order,a King who has lived,studied and understood the feelings of humans should lead the training program. Isaiah 9:6 The King must have co~rulers who will take the training to far distance but first they must be trained, tested and trusted. They must first display all the qualities required for excellence in performance. So Jesus started the preaching and teaching from Judea,His co~rulers must be selected from amongst those who welcomed the training,Jerusalem supposed to be the seat of their government but Jerusalem has been polluted with the blood of holy prophets and finally the Messiah(Himself) was falsely accused, arrested, judge and sentenced to death in Jerusalem! That's why He foreseeing the event told His friends who were to rule with Him that He will go and prepare another place for the government house, but this time in the place from where He has come(heaven). Humans can't go there because it's an abode for Spirits ONLY. Psalms 115:16 So these co~rulers needed to be transformed into another body (spirit body) before they can go there, that's the reason for the BORN AGAIN! Nicodemus was one of the rulers amongst the Jews that time and their thoughts is that when that promised King arrives He will select them first, so Jesus told him that he must be Born Again(first undergo the training, become a frontiers in preaching and teaching, then God can consider him to be part of the chosen ones) since it's not even Jesus Himself who chooses the co~rulers but the Almighty God. Matthew 20:20-23
Re: Question For Jehovah Witness, Why The Name? by Nobody: 7:57am On Sep 20, 2018
#Muttleylaff: So born again is not for all dedicated servants of God but just few selected Christians that are going to rule with Jesus in heaven. They must be born again, as in spirit beings! None of the faithful servants of God before the commencement of Christianity qualifies for the privilege because they never under go training from the Prince of peace. Matthew 11:11 So their own reward is what has been promised from the beginning (everlasting life on earth). Millions of Christians will also live forever here on earth marrying and having children (Isaiah 65:23) but as for the born agains they're to live forever as spirit beings with Jesus in heaven. "No more marriage" because in heaven there is no gender differences. Luke 2035,36

There are Two roads, Matthew 7:13,14 God has put enmity between HIS servants and those of Satan. Genesis 3:15 No matter how many contradicting doctrines and conflicting teachings Satan and his agents are carrying about(broad way) the one and only group that's teaching the truth (narrow part)will remain visible to all. Matthew 5:14 And they'll form alliance against them. Matthew 10:22,John 17:14 Even when Jesus taught his followers never to harm people, those worshipping Satan will continue breathing threat against God's servants and the irony of it is they'll keep saying "we're working for Jesus".John 16:2 So it's Satan that's grouping all these different religious groups who happens to be his agents (unknowingly to them) against mordern day servants of God. Revelations 12:17 Satan is doing this because he's aware that there is always one group or organization that God often use in any generation and they're the one and only group that can detoxify his burning missiles(tactics).Isaiah 54:17

I noticed that when JW is losing on a thread, they try to bring in another thread's topic to detail the argument. Barristter07 tried it, it failed him. So, stay off that idea and stick to topic.

hahahaha don't worry, the thread is Loading ... grin grin

What baffles me is the way they come on social media to argue facelessly,when they see us face to face it's either sending us away without a word or shouting without listening. The last time i spoke with my cousin who is a pastor in RCCG, he bluntly told me "daddy G.O asked US not to argue with Jehovah's Witnesses" But the irony of the matter is that he has tried to argue for almost three hours after and seeing that he's not making any sense, he now remembered what their daddy G.O. told them. It was the wife who later came behind him to acknowledge the fact that she kept noticing throughout our discussion that i was making references to the Bible but her husband (Pastor) was arguing based on what's generally accepted with no scriptural proofs. She said "but daddy G.O said you JWs don't believe in the Bible" So she became confused

That verse still centres around Jesus. Nowhere are we instructed to call ourselves Jehovah'switnesses. We are disciples of Jesus, so we are Christians.

TATIME:
Extermination of those who disregard this perfect arrangement is a must if life on earth will be blissful and secure. Psalms 37:9-11 compare to Zephaniah 2:2,3
Not a lot of people agree with this mode of thought anymore. It was common in Europe in the past, but not anymore do people feel the need to exterminate those who don't agree with some religious arrangement of gods that aren't their own gods. With the exception of the likes of alqaeda, isis, bokoharam, it's almost non-existent anywhere in fact. A lot of people just live and let live.

So, do JWs plan to exterminate those who don't agree with them?

Jesus said he "bear witness to the truth (God's word, John 18:37), therefore, he witnessed for God, Jehovah his Father.
" For we have testified (Witnessed) about God that he raised Christ from the dead " 1Cor15:15. For once in your life, admit the truth U saw in that verse -Witnesses of God testified that Christ was raised from the dead.

See your lie " that verse centres around Christ".
Ogbeni, did Christ raised himself from the dead? U leave substance dey chase shadow. Dalu. rinne !!!!

JWs DON'T (& cant exterminate "those who don't agree with them"
Just like Noah did, our assigned is to preaching the Gospel of God's kingdom Matt24:14. Mark 13:10. . 2pet 2:5-7.

The judgement & extermination of wickedness from the whole world, God gave that assignment for Jesus to perform..
2 thesis 1:5-9.. Matt 24:36-39.
john 5:22,27.

Jesus never exterminated anyone! And God sef got tired of exterminations very early on with Noah and salt, or was it a burning, unless one wants to consider the numerous sackings of Jerusalem.

Well you're right because most intolerant religious groups want to help God in the judgment, but as for Jehovah's Witnesses we must continue preaching and teaching to help as many as we can until Jehovah says "it's enough". We must not engage in extermination of life in anyway be it for God or any other reason whatsoever. Matthew 26:52 Because Jehovah is the giver even Satan must take permission before exterminating any soul. Job 2:6 compared to Daniel 3:16-18 And that permission he'll get if God knows that it will cause no damage to HIS own program. For example many have sold their souls to Satan in exchange for wealth so he has the right to exterminate them anytime he wishes but as for others he must not touch because they can still repent and turn around.

Pls read again & note what those quoted Bible verses revealed. The coming of the son of man, Jesus Christ , to pass judgement & destroy wickedness, just like in Noah's day. It's a futuristic event that will certainly happen. Discovery of Noah's ark & frozen mammoth some where in the Caucasus region attests to the great flood that occurred in Noah's day. Shalom.
