Well if you were really searching for Jesus you would have had found Him!
Well Jesus called those who are living close to Him back then, many of them knew Him in the neighborhood before He got baptized by John but as for those living in far distance lands, Jesus never expected them to search for Him since they would have their own beliefs and teachings of their gods that's why He commanded His faithful disciples to "go and search for" such honesthearted individuals,preach to them about God's Kingdom and continue teaching them all that He(the designated King of God's kingdom) has commanded so that when He begin His rulership they may be accepted as citizens of God's kingdom! Matthew 28:18-20
So i can't possibly come from a Muslim background and start SEARCHING FOR JESUS whose position in God's arrangement i wasn't taught from infancy,remember when Paul was addressing Timothy, he said "Timothy has been taught from infancy" the things related to the Christ in God's word. 2Timothy 3:15 Therefore it's not a surprise that Timothy knew what to do,unlike me that came from some religion having nothing to do with the teachings of the Christ! True Christians don't just expect unbelievers to come to Jesus my friend, WHY? Because they were commanded to GO OUT in search for deserving ones. Romans 10:13-15

The OP has done well by presenting a group that he feels is preaching,teaching and practicing what Jesus commanded His disciples to do.
So whoever has a contrary opinion should do well to present another group that's better than his own and give vivid proofs just as he outlined 17 facts about an organization that he is presenting. Matthew 5:14-16
No right thinking banker goes out in search of fake currencies, rather bankers PRESENT the one and only legal tender so that everyone can study it closely to know all it's features. Thus whenever any fake currency surfaces people can fish it out!
This is what the OP has done and any right thinking person will understand.
Arguments regarding the meaning of the sacred writings is unwarranted because each person will continue to stick to what his/her religious teachers taught them.
The most important thing now is the PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS of what's written in the Bible and which religious group is helping it's members to benefit from the Bible maximally! Whoever has no group to present yet arguing profusely i suppose is making NO sense! undecided undecided

Must you belong to a group? When did Jesus say belonging to a group guarantees your salvation?
Jim Jones peoples temple owner told his group the same thing you are saying

"The most important thing now is the PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS of what's written in the Bible and which religious group is helping it's members to benefit from the Bible maximally! Whoever has no group to present yet arguing profusely i suppose is making NO sense!"


From your assessment Jim Jones peoples temple ought to be the true religion. Lol


For your information what concerns a banker looking for fake currency notes? Lol. It's like you are out of arguments.
Currency note isn't bible rather can your assumption be likened to religion.

You think you can deceive right thinking people with your fake currency note and banker gibberish? Lol

No wonder you guys assume different things in your cult and make it your doctrine.

Which right thinking human being will liken a fake currency note to religion? None. Only fools and brainwashed people will swallow your assumption.

Well for your information Hairyrapunzel is openly against what the true God asked the Israelites to do! therefore since you can't even figure out his thoughts which is totally against divine instruction i suppose there is no need giving you further audience.
The OP has presented what he knew about JWs and it's clear to anyone that he is now one of Jehovah's Witnesses, but if anyone has a contrary opinion then you can do well to point out a better option than JWs organization.
As for your friend, he is against God's decision to destroy unbelievers by means of heavenly forces. Note that he is NOT just against Jehovah's Witnesses alone anymore but AGAINST GOD'S JUDGEMENT as clearly written in the Bible! So if you can't discern such things i suppose there's no reason quoting the Bible for you again since you are ready to be on the side of those against the Bible! Farewell wink wink wink

What concerns you and God's judgement? Are you the one now dishing out God's judgement for Him?

God will stay on his own and TATIME will be thinking of how God wants to give his judgement. Interesting.

You can't quote a bible verse to support your claims that's why you say there is no reason to quote a bible verse.

You that quoted what the bible didn't say. Lol

undecided undecided undecided 1cor 7:5-6 doesn't say anything about god or gods, you mind is playing tricks with you... where in the Psalms dis Yahweh say His sons are gods? Is that what the verse said? undecided undecided


Psalm 82:1 says, “God presides in the great assembly; he gives judgment among the gods.” It is clear from the next three verses that the word “gods” refers to magistrates, judges, and other people who hold positions of authority and rule. Calling a human magistrate a “god” indicates three things: 1) he has authority over other human beings, 2) the power he wields as a civil authority is to be feared, and 3) he derives his power and authority from God Himself, who is pictured as judging the whole earth in verse 8.


For example, when God sent Moses to Pharaoh, He said, “See, I have made you like God to Pharaoh” (Exodus 7:1). This simply means that Moses, as the messenger of God, was speaking God’s words and would therefore be God’s representative to the king. The Hebrew word Elohim is translated “judges” in Exodus 21:6 and 22:8, 9, and 28.

Vs 7 days these gods/judges shall die like men and fall like one of the princes. Telling us they are mortals...

Now

As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one. For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and Lords many,) B[/b]ut to us there is [i]but one God, [/i]the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and [b]one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
1 Corinthians 8:4‭-‬6 KJV

Evident that there's only ONE GOD UNTO US


Yahweh said talking about other gods that there's no other God apact from me,

I am the Lord , and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
Isaiah 45:5 KJV

Thus saith the Lord , The labour of Egypt, and merchandise of Ethiopia and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine: they shall come after thee; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee, saying, Surely God is in thee; and there is none else, there is no God.
Isaiah 45:14 KJV


See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
Deuteronomy 32:39 KJV

From verse we see that no god with God except Him so The Word cannot be a god with God when God said there's no other god with me. Unless God is stupid to say there's no God except me then says again there are gods and that these gods are true Gods and He is the head of them but God is not stupid to imply that and that's why over and over again He said THERES NO OTHER GOD APART FROM HIM. Paul said there be many so called gods but unto us there's but ONE GOD..

which obviously in vs 7 of 1cor 8 he said not every man has that knowledge, you accuse us of that but guess what we never said there are many gods but ONE, you guys said there are many gods..

It's quite difficult dealing with illiterates. It's just too difficult trying to teach a kid things his mind cannot comprehend... hmmm..



Your brain na sawdust full inside.
U no even know wetin U read for your Bible (1cor8:5,6 & Psalms 82:1,6. na false gods?) talk less of wetin u dey post.
Yahweh did not make Moses the Almighty God neither did Yahweh make Jesus the Almighty God (Moses was a God, as Jesus too was a God) because Yahweh is the ALMIGHTY God, in fact, the Only true God.
Psalms 82:6 is too hard for your mumu brain to understand.

As for your cherry picking on Isaiah48:16,it's proof of poor knowledge of God's word.
Other verses confirmed it's a prophecy about Jesus Christ who was sent ,& endowed with Yahweh's ( holy) spirit.
Christ confirmed it, (Matt 3:16,17. John7:16, Luke4:18-21) whether U like am or not, your rants na noise.

You have failed to defend Isaiah 48:16 all you are saying is totally out of subject in question.. but that's your tactic diverting into another irrelevant verse to support your heretic claims..which verses uses Isaiah 48:16 as a reference to a prophecy of Jesus?

1) Your last sentence is concrete proof that common sense U no get. Why?
Yahweh did not send himself to himself.
Even U ,zodiakzax can not be messenger to yourself.

2)Throughout the holy scriptures, Yahweh always sent one else to deliver His divine proclamation, for instance, Yahweh sent Moses (Exodus 7:1,2), Yahweh sent Nathan (2Sam12:1)& His son,Jesus Christ (John 7:16)

3) U go fit explain Luk4:18-21,,Isa 61:1, John 17:3,John 8:28, John 3:34. 12:49?

4) Yahweh said to Moses : I have made U God" (Ex 4:16. 7:1,2) Moses was the word of God to Pharaoh.
Moses was God. Jesus was God, not Almighty God.
Moses is a god, also Jesus is a god. But Yahweh is the ALMIGHTY God.( Ex 6:3) .

U dey lie lie say "a god" means "false god".

Fear fear make U abandon your cherished KJV, which u refused to quote...
"The lord (Yahweh) said unto " Moses; See , I have made thee a god to Pharaoh"

The word BELIEVE is not applicable in this case because you're quoting just as JWs are also quoting. Whether Jesus is the Almighty or not can't be resolved simply by quoting Bible texts. What Jehovah's Witnesses are claiming is that Jesus always refer to the Almighty as "my father" and God always refer to Jesus as "my son". Of course it's not easy for anyone from any culture on this planet to agree that these two individuals are equals. Equals do refer to each other as either "my partner" "my colleague" "my twin" "my second" and so on.
Jesus said "I and the father are one" (John 10:30) he also said "so that they(His disciples) could become ONE with Himself and God(His father) John 17:21
So to interpret this statement as saying He is the same person as the Almighty becomes difficult,since He used the same term as a unification of His numerous disciples with the Almighty God and Himself!
Therefore instead of continuous argument without a solution, why not enumerate the features of true Christianity as written in the scriptures and allow the audience to discern for themselves which modern day religious group fits in COMPLETELY to such description? undecided undecided

Paul stood before critics and kept proving to them from the scriptures that there's just one group that's rendering ACCEPTABLE sacred services to the God of Moses "CHRISTIANS". Of course those critics are claiming they also believe what is written in the scriptures yet they are furious towards Paul's defence but honesthearted persons can grasp that Paul's words are of PRACTICAL WISDOM. Act 26:28 compared to Isaiah 54:17
So if a true Christian is making a defense of what he/she is practicing as in FAITH, critics will helplessly become envious with grief because inwardly you'll notice that "this is what faith truly means" something that you can explain with strong conviction!

Go out there to preach and teach people that father and son is Yahweh! At least you'll be happy doing something for your god. As for Jehovah's Witnesses, we have signed a life treaty with our own God "JEHOVAH" whose son is "JESUS" that we'll continue to preach and teach people that Jehovah "the father" sent Jesus "the son" as an example for all those desiring to live forever. We will NEVER agree that it's the same Jehovah that has come to lay example for us because that's unreasonable to any right thinking person! If Jehovah HIMSELF set the examples by coming in the flesh and passing all the test set before HIM by Satan,how can HE expect Adam's IMPERFECT offspring to pass such test?
So our belief remains that it was one of HIS heavenly creatures HE refers to as sons(Genesis 6:1,2,Job 1:6) that humbled Himself to live in the flesh and serve as an example for whoever wants to be adopted as God's son amongst Adam's offspring! Isaiah 11:10 compared to Daniel 12:1
We're supposed to be God's children through our first human father Adam.Luke 3:38 But since Adam has failed to pass lifesaving information to his children (Deuteronomy 6:6,7) we need another father who will replace Adam and get us connected to our grandfather again.

Jesus came not to save the righteous 'but sinners, people came from every region, from all directions looking for Jesus, many believed because they seen many miracles others believed the Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. "With Us is God!
{Exodus 29:45} "I will dwell among the sons of Israel and will be their God.

I was a Muslim before i became one of Jehovah's Witnesses today,it's the good works and fine fruits of the organization that caught my attention!
Make up your mind were you, or were you not a Muslim?

OneJ:


1) Your last sentence is concrete proof that common sense U no get. Why?
Yahweh did not send himself to himself.
Even U ,zodiakzax can not be messenger to yourself.

2)Throughout the holy scriptures, Yahweh always sent one else to deliver His divine proclamation, for instance, Yahweh sent Moses (Exodus 7:1,2), Yahweh sent Nathan (2Sam12:1)& His son,Jesus Christ (John 7:16)

3) U go fit explain Luk4:18-21,,Isa 61:1, John 17:3,John 8:28, John 3:34. 12:49?

4) Yahweh said to Moses : I have made U God" (Ex 4:16. 7:1,2) Moses was the word of God to Pharaoh.
Moses was God. Jesus was God, not Almighty God.
Moses is a god, also Jesus is a god. But Yahweh is the ALMIGHTY God.( Ex 6:3) .

U dey lie lie say "a god" means "false god".

Fear fear make U abandon your cherished KJV, which u refused to quote...
"The lord (Yahweh) said unto " Moses; See , I have made thee a god to Pharaoh"

grin grin grin

Exodus 7:1 NIV
Then the LORD said to Moses, "See, I have made you like God to Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron will be your prophet.


Ex 7:1 NLT
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Pay close attention to this. I will make you seem like God to Pharaoh, and your brother, Aaron, will be your prophet.


New American Standard Bible Ex 7:1

The LORD answered Moses, "See, I have made you like God to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother will be your prophet.


Why did you use kjv? Thought you said it's a corrupt version so why quote from a corrupt version to prove your point when you reject that version of the bible when Christians use it to judge their case? Hypocrites...

I don't only use KJV i use other versions of the bible except NWT to understand scripture. But it's striking what the NWT says since you believe is the most accurate version...


And your own NWT Ex 7:1

Jehovah then said to Moses: “See, I have made you like God to Pharʹaoh, and Aaron your own brother will become your prophet.

Guess you will reject the NWT because it goes against your lies
.I'm waiting for you to disregard your own translation... SHAME ON YOU...

I prefer you use your translation henceforth to argue your case became to you it's the most accurate version of the Bible. But if you want to use the kjv alone too then let's stick to kjv that's if you wouldn't get heart attack



Isaiah 48, Yahweh is speaking, vs 16 Yahweh sends Yahweh. I asked you what scriptures referenced that to a prophesy about Christ? These challenges your mind because you lack and refuse the doctrine of the trinity so of course I expected it to look foolish to you because you are already made foolish by your organization..


This verse is so above you that the more you try to inject your own understanding the foolish you seem.

The word BELIEVE is not applicable in this case because you're quoting just as JWs are also quoting. Whether Jesus is the Almighty or not can't be resolved simply by quoting Bible texts. What Jehovah's Witnesses are claiming is that Jesus always refer to the Almighty as "my father" and God always refer to Jesus as "my son". Of course it's not easy for anyone from any culture on this planet to agree that these two individuals are equals. Equals do refer to each other as either "my partner" "my colleague" "my twin" "my second" and so on.
Jesus said "I and the father are one" (John 10:30) he also said "so that they(His disciples) could become ONE with Himself and God(His father) John 17:21
So to interpret this statement as saying He is the same person as the Almighty becomes difficult,since He used the same term as a unification of His numerous disciples with the Almighty God and Himself!
Therefore instead of continuous argument without a solution, why not enumerate the features of true Christianity as written in the scriptures and allow the audience to discern for themselves which modern day religious group fits in COMPLETELY to such description? undecided undecided

can't be resolved by quoting bible texts yet "What Jehovah's Witnesses are claiming is that Jesus always refer to the Almighty as "my father" and God always refer to Jesus as "my son" is from a science text book right?? YOU ONLY SHOW HOW STUPID AND FOOLISH YOU ARE IN THINKING... the claim you hold on to, to support your heresies is also bible texts duhhh undecided undecided so what are you saying undecided undecided

My friend, there is NOTHING to getting yourself killed in places where you're not welcomed with your religion! What Jesus Christ said is "When they are persecuting you in one place, RUN AWAY to another safe place" Matthew 10:23 So whoever is trying to force his religious beliefs on UNWILLING audience is not doing so for Christ!
(1)Jehovah's Witnesses have convinced over 8 Millions following their organization to forgo anything to do with WEAPONS or WARS. Isaiah 2:2-4, Micah 4:3,4
(2)Jehovah's Witnesses have convinced all members to forgo the dirty game called POLITICS. John 6:15
(3)Jehovah's Witnesses have convinced all members to stick to God's original arrangement of marriage "one man,one wife" 1Timothy 3:2
(4)Jehovah's Witnesses have made a global family of like minded members from all races. John 13:34,35,17:20-22
There are many more FINE WORKS of this ONE and ONLY true Christian group that's OBVIOUS to all!
Hellooooooooooo that's what any right thinking individual will desire to know and not all these fruitless arguments of "I understand the scriptures much more than you" in the absence of PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS that's called WISDOM! cheesy cheesy cheesy


Obviously I replied to this and you ignored it. SHOWS HOW FOOLISH AMD IGNORANT YOU ARE IN UNDERSTANDING SCRIPTURES!! WELL HERE YOU GO AGAIN..



I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.
Revelation 2:13 KJV

Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
Acts 12:1‭-‬2 KJV


You are quoting Mathew 10:23, you have forgotten from vs 16 to 39? That's what you do, you use a verse and completely take it out of context

Vs 16: Jesus said He sends the Apostles among wolves,.hostile environment, so Christ is sending us already into a hostile crowd

Vs 17 He said me will deliver them up to councils and they will whip them in their synagogues which again shows that Christ is sending us into a hostile environment where they are unwilling to hear the Word but are forced anyways 

Vs18 that the Apostles shall brought before kings and governors, yet again this done because Christ is sending them to a hostile unwilling environment. 

Vs 21 Christ said brothers shall betray and deliver their own to be put to death and children shall rise against their parents and cause them to be put to death, and for what reason? We see that in vs 

22. AND YE SHALL BD HATED OF ALL MEN COF MY NAMES SAKE BUT HE THAY ENDURETH TO THE END SHALL BE SAVED

Vs 23 Christ tells them to move to another city when they persecute them because there's no time to waste on a city that doesn't accept the gospel, they need to waste no time for the Son of man's coming is at hand, so gospel must be preached on other cities also... they will be persecuted meaning they will be in a hostile environment 

Vs 26 Christ said they shouldn't fear, they can only be admonished not to fear when the environment is hostile hence the strength to preach on without fear

Vs 28 Christ said they will you but do not fear them that only kills the body but cannot kill the soul 

Vs 34 to 39 Christ said he didn't peace but a sword to the earth, many shall rise against his followers but those that will keep their life will lose it and those who will lose their lives for His sake will find it.


Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
Matthew 24:9‭-‬10 KJV


And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and [b]some of you shall they cause to be put to death. [/b]And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake. But there shall not an hair of your head perish. In your patience possess ye your souls.
Luke 21:16‭-‬19 KJV

You see how ignorant you are? You see how you are quick to cherry pick verses to suite your lies? You see how you quote out of context? That's how you are trained no doubt...



Antipas was killed for Christs sake and Christ said he was His faithful servant who died for Him (Martyr). Rev 2:13




We saw Stephen dying for the sake of Christ, James dying, all apostles except John dying for preaching Christ, John was even killed several times and Christ rescued him....

Church history tells.how many died for Christ, how many were tortured, burnt, crucified on crosses, given to animals to devour all for the sake of Christ. 


So please if you want to preach in a nice environment Then know that you are against Christ. How Then shall we be persecuted if we don't preach against other beliefs?

brocab:

Then who gave you 'your rights to invade people's private lives, without you having the Holy Spirit to guide you-when you keep on knocking and you can't come in..

You are mistaken, {John 1:11-13} He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
His own people didn't receive Him, His brothers didn't believe Him-until He was crucified!
Jesus came not to save the righteous 'but sinners, people came from every region, from all directions looking for Jesus, many believed because they seen many miracles others believed the Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. "With Us is God!
{Exodus 29:45} "I will dwell among the sons of Israel and will be their God.
Hmmmmmmmmm My friend,no matter how hard you try there's no way darkness can cover the light now. And no matter how much effort you put in,lie can't stand face to face against the truth!
For your first question :Who gave Jehovah's Witnesses the right to knock on people's doors or go to their homes uninvited? Well it's a young guy from Nazareth called Jesus! Matthew 10:11-15 He gave us this command but if we get to a new territory where we don't understand their culture, we must first try to study if they do welcome strangers into their homes with hospitality. Hebrews 13:1,2 So in such cases we won't start immediately going by just from house to house,until we have gotten used to the people there and gradually we'll start making friends who will acquaint us with the local customs.
But as for those "looking for Jesus" it was because they've learnt so much from the scriptures concerning the coming of the Messiah and heard about someone doing things related to all that has been prophesied about the Messiah, so many were searching for Him either to learn from Him what Moses promised about the Messiah (Deuteronomy 18:18) or to get their sick ones cured.
Today Jesus' warning rings in the minds of true Christians. Matthew 13:21
So it's either true Christians go in search of honesthearted individuals to preach to them and teach them what Jesus commanded regarding the kingdom of God or they(true Christians) congregate together to encourage one another. Hebrews 10:24,25
Unbelievers who haven't heard anything about Jesus can't possibly be searching for Him,not even now that there's so much deceit everywhere to the point that even you and your friends CAN'T point to any religious group that's worthy to be called the one and only true Christians. So how do you expect strangers as in nonbelievers to search for Jesus

Go out there to preach and teach people that father and son is Yahweh! At least you'll be happy doing something for your god. As for Jehovah's Witnesses, we have signed a life treaty with our own God "JEHOVAH" whose son is "JESUS" that we'll continue to preach and teach people that Jehovah "the father" sent Jesus "the son" as an example for all those desiring to live forever. We will NEVER agree that it's the same Jehovah that has come to lay example for us because that's unreasonable to any right thinking person! If Jehovah HIMSELF set the examples by coming in the flesh and passing all the test set before HIM by Satan,how can HE expect Adam's IMPERFECT offspring to pass such test?
So our belief remains that it was one of HIS heavenly creatures HE refers to as sons(Genesis 6:1,2,Job 1:6) that humbled Himself to live in the flesh and serve as an example for whoever wants to be adopted as God's son amongst Adam's offspring! Isaiah 11:10 compared to Daniel 12:1
We're supposed to be God's children through our first human father Adam.Luke 3:38 But since Adam has failed to pass lifesaving information to his children (Deuteronomy 6:6,7) we need another father who will replace Adam and get us connected to our grandfather again. Isaiah 9:6 compared to 1Corinthians 15:45

If you're truly sure of what you're saying on NL,go and teach people that both Jehovah and Jesus are the same person. Jesus commanded His faithful followers to go in search of honesthearted individuals and not sitting down in one place expecting people whose hearts are filled with all the anxieties of life to come to you and start listening to this your "Jesus is the Almighty God" story. Jesus taught what is PRACTICAL so that those willing to get a relief from all the anxieties of life can WORK on His TEACHINGS and become happy! Matthew 7:24-29, 11:28-30
Jehovah's Witnesses preach and teach by EXAMPLES,getting their Bible students acquainted with the PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS of what they're teach. That's what makes each dedicated member fully competent and completely equipped (2Timothy 3:16,17)as lifetime evangelists of Christ Jesus,having plenty to do in words and deeds for the work of our Master, Lord and King! 1Corinthians 15:58
I know you're all pained to the marrow,seeing that Jehovah's Witnesses are doing just all that is expected of true Christians. Well that's the same sign Cain noticed in Abel's works but instead of humbly accepting that his brother's sacrifice has been approved, Cain was so bitter that all his heart is to do away with Abel! smiley smiley
