Janosky:In Matthew 13:41, Jesus said that he would sent forth HIS angels. This is not possible if he is not a God. In Mark 2: 5-11 Jesus clearly demonstrated his power to forgive sins. Can you explain how he got that authority? In John 14:13, Jesus asked us to pray in his name and he would do it. Not his father would it. In 1 Cor 1:24 Jesus is called the power of God. How do you explain all these? In your New World Translation, Colossian 2:9 states "because it is in him that ALL the fullness of the divine quality dwells bodily." My emphasis is on the "ALL the fullness of divine quality" can you explain what that means? Titus 2:13 "looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus," How do you explain this away? This one is from Peter (2 Pet 1:1) "Simon Peter, a bond-servant and bapostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have received faith of the same kind as ours, by the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ: I am waiting for your explanations. |

CANTICLES:Ignorance will not kill you one day, I pray! We read: “Jehovah raised a savior up for the sons of Israel that he might save them, Othniel the son of Kenaz, the younger brother of Caleb.” (Judg. 3:9)This is my statement: Jesus Christ was called saviour because HE SAVED MANKIND from their sin... Saviour is to save...so both Christ and Othniel were called SAVIOUR because they simply performed the act of saving... So how many Saviours does Isreal have?Is Othniel still Israel saviour today? One gave the other that title , shouldn't that tell you who is superior?Olodo...who is talking about superiority ![]() For Jehovah and othniel to be called saviour means they are equal , Shebi ?You lack comprehension... Jehovah and Othniel were called saviour because they both saved...what they saved from might be different... Who says this ?That's why I'll keep saying you lack comprehension... They both performed the role of apostleship...which means to SEND.... Do you agree othniel and Jehovah are SAVIOURS, how many Saviour does isreal have?Othniel is a saviour to those he saved Jehovah is a saviour of the world Today people still use the word saviour for those who rescued someone from danger... The critical point here is the meaning of SAVIOUR which is to SAVE The funny part of it is that, you didn't even consider the tone of the writer. Until u learn what it means when one gave a title to another to carry out his own purpose, you will continue to get confusedSo you agree that Jehovah gave Jesus the title MIGHTY God which is strictly for Jehovah Alone? In essence, Jesus is a Mighty God just as Jehovah is a Mighty God, right? |

Janosky:Show me where man and angels were called MIGHTY GOD in the scripture that's what I asked you. You always lie ,argue blindly and you will never admit the truth even if na Angel show am to you.Mr saint and angel, all I asked for is to... Show me where man and angels were called MIGHTY GOD in the scripture that's what I asked you. |

ChristianNorth:They can't explain those verses rather you will see how they'll twist it...to say what scripture didn't say. That Titus and 2 Peter have been corrupted by their NWT, |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by ChristianNorth: 5:26pm On Apr 07, 2019 |
Emusan:It seems you know them very well. Anyway, I was born into JW but I ran for my dear life. All the verses are from JW's New World Translation except 2 Peter, so that they would deny it if I had used KJV. They were unable to corrupt those verses |

| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by Barristter07: 10:01pm On Apr 07, 2019 |
ChristianNorth:no one dispute Jesus is a god . You already admitted he isn't the supreme being during your chat with canticles . Case closed. |

ChristianNorth:**1Tim3:15,16 NWT "But in case I am delayed ,that you may know how you ought to conduct yourself in God's household,which is the congregation of the living God, a pillar and support of the truth" v16"Indeed, the sacred secret of this godly devotion is admittedly great: He was made manifest in flesh" Christian Not doing what he knows best-- Lying Pharisee he is in word & deed. Your lies have caught up with you. |

ChristianNorth: ChristianNorth:You shot yourself in the foot with these your posts ,the first one dey North pole and the 2nd one stand jelely for South pole. "Jesus is a God,not God" U come dey misquote Bible verses wey U no know their meaning. Christian Not is very confused. He is on NL transmitting his confusion. Matt13:41. Mark2:5-11. John14:13 "Jesus spoke to them: ALL authority has been given me in heaven and on earth" by Jehovah. Matt28:18. Jehovah the Father of Jesus granted life and authority to his son .John 5:26,27. Jesus always perform his Father's command ( John 12:49) Jesus is a deity and saviour,it's no proof he is the Supreme God. Col2:9 simply confirmed that Jesus has qualities of a deity (divine nature). John 3:16 is valid. **"We have seen and do testify that the Father sent the son to be Saviour of the world" 1john4:14 U dey misquote 2 Pet1:1& Titus2:13 whereas Titus3:4-6 has annulled your wacky twist of Scripture. The scriptures can NOT be broken (or twisted) says Jesus ( John 10:34-36) |

Janosky:I won't blame you but the organisation that you belong to that depicts Trinity as a man with 3 faces. This is blasphemy, but you are lucky for the tolerance of christians, if not we would have done to you guys what sunni moslems are doing to Shi'ites. I don't know if you guys are intentionally stupid or just ignorant. Nobody is saying Jesus is the Supreme God because he isn't. Jesus is a God just as the Holy Spirit and they are the second and third persons in the Godhead. Your movement has rich history in twisting the bible. You claim that Jesus was not crossed on a cross while there are archeological and historical evidence that ancient Romans crucify criminals on a cross. You claim the Holy Spirit is not a person while the Bible shows that he speaks, grieves, forgives sins, comforts, fights. You guys believe that Jesus was enthroned in 1914, the year the Kingdom of God in Heaven was established. |

Janosky:When people have no defence for their ideology, they resort to using blackmail to sell it. The "He" in the bolden is a subject, in flesh is the object while the others in-between are predicates. I am sure you understand a simple sentence structure. Who is the "HE" referring to? Who was made manifest in the flesh? |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by ChristianNorth: 7:26am On Apr 08, 2019 |
Barristter07:I don't think any Christian denomination is claiming that Jesus is Supreme God. The crux of my argument is Trinity. If Jesus is a God, then Trinity is. Since he is, then the doctrine of trinity is valid. |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by haywizzy007(m): 8:28am On Apr 08, 2019 |
ChristianNorth:I really want to understand your own version of the trinity ...can you answer Yes to this question? Is the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit coequal, coeternal and copowerful? |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by ChristianNorth: 9:18am On Apr 08, 2019 |
haywizzy007:Remove co-equal because no christian denomination believes that Jesus is the supreme being. He is a God, the second in the Godhead and has all the attributes of the father in fullness. |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by haywizzy007(m): 2:49pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
ChristianNorth:Brother ChristianNorth, what sets Jehovah apart as the Supreme being of the universe? Your response to this question will most likely reveal the condition of your heart Please don't tell me it is mystery as most trinitarians are fond of saying that.. ![]() |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by Emusan(m): 3:13pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
Barristter07:Now using Hebrew to spew nonsense... Show me where it was translated as MIGHTY GOD for human and angels in your translation... Then why was it translated as MIGHTY GOD for Jehovah and Jesus Christ? |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by Emusan(m): 3:15pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
Janosky:I'm still waiting for you to show me where in the scripture man and angels were called MIGHTY GOD... |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by ChristianNorth: 5:40pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
haywizzy007:Because of the following portions in the Bible. 1. Jesus is the first born of all creations and through him everything that was made was made. This shows that Jesus was created. 2. And He gave him (Jesus) all the powers and authority in Heaven. This shows Jesus derives his powers from a superior power. 3. Father if you will, let this cup pass over me. This shows that there is a will that supercedes that of Jesus. 4. My father judges no one, but has committed all judgments to the son. Of course, a father is a greater than the son. 5. I do the will of Him that sent me. Jesus takes order and he is responsible to that supreme one. There are over a 100 verse that shows the supremacy of Jehovah. |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by haywizzy007(m): 9:33pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
ChristianNorth:Thumbs-up bro, you spoke the truth! But there is an honest truth i will tell you, you don't believe in the Trinity all because the basic tenets of the trinity doctrine opposes everything you wrote here, trinitarians believe Jesus is their creator, they believe Jesus is the one to be worshipped, some hardliners even believe it was the Almighty God that walked the earth. |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by ChristianNorth: 9:40pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
haywizzy007:The tenet of trinity is very simple for all to understand: Union of the father, son and holy spirit as one God. In a nutshell, it means the father is a God, the son a God and the Holy Spirit a God also. I have never seen any trinitarian that believe what you just narrated. |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by CANTICLES: 9:44pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
ChristianNorth:Not valid, remember there are others refered to as gods , to make it valid, u must add them too |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by CANTICLES: 9:45pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
ChristianNorth:U are not making sense, why limit at those three, when others are also called gods include humans? |

Emusan:@bold, at that point in Isreal history, how many saviours do they have ? |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by Emusan(m): 10:01pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
CANTICLES:If you didn't see answer to your question in my post then check your eyes and brain very well |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by Janosky: 10:05pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
ChristianNorth:LIEs from Christian Not. Trinitarians believed that their doctrine is difficult to understand |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by CANTICLES: 10:06pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
Emusan:Wounded lion , your eye don clear. Answer the question: at that point in isreal history, how many saviour do they have ? I asked because he said beside me, there is no saviour. So do justice to that . ![]() |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by CANTICLES: 10:10pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
ChristianNorth:You obviously have no idea what is been talked about . next time calm Jehovah says beside me there is no saviour, but othniel was called a saviour ? How many saviour did isreal have ? When u answer this, we know how many God they have as well |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by CANTICLES: 10:13pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
Barristter07: . Emusan sorry |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by ChristianNorth: 10:26pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
Janosky:It is a mystery. It doesn't mean the doctrine doesn't have basic tenets. Three different persons yet they are one and co-internal. This means the Father is the same as the Son, he is the same as the Spirit while Jesus is the same as the Holy Spirit. For instance, Isaiah called Jesus the eternal father, Jesus said, I and my father are one. 1 Cor 3:17 says "Now the Lord (Jehova) is that Spirit and where the spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. In fact there are over 15 verses that prove Jehovah is the same as the Holy Spirit. Jesus said in John 14 "I will not leave you comfortless, I will come to you again" He is Holy Spirit. In the Gospel of John 13:20, Jesus tells his disciples that “whoever receives the Holy Spirit receives Jesus and whoever receives Jesus receives God who sent him in their hearts”. Despite this co-internality, they are different persons and they are not equals. This is the mystery. |
| Re: Is The Jehovah's Witness Organisation Christian? by ChristianNorth: 10:32pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
CANTICLES:Of course, you are a god but you are not divine. Colossian says "in Jesus dwells all the fullness of divine attributes bodily" Simple question, who created the heaven and earth in Genesis? Of course, God. But both of us know that anything that was made was made by Jesus. John said it, Peter said it and Paul also said it. So Jesus is GOD. |
