JW porn addict. This is a first. JW guys come and help your brother o. He is so addicted to porn now that he has chosen to hide under a female moniker to defend you people and perpetuate his porn habbit. Now he can't bear the shame of openly claiming he is your brother so he is lying that he is a friend of the family. Lmao. Russia is the least of your worries.

That means Islamisation of Russia.
Russians must resist next step by Buhari to Fulaninise Russia. Abi no be so? shocked
Islam had already made an impression on the Baltic when the mongols invaded Russia.
also the ottoman Turks conquered Russia reason you see slavic version of ibrahim as ibrahimovic.
my point is that the witnesses are never anything near fundamentalism,if they are accused of wilful unpatriotism as regarding their neutral stand on political matters,it would have appeared sensible

Good question!

Russia and America have been rivals for over a century now, therefore both countries are always at each other's throat.

God established his pure worship in America because that is the first world power to say there should be FREEDOM of SPEECH, EXPRESSION and WORSHIP!
Thus America granted all worshippers freedom no matter the kind of worship, as long as it's not intended to harming their neighbours!
All other past world powers do oppress the worship of the minority, making it extremely difficult for God's people who are always few to worship freely!

Russia planned to dominate the world, but America used diplomacy to divide them. Now they're trying to make all their people loyal to the Russian authorities so that they can re~strategize. But the most faithful and loyal ones amongst them have chosen to live for Christ {the Prince of Peace} this means such ones won't just join in killing someone simply because the politicians ruling their country gives such orders!

Moreover Jehovah's Witnesses will never carry weapons to kill anyone, so Russia felt that America has been using all forms of diplomatic means to sabotage all their efforts but this time they're ready to kill any infidel in Russia. So all Jehovah's Witnesses who have chosen to love their neighbours as themselves are now been treated as INFIDELS in their own country!

Just two years ago, the Russian authorities declared Jehovah's Witnesses a terrorist group. This called the attention of all other countries in Europe because everyone throughout the globe knew that Jehovah's Witnesses (though stringent with our beliefs) are the most peaceful religion on earth! smiley
So God told you he established his pure worship in America? Hmmm ok o

Good. Those guys are thoughtless extremists. I like what Russia is doing to them. Let them feel the pain they have been inflicting on others.

They like tearing families apart and ostracizing people who leave their church while their leaders engage in abuse of power and other sexual malfeasance.

Now feel it!!!

Hmm... I have also thought seriously about that last part. Since Jesus said his disciples will be persecuted. Could it just be that Jehovah's Witnesses are actually the true religion?
You know what... They are 95% the true religion compared to others Christain faith. I said 95% because you may still find fault in their way of worship.
They are the only religion that do not allow politician's( thieves ) to come do Thanksgiving in their place of worship or do first reading..

They are the only religion Whose activities is restricted in Russia, China, South Korea, North Korea, the list goes on.

They are the only religion that look the government in the eyes and say, Your lying to the people. only God's Kingdom will solve human problem.

Government will come and government will go but the world situation will continue to grow worse.

Yes they have bad eggs hiding among them and pretending to be religious and if you have valid prove against such a person wrong doing just walk to the person meeting time and report him or her. I promise you that your allegation will be investigated and if it's true, such a person will be excommunicated immediately.

There is no difference between radical Islam and jw beliefs I think that's why Russia says they are extremists.

In radical Islam there is a holy war aka jihad. The destruction/killing of infidels (those who refuse to accept islam) is done by humans who are radical Islamists here on earth. While jws believe there is going to be a holy war aka armageddon ie the destruction/killing of worldly, wicked, unrighteous etc (those who refuse to accept jw as the one true religion and unquestionably obey their gb) by their jehovah, jesus, Angels and gb who will go to heaven here on earth

Last last there will be gruesome murder of people who don't belong to their religion here on earth according to the 2.

HRHQueenPhil:
Can anyone explain wat JW did to Russia to get this type of punishment?
During the days of communism, our faith was banned throughout all Communist European countries. They were also imprisoned if caught. This however didn't stop the preaching work. For instance, in April 1951, all Witnesses (those they could find) in the Soviet Union, about 9,000 of them were rounded up from their homes and sent to Siberia. Despite the hardship and desperation they face, they turned their new settlement into new preaching territory and our numbers grew grin

We were granted freedom of worship once communism ended and our numbers multiplied many fold. This caught the attention of many orthodox Churches angered that their congregants were resigning from them and joining us. The Russian orthodox church has for decades sought a means to ban our work.

There are many reasons for Putin's behavior. Vladimir Putin was popularity was declining due to the poor state of the Russian economy and some painful reforms which he implemented such as increasing the age of retirement from 60 to 65 and was desperate to shore up his ratings. He seized the Crimea from Ukraine and engineered a needless war in West Ukraine encouraging separatism by indigenous Russian speakers who dominate that part of the country. These actions which did fit into Putin's political goals were also hugely popular.

The attack of Jehovah's Witness started belatedly and was influenced by the Russian Orthodox Church. I doubt Putin personally has anything against the Witnesses but since an attack on them shores up his popularity with the Church and they have boatloads of followers, he's gone all out to attack us.. Putin has been the Russian leader since 1999 and it was just within the last 5 years that the assault on us started and grew. The rise in the assault seemed to coincide with Russia's economic malaise worsened by Western sanctions.

Putin is a cold calculating populist and he is prepared to do anything to remain very popular. The Russian Air-force bombing in Syria was extremely popular in Russia and it portrayed Russia as strong globally. He doesn't give a damn about the Syrian people (if he did, he wouldn't bomb to oblivion Aleppo filled with people) but the measure shored up his popularity.

The Jehovah's Witnesses are just belated pawns in his chess game.

Of course, the true mastermind behind the whole thing is Satan. Jesus had warned us that his followers will be persecuted just like he was and that a slave was not greater than his master. We will not stop preaching until Jehovah says the work is done. The word of God can not be bound or can it?

All the JWs on this thread are just pained. They will then start claiming they are not JWs but quoting and insulting people that disagree with JWs at the same time.

You people deserve what Russia is doing to you. If you can force families to deny other family members because they left your church then you should be able to bear what Russia is doing to you. Simple.

Anybody that is not JW but is feeling sorry for them, I can only laugh at you. The only reason JWs are acting like the victims now is because they don't have the majority. Go to any gathering where they are the majority and you will see their true colours.

If you give them their own country and they are majority in it, they will ban singing any national anthem and celebrating birthdays. If Russia is that bad leave there and go to other countries that can tolerate your weird doctrine.

Well it's because you never read my comments with care!

If it's only Jehovah's Witnesses organization that will never carry weapons for no reason whatsoever! Matthew 26:52

If it's only Jehovah's Witnesses organization that stands out differently against racism by discarding national anthems. (oaths taken to be loyal only to those of your race) Matthew 5:44

If its only Jehovah's Witnesses organization that has being persecuted for their faith when they're always easygoing! Matthew 10:22, John 17:14-16

If it's only Jehovah's Witnesses organization that is globally known for having unwavering LOVE for their fellow members whom they've never seen before! John 13:34-35

Then that means Jehovah's Witnesses is the one and only organization belonging to Jesus who emphatically said "My followers will become one body but the world will hate them" John 17:20-23

You're mistaken Sir!

Russia's persecution of Jehovah's Witnesses is globally noted because our brothers and sisters there have been singled out as zealous preachers and teachers. So we're already popular there to all the government officials in Russia.

But in countries like Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Qatar, Afghanistan and co. Our brothers and sisters are zealously making disciples UNKNOWINGLY to their authorities there! Don't forget that those countries aren't ready to accept anything from Israel, so our brothers and sisters have penetrated into their midsts preaching underground and making lots of disciples who are doing their own preaching and teaching works INFORMALLY!

Moreover Jehovah's Witnesses don't make noise in streets {Matthew 12:19} so we're not noticeable when we're preaching and teaching INFORMALLY in your neighborhood. People only notice us where there is FREEDOM OF WORSHIP!

For your information, below are Jehovah's Witnesses (converts ) born, bread and brought up in those countries, who have surrendered all harmful weapons for the sake of Jesus {Prince of Peace}! Isaiah 2:1-4,9:6 wink
