Timalt:

I agree o. Truth is deep. Here we are discussing just the Christian faith, we have not even started discussing Islam or Judaism.
Those religions too believe they have the truth.

Just a side note for any Jehovahs witness who thinks they didn't teach organ transplant was cannibalism or thinks I'm lying.
See am here grin
"Sustaining one's life by means of the body or part of the body of another human ... would be cannibalism, a practice abhorrent to all civilized people. ... It is not our place to decide whether such operations are advisable from a scientific or medical standpoint... Christians who have been enlightened by God's Word do not need to make these decisions based simply on the basis of personal whim or emotion. They can consider the divine principles and use these in making personal decisions as they look to God for direction, trusting him and putting their confidence in the future that he has in store for those who love him." Watchtower 1967 Nov 15 pp.702-704 grin I have more receipts if una want.

Keep it up with your independent research Rozz.


".... They Look to God for direction........",
Is Timalt blind?
Quote the full text of pages 702-704, DUBIOUS Timalt.

There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in the said Watchtower of 1967 to draw up your DUBIOUS conclusions.

Oya Maximus69, answer this question

I'll attend to Timalt only!

So is it possible for all of you to allow just the two of us discuss maturely like adults?

Please Timalt, let's discuss, no insults, no abuses, each person should try as much as possible to show deep respect for one another's beliefs!

Please let's try and do this like adults! smiley

Will the above be all?

One can only follow the direction up there if we are in SIFIA PAINS truly

I told you before DISCUSS TRINITY from today till tomorrow on NAIRALAND. It will not DIE. I was there before you. TRINITY and its DISCUSSION has been in the world for 17 centuries. You will say it has DIED a natural death this MINUTE within the next MINUTE you are on another thread DRAGGING TRINITY. Na your palaver.

Believers of TRINITY, disbelievers of TRINITY and APOLOGISTS of TRINITY nothing stop all of them from developing good relationship with God.


Janosky: We don't owe you anything.... Any explanation whatsoever.

Achorladey: Our hands are not on your ON YOUR JUGULAR to give us explanations by FORCE.

Janosky: JWs we believe we are chosen by Jehovah God.

Timalt:

Aha!!! you are indeed a very studious person. Rozz I would please want you to read this if you can :
https://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/blood-transfusions.php#L1

BTW, do you know that there was a time when they considered organ transfer cannibalism? That led to the death of some jehovah's witnesses who couldn't receive full organs or body tissues. The funny thing is that many present Jehovahs witnesses do not know this.

That www.jwfacts.com is a gold mine for any Jehovahs witness that is really interested in knowing the truth about their organization.

Isn't it funny how before you utter a word, the jehovah's witnesses are already directing you to their website, but when we direct them to www.jwfacts.com they refuse to go and call it apostate material. When for the most part what was referenced on the site are jehovah's witnesses publications.

What they tell others to do, they refuse to do themselves.

How can someone call what he believes "the truth" if he is afraid of scrutinizing it?

Jesus Christ and Abraham NEVER gave excuses that their Life was more precious than Faith and OBEDIENCE to Jehovah's righteous Laws.
Matthew10:37-39.

Everlasting life is the reward for faithfulness. How foolish it would be to gamble away the prospect of life eternal for the very uncertain promise of a cure by blood transfusion!" Watchtower 1970 Apr 15 p.249.
OBEDIENCE to the Source of Life, Jehovah God is MORE IMPORTANT than your Life itself.


Abraham , Jesus and Jehovah's servants OBEYS Jehovah because of the lesson of Hebrews11:19 & Hebrews 5:7. John 5:28,29.
-the hope of Resurrection. Yahweh who OWNs Life will raise them back to Life.


Jwfacts,Archoladey,rottennaija,Timalt and their Crew no get the Faith and Obedient heart.

All the millions of people who died taking blood transfusions,has jwfacts brought anyone of them back to life?

Jwfacts is DANGEROUS, INSIDIOUS POISON
no goldmine there.

Show me the man/woman who was dismissed for breaking the rules ( wherever he used to be) who doesn't have an axe to grind or play up the victim card?

I don't think this forum is the right place. Jehovah witnesses are likely to knock on your door.

I don't need to force my opinion on you. my opinion is that they are the true religion

I don’t understand you

1. You see christianity as a white man's religion
2. You see the jehovah's witnesses as christians or as part of christianity.

But I am telling you that they are not Christians because they reject Jesus Christ's divinity and also their refusal of blood transfusion is NOT biblical.

Secondly, christianity was founded by God and is meant for every race (black, white or mixed).
It's NOT a white man's religion.

The road to Paradise is not that far!

But

THERE ARE MANY RIVERS TO CROSS

I believe you can no more be distracted by RIVERS like rottennaija and co.

But you need to be fully focused!

I was born, bread and brought up a Muslim but i saw the light of TRUTH from far away that's what attracted me to Jehovah's Witnesses Organization! Matthew 5:14-16

Pray heartily my brother and JEHOVAH will give you the power to concentrate on the real life {1Timothy 6:19} soon all these people you're seeing today will be no more! Psalms 37:9-11

What they failed woefully to know is that Jehovah cherish obedience more than sacrifice, that's what is making PEACE reign globally amongst Jehovah's Witnesses {Isaiah 2:2-4} of course it's can't be a coincidence, surely they are the followers of the Prince of Peace! Isaiah 9:6

Nice experience! I myself was military. What inspired me was actually realizing that humans cannot undo mankind's problems. Second, I noticed genuine love in the organization. Truly, I was convinced it was Jehovah's directed organization.

There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in the said Watchtower of 1967 to draw up your DUBIOUS conclusions.

For someone who has been proven wrong so many times, you seem not to have learnt to be discreet in how you talk. I provided clear evidence, and then you went and picked an expression out of context and tried to give it a different spin.

Here's further receipt :

"When there is a diseased or defective organ, the usual way health is restored is by taking in nutrients. The body uses the food eaten to repair or heal the organ, gradually replacing the cells. When men of science conclude that this normal process will no longer work and they suggest removing the organ and replacing it directly with an organ from another human, this is simply a shortcut. Those who submit to such operations are thus living off the flesh of another human. That is cannibalistic. However, in allowing man to eat animal flesh Jehovah God did not grant permission for humans to try to perpetuate their lives by cannibalistically taking into their bodies human flesh, whether chewed or in the form of whole organs or body parts taken from others."- Watchtower 1967 November 15 page 702

Here's the link : https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/1967845

Here's s the screenshot below to prove to all that your organization taught that organ transplant was cannibalism grin

We are to PREACH and TEACH!

So if you find something desirable in us we will help you see the need to join us, and if you have reasonable questions, we answer by teaching you from the Bible.

But when it comes to arguments we will run! Titus 3:9

If any of them want to ask questions, i'm ready to answer, but there are rules to guide against arguments, so we will agree on some rules then we can chat friendly as neighbours.

But in most times what this people feel is that we are on the same page with them, so they turn to insults and abuses when they find out we have different opinion, surely true Christians must avoid such! Ephesians 4:31; Colossians 3:8 smiley

@Rozz, can c u this hypocrite. Did he run on the other thread?
