achorladey: So you're the one citing the verses while he's just mimicking what he heard from his Pastors! Jesus said "if you sin against the son of man you will be forgiven but you won't be forgiven if you're sinning against God's holy spirit" {Matthew 12:32} now you're the one telling the accuser of God's people where to find what his Pastors told him, but who taught you? This same Organization of Jehovah's Witnesses! Pathetic indeed! 3 Likes 2 Shares |

TruthHurts100: Did I say SIN is a consequence of SIN . This must be the reason you cannot pick the common denominator between my definition and your definition .

achorladey:lol...there is no point in doing that cos he will still argue it. The best answer I can only give is if you genuinely want to know how jw practice their belief, visit jw.org and not just listen to twisted info that isn't even true. Remember the story of Satan and Eve? God said the day u will eat the fruit, you will die(don't eat d fruit) Satan said eating the fruit will open Eve eyes and God doesn't want them to eat it(eat d fruit). And their eyes opened truly and you know d rest of the story. The point I'm trying to bring out is, you can say something that is true and twist it to become a lie just to fit Ur narrative. All u just need do is add pepper and salt...... JW only stop associating with people who intentionally breaks the law of the bible and doesn't show a sign of repentance. That said, marrying someone that isn't a witness isn't a sin per say(just that it may affect u. Eg Solomon and his plenty wivies from pagan nation. They made him worship idols) so no witness will shun u for marrying who u want after all u will bear the consequences urself. So u see why I said he is lying Jw don't force u to marry jw. They only encourage u to do so. So u can both be able to encourage each other spiritually since Ur belief synchronize 2 Likes |

Janosky: "Trinity" is not even part of the discuss and you chipped it in because Jehovah Witness does not believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, and if you answer that a widow who is a member of the Jehovah Witness sect does not violate the commandment when she get married to a member of another denomination you will be entangled by the web of your doctrine since other denominations (though not all) believed in the trinity. Triune or trinity is a subject Jehovah Witness did not accept and the sect translated the Scriptures to accommodate their belief and doctrine which birthed the New World Translation. That subject (and others) won't be accepted by Jehovah Witnesses till the world come to an end, except their religious leaders at the top change their position. So no point for us to argue over this subject. But here is a few thing you need to know, or you already knew (but refused to accept): Deut. 6:4. • There's only one God. "God" is a name of a divine nature. There is but one divine nature. Therefore, there is but one God. • The One God is made up of the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. They are not pagan gods or idols (as you put it). • These Spiritual Beings divine members of the Godhead and are not three distinct or separate Gods or Gods that make the Godhead. Each member of the Godhead is equally divine in His nature. • But regarding the varying degrees of authority in the Godhead, the Father authority is greater than the Son's, and the Son's is greater than the Holy Spirit in that Jesus submitted to the Father's authority in coming to this earth (Phil. 2:5-, and the Holy Spirit was sent to the earth by the authority, or in the name, of Jesus (John 14:26). So, Jesus submitted to the Father's will and the Spirit submitted to Jesus. Jesus was still God in the flesh (Matt. 1:23) and the Holy Spirit remains God (fully divine in nature) as He does His work on earth (Acts 5:3,4). • Their existence and works are so interrelated that they cannot be separated from each other. All three members of the Godhead function in perfect harmony to make up one eternal God. No divine member can separate Himself from the other two members and continue to function as the one true God. Where one member is, the other two members are. • The Bible teaches that the Father is God (John 6:27; Eph. 1:3), the Bible also teach the Son is God (Heb. 1:. The Bible also teaches that the Holy Spirit is God (Acts 5:3, 4). • The Son is not the Father (Eph. 1:3-), the Father is not the Holy Spirit (John 14:26-). The Son is not the Holy Spirit (John 14:16). The above points proved and showed that there is relationship in the Godhead. • Bible passages that shows the Father is distinct, and the Son is distinct. 2 John 9; John 15:24; Acts 2:36; Matt. 17:5; 17:5; John 8:16, 18; John 5:31, 32. John 5:30. • I believe in one God. But, things can be one in one sense yet more than one in another sense. Gen. 41:1, 5, 25 (Pharaoh had two dreams, but the Bible says that the dream was one). Also you can read John 17:22, back it up with verses 20 and 21. Also read Gen. 2:24; 1 Kgs 22:13 (See John 10:30; James 2:29). • For you and I to have a good understanding, the words "triune" and "trinity" are words used to described the Godhead because the Godhead is made up of three distinct divine beings or Members and these are: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. • We cannot know all that was revealed to man concerning these three distinct divine beings, but what we need to know about them (the Godhead) was revealed to us in the Scriptures and that should be sufficient to for us. I hope you now have a better understanding of God and the Godhead and why the words: triune and trinity are used to describe the Godhead. |

atoleybaba: 1. The first I bolded, is it everything about JWs that is on the WEBSITE? 2. Will you readily accept bolded 2 applies equally to JWS? 3. Do fellow JWs have problems, issues, marital separation, divorce like those Jws who marry a like you love to call THEM CHURCHGOERS? Note: No one asked you to tell us if it is a SIN to marry a CHURCHGOER. I only SAID tell the person you are posting to that JWs don't practice SHUNNING? atoleybaba: and not just listen to twisted info that isn't even true Achorladey: When someone even cite the publication of the ORGANIZATION you belong it is often seen as TWISTED info that is not TRUE. E CLEAR. e.g in numerous publication of your organization says no one can understand the BIBLE outside of the ORGANIZATION? Is it twisted INFO or it is TRUE? Reason along with the below..... At least I have seen in your publications where someone that has completed the BIBLE STUDY program not baptized is seen as a BELIEVER while a baptized CHURCHGOER fully devoted even with high moral standard than some in your ORGANIZATION is seen as UNBELIEVER. How will you corelate the ABOVE? Since someone that is not baptized is seen as a BELIEVER in your ORGANIZATION why can't such person marry based on 1 Corinthians 6:14 as highlighted by Chantinent? Or, if it's baptism that determines who is a BELIEVER then the question becomes .... why do your same ORGANIZATION see person that is not baptized as a BELIEVER? |

See I don't support all these camouflage lifestyle you people like adopting — abeg let everyone on this thread know where you're coming from bikonu Meanwhile @the bolded, we're following Bible instruction at Genesis 9:4, Leviticus 17:11,12, Deuteronomy 12:23, Acts 15:28,29 NOT to consume blood in any form.

From their publications.......... 1. Individual that is born and bred in the ORGANIZATION and had completed the Bible study programme culminating in baptism is a BELIEVER (and in the Lord) 2. Individual who was born and bred in the ORGANIZATION and had completed the ORGANIZATION Bible study programme is not an UNBELIEVER( and not in the Lord) 3. Someone that is not a BAPTIZED churchgoer is an UNBELIEVER? 4. Some that is a baptized CHURCHGOER is an UNBELIEVER Here is 1 Corinthians 6:14..... Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness also read the KEY below before attempting questions QUESTION 1. Can 1 Corinthians 6:14 be applied to INDIVIDUAL 1 and INDIVIDUAL 2? 2. Why do JWs see INDIVIDUAL 2 as not an UNBELIEVER but see INDIVIDUAL 4 as UNBELIEVER? 3. What do JWS call an INDIVIDUAL that is not an UNBELIEVER? 4. When an INDIVIDUAL is not an UNBELIEVER from the scripture, What is such individual called?( Paul separate into two......BELIEVER and UNBELIEVER) Since JWs see baptism as what qualifies one as BEEN in the Lord. Then it means JWs view churchgoers as not baptized in the name of the Lord? 5. Therefore, what is the name of this Lord JWs baptize their MEMBERS? Jehovah or Jesus 6. What is in the name of this Lord? KEY ........ For the most part, an individual is an unbaptized publisher only for a limited period of time, until he progresses to the point of baptism. So the above counsel to marry only in the Lord is not unreasonable. What, though, if someone is of marriageable age, has been brought up in a Christian family( ma fo JW family lo tumo si ), has been active in the congregation for a number of years, and serves as an unbaptized publisher? Well, what has held him back from giving his life to Jehovah in dedication? Why does he hesitate? Does he have doubts? While he is not an unbeliever[b], he cannot be spoken of as being “in the Lord.”w04 7/1 30-31........... article based on 1 Corinthians 6:14. |
