Quote> to be sincere with you, despite all you wrote I couldn't understand a thing.
Well perhaps if you would just study the bible, and not your own re-written bible-than you may understand what the Spirit of God is showing you-He interprets, how the bible is written.
See the bible isn't just a everyday book, the bible is a spiritual book, and to connect with it you must give your life completely over to Christ. and become a born again Christian-Its the Spirit of God who shows us the true meanings what the word of God says.
Centuries have past' and still in this day and age-Man have tried to use their own fleshly minds to work out to truth about Christ, and still man seems overly confused who God really is, listen we need the Spirit to glide our ways.
Man can't understand the bible without the Spirit of God-its impossible to even go down that road in the flesh. You JW's believe only certain men and women have these spiritual gifts, in God's eye's we all do from those who chose to believe. Listen the bible stands above all other books-You cant change what God had written. Its the truth that will set you free.

John 3:6 flesh gives birth to flesh, but the spirit gives birth to spirit. Meaning to say, the flesh can't answer what is spiritual.
It's funny with you JW's you always find it hard practising the truth-you are walking through the neighbourhoods sharing not the truth about Christ-but another, your teachings is like living in a pictured fairy tale.
Your beliefs are against every other religions-you believe only the 144 000 will rein with Christ. Well I have news for you, turn from your wicked ways, come and follow Christ, He will give you that same promise He had given to all His followers.
I do understand why you are finding it hard to understand the truth about Christ.
But hey I am here to help you.
So I have to write this again>When the lord said the meek shall inherit the earth-He is talking about the new Jerusalem coming down from heaven, In the mean time our spirits rein with Christ. Revelation 21:2 Then I John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.
I hope you understand that?
And still you have refused to tell our viewers why the JW's rewrote your bible, and why did the Watchtower leave out Acts 8:37 its because the JW's don't believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God-but the Ark Angel Michael who came into the world just as a man, and returned back as the Angel, sitting at the right side of the throne of God.
As I said: you take verses out from each chapter, without having any understanding, every chapter has a story-and if you want me to be convinced then preach the word as its written.
Bro..Cant you write something in a way it can be understood?
Im not here to fight or curse churches or tell people I know better than them.

Maybe if you write clearer I might understand. For now,still no show. Sorry

Revelation 6:9-11 the fifth seal>When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held.
And they cried with a loud voice, saying "How long, O Lord, Holy and True until you judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?"
And a white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them that they should rest a little while longer, until both the number of their fellow servants and their brethren, who would be killed as they were, was completed.
So we see the word is telling the story-its written in black and white-the saints are already waiting in heaven.

Its good about you JW's you pick out one script-without reading the rest, trying to push your point across-without reading the hole chapter in
Matthew 5 verse 10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness " sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Verse 12 "Rejoice and exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in HEAVEN, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you. Meaning to say> our brethren are resting in heaven until the day of the Lord. {Nothing is said about the 144 000 you JW's believe}
Revelation 21:1-8 " And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea.
Then I John, saw the Holy City, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, "Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be with them and be their God.
"And God will wipe away every tear from their eye; there shall be no more death,nor sorrow, nor crying; and there shall be no more pain, for the former thing have passed away.
Then He who sat on the throne said: "Behold, I make all things new." And He said to me, Write, for these words are true and faithful.
And He said to me, "Its done! I and the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give of the foundation of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. {And theirs still more to come into the kingdom}
" He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be His God and He shall be My son.
" But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murders, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have there part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.
So if this doesn't help you, to see the scriptures talking to you, then theirs nothing I could help you with, these are the words from the Lord. {Not my own}
One question I would like to ask since you are in a great mood, why the change-why do the JW;s believe they needed to rewrite another bible? And leaving out the main verses such as Acts 8:37-I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Why hide the truth?
A very simple question yet no answer.
So u saying I should focus on the scriptures you cited and let others go?

Of course the lord said that,he also said the meek ones will inherit the EARTH and delight themselves in exquisite abundance of peace.

To be sincere with you,despite all you wrote I couldnt understand a thing.

As for the scripture,Jehovahs witness is not the only church that wrote their scripture..and what more,we did so from the original manuscript. That is why. We had to translate without mixing our beliefs,exactly what is on that manuscript.

Do you know perhaps the story of
William Tyndale and his disciple Coverdale?

You see we do not leave any bible verse in obscurity.
We believe that some people will go to heaven and others earth.. but you only believe that ALL good people will go to heaven.

So what do you have to say about Psalm 37:29.10,11?

brocab:
One scripture we won't find in the JW's bible is Acts 8:37 I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
You claim you know Jesus with your lips, but your hearts are far from Him.
Matthew 23:13 Jesus said: "But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of heaven against men; for you neither go in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in. You believe only a 144 000 will rein with Christ-how wrong you are, Jesus said: all those who chose to believe in Him and follow His commandment's will enter in to be with Him.
No-true believer misses out.
You search the neighbourhoods-coming in the name of the Watchtower-you are leading the innocent to hell. You have turned the bible scriptures around, writing your own, leaving out who Jesus really is.
Permit me to ask..if all the believers go to heaven to rule with Christ who will be on the Earth?

Reference: Psalm 37:10,11. 29
Mattew 5:5
Rev 21:4.
Nairaland GeneralContenance-not A Clue To Another's Greatness. by Sarang(op):
These stories I share here ain't fake.

I used to want this lady's attention, I knew her far back, Not that i wanted any romantic affair with her, But seriously I just wanted her to be a friend. I purely liked her. She snubbed me, Went behind me and told her friends that I'm inadequate for her time, This happened two years ago.

I have her on my Facebook account, I send her messages and was seen by her but not replied. I stopped and stayed on my own.
Sorry to say, when I started becoming popular on social media, She started inboxing me, I'll reluctantly reply. She did that for sometime. Then when I trended on Linda ikeji's blog, She came back trying to talk to me, My replies were cold.
When I dropped my first single, She sent me a mail, Appreciating God blah blah blah..
I overlooked, tho replied her.
She has been an ardent follower of my articles..

She asked several people for my number, they told me and I restricted them.
Just yesterday I posted a photo with my pastor's car and claiming mine by faith, only for her to drop her number with me, that she wants us to go on a date when she's in town.
I'm sorry, she might be reading this, But at least nobody knows her, She knows herself.

You see this life? Countenance won't give a clue to someone's greatness. Treating people inferiorly has no gain.
You must not like everybody but don't demean them, don't say they ain't good, don't say they ain't talented, don't say they are old fashioned.
Anything happens in life, Things we never expect.
That gateman you are looking down on might turn to be your husband, or boss.
Life is too small to boast about, the face you see today, you'll see tomorrow.
Don't ever let anyone feel demotivated and small cos of you.

The best time to be the friend of a president is before he becomes a president, That's the true test of friendship.
You see in my life, All those that believed in me when I was nobody, they have the best part of all I've acquired and all I'll ever achieve.
Everyone wants to be a celebrity's friend, but his real friends are they ones that never left him when he was in the process of greatness.

Its never easy to believe in a man when he has nothing, if you anyone does that to you, when you get to the top, Remember them.

I will not have anything to do with a person who's loyalty I haven't tested. I'm a public person, Fine, but truth is that I hardly have friends, Except those who gave me food when I was hungry and told me that all will be fine.
I won't betray them. That doesn't mean I hate those who ignored me, I love you all with the love of God.

If you want to eat with me, Let's work together.

People might look down on you, But if you purpose driven you, They'll someday look up to you.
Any how you are, You are a solution to someone's problem, Okay?

When I had one cloth, when I looked tattered, when I was mere, those that never valued me, Should never value me again.

Nobody is a nobody.

Ladies and Gentlemen, if you want to be really relevant in a person life when they're great, Help them when they're nobody.
But please real help comes without the motive of future gain..

Social media is full of trolls and Nairaland isn't an exception. Let's apply wisdom brothers and sisters and know when to stop responding. If Jehovah wills it, everything we've been saying here will touch their heart someday. Remember the world is watching this thread. They wouldn't say anything when people insult us rudely, but they will pick on how we respond to them.
This thread will go on and on, which is feeding the ego of the false accusers. So please let's apply godly wisdom
You are right.

Guys let it go abeg.
Enough of the arguements.

The world is a challenge for people wanting to do Jehovahs will. It was to Jesus and we are not exempted.

Be strong and May Jehovah See Us Through.

He said it..That He is Jesus's throne.

Satan was referred to as "a god". The emphasis is "a god". The Bible calls us "gods" - Psalm 82:6. You and I know that is not the context of the verse in Hebrew - here is God the father addressing Jesus as God "with a capital G".

Hebrews 1:8: "But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom".

The question again is why would God Almighty call Jesus God?

I have another question. Thomas in the Bible called Jesus "My Lord and My God". Why would Thomas who was a believing Jew equate Jesus with God Almighty?
Jehovah called Jesus God?
And you are so sure its him saying it?

Thomas called Jesus My God and My Lord because to Thomas Jesus deserves that much.



You are right he said to his Son,God is your throne. And in your mind it means Jesus is God?

I have a Father and I am not my Father but my Father and I are human beings. Enough about me and my father, Here is what God the Father said about Jesus:

Hebrews 1:8: "But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom".

Here God the Father is calling the Son, Jesus, “God”. Can you tell me why God the Father will call Jesus God?

The issue then is why would Jesus say - The Father is greater than I. The answer is quite simple: Subservience in role does not equate to subservience in essence - let me explain.

Consider an employer/employee relationship. The employer has the right to make demands of the employee, and the employee has the obligation to serve the employer. The roles clearly define a subservient relationship. However, both people are still human beings and share in the same human nature. There is no difference between the two as to their essence; they stand as equals. The fact that one is an employer and the other is an employee does nothing to alter the essential equality of these two individuals as human beings. The same can be said of the members of the Trinity. All three members (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) are essentially equal; i.e., they are all divine in nature. However, in the grand plan of redemption, they play certain roles, and these roles define authority and subservience. The Father commands the Son, and the Father and the Son command the Holy Spirit.

It is stated clearly in the Bible:

1 John:5:7: "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one"

Can you please respond?
I will respond with a question..bear with me.

1cor 4:4 "The god of this System of things...

Here the bible refered to Satan as a god too.

Is Satan God?

Though I won't take it away from them, they do a wonderful job,
Some people are like that even in other religions. Its their personal life. Jehovah witnesses is a group. Still we try to be mindful of our lifestyle. Since it might bring reproach to Jehovahs name.

This is truly an eye opener. So Jehovah witnesses is not a religious organization but a religion.

Since they don't owe allegiance to the government, do they resort to their "fellow servants of God" instead of the Judiciary to endorse/enforce contractual agreement?

So the millions of Jews Hitler killed is insignificant compared to 1600 jehovah witnesses?

Brb
Not insignificant..just the reason is.
Because they refuse to fight their fellow human. Was that the reason the jews were killed?
