grandstar: The italised was what was expecting you to say earlier on, now back to the watchtower quote: watchtower leaders tell you to confirm every teaching in their literature with the bible, but tag any independent scriptural interpretation apostacy. So why is the biblical esigenisis of the governing body the truth, but that of other churches: deeper life, CEC, RCC, apostolic e.t.c apostacy? Why is The "christain" who does not imbibe “elder advice” in bible study marked or sometimes even disfellowshiped |

paulGrundy: Am not gay, but am a man of orientation. A gay man is someone who practises homosexuality. A man of Orientation is one who is attracted to the samesex but refuses to act on it because of his Bible trained conscience. |

Religion / Vine Said Homosexuality Is Not A Sin by Yooguyz: 12:14pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
(Photo: Facebook.com)Matthew Vines holding a Bible in a photo dated Aug. 16. Matthew Vines is a 22-year-old gay Christian who believes being gay is not a sin. He came to that conclusion after two years of studying Scripture and the works of dozens of biblical scholars. The Harvard University student, currently on leave of absence, is now trying to win over fellow believers not just with an emotional testimony but with what he is presenting as biblically solid arguments. "There is no contradiction between being Christian and being gay," he told BBC. His arguments – mainly against six Bible passages that are commonly used by Christians to condemn homosexuality – are gaining popularity as evidenced by his YouTube views. In six months, an over hour-long video of Vines meticulously challenging what he calls the traditional interpretation of Scripture has garnered nearly 400,000 views. In an interview with The Christian Post, Vines made it clear that he believes that Christians who believe homosexuality is a sin are wrong. "Loving, same-sex relationships" are not addressed in the Bible, let alone condemned, he argued. Vines distinguishes between lustful, casual homosexual behavior and loving, "natural" same-sex relationships, arguing that it is only the former behavior that the Bible speaks against. The Wichita, Kan., resident has already changed some Christians' stance on homosexuality, including that of his devout Christian father, whom he came out to just a couple years ago. Vines has stated that he was raised in a loving, Christian home – never molested or abused – and a church community that holds the traditional view of homosexuality. He expressed optimism that the acceptance of gay Christians will soon prevail. Below is a transcript of the interview. CP: What were the scholarly works or people you talked to that led you to develop your view on Scripture and homosexuality? Vines: I became more interested in understanding the issue when I came to meet gay people for the first time in high school because when the issue is just an abstraction, then it is much easier not to talk about it very much. But when you have gay people in your life that you care about, it makes you want to consider things more deeply. So once then I decided to really study the scriptural issues in depth, what I did was, there are dozens of works of scholarship out there now on this subject from all perspectives, and so I started buying different books that seemed to be regularly referenced. The goal was to read books on both sides in order to try and understand those perspectives, to get one argument and then to see all counter-arguments to it back and forth. I now own several dozen books on the subject, I've read many more than that as well, basically just reading a lot of different works of scholarship on the subject, and trying to get as wide of a range of views as possible so that I could feel that my views were as well-informed as they can be. http://m.christianpost.com/news/matthew-vines-says-most-christians-are-wrong-homosexuality-is-not-a-sin--82026/ |

@CANTICLES, you are an apostate and an imposter pretending to be a jehovahs witness, you are not promoting the true teachings of your group. This is what the watchtower said: "Similarly,[size=26pt]unrepentant apostates go, at death, not to Sheol, or Hades, but to Gehenna[/size]. (Hebrews 6:4-8; 2 Peter 2:1) The same is true of dedicated Christians who persist in willful sin or those who "shrink back." They will, therefore, not be resurrected." Watchtower 1982 Apr 1 p.27 And yet you are teaching that hell does not exist and that humans cease to exist. stop mocking the truhhth |

plaetton: Many people die everyday as a result of building collapse be it a church, mosque, residential building or even a public facility. To attribute a building collapse to ones religious belief is the height of irrationality and stupidity. Your hatred for our faith is very worisome, are you sure its due to a dark phase of your religious history? Or is this a means of your letting go those painful experiences? Do let us know, we would be more than willing to help you. |

plaetton: Now that was an irrational and imbecilitic post, even a mad man knows that the religious centered horrors inflicted on mankind today is caused by atheists like yourself who claim to be the mouthpiece of their god/ God therefore using religious text to satisfy their greed, exploit others and pepertuate evil. Therefore, I am sure you have no problems agreeing with me that continual vigilance is imperative for the rational people to ensure. I still don't get why the "rational" people are obsessed with what they say does not exist? Is it possible that they are living in a state of denail? |
Religion / Re: In What Way Has This Religious Section Benefited You? by Yooguyz: 5:12pm On Oct 31, 2014 |
plaetton: Much better Its actually the atheists who engage us in an argument why because; 1. Nairaland has a religious section NOT an irreligious section. You knew that the section is for those who believe in a God, but yet you come here everyday to bugger us. 2. Atheists here have no system of thought, school of thoughts or a paradigm, their only function here is to attack religion. Sometimes I feel as if atheism was created to attack religion. So you so see, your statement should be reversed instead your question should be: Why do atheists engage members of other religions in an argument? |
Religion / Re: In What Way Has This Religious Section Benefited You? by Yooguyz: 8:48pm On Oct 30, 2014 |
plaetton: Coming from an atheist. Honestly I don't know why you guys put undue emphaasis on arguments. An argument can sound very logical, and yet it is a lie. Matters of our faith cannot be understood in the context of logic. Get that into your head, deep calleth deep, spiritual calleth spiritual. |

Image123: Exactely my thoughts, sometimes our popular magazines lie or distort the truth. I once read Bishop Oyedepo's saying that the dailies were lieing about him having 4 private jets, and that he had only 2. Look at the case of Oyakhilome his wife is divorcing him for inappropraite relationship, but the popular dailies in nigeria here said Adultery. Am doubting this Forbes magazine account, it sounds too good to be true, the exchange rate of dollar to naira is very high, and yet no american mega pastor is on the top list. Besides forbes magazine has a history for being negative towards the prosperity creed. |

Religion / Re: Million Dollar Financial Fraud Involving Watsonville Congregation Of JW by Yooguyz: 8:23pm On Sep 13, 2014 |
honeychild: Now to reply to your quote.....Anyway for the sake of people who may be reading this and may feel you are saying something, what that place means is that: Well said, point made. But my question now to you and your types is, WAS IT THE HOLYSPIRIT THAT DIRECTED THE gb TO APPOINT A FRUADULENT ELDER? Jehovah's witnesses teach that the holyspirit direct its governing body in the selection of Elders. Evidence of my claim is shown in this watchtower quote: "Elders, for instance, are appointed by holy spirit. (Acts 20:28) But not all spirit-anointed ones serve as overseers in the congregation. What are we to conclude from this? Simply that God’s spirit operates in different ways on members of the congregation." Watchtower 2011 Dec 15 p.25 "First, holy spirit moved the Bible writers to record the qualifications for elders and ministerial servants. ... Second, those recommending and making such appointments specifically pray for Jehovah's spirit to direct them as they review whether a brother meets the Scriptural requirements to a reasonable degree. Third, the individual being recommended needs to display the fruitage of God's holy spirit in his own life. (Gal. 5:22, 23) So God's spirit is involved in all aspects of the appointment process." Watchtower 2014 Nov 15 p.28 Are you trying to say that the holyspirit knowing appointed a fraudulent elder? Or Is it possible that the governing body are not directed by the holyspirit? Am waiting for answers....... |

honeychild: The bolded is a big lie. For example JW's have a policy that allows known child molesters who are elders to serve for three years. Evidence of my claim is in this watchtower quote: The 1972 book Organization for Kingdom-Preaching and Disciple-Making stated: "If a person was serving as an elder or a ministerial servant when he committed a serious wrong,even though it was some years ago, he bears a degree of reprehensibility, for he continued to serve in that position though knowing that he had, for the time at least, disqualified himself, not being then free from accusation. (1 Tim. 3:2, 10; Titus 1:6,7) He should have informed the judicial committee that he did not adhere to the requirements and should have stepped down from his position. In view of his failure to do this at that time, he would now be removed from that position." The term some years ago was clarified shortly afterwards in the Kingdom Ministry 1972 p.8 as a time period of three years: "What was meant by some years ago on page 170, paragraph two, in the Organization book? This indicates more than a year or two. It may be noted that it did not say many years ago. So it is not the exact number of years, but more like two or three years. It was not intended to have a brother go back into the distant past to bring up wrongs of which he repented years ago and that have evidently been forgiven by Jehovah and are not practiced now." Bunch of self righteous hypocritical clowns!! |
