TyTos:Thanks for speaking your mind... We must strive to obey God in all things. Just imagine if Abraham had cherry picked what to obey and what to discard..... But he had STRONG FAITH ! He NEVER wavered! Hebrews11:17-19. Acts5:29 Jehovah is the Source of Life. His Promises are FAITHFUL. Matt10:37-39. Young Samuel and Timothy grew up serving Jehovah when they were very young. What's wrong with that ? Do you mean Abraham should have waited for Isaac's consent before he took Isaac to the spot in accordance with Yahweh's instructions? Or do you think Yahweh would condemn Abraham if per adventure, any harm befell Isaac on their way to Carry out God's instructions? Regardless of the Laws of Caesar, every parent is accountable to Jehovah for their children under their care. |

blowjohn:We speak different languages but don't do the ecstatic speaking that people of other religion do. Perhaps, it wasn't what was done by the first century Christians. That gift of the Holy Spirit was to preach God's Kingdom and people who heard it understood what was said. Is that its use today? |

[quote author=Sodiquinone post=90151409][color=#990000]Oh, Christ worshipers! We want an answer to our question from your wise. If the Lord was murdered by some people’s act…what sort of god is this? We wonder! Was He pleased by what they did to Him? If yes, blessed be they..they achieved the pleasure of His But if He was discontented….this means their power subjugated His!! Was the whole entity left without a Sustainer… so who answered the prayers? Were the heavens vacated…when He laid under the ground somewheres? Were all the worlds left without a God…to manage while His hands were nailed? Why did not the angles help Him when they heard him while he wailed? How could the rods stand to bear the True Lord when He was fastened How could the iron reach Him and His body pinioned? How could His enemies’ hands reach Him and slap His rear And was Christ revived by himself…or the Reviver was another god? What a sight it is!A grave that enclosed a god! What’s more weird is the belly that had Him in it! He stayed there for nine months in utter darkness…fed by blood! Then he got out of the womb as a small baby, weak and gaping to be breastfed! He ate and drank, and did what that naturally resulted in Is this a god??!! High Exalted be Allah above the lies of Christians All of them will be held accountable for their libels Oh cross worshipers…for what reason is it exalted and blamed who rejects it? Is it not the logic to break and burn it along with the one who innovated it? Since the Lord was crucified on it…and his hands were fastened to it? That is really a cursed cross to carry…so discard it Don’t kiss it! The Lord was abused on it…and you adore it? So you are one of His enemies!! If you extol it because it carried the Lord of the worlds why don’t you prostrate yourself and worship graves, since the grave contained your god in it? So, Christ worshiper, open your eyes, this is what the matter my dear, because he resurrected whatever they did to him was worthless, is just like allowing your child to think that he is hurting you but u know you weren't hurt, the angel didn't intervene because they know he will still overcome, he is God but your Muhammad died and was buried, he couldn't come back to life because he is in hell suffering for disrespecting Jesus Christ the God of humanity |

chatinent:X Argue with these: 1. Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!” John 20:28 - Did you see Jesus told Thomas he was wrong in calling him Lord and God? 2. “Very truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born, I am!” At this, they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds. John 8:58-59 -, I hope you know why they wanted to stone Jesus? Because they felt he blasphemed by indirectly equating himself to God by using the same name "I am" that God used to referred to himself while revealing himself to Moses in the wilderness for himself(Jesus). God told Moses I am that I am. Jesus in turn said before Abraham was, I am... A present tense. 3. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; Philippians 2:5-6 - Paul inferred that Jesus is equal to God You people have a fixed mindset, you are incapable at looking at the scripture from a broad and holistic mindset. You have a narrow and conditioned mindset and seek for passages in the scripture to justify what you have made up your mind to believe. You say hell cannot exist because God is not wicked forgetting that hell is not about fire but about pain of eternal separation from God. In order to set ground for that justification you first denied immortality of the soul. You said there is no distinction between body and soul. How do you reconcile that with a passage that says "You must Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength"? Three distinct elements of man - heart, soul and strength are mentioned in that passage. Or how do you reconcile that belief with the passage where Paul wrote "May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.1 Thessalonians 5:23 How can any sound mind who have read Bible through and through deny hell with fire and brimstone exist after so many references of Jesus to it. You guys disgust me with the heresies you spread around. |

Hmmmm so if for any reason you are asked not to take alcohol but you decide to put it into your body through intravenous procedure so it means you have not consumed it. Okay try take in a dozen bottles of dry gin through intravenous procedure to see if you can prove your point that taking in anything through intravenous procedure means not consuming it. dokie: |

chatinent: I have told you that you are not Christians and your arguments supported it. After Jesus resurrection, he told his disciples in Acts 1:8 to go out and witness to him. If you guys won't do that you cannot claim to be Christians. Your are meant to follow as Christians the footsteps of the apostles but you won't, you place yourself on the same pedastal with Christ claiming to be imitating him while stripping him of his God head. Your beliefs are more related to Judaism, the old religion of the Jews, just that in your confusion you muddled it up with Christ teaching. You are therefore neither practicing Judaism or Christianity. You are of a different bloc, probably confused and trying very hard to spread your confusion across the globe. I feel so sad that many of you and the ones you succeeded to confuse will die and one day wake up from your grave to discover heaven and hell with pains and torments truly exist.... I am not ready to argue further. |

mitchyy: Say what you know my friend, not what you don't. I thought you'd ask me to prove every single accusations I made here against the organisation. If you ask, I'll provide more than enough. But let me warn you, if you examine the evidence, you'll forever be freed from the constant guilt you feel as a witness. Talking about open mind, I wonder how Jws always encourage others to be open minded, when they themselves will not even peep through the curtains of thier Minds. You ask people to come to your kingdom halls, but will never set foot at the door of another church. You ask people to question thier own faith and doctrine, when you accept any thing thrown at you by the governing body without question, even when, according to them, it does not make sense to you; talk about double standard. If you're willing to be open minded, I dare you to visit the internet and read about the organisation. For a start, visit www.jwfacts.com. If you visit that site, I swear to God I'll follow to become one of Jw. If you refuse to check out that site and others that examines the believes and doctrines of the Jw, it will only mean that you're not confident of what you believe, and you're in darkness. Remember darkness fears light. Enough of following in the religion of your birth. Question it, and prove to yourself that this indeed is the Truth. If you can help people question thier beliefs, you shouldn't be afraid to do same yourself. But the Truth is, the governing body will tell you not to read from outside sources because they know you'll find out the Truth about thier so-called Truth. And you'd foolishly do as they tell you, because you think they speak for Jehovah. Yet Jeffery Jackson at the Australian Royal commission enquiry about Jehovah's witnesses handling of Child abuse cases denied under oath that they are the only true source through which God speaks. Yet they tell thier gullible followers that they are the only source, and they foolishly accept without question. Check it out, it's on the internet. Australian Royal commission enquiry about the Jws handling of Child abuse cases. It's a video, not here Say. No honest individual has remained in the autocratic organisation after watching that video. I dare you to examine your organisation. I'll provide with any support you might require. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father, except through me. It didn't say through the governing body or a faithful and discreet slave. Read your Bible again. Read Mathew 25 to 27 and you would see that the faithful and discreet slave Jesus talked about means completely different things from what the governing body is teaching Jws. Read that scripture on your own without the watchtower magazine. You can try reading that account from various translations. May God punish me if I'm trying to lead you astray and not to open your eyes to the strangle hold of the governing body. I'm available anytime to discuss and prove any thing I put out here. But I expect you'll panic and run like most Jws do when confronted with facts about thier religion. Free yourself from cognitive dissonance. You're a member of a religious cult 2 Likes |

tete7000:No, you should have continued arguing further, I have read your previous posts including this one. Filled with confusion and lack of understanding. I can easily identify you as the usual church goer who thinks he knows the scriptures because he quoted some. You don't even know who the Witnesses are and why they are called christians yet you are waiting to start arguments with them on Nairaland. The issue of the Trinity and the others you raised have been discussed on this forum countless times. If you need a fruitful discussion, engage Jehovah's Witnesses offline. |
