So you truly love yet you never cared to chat heartily with JWs before you began posting this on social media regarding a group:



Well my message to you is that you can never find a single group out there that's performing as Christians like JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES.
So i'll advise you to humble yourself and come for a Bible study.
You once said our people are not allowed to think independently, the result of your independent thinking is becoming obvious to everyone now {Matthew 7:16-18} just imagine a person claiming CHRISTIAN asking on a public forum:

Is God Good? embarassed

When you're supposed to be out there SANCTIFYING God's name {John 17:6, 26} everywhere you go! Matthew 6:9

You've made your choice to oppose God's people so there's no surprise that you're here asking rhetorical questions to prove you don't understand the God of the Bible.
But We are His WITNESSES anyday, anytime, anywhere and before anybody we have the proof to convince anyone by saying to them:

Taste and see that Jehovah is good ; Happy is the man who takes refuge in him! Psalms 34:8

We have shown you love by coming to your homes giving you the opportunity to study God's word with us but since you choose to label us as "EVIL" we are not surprised! Matthew 10:25 smiley




Everything i posted about you people is true and i never did it with any evil intentions. And don't be deceived. There are many true Christians who don't bear the tag of Jehovah's witness. There's nothing special about you guys. You guys just have some weird perverted beliefs that's all.

So why would such an all good being kill babies? Is killing babies good?

This keeps propping up from unbelievers. If you argue that it ever happened that God killed babies, what stops you from going all the way to the destination of the babies after death?

Even if there isn't any atheist section here it isn't nice the way you guys are always trying to make us look stupid because of what we believe in.

The intent is not to make you look stupid but to point out what we see as faulty reasoning. The faulty reasoning is not you guys fault, its baked into the religion and hard to escape.


Anyways, you need to understand that God is a judge who won't just simply wink at evil but must judge evil and we humans are the evil ones. And you need to view all His actions towards sinful men with that as your foundation.

Why did God kill king David's baby? Simple. What were the actions that led to the birth of the baby? David slept with another man's wife and killed the man. That is a sufficient answer.

What was the baby's crime? Being born? Did it ask to be born? How is it justice to kill the child and leave the people who committed the infraction with no punishment?

Besides David's love child is not the only baby your god purportedly killed. An untold number were killed, how is this good? By what reasonable standard of judgement would you call mass killing children good?

You have too many questions.

When you say God killed a bunch of children you say it in a way that seems to equate God's killing of children with the unjust killings happening today and the other killings of babies that pharaoh and herod carried out.

But that is not so. If you look at the scriptures closely you'll see that anytime that God did something "evil" He wasn't acting sporadically: the people on whom He carried out judgement did something to attract such a treatment from God. It is always the people's fault and not God's.

If God were to be acting the way you want Him to (carrying out instant judgement on perpetrators of evil and not just sitting and doing nothing) you would be dead and in hell by now because you also are among the perpetrators of the same evil you condemn.

You have murdered. The Bible equates hatred with murder, so if you've ever hated anybody (which i guess you have) then you are guilty of murder.

Breaking one of God's laws is equal to breaking them all. Say for instance you haven't worshiped idols or stolen or fornicated but you have lied. By lying you have become guilty of worshiping idols, stealing, fornicating among other transgressions.

But you see God is just and would never do anything unjust. There is a time that God gives for repentance and God is VERY patient so you can guess how long that time is.

God is still waiting for the message to reach them and will continue to wait in that hope. The fault with the slow spread of the message is not God's fault but that of the people to whom He has entrusted the message.

What did babies do that made god so angry they had to be killed? What good reason is there to wholesale slaughter babies?

Then himself doesn't even adhere to this ridiculous standard because he does the very same things you say requires you to be killed for. The god hates, the god is jealous, the god is wrathful, the god watches porn, the god deceives. So by this standard your god deserves to be killed. But of course he won’t kill himself so instead excuses will be made. How is any of that just or justice?

Who is responsible for the slow spread if not the god who instead of utilising any of the vaunted power at his disposal to spread his message decides instead that he will wait for hundreds of years while men develop better tools for information dissemination. And not only that he did not write anything himself, did not preserve any of the original manuscripts. None of the languages any of the originals were written in are widely spoken or written today, necessitating flawed translations of imperfect copies of imperfect copies. How does any of this show a god that seriously wants a message broadcast?

If someone claims god told them to kill their own children and they did kill the children you suggest they did the right thing since the children are in heaven. May be we take it further and have all parents kill all their children since they go to heaven.

On the other hand, the fruitage of the spirit is love, joy, peace, PATIENCE, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, SELF-CONTROL. Against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23

From all that you have written here i believe it is safe to say that it's not that you don't believe in God, because you actually do and just dislike Him.

God hates evil (any sane person would), God is jealous FOR people not OF people (there's a difference), when you say God watches porn you say it like the same way you would say a human watches porn but that's not true. The Bible says the God's eyes go to and fro around the earth keeping watch on the evil and on the good. When God looks at people acting porn He doesn't do so with lust (God is all Good and lust is evil so He can't lust), God has never deceived anybody, you must have Him mistaken for the devil: he is the real deceiver.

You said He didn't write anything Himself and that's not true. All Scripture is God-breathed.

Who do you think is behind scientific breakthroughs? Lol. Do you seriously think that God doesn't have a hand in all the great scientific breakthroughs the world has made? Who gave us brains? Who determined our brain's abilities and limits?

The Bible is not flawed, it is infallible.

Bro i think you are just angry at God because you have some wrong ideas about Him. You don't believe that He is Good but indeed He is.

No we are answering the question is killing children enmass good. If according to you they go to heaven when they die then the conclusion is yes it is good to kill children enmass. If you have a different conclusion let me hear it.
