The JW is a cult. They give the outward appearance of civility but the members are in a cage they can't escape from because of the threats of punishment they have been convinced are terrible.

Nah so one Jehovah Witnesses neighbor carry my contribution run for December 2018, she made me lost respect for them

SeriouslySense:
Yes, i do like that character they show, when they are preaching, although i don't know if they are pretending, never gone to their hall.

I have debated them that Jesus is God, they are quite stubborn , anyway i like their calm way of talking but not their doctrine.

Courz:


At the bolded, that will never happen with Jehovah's Witnesses as long as they have a Bible that is distorted. Every single doctrine that you don't agree with them is based on the Bible verses in the below thread.

TemmyT002:
I agree with all
I respect those people.
The Bible I currently use was given free of charge to me.
Many people were complaining about the Bible but I didn't care. They didn't bother to volunteer to buy one for me anyway.
The only reason why I didn't join them is because they don't beat drums or dance in their congregation.
I am a Yoruba man. I love dancing to God.
90% of the acts should be studied and followed by other Christians.

If this is your definition of a cult then the whole of Christianity, and even mankind is in a cult. Every rule/law in Christianity and in life is based on one threat of punishment or the other if you don't follow it.

The whole concept of Christianity is based on the threat that if you don't follow Christ, you'll be thrown into hell where you will burn for ever. What threat of punishment is greater than that?

Even at work, if you come late or refuse to come to work for one day what happens? Either your salary is deducted, or you're suspended without pay, or even sacked.

As a self employed business person if you don't pay your taxes you will be faced with severe punishment from the government. Irrespective of wether that particular tax is justified or not. Is that freedom?

You are not really as free as you think. We are all in a cage even though we sometimes own the cage.

That itself is beyond the red flag. to distort the bible.

Better is the day of death than day of birth means Jehovah's Witnesses should not give birth and makes procreation a bad thing to celebrate.

Right?

Jesus and allah could not make Nigeria ,the most god fearing country a better place .

How sad .

before u mention politicians , why cannot the all powered God not able to control them .

immortalcrown:
I understand you. I just mentioned another denomination with similar qualities. The denomination even pays house rents, school fees and medical bills for poor members. Yet, they don't collect offerings. The denomination sends people on mission works to countries. I know a Nigerian that the denomination sent to England. I met some Ghanians that the denomination sent to Nigeria some time ago.

NOTE:
All I say here is for knowledge sake, not to demarket or market any denomination.

If threatening people with eternal torture is not coercion then football is not a sport.

Also baptism is a sort of initiation, and you are not exactly free to leave as in some cases you lose your friends and family in the process as they now see you as an outcast.

Courz:


Shut up your mouth! You don't know anything. How will you know that your Watchtower Is a full blown Business when they have washed that your Brain? How can you keep paying Loan for a hall that is supposed to be owned by you yet, Watchtower really owns the Kingdom hall? How can a congregation that built their own hall without the help of Watchtower, keep paying money per publisher to them? Wetin concern them with the loan? Mumu. Be there and allow a group of Freemason Fraudsters to Deceive you and milk you. Do you know what happened to a A congregation in the US that refused to send their own Tithes to the Headquarters? Watchtower dissolved that congregation. Yes. Because they said the Elders were stubborn and refused to send them the money. Those Elders were very smart because they saw the Fraud! Your Watchtower and every other religion out there that focuses on Tithes Are the same. Google the networth of Watchtower Bible and Tract Society. Billionaires! And what are you? Are you a billionaire? That's to show your foolishness as a JW. Your Watchtower Is nothing but a Business!

Na you suppose listen and learn. He has shown you reference materials. Carry your own come. A Jehovah's Witness who left in at age 24 right?

We know the position you get at that kind of age.

Skydivine:
There are some of their teachings that are very dogmatic.
Their stance on blood transfusion
Their teaching about paradise on earth
Their interpretation of the Adamic nature of sin
The meaning and interpretation of hedge and hell

Dcaliphate:
They're quite fervent in all they do and they make very loyal friends

Truvelisback:
In the Old Testament, it was farm produce based on their produce or harvests but in the NewTestament it is a bit different because your farm produce won't pay your church rent, and other needs in the church. Have you asked yourself this? If tithe and offering aren't important, why do JW leaders take voluntary donations from their members? Why not JW leaders provide the needs in the church with their hard earn money without asking a fathing from their members as donation?

donmik:
Well said and quite enlightening.

1. But I want to ask: must churches send members or evangelists to a far country when there are enough unbelievers in our communities?

2. I ask this cos members struggle to raise money always to send out ministers when the locales and members within are starving.

You can chat me up on michaelogizi@gmail.com if you don't mind. Thanks

A cult that is going down gradually. Do you know that as a parent you are not permitted to talk to your child that has left the religion. They just lifted the ban on men keeping beards. Do you know that the religion teaches that Christ did not die for the Sins of all mankind but he died for just 144,000 persons known as the anointed ones. They once taught that the people that lived around 1914 will not all die before Christ returns, they have replaced this teaching with a more ridiculous teaching known as overlapping generations. The teaching of overlapping generations is so ridiculous even a genius will find it difficult to understand. I have given you just a few of their teachings which will not be made known to you until you join. When you join and later find out the stupidity of this religion and decide to leave they will tell their members and others who care to listen to rubbish that you are mentally diseased. Spreading negativity against former members (who they fondly refer to as apostates) is known as Spiritual Warfare. It is best not to even join because the spiritual warfare against you when you decide to leave could be devastating.
