MaxInDHouse:Jesus collected offering. As a matter of fact, He even monitored the offering. That was how He knew what the poor old widow put as offering. He didn't condemn the giving of offering. 1 Like |

Stayingalive: True Christianity is about how God is using His Holy Spirit to gather imperfect but faithful and obedient humans in all the nations {Isaiah 2:2; Micah 4:1} these people will start paying rapt attention to what the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob said as written in the Bible {Isaiah 2:3; Micah 4:2} and the expected result of this is they will use what they found in the pages of the Bible to settle their disparities peacefully among themselves, divert their resources into production of food and information materials, stop the production, buying, selling and using destructive devices, stop enrolling in the army and vow never to raise weapons against anyone again! Isaiah 2:4; Micah 4:3 This is the greatest miracle that will destroy all the machinations of Satan {1John 3:8} whose intention is to see the entire human race wiped out {John 10:10} but who will establish such a program among imperfect humans? That's why a perfect child needs to be born among mankind {Isaiah 9:6} this child will grow into an adult as a perfect man he will then lead imperfect humans in the way of holiness {Isaiah 35:8} the establishment of Christianity was to achieve this goal that's why Jesus is called the Prince of Peace {Isaiah 9:6} as he will counsel obedient mankind to form one big and happy family of peace loving worshipers! Zephaniah 3:9 Of course there are thousands of groups claiming Christians today but out of them all only Jehovah's Witnesses are fulfilling this prophecy with their activities globally proving that the Prince of Peace has come and they are witnesses to the fact that his teachings can unite people of all nations in love! Act 1:8 Please if you have a better explanation about what true Christianity should do among mankind don't hesitate to air your views. Thanks and God bless you!

Truvelisback:Please can you quote the verse where Jesus collected offering? What i knew is that he sat at a distance with his disciples (friends) as they were watching people dropping money into the Temple's Treasury! Mark 12:41 |
Re: 7 Reasons Why I Respect The Jehovah’s Witnesses by MaxInDHouse(m): 6:20am On May 27 |
Truvelisback:If you call a place of worship "CHURCH" it's wrong from Bible's viewpoint because the word "Church" means the congregation not a building! |

MaxInDHouse: I am debating JWs teaching on the divinity of Christ and the debate is solely on scripture. The only reason you are looking for my denomination is so you can tap dance and derail the discussion when you have no answers to my questions and facts..... So if you are ready let's begin by you answering the question I asked you. Remember I told you we are using your own Bible the new world translation 2 Likes |

ReacherSaidNoth:Rather than brand them as a cult for prescribing punishment to unrepentant sinners, you should rather consider it a strength. The orukuruku in most of the christian denomination today is due to the lip service paid to holiness. It has always been a case of perpetually protecting the wealthy ones at the expense of the poor. So forget that archaic idea. |

freshboi88: You see what i mean! ![]() That's why you must mention the name of your own church because all churches don't teach the same thing that's what led to so much contradictions. ![]() |

Truvelisback:So what do you think people in the 21st century should call a place where people meet for special events? |
Re: 7 Reasons Why I Respect The Jehovah’s Witnesses by MaxInDHouse(m): 6:35am On May 27 |
Truvelisback:The collection was ongoing in the temple where worshipers practiced JUDAISM he is still having serious issues with what he has said about the way that religion was conducted so he has no say on the way Jews practice their religion back then. In fact that's what led to his being accused, arrest and death! |

MaxInDHouse: This thread is a JW thread and that's why I am here. You are not even proud of your teachings hence looking for my denomination so you can derail the debate. I didn't say I want to debate you on which denomination is better. If that is the case then you will need my denomination. I am debating you on what you teach as a JW. It is left for you to defend it but I am not surprised by this your tactics, you want to run and hide. 2 Likes |

MaxInDHouse: Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Father. The one through whom the Father created all things. I mean Nothing that was made by the Father that was not created through Jesus. John 1:3 . Attached is a screenshot of the scripture using the New world translation. Do you agree with this ? 2 Likes

freshboi88: I can use any translation so i'm not obligated to use only one translation. YES Jesus is the FIRSTBORN of all CREATIONS and God used him to create all other things {Colossians 1:15-16} just as Adam is the FIRSTBORN of all human whom God used to populate the earth! Luke 3:38 |

ReacherSaidNoth:That also goes with ALL RELIGION. Do you want to pretend ignorance of what Muslims were asked and are doing to anyone who leave Islam, same with Hindus. There is no religion or sect that is happy with people leaving their fold. JW are not a cult as wrongly postulated. I am a pentecostal anyway. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Pickup8: They are fulfilling what Jesus said will be done to his REAL disciples: “A student is not above his teacher, nor a slave above his master. It is enough for the student to become as his teacher, and the slave as his master. If people have called the master of the house Be·elʹze·bub, how much more those of his household? Matthew 10:24-25 So when we hear religionists of different sects saying this about us we rejoice greatly because that's what Jesus said will be done to his REAL disciples!

MaxInDHouse: But your Greek interlinear does not have the word 'other' Greek interlinear is their Greek to English translation of the bible. Notice the word other is not there. It simply says all(things) - first picture. Words are circled in red. But in your NWT bible, the word other suddenly appears, where did it come from mate. - second picture, insertions are circled in a yellow-like color Do you agree that you have inserted the word 'other' 4 times in col 1 16-20 in your NWT bible ? Even when it is not there in the original Greek language according to your own translation...do you agree ? 4 Likes

Now, after claiming that "the name Christian is curses and bastardised and whoever thinks he belongs to Christ under the cursed and bastardised name(Christian) should think twice" he is shamelessly claiming to be part of the same CURSED AND BASTARDISED name again.

freshboi88: You're arguing with a shameless lying liar, who claimed that the "NAME CHRISTIAN is CURSED AND BASTARDISED and their gods have given them a NEW NAME therefore whoever think he BELONGS TO CHRIST under the CURSED AND BASTARDISED old group name (Christian) should think twice" Meanwhile, the shameless lying liar has been shouting that he is a Christian and Jws is part of the group name again.
