FxMasterz: You don't have to be biased on this try to calm down and think why Jesus said: “Do not think I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I came, not to destroy, but to fulfill" Matthew 5:17 There are things the Jews believe that Jesus is against. For instance all the prophets support fighting and killing their enemies {Deuteronomy 7:16; 1Samuel 15:3} but Jesus said they should love and pray for their own enemies! Luke 6:27-28 Adulterers should be stoned to death {Deuteronomy 22:23-24} but Jesus said only the sinless should stone sinners. Israelites should get married and bear children but Jesus said whoever chooses to remain single should be allowed! Matthew 19:12 The prophets including John the baptist taught the Jews weekly ritual fasting but Jesus' disciples don't practice such! God's word forbids eating blood {Genesis 9:4; Leviticus 17:14} but Jesus told his own disciples that they must drink his blood! John 6: So don't try to argue what is plain you can only start defending what Jesus said and did but as for Jews who don't believe in him to them he was CONTRADICTING THE PROPHETS AND THE LAW! |
Re: JW 008 by FxMasterz: 10:22am On Jul 03, 2024 |
MaxInDHouse: Those are not the things they believed about Jesus. Jesus was saying that only to put His messages in right perspective. Quote where anybody said He came to destroy the law. Mind you, destroying the law is different from contradicting the law. Show us where anyone said He contradicted the law. Contradiction is what you and your JW organization have been known for. 3 Likes |

MaxInDHouse: You didn't give me anything. You only quoted a scripture by Jesus Himself where He put His messages in right perspective before a presentation. No one accused Jesus of contradicting or destroying scriptures. Jesus came to fulfil the scriptures.

If the Jews believe that Jesus do contradict the scriptures, would they have given Him scripture to read in the first place? Well, keep giving him the Bible study, the reason he keeps coming back to discuss here despite all his claims is because he always grab one or two things from those he always accuses as enemies of God. 2 Likes |

continue Watchtower quotes prior to 1914 Russell taught that Jesus invisible presence began in 1874 and rulership in 1878. "Our Lord, the appointed King, is now present since October 1874, A.D., according to the testimony of the prophets, to those who have ears to hear it: and the formal inauguration of his kingly office dates from April 1878, A.D.:" Studies in Scriptures Series - The Day of Vengeance (1897) p.621 The heavenly kingdom was shown Scripturally to begin before the end of the Gentile Times. "But the kingdom of God is to be set up before the days of the Gentile end, for "in the days of theses kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom; and it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms" (Dan. 2:44)."" Three Worlds and the Harvest of This World (Barbour & Russell, 1877) p.27 As shown at Freemasonry & Adventist Links, Russell used pyramidology to support this belief. Prior to forming the Watchtower, Russell wrote that 1914 would see the end of all governments. “… the seven times will end in A.D. 1914; when Jerusalem shall be delivered forever, and the Jew say of the Deliverer, “Lo, this is our God, we have waited for Him and He will save us.” When Gentile Governments shall have been dashed to pieces; when God shall have poured out of his fury upon the nation, and they acknowledge him, King of Kings and Lord of Lords.” Bible Examiner C. T. Russell Oct 1876 Russell originally was a follower of the teachings of Barbour, and together they co-authored works such as the 1877 book Three Worlds, and the Harvest of This World. After splitting from Barbour in June 1879, Russell began publishing the magazine Zion's Watch Tower and Herald of Christ's Presence in July 1879. This became distinctly his own religion with the incorporation of the organization "Zion's Watch Tower Tract Society" shortly thereafter. Russell continued to publish many of the prophetic interpretations he had received from Barbour, as can be seen in what follows when comparing Three Worlds and Watchtower quotes. 1874 to 1914 were described as the greatest period of trouble in human history, the period of Armageddon itself, with the end of trouble to be in 1914. "Now, in view of recent labor troubles and threatened anarchy, our readers are writing to know if there may not be a mistake in the 1914 date. They do not see how present conditions can hold out so long under the strain. We see no reason for changing the figures - nor could we change them if we would. They are, we believe, God's dates, not ours. But bear in mind that the end of 1914 is not the date for the beginning, but for the end of the time of trouble." Zion's Watch Tower 1894 Jul 15 p.226 (reprints 1677) The following quotes during the lead up to 1914 show there could be no doubt as to what Watchtower followers expected. The end of the Last Days in 1914 was to initiate a number of endings and new beginnings. . 1914 - the end of the preaching work . 1914 - the end of all religion . 1914 - the wholesale destruction of all government . 1914 - the end of the Great Tribulation . 1914 - the end of Armageddon . 1914 - Russell and his followers to be raised to heaven . 1914 - Jesus' Kingdom established as paradise on earth . 1914 - commencement of the earthly resurrection to be continued 1 Like |

1914. These predictions have failed, and continue to fail, because the governing body of the Jehovah’s Witnesses is not God’s organization as they falsely claim to be, and they cannot interpret the Bible properly. The whole Jehovah’s Witness system has shown itself to be a lie. https://carm dot org/jehovahs-witnesses/the-watchtower-and-the-1914-generation/ ^^ replace dot with . no spaces 1 Like |

FxMasterz:According to Jesus of Nazareth his disciples will be accused of Satanic teachings just like he was also accused: “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 we (JWs) aren't surprised that you and your cohorts whose beliefs contradicts are saying the same thing to us! Matthew 5:11-12 FxMasterz:But they accused him of being Satanic not for miraculous works but his teachings shey? John 10:33 No wahala! FxMasterz:True Christians should have the same line of thought {John 17:22; 1Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:3} that's what will help them to have love among themselves {John 13:34-35} so if you people don't agree on teachings and doctrines then in what way are you followers of the man who said his disciples will stand out as a different group with unique teachings?

Re: JW 008 by MaxInDHouse(m): 2:50am On Jul 04, 2024 |
Since the year 1914 Jesus and his angels have been working round the clock to make sure that obedient mankind like SHEEP or FINE SEED are separated from rebellious humans like GOATS or WEEDS. So how can sincere individuals identify the gathering of the SHEEP in the situation where GOATS are everywhere? Of course meditating on how the illustration was used SHEEP are domestic animals that are obedient to their shepherd so observing them from a distance you will notice how orderly and well organized they are but as for GOATS each one has its own mindset and always ready to impose it on anyone around it though it doesn't have any group to which it submit to the same rules but it's always fighting over what should be done. This became obvious since the year 1914!

MaxInDHouse:Yes, we are so accused. Over the years, the Catholic Church has persecuted Christians who showed them the light. That doesn't mean that real satanic teachings don't exist. A teaching that contradicts scripture is satanic. An organization that brings a new gospel contrary to what we've received is satanic. A group that hold the words of men in higher esteem than the word of God is satanic. True Christians should have the same line of thought {John 17:22; 1Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:3} that's what will help them to have love among themselves {John 13:34-35} so if you people don't agree on teachings and doctrines then in what way are you followers of the man who said his disciples will stand out as a different group with unique teachings? John 17:14-16 That isn't the yardstick for measuring true Christians. Even cults have the same lines of thought. 1 Like |
