Achorise: I have become weak because of some trials I faced. But I know this is the Truth and I am determined to rebuild my First. I am determined to hold fast to the hope I had in the beginning down to the end. I see you are nostalgic. There is nothing like Jehovah's organisation. It is second to none. Jehovah wants you back (Luke 11:11-32) Visit jw.org. Watch videos and download songs. You can now attend meetings with only your smartphone or tablets. Almost everything is online. Brothers now use their phones in the field ministry by showing videos. They even transfer books etc. Pls update yourself. Come to the meeting. You will be welcome with open arms especially if brothers know you were once one of us. Come and taste life's waters free! |

But I never in this life will I be part of JW organization. I have found Something deeper and better, I'm more fulfilled now. I have a deeper experience with God , and my eternity can not be slaughtered on the alter of religion based on principle and ideology of men. I appreciate your concern for me. Have you ever experienced what you preached ? or independently go through some religious ideology and beliefs. I appreciate the witnesses alot, you guys are good people. but Christian is not about good people. may be one day I will know you one on one. |

saintmark88: I never supported the killing of anyone ooo. Thats your own rhematic escape plan to the message ....................................................................... receive them and receive the devil. Jesus dined with sinners inother to preach and save them. But what part are you and your pope playing in preaching to them? Rather u make them friends and they feel comfortable being a homo and bearing the name of christianity. You tell them about love and mercy but fail to tell them about God's judgement. Your a hypocrite. Moreover the bible mentioned "be you not unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what CONCORD has Christ with belial or light with darkness?" |

Pchidexy: you are definitely not a Christian or you will not abuse me ...in Christianity there is no denomination and our salvation is not based on being a Baptist , charismatic , Pentecostal or whatever man has created to suit their culture ..read your Bible and you will understand ..its simple and not complicated except to a Nigeria like you :-) |

mrZENographer: Do not consider yourself saved lest you fall. You should warn yourself. It is folly to be so prideful and sure of yourself. You might really need to remove the log from your eyes so that you can see clearly what a religious bigot you are. For real...what d hell do u mean by I'm saying what they want me to say? Like seriously...I'm saying what the bible said. Don't know any homos. ..don't really like what they do..For health and natural reasons...but I'm sure as hell not going to sit high and mighty in judgement of what I don't even understand. When reading your bible. ..read more on love...peace with all men...and joy beyond understanding. Leave the condemnation for those in charge of it hmm? Okay. I'm out. 1 Like 1 Share |

Our Lord Jesus Christ summed up the directives of living a christian life in two commandments (Note that these two commandments do not nullify the original ten God gave to Moses). Our Lord said, " Love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your strength." " Love your neighbour as you love yourself. " I ask you my fellow christians, - Will you discriminate yourself over your faults, or will you rather seek to repent and better yourself? - Will you ostracize yourself because you commit a sin which God hates most, or will you put effort in bringing yourself closer to Him? Was it not Jesus Christ who said, " Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you "? Have you ever offered up prayers to God for a homosexual? Have you ever asked for their forgiveness from God? Have you ever asked God to take control in their lives? Or do you just rebuke and curse them? When we pray for sinners, homosexuals are supposed to be part of those sinners we pray for. Was it not Jesus Christ who also said, " If you have wronged your brother, leave your offering at the altar and go and obtain his forgiveness first. Then come and give your offering ". Did he say that your brother must be more righteous than you? The Pope is saying that we, The Church, have been very unchristian towards homosexuals and that is why we owe them an apology. We accommodate the adulterous, the dishonest and even the violent. Yet we have not extended the same courtesy to the homosexuals. The Holy Father is asking us to desist from this attitude. With that same heart that we use to accommodate other sinners, let us make a space for them somewhere in there. To my protestant brethren, we all have sinned and fallen short of God's glory. We should be in unity, not in conflict. Do you think Catholics can't list fake pastors and prophets, e.t.c? We won't and we shouldn't. Remember that where there are 2 or 3 gathered in God's name, the devil is also in their midst seeking to cause confusion, to plant weeds among the crop. Yes, we have fallen priests. But are these priests not human? Should they not be given the chance to rise again? Did Peter not deny Jesus 3 times? Yes, Pope Francis speaks for The Church whether you like it or not. For The Church is One, Catholic and Apostolic. God is Love. Let us show love to our fellow man. Let us sow seeds of love instead of seeds of hate. May God continue to protect and guide his people. #Proud2beCatholic |

coolviv: OK, OK then, turn a blind eye and let your children play with fire till it burns them to death. Since you cannot tell the difference BTW rebuking them and condemning them. |
Re: "Christians Should Apologise To Gays" - Pope Francis by mrZENographer: 5:17pm On Jul 13, 2016 |
Coolviv kaycee7 Felincous: Wow yes Jesus did not condemn but he said in Matthew 23 'woe to you pharisees because if the gospel had been preached to the people of Sodom, they would have long repented'. Come to think of it? Why don't you gay advocates/defenders use any other words apart from "condemning"? Like rebuke, CORRECT, chastise, WARN, instruct? Oh I know why. It's because you people are big hypocrites. HY-PO-CRITES. Keep going to church and still believe ur a Christian. I don't blame u, I blame ur teacher who wouldn't teach undiluted word of God. |
Re: "Christians Should Apologise To Gays" - Pope Francis by mrZENographer: 5:52pm On Jul 13, 2016 |
Kaycee7: Pls do me a favor. Check if this is in your bible. ROMANS 10:14 "How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?". And this JAMES 5:20 "Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins." And just one more pls! james 2:20 "But will you know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?" Praying(faith) for sinners repentance without preaching(works) to those you could reach out to is dead works. Also correction pls, The Pope speaks for the Catholic Church and gays ...... not for all Christians. |

mrZENographer:Please do me a favour. Find the Pope's speech on the internet and read. Then, tell me if he said we should not preach to them. Tell me, which preacher will draw more souls to God? The one who treats you like a human being while preaching? Or the one who treats you like a condemned criminal while preaching? The Pope never said and is not implying that we should not preach to them and neither am I. The Pope is simply telling us to treat them as fellow human beings and if we have in any way meted out inhuman treatment to them, then we need to apologise. mrZENographer:I don't understand your question ie the bolded. Could you re-phrase? And I'm not a gay activist/defender. Just trying to help people understand the Pope's message. |

Kaycee7: The bible is never favourable for people who don't want to repent and still turn a blind eye to God's warning. Telling them about God's love and acceptance irrespective of who or what they are is a great trick that only itching ears will endeavour to accept. |

Show me a place on internet where the pope rebukes the sin of homosexuality? Instead hes always on transit waving hands to them, every while they feign before him.
