Sexy20:I know them so well, hence when people talk about how good they are, I'll just smile and ignore cos they know nothing about them. I've been reading awake magazines since 1996 or so. Check this out, awake is supposed to inform u about current affairs and happening in the world, but when reading an awake magazine, notice that at the end of the messages, they'll bring in their belief and they'll be telling u how wrong the world is from their view and how Satan is ruling the world, it's pathetic. Around 2008/2009 while doing my internship in a bank, they was this senior staff I was closed to, so on my way to work that morning, someone in the street gave me some church flyers, I collected, on arriving at d office, I distributed the flyers, when I got to this senior colleague, he shouted at me and rebuked me for trying to give him such flyer, I was so embarrassed. But the following Sunday, I saw him in my street going from house to house preaching, I laughed off. 1 Like 1 Share |

DavidEsq: God is a mystery, no !an can fully understand him........but I know there is God the Father , God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. The bible made me understand that....I also know there is one God not three....to man three cannot be equal to one...well for God everything is possible, nothing is impossible... The Bible has only given us a hint Let us make man Baptise in the na!e of the Father, Son and Holy spirit Thomas:My Lord and my God Elisabeth...why does the mother of My God come to me.... |

DavidEsq: Not to take verse 44, out of context, the whole chapter reveals the vision of the "God of heaven" to Daniel. The different kingdoms and empires that has and will ever exist. We have had the Babylon(the head), the Medo-Persian( Breast and arm), the Greek empire (belly and tighs) and the latest..Roman empire..you know a lot has proceeded out of Roman..present day Britain and so many. In short, it's all pointing to the kingdom of this Earth "biblically" then to verse 44 and 45, talking about the destruction/end of these kingdoms...i.e.how a "stone" destroyed the kinddoms..it came "OUT of THE MOUNTAIN WITHOUT HANDS"...this means it will never be the work of men. This kingdom is a spiritual kingdom set up by the saviour. The process has started. As God is moving, Satan is roaring as well. It is a spiritual kingdom made by God, it will stand and as Jesus said, the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Luckily God revealed similar things to saint John which ends the canonized books. Remember, I earlier mentioned that as my hope and that should be the hope of those who believe in the WORD of God as revealed thru Jesus. |

Malolu:According to the vision, the stone that smashed the image filled the earth. The same earth wr the kingdoms are. The stone smashed t feet of the image. Considering t nature of the feet and ur explanation of Anglo -America, don't u think the type of Kingdom described by Daniel is democracy? The iron mixes with the clay, but the iron is not as strong as iron shld be. The government is derived from the people, which is the mixing of the iron with the clay. |

saintmark88: Lying machine, u said it here "In terms of authority God the Father is greater than the son and the son is greater than the Holy spirit. ...but by nature they r all God...." http://googleweblight.com/i?u=https://www.nairaland.com/3793815/how-one-witness-jehovahs-witness/14%2358315656&hl=en-NG&tg=211&tk=GJs2mSy1rgVSPCzs#a.58315656 Oya deny now ... are u now ready to prove it ? *** I need reference for the First statement u made too, waiting!!! |
Re: Five Things You Never Knew About Jehovah's Witnesses. by Nobody: 6:40pm On Oct 29, 2017 |
DavidEsq: Oh DavidEsq, I get your point. The vision has nothing to do with democracy. Note the places I capitalized.. Actually the stone has been the revealed to be the Church..that is the body of Christ. The same body that will be occupying the new heaven and Earth(the new realm) where that "tree of life can now be found again after it had been hidden from fallen man in Eden. |

DavidEsq:lolzzzzzz I assumed you had a good sense of humour. Anyway, I read both very well. Just that I kept one looking for where it kicked against blood transfusion. Unless of course, you wanna tell me that's what the eating of blood means? Innit? |

Re: Five Things You Never Knew About Jehovah's Witnesses. by Nobody: 7:24pm On Oct 29, 2017 |
emsheddy: I believe the guy is a JW and true Christians need to respect people and the way they believe the word of God. Ofcourse there's a need for edification and correction in the body of Christ. the truth is any one believes it is a sin for him or her to undergo blood transfusion then so be it for him. But SIN means Satanic In Nature and it's what God abhores. The question is, is it really a sin? Does God refer to anything like blood transfusion. The answer is NO. Remember Jesus said let your yes be yes and no be NO, anything other than this is evil. The first area place God mentioned his disdain for blood-taking was Genesis 9:4....blood there of you SHALL NOT EAT. Leviticus 3:17, Leviticus 17:14 and 19:26 all point to the same. God in His infinite power made known afterwards from Lev 19:26 thru Deuteronomy 12:23 then Acts 15:20 that HE abhors defilement and idolatry when He started making Reference to those things with blood. GOD DID NOT SAY we should not help people's life medically or even lay down..(John 15:13 as Jesus did! after all He's the reason we are called Christians). 1 Like |

In Deuteronomy 4:2, it says you should not add or subtract from the bible so why does the New World Translation (Jehovah's witnesses bible) have verses removed? Their bible is online so you can check it out Matthew 17:21 Matthew 18:11 John 7:53 - John 8:11 (a whole 12 verses missing) Romans 16:24 There are like 26 more different verses they've removed from their bible just because it doesn't suit their teachings. 1 Like |

Well, if I were you I would spend more time on those rhapsody/adventist magazines given to you than trolling Jehovah's witnesses. It is not by force to take our magazines or to like us. I do not know how much you have to talk about buying our magazines as if you have made a life for yourself already. You have a good job and I hope you keep it up. MOSICATED5: |

The blood transfusion is the one that vexes me the most, my sister is a biomedical scientist in a govt hospital and she has stories about people dying because they don't want to accept blood. She said a few JW's take the blood transfusion but keep quiet about it. Now this is the part I don't understand. They said you can;t take blood transfusion but you can take fractions of blood. So you can take what makes up blood but not the blood itself? How does that even make sense? I cannot drink hot chocolate but I can take milk, milo and sugar? Please people read your bible and pray for understanding instead of following man-made rules. |
