salvation101: but there are materials at my disposal written by people who do not even have affiliation with religion - Oh, so it is no more the apostate church or apostate pastors! it is now those without religious affiliations that shaped your beliefs. What a double standard from a resentful opposer! Also you say Wat there that is not on the internet?! Oh, what a generation of the ignorant. You think everything on the internet is genuine and final. You think that any registered charity with a domain name or presence on the internet is legit. sori. |

Riofidelio:my point is doing those things without a knowledge of Jesus will amount to nothing. There are Muslims that are even more legalistic than dat, in fact some can strap up suicide vest paying the ultimate sacrifice to their beliefs but it still wouldn't amount to anything. |

salvation101:You're trying to learn too many things simultaneously! But i'll separate them for you, Jews means the two tribes that are residing in Judea (Judah and Benjamin) with the priestly lineage (Levithes) This separation happened after Solomon's reign.1King 12:1-22 The remaining northern ten tribes were the ones later referred to as Samaritans. So they're all Abraham, Isaac and Jacob's descendants but God's pure worship remains only with the Jews residing in Jerusalem( John 4:22)until Jesus was falsely accused,charged,judged and executed in Jerusalem! Please Jesus and the Born Agains are never again coming to this earth! Because they have all left the body that belongs to earth, they have taken up spirit bodies belonging to heaven and their place will be with Jesus who is to stay with Jehovah FOREVER! Revelations 14:1-5 compare to Psalms 23:6 2 Likes |

salvation101:The problem here is that you refused to see matters from another point of view! If you're saying i'm not doing it for Jesus and i've been quoting Jesus all these while for everything i believe and practice, please how do you define a Christian? Your definition of Christianity defers from mine that's all! So what remains now is the "works that goes along with our Faith" James 2:20-26 |

Pentecostals who have no research capacity only believe in one part of the bible and throw out the other.... |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 7:09pm On May 19, 2018 |
Riofidelio:lol, nd u think i was ignorant of dat? I told u not all Israelites are jews. There is the northern Israel consisting 10 tribes and Southern Israel 2 tribes. The Bible say salvation is for the Jews, so if u go by dat logic u would be excluding 10 tribes of Israel . If u claim the promise to Abraham was to d jews, den u r excluding 10tribes of Israel from it... U saying am learning makes it look like am just knowing dis from u now |

enimooko:fallacy. Am sure you can't compete with me in church history, am sure i av more literature materials at my disposal and constant use than you. U just sit down and assume. All d materials at ur disposal are probably ur watchtower and awake magazines |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 7:19pm On May 19, 2018 |
enimooko:if wat i believe about history of the is also supported by history written by ppl who didn't av affiliation with religion (who could av manipulated it) then wat i believe is more reliable than urs dat stems from an imagination. Not everything on the internet is genuine but we know where to go when we need genuine scholarship materials. |

salvation101:How can a chief surgeon be competing with a houseman, how can a registered nurse be competing with a auxiliary, how senior lecturer be competing with a primary school class teacher, how can an aircraft engineer be competing with a rewire technician, why will a clergyman be competing with an evolutionary biologist and why would a true christian be competing with a false christian? A spiritual man must feed exclusively the Lord's Table. You cannot eat at the Lord's Table and at the table of demons, too. So why do you think it is bad to use watchtower and awake magazines. mtchewwww |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by enimooko: 9:14pm On May 19, 2018 |
salvation101:ppl who didn't av affiliation with religion can also be very biased and fraudulent, 'cause research is funded by interest groups and there are very few free money. The catholic church has a library that serves its purpose, the Jewish orthodox church has its own artifacts, the Medina is a place that has its own purpose. The JW are serving their purpose. Th JW has brought out the hypocrisy of the clergy with a book that broke the Guinness book of records commonly referred to as the blue bombshell when it was released. So every church hierarchy is angry the same way they were angry with Martin Luther, John Calvin, Jan Hues etc many churches will have done the same thing that JW are doing, but for the lure of Power, Prestige etc, the deeper life in Nigeria would have cut a difference but for the lure of Power, Prestige etc You have no clue about the deceit and demon-ism in religion. you are naive. Your imagination is tainted by Pentecostalism and needs adjustment |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 9:42pm On May 19, 2018 |
salvation101:Hmmmmmmmmm you're not ignorant! I never said Abraham's promise belongs to only Jews and if i said so it's a mistake but at the same time the promise of a Messiah is to be fulfilled through Judah (Jacob's fourth son) and Judah's descendants form the major part of Judea, moreover they were all together referred to as JUDAH! However if you truly want to become a Christian the first quality that attracts the GOD is HUMILITY or MEEKNESS. Thank you. |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 10:20pm On May 19, 2018 |
salvation101:CORRECT! So let's talk about Christlike attitude. Do you know that Jesus lived in heaven as a PERFECT Spirit being before coming to the Earth? Do you know that no matter how an imperfect person tries to put on the new personality(Christlike quality) there will still be flaws? Do you know that the ONLY quality that God promised will first permeates and unite true worshippers is been harmless? Well God ONLY said on HIS Holy mountain worshippers will not carry weapons nor learn war anymore! Isaiah 2:1-4 Micah 4:1-3 So true Christians will continue to have so many wrongdoings amongst them but (No weapon users)they're still fighting hard to put away the old personality! They will be preaching and teaching their neighbors the instructions from Christ throughout the Earth despite deplorable condition of morals in the society.Malachi 3:16-18 Matthew 24:14,28:19,20 Many people will be deceived because of pretext by "False religious groups" claiming Christians.They'll be trying to pose good qualities as they don't know what Christianity entails,they won't agree on what to do so each will start presenting themselves but whenever they face true Christians they will start quoting their man-made doctrines and at the same time kicking against the real command of Jesus Christ because they want to claim that nobody is perfect therefore Jesus' commands they'll stubbornly ignore! |

God's Prophets have given US clues to IDENTIFY the group of people practicing pure worship in this last days we only need to go and study what the prophets said before Jesus "Christ" commissioned "Christianity". There is no way wrongdoing can be totally eradicated since God's Kingdom has not come and Satan is still moving about because his target is to discourage people from practicing pure worship. So how can we identify pure worship today?Well Isaiah and Micah said those practicing it will be gathered from all the Earth,they'll be seen throughout the globe because "they're standing on the tallest mountainlike worship",they'll become a global family and NONE of them will carry weapons for any reason whatsoever! Isaiah 2:1-4,Micah 4:2-4 Moreover Malachi said they'll be known for always having time to go about discussing with their neighbors on what's required to please God and this would serve as a SIGN for those living during the last days. Malachi 3:16-18 Jesus commissioned a preaching and teaching program for His own followers and taught them NEVER to carry weapons! Matthew 10:3-26,26:52,28:19,20.Anyone reading Paul's letters and trying to justify the identity of true Christians is on the wrong side because Paul's letters were addressed to those ALREADY practicing pure worship and he was trying to warn them of what could jeopardize their chances of everlasting life.Galatians 5:19-23 I'll advise everyone to forget about Jehovah's witnesses for now and search for the group fulfilling all these signs! |

salvation101: ALL , I repeat ALL of these died. ALL clearly refer to all the men of faith mentioned. - Heb 11:13, unknown to you , You just contradict Romans 5:12 that said death spread to ALL MEN, Is it lying ? Simple IQ test, if you insist he didn't die despite Heb 11:13, Tell us where he was transferred to ? |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Jozzy4: 11:14am On May 20, 2018 |
salvation101: John 3:5 Jesus state the requirement Baptism is required for Salvation - Born again or not. " Corresponding to that, baptism now saves you-- " - 1Pet 3:21 That doesn't change the fact that it is he who endures to the end after their baptism that will be saved - Matt 24:13 |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Jozzy4: 11:39am On May 20, 2018 |
deebrain: Your reasoning lacks merit, Everybody will be equal to Christ and his Father as well ? God will forever have authority over Christ - 1 Cor 15:28 |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 4:23pm On May 20, 2018 |
enimooko:the books you read when u were in school were all written by ur society shay? U av skewed knowledge based on d bias as filtered nd doctored by ur organization and not original. If what you know cannot be verified by a second and third party except ur society, then it is obviously skewed |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 4:25pm On May 20, 2018 |
Jozzy4:It's like she has learnt a lot in this forum from Jehovah's witnesses, so it's left to her whether to join true Christians or to keep what she leant and use it to exalt herself in front of those who have refused to listen! |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 4:28pm On May 20, 2018 |
enimooko:the bible talks about those who have a form of godliness but deny d power thereof. How can i be in a powerless religion? D God of the bible i read is a powerful God, his prophets were powerful, Jesus Christ powerful and The apostles too. There were demonic powers in their day too but dey all bowed like Dagon to the power of God. I am Pentecostal and would not even trade it for orthodox talkleess of a religion that believes the power of God has expired |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 4:30pm On May 20, 2018 |
Riofidelio:i am a christian already. Thank you. |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 4:34pm On May 20, 2018 |
salvation101:Oh no please don't expect that to happen! No other country under the heavens agreed with pure worship practiced in Ancient Israel! No other religious group in all Israel agreed with Jesus and His followers in the first century! Satan is the ruler of the whole Earth so God's organized people are always ON THEIR OWN! 1John 5:19 |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 4:35pm On May 20, 2018 |
Riofidelio:being Christlike is not by works you do but an inward experience that eventually produces good works. Good works can be faked u can do all and still be cast away. Judas iscariot was with the other disciples all through the period of their discipleship under Christ and Jesus still referred to him as d son of perdition |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 4:40pm On May 20, 2018 |
Jozzy4:i will only say what the bible says and be silent on what the bible is silent about. The bible said God translated him.. The Bible said he didn't see death. That is enough to know. If you say he died, show us where he died and was buried. Same with Elijah too 1 Like |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 4:48pm On May 20, 2018 |
salvation101:No! Judas Iscariot has been stealing from the treasury all through(John 12:4-6) and the other Apostles knew all along but he was thinking he's going to get away with it until "Satan realized that he's the one who can be bought with money" because Satan always keep watching everyone to see their weaknesses. Luke 4:13 But Judas's failure didn't nullifies the arrangement Jesus set for His followers to preach and teach people! You can't disqualify Jesus' orders simply because one of His followers allowed Satan to use him. This is why i said Satan has formed so many religious groups in the name of Christianity, they'll stubbornly ignore Jesus' arrangement and form their own.And if anyone tries to remind them of Jesus' orders they'll justify their disobedience with the excuse that someone amongst those following Jesus' orders failed! |

salvation101: They only believe speculation because the old men in new York say they must believe what's not in the Bible (guess work) or else they will be considered apostate |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 5:13pm On May 20, 2018 |
salvation101:That's good! So when someone who can provide scriptural references to prove a point says something, you need not argue since "you don't know the answer!" Well i've told you that these are the things Jesus promised US that the Holy Spirit will teach US, of course it can be proven with scriptural references but unbelievers will continue to say "the prophets(Hebrew~Aramaic scriptures) never said Elijah will come back and be named John the Baptist" even after giving all scriptural points to back up what Jesus said. Enoch Moses and Elijah are in (Hell or Sheol or Hades or Grave) They're Adam's descendants, they're all sinners and so they must die! Romans 3:23,6:23 Hebrews 11:13 Please show any right thinking person all these Bible quotations and ask him/her where could they be now? |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Jozzy4: 5:30pm On May 20, 2018 |
salvation101: Your silence is a blow to the heaven and hell doctrine. heaven or hell .. Where did he go ? You can't go further, because You know you are deceiving yourself, Did Bible tell you anyone of Abraham or Noah go to heaven when they die,Yet you people would boast that they are in heaven , You didn't decide to be silent then. Fact : Enoch died - Heb 11:13 |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 5:58pm On May 20, 2018 |
Jozzy4:ok, tell me about Cornelius family |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 6:06pm On May 20, 2018 |
Jozzy4:the blow is on you ooo. Show me where it was said that Enoch died. The bible said God transferred him so he shouldn't see death and you say he died. Is dat a lie? |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 6:17pm On May 20, 2018 |
Riofidelio:Jesus refers to Judas as the son of perdition in his prayer to the father. He said "all you those you gave me, i have kept and non is lost except the son of perdition".. All the privileges all the others had, Judas also had. He also went out amd even cast out devils wen Jesus sent dem out. He was born again |
Re: Who Are Jehovah’s Witnesses? by Nobody: 6:21pm On May 20, 2018 |
Hairyrapunzel:its indeed alarming. Dat was how one speculated to d extent dat he said Jesus was Angel Michael |
