alBHAGDADI:I'm not questioning God, I'm questioning you for misinterpreting the Bible. When the Bible make use of the word "MEN" it's not talking about GENDER, it's referring to human. Jesus feed 5000 men, doesn't mean they were all men. There were female and children there. 3 Likes |

Offpoint: Everything about that passage points to the fact that it is talking about males. The passage says the 144,000 are those who didn't defile themselves with women. Revelations 14:4 4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. |

Amakavula: You a correct they av predicted the earth would end like 5 different times. they claimed a certain pope Pius was the anti Christ, the Pope died more then 60 years ago, no anti Christ moves. They claimed armeggedon would occur immediately after first world war, no show. They postponed armeggedon to after WW2, instead in a direct opposite, the state of Israel was created. yet people still follow their teachings blindly. |

Janosky: The fact that the Bible didn't say "those who didn't defile themselves with men" is enough to show that the passage doesn't include women. Or is it only through sex with a fellow woman that a woman can lose her virginity? ![]() Can you see that you are the senseless one? |

These are deluded people, they are so righteous that they can condemn Paul, Peter and other Apostles. Many of them are mentally lazy that cannot read books written by the same organisation 70 - 80 years ago and see many of false teachings they have subtly abandoned. The other day one enthusiast was discussing with me and we got to a point where he would not admit the organisation was wrong, he brought out their hymn book and read to me the title: ' The Light is Getting Clearer' I responded, ' The Light has never been dim but you organisation gave it, it's own colouration. |

The error with this guys is their tendency to take the book of Revelations literal... If only you understand that the book is written in prophetic language. Now, prophets do not use plain speech. They speak in symbols... That's why you find stuffs such as candle sticks, lamb, lions, etc... To this end, the book of Revelations is only best interpreted in the light of the plain teachings of the epistles (Romans - Jude)... The same way the early church grew by the teachings of the Apostles, their interpretation of the old testament prophets (Acts 2:42), that is the same way the book of Revelations is to be interpreted. |

damosky12:Good observation, but I think they have a mindset and seek to interpret along that line. |

[color=#990000][/color] PARACLETOS: Please leave the JWs alone if you are not sure of what to say. I remember back then before the year 2000 some jw who came to preach in my area where being mocked for not believing the world would end by 2000. Even, I remember mocking some of my jw class mates back then. I don't know about the other years you mentioned, but 2000 am very sure it was not from them. And before I forget.... Those people are very unique and unlike us. They never mocked any of us when the world did not end in 2000 (as we believed). Just as they have not come here to attack or insult us for preaching and condemning them for their believes. So let's leave them alone and learn from them... All JWs I respect you all!!! 7 Likes 3 Shares |

ifyblinksss: This kind of people shouldn't be dignified with response. He obviously won't humble himself to get schooled. You have given him valid reasons why he shouldn't interprete the book of revelation literally. But would he reason or would he still claim more catholic than the Pope? No body knows all, but studying and understanding the Bible is a task that people should take seriously. Not just getting the elementary knowledge, and boom, start criticizing others. Jehovah's Witnesses never said the 144000 are all their modern day members. I have been a member for well over 25years, and I never heard such from the organization. He can as well say he is among the class of 14400, no body will drag that with him. But the truth remain that Jehovah knows all his chosen ones, and the 'real' chosen ones knows themselves. 1 Like |

Silentscreamer: JuanDeDios: They don't have prophets and they don't claim to be prophets. The Bible doesn't support that there would be prophets in our time. Neither do we claim so. Our understanding of the Bible made us understand that God's kingdom started ruling in 1914. It was that understanding that we had. We felt that that kingdom extended to the earth but which wasn't true. But that 1914 heralded the reign of Christ was true. Our understanding of the Bible is not complete but what we hold is the truth. If it needs to be adjusted we would humbly do so as far it is in line with the Bible and not man's thought. Just aa Daniel account helps us understand that the true knowledge would become abundant at the end of times. Dan 12:4 So that means all understanding won't definitely be clear at one single time. Just the same it wasn't for the apostles. Matt 24: 1-14. Today as we study the Bible and our understanding becomes clearer we adjust to the truth. Which is not the same with other religions who claim they're the custodians of spiritual truth when they're clear evidence from the Bible that their teachings are filled with lies. They don't want to change or adjust. They forget that the light of the righteous keeps getting brighter & brighter. For example we first celebrated Christmas, but when we found out that it wasn't in the Bible we stopped it immediately. Can you say that for others? Now that is one out of a thousand. 3 Likes 1 Share |

It pains a lot to see a disabled you intended to help turn against you, calling you a fraudster. Thats what many have done to this sincere worhipers of the only true God. They are not paid yet they still have to provide for the family and finance their life-saving work, yet many turn against them and mistreat them. They've suffered persecutions, oppositions, shame, abuse ect, yet come rain come sun they are still there with the bags carry utensils of peace for the nations. How sad! Who said Jehovah's witnesses are false religion? Lets face it. Apart from JW's which other religion are obeying the direct command of Jesus to preach from city to city and from house to house?(matt 6:11-14;24:14;28:18-20) Which religion love it members more than JW's? (John 13:34,35) Except JW's which religion know and fulfil the law of christ? (Gal 6:2). Which religion except JW's obey the law of blood, sex, politics, peace as stated in God's word the bible? Judge for yourself with your conscience. |
