Myth:- why do Jehovah witnesses not recite national anthems are there trying to break away from naija?
because they don't pledge their loyalty to any country or government.


even you that sing, so you keep to what you sing? are you loyal to your country? are you honest in all your dealings?

Another misconception is that they JW doesn't believe in Jesus. Fact: According to John 3:16 the believe that Jesus is God's son sent to redeem obedient Mankind to Adamic Sin and Dead

Oh, Christ worshipers! We want an answer to our question from your wise. If the Lord was murdered by some people’s act…what sort of god is this? We wonder! Was He pleased by what they did to Him? If yes, blessed be they..they achieved the pleasure of His But if He was discontented….this means their power subjugated His!! Was the whole entity left without a Sustainer… so who answered the prayers? Were the heavens vacated…when He laid under the ground somewheres? Were all the worlds left without a God…to manage while His hands were nailed? Why did not the angles help Him when they heard him while he wailed? How could the rods stand to bear the True Lord when He was fastened How could the iron reach Him and His body pinioned? How could His enemies’ hands reach Him and slap His rear And was Christ revived by himself…or the Reviver was another god? What a sight it is!A grave that enclosed a god! What’s more weird is the belly that had Him in it! He stayed there for nine months in utter darkness…fed by blood! Then he got out of the womb as a small baby, weak and gaping to be breastfed! He ate and drank, and did what that naturally resulted in Is this a god??!! High Exalted be Allah above the lies of Christians All of them will be held accountable for their libels Oh cross worshipers…for what reason is it exalted and blamed who rejects it? Is it not the logic to break and burn it along with the one who innovated it? Since the Lord was crucified on it…and his hands were fastened to it? That is really a cursed cross to carry…so discard it Don’t kiss it! The Lord was abused on it…and you adore it? So you are one of His enemies!! If you extol it because it carried the Lord of the worlds why don’t you prostrate yourself and worship graves, since the grave contained your god in it? So, Christ worshiper, open your eyes, this is what the matter is all about.

Stupid comment. If you've read and understood the Bible, you'd not be this stupid. Or perhaps stupidity is in your blood.

Jehovah Witness is a cult meant to manipulate the mind and ultimately drive Christian's away from the goal which is heaven. The earlier people get to know this the better. You want evidence...go do your research.

Baba, I wonder o. Even Deeper life members now watch TV! People should study the word and be led by the holy Spirit instead of believing everything their pastors tell them hook, line and sinker.
Okay, we have heard you, churchgoers really need to hear this more. They are mostly affected.

I remember when I was in Ss3 ... I had this beautiful class mate of mine called Uchechi ...she was a very funny and lively girl and she was a Witness.

One fateful day she had an accident on her way to write NECO exam .... She lost a lot of blood and was the hospital requested for blood transfusion but the parents refused ... Everyday we went to the hospital we literally watched our classmate tether on the brink of death just because of a stupid manmade ideology.

Our principal had to involve social service authorities from the local govt and when they intervened, they took over the case and called the senior brother who was in another state to come and donate blood since the parents were adamant.

That was how Uchechi's life was saved but the unity of their family was never saved because she quitted the church when she went to Uni and her parents kind of partially disowned her.

And Uchechi's parents are secretly happy that their daughter didn't die.

On the blood transfusion issue: Your attempt to defend your religion is very puerile. Transfusion is medically sound. It remains the best option for saving lives in emergency situations where the patient has lost lots of blood. There are perfectly matching blood samples.
Your "non-blood" alternative is for long term regenerative use, this only applies when the patient is not in immediate danger.
Your last statement about "why worry about this world" says it all. You guys are as suicidal as the fanatics found in other religions

At least your friend was saved and presently Alive but my cousin was not so lucky . Her parent s and JW family watch her die amid the various attempt by other non JW family to save her life. This was 1997 . We did not know about social services back then nor was there information available to us then . JW are something else. It's a cult and they do not know they are in bondage.

in your last word there,BEING DISOWNED.
that's what Jehovah witnesses do.once a child decides to dump their own doctrines or go to another denominations apart from theirs.The next thing they will do to such child is that they'll disown him/her.

they're scripturally sound though and I had their impartation while I was growing up.
buh some odd things about them is what pisses me off

When I get to the bridge of marriage and she can't marry me cos she is a jehovah witness, then I'll find another love, there are so many girls on earth. One thing is that I can't believe in the shit jehovah witness teach, I engage her in arguments and she can't even defend what she believes in. I love her, that is what matters, if she can't compromise when the time comes for our love, then I'll gladly leave. Hia! Is that so hard?

The thing is that marriages these days are like gambles. So many divorces. But I have realized that witnesses hardly divorce and their marriages last longer than any christian group I have seen so far. Have you not noticed that? My aunt was telling me that if I want peace of mind, that I should marry a witness. I am beginning to see some lights in what she said. Their wives are always loyal. You will hardly see a witness wife being divorced due to infidelity except few of the young girls that are still in school do keep boyfriends. But once they get married, they are always loyal. And I have really been thinking deeply whether to follow my aunt's advice.

Hmm one in the body of Christ ?

JW no gree that wan 0

I there mind ,they are the only good people , while everyone else is evil. They believe that they are the only people who understand what God is telling us in the Bible. Meanwhile every time they they try to interpret biblical prophecy they ALWAYS get it wrong. (Aand please don't bring 1914 or 1975 near this place)

If you want to know why it's membership seems so committed, it's because of something I call voluntary brainwash. Their "Society " has made them believe that everything they do in the the name of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society is directly from God. ( Grade 1 brainwashing)

Let me pause.

Oh and when you wanna mention me for nonsense keep in mind that I was a member who found out the who real JW are

so I use God beg unu please don't get me started



.
Dem and Scientology are thesame . Thesame brain washing and collective effort in excommunicating anyone that venture to live the cult. The different between them is thier belief system but they behave thesame way .
