Narrate to me where you saw it please.

jeff1993:
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.

Chommybaby:



You know....

I never asked you to quote the scriptures OK...

Like I said 'I believe we all will be judged by what we believe' For example: As JW don't accept blood transfusion and I do doesn't make me a sinner or disqualifies me from heaven, neither does it make the JWs killers for letting their people die for lack of blood..
So our faith judges us....

Cos you won't tell me that Muslims, traditionalists, Buddhists and the rest of other faiths will be 'cast into a lake of fire' and you being a Christian will make heaven...

And the way you do much believe in hades\hell makes me wonder if you aren't a sadist...

Now please ask specific questions. What I mean is are you saying the Bible quotations supplied are not helpful or you think it is a matter we can rationalize with our own mind?

God said don't eat blood. Do you believe that? And God explained in detail when giving the law: don't eat blood. Pour it into the dust when you happen to kill any animal to eat. Don't eat the blood. And he went further, blood should be used only for sacrifice as atonement.
All these laws where given before Jesus Christ came. God emphasized this law because he knew that such blood sacrifice was pointing to the all important sacrifice of his own son Jesus Christ. And so Christ's shedding of his perfect blood is the reason why we can maintain a righteous standing with God today.
So after Jesus had left for heaven, when the Apostles were writing to Gentiles who would later become Christians, they made it clear that God has commanded we abstain from blood. Blood cannot rightly be used as medicine. It is wrong. The only blood that saves life is the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Other than that any other use of blood is a violation of God's law. It takes Faith to keep this law, and that is the faith all true Christians must possess. Without faith, the Bible says, we cannot please God well, Heb 11:6.

Or do you think that blood transfusion does not amount to eating blood?

So you believe your jehovah will come kill/slaughter/destroy/murder/commit the greatest genocide against non jws/pagans/wicked/worldly/evil/unrighteous people because they chose not to unquestionably obey 8 old imperfect, uninspired and fallible men who err in doctrinal matters and organisation and reside in new York as the only channel of communication between God and man today?

Well, sorry to tell you that the only place it will ever happen is inside your head and your watchtower magazines.

Argue with these:


1. Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”
John 20:28
- Did you see Jesus told Thomas he was wrong in calling him Lord and God?

2. “Very truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born, I am!” At this, they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds. John 8:58‭-‬59
-, I hope you know why they wanted to stone Jesus? Because they felt he blasphemed by indirectly equating himself to God by using the same name "I am" that God used to referred to himself while revealing himself to Moses in the wilderness for himself(Jesus). God told Moses I am that I am. Jesus in turn said before Abraham was, I am... A present tense.

3. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; Philippians 2:5‭-‬6
- Paul inferred that Jesus is equal to God


You people have a fixed mindset, you are incapable at looking at the scripture from a broad and holistic mindset. You have a narrow and conditioned mindset and seek for passages in the scripture to justify what you have made up your mind to believe. You say hell cannot exist because God is not wicked forgetting that hell is not about fire but about pain of eternal separation from God. In order to set ground for that justification you first denied immortality of the soul. You said there is no distinction between body and soul. How do you reconcile that with a passage that says "You must Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength"?
Three distinct elements of man - heart, soul and strength are mentioned in that passage. Or how do you reconcile that belief with the passage where Paul wrote "May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.1 Thessalonians 5:23

How can any sound mind who have read Bible through and through deny hell with fire and brimstone exist after so many references of Jesus to it. You guys disgust me with the heresies you spread around.

Is Jehovah's Witnesses a false religion?

No

So instead of wasting your time, trying to mislead people. Take your "truth" to your disorganized denominations with conflicting teachings and doctrines caused by their independent thoughts.
Leave JWs with their united thought which unifies them around the world, cause that very fact is one of reasons why they are convinced that they've identified true religion.

wisewordd:
Why don't you guys marry outside your church but your members have sexual intercourse with non members.

Why don't you guys accept other churches books and listen to their preaching but you go around knocking on people's doors.

Why don't you guys enter other churches if invited to weddings or anniversaries, which I know you do celebrate.

Why?

joyandfaith:


of course, you have to start from God, Bible, Jehovah's witness

my conclusion -all true.

have u checked for your religion if it is false?

justli:


Like I said before, you're afraid to probe your faith. Why? Because you don't want to open the cane of worm. Jw is a cult group, shrouded in secrecy.
They dismember you as soon as you begin to ask questions.
But I wouldn't blame you, the brain washing is deep.

Just like the guy I was engaging up there,
Even having shown him where Jesus was telling the people to feel his flesh.

Even when Jesus was telling them that spirits don't have flesh and bones, meaning he is here with them not as a spirit, the brainwashed mofo is still asking me what then did Jesus sacrificed.

He wants me to tell him that the sacrifice was the cleansing blood of Jesus.

justli:


Yes. I grew up in an Orthodox Church. But once it was time for me to understand my faith and not what I was taught as a kid, I probed it with prayers

God revealed the truth to me

If one seeks knowledge, he is rich in mercy he will help us find the truth.

Even though I liked the church I grew up in, I have to see clearly that a lot of the church's traditions were not biblical.

It was hard, but one message stood out: we don't owe allegiance to men and their traditions we should only be guided by the word of God.
And if you are wise you have to be able to discern a false religion.

Investnow2017:


How did he now go back to heaven? Physically? What Jesus said to Thomas that a spirit does not have flesh and blood substantiate what I have earlier said. You are not getting something clear here. A spirit is a higher form of life. While a spirit can materialize and take on human form, a human flesh cannot turn into a spirit.
So the scriptures you have cited corroborate my point. If he resurrected as a physical human how was he able to ascend to heaven?

Narijoel:

Interesting, so where do you worship now?

tete7000:


If I follow your logic, nothing awaits me after death, I simply go out of existence, so you already contradict yourself. There is no punishment no pain. So tell me why should I bother following Jehovah witnessing when I know the worst punishment is that I go out of existence. No hell, no pain, no sorrow. Why do I need to stop enjoying my sins and repent self? To what end and for what purpose? I don't need your new heaven on earth.

WINDSOW:
Can u see how he twisted the Bible to suit their belief. That's how they are. There is nothing u ll tell him to make him believe u. They are trained to be heart-hardened like Pharaoh. Stupid people!
JW ll be explaining the Bible using scientific illustrations. They don't understand the power of the Holy Spirit. Little wonder to refer to Him as "God active force" in their werey bible. Using their concocted Awake magazines to delude people. Tell them your view, Nba!

justli:


The thing is we don't believe in a one true church. We believe in one living word of God and one body of christ. This is why I can leave a church if the pastor becomes fake.

Your salvation is not tied to any church but accepting the wholesome sacrifice on the cross.
He said it was finished. The sacrifice was sufficient and the only thing needed.

Gathering of the brethren is profitable. But as long as the gathering is in line with the scripture.
Let no man deceive you, you can read the Bible and understand it for yourself.

Jehovah witness organization. I have never seen or heard any issue of infidelity from the married ones unlike what we see in the society today where a woman will be sneaking out to sleep with a younger man outside. I noticed witness wives don't do that. Like keeping illicit affairs aside their marriages. Never have I heard such matters arising from them.

So your reason for your purported serving God is prompted by the fear of hellfire. This is a big revelation about yourself. You do not love God, your avowed show is simply motivated by fear and not love. I now see why you love and are obsessed with hellfire. Well dear, you need to study the Bible to KNOW God, I don't mean having some perverted knowledge about him or being familiar with some Bible verses, you need to KNOW God, whom the Bible says is LOVE.

This is a religious issue rather than a medical one. Both the Old and New Testaments clearly command us to abstain from blood. ( Genesis 9:4; Leviticus 17:10; Deuteronomy 12:23; Acts 15:28, 29) Also, God views blood as representing life. (Leviticus 17:14) So we avoid taking blood not only in obedience to God but also out of respect for him as the Giver of life. Remember, he is the 'Giver of Life.'
