We are all ONE in the Body of Christ.

End of Story.

JESUS IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER



YES!
Very Good ones at that.


Jehovah God bless you.

They would rather read crime stories, romance, thrillers than to read any book or listen to any message by other popular know Christians like Benny Hinn, Oyedepo, Adelaja. etc
So u wont see them listening to Ron Kenoly or Maranatha Music but u will see them dance to and enjoy Buju Banton, Chaka Demus and co

I don't attend meetings regularly but I know that if there are true Christians on Earth, they are Jehovah's witnesses

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.

Reminds me of one movie I was watching on Netflix some months ago The Children Act.

Jewish principles of Pikuash Nefesh, thanks to all the arguments here, never heard about that.Knowledge is indeed power.
Aha!!! you are indeed a very studious person. Rozz I would please want you to read this if you can :
https://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/blood-transfusions.php#L1

BTW, do you know that there was a time when they considered organ transfer cannibalism? That led to the death of some jehovah's witnesses who couldn't receive full organs or body tissues. The funny thing is that many present Jehovahs witnesses do not know this.

That www.jwfacts.com is a gold mine for any Jehovahs witness that is really interested in knowing the truth about their organization.

Isn't it funny how before you utter a word, the jehovah's witnesses are already directing you to their website, but when we direct them to www.jwfacts.com they refuse to go and call it apostate material. When for the most part what was referenced on the site are jehovah's witnesses publications.

What they tell others to do, they refuse to do themselves.

How can someone call what he believes "the truth" if he is afraid of scrutinizing it?

Your answer is in Like 16:24. Flame and hell are your key words

I don't normally argue with JW, because it's a cult and it's usually manipulative or unreasonable.

The history of the cult, especially of several failed apocalyptic dates predicted by the leaders, gives much not desire. Please, don't mention me again, won't trade words with you.
So in that same verse Lazarus was begging for a tip of water on a finger. Can you also explain how that quenches thirst? The illustration only explained a change in circumstances. Why didn't Adam and Eve go to hell? Weren't they the first sinners? Man is imperfect, perhaps even Jesus' apostles made mistakes too. It's personal to you if you wish to remain foolish. Bye.

Jehovah witnesses only define false religion.

Sentiments and emotions prove nothing.

You have refused to answer my three questions on the other thread. Yet here you are.

Because you were a Muslim and converted to Jehovahs witnesses does not prove they have the truth. People change religious beliefs everyday.

Infact here's a video of a female priest who converted to Islam because as she says, "It was Jesus himself that directed me to Islam"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83c535Rpdhk

So as you can see, it will be your word against hers. You don't prove anything by jumping from thread to thread like a tout picking fights grin

This is the question that needs answer.

provide biblical and emperical evidence for us all to see your religion was chosen in 1919

I agree o. Truth is deep. Here we are discussing just the Christian faith, we have not even started discussing Islam or Judaism.
Those religions too believe they have the truth.

Just a side note for any Jehovahs witness who thinks they didn't teach organ transplant was cannibalism or thinks I'm lying.
See am here grin
"Sustaining one's life by means of the body or part of the body of another human ... would be cannibalism, a practice abhorrent to all civilized people. ... It is not our place to decide whether such operations are advisable from a scientific or medical standpoint... Christians who have been enlightened by God's Word do not need to make these decisions based simply on the basis of personal whim or emotion. They can consider the divine principles and use these in making personal decisions as they look to God for direction, trusting him and putting their confidence in the future that he has in store for those who love him." Watchtower 1967 Nov 15 pp.702-704 grin I have more receipts if una want.

You know when a GB member cited Matthew 18:16 for bases of TWO witness rule that JESUS himself agreed concerning that. Then the GB was told the reference to that was Deuteronomy 19:15 he agreed the framework for two witness rule was developed from there.

Then he was directed to Deuteronomy 22:25 that what does he think JESUS will do in this case as it applies to CHILD ABUSE since the framework for two witness rule came from the MOSAIC law. Will Jesus apply the TWO WITNESS RULE?

GB member use style run away from the question saying he will like to ASK JESUS personally.

I just say for my mind see the person wey sey im be FAITHFUL and DISCREET slave wey JESUS appoint to feed in fellow slaves.

We are to PREACH and TEACH!

So if you find something desirable in us we will help you see the need to join us, and if you have reasonable questions, we answer by teaching you from the Bible.

But when it comes to arguments we will run! Titus 3:9

If any of them want to ask questions, i'm ready to answer, but there are rules to guide against arguments, so we will agree on some rules then we can chat friendly as neighbours.

But in most times what this people feel is that we are on the same page with them, so they turn to insults and abuses when they find out we have different opinion, surely true Christians must avoid such! Ephesians 4:31; Colossians 3:8 smiley
