Lostz: Lostz: I don't think this forum is the right place. Achorladey: When person enter market, na the business you come do for market you go face. Not picking out noise makers. You said you don't think it's the right place for YOU, fine. Lostz: Jehovah witnesses are likely to knock on your door. Achorladey: And if they fail to attend to the DEFINITIONS as requested. What else. Lostz: I don't need to force my opinion on you. Achorladey: I am not holding your JUGULAR in order to do so. Lostz: my opinion is that they are the true religion Achorladey: It's just as you PLACE and PUT it. Lostz: like I said, you do your own comparison and come to your own conclusion Achorladey: I have done mine and you said Ibdon't need to share it with you. Fine! |

chatinent: Abegi principled my foot. Controversial people everywhere. People who divorce n remarry themselves and drink alcohol like it's going out of fashion. Any religion that forbids u from mixing up with others are extremists as far as am concerned and that is because they are afraid u will hear the truth by going to another church for a function hence you are forbidden. 1 Like |

Janosky:Lol @Rozz is not even a member of the Jehovah's witness organization yet and you are trying to control what information she consumes and what she doesn't. Imagine if her church pastor told her the same thing about your jw official website. Isn't it hypocritical to accuse in others what you excuse in yourself? Imagine a religion that tells you what to read and what not to read. I hope everyone is reading o. 2 Likes |

Timalt: Well i have found the group of Jesus' true followers! They will be preaching and teaching throughout the earth! Matthew 24:14 He promised that LOVE will be the mark to recognize their group! John 13:34-35 He prayed for a uniting bond in their midst! John 17:20-23 They will be objects of hatred everywhere they are! Matthew 10:22 They will be separated from all other religious groups! John 17:14-16 All eyes will be on their group! Matthew 5:13-16 There will be PEACE amongst them even though they come from different races! Micah 4:1-3 All these composite signs i have found in a group claiming followers of Christ, so i concluded that they're the group Jesus was talking about! |

Rozz: I told you "Charity begins at home but it doesn't end there" I bear him witness that deep down in his heart he feels like saying you from a deadly cult, but lack of knowledge about what he want will not allow him! Romans 10:2-3 He has been accusing me of being abusive in the other thread, running away from his questions, arguing with him and insulting his friends! Of course i can't deny any of that, but for everyone to know that that's not the way my own Organization groomed her members, i've maintained my calmness. Now he has been the one doing exactly what he used to do despite the fact that i even said it beforehand that everyone should watch who lacks the spirit of humility! Well they have the zeal for God, but lacks wisdom! Luke 7:31-35 |

Re: Five (5) Misconceptions About Jehovah's Witnesses. by Timalt: 11:02pm On Jun 01, 2020 |
Maximus69:Nice one. While all these are noble and nice, it is to be stated that some of the characteristics are displayed by a number of other churches, like the mennonites (Anabaptists), the seven day Adventists, and the church of jesus christ of latter day saints (Mormons) amongst others. You definitely do not want to head down this rabbit hole of box ticking why your religion must be the truth because you do this, this and that. For example the Seven days Adventist share quite a number of practices and doctrines with Jehovah's witnesses because of their history. The Mormons on the other hand, have 12 pillars that they believe make them the true church. The anabaptists (mennonites) do not partake in wars and politics and a host of other things. What I am saying is if people did not believe they have the true church, they would not remain in them. These churches I have mentioned are churches that has some strong "controversial" (controversial to mainstream Christians) doctrines just like the Jehovah witness organization. The big question that removes all these box ticking exercise as to whose church is true or not is simply evidence. Your religion for example claims it was chosen by God and Christ in 1919. If that is true then we have an authority base from which we can then beat our chest and say, because we were chosen, we have the truth. Now my question is what is the evidence that you were chosen in 1919 like you claimed? Where is the emperical and Biblical evidence? And please when you answer, go straight to the point, and don't drown me in a long body of text without answering the question. Also, I hope you would be open minded to consider my own counter arguments should I have one to submit? Thank you |

Timalt: You are highly welcome Sir! Please note that i have not mentioned any name in the post you quoted, i only listed the qualities i found through my diligent study and thorough meditation of God's word. But you've concluded that since my religion have all these qualities which you yourself confirmed is "noble and nice". Can you please mention the name of your own religion (Church) just as you've mentioned about three religious groups having similar characteristics like mine? So i can know the qualities that draw you into the group you're worshiping with now? I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses, please let me know the name of your own Church before we start asking each other questions so it won't be one sided Sir. God bless you Sir! |

Maximus69: This is the problem I have had with you for about 5 days now. When I ask you the important question, you deflected to ask me what church I am attending. What you want to do is so petty, it's clear you want to drag me down into a dick measuring contest of which church is better. The first century Christians did not attend church services in large Kingdom halls, assembly halls or large church auditoriums. They met in small homes. These homes were called ecclesias. Which meant a church or congregation. Many of the gatherings at home were characterized by sharing of meals together and worshiping together. Again the first century Christians did not have an autocratic totalitarian structure that you have today in your organization. They enjoyed what the apostles called Christian Freedom. That is why the jews celebrated festivals, performed circumcisions, and observed the sabbath. Buy the gentile Christians were under no obligation to do these even though it was one body and one faith. In a nutshell, I worship with a small group of fellow believers at homes. Christians worldwide make up the Body of christ, I don't discriminate against my fellow Christians because I know that according to the Bible, my salvation does not depend on an association to an organization. Now, would you please answer my question? Also The fact that said that some things about your organization is noble does not change the fact that it has evil policies and doctrines that divides homes, that break families, that ostracizes people, that leads to people's deaths, that has prophesied falsely on many occasions. Not just internalized wrong expectations, but widely proclaimed and published false predictions. Evil flip flop of doctrines and so on. Enough of this juvenile trap setting already answer my question o Thank you |

Timalt: Today, JWs ACCEPT organ transplants. It's a personal decision At that time in the 1960's JW misgivings about organ transplants were justified. Timalt did medical professionals HAVE GENUINE MISGIVINGS about organ transplants in the 1960's? Timalt's claims lacks Objectivity. Timalt KNOWS AND SAW the PROOF: "'Even from a medical standpoint there is some question as to the wisdom and ethicalness of some transplants. One physician discussed this publicly in the Annals of Internal Medicine, citing the results of 244 kidney-transplant operations. In the majority of cases the recipient did not live more than a year after the operation. Then, commenting on the dangers for the volunteer who donates one of his kidneys, the doctor asked: “Is it right to subject a healthy person . . . to the possibility . . . of shortening his life by 25 or 30 years in order to extend another’s life by 25 or 30 months or less?” Reporting on this, Newsweek, of March 2, 1964, page 74, added that the doctor “offers no conclusive answer, but he suggests that the question needs to be asked more often.”" Timalt NEVER told anyone that in the 1960's medical professionals had misgivings about organ transplants,but the BIGOTED and HYPOCRITICAL CLOWN singled out JWs for malicious attack. Timalt WAYO HYPOCRITE. |

Blendy77: Matthew 5:32, Matthew 19:9, is in your Bible. Did your Jesus condemn Divorce? Did your Jesus Christ not turn water into wine ? Who are you to dictate for JWs about what friends to keep or reject ? Bigotry and HYPOCRISY dey give you sifia pains. |
Re: Five (5) Misconceptions About Jehovah's Witnesses. by Janosky: 4:46am On Jun 02, 2020 |
Timalt: LYING Timalt, WHY did You MISLEAD gullible people on this forum that JWs paid $35m dollars to a plaintiff? Why did you MISLEAD gullible people on this forum that about organ transplant when the Evidences show that even medical professionals HAVE MISGIVINGS about that practice? You no SEE am for your Bible where Jesus Christ says he came to cause divisions in homes and families? Did Jesus Christ and other servants of Jehovah not lose their lives in faithful service to Jehovah? Where The "wrong expectations and false predictions of Jesus disciples not widely proclaimed" Na E dey your Bible? Why did You FALSELY accused JWs and told everyone here to shun them? So much LIES from a "Christian who DON'T discriminate against my fellow Christians..." Timalt WAYO HYPOCRITE |
