Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Not Marry Other ' Christians '? by chatinent: 8:42am On Jul 26, 2020 |
Of course, Christians who want to marry are commanded to choose only a fellow believer. ( 1 Corinthians 7:39) Jehovah’s Witnesses view this command as referring not merely to a person who respects our beliefs but to one who shares and practices those beliefs as a baptized Witness. ( 2 Corinthians 6:14) God has always directed his worshippers to marry only those of the same faith. ( Genesis 24:3; Malachi 2:11) This command is also practical, as modern researchers have found. . I know some will reprove me saying 'we are all Christians.' Think: If you marry, will you appreciate if she didn't come to your church? Will it end in happiness? Would you share her beliefs? Even greatly, it will be disobedience to our God. We appreciate marrying people who share our beliefs; it brings happiness and we can avoid marry problems as pre-marital sex, unwanted pregnancies, and STDs. . Next time when you say 'we are all Christians,' do well to be open-minded to ask yourself if your beliefs are the same with ours. . Gracias. . Comments are welcome. I'll respond to civil ones. 30 Likes 4 Shares |

I know for a fact that Jehovah witnesses and other hard core Christians and Muslims are just a menace to the society what do you get when an Anglican marries a Jehovah witness? You get someone who just comes to your door and bother you for no reason 51 Likes |

chatinent: Jehovah's Witnesses do and believe what their religious leaders tell them to do. It doesn't have to be what the bible says, as history of their religion has proven many times. For Jehovah's Witnesses to marry or not to marry a fellow Christian (not denomination) is solely based on what their currently belief as set forth by their religious hierarchy. They can claim from now till tomorrow that it's the bible blablabla. But when all is done and dusted, it's based on the current edict of their religious leaders. If the leader changes their mind, 8m people also changes their mind. In the months leading to my awakening from the group, an elder in one of the congregations I attended said to members that when they are preaching to outsiders, they have to preach what is there in the bible, then enforces the point by saying, not just what they see in the bible but it has to harmonise with what the religion (they call it organisation) teaches. This indoctrination crystallises their mind. That is why if you are talking with one of them, and what he is saying clearly contradicts what the bible says, its like a veil covers his eyes from seeing it. He will argue, jumped from one point to another so as not to see what is clearly stated there in. But to know his mindset, just ask him what he will do if his religion start teaching the same thing in the future, that's when you will realise the truth. That these people are men's followers. They are idolaters. Below is a propaganda video of JWs preparing families to shun their children who left the religion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=feOtGdslHhk 104 Likes 7 Shares |

Religion causes more harm and division to the human race. I could remember a lady who was totally into me breaking up with me because she was from a different Christian denomination and her dad was a pastor. Don't do religion, do spirituality. 97 Likes 6 Shares |

Religion have destroyed humanity more than war. A faithful adherent of any religion is an extremist. Religious people discriminate and hate others that don't don't share their own beliefs and doctrines. That's is why I love the Catholics, Anglican, Methodist, Presbyterian and Baptist Churches. They don't restrict their members from marrying from Islam, traditional society and other churches, being it man or woman. 11 Likes |

Religion in its totality is a farce. The MOST important is “DO GOOD AND AVOID ALL THAT YOU WOULDN’T LIKE DONE TO YOU”. Life is simpler than what religion afflicted. 15 Likes 2 Shares |

Personally apart from the way they preach I think the witnesses do what God actually wants us to do, which is evangelism I love their way of life, just that they sometimes preach what is not in the bible ![]() ![]() 8 Likes |
