pocohantas: Why would someone preach to you if you've received Christ and living according to biblical principles? Its a privilege to be born in a christian home. Salvation is near you. Being born again is the best thing that can happen to anyone. We are never ashamed to say we belong to Him, seeing He isn't ashamed to call us His brethren. |

They behave like a cult A gathering that believe they are superior to others They don't like hearing about other religions They behave violently if you decide to leave The issue of transfusion They don't practice what they preach, their evangelism is just for promotion purposes so they can grow up the ladder They only quote Bible verses to suit their narrative, ask them to read further, they fidget But I like them for their brotherly attitude towards themselves Dedication, even their toddlers They don't discriminate, the least can be the first They are correct about Christmas, |

There's nothing that describes JW other than hypocrisy. You claim to be followers of Jesus Christ but most of the hard-line beliefs are not found in the teachings of Jesus Christ. You instruct your members not to accept blood transfusions(my cousin died cause of this) even in emergencies where the person is sure to die without blood, but you can accept transplants, is there any organ in the human body that doesn't have blood inside? Is that based on the teachings of Jesus Christ? All your beliefs are alike in the sense that they have no basis in the gospel of Jesus Christ. Examine them yourself. A Jehovah's witness has no problem dancing to the music of naira Marley where he's only singing vulgar but once you play a worship song by Nathaniel bassey he/she is infuriated but you are a follower of Christ. You guys are just extremists.[/quote] Don't say what you don't know 1 Like |

timlinofficial: 1. JWs don't worship triune idols of Christendom, daddy G.Os , and we don't pray to triune deities. Matt6:9 . John 4:23,24. John 17:3. Jesus Christ is our examplar. 2. Jesus Christ is a servant of Jehovah.Acts3:13, Isaiah 43:10-12. Rev3:12-14. 1 Cor 3:23. 3. Jehovah's servants will imitiate their examplar. 1 Corinthians 11:1. 3:23. 4. Jesus disciples made predictions that never came to pass. Luke19:11. God's kingdom did not appear immediately since over 2000years till now. 5. Jehovah himself changed doctrine. His people offered animals sacrifice in the past, is timlino offering animals sacrifice today? Your other claim is FALSE. 6. Members of your church and your pastorpreneurs don't welcome JWs to their doorstep too. Don't be a hypocrite. 7 False. Hebrew 13:17 is it in your Bible? It begins and ends with Hebrew 13:17. Shalom. |

I love the organization. Having worshipped 12 years ago, I found it difficult to blend with other religious bodies. JW makes you understand the scripture very well. I have gone to many churches. Majority of the churches are interested in tithe and abusing the purpose of it. Take your time to study the bible from Genesis to Revelation. You can do it daily by taking one to two chapters. Then Saturday or Sunday take four chapters. You will understand the bible better but pray before you start. Study it in a quiet environment. 1 Like |

you also forgot to tell us that you believe that jesus christ is dead and gone, but the jesus we have now is a transformed archangel michael turned to jesus. by this belief you deny the glorious resurrection of our lord: the most significant thing in the life of a christian. |

JW greatest belief is to attack Catholics. that's their major stock in trade. In fact they rate non Christians higher than Catholics. |

I don’t think you’ve properly understood the notion of properly basic beliefs, Tomislav. You mustn’t equate being properly basic with being indefeasible. Memory beliefs (e.g., “I left the car keys in the dresser”) and perceptual beliefs (e.g., “I see a cat in the backyard”) are, like beliefs grounded in testimony, properly basic but are defeasible, that is to say, they can be mistaken. The fact that my properly basic beliefs may sometimes be false does nothing to remove their proper basicality (that is, I am rational and exhibit no cognitive defect in holding such experientially grounded beliefs non-inferentially). If I become aware of some defeater of one of my Best Wireless Earphones Under 5000 properly basic beliefs, then I must give it up (or find a defeater of the defeater). So the fact that some testimony is false doesn’t imply that testimonial beliefs are not properly basic beliefs. It only implies that such beliefs are defeasible and are sometimes defeated. I think that the Mormon’s “burning in the bosom” is an example of a false belief which many Mormons hold in a basic way. By contrast I think that the witness of the Holy Spirit is veridical. Does this imply that “some properly basic beliefs are really more properly basic than others?” No, though adherents of so-called Reformed epistemology would affirm that properly basic beliefs do differ in their degree (the tenacity with which they are held) and depth of ingression (centrality to one’s system of beliefs). For example, my belief that “I have a head” has a greater degree of belief for me than “I left my keys in the dresser,” though both are for me properly basic. What I think you should say is that some properly basic beliefs enjoy greater warrant than others. That is not itself a properly basic belief but is just a matter of what we discover from experience. The difference between my belief and the Mormon’s beli |

lomprico:I wonder if it's one of the things they teach them in their kingdom hall. They are just so weird. Could you believe my school mate who was a former witness is not in good terms with her parents because she now worships in Christ Embassy. Even her siblings hardly call her to know how she is faring. She is a strong girl and doesn't even give a damn about them, she is now a church worker there. Whenever she tells me stories about witnesses and why she left I can't stop laughing (Lol)...... Witnesses love and trust their fellow witness more than their own blood who is a member of another church. That's a fact. |

Lew01: Did Jesus Christ not know that obedience to God would cost him his life? Hebrew 5:7 Did Abraham not aware that obedience to Jehovah could cost the life of his son Isaac? Hebrew 11:17-19. Acts 15:28-28. Acts 5:29. Follow it religiously with faith like Abraham and Jesus Christ. Is Jesus Christ and Abraham extremists? Who are you to decide what music is acceptable to JWs? Do you allow JWs to decide your music? Don't be a hypocrite JWs are choosy in our choice of music, we abhor vulgar music. Your other claims are false. 1 Like |
