My concern is not about your opinion you have of JW's or whether other churches preach or not. After all preaching simply means declaring a message. My concern is... So I'm more concerned in the content not the activity. ![]() |

AkinwaleJJ: Whoever understands what the Bible teaches should be able to mention the name of that group that's practicing what Jesus taught, failure to do so means you've not gotten anything tangible in your reading of the Bible A Bible verse to support this or is it a doctrine cooked by JWs? It's obvious you're not after that so there's no way you and i can come to terms After showing from the publications of the organization you are a member of that all the translations are not inspired by God. What you just want me to do is just accept what you have said and no questions. Whereas among just one among many that made the NWT questionable is based on Romans 10 : 10 - 13 which you are still to clear up ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

DappaD: The context of Mt 22:37 in itself exposes your false knowledge in comparison. In Mt 22:37, Jesus was quoting a text in response to the question. The place clearly says "the Lord your God". It's clear from the context Jesus was referring to another, not himself. This is Jesus responding to a question, quoting a scripture. So that comparison shows lack of knowledge. You compare two similar things, not dissimilar things. And yes, the Tetragrammaton is not used. Lord is not all cap. But its clearly written there Lord your God. Besides, this is Jesus responding to a question about the law, quoting from the OT. This is not the same with Ro 10. Context my friend. Learn context. Don't be shooting yourself in the leg. This is a public forum, you are disgracing yourself. 1 Like |

MaxInDHouse: By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17 Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Research is now a fruit of the spirit? I like quoting out the verses you mention because you mislead people with them. If research is a fruit of the spirit then scientists must be the best Christians. ![]() |

rottennaija: There are many birds in the sky, many fishes in the sea, many animals in the jungle, lots of cash in the bank, millions of vehicles on the road but what have you? The NWT belongs to Jehovah's Witnesses and everyone knows that's the version they're using to accomplish whatever you're seeing today! So mention one single group with their version, then let's hear what they've been able to achieve (with there version) so far! |

DappaD: Well, you do have a point, a lot of churches rather preach prosperity which is just an aspect of the heavenly kingdom. But some still preach the heavenly kingdom even though they focus more on prosperity. |

No no, I drew that comparison through your own faulty logic. That, which you will see below. Since when is rot.tennaija interested in context? Nothing concern context here again. About your analogy, this is what you said with your own mouth on nairaland earlier today
From the above, your petty little comparison was that, when kyrios appeared in lower caps, it was referring to Jesus, so where did you see Lord all caps in Matthew 22:37? Is the Lord in Matthew 22:37 Jehovah or Jesus? Abi you wan deny wetin you use your own mouth talk? |

achorladey: Back in the first century there was so much tension within the Jewish community because of contradictions having to do with what Jesus' disciples were interpreting from the prophecies. This group were quoting the ot and teaching people that everything points to both their master and his newly formed group! The main problem back then is the interpretation they were giving those scriptures! Today Jehovah's Witnesses are saying it's the name of JEHOVAH that must be called for people to get saved just as God's son made a lot of emphasis on the importance of his father's name [John 17:6,26] the JWs have successfully disarmed over 8.7 million people from different races and produced a global family from them. The weapon they're using to achieve this is their NWT. Please present a version, the group making use of it and what they've been able to do just as i've explained about Jehovah's Witnesses! |

Ok God's Kingdom is also called “Kingdom of the heavens” because Jehovah God established it in heaven(Daniel 2:44) From in-depth study of the Bible, it's not all righteous persons who will go to heaven. It is only a select few, the “little flock” of 144,000 anointed Christians.(Luke 12:32, Revelation 7:4-8, 14:1-4) The idea of everyone going to heaven to just a funny and absurd idea because God made the earth for humans(Psalm 115:16) and that his decision for obedient humans to inhabit the earth will never change. (Psalm 37:29, Isaiah 45:18) God's Kingdom under the rulership of Jesus and the 144,000, is to rule over the earth to remove all wickedness and make the earth into a paradise it once was before.(Revelation 5:9-10, 21:3-4) That is what JW's have been preaching all along. ![]() |

achorladey: If Jehovah's Witnesses call them "false" and you can't present any group that has done at least 2% of what JWs have achieved with their NWT, i think there is no need for further arguements! |

AkinwaleJJ: The fact you decided to abandon Romans 10: 10-13 make this LAUGHABLE and interesting. Now you have reached the need to call on the name of JEHOVAH again for people to get saved. Had you addressed Romans 10: 10 -13 you won't fall into this. Back to the First century Christian, the first "GOVERNING BODY" member also known as DEPUTY JESUS ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() NWT Acts 4:10 let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel that in the name of Jesus Christ the Naz·a·reneʹ,+ whom you executed on a stake+ but whom God raised up from the dead,+ by means of him this man stands here healthy in front of you. 11 This is ‘the stone that was treated by you builders as of no account that has become the chief cornerstone.’*+ 12 Furthermore, there is no salvation in anyone else, for there is no other name+ under heaven that has been given among men by which we must get saved.”+ KJV Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. 11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. 12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

achorladey: They made use of it before their own version was released. But is that not a plus to this group who used the same book that all others have been using for centuries yet their members are still killing one another claiming disciples of Jesus? Surely it's included to help discuss with those who make use of it in their homes. I for one used the KJV until i realized the effectiveness of NWT as the users are better equipped than all other religionsists around! |

AkinwaleJJ: You want me to start pointing group for you when you are not appreciative enough of the works of people who had live during the years 100 - 1800 not to talk of those who are living during the past 140 years of the existence of the ORGANIZATION you belong. If you can't see it spread all around you. Its not a problem of mine. At least be thankful you had KJV to start with before the leaders of the organization thought of having the NWT That alone is more than 2 percent and the fact you still use the KJV tells me pointing to you what other group have done is irrelevant ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

DappaD: Now you're contradicting AkinwaleJJ one of your JW members who believes God has no interest in earth but only heaven according to your doctrine. My argument was simply that the world would be a better place if true Christian went into politics unlike the popular misdoctrination that politics is not for Christian's. According to the Lord's prayer, God's kingdom is to be established on earth as it is in heaven. For that to happen I believe God won't come down to do that but it will be achieved through people. How then can it be achieved if Chrostians being instructed to shun politics where the power to influence nations lies? Taking precedence from Jospeh, Daniel, David, Paul etc who dabbled into Politics. |

Re: Jehovah’s Witnesses To Face Trial For Discrimination And Incitement To Hate by DappaD: 7:07pm On Sep 27, 2020 |
I'm sure you didn't fully understand AkinwaleJJ's post, as he in no way contradicted what I said.
Mr Mye.r I thought we've been over this before. We agreed that you're free to hold on to your own opinion but just know that what you're saying now has no basis in the Bible and as such JW's(true Christians) will not listen to you because it makes no sense to us at all! You can go and meet your regular churchgoers with that idea because it will seem appealing to them—but just know that JW's(true Christians) will have nothing to do with politics because we stand for God's Kingdom which is not of human origin. (Daniel 2:44, John 18:36) |
Re: Jehovah’s Witnesses To Face Trial For Discrimination And Incitement To Hate by AkinwaleJJ(f): 7:13pm On Sep 27, 2020 |
Myer:Surely you missed the point in my post because Jehovah's Witnesses believe solely in life on earth not heaven! My argument was simply that the world would be a better place if true Christian went into politics unlike the popular misdoctrination that politics is not for Christian's.That's impossible, because Jesus never taught us to drag political seats with unbelievers, if they honourably call on us to serve the people, surely JWs will gladly render the service, after all it's for the benefit of all. But to join in their campaigns, trying to woo all sorts of godless and immoral miscreants while we're coming to serve them doesn't worth it! According to the Lord's prayer, God's kingdom is to be established on earth as it is in heaven. For that to happen I believe God won't come down to do that but it will be achieved through people.YES! We pray for God's Kingdom to come but it's our Born Again brothers only who have stayed with Jesus in heaven that's coming to do that not we on planet earth! Reve 21:2 How then can it be achieved if Christians being instructed to shun politics where the power to influence nations lies?The entire inhabited earth is controlled by Satan [1John 5:19] so there is nothing humans can do to solve the problems, according to God's word things will continue to get worse under human government! Eccl 4:1, 8:9 Taking precedence from Jospeh, Daniel, David,They were honourably called to serve, they never solicited for it! |

MaxInDHouse: There you go again, making ignorant conclusions. I regard the bible as much as I regard the quran. I simply point out the facts in both. While the quran has managed to be consistent, the bible has proven to be contradictory. If you will pull the scales from your religious eyes, you will admit the contradictions too. But then again, as a wise friend would say, the contradictions are to prove God's sovereignty. |
