You just created this thread for a fight. I'm not even religious yet I know virtually everything you typed up there about their belief is untrue. Why not get busy with something more productive? Just saying.

MightySparrow:
Somebody is looking for knowledge, I suppose, picked up a write - up but feels he is getting a wrong one, how is that an unproductive venture? By questioning the information or not swallowing it without thinking? If you have any explanation please clear his doubts.

DaddyGngeess:
I have alot of Jehovah's witness friends, I have not heard this from them...

Sir, there are ways to engage in a healthy conversation that promotes knowledge sharing. A thread that starts with "I really wonder why adherents of some religious groups don't use their brains." is not one that seeks knowledge but fight. That line is inciting and disrespectful to other people's belief. How would that make you feel if you were a Jehovah's Witness member? You don't see anything wrong with it cause you're not ok the receiving end of the verbal abuse.

Blabbermouth:

Seriously?! That's very very very very unscriptural!
The account of Thomas' ordeal with Jesus(Ressurected) made us understand that Jesus ressurected not as a spirit, anything different from this is a lie concoted from the HQ of the fallen ones.

I really wonder why adherents of some religious groups don't use their brains. They just follow without questioning when they have the opportunity to read the Bible for themselves.

In case you are not aware, the Jehovah Witness don't believe in the bodily resurrection of our Lord Jesus. They claimed he resurrected spiritually without his body.

They said God took his body and since there is no such record in the Bible, it is as good as saying that God stole the body of Jesus. So, they label God as a thief. Read their quote below from their own book; you can live forever in paradise on earth.

'Well, then, what happened to Jesus' fleshly body? Did not the disciples find his tomb empty? They did, because God removed Jesus' body. Why did God do this? It fullilled what had been written in the Bible. (Psalm 16:10; Acts 231) Thus Jehovah saw fit to remove Jesus' body, even as he had done before with Moses' body. (Deuteronomy 34.5, 6) Also, if the body had been left in the tomb, Jesus' disciples could not have understood that he had been raised from the dead, not fully appreciate spiritual things.'(Page 144)

In addition, they label Jesus as a trickster. They said Jesus just appeared in a physical body the way Angels do. In other words, he tricked them to believe he was raised in a physical body. Read their quote from the same book;


But since the apostle Thomas was able to put his hand into the hole in Jesus' side, does that not show that Jesus was raised from the dead in the same body that was nailed to the stake? No, for Jesus simply materialized or took on a fleshly body, as angels have done in the past. In order to convince Thomas who he was, he used a body with wound holes. (Page 145).

Please, humble yourselves and admit you have believed lies all these years. Even a 3 years old child in his right sense won't believe all these lies.

We are Jesus' disciples!
It's only when there is a need that our Master, Lord and King reveal sacred secrets, so if you're with JWs for the next 100 years and you're not interested in knowing deep things, we'll keep it to ourselves and tell you the things your human mind could bear for the moment! John 16:12
Jesus died with the human (physical) body but he resurrected with a spiritual body! 1Corinthians 15:42-46

MightySparrow:
Please more explanation on what spiritual looks like.

JW's believe that Jesus didn't resurrect with His body. They believe He resurrected as a SPIRIT!

Confirm if you will

1Corinthians 15:42-45
Jesus is not one of Adam's descendants, he was from the realms above (heaven) John 8:23
When a life lamb is sacrificed to God it's never to be seen again, so the body with which Jesus lived as the son of man is the propitiatory sacrifice for sin, what his followers saw after his resurrection was a make up form of body that he is alive, that's why they failed to recognize him because the former body is gone! Luke 20:15-35; John 20:11-18
This is just one of many secrets that's hidden from this faithless generation, but Jesus himself said "by their fruit you will know them, people don't gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles do they? Every good tree produces fine fruit while routine tree produce worthless fruit, a good tree will not bear routine fruit neither can a routine tree produce fine fruit" Matthew 7:16-18
Anyone who feels he knows better should go and worship with the better group that are producing the FRUIT of God's holy spirit :- LOVE {John 13:34-35} JOY {Luke 10:17} and PEACE {John 14:27} there still remains six other qualities of the FRUIT "PATIENCE, GOODNESS, GENTLENESS, FAITH, MILDNESS and SELF-CONTROL" Galatians 5:22-23
So it's not by arguing fruitlessly that Jesus' true followers are identified but "by their FRUIT"
If JWs don't have the Holy Spirit working with them, those qualities of God's holy spirit won't be evident with that group throughout the earth as you're all aware of this fact. James 2:18:26
God bless you!

"See My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself;
touch Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have."
(i.e. Look at my hands and feet, and see that it's really me.
Touch me, and see for yourselves. Ghosts/spirits don't have flesh and bones, but you can see that I do."
OR
Look at my hands. Look at my feet. You can see that it’s really me.
Touch me and make sure that I am not a ghost/spirit, because ghosts/spirits don’t have bodies, as you see that I do.”)"
- Luke 24:39

I'll take the Bible's words any time, all time 24/7/365 days over whatever falsehood JW promotes. Smh

PS: MightySparrow, hi, I am already running late stepping out for work, so will have to return asap once out on the road. Sorry

shadeyinka:

Self praise doesn't amount to anything!
If the resurrection Jesus was a spiritual thing
1. How was Thomas able to put his hands in his wounds. Do spirits have would marks?
John 20:27:
"Then said he to Thomas, Reach here your finger, and behold my hands; and reach here your hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing."
2. How as Jesus able to eat as a spirit?
Luk 24:41-43:
"And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said to them, Have you here any meat? And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. And he took it, and did eat before them. "

Do spirits have teeth?

MaxInDHouse:

The highlighted!
Angels are spirits, it's like Abraham prepared meat for three and they ate but i wonder what they used to chew the meat o! Genesis 18:1-8 compare to Hebrew 13:2

shadeyinka:


Didn't Luke diffuse all your arguments with this:

Luk 24:36-43:
"And as they thus spoke, Jesus himself stood in the middle of them, and said to them, Peace be to you. But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. And he said to them, Why are you troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit has not flesh and bones, as you see me have. And when he had thus spoken, he showed them his hands and his feet. And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said to them, Have you here any meat? And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. And he took it, and did eat before them."

What could be more clearer than this?
