Jehovah's Witnesses: Strange & Peculiar Beliefs

[Topperstuxx1]

@joshypyac You are somewhat right...they ARE very educated but all from the watchtower magazines or awake....I say this because I was brought up as a JW and I know exactly how their teaching methods were. As I look at all of these videos that show what JWs taught I really cant say that they are lying or slamming the JWs. I remember when I was a kid that all of these things were actually taught at the kingdom hall. So why do JWs get offended when things like this are posted.?

[joshypyac]

what a dork this guy is nerd freak.

[Topperstuxx1]

My question to all the JWs is....Is what Larry presenting false?  Is he making all this stuff up?

[NxTOxTHExEIGHBOR]

I'm gonna laugh when their are so many begging to a JW's to save them in the end. Jesus gave his life to give us a second chance and majority of the world is so ungrateful. Your doing the same thing that he gave his life for! He isn't going to give it again! I myself as a Jehovah whitness have stayed to gods ways and have done what I can till judgement day. All I'll see is people begging at my knees. I may let a tear out for them if their lucky ;)

[MrZone]

@NxTOxTHExEIGHBOR Salvation is not through being a JW, its only through Jesus Christ.

[TheSelfishAltruist]

My invisible friend will beat up your invisible friend... this religious nonsense makes ashamed to be a human being.

Wake up people, its 2012 - theres no excuse for believing this bs anymore. There is no talking snake, no virgin births, dead people dont come alive... come to reality!

[goobienpapasmom]

So sad the ignorance this person chooses to be. Getting information from people who have come to hate JW's. JW's are the most peaceful people & are not false religion & are the only one doing Jehovahs will & following Jesus footsteps closely, mirroring his ministry. No other religion is doing that. Everything JW's do id BIBLE BASED ONLY. So it's silly that people want to take so much time talking about JW's. JW is world wide & is money is only by donations. Jehovahs has blessed these people

[MrUAV100]

It is the uglier brother of Quentin Tarantino....

[dubvishun]

yes yes..those guys in brooklin interpret scripture for the jws but augustine & john calvin interpret scripture for larry...both are error..& larry suggests for the jws to be open minded & listen..whereas larry has been told over & over & over of his error yet he himself demonstrates his searing,,also larry calls himself christian..thats not so larry is a concerned calvinist..now, lets watch this video of this warm sincere blind pot callin the kettle black...okiedoke.

[dubvishun]

true true..but calvinism has been proved false numerous times also as mormonsim, jws, sda..etc... theres only one true gospel..& jesus taught it..only 2 men ive found to actually teach that message & other than myself & a very few more will listen to them. one guy literally burned his seminary degree once he listened..this guy used to believe just like wessels..just like him..oh & paul washer.etc...

[kts68]

What an idiot! He just can't see the irony of him ridiculing Jehovah's Witnesses for their crazy beliefs and doctrines

Ha Ha

[dorfus71]

This video is PROOF... even a complete idiot can make a YouTube video!!!

[MALACHAI39]

I'd like to know where you believe all the Israelites who died faithful to Jehovah went after they died.

The Bible is inspired of God. 2 Tim3:16 All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching,

Why do you want ppl to get on your mailing list/s so badly? I'm hearing lots of claims with no proof to back it up. Nope, they have to call and get on you mailing list to find this "proof" you have.

THE WORD WAS GOD?

"ton theon" and "ho theos", see the difference? different spelling between the word god and the God.

[BereanBeacon1]

@Mis4el1973 NWT:

I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. Isaiah 66:4

[Mis4el1973]

@BereanBeacon1 Doesnt ur quasi-JW-knowledge stand a confrontation? Its convenient for u to go on and on about u "establishin" truths about us without any IRL-confrontation. U answer me with a bible quote as if that would justify u to judge the JW's? You might want to read Matthew 7:1-5.

I do believe that u "have a zeal for God; but not according to accurate knowledge" (Rom 10:2)

[Mis4el1973]

THE WORD WAS GOD? I have studied this meticulously and it clearly says The Word was A god in koine greek. The thing is that the translaters have DELIBERATELY, YES DELIBERATELY translated it to The Word was God, to fit your false doctrines, and THAT, sir, is a fact!

[Mis4el1973]

1. Trinity wasn't introduced to the christian doctrin until around year 325 by a hedonist emperor Konstantin

2. Christ was never referred to God in the bible. Always the Son of God. Jesus always says "My God" about Jehovah, Jehovah never say "My God" about Jesus.

3. Read the bible, it consequently tells us there's only ONE God.

4. Yes, Michael is a god, but not God Almighty. All angels are lesser gods, even Satan is referred as a "god of this system". (2 Cor 4:4)

[Mis4el1973]

Apropo goin to heaven or not: What was Gods plan from the beginning? He told Adam and Eve to fill the earth with people and live forever on it. We weren't meant to die and go to heaven. We were meant to live forever on a paradise-like earth!

Please tell me who is the "faithful and wise servant"? You?

[Mis4el1973]

You don't hate us, but you don't have any problems with slandering CTR's good name in public? If you're a "concerned christian" why not study the bible with a Jehovahs witness?

What doctrins are you talking about that are a flickering light?? You're quite shallow in yer accusations cuz u never go in depth. I'm sorry, I can't take you seriously. We study the bible in private too so we do think for ourselves, thats why we became JW's in the first place. Youre such a hypocrite!

[eternityandforever]

Jehovah God is the ROCK. Jesus is the ROCK"S Son. Jehovah is the ALMIGHTY. Genesis 17:1,.."I am God Almighty..." Exodus 6:3,"...as God Almighty..." Revelation 16:7,"..Yes, Jehovah God the Almighty..." Jesus is also a god, but spelled with a small "g". He is a MIGHTY God (one time spelled with a big "G"). Isaiah 9:6,..."Mighty God,...Prince of Peace." He's a prince, and his Father is the King forever. John 1:18, "No one has seen God at any time..." John 14:28, "...the Father is greater..

[eduardtube1980]

Thanks for the clarification and noted on your point. So who is the Almighty God in Psalms 83:18?

[dubvishun]

poor ole larry, correct on jws but hasnt cleared his own eyes..in error..with his calvinistic doctrine..nice guy..studied knows the bible hole life of it..yet gonna be freeked out shocked in judgement. wonderful sincere person but numbed..possibly seared..definetely blind. believes in theology read into scripture & he is planted firmly disregarding the horrific danger. whats it called..hmm.. sumpin like "vain worship" so a jw comes out of error only to fall into another. allllriiiiight.

[Lambieschmoo]

@dubvishun Larry has almost 20 years on you. Maybe he knows more than you think

[dubvishun]

@Lambieschmoo what? has that gotta do with shoestrings in china. so if i say camaros are a chevy vehicle ..u then would say "dubvishun, car maufacturers have to know their trade & im sure chevy knows how to build a camaro better than u" ..let me say it again..in other words..HE KNOWS WHAT HES TALKIN ABOUT ON JWS, CATHOLIX, MORMONS ETC.... BUT he is exactly what the bible warns of..ever learning blind never comin to the knowledge..in error hell bound calvie.. gotta tid bit more to say...

[dubvishun]

@Lambieschmoo heres that tid bit im always hesitant posting but now since we're on larry...here we go ill be nice BUT larry is a wonderful very nice sincere person..i know this regardless.. larry is manichesim augustinian calvinistic false reformation mens theology read into scripture..like jesus became sin..or this one i loved the other i hated insanity he will answer for cause he PREACHES & its comin ..hes without excuse nor conviction anylonger. he worshi[ps in vain. God dont play.

[dubvishun]

@Lambieschmoo ive waited a loooong time b4 id finally begin commenting under BereanBeacon theres no reasoning.

standingthegap followed with that o r then the g thats the only truth anywhere yet...calvinism is everywhere mainstream web..on the corner etc...

ill say this again..imma wretch...metal head jammin party rocknroller & i know more truth & less scripture..thats the pitty..i guess i still have ears to hear the bright side is ill have it worse cause i know & dont heed.

bye now

[Lambieschmoo]

Deut 18:20-22 The Lord says, "But any PROPHET who FALSELY CLAIMS TO SPEAK IN MY NAME or who speaks in the name of another god MUST DIE.’ “But you may wonder, ‘HOW WILL WE KNOW WHETHER OR NOT A PROPHECY IS FROM THE LORD?’ If the Prophet speaks in the Lord’s name but HIS PREDICTION DOES NOT HAPPEN OR COME TRUE, YOU WILL KNOW THAT THE LORD DID NOT GIVE THAT MESSAGE. THAT PROPHET HAS SPOKEN WITHOUT MY AUTHORITY AND NEED NOT BE FEARED."

[teflonfanatic]

No matter how good your argument's are the hebrew and greek words for angel mean messenger. Jesus talked for someone else(John 5:30), did God talk for someone else?

[eduardtube1980]

@teflonfanatic Yes, that is true. To answer your question straight, NO, God Jehovah did not talked to for someone else. What is your point?

[teflonfanatic]

@eduardtube1980: It means that the most high(Psalms 83:18 and also the only one in the whole bible that's not false that has that title) never was subject to anyone therefore he is most high by position. Jesus is an angel by hebrew and greek definitions of the word Angel because he spoke for God(messenger). Therefore not the Almighty God,

P.S. Using the nature argument to refute subjection doesn't work because Jesus said God is spirit(John 4:24). Therefore all spirit beings share God's natu

[eduardtube1980]

Now, about the registration of the WT to UN DPI, you may read on this letter randytv com / secret / wt11012001 jpg. This is a circular letter telling us that we the WT withdrew its association to UN for a reason. As written, the membership to DPI was primary to gain LEGAL access to research materials of the UN's worldwide info such as health, ecological and/or social problems. So we can have reliable and legal source of info. FYI.

[eduardtube1980]

That's alright @Lambieschmoo. Like I said, its in the past now and that statement does not really represent what is happening to the organization today. We are united without any racial, social or political distinctions. If I may add, CT Russel's grave has a cross symbol in it. Why? Because they haven't figured out the truth abt that in those times. Now, the light gets brighter with new discoveries and deeper understandings of the scriptures. At least we don't stay in the dark of the past. :)

[Lambieschmoo]

@eduardtube1980 Can you show me in the bible where it says to give false prophets a second or third chance to get it right? Since the Watchtower was wrong in the past about many of its teachings and the light continues to get brighter (Proverbs 4:18), how do you know that the current teachings are correct and won’t change?

[eduardtube1980]

@Lambieschmoo, Jehovah’s Witnesses, in their eagerness for Jesus’ second coming, have suggested dates that turned out to be incorrect. Because of this, some have called them false prophets. Never in these instances, however, did they presume to originate predictions ‘in the name of Jehovah.’ Never did they say, ‘These are the words of Jehovah.’ The Watchtower, the official journal of Jehovah’s Witnesses, has said: “We have not the gift of prophecy.” (January 1883, page 425)

[eduardtube1980]

@Lambieschmoo, “Nor would we have our writings reverenced or regarded as infallible.” (December 15, 1896, page 306) The Watchtower has also said that the fact that some have Jehovah’s spirit “does not mean those now serving as Jehovah’s witnesses are inspired. It does not mean that the writings in this magazine The Watchtower are inspired and infallible and without mistakes.” (May 15, 1947, page 157)

[Lambieschmoo]

@eduardtube1980 PS They had to make up for the 1975 thing

[eduardtube1980]

@Lambieschmoo its really frustrating to expect perfection from imperfect humans. It was not easy for me to accept these mistakes so I did a lot of study on the JWs before I decided to be converted. It just reminds me to live more what Jesus said for us to love our neighbors as we love ourselves. We are commanded to forgive others so that we can also be forgiven. So that His Father Jehovah will hear our prayers. God bless you and your family my dear friend. I pray you be safe, always.

[eduardtube1980]

@Lambieschmoo “The Watchtower does not claim to be inspired in its utterances, nor is it dogmatic.” (August 15, 1950, page 263) “The brothers preparing these publications are not infallible. Their writings are not inspired as are those of Paul and the other Bible writers. (2 Tim. 3:16) And so, at times, it has been necessary, as understanding became clearer, to correct views. (Prov. 4:18)”—February 15, 1981, page 19.

[Lambieschmoo]

@eduardtube1980 So, what would happen if you openly disagreed and questioned an elder on certain points?

[eduardtube1980]

@Lambieschmoo I often ask the Elders and RPs on many points of JW studies and they always give me very satisfactory and convincing answers. They are very honest and I admire them for that. Thank you for asking :)

[Lambieschmoo]

@eduardtube1980 watch?v=FJeppPysNMY&feature=fe­edu posted by a former JW who was in a similar situation. Ask your elders about this and what they would do.

[david42262]

Also, do you think it is wise to base your belief about God on the obviously WRONG assumptions of the Jewish religious leaders in the first century???

Jesus pointed out several times that their beliefs about him were wrong. Jesus NEVER claimed equality with his Father.... The Jews wanted to kill him so they made a false accusation. Jesus corrected them and said that he was NOT EQUAL to his Father but that his Father was greater then Him.....

[david42262]

In what way is Jesus and his Father 'ONE'? Jesus explains:

(John 17:22) Also, I have given them the glory that you have given me, in order that they may be one just as we are one.

Jesus obviously did not mean that his disciples were God, even as he did not mean that he was. The verse clearly says that the disciples, Jesus and God were one.

(1 Corinthians 12:12) For just as the body is one but has many members, and all the members of that body, although being many, are one body

[david42262]

If Jesus is God the is the Bible wrong when it says in 1 John 4:12, and John 1:18 that NO one has ever seen God at anytime?

Do you need to ADD to this scripture to make it fit the trinity? Please read them over and without adding to them please justify your claim that Jesus is God when 1 John4:12 clear says he was not God at ANY time...

[BereanBeacon1]

@david42262 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.

I and my Father are one.

Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.

esus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?

The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God. John 10:27-33

[BereanBeacon1]

Respond to this video...Please consider the following verses. It's a mathematical comparison that the Jews understood. A = My hand. B = Father's hand, C = hand.

A = B =C. Why didn't Jesus tell the Jews is was not God?

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

[CaptainWhitefox]

Okay, as per laffy's request - Isaiah 65:11 &12 as a starting point for the term God'. Also, as regards trinity scriptures go, we aleady know what each other pack in our respective arsenals. We' all know John 1:1 - a definite Vs indefinite article, we all know "Father is greater than I am" pre ascension and "The head of Christ is God" post ascension or the Elohim lunacy etc etc etc. For such a debate to be meaningful what's needed are open minds and less concision - a big ask on both counts.

[CaptainWhitefox]

Let me throw open a question. Something both you lot and JWs share in common is the use of the term 'God'. Where did the term 'god' come from? Apart from modern translations it is nowhere in the OT or NT manuscripts. OT terms for the Creator are Elohim or Eloah or YHWH. The Hebrew 'Gimmel Dalet' (GD) does occur a handfull of times in the OT, but not as you would think. Do you love truth? Then research it.

[CAnswersTV]

@CaptainWhitefox I know "CaptainWhitefox" (a great name for someone who claims to "know" about religion) is saying here to "research" & this is what our ministry has done for the last 30 years. Please check out our 3 websites: BIBLEQUERY ORG (answers 7700 Bible questions), HISTORYCART COM (provides early church history & doctrine), & MUSLIMHOPE COM (refutes the false religion of Islam created by Muhammad, many articles in 9 different languages). See our video IS THE TRINITY TRUE OR NOT? DEBATE.

[laffy]

PEOPLE, PEOPLE, ARGUE WITH SCRIPTURE , U CANT ARGUE CHRISTIAN BELIEFS WITHOUT THE USE OF THE SCRIPTURES, ALL I SEE IS YOUR WRONG, YOUR RIGHT? WITHOUT BIBLE EVIDENCE

[CaptainWhitefox]

Stop saying that you believe the scriptures to be the Creator's means of communicating to humankind. If you believed that then you would not teach such vile doctrine. Your beliefs are base on an admixture of The Egyptian Book of the Dead and fourth century Roman Catholicism. In these documents you will find The Trinity, Immortality of the Soul, and Hellfire! Look at the scriptures you cite. John 5:18? Read verse 19 and that destroys your doctrine. John 1:!? You already know that is inconclusive.

[BereanBeacon1]

@CaptainWhitefox Who are the many? Who are few?

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Matthew 7:13-15

[joeValrico8]

Jesus said clearly you will know them by their fruits! One who is saved will live his life according to Gods rules not his own interpretation of them. the JWs although not perfect seem to be a group who closest live their lives almost 100% Bible based or at least to the best of their imperfect abilities.

[CAnswersTV]

@joeValrico8 I believe you're sincere in what you say but being sincere doesn't make a religious group BIBLICALLY CORRECT. You're right when you say the Jehovah's Witnesses have "imperfect abilities" because they simply do not know the "imperfect abilities" of the fraudulent Watchtower Bible & Tract Society. Your CLAIM that the JWs live "almost 100% Bible based" is false simply because the JW's Bible is FALSE. See "Examining the New World Translation" or "Faulty John 1:1 Translation" on YOUTUBE.

[joeValrico8]

@CAnswersTV so you tell me which religion is 100% infallable? and BTW if you think really Jesus is GOD Jehovah then someone should let Jesus know that he should not be sitting at the right hand of HIS FATHERS, Jehovahs throne but on the throne itself...! Hello??? :) Im not a JW incase you were wondering just a man who reads the bible with a Logical... Holy Spirit helped mind

[CAnswersTV]

@joeValrico8 If you HAD the HOLY SPIRIT (WHO IS GOD, Acts 5:3-4, Matthew 28:19, etc) you would KNOW that Jesus is GOD (John 1:1, 14, John 5:18, 23, John 8:58, 10:30-33, 17:5, 20:28, Hebrews 1:8, Colossians 2:9, & more - see our video on YOUTUBE "Evidence that Jesus is God" with James White & Larry Wessels), get it? Since you DENY that Jesus is God in the flesh (John 8:24-58) you deceive yourself into thinking you have the Spirit (1 Cor 2:14). 2 Peter 3:16 refutes your CLAIM. REPENT & BELIEVE!

[CaptainWhitefox]

@CAnswersTV If the trinity were true than it would have been made abundantly clear in scripture. Under inspiration one of the writers would havecome stariht out and said "The creator became a man" It doesn't! It was his son. the end! A son is not the father. Instead, advocates point to texts that are vague and incoclusive as though having the doctrine and then attempting to find scripture that alludes to it. That's not how it's supposed to be. Stop loving the lie!!!!

[CAnswersTV]

@CaptainWhitefox On another video from this 4 hour JW series entitled, "Jehovah's Witnesses: Questions They Won't Ask & Can Demons Repent?!" you admitted by saying "I don't really know yet what the TRUTH is." This is telling everyone that YOU youself ADMIT that you DON'T KNOW what the truth is & consequently it 's NOT important to listen to ANYTHING YOU have to say. For others who want to know the TRUTH, the TRUTH is JESUS CHRIST (John 14:6). See our Youtube video: EVIDENCE THAT JESUS IS GOD.

[CaptainWhitefox]

@CAnswersTV I feel no shame in saying I don't know who has the truth, if anyone. It frees me up to accept truth as ir presents itself rather than have the tail wagg the dog. If there is a trinity, then why would I care? I don't find the concept in and of itself offensive. I just don't see it as true because I know scripture and theocratic history. BTW read your post and tell me you're not howling at the moon. And lock-caps do not enhance your argument only your ignorance.

[laffy]

@CaptainWhitefox Jesus did say that he was God on many occasions

[egyptian3rdeye]

From 6:30-6:55, "Don't think for yourself, don't question doctrine." Isn't that the assumption of ALL church organizations, be they Catholic, Protestant, etc.?

[Lambieschmoo]

@egyptian3rdeye To a point. The biggest difference that I see is the practice of "shunning" There is a young man who has a video on here who was disfellowshipped. You could see him realizing that he would never see or speak to his mother, siblings and grandmother again. He was 18 years old. There's another young man who sent a letter to his mother. She returned it unopened. You really don't see Catholics and Protestants doing that.

[DONTBELAZYCHECKALL]

YOU WERE VERY POLITE BY SAYING: PUBLISHED BY THIS "MAN".

I WOULD CALLED HIM DEFINITLEY OTHER NAMES.

[Lambieschmoo]

@baadshaah11 Have you talked to bibl3thumper or barbsinclair? Just say hi. They don't bite :)

[eduardtube1980]

@baadshaah11 very true indeed! Jesus NEVER claimed to be the Almighty God, Jehovah.

Read Philippians 2:5,6. :)

[eduardtube1980]

@baadshaah11 - I truly agree with you on this! Not just because I'm one of Jehovah's Witness... its because Jesus is also a "Jehovah's Witness" - Rev. 1:5, John 18:37, Rev 3:14.

Also, its is already expected that people who teach the truth that Jesus tells about Jehovah would be hated by the world. :) John 15:19

[Lambieschmoo]

@baadshaah11 It appears that they're in harmony but there are a lot of ex-jw's on here and they will tell you truth. the vast apostate army dot com

[eduardtube1980]

@Lambieschmoo what is the truth then? would you care to know why they are now ex-jws? :)

[Lambieschmoo]

@eduardtube1980 Many left of their own accord after finding out.

If you watch all of Larry's videos, google Larry Wessels, you'll find the truth.

[eduardtube1980]

@Lambieschmoo I'm 30yo & baptized for just about a year today. I studied the bible for more than 20 years and did not decide to become a Jehovah's Witness until ALL my questions has been answered. Till now I still keep on asking questions. I am a very open-minded person because it is the TRUTH about God and His purpose for us are always on the top of my mind. And here is one organization that NEVER fails that expectation. We welcome you to know us better if you have an OPEN HEART for the truth.

[Lambieschmoo]

@eduardtube1980 Great! As long as all children are safe in every way shape and form do what you will.

I have studied the Bible for a lot longer than that. Please be so kind as to show me the scriptural evidence that there is no hell. Thank you :)

[eduardtube1980]

Hi @Lambieschmoo, its good to know that you've been studying the Bible for quite sometime already. Yes, there is a thing called Hell in the Bible. Its Sheol in Hebrew and Hades in Greek. In our bible study, it appeared that its NOT what I knew it was. That its a place of eternal torment for the wicked ones. It is clearly the common grave of mankind. Where both righteous and wicked are going. Even Jesus went there when he died. Read Acts 2:31 KJV. Why did you asked?

[Lambieschmoo]

@eduardtube1980 I was just curious because no matter what one's faith is, everyone has their own opinion about hell. My sainted Bible-believing mother refuses to believe in it.

So, just out of curiosity, when armeggedon comes and you and I and my mother are walking down the street, Jesus will smite my mom and me but you won't go to hell because you are a Witness and will continue to live on earth. Do I have that correct?

[eduardtube1980]

Hi @Lambieschmoo, that is not what we have in mind. It is for Jesus and Jehovah to judge us on what we do when Armageddon comes. However, we do believe that doing the works that pleases Jehovah is what will give us THE CHANCE FOR SALVATION. That is according to what Jesus said in Matthew 7:21 "Not everyone who says to Me, "Lord, Lord," shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven."

[eduardtube1980]

@Lambieschmoo, and just complete my point, you can read the will of Jehovah on 1 Timothy 2:3-4. "3This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires ALL MEN to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth."

The truth that there is one God, Jehovah, and one Son of God, Jesus Christ.

John 17:3 - 3"This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, AND Jesus Christ whom You have sent."

[Lambieschmoo]

@eduardtube1980 " However, we do believe that doing the works that pleases Jehovah is what will give us THE CHANCE FOR SALVATION"

How would you interpret these scriptures:

John 3:17,18 "For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him ( our part ) is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

cont

[eduardtube1980]

Hi @Lambieschmoo, yes, believing in Jesus is a VERY IMPORTANT aspect of Salvation. Believing that God sent his Son to bring this message to the world, that he has a Father, and God that is Jehovah. We believe in both the Father and the Son. Being a Christian means following the examples of Jesus Christ (not just believing it) that is, to preach the good news to all the nations, to all human beings. Matthew 24:14. Loving all people, like ourselves, including our enemies. :)

[Lambieschmoo]

Hi @eduardtube1980 My friend, it is with love, joy and compassion that I share the Good News with you.

Eph 2: 8-9 clearly states that there is nothing that we can do, except have faith, to have a "chance for salvation."

We who believe in the sacrifice of Jesus have everlasting life John 3:16

It has nothing to do with men in Brooklyn Acts 4:12

Again, Eph 2:8-9 It has nothing to do with the clothes we wear or knocking on doors or hair on our faces.

It is a gift freely given :)

[eduardtube1980]

Hi @Lambieschmoo, all true Christians should know what Jesus said in Matthew 28:19 to "Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations...". His faithful disciple Paul later wrote in Acts 20:20 that "You know that I have not hesitated to preach anything that would be helpful to you but have taught you publicly and from house to house..." Its just sad that some people who claim to be Christiams" don't realize how important this commandment is to Jesus and his Father. God Bless!

[Lambieschmoo]

Hi @eduardtube1980 It's just sad that some don't realize that it's not a requirement for salvation

[eduardtube1980]

@Lambieschmoo, I see no contradictions on our statements. Your point is that we MUST have faith in Jesus, yes, we surely have that from the beginning. :) What the Bible clearly tells us is that to attain eternal life, we must know, not only Jesus Christ, but ALSO his Father, Jehovah. John 17:3 "Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the ONLY TRUE GOD, AND Jesus Christ, whom you have sent." . People just don't like to do what Jesus & his disciples did preaching good news fr house 2 house.

[Lambieschmoo]

Hi @eduardtube1980 Phooey! He made it clear that we are to spend our time taking care of one another, helping the elderly, poor, prisoners, not literally go door to door like a salesman and have to account for it to an elder. It's a ponzi scheme, a pyramid scheme. Your neighbor needs your help and you are ignoring him to please your kingdom hall

Hi @Lambieschmoo, God's will, as written on Matthew 24:14 can be read "This Good News of the Kingdom "WILL BE PREACHED in the WHOLE WORLD" for a "testimony to ALL THE NATIONS", and THEN the end will come." [WEB] It is an account that we held, not on our Elders, but to Jehovah Himself. Just having faith in Jesus is NEVER enough. Matthew 7:21 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but ONLY HE WHO DOES THE WILL of my Father who is in heaven".

and also, this door-to-door preaching activity, "like a salesman", "pyramid scheme" as you said, is what Jesus and his disciples did from the start of the Christian era to go on and "make disciples" Matthew 28:19, Acts 20:20. This is what the JWs continue to do until today. Many people don't like what they did (its sad that your one of them) and that is what we also expect to happen to us. John 15:20 'No servant is greater than his master.'

@eduardtube1980 I never said that I disliked what Jesus and His apostles did.

Did you know:Jehovah's Witnesses teach that the League of Nations and the United Nations were set up as a counterfeit of God's Kingdom.

The Watchtower Society became an Associate member of the United Nations Department of Public Information (UN/DPI) in February 1992 and maintained this membership until October 2001?

Sure Jesus and His disciples did not have magazines during that time, what they had was copies of the Bible scrolls, and they were written in Hebrew or Greek or Aramaic languages. Can u read and understand any of these? Our world-wide preaching work was made possible because translations were done in many native languages that people will know the true message of the Bible. To tell them that Jesus was here to proclaim his Father's name. John 17:26.

[eduardtube1980]

and if your connotation of a "salesman" is what you call the JWs, fortunately, we're not. Our magazines are freely given to people who really wants them. Its up to them to give us donations or not. Our world-wide work is supported by voluntary donations. Jesus and his disciples did not walked the earth, preaching to people without people donating their kind to them. They need resources to support themselves for their basic needs. Same with us. Because the truth is more important than money.

@eduardtube1980 Some history watch?v=GEohaJ-K8OQ&feature=fe­edf

[eduardtube1980]

@Lambieschmoo that doesn't matter to us now. When you were born, did you know everything already? Even today, can you say to God, absolutely, that you know all everything about the Bible? Nobody does. "Proverbs 4:18" The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining ever brighter till the full light of day."

[Lambieschmoo]

Hi@eduardtube1980 If an organization truly belongs to Jehovah would it ever make this statement?

Zion's Watch Tower, July 15, 1902:215-216: "While it is true that the white race exhibits some qualities of superiority over any other, ..."

So even though we are fearfully and wonderously made, some are superior?

I want NOTHING to do with an organization that would make such a vile statement. I speak of the org itself and not its members

[Lambieschmoo]

I can't stop watching this

[celal777]

@celal777 This video was done along time ago. Plus, I love the vintage action

[bobbit3]

The founder of this religion was a high level freemason, lived as a mason and was buried a mason. This religion is masonic and related to the occult teaching and practices of masons, theosophy and the like. The god of freemasons is Lucifer, as it is stated in their own books..

[Stinger2578]

@bobbit3 Interesting you mention freemasons as from what I have heard several times both Robert Schuler and even Rev. Billy Graham were also members of that particular group.

This is most notable due to the video of Mr. Graham making the statement that Jesus Christ isn't the only way. How many people who were following him continue to follow him in that sentiment?

[bobbit3]

@Stinger2578 I have heard the same thing. We must be aware of the ways of the adversary. The god of this world controls all high religious intstitutions because they are his (read Pagan Chrisitianity). This does not mean God does not have people in these institutions. However, many of the leaders are lucifarians. Anyone who is tapped for the 33 degree in the freemasons falls in this catagory.

[southerngent253]

@Stinger2578 I am not Baptist but I researched your accusations about Graham. All reports of him be a Mason have been discredited. Graham denies such charges. His ministry threatened to sue if false reports weren't corrected. Graham won.

[Stinger2578]

@southerngent253 Whether he is a freemason or not does not change the fact of the video with the statements he made that contradicted the ideas he's most admired for. I made no accusations that had not already been previously made, which I'm sure were based on the aforementioned video interview he had with Robert Schuler.
