Do Jehovah's Witnesses Have the Only True Religion (page 3)

OK Theocrat.

Come clean now.

Be a good boy and tell everyone you're fooling with them. You're getting the good people here all riled up.

Information overload! Too many questions to field all at once. First, put aside whatever might have happened in your home congregation that made you bitter toward the whole organization. On the matter of disfellowshipping, it is certainly the scriptural obligation of the congregation to remove ones who are willful and unrepenant sinners. Paul spoke extensively about this in his letter to the Thessalonians. Does this contradict Jesus' vibe of charity and forgiveness and the parable of the Prodigal Son? No, because Jesus is the one that accepted Paul to accomplish the ministry that he did, which includes his letters. Plus, according to Hebrews 10, for the person that continues to sin upon having knowledge of that sin, "there is no sacrafice for sin left for that person". So, principally, one could say that Jesus makes the disfellowshipping arrangment MORE THAN NECESSARY.

Did not the Apostle Paul say - Keep checking you are in the faith -- but if you check and question you will be disfellwoshipped for Apostasy?

How is that Christian or in the scriptures - -I would love to know - Honest

That is one of the most hateful statements I have ever heard a Jehovah's witness say. Jesus ate with sinners.

Tell that to all the abuse victims on this board. They're not all from one congregation, they're from all over the world.

If you want to take each question or response one at a time, why not start with the first response to your questions? Explain the WTS position of why they became an NGO of the UN? Yep, that's right. The United Nations. The Wild Beast of Revelation. The Wild Beast that the harlot rode on the back of. The harlot being Babylon the Great. Babylon the Great that will be destroyed for riding on the back of this Wild Beast. Why should the WTS not share with her in her sins?

Friend, the Lord's work is SERIOUS BUSINESS. Jesus wasted no time exposing the crooked religious leaders of his day, or warning against the disease of apostasy that would creep into the Christian congregation. He ate with sinners that knew no better. But once properly evangelized, Christians were told to, "keep this same mental attitude" and to keep putting on the "new personality".

Yes, Paul said to "keep testing". He didn't say "keep questioning the spirit-annointed leadership". He also said, "bring every thought into captivity and make it obedient to the Christ". Why? Because our thinking has to be constantly cleansed and tested...to make sure that our thinking is in line with God's.

Theo. You change IP addresses, faster than I change my lipstick.

Ohhh. I get it! You are supposed to stupidly follow an organization without asking questions.
