by Fisherman in

“who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?” — math 24:45. according to jw, the faithful and discreet slave are the “anointed” men of the “governing body” of the jehovah’s witnesses religion..

Can I then beat you mercilessly

You can believe what you like. The Bible is a standard: God is good by definition and not compared to your beliefs. True, many things in the Bible agree with our senses but when your senses or beliefs or standards conflict the Bible, too bad, the Bible is still the standard for Christians. Again, have whatever views you like.

Some people may not like secular laws or ordinances legislated by lawmakers, too bad, it is the law. Also, according to your feelings you may not like the Bible standards, too bad.

JW's are the SAME as other Christians....

by BoogerMan in

...they condemn/attack those whose beliefs/opinions/interpretations of scriptures differ from theirs.. various scriptures reveal to christians that the judging of mankind will be done by christ jesus: .

john 5:22,28,29, acts 10:42, acts 17:31, romans 14:9, 2 cor.

5:10, 2 tim.

No, the “attack” is on beliefs not on people.

Do you believe that this life is all there is

by Fisherman in

the bible records resurrections and there is orher evidence besides that gives hope.

what do you think, is there enough evidence to believe in another life?.

Fisherman

They were dead. And came back to life.

Besides the Bible, other evidence comes directly from God.

No proof = No faith.

What Name Does the New Testament Emphasize - Jehovah or Jesus?

by Vanderhoven7 in

it seems to me scripturally speaking, that jehovah's witnesses are emphasizing the wrong name.. it should be jesus, not jehovah.

who is the way, the truth and the life?

(john 14:6).

Fisherman

Obviously, the NT is about the fulfillment of Bible prophecy of the Messiah, Jesus. But it was the Great Jehovah that fulfilled prophecy by providing Jesus.

Amazing how they take a helpful parable and make it about themselves.

Remember how Jesus told Peter to feed his sheep and Jesus wasn’t only referring to Peter. Who else do you think fit the bill today if not JW, the churches of christendom and their trinity doctrines and political consorts?

Van, I'm-sure the gb was displeased and offended with the attention but appreciate the well meaning behind it and went along so as not to hurt the feelings of the friends You akso have to factor in tge local customs. But we don’t have all of the facts here so as to form an opinion.

Given all of the facts, I will say of brother NHK that that inspite of well intentions here, he would have walked away and not accepted the attention and would have rebuked the elders privately, unless it is just a local custom of greeting guests. But these gb in the vid don’t need or want any special treatment either, I believe.

Comparing anything to a slave as being a good thing is anything but a blessing.

Bible trumps your opinion. —As it relates to the Bible.

Slavery is an awful thing.

FD S: The Biblical implication is Holy Spirit (work). —Which is a blessing!

Jehovah is mentioned at a JW meeting from opening prayer to closing prayer & in between would be from 200 to 250 times

He is worshipped.
