How would you know my relationship with Jesus? That's a bit rude isn't it? Exactly how do you think God speaks to you? You say through the spirit. How? Do your hear his voice? Is it like you can actually hear him like if it was some person speaking to you? If you think I don't have a relationship with God or Jesus then you are sadly mistaken. Look, I was here to invite you to understand a bit more of what the Bible really teaches. I don't want an argument because it is pointless and usually ends up with someone getting hurt or upset. As a true Christian, I never want to do this because Jesus never aimed at doing this. I will keep following in the footsteps of Jesus as we are meant to do, going door to door and talking about the wonderful promises that Jehovah his father has promised us. When I say us, I mean all of us that have a listening ear and a heart that is willing to repent and turn their life around, clothe themselves with the new personality and help fulfil the prophecy in Matthew 24:14. You can respond to this if you feel the need to, but I will understand if you choose not to. It's all up to you. I can only hope that we can have a discussion about these things without any cause for attack. Col
I am sorry if it comes across as an attack, but this is spiritual warefare. Jesus would tell the pharisees the truth and He would hit them were they were false all the time. I am only saying the things I have because I do have love for both you and anyone who reads these things. I doubt anyone would stand there and let someone tell your children something that wasn't true now would you? Now not only do I find much of what you say not true, but twisting the Word of God (unwittingly) to fit another purpose, Paul warned strongly against false doctrine, and brother, you have allowed yourself to be fully enveloped in a false doctrine, one that claims Jesus is not the Son of God, the Alpha, the Omega, the one who called Himself "I am" The Bible really does teach that Jesus died on a cross, that he was in a tomb, rose again physically and appeared to many for 40 days in the flesh. Look at the accounts, he had a physical body and was taken up. He was completely a man physically, He was tempted; He did not fail and was perfect. He also had power; He rose a man from the dead, He healed lepers, by His name many were healed including healing my carpol tunnel syndrome. He died for my sins that I committed and for the sins of everyone who accepts this gift. His death paid the price I could not. I could not do enough "good deads" to earn a place in heaven. Angels worship Jesus in Heaven and He is higher than any angel could ever be.
Couldn't agree more If you accept all that is good then you will find God sooner or later. If you accept all that is evil then God will find you sooner or later. As always you have to choose what's right for you
Firstly, where did you get the idea that I said or Jehovah's Witnesses believe that Jesus is not the son of God? I have never said that and neither have Jehovah's Witnesses. I am sorry but that is a preposterous statement. As far as the other stuff you said goes. Whatever! Hope you have fun in your life however short that may be. I know the path that I am on and I hope one day that you find that path. Col
Is Jesus the Son of God or is He the Achangel Michael? (He isn't both) Whatever? That is your response? You need to question authority, not saying in a disrepectful way, but to question them, if they can't answer, then something is wrong - or if you are viewed as being in the wrong for asking questions, then you are in a cult.
What makes you think he is not one and the same? Jesus was his name when he was placed in Mary's womb and was brought up as a perfect man. Michael is his name as the only archangel in the spiritual realm. He goes by other names as well. Shilo for instance. If they are not one and the same then who are they? When the apostles and the prophets spoke of these names, who were they referring to? Take it all in to context my friend. Do some more reading. Why would I have the need to ask these questions when I already know the answers from the Bible? Who is this authority that you speak of? Our organization does not have an authority. We are all imperfect humans. Our spiritual leaders are doing the very same work that I do, which is go door to door and preaching thew good news of the kingdom. There was a story not long ago about one man in the street just a couple of steets away from the Watchtower building in New York. This man was standing next to another man at a bus stop. This man could see the Watchtower building from where he was standing and he turned to the man next to him and said to him "You know the guy that runs that place has probably got a flash car and rolling in money". "The other man replied, you know where this bus goes?" He nodded. They got on the bus. The next stop was outside the Watchtower building. The other man got off, but before he did so, he turned to the man and said "I'm one of those guys up there that run the place, I'm on this bus, and there's my broken down old Volkswagen in the car park" and just smiled. You are making some incredible statements about us my friend but where is the proof behind such statements? You have not provided an ounce of it. I would love to see where you got the inclination that our organization is a publishing business that lives on its profits. I think you would go insane trying to find evidence there! I have hope for you my friend. But that's all I can offer you. I have tried to reason with you, but you don't want to listen. That's OK. There are many that won't and Jesus told us that will be so. The only thing I can say from this point is maybe, just maybe, you will have the courage to talk face to face with any of our people and find out what is real about us. One thing - A cult is a closed sect (dictionary definition). We are most certainly not closed in any way. We welcome all people to join us in praising and serving God. Col
Used to be an Atheist, but I didn't hate religion. These time I am wondering about the existence of soul.
