I'm not a believer cos someone told me about Jesus or trinity....

I had a personal encounter with thy Lord JESUS in 2010....I was just 15+

JESUS IS REAL and HE'S GOOD ....

Starz825:


the father, the son and the Holy spirit is one person playing diff roles

just as a man...
you play the role of a brother to your siblings , son to your parent, hubby to ur wife, father to your children, a provider to family...you are the same person but diff roles...all for a reason...to be responsible!

God is a responsible entity ...he has the power to by pass protocols bt he likes to follow due process....

You are confusing yourself bro. Because what then did Jesus mean when he said, "I am the way, the truth and the life and no one will go unto God except through me". He didn't call himself a faction of God, he was merely a way to get to God.

Jehovah Witness worship the Jewish god, YHW and do not subscribe to Jesus being a god.

They do not pray in the name of Jesus .

They are reformed Jews as far as I am concerned.

Good question grin

They also don't celebrate birthday parties because it's worldly but consume alcohol, bear, booze and all sorts of highness grin

We may need to be more introspective......not celebrating birthdays is not abnormal, is it.....?
I could remember the smell of Christmas as a kid....but right now and for a while, I don't see anything to it.

They don't believe in the holy spirit as a person,
They claimed the word is "IT" (instead of "HE" )claimed the holy spirit was a or is a force (correct me please if I am wrong) .

However christ himself talking about the Holy Spirit said John 16:13-15
[13]However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.
[14]He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you.
[15]All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you.

Christ called him "HE" he didn't call it "IT".
But if you have "HE" translated in your bible as "IT" What will be your excuse for doing that?

Romans 8:16,26 spirit ITSELF. KJV.


Greek Paracletos (Advocate) is a masculine noun.
Jesus Christ personified holy spirit as 'Paracletos because Paracletos is masculine,HE in Greek.
The same manner Jesus personified Wisdom as having children.

Jesus Christ says holy spirit is God's finger, In Luke and Matthew's gospel.

Is your finger a person?
God has eyes,hands/finger.
God's finger, eyes,ears can not be a person.

John 20:22, Jesus breathed holy spirit into the disciples.
Did Jesus breath a person into them?

Una too like FALSEHOOD jare. grin

They have been taught by Watchtower to Hate Christian Gospel Songs. They are taught to stay away from other Denominations, not to accept invitations from other Churches and and reject anything coming from them.This should tell you something is inherently wrong with the religion. Gospel songs are praises to Almighty God and Jesus. How can you hate that? It shows they are not Christians. They reject everything coming from other churches yet they are outside everyday Preaching to people to give those their Heretic books to people. They want you to accept their books and come to their Kingdom Hall. And they wonder why they get rejected when they go out to preach. They have never sat down to think about why people reject them. Because of the high rejection rate, they were told not to identify themselves as Jehovah's witnesses when they go to preach but instead say they are Your Christian friends thinking that will help. Still, they get rejected.

1 John 5:7,9
[7]For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one.
[9]If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is the witness of God which He has testified of His Son.

The Bible said the three are one, then why have you chosen not to believe what the Bible said?
The holy spirit himself had also called himself "third person of the God head" in a testimony of a convert from islam
No sane Muslim will say that the Holy Spirit called himself God in Islam cuz the verse you're referring too is in surah 4 verse 171 and surah 5 verse 73 and 116.
Please stop lying 🤥

Christian songs are sang as an expression of worship to God. Worship to God must be in truth. If worship song does not align with bible teachings, then it should not be used.

Secular songs are not songs for worshipping God. They associate with other things. Still JWs
are expected to select which secular songs they sing as some may be promoting immorality, rituals etc.

Would you sing songs that African traditional religion sings because they said it is song of worship to God Almighty too?

I noticed that the jehova witnesses around me usually feel uncomfortable when a christian song is been played but they are quick to dance and sing along to secular (even ungodly ) songs.
They seems not to like hearing a christian sermon but would prefer to listen to sermons from other faith (islam)

Now the question is - why do these people react this way but chose to be more positive to unchristian subject rather than christian subject of which they are already familiar with.
It is also a wonder that these people Choose not to be identified as Christians (please if I'm wrong with this assertions you can correct me)
I think these organizations need to be studied very well to see why they Choose to be the way they are (their doctrines, and differences in scriptures)

If you know anything about this group called jehova witnesses, or had experienced some of their reactions, please share so that the church and general public can know more about them and their beliefs without castigasting anyone.

its simply because you and Jws are jokers.....
While people are trying to solve problems raving humanity and getting results,u lots have decided to be unfortunate by arguing about what doesn't make sense. Who cares about what the next person sings?

Did you even look up the John Gill commentary, it wasn't implied that Jesus is the created archangel Michael but an eternal one, signifying with the name Michael meaning "who is as God".
You guys believe that Michael the Archangel is literally Christ.
But Michael the Archangel is a type of Christ and not Jesus Himself. Jesus wasn't Created.

Like Jesus was rejected when he called himself, not God but the son of God. The difference back then and now is understanding what the bible really teaches.

Michael Jackson was a Jehovah witness

Who did not dance to his songs? grin

Just playing, the people around you probably may not like the songs you are playing because they are not catchy

Gospel music is not a specific genre. Just like people like rock music and others like pop music, the people around you may not resonate with your type of gospel music

Perhaps if you played gospel music laced with rock or hip hop, they may flow with you. If you played jazz gospel music, (just instrumentals), they could also flow with you.




You LIE or Maybe you don't have Jehovah Witnesses as Friends!😏😒

They do NOT listen to Gospel Music no Matter the Beat or Lyrical Content!
Sinach, Nathaniel Bassey, Moses Bliss,etc are CANCELLED by them. 😔😌

Same Way they do NOT listen to Christian Motivational Messages
From Apostle Johnson Suleiman, Joshua Selman, Sam Adeyemi, etc.😒

For them, ONLY their Way is Correct and Other Church DENOMINATIONS are on the WRONG path! 😏😕

and what did john 1 vs 1-10 says

in the beginning was the word and the word with God and the word was God....and nothing was ever made that was made without the word....

God is the father., the speaker of the word....the word spoken is JESUS....

JESUS being the way the truth the life....literally means God's word is the way the truth the life....

There is a living God in Christ JESUS.

people will hold you responsible for your words..cos you and the word of your mouth is one......the words of your mouth reps your identity....

while the Holy Spirit of God is here to sustain the works of the word (JESUS) ....so it doesn't become a waste....

JESUS (the word) said himself that the holy spirit will remind us of all what was donetm and spoken...
