So disfeloshping does not make one an apostate as they want u believe. However, what is wrong with his sentiments?

[@lumaimubanga9253]

@@classickruzer1 good to hear from you. Apparently, WT has unscriptural doctrines too. First of all, why do they disfellowship people who voluntarily leave the faith? If a witness gets a blood transfusion, votes in an election, or goes into another church building apart from a KH for a relative's wedding or funeral, why do they disfellowship them? did Jesus disfellowship anyone? what did he say about that adulterous woman? why follow pauls letters than Christ's admonitions? If u are not aware of it, read the secret book "shepherd the flock of God" which is only available to elders. Secondly, where in the bible do we find the phrase "Governing body"? thirdly, the so-called worldly courts allow people to listen to the court processing, but why is it that the judicial committee is secret and no one from the congregation attends when Jesus said the congregation shud be involved? thirdly, why does WT keep changing doctrines? if a doctrine changes meaning, can we say the previous understanding was a lie? Does God give HALF truths which he clarifies later in the name of "new light"? is that not being swept by every wind of doctrine as is mentioned in Ephesians? Fourth, are you still using reasoning from scriptures, Daniel's book, revelations book/ If not why? Why have u been asked to burn them? Does it mean the truth has lost its value because all those were lies? what kind of truth changes? I HAVE ALOT TO ASK YOU BUT FIRST ANSWER ME.

I’ll be sure to make that clarification next time for followers, members of a cult like you with no ability to think for oneself. No denomination has it perfect. Personal relationship with God is all we need. Not a group run by men telling us what to think. You JW’s spend more time reading material written by your Illuminati captors than reading scripture. I know how much time you spend pouring over the watchtower pamphlets which are now all online. I think the cult is trying to save some trees.

[@mbtofnj9180]

you are correct about how JW's view Jesus. I have a Christian friend who ALWAYS referred to Jesus as my Lord and master.I asked why I never heard JW say this. when I studied more I noticed that the apostles preached Christ, they said they suffered for Christ. again it is always suffering for Jehovah. or Hebrew 12 2 where it said to keep your eyes focused on Jesus. but the WT article said keep your eyes focused on Jehovah. when I asked this question why would the inspired apostle paul tell us to focus on Jesus and the uninspired GB tell us differently? not a good question for elders to hear. God bless

[@mbtofnj9180]

this is one of many reasons they don't want you to look outside its teachings. I always said I don't want to be deceived. so I research all sides as to know why they believe what they believe. but it was clear once I saw the scripture if it does not come true I did not send you. but the JW say Jesus chose them, going against what he warned us about. or the teaching we must trust completely the slave when the Bible clearly list 8 scriptures not to trust any human. again going against the council God has given us.I feel the more you know your bible the better you can defend it. I listen and watch every video I can, I take notes of applications I never heard before. another one is the WT says its ok to lie. the reason given is to protect the ministry. theocratic warfare. they use Abraham, rehab , and the midwives as examples. they said God bless them for liying to protect the ministry. this was false. the bible actually said because of their faith they were blessed. when one lies. they look to lie for protection. if they tell the truth they feel they will be punished. so run to satan's for protection instead of running to the Father for protection as a tower of truth / protection. if you lied for doing something wrong then you reap what you sow. you still can ask for mercy from the Father. Abraham feared the king so he lied even though the Father PROMISED Abraham the blessing. so actually Abraham could have walked up to the king and say she is my wife and relied on the promise but he was in fear. did Jesus say to Peter good job for lying 3 times. the WT does not give this as an example

Well who created Jesus not the Mighty God . Who you going to serve The Mighty God or the Almighty. Jesus never said he was a God .But the Mighty God said he send his Son. Not to be Praised but to show us the way to the narrow Road that lead to the Everlasting God. All Honor Belongs to the Mighty Creator who. Made Heaven and the Earth.

And everybody talking about Paul said this and that But Paul was not recognised in the Bible in the Old Testament . Why not talk about John the Baptizer who was preaching the Kingdom of The Mighty God long before Jesus was send to Earth. He never murdered Persecuted and. Seek out Christians and put them to the Slaughter . John the Baptizer did more than this man they. Giving. Praise. by the name of Paul.When John the Baptizer Baptized Jesus .and was send to Prison . Portifer. had him beheaded. Jesus did not even visited him in the Prison. Because Jesus knew he was the next one being hunted .

After your 40 years as an elder, I may have much prayer and many years of patience ahead for my brother, an elder for 10 years. I've just started a "bible study" with witnesses. Coincidentally, it began with the boast that Jehovah's witnesses are the only organization that has successfully downplayed Jesus as opposed to false religions that "keep talking about Jesus, Jesus, Jesus..." There IS a purposeful objective to excise Jesus from scripture. We are just starting the "bible teach" book. Thank you for the entirety of your video, that I can, in real time, incorporate into the study. I pray for your continued strength, beyond what is normal, in light of your recent (most despicable) ordeal. Many thanks.🌿 PS.

There is much to learn in reading the Bible and discussions. But you must realize the study books are designed to teach man's doctrine along with Bible teaching. Be careful because they baptism is on believing that their organization is the ONLY organization backed by God. True Christian's dedication has never changed, " Babtism in name of father, son, and holy ghost(spirit). The organization ask babtism questions which are not in line with JC teachings on babtism. They have an organization book (another book) that list their questions. And if you are babtised, and you realize that one of their teaching is not scriptural and you voice your findings. They will disfellowship you where no one that claims to be a JW will talk to you, or have any dealing with you because you are now branded as an apostate, because you do not follow THEIR TEACHINGS. Best to never get babtised if you like their company or their meetings. Just know what you're getting into.

But if it’s 1914 we need thousands of years to pass for last days to be true if 2520 years is true if the day for year and time isn’t what think mentality.” I got a call from an old family friend in bethel to see if I was alright.

That is what the Organization assumes, but a careful read of the vision indicates that the wheels moved, not the platform.

Thank you, Eric, for your answering my questions about true worship. I was wondering about Abel and if God didn't see his soul after Cain killed him why didn't God see his form up in heaven with him? (Genesis 4:8-10) It shows that God's curse on mankind was death and not heaven or hell. (Genesis 3:17-19)

Doesn't the Bible say in Revelation 6:9-10...that Abels soul was under the altar...along with all the others that were slain?

Thank you Eric. I have been pondering "Exegesis vs Eisegesis" and came up with a likely 3rd method of interpretation, or at least a subdivision of Eisegesis! Exegesis vs Eisegesis vs Egotistical. This third approach, Egotistical, seems to be used most often by the GB who imagine that everything is all about them! And that's being polite! They say they are the only way to Christ. Tell that to Saul, who became the Apostle Paul.

Thank you Eric for all your hard work, it is appreciated. Revelation 12:1 starts with a sgin in heaven ( just the same as when Jesus was born ) if you googal, or go on KZbin rev 12:1 and the sgin in heaven, you will see when Michelle hurls the dragon down, this is when Daniel 12:1 starts to be fulfilled, As some prof for you , in Daniel 11:40 onward it descuses the time of the end , when they enter the land ( that is the promised land if you look at a map of the land God gave them in the beginning you will find it covers a vast area , 2 of the country's are Libya and Egypt. in Daniel 11 :42-42 we have seen them invade and kill the Libyan leader gidaffe, we also saw in the spring up rising in Egypt, were all the Egyptians when on the streets with all the tanks, ending in the president being thrown in jail ( all in fulfilment of Daniel 11:40 onward , just after is the time Michael stands up to protect Gods people against the enemie the devil the same s Rev 12 . All the evidence is compelling . Good news for all Christians . Thanks again Eric

Stephen said : Jesus, receive my spirit! And John ends Apocalipsis by saying : yes, come, Lord Jesus. So, after his resurrection and ascension to the Heavens , Jesuchrist is still called “ Jesus” by an already old Apostle John and by Stephen.

In the old purple Greek Interlinear put out by the WT Society, Romans 10:13 says "all those who call on the name of Jehovah will be saved... on the left side of the page, is the Greek "Kyrios" translated "Lord". On the right their translation is "Jehovah". They taught us that Jehovah's name is ALWAYS written "LORD" And for Jesus it is ALWAYS written "Lord". Therefore we should have been translating it "All those calling on the name of JESUS will be saved." Another lie right under our noses!! About 9 years ago I walked away after 35 years as a Jehovah's Witness.

Excellent job

[@MsJfraser]

The concept of God being triune was discarded by Charles Russell from the beginning. Joseph Rutherford took it a step further removing all deity from Jesus and demoting him to more of a servant than a king. Considering that both Russell and Rutherford had failed predictions to justify, should they have been taken seriously as being servants of Jesus? 1975 also presents the same problem with the current leadership. How does one justify a failure by not blaming God? Scripturally, they would be out of a job overnight. Cheers

Excellent scriptural reasoning brother Eric in regards to whether Michael was Jesus before his human time here on earth. In regards to when satan was cast down it also makes sense that he and his demons might have been cast down around 33C.E. the only thing i might question is the book of Revelation is written for in the Lords day. Did the Lords day begin in the 1st century? Who’s to say. It does make more sense that things would have started back then as why would war in heaven wait another 2,000 years to start up? Revelation has always been a tough read for me in regards to understanding it but it ends well 🙂

Actually, at first Chronicles 28:18 it says " He also gave the weight for the refined gold for the incense altar and for the representation of the chariot, namely the cherubs of gold that spread their wings out and overshadow the ark of the covenant of Jehovah."

[@BeroeanPickets]

Have you mistakenly commented on a different video, because I don't see the relevance to what is being discussed here?

[@BeroeanPickets]

However, if you're making the point that God rides in a chariot, please consider the relevance of what Benson Commentary says about 1 Chronicles 28:18. Benson Commentary 1 Chronicles 28:18. For the altar of incense reigned gold - Purer than any of the rest. For that was typical of the intercession of Christ, than which nothing can be more pure and perfect. The chariot of the cherubim - Which Solomon was to make, (for those which were fastened to the mercy-seat were made by Moses long before,) which he fitly compares to a chariot, because within them God is said to sit and to dwell. And because a chariot is made to carry a person from place to place, this expression may be used to intimate, that God was not so fixed to them by the building of this temple, but that he would remove from them if they forsook him. Covered the ark - Not above it, for that was done by Moses’s cherubim, but before it, to keep it from the eyes of the high-priest, when he entered into the most holy place.

@@BeroeanPickets I meant to comment on this video. You showed a picture of Jehovah's Earthly organization that also showed Jehovah on his chariot and said that chariot wasn't mentioned in Ezekiel or anywhere in the Bible.

[@matthewlunsford5684]

I am very happy you are encouraging private interpretation of the Bible as it should be. Jehovah uses holy spirit and his word to direct us as individuals to discover truth so we can have a close relationship with our father. Here is another interesting point Luke 10:18 After the disciples reported their success in casting out demons In Jesus’ name, Jesus said that he had already seen Satan fallen like lightning from heaven. Does this indicate that Jesus was referring to a future event or that Satan has already been cast by Michael the archangel. Please tell me your thoughts, i am eager to hear. Thank you.

The one who was especially fond of humans....Who do you think Yahweh’s was talking to when He said...Let us. Make man in our Image, in our Likeness.. Yahweh was talking to His Son Michael...Michael has only been known as Jesus for 2000 yrs. Michael is his original Name Given to to him at the Day of his creation....Yahweh’s ....Psalms 83v18 and is Only Begotten Son Michael The master worker, brought everything else into existence...The Angels..The Universe and all living things on Earth...Now it is your right to believe anything you like.. But I wish to give all glory ONLY to YHWH.. and bend my knee in Honour to His Son The Lord Jesus Christ..King of Kings..Prince Of Peace our High Priest..Who is also Michael which was his first name. But I only call him Jesus because that is the name Yahweh has asked us to call him because Jesus means Yahweh is Salvation
