Not all ExJws are bad. Often times they're against ExJWs who takes things to an extreme level, and from experience, such levels ends up looking dishonorable to even the non religious.

Let's not confuse what hate meaning is. I don't see a problem in following Scripture either, which seems to russle some jimmies nowadays. 

The Sabbath isn't required. We are under the Law of Christ. 

Is there EVER a good forum, superchat, chat, etc?

A forum is like a classroom, different people for something and or against and there are some who attack others without reason and or jump to some spontaneous conclusion that has nothing factual backing it. And there's those who are just cooling. 

@TrueTomHarley Unfortunately some forget that imperfect man can err and or just simply ignore the fact to make a lowkey not as educated statement.

What I do find ironic is that someone people don't agree with a lot of the opposers and even some of them are against one another. 

Annnnnnd there are those who don't understand what "Christian" means too jajaja.

Oh, buenas noticias hermano, noticias falsas. 🤨 Abstenerse de sangre.

Meanwhile...... it isn't even 3 days yet and I am working on an essay when I see this.

😂 😂Then convention attendants wearing badgets shouldn't visit McDonalds 

https://www.newsweek.com/mcdonalds-worker-fired-paramedic-refused-service-1452268

 

Sunstar paramedic Anthony Quinn said the fast food worker in Madeira Beach, Florida, refused to serve him and his colleague after telling both of them that "we don't serve your kind here."

Quinn discussed the incident in a post on Facebook. "I walk into McDonald's just to use the bathroom and an employee goes we don't accept officers in here," he wrote.

"I tell her I'm not an officer. She then says anyone with a badge. Then says it to my partner as he walks in to order food, says we don't serve your kind here.

"Just insane how people are," Quinn added.

 

Or wearing a suit in some clothing stores. You can easily be mistaken for an employee.

@JW Insider got it. Also realizing this was the thread lol.

@James Thomas Rook Jr. 3 arms jaja? Is the technological breakthrough legit? All jokes aside, no one is actually forced to wear a badge or required to, it is choice.....

Unless...... 🤔🤔🤔 Unless.... You are part of some Police Department of some city or county that yeah, 100% you better have that badge on deck lol. People gotta know you are one of the boys in blue jaja.

@Matthew9969 pillow what? I don't know if you hard this or got the memo but even outside of the hall, there are peeps out there that take issue with beards. No one is forced to shave, the decision is up to the individual, but the thing is we have to uphold modesty and cleanliness, as well as show respect to those we preach to in our community. If you preach around you'll run into people like this, well, some parts, for each area is different or far more/less diverse regarding race/groups/communities. 

@BillyTheKid46 Probably because Law is too difficult or too much for some people to comprehend. Especially with how things are going all over the place, some people don't really trust Law and some who knows Law and do good are often overshadowed by corruption fellas. Just a few weeks ago for us peeps in Jersey about Judge John Russo. But at the end of the day like I said, there is people who know the law even the basic stuff and those who are literally not knowing anything about it when it comes to crime and other things. I can honesty say I don't know all the high stuff besides the basic things, no texting and driving, buckle up it's the law (buckle up or get locked up), I seen billboards for this one, drive sober or get pulled over, and this one, when driving at night, always stay right.

Wow... I guess when people say "Do it for the Gram" they literally do it on a HIGH level jaja.

People do anything for likes.... Sadly...

No. This simply shows that @Equivocation is well-read and that you, despite bolting from the Witnesses, have not compensated for that lack by becoming so

I see my name lol, but confused on how and why I am mentioned jajaja.

Someone in our congregation had recently been reinstated. Not going to go about the what she did because that is on a "What'chu talkin about Willis" type level. But even before that she always attended and whatnot. But yeah, we welcomed her back with open arms. For us Latinos it is, well some of us, it is as if it is a reunion party of some sort.

is it ok for a JW fireman to rescue people from a burning church?

This is how JW's constantly think..... get real folks...

What's wrong with that? Also you maaaaaaay wanna look at the article as a whole..... yeaaaahhhh jajaja.

@Witness But Witness... It wasn't just priests in the Temple, or in this case, the people in union with Jesus Christ.

Remember, Paul was writing to the Corinthains. The temple itself was the congregation as a whole and that Jehovah God was in, or a fancy word for it, dwelled in the people. 

It's actually clearer when you take a good read at the marginal references, especially the one verse from Ephesians.

But yeah..... A congregation of Priests only? It's kinda odd, especially with what is actually read in the passage and the other passages about the people Paul wrote to, their congregation(s).

Someone brought up Chloe. She wasn't a priest, she was a member of one of the congregations Paul wrote to.

It is small stuff like that you have to take into account, there's no shame in slipping up tho, especially this one.

As i understand you Frida, you are young JW member. I am little surprised with your way of participation here. :)) You, as Witness in JWorg congregation have been taught to defend WT doctrines, not to defend religious beliefs of people who not belong to JW religion. :))

Also, if you have some doctrinal/religious questions your congregational elders would be glad to help you Frida.

:))))

Of course, i said this just for fun. You are free to do what ever you want.

The funny thing is that what he was saying is a legitimate Christian belief, even we Jehovah's Witnesses believe this too so it is not only us so that teachings isn't soley exclusive to Jehovah's Witnesses. The fact that the quote of his was actually from some dude who wrote a lot about the New Covenant (Don Stewart) can easily be found (BY THE POWER OF THE INTERNET lol) shows that to be true also.

As far as I know, Stewart is a Theologian, well from what I can see, he isn't one of Jehovah's Witnesses but he knows what the Covenant is about and said the same thing about what was said here.

I don't really have much questions because I read, meditate and apply what I learn from the Bible. If that is a problem for you then you really need to check yourself. I rather not read any less because I apply what Joshua 1:8, we studied about this today actually. 

Oh Frida, oh Frida, intentas esforzarte solo para parecer tonto... Seeing you are denying the name given to you by the Athiest fellow from that very old discussion, to which you deserved it after irritating him. That's cute and all, but that name is your brand, and it sells, and you legit, actually have a family member linked to you by that name, tu mejor amigo. But yeah bro, worked that brand, do you.

As for my participation, it was related to what I made a comment to. What you just say irrelevant.

But seriously, bro... You had a chance to say something wise, but you ended up taking out your own ankles outside of a basketball court, epic fail mi chico jajaja

Come on, amigo, surely you can do more than shed some chuckles, ah if you don't like Frida, Chuckles is another good one.

@BillyTheKid46 lol. The Assyrian King is also mentioned as the Destroyer too. But the thing with him is the Destroyer will/has been destroyed by another Destroyer. 

@Space Merchant What are the other beliefs that people have about it?

10 hours ago, Witness said:

 

@Space Merchant :  Another point is, you claim that there is no biblical and or scriptural support concerning the New Covenant, and yet it is there in the Bible, mentioned in the Old Testament, and mentioned again as well as set in motion in the New Testament, which shows here, you truly do not know 100% what the New Covenant even is, resulting in what I stated to you earlier before you deviated from the question at hand.

  I am done with your rambling and lies.  

He isn't lying tho. He posted the verses on page 1-2 about it, starting with the book of Jeremiah and into who mediates in the New Testament. Even mentioned Jehovah's Promise to Abraham. 

Pentecost 33 A.D. shows you what went down  after Jesus' death and ressrrection in Acts 2 and throughout the New Testament, especially about Paul, it talks about people being in Christ, it isn't just the anointed class, but everyone.

Plus, you said in your other post about the great crowd. So either you met this or you slipped up.

If he was lying, you'd have to show what he is lying about or how he is lying, majority of what he said is legit, like, brand new nikes not sold in stores legit jaja.

Jesus NEVER instituted an organisation or theocratic kingdom on earth

He entrusted the Christian Congregation. Ever heard of Paul, Clement, and a list of others?

@Jack Ryan Not really dude. It's a matter of choice, no one his forced. 

No one is forcing you to eat coco puffs, wheaties or apple Jack's in the morning, you choose what to eat. True someone might tell you what is healthy or what is not, but at the end of the day hombre, it's a choice. 

It is high like Miami right now. It is my choice to dump bottles of water on my head and sit in the comfort of my own room with the AC straight blasting jajaja

@Jesus.defender Not really. We are worshippers of Jehovah God. And we do what his son Jesus had commanded us to do, to preach the good news and to make discples. We also apply what qualities that Jesus expresses.

For a defender if Jesus. Last I checked Jesus doesn't attack his fellow man, let alone a random stranger.

Yes that is true. Spiritual Jerusalem does not reject the Christ. Although Witness is as blind and misguided as ever so evident, Witness was aware of these despite confusing Earthly and Spiritual in the past, and did not make the correction even later on.

The New Covenant is of HIGH importance, we should not belittle ourselves to the level of stupidity and or ignorance of what it entails, something the MSC does not understand, the interfaith among them twist what it means and tarnish what the Covenant even is.

Copying and pasting I see; you had already been dealt with. Take your anger, your loss and your depravity, elsewhere, ignorant one. For are also unaware that the Bible supports Spiritual Israel.

That being said, you are of no concern in this thread, for I am only concern with you in our debate, so I suggest you take it there because should you begin with Spiritual Israel, you will be burned and rinsed with Scripture verily easily.

 

Exactly. God's people consists of both the anointed and the sheep. All of them are worshippers of Jehovah and all of them are in union with Jesus, in a sense, a oneness in teaching and faith.

That is exactly what Spiritual Israel is all about essentially. So I dunno why Witness thinks that Spiritual Israel is only the anointed class, which doesn't make any sort of sense because of all that we read that took place after Jesus' death.

@Witness I do believe this. I think he believes this to because you can see this in his quote, in fact a lot of Christian's know what the New Covenant even is, not just us Jehovah's Witnesses alone.

He said Spiritual Israel is all those in union with Jesus. This is including the anointed and the other sheep of the fold.

How don't see how he doesn't believe it if he says exactly what it is about God's people. 

On 7/19/2019 at 8:27 PM, Space Merchant said:

New Covenant's (Sym. Sarah; free woman) mediator between God and Spiritual Israel is the only begotten son of the true God, child to Mary and Joseph, Jesus (Imanuel). In this Covenant, the people that represent the other party are the both Jews and Gentiles. And around this time people were validated by Jesus giving his life for mankind (Jesus' Sacrifice) and what was to be followed was written within our hearts

He even quoted Jeremiah too.

It is kind of useless to bring up the whole abaddon bit because of that thread he linked. I read the whole thing and the quoted sources that lines up with his argument against you.

Also, I don't understand how you think that Jehovah God's own angel is a pawn of Satan especially when you have verses about the Assyrian army.

And he does have a point. Exodus 12 isn't Satan at all, but rather an angel of Jehovah, this is even brought up at Hebrew 11.

28 By faith he observed the Passover and the splashing of the blood, so that the destroyer might not harm their firstborn.

The Destroyer here is an angel of Jehovah. That wasn't Satan at all. And why would Satan essentially be helping Jehovah?

It seems how @Space Merchant and @Equivocation  find common religious language on this and other topics. I wonder does this belong to "interfaith dialogue" because two members of different, even opposite religions support each other in doctrinal matters. :)) As i know JW Church forbidden to his members any kind of Ecumenism :)) 

   

Equivocation (also known as: doublespeak)

No interfaith dialogue. The Bible tells you clearly what is said, for any Bible reader can see that for themselves. For instance if you go to the verses about the donkey, you don't see any donkey talking about Jesus, let alone that one donkey who was shook by the angel. 

Lol the donkey speaking isn't a doctrine or Jesus being figurative which makes your common more of a joke compared to your cedar ones. Jjajajaja

Actually the definition of Equivocation is the use of equivocal or ambiguousexpressions, especially in order tomislead or hedge; prevarication.

Also Equivocation was my fifa name, my pkmn name and and a list of other things. So I maintain that name. My name doesn't define what is said or not said in the Bible. 

Oh Frida, it is no surprise to anyone that you are mad.

also speaking about Restaurants, you should go to clear up your mind, probably go have a long walk on the beach. You need it. 

@Space Merchant Also Spiritual Jerusalem. The one that accepts the Christ :).

Nice nod to the book of Jeremiah also.

@Witness Don't think he is [ever] kidding. He is asking you a question from the links he posted that was addressed to you. That was your quote that can be read.

Also Jeff I think he is one of Jehovah's Witnesses, check his profile.

But anyways, we do know about Spiritual Israel and how Spiritual Israel is God's people.

The anointed and the crowd are all in Jesus Christ and apply the good news and teach it. United in faith, all of us praise, sing and worship Jehovah God. 

Also that one verse you posted. The destroyer that was sent to deal with Assyrian Soliders was an Angel of Jehovah otherwise known as an Angel of Death by some even in some translations if I am not mistaken. The title of Destroyer applies to others not just Satan only and it doesn't make sense for the Devil to protect the Israelites or protect King Hezekiah.

So that is where the confusion is and probably that is why you are being questioned about it.
