I was a the Eucharist congress this past week. And there were JWs posted infront of the event. I spoke truth to them and they pulled out the “here’s our website check it out it was nice talking to you “
Listening from the heart ❤ is key to any relationship! God gave us two ears and one mouth for a reason. Even in the middle of the word "heart" is an ear. ❤
I need to know how to get a hold of Tim Staples. Why?. Well, I have a men's group here un Canada that needs some inspiration in the teachings of the Catholic church. Wow Tim Staples you are fantastic 👏.
How do you talk to members of The Local Church of Witness Lee (Cult) boldly recruiting college freshmen at almost ALL university campuses? My daughter has been recruited and brainwashed by them and it has been a horrible experience for my family. It is heartbreaking for us to be living through this 😢🙏🙏
The worst thing that happened to me is when I mentioned some Fathers (Ignatius, Irenaeus of Lyons), and after some time in which they emphasised the fact they only use the Bible, they listened to me...but had an app with a "parallel" encyclopedia that confirmed the JW claims, plus were borderline blasphemous about the Saints (who were murderers and generally horrible people).
@@fnkrodigaz1841if they were honest they would say thank you to the men and women who defend their home land wbile they contdibute nothing and reap all the benefits.
Hey guys i have a question, so i was baptized in the Catholic Church, but i was never confirmed and never received the Eucharist and now i wanna return to the Catholic Church after being a Protestant for almost 2 years. What do i have to do? Do i go to confession, or do i get confirmed first? If i go to confession, do i have to confess every mortal sin since my baptism until now? When can i receive my first Communion? Thanks for the help 🙏
@@Duarteyahoo272 Glad you're finding your way back. So a lot of these questions are going to be best answered by a priest at whatever parish you attend, so if you haven't already, get in touch with your church and arrange a time to talk to your priest. To my understanding, in a case like yours if you've done your first confession before this point, you'll go to confession and confess all that you can remember since your last confession. If you haven't done your first confession, then your priest will be able to give you better instructions on how that'll go. Most likely, you'll end up doing some type of RCIA or catechism class to bring you up to speed and prepare you for first communion. It might take some time until you're ready to receive the rest of your sacraments but be patient and take your time to dive head first into the richness of the faith. Moral of the story, talk to your priest and follow his instructions it's his whole job to help you with this so don't worry. God bless you.
The Governing Body of JW teach that the church fell out after the 12 apostles died. And the great apostasy emerged and caused true Christianity to die out. They say that God restored true worship in 1919 when he chose the GB as the mouthpiece of God. If we can debunk this theology, Jws would have a hard time defending they are the true church of JC
it is kind of easy to show that they are following men rather than god their go to is Matthew 24: 45-47 to show that Jesus selected the "faithful slave" to give food at the proper time they also believe Jesus already came back invisibly in 1914. so either Jesus took over or men lead his people. and if he put men in charge - why is the doctrine always changing (often back and forth)? they try to explain that away with "new light". which makes no sense and puts god in the "deceiver"role. 2.Peter 2:1-3
In this world, if you do evil, you will be hated, and if you do good, you will still be hated. For example, even though Jesus was a good man, he was killed as a criminal. He indicated that his true disciples would be also hated because of the good news they preach (John 15:19). Therefore, it does not surprise me to see that we, Jehovah's Witnesses, are hated because of the good news we preach, which brings joy and hope. But since Jehovah is the one who established pure worship on earth as it is in heaven, and not humans, it is better to stick to his organization, even if you will be hated (1 Peter 3:17). Therefore, I am determined to stick to Jehovah no matter what happens. I am convinced that neither death nor life, nor angels nor governments, nor things now here nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor any other creation will be able to separate me from Jehovah (Romans 8:35-39).
No one hates you: true Christian’s feel sorry for you; dreadfully sorry. You were led away from the fullness of God, the fullness of faith, and the fullness of his true Kingdom on Earth. It’s hard to not have hard feelings for the creators of watchtower doctrine. Especially if you consider the fact that true Christian’s believe (more than believe; Know) that Christ is Jehovah God in the Flesh. From the perspective of the fullness of truth that we sit in its remarkably offensive some of the claims and beliefs Jehovah’s Witnesses hold against our Creator. But most of us just feel bad for all you, we want you to know the truth; we want you to learn the truth before you meet Jesus Creator of Heaven and Earth.
The title "Jehovah" is erroneous and it was not used by any Bible writer. In fact the name is actually coming from a mistake done by a Spanish Catholic monk (13th century)
@@brianw.5230 Maybe you misunderstood them, because the word “hell” is found in many Bible translations. In the same verses other translations read “the grave,” “the world of the dead,” and so forth. Other Bibles simply transliterate the original-language words that are sometimes rendered “hell”; that is, they express them with the letters of our alphabet but leave the words untranslated. What are those words? The Hebrew she’ohlʹ and its Greek equivalent haiʹdes, which refer, not to an individual burial place, but to the common grave of dead mankind; The only Catholic Bible that I know of that mentions the word "hell" is the Douay-Rheimes Bible. And it speaks of Jesus in hell. As it says at Acts 2:31: "Foreseeing this, he spoke of the resurrection of Christ. For neither was he left in hell: neither did his flesh see corruption." So, is there a "hell" in the Bible? Absolutely.
speaking to them 1 to 1 is one thing, but trying to converse with them on a website is torture. If you ask a question, they bombard you with paragraphs of completely unrelated quotes and other nonsense. Are they not allowed to speak at all? Every once in a while you'll get one that sneaks in a word of his own, and it seems like he heard your question, but it's rare. How does that system work? Is there usually a real person behind the posts or are they just bot posts?
@FrankLee-gq8yc my question is why can't any of you just answer the question, whatever it is? For starters, no JW I've conversed with on a website ever answers the question about what religion they are. Is that against the rules? When you ask a direct question about the subject of the original post, they answer with a pageful of canned quotes from the WatchTower or something. It never has anything to do with the subject of the question. So, tell us something about the way they/you are trained to converse in youtube video chats. Are you not allowed to use logic and your own words? Are you allowed to watch the video that you post on? Did you watch this video?
@FrankLee-gq8yc Thank you, I appreciate a direct answer. But I was also looking for an idea of how the training causes other JWs to respond with canned talking points instead of actual answers. Any ideas?
@@bazzy8376 they are not trained or encouraged to think for them self! neither do they any research outside of their publications. they are in their own bubble. so if you ask them anything they can only give you the "answer" they heard a 1000 times during their meetings....
When Jesus asked his Apostles that whom do people say that I am,and as you know that the Apostles said one of the prophets.But then Jesus said to the Apostles again but whom do you say that I am,and of course Peter replied you are the Christ the SON OF THE LIVING GOD now how much more proof do people need to be convinced and believe who Jesus IS,but I’ve noticed that Jesus couldn’t convince or convert ALL OF THE JEWS AND ALSO THE APOSTLES couldn’t convince and convert every person that they spoke to about the words and teachings of GOD
"Learn how to effectively address the divinity of Christ." JWs already know about the divinity of Christ. (Isa. 9:6; John 1:1) What JWs object to is the trinity, which even the Catholic Church admits is not a Bible teaching. The man in the blue shirt says: "When I look at the Jesus of the NT, and the things that he taught about himself, as well as what the apostles taught about him, I had some disagreements with what I was taught, for example...he's not God." Okay, did the Jesus of the NT ever say he was God? Answer: NEVER. Instead, he said he said at John 10:36: "I am the Son of God." Now, how about the apostles of Jesus? Did they ever teach that Jesus is God? NEVER! They taught that he was who he said he was, the Son of God. For instance... 1. when Jesus asked his apostles who they believed he was, Peter answered: "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God." (Matt. 16:16) And later, at 1 Pet. 1:3, Peter wrote: "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ." So, did Peter teach that Jesus was God? NO! 2. after the apostle Paul was converted to Christianity, Acts 9:19b, 20 says: "[Paul] stayed some days with the disciples in Damascus, and he began at once to proclaim Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God." So, did Paul teach that Jesus was God? NO! 3. at the end of John 20, the apostle John wrote: "But these are written that you may (come to) believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God." (John 20:31) So, did the apostle John write that Jesus was God? NO! 4. in Luke's Gospel, he recorded an interaction between Jesus and some demons. And the demons said to Jesus: "You are the Son of God." (Luke 4:41) So, did the apostle Luke ever record that Jesus was God? NO! 5. in Matthew's Gospel, he also wrote about an encounter with Jesus. As Matt. 8:29 says: "[The demoms] cried out, "What have you to do with us, 22 Son of God?" (Matt. 8:29) So, did the apostle Matthew ever write that Jesus was God? NO! So, did Jesus ever teach that he was God? NO! Did Jesus' apostles ever teach that Jesus was God? NO! One side note. Who do Catholics say God is? The Athanasian Creed says: "[The Father, Son, and holy spirit] *ARE ONE GOD."* So, if Jesus is God, then Jesus is a one-person trinity. If not, then, the trinity is one God and that Jesus is another God. Catholics are profoundly confused. Hopefully, this will put one lie to rest. Neither Jesus nor his apostles ever said he was Yahweh, "the _only_ true God." (John 17:3; Ex. 3:15)
Dude you’re sitting here spouting heresy like this is somehow new to anybody. This has been discussed for 2,000 years and it’s the definition of Christianity - believing that Jesus is God. Sitting here straw-manning what Christians believe and trying to confuse those who are less educated is just bottom of the barrel tactics. Remember that your whole religion was started in ~1890 (less than 200 years old) and is founded on the idea that ALL Christians are wrong and that this one small group was going to restore Christianity. You’re fundamentally not a Christian. Just having theological opinions about Jesus doesn’t make JWs Christians.
When did Jesus say " I am Michael, the Archangel"? 😊 Maybe this will put to rest that neither Jesus nor the Apostles said the Jesus is Michael the Archangel!
What about when St Thomas says “My Lord and my God” and worshipped him? If the angel will stop John from worshipping him, why wouldn’t Jesus stop Thomas
@@StringofPearls55 "When did Jesus say " I am Michael, the Archangel"?" He didn't. When did Jesus ever say: 1. "I am the Word"? 2. "I am God"? 3. "my mother is the mother of God"? 4. "I am Emmanuel"? 5. "I am the Prince of Peace"?
Bless you Tim for your Support of the Pope and properly understanding of Fiducia Supplicans, without the misleading information commonly presented.
I work with JW (he’s janitorial) and he has mild aspergers. I’m a nurse at the facility.
