Jehovah’s Witness Myopic View Of Jesus (VI)

Every verbalism that depicts Christological bankruptcy is a betrayal of abject ignorance. Alpha to Omega speaks of wordage and utterance. Alpha, being the first of Greek letters, makes Jesus the first to know before God can be known. What about from beta (the 2nd Greek letter) to psi (the 23rd or 2nd to the last letter)? Jesus fills it for: does the Bible not teach that, "And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence" in Colossians 1:18?

Jehovah’s Witness Myopic View Of Jesus (V)

How could their (Jehovah's Witnesses) imperviousness allow them to believe that standing before them was the Personage of the prophetic afflatus, "Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save" [Isaiah 63:1]? There is only one Jehovah made visibly known to those who truly seek Him – He’s Jesus. Are these Jehovah's Witness people of an errant Charles Taze Russell truly witnessing the true kerygma? Selah.Read More

Ask yourself why He should throw at His disciples, the conundrum of John 14:10, "Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me?" The phrase 'I am' is, interestingly the Greek egō (eg-o') esti (es-tee'). Esti is the third person singular of eime. Eime speaks more of 'existence' than of 'being.' Egō eime is exactly what the Septuagint explains God's response to Moses' question of Exodus 3:1, "And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?" Why would Jesus arrogate I AM THAT I AM to Himself; when this epithet is the same as Jehovah!Read More

Too stubborn to give in to a superior argument based on scriptural fact the avowed disciples of Charles Taze Russell contend still with Proverbs 8:22 to prove that Christ was definitely an entity of creationism. "The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old" [Proverbs 8:22]. Qânâh (kaw-naw') is the Hebrew word for 'possess' and it means: 'to erect, that is, create; by extension to procure, especially by purchase (causatively sell); by implication to own.' Is the possession wisdom? If the LORD had to possess wisdom before embarking upon all His creative works, therefore, an urgent need to create wisdom for Himself arose, can these people not see the implications of the portentous blasphemy? It portends the lack of wisdom on God's part before creating anything. One who is deficient in wisdom is indubitably dumb. Is this what Jehovah God is?Read More

If this Light is the Author of life how different is He from the One of whom it is said in Acts 17:28 "For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring?" There is no difference. The two are the one and the same Jehovah. The One, Father, sits eternally in heaven and the Other, His express image, is Jesus Christ. Amen. Cannot we just see that without God there is no life and that if it is lucidly understood that Jesus is the true Light then man's search for the deity of Jesus is over. Amen.Read More

Simple logic should inform anyone that whatever or whoever exists before creation is indubitably as eternal as Jehovah! 'Word' in the Greek is logos (log'-os): 'something said (including the thought); by implication a topic (subject of discourse), also reasoning (the mental faculty) or motive; by extension a computation; specifically (with the article in John) the Divine Expression (that is, Christ).' Logos is the totality of God's mind, thought, word and being. Did God have to create the Word before creationism? That will be tantamount to His Divine dumbness ere creation. So, the correct answer will be a resounding, "No! He wasn't dumb."Read More

IS CHRISTIANITY AN IMPORTED RELIGION? (Part two)

January 11, 2018

Jesus said in Matthew 16:18, "And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." He did not build the church upon Peter. Peter cannot hold the Church together neither can he supply every spiritual need of the body of Christ. It is Christ's outward existence not Peter's. Two key words here are Peter and rock. 'Peter' in the Greek is Petros (pet'-ros): 'a (piece of) rock (larger than a precious stone); as a name, Petrus, an apostle.' 'Rock' is petra (pet'-ra) ‘Feminine of the same as Petros; a rock, cliff or ledge a projecting rock, crag, rocky ground.' Read More

THIS EVIL COULD HAVE BEEN JUST

January 7, 2018

This evil being is smart enough to find a way of legalizing his malicious escapade by deceiving the woman of Adam to do the unexpected evil. The earth, legally speaking, became his, and for which reason he could parade himself as the ‘god of this world,’ with a tremendous power. But He is not eternal like Jehovah. His days, therefore are very short.Read More

IS IT WRONG TO CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS ON THE 25TH DECEMBER? (part two)

January 1, 2018

If the mystical body of Christ, the Church, decides to make use of one out of the whole three hundred and sixty-five or the leap year days, in commemoration of His Incarnation, what is the big deal? Does He not own it all? Is the first day of the week, Sunday, not named after Nimrod, the sun deity? Did Nimrod create anything? Should we refuse to go to Church on Sundays just because Satan has hijacked the day for his global worship? Which of the days of the week is not named after idolatrous worship?Read More

God, no doubt, made sure none kept the record of the exact date. It was His Divine incarnation.

It ended on day six. On the seventh day, the Sabbath, He rested.Read More

Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure."

December 15, 2017

The stark reality is that this God of heaven and the earth is the only good One; and that He has carefully planted His true existence inside every living entity. Anyone who denies Him is being stubbornly unrealistic. There are actually two forces. Your repudiation of the good One automatically attracts the evil enemy. You must come to the good God by faith, therefore. Lucifer turns you from this good Jehovah by handing you a useless toy called calculation of empiricism, in the name of philosophy, which takes you on an endless journey of unproductiveness.Read More

Who would have known Mary if she had just as made the mistake of committing just one seemingly innocuous sexual act in her life, before marriage? One act of fornication would have broken her virginity, rendering her absolutely ineligible to conceive the Saviour of the world! One illicit sex would have disqualified her womb from the actualization of the Incarnation! “All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any;” says Paul in1Corinthians 6:12.
