   My Opinion? The scripture you pointed out proved my point. They were   
   propagating the Gospel of Jesus Christ. According to your religious dogma you   
   deny Jesus as God, and the doctrines of Jesus is what you currently lay claim   
   to, You separate Jesus from Jehovah. Plus the verse you quoted states   
   that,...   
   #1 They taught people publicly   
   #2 The also taught people from house to house, meaning the congregates   
   meeting in houses.   
   #3 They were not proselytizing.   
      
   So according to you and the JW Org you represent, you claim, Jesus the   
   Messiah. Not Jehovah.   
      
   That is your claim, the claim of the JW Org. Therefore not my opinion.   
   Should you follow Jesus? Yes, that is the Doctrine of Jesus Christ.

   Not an opinion, just confirming the heresy of the JW. Read the scriptures.   
   Not with just the mind, but with a spiritual Godliness. Having been Born   
   Again as Jesus commanded.   
      
   Why do you disrespect those you converse with. Why not read the whole post   
   and see what the context is, then reply accordingly. In context. You argue   
   strictly from the fleshly mind. Using the logic of man, not with a spiritual   
   understanding.

   You have made that previous error before, I counted it with actual scripture,   
   even showing you where in both the OT and the NT scripture you have many   
   errors. Erroneous ones of a great magnitude. Like look at your “7,000”   
   errors using the RCC name of Jehovah, and not the proper transliteration of   
   Yehovah, nor have you properly translated the four Hebrew letters and used   
   them?   
      
   How many time must you persist willingly telling a lie with intent to deceive   
   yourself and all others around you?

   This is where you are offensive. This was the main topic of your post that I   
   replied to below, yet you act as if it was not fully part of, or addressed in   
   this reply of yours.

   Incorrect. Mass deception noted. Who is it that is to be baptized? Disciples.   
   Plus you totally disregarded the Book of Acts and I suggested. Yet there are   
   other books that speak to it as well.

   Yet you do not do the will of God. You follow the Doctrines and dogmas of the   
   JW Org first and foremost. It is man that you listen to, not God. God see’s   
   your heart and its intent. He follows no religion.   
   You claim on one hand to believe ALL of the Bible, on the other hand you   
   claim to accept all the Bible. Yet you do not know very much of it.   
      
   Act 8:34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom   
   speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?   
      
   Act 8:35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and   
   preached unto him Jesus.   
      
   Act 8:36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and   
   the eunuch said, See,here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?   
      
   Act 8:37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou   
   mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of   
   God.   
      
   Act 8:38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both   
   into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.   
      
   There are many other examples. Some far more explicit.

   No reason to, you cannot see because you are blind. It is not my opinion. It   
   is the Word of God.

   Since when? You speak from the mind, an unrenewed mind, not from the heart.   
   You don’t even believe that the physical body of Jesus was resurrected.
