Luke chapter 10

After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them two by two ahead of him to every town and place where he was about to go. He told them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send ou ...[text shortened]... house, first say, ‘Peace to this house.

Hard to argue with empirical evidence, isn't it.[/b]

Those instructions are surely for the seventy two others? Besides, what does Luke 10:7 say?

Well well you fell into that trap. Thats the verse I thought you might use. Thats the reason why you declined to quote Christ becuase in that same passage he said : GO NOT FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE.

READ THE PASSAGE:

After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come. Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest. Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves. Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way. And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house. And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again. And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.(Luke 10:1-7 KJV)

Read the Bible rather than listen to the Watchtower Organisation.

haha i knew the argument was coming and you would attempt to twist the scriptures, they were not to transfer if a person of peace was found not that they were not to go from house to house entirely, otherwise you have a problem, for the apostles of Christ were exactly doing just that, as the scripture in Acts plainly states, now you can accept what the scriptures say or you can continue to slither about it trying to twist the scriptures either way, the matter is perfectly clear in my eyes and no amount of slander can negate it.

I read the passage, why were the apostles of Christ going from house to house every day as reported in the book of acts, either your interpretation is wrong or they were acting contrary to your interpretation, so please explain the matter, either the Bible is wrong or your interpretation is twisted, i know what i think. Try reading the Bible in its entirety instead of picking out verses in isolation in order to justify your twisted interpretation.

You asked for a passage where Christ directed people to go to private houses, you got a passage where Christ directed people to go to private houses, how you interpret it is your affair.

You will explain your interpretation and why the apostles of Christ were going from house to house in the book of Acts as is clearly reported, either your interpretation is wrong and twisted or the Bible is wrong when it reports that the apostles were going from house to house. Which is it?

Do the JWs follow Christ command then? If a person of peace is found then they are NOT to go house to house but remain in that house eating and drinking etc?

No they dont. So what is the point of claiming to be the only ones to follow Christ?

Act 5:42 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.

Says nothing about house to house. Do the JWs preach daily in the temple?
And do they preach 'Jesus Christ'?
Definitely not. For the JWs, Jesus Christ is Michael the Archangel.

Its nothing to do with Jehovahs witnesses is it, just answer the question, either the apostles were disobeying your interpretation or your interpretation is wrong, which is it?

Definitely not. From the JWs Jesus Christ is Michael the Archangel.

Day after day, in the temple courts and from house to house, they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the good news that Jesus is the Messiah.

Acts 5:42 NIV version

again either you are lying or the Bible is wrong, which is it, i can plainly see that it reads from house to house, why cant you? again it has nothing to do with Jehovahs witnesses why you need to make some kind of diversionary argument is a sign of the weakness of your arguments, just look at the verse, does it mention the apostles went from house to house or does it not?

Your interpretation is wrong.

so lets get this you are saying that the Christ commanded the apostles not to go from house to house even though he said when you enter a [private] house and you say that they should not go from house to house even though in the book of acts we find the apostles going from house to house, every day, without letup, is that correct?

Luke 10: 7 .. GO NOT FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE.

Do the JWs ever stay to eat and drink in a house and follow Christ NOT TO GO FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE?

how were they to enter a private house and say peace if they were not to go from house to house (according to your interpretation), please explain, were they only to go to one house and say peace?

were the apostles disobeying christs words (according to your interpretation) when they were reported as preaching in the temple and from house to house without let up, please explain

its nothing to do with Jehovahs witnesses
