I know most Jehovah witnesses do not like to pray around non-Jehovah witnesses. But I would like for you guys to type out an example of how you pray, thanks
(Matthew 6:5-8) “Also, when you pray, you must not be as the hypocrites; because they like to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the broad ways to be visible to men. Truly I say to you, They are having their reward in full. You, however, when you pray, go into your private room and, after shutting your door, pray to your Father who is in secret; then your Father who looks on in secret will repay you. But when praying, do not say the same things over and over again, just as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words. So, do not make yourselves like them, for God your Father knows what things you are needing before ever you ask him.
and you are mistaken about us praying around non Jehovahs witnesses but what I suspect you take as an aversion to praying is actually an aversion to interfaith.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieOr, in other words, aversion to showing love for your Christian brothers. No wonder this one commandment of Jesus' holds no value for you. What, do you think he was kidding?

Originally posted by SuzianneIf a crazed evangelical were to ask me, on his doorstep, to get down with him and pray to Jesus i would refuse. It has nothing to do with lack of love, but purity of worship, but if course you did not understand that when you made the accusation. I reserve the right to keep my faith free from idolatry. Praying to a created entity rather than the father is an act of idolatry. I resent your tone and i resent your accusations. We are the ones doing the work of teaching and preaching the Good news of Gods Kingdom from house to house after the manner of the apostles in an act which demonstrates love to persons who rarely reciprocate that love.

Originally posted by RBHILLwhen was the last time you went from house to those with the Good News of Gods Kingdom? last year we spent more than a billion hours doing just that, please tell the forum why it is you are saying we dont help people to understand? What do you think those hundreds of thousands of free home Bible studies were about? Come on, do tell!
Cum on give example of what you say. See I told you Jehovah witnesses don't like to pray around others or help people understand.
Sorry my prayers are private, between me and my God, did Jesus not make that plain enough for you?

Originally posted by RBHILLI have already told you how I pray, what the content of my prayers are is none of your business. You can request a free home Bible study if you want to learn about the teachings of the Bible.

Here is a Christian teaching that you might want to consider,
(Matthew 5:22) whereas whoever says, ‘You despicable fool!’ will be liable to the fiery Gehenna.
see you have learned something already now all you need to do is apply it, something you cannot pay a pastor to do for you I am afraid.

So there is a hell, I thought Jehovah witnesses didn't believe in hell so why even bring it up.

Originally posted by RBHILLyeah sure you have. What you in fact do is impale the Christ again for a second time submitting him to public humiliation because you think you have a license to sin with impunity. There is no more sacrifice left for you. You have trampled upon it and treated it with contempt because of your saved status. Why do you hate Jesus so?
My name is already been written in the book, so I've been saved of my sins.
