I think I've answered accordingly. You are not my judge on how I answer and it is clear you are not ever looking for the answers we give and could really care less but only here to antagonize all you can.
Originally posted by divegeesterso tell us where does the Bible state that you do not need to be part of an organisation, you have said it, you stated that it was not explicit, so where does the idea come from? Surely you must know?
Robbie said in the other thread that he thought a person would be precluded from eternal life if they were not a member of the JW organisation, however in this thread he says he doesn't know. It is quite confusing for readers of Hesse threads to understand where it is you stand on this matter as corporate body and also as individuals, if there is a diffe ...[text shortened]... ce.
Where do you stand, which of the two answers robbie has given do you align with, if any?

As I said before pray to Jehovah for help as I can't seem to produce the answers you want.

Originally posted by stellspalfieWell you lied a few post ago and have not responded to that, so the respect went out the window I would believe.

Originally posted by galveston75Bt this is an answer to a question that has not been asked Galveston. What I think you think these scriptures show is that a measure of organisation and coordination is required for the disciples to cary out their tasks. I'm sure you will agree that there is a huge difference between a group of guys being organised and being a corporate organisation. However so there is no confusion in a future discussions, I shall from now on refer to your organisation and the Jehovah's Witness "corporation".
Part 4:
Does the Bible show that true Christians would be an organized people?
Matt. 24:14; 28:19, 20: “This good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come.” “Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them . . . teaching them.” (Ho ...[text shortened]... to accomplish a particular work is an organization.)
And you say we don't answer you....
My question to you remains unanswered. If I'm not a member of your corporation, am I precluded from eternal life?
Originally posted by galveston75I apologise if you gave me an answer and I missed it. Please, was it a yes or was it a no?

Originally posted by divegeesterwhere does it state that you do not need to be part of an organisation, you said it you believe it, so tell us where it sates that you do not need to be part of an organisation? As far as i aware Galveston has answered you many times with reason, where are your reasons, surely you must have some?

Originally posted by divegeesterI have asked almost ten times to tell us where from the scriptures that the idea that you do not need to belong to a religious organisation comes from, where is it? You don't know, do you, you have simply made it up, its nothing more than an opinion, isnt it, yours. It has no basis in anything.
Of course i am being contentious! I'm making a contention against your religious corporation.

You have today stated that you believe that non membership of your religious corporation will preclude me from eternal life. The onus here is on you to provide evidence robbie.
