Then we could consider the Maronite Christians of the middle east, christians or muslims in Africa depending on the region.


wow what a completly ignorant and ethnocentric point of view😞
You do get that I'm talking about Christian religions seeing that Jesus had something to do with that and it is the Bible we're talking about..right?
Also I didn't write the references I posted.

Never said that. He said that it would be his followers that would be peresecuted. Aparently Jesus was speaking of being presecuted by anyone as it says by all the nations. Jehovah's Witnesses do the preaching work Jesus said to do in most of the countries of the world. No other religion does that...

There are few religions that send out missionaries but "all" the Witnesses all do this work in over 235 lands, 290 languages and over 1billion hours annually. No other religion comes even close to this because they have no organized preaching work....

You have a point? Where does it say organized preaching is a goal at
any time? The only point you need concern yourself with will be, do
you know Him, anything else is trying to put God into a place to have
to acknowledge that you've earned your way into Heaven by your good
works. I do not care how many good works you do it will not be enough.

Compare numbers then of hours and Bible studies of other religions??????? The point is we are the only ones that all of us do this preaching work. You can argue all you want but the facts are there if you ever wanted to research it.

Jesus organized the preaching work back then as an example that we are to follow today. You want the scriptures?

I would put the Amish up against you any day. hands down they are the hardest working Christians.They spend hours and hours in study and in worship weekly. And yes Virginia... they do have missions.

edit: real christians don't need to keep score because they are saved by faith not by works

It's to prove a point even if you don't understand that.

I'm just not waisting my time showing you the scriptures because it wouldn't do any good. Your not looking for the truth because you would see it if you were. There are millions of JW's that were in other religions as was my Mom. All agree that they were starved in their old religions and knew nothing of the Bible except what they were told by some old out of date pagan teachings. My gosh..they don't even use or even know God's name. How sad...
