Jehovah's Witnesses say helping people is the devil?

You know, I'm really not even sure what to do with all that. My heart is in volunteering, service and helping people. I can't even wrap my head around such despicable comments.

The Bible says to help brothers/sisters in Christ AND others.

The Watchtower opinion is: why waste time providing for the physical needs of people like the churches but starve them spiritually? They think their message and no other type of help is what counts. Last time I checked, I think eating a Watchtower would not be so appetizing. Also, don't let them fool you into believing they do any actual kind of selfless, no payment expected, disaster relief or that they bother helping anyone besides other JWs. And just the comment that all the churches only help people with physical needs and nothing else only shows their absolute stupidity. Ok, my answer ends here before I say anything else.

Edit: I've read through all the comments on the link you provided. All I can really say is to keep fighting the good fight - and don't expect lost people to have any real comprehension or understanding, which was clearly demonstrated.

Jehovah's Witnesses refuse to help the needy. They are only worried about building up.their false religion. I saw a recent video on the Syrian refugee crisis where real Christians and others were housing and feeding the refugees whilst the Jehovah's Witness stood nearby with their propaganda carts, giggling. They prey on the needy.

I'll give you an answer next time I am approached by a starving Jehovah's Witness. They really are the most unutterable ****.

Jehovah's Witnesses don't believe what you've stated here in this question of yours, so stop misrepresenting us (yet again)

We DO aid people both spiritually and physically but as my brother here has already pointed out we don't toot our horns about it.

If as you say one of Jehovah's Witnesses has said what you've stated here (which I highly doubt because we believe no such thing in your first paragraph especially) then please provide a link to the statement. Otherwise readers cannot confirm this, and as you've shown yourself to be a hater of our beliefs in the past, then they'll not believe you

Edit..

I've just read through the comments of the link you provided and your conversation with Tim, and you are totally misrepresenting what he said. You have twisted what he said by implying that he said we shouldn't help people. This is not true. The main title of your question shows that too. Now whether that is intentional to mislead people about our beliefs or whether you simply didn't read through his comments properly, I don't know. But as you've negatively misrepresented our beliefs before, I can take a good guess.

When a disaster strikes, Jehovah s Witnesses immediately organize assistance to bring relief to their brothers who are affected. Such efforts demonstrate the genuineness of our love for one another. (John 13:34, 35; 1 John 3:17, 18) In what ways do we help?

WE DONATE FUNDS. When we learn that our brothers in some part of the world are facing hardship, we send donations through our local congregation to supply material aid to those in critical need.-2 Corinthians 8:13-15

WE PROVIDE PRACTICAL ASSISTANCE. The elders who are at the scene of a disaster locate each congregation member to ensure that everyone is accounted for and safe. A relief committee may coordinate the supplying of food, clean drinking water, clothing, shelter, and medical help. Many Witnesses with the needed skills volunteer go to, at their own expense and participate in the relief work or to repair damaged homes and Kingdom Halls. The unity that we enjoy as an organization and the experience we have gained in working together enables us to mobilize quickly in times of need. Although we extend our hand to "those related to us in the faith," WE ASSIST OTHERS TOO WHEN POSSIBLE, WHATEVER THEIR RELIGION.-Galatians 6:10

WE OFFER SPIRITUAL AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT. Victims of a disaster especially need comfort. At such times, we draw strength from Jehovah, "the God of all comfort." (2Corinthians 1:3, 4) We gladly share the Bible s promises with those in despair, offering the assurance that soon GOD S KINGDOM WILL BRING AN END TO ALL THE TRAGEDIES that cause pain and suffering.-Revelation 21:4.

Read Gods word> king James version or new king James version. Do what it says, not what a religion says. Matthew 5:40-47

Jehovah's Witnesses are helping people but you don't know for this reason:

“Take care not to practice your righteousness in front of men to be noticed by them; otherwise you will have no reward with your Father who is in the heavens. 2 So when you make gifts of mercy, do not blow a trumpet ahead of you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be glorified by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full. 3 But you, when making gifts of mercy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 so that your gifts of mercy may be in secret. Then your Father who looks on in secret will repay you" (Matthew 6:1-4. Bible).

Do you understand?...

What you have stated in your details is an accurate depiction of the reasoning used by most JWs. It is a twisted, nihilistic reasoning which they use to justify their selfishness as an organization.

As an organization, they exhibit the same kinds of illogical reasoning, callousness to outsiders, haughtiness and self-righteousness as demonstrated by the scribes and the pharisees. They are the modern-day "christian" version of the scribes and the pharisees. Blind, haughty, self-righteous, bigoted and hypocritical.

their the devil to think that
