Next time you see a JW, take them to John 1:3...

[SavedByTheBloodOfChrist]

[King Dan of Great the 1st]

God said....

Isaiah
"This is what the LORD says-- Israel's King and Redeemer, the LORD Almighty: I am the first and I am the last; apart from me there is no God.

Jesus said.....

Revelation
"I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End."

Jesus also said me and my Father are one. I mean it's just obvious there are many scriptures that prove who Jesus is in the bible as a entire piece of work , how do JWs miss it.

 

[King Dan of Great the 1st]

I do not know too much about JWs and there beliefs but I meet a dude I lived with last year, nice guy, and he just joined the JWs and they used to pick him up for church in a flash car, he was new to the faith and he could be wrong but he said they believe in God and Jesus just not the Holy Spirit. It could be another way around who knows.

Who knows, biblical crookedness runs rampant and evolves in the so called church., maybe that's the new thing these days, denying the Holy Spirit.

Anyhow we did have a chat and I got him thinking and he did thank me for pointing out true scripture and what it says and said he agreed and would rather read the Bible for himself.

I have not seem him since but hopefully he realised he was being duped as he was starting to click on and think for himself before they completely brainwashed him in some false doctrine. I pointed it out and he agreed and said he knew something was not right.

Trinity​

They do not believe in the Trinity. Instead, they follow a strict monotheism, in which: Jehovah is the Supreme Being. Jesus is the Son of God, a created being. Christ is believed to have originally existed in a pre-human state as the Archangel Michael. He later took human form as a man like any other person, except that he was sinless at birth and remained so throughout his earthly life. Jehovah’s Witnesses do not believe in the bodily resurrection of Christ. They believe that after the crucifixion, Christ died and was resurrected as an invisible, non-material, glorious, spirit creature. They believe that Jesus appeared on earth after his resurrection in a special body that Jehovah created for him.

Man's Soul​

Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that a person is the soul the Bible speaks of, and when a person dies nothing lives on, the person is dead and is conscious of nothing. When the time comes for God to resurrect them from the dead He will create a new body for them from His memory.

Hell​

They totally deny the existence of the traditional Christian view of Hell. Satan is regarded as having created the concept of Hellfire in order to turn people against God. They believe that hell is the "common grave of mankind" where people go when they die. They are not conscious there. Unbelievers simply cease to exist at death. Believers remain in death until the resurrection.

Nationalism​

Jehovah’s Witnesses are not allowed to salute the flag of any nation, recite the pledge of allegiance, stand for or sing the national anthem, run for public office, vote, or serve in the armed forces.

Salvation (Grace vs. Works)​

Salvation requires that one accept Bible doctrines as interpreted by the Governing Body, be baptized as a Jehovah's Witness and follow the program of works as laid out by the Governing Body.

Jehovah’s Witnesses claim that they believe in the grace of God and that one does not earn salvation by their works. While they give lip service to God’s grace, their actions indicate differently. Consider the policy of making a disfellowshipped person earn their way back into the congregation. Remember you must be a Jehovah’s Witness "in good standing" to survive the end times, and to remain in good standing you must follow the rules and works set out by the Watchtower Organization. If someone breaks a rule, the elders decide whether that person is repentant or not, if they decide they are not repentant they are disfellowshipped. A disfellowshipped witness will not survive the time of the end. Think about it, they are deciding who deserves God’s grace and who does not.

Wherever you find the word grace in most Bibles you will find the term "undeserved kindness" in their Bible. While this may or may not be an acceptable translation of the original Greek word, it gives them a great deal of latitude in their teaching. In the December, 1993 issue of The Kingdom Ministry (a publication for members only) in an article titled "Sow Bountifully but With Discernment" the Watchtower Organization printed this thought "We want to give deserving ones the opportunity to learn of Jehovah’s undeserved kindness and the Kingdom hope". This brings to mind some serious questions: How can anyone deserve God's undeserved kindness if it's undeserved? And just what methods would mortal man use to discern who deserves God's undeserved kindness and who does not, are not God's thoughts higher than man's? This statement really shows the attitude of The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society—not all people deserve God’s grace and it is the job of Jehovah's Witnesses to discern who does and who does not. Jehovah's Witnesses constantly boast that they alone are "preaching the good news of the kingdom in all the inhabited earth". Are they preaching in all the inhabited earth or just to the ones they deem deserving?

By Adam Ford

But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. Romans 8:9

How can the Spirit of Christ dwell in all born again Christians on earth and in heaven, at the same time?

Because He is Omnipresent; an attribute of God.

Let's just hope that he did- and that he got saved!
