Jesus is a Jehovah witness. Prove to me that he is not. John 5:36 So if indeed he is a Jehovah witness why not follow his step closely just like clouds of Jehovah's witnesses do. 1 Peter 2:21. |

Tallesty1: Am proud to say that am one of JW. We are used to the apathy we receive from people when will preach from door to door, remember this apathy existed in the days of the apostles. We aren't deterred by the negative response of people, we re making constant search for people who are rightly disposed for everlasting life and we preach to them. An experience I had today wen I knocked @ a door and saw an old woman, I tried to share with her Bible's wonderful promise for the elderly ones,only to witness sth that suprised me, someone I didn't even see@ d room inside just pushed the door and locked it up. I told my partners don't to be discouraged, we will keep on in the work of d lord and remember Jesus said that this goodnews about the kingdom must be preached in all the inhabited earth, for a witness to all the nations and then the end will come(matt. 24:14) 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Sarang:Show me a chapters and verses in the bible that support all these silly beliefs Jehovah witnesses have? God telling Abraham to trust him and carry out a deed isn't the same with looking on as someone dies when you can help. Show me a part of the bible that God said we shouldn't donate blood to save a life! Abraham and Isaac has nothing to do with purposely watching a human being die when you can save them so don't even bring that into this topic. You Jehovah witnesses just twist the scriptures to suit your evil doctrines and that's why you don't intermarry with other Christians from another denomination. ![]() |

This has come from Jehovah, and it is marvelous in our eyes’? 43 This is why I say to you, the Kingdom of God will be taken from you and be given to a nation producing its fruits. 44 Also, the person falling on this stone will be shattered. As for anyone on whom it falls, it will crush him.” |

Ijaya123: And with that Jesus still never sent his disciples to go on praying for people from one places to another, he rather ask them to preach and teach. You might want to show me where Jesus or his disciples went out praying for people or pray before teaching. Jehovah's witnesses preach according to how Jesus instructed his disciples as found in Matt. 10 vs 11-13, Matt. 11vs1, Matt 28vs19 etc. And if you insist that the praying before preaching is more important you are probably saying Jesus didn't know what he was doing. 1 Like |

goodnewscliff: The phrase first born oh all creation doesn't mean Jesus was part of the created. It simply means first fruit of the dead. Jesus said something about the glory him and the father shared before the world began (before creation). In Jn 1:1 Jesus is called God, the Word, the Logos. The Jehovah’s Witnesses have rewritten a whole bible translation just to change the passage from its very obvious climax of Jesus the Logos being God to merely Jesus as a god, with a little g. Note to everyone, this is the only translation that says this… and its neither correct nor popular (probably because its not correct). Thomas calls Jesus “Lord and God” in Jn 20:28, in the Greek its κύριός (Lord) μου (my) καὶ (and) ὁ θεός (God) μου (my) or basically “my Lord and my God.” Some people try to make ridiculous explanations to avoid it, such as Thomas was either wrong or he spoke of two separate entities, Jesus as an earthly Lord, and God as the heavenly father that was up in the sky. Some even say Thomas spoke to Jesus as a man but in him saw God, though Jesus was not divine. Basically some people will say Thomas was speaking to two entities and thereby people gladly avoid the obvious, that Thomas said to HIM, not to THEM, Jesus is “my Lord and my God.” Col. 2:9 is very clear, the fullness of deity or God-hood/God-ness dwells in Jesus. While we have Gods spirit living in us, we cannot say the fullness of deity dwells in us. God lives in us, but his divine nature is not a part of us; Jesus on the other hand had the fullness of Gods divine nature in his body. Also see Heb 1:3. Paul calls Jesus “God and Savior” in Titus 2:13. According to Granville Sharps Rule #1 (a rule used in interpreting Greek texts) “When the copulative kai (“and”) connects two personal nouns (“God,” “Savior”) which are singular and not proper nouns (such as names) both nouns refer to the first-named person.” Basically just in case some “brilliant guy” tries to pull a stunt and say that this refers to two separate entities, the Greek grammar does not work that way. These two nouns (God/Savior) can only refer to one entity, Jesus. You can read more in depth here. In Heb 1:8 we see the Son of God and God used as synonyms. God the Father calls the Son, God. In Acts 20:28 we are told that the blood of Jesus was “Gods own blood.” At the end of the day we can squirm and cringe all we want but Christ is God over all, the true God, this the scriptures are clear on (Rom 9:5; 1 John 5:20). The bible is clear and explicit in saying that Jesus created everything. And all things that were or are or will be came into being through him (and for Him). It is simply childish and intellectually immature to then turn around and say this same Jesus who made everything is himself not God but a mere man or angel. Neither men nor angels can create, they can only transform by taking preexisting atoms and reformulating them into another structure. Creation physical material ‘ex nihilo’ (out of nothing) is an attribute that only God the Creator has (Isa 40:28) Read the Bible per topic you will understand. |

Nnaabros: what you are typing is laughable ![]() virtually ALL groups claim scriptures as basis for their contradictory teachings. a Catholic that uses the rosary to recite hail Mary, uses luke 1:26-45 as basis for their tradition, are witnesses any different from them? a JW is quick to point out catholic use of images in prayer as unscriptural, but he cannot show where the word- kingdom Hall- is used to describe the place of worship of christains in the Bible. Not all other religions adhere to them. Actually, no other religion adhere to them. you claim that not all religion will make heaven, but you failed to show me why your religion is superior. let me show you the bibles yardstick for a true religion. james 1:27 New International Version Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. The modern-day history of Jehovah’s Witnesses began with the forming of a group for Bible study in Allegheny, Pennsylvania, U.S.A., in the early 1870’s. At first they were known only as Bible Students, but in 1931 they adopted the Scriptural name Jehovah’s Witnesses. (Isa. 43:10-12) Our beliefs and practices are not new but are a restoration of first-century Christianity |
