I Want to Witness, But What Do I Say to:  Jehovah Witnesses

Deception:

Truth to Say to Jehovah Witnesses:

 

 

The proper use of God’s correct name, which is Jehovah, is essential to salvation.

There are many names for God.  Salvation is not about  using God's correct name, but salvation is all about having a relationship with God through His Son Jesus Christ.   Forgiveness of sins is found in the name of Jesus (John1:12).  Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life and there is no way to the Father, but through Him (John 14:6; Acts 4:10-12).  When we receive Jesus as Lord, the Holy Spirit comes to live on the inside of us creating our connection or relationship with God, Who will then never leave us nor forsake us.

Salvation depends on works. Grace is the opportunity for people to earn their salvation by total obedience to the Watchtower Society. Grace is not a free gift of salvation

Salvation is by faith through grace in the Lord Jesus Christ with no works involved.  (Ephesians 2:8-9)  Grace means:  God’s unmerited favor.  God freely gives us salvation as a gift and it is received by calling on the name of the Lord Jesus, not Jehovah, for salvation (Romans 10:3). Once you are saved from hell,  God does want you to do good works to help people in need.

The Watchtower Society should be obeyed as the voice of God

The voice of God is only found in the Bible (2 Tim. 3:16).  One should obey God and His Word, not an organization. Christians are led by the Spirit of God within them & obey Him.

Only 144,000 Jehovah’s Witnesses go to heaven aka the “Anointed Class”:  the ones who are born-again.

Jesus Christ never restricted His Kingdom to 144,000 people. He taught that ALL people should seek the Kingdom of God and whoever believed in Him would become born-again. 1 John 5:1

After the 144,000, all remaining JW are God’s remaining sheep and will live forever on paradise earth

A heavenly destiny awaits ALL who believe in Jesus Christ.  Jesus affirmed that all believers will be together in “one flock” under the One Shepherd, Jesus Christ, in heaven – John 10:16

The Trinity is not real.  The Father, Jesus Christ & the Holy Ghost are all separate.  The Trinity was adopted by the church 300 years after Jesus Christ died.

There are not “three Gods in one God.” There are three manifestations or three persons in one God.  It is like: water, ice and steam.  The Trinity has been affirmed by the church ever since Christ died.  See: Matt. 28:19 and 2 Corin. 13:14. When a person prays to receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior, the Holy Spirit comes into their heart, connecting them to God.

Jesus Christ was the “firstborn of all creation” and was created billions of years ago. He is not deity.  Christ was created as the Archangel Michael.

Jesus Christ was not created, but He is the Creator (Col. 1:16). Firstborn means “preeminent” over all creation.  Jesus is equal with the Father in His deity (John 10:30). Christ created Michael. No angel can be God’s Son & rule the world - Heb.1:5; Rev. 19:16.  The Archangel Michael and all the angels serve and worship God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit, who are three in One.

Jesus is a lesser God than the Father, for He is God’s “only begotten son.”  Jesus said, “The Father is greater than I.”

Jesus is equal with the Father in His divine nature.  Jesus was  positionally lower than the Father when He took on human likeness for 33 years while He was on earth (Phil. 2:6-11). He humbled Himself and came to earth & willingly died on the cross for our sins.

The Holy Spirit is not God, but an active impersonal  force to do God’s will in the world.

The Holy Spirit is a person with a mind, will, & emotions Who prays and speaks to people (John 15:26). He is fully God ‘cause He is all knowing, all powerful & always present.  See: 1 Cor. 2:10; Eph.4:30;  Psalm 139:7; Acts 5:3-4; Rom. 15:19

Birthdays are evil because in Gen. 40:20 & Matt. 14:6-10  two people died at a birthday party.

Birthdays should be celebrated. These verses simply prove that the rulers Pharoah and Herod were evil who commanded the chief baker and John the Baptist to be killed on their birthday.

Man does not have a soul that can survive death.  Hell is not an eternal place of suffering, but just a grave.

That's a lie. When a Christian dies their soul goes to heaven (Phil. 1:21-23). When an unbeliever dies their soul goes to hell, a place of great suffering for all eternity.  See Luke 16:19; Matt.25:46

   Would you like to Receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Have Eternal Life in Heaven?  Then Pray this Salvation Prayer:  “Heavenly Father, I believe You love me and that Your Son Jesus Christ died for me on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead.  Jesus, I repent for all of my sins. I repent for all the wrong things I have done.  I repent for believing those lies and now I believe the truth.  Now I ask You, Jesus,  to come into my heart and be my Lord and Savior. I want to live for You.  Holy Spirit, come fill me with Your power.  Thank You for loving and forgiving me, for saving me from hell, and giving me eternal life in heaven.  In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.”
