When speaking to Jehovah’s Witnesses it’s important to be prepared. They have a very literal interpretation of scripture. You cannot say the obvious things. I’m an exJW who would love to speak to JWs but cannot because I’m considered an “apostate “ since I no longer worship their organization. However I can offer some great tips for you. I love and respect what you’re doing as it requires so much patience and zeal. Jehovah’s Witnesses are the most difficult people to reach because of how the organization operates in keeping information from them while also giving them a false sense of confidence in scripture. Their arrogance comes from how many hours of study in their religion’s publications but not realizing they know nothing about the Bible as they think they do. They have an answer for everything so as long as it’s already been discussed in their meetings. If you present something in scripture that they never saw or wasn’t taught by their leaders, they will send you to their website. Basically saying “I don’t care to know what you’re showing me in scripture because it’s not important to me. The only thing that’s important to me is what the leaders in my religion teaches me.” For those who do care to know due to either wanting to be right or by having a sincere love for truth (the rare ones), I’ll give you 2 tips to engage them. #1 when discussing whether Jesus is a created Being because the word “firstborn” is used in Colossians 1:16, don’t talk about the Greek, just go to exodus 4:22-23 where God says Israel is His firstborn but they’re not the First Nation that ever existed and how can a nation be firstborn? Jeremiah 31:9 speaks of Ephraim being God’s first born when he was not the oldest, Manasseh was the first one born. Psalms 89:27 David is God’s firstborn. Ask the JW if there are any places in scripture where Jehovah calls someone His firstborn and it means anything else aside of being chosen, preeminence, etc? Let the Witnesses explain. They will say “jesus”. Push them to give another example to which they won’t be able to. So when God calls someone HIS firstborn we see that it always refers to inheritance, God’s chosen one. Preeminence, as stated in verse 18 of Colossians 1. After asking them to compare scripture you have accomplished the point that firstborn has more than one meaning and if read in context with verse 18 we can be sure it means preeminence in Colossians 1. They may say “each one is part of the group their preeminent over. Israel is a nation, David is a king, so Jesus is part of creation.. Ask them does scripture tell us that Israel is a nation? Yes it does. Does scripture tell us that David was a king? Yes it does. Does scripture say Ephraim was an Israelite? Yes it does. Does scripture say Jesus is created? Does it say He is a thing or does it say that all things came into existence through Him and apart from Him not even one ☝️ thing came into existence that came into existence?? (NWT John 1:3) So creation began with Him. (Revelation 3:14) Then move on literally do not allow them to continue on that any longer. If they side track by saying “all OTHER things” , take them to their website to their older Bible (1984 version) point out the brackets around the word “other” in Colossians 1:16-17 that was removed from their 2013 later bible versions. This signals that the writers added that word. Then ask them what does it mean when you read the passage without the word “other”? Have them read it out loud. Don’t pressure them to answer you, trust their egos or curiosity will make them go home and look into it. #2 Take them off the yellow brick road. Meaning don’t speak of the obvious things that we Christians say on TH-cam. Their leaders are watching and curbing their material to combat. So John 1:1 is to be saved for another day if you get it. They literally have talks at the meetings to dispute this. Instead hit them with : who should we confess and bow to and whose name is above all names according to the scriptures? Of course they will say Jehovah and quote psalms 83:18 like you heard. Then show them Isaiah 45:22-23 where Jehovah says “ turn to me and be saved …I am God and there is no other….To me every knee will bow by me every tongue will swear loyalty.” Ask them to compare Phil 2:9-11 where it says Jesus has the name above all names and every knee should bend of those who are in HEAVEN and on earth and those under ground. Every tongue should openly acknowledge that Jesus is Lord to the glory of God the Father.” Then leave it alone concluding that scripture says all who are in heaven and on earth should bow to Jehovah and Jesus and confess allegiance to both of them. BUT as written God says “I am God , there is no other.” Why do we give the same allegiance to the Son as we do Jehovah? The JW can try and reconcile that. John 5:22-23 can be compared as well. It brings glory to the Father that we honor the Son JUST AS we honor the Father. So who truly is Jehovah? Show them a few more contradictory scriptures and ask them to research it and get back to you. There is no Savior but one. Yet scripture says Jehovah and Jesus are our Savior . They’ll say yeah jesus was sent to save us so it is really Jehovah that saved us. Then show them how Jesus volunteered to save us by laying down His life through His love for us (1 John 3:16; John 15:13-16) The mission is not to change their minds but to place doubt in their minds of their own teachings. Show them something they haven’t seen before. -Why are all things through both Jehovah and Jesus? (Romans 11:33-36; 1 Corinthians 8:6; Colossians 1:16-17; John 1:3) -Why are both Jehovah and Jesus called the First and the last? (Isaiah 44:6-8; revelation 1:8, 17-18) I did this with my sister and then she made it all about the Bible translation I was reading from which was the king James but she could not say anything since it’s on their website JW.org. However I told her it’s in the new world translation as well. I think she just didn’t know what to say. They have shunned me since. My sister became scared because she wasn’t able to explain that. However through her pride for her religion she will stick to what she’s comfortable with. I’ve planted the seed it’s in Gods hands now. All I can do is pray for them. God bless you!
I grew up Jehovah Witness but left when I was 18 y/o. My mother stayed. She was a Jehovah Witness for over 40 years. But through prayer and my husband and I living before her at the age of 74 my mother left the organization and became a Christian a d was baptized. She passed at the age of 77 and I have her baptism video, it blessed me and shows the power of prayer and living before peoply
@@jaybrick8973 yep. Thats why Jesus said I have not come for the healed (those who thought they were healed like the pharisees), I came for the sick. Because its the ones who were sick (broken, desolate in spirit) that actually listened to him.
Until you believe Jesus is God in the flesh you aren't even born again. This is not about religion, this is about being born again by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit which only occurs when you believe he is the Word made flesh (God in the flesh). The Jehovah Witnesses, Mormons, Muslims, Buddhists, etc. are all the same. They believe he is just a man, a prophet. What distinguishes a true Christian is believing Jesus is God and being born again of the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit comes in you'll know the difference.
“I thought you said you wasn’t talking no more”. No lie it made me chuckle a little bit 😂. Great conversation obviously the two different belief systems combat one another but this conversation is good and necessary. People need to here the truth of Jesus Christ !
He said Jesus was their mediator. It’s interesting to note that The Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society doctrine doesn’t teach that Jesus is the mediator for all, but only for the 144,000. The organization is the mediator for the rest. There are parts of the doctrine they don’t even know.
@@benitaseale7432 Psalms 83:18) Jehovah is the Most High. (King james Bible) (luke 1:32) Calls Jesus the Son of the Most High. Jesus is Jehovah's Son (John 17:3) Eternal(Everlasting ) Life. Have to know them both.
I love the first two!! I just read the comment he can't use the word "bold" at all, but that doesn't seem right, people shouldn't be able to copyright (or whatever they've done) a word. But your ideas are GREAT!
After that I don’t know why she continued to interject again. I’d have told her again “excuse me, why do you persist on talking in a conversation you want no part of?!” Goodness that really irked me.
…She’s so hostile. Much love to her, good on Preston to have the patience and love for these folks. May the kindness and conviction of God be on their hearts.
100% that lady is my mother. Every time I try to reason with her I get the same tone and disrespect. The Organization is amazing at brainwashing people. Pray for them. 🙏🏼
This is so insane to watch for me. I grew up as a Jehovah’s Witness and have now set free by the blood of Jesus 🙌 but I try to preach to my Jehovah’s witnesses family all the time so I understand how frustrating it can be, but you are so calm and patient! Much respect bro and it’s so encouraging to see this
Jared, I'm curious, how does your family react, say, regarding Isaiah 6 and John 12? Isaiah 6 is Isaiah's vision of God in heaven, Jehovah. In John 12, John attributes Isaiah's vision to seeing JESUS. Jesus is the HE, HIM below. The passage is about Jesus. _37 But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on *HIM* : 38 That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed? 39 Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again, 40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. 41 *These things said Esaias, when he saw HIS [JESUS] glory,* and spake of *HIM* [JESUS] . 42 Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on *HIM* [JESUS]; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess *HIM* [JESUS] , lest they should be put out of the synagogue: 43 For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God. 44 Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me. 45 *And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.*
TruthHasSpoken I’ve never seen this before I’ll have to show them thank you! Typically whatever I say to them just to go back to their favorite argument of “how could God die”
@@jaredkish8716 All you can do is drop seeds. But Witnesses that I've spoken to struggle with the verses from Isaiah 6 and John 12 above. WT knows the WHAT God is but not the WHO. What God is - the one Divine Being What Jared is - a Human Being WHO God is - 3 persons WHO Jared is - 1 person That God is 3 persons is hinted at in the Old Testament but revealed in the New Testament. In the OT, right away in Gen 1, God says _26 “... Let _*_US_*_ make man in our image, after _*_OUR_*_ likeness_ The US hints at the Trinity, 3 persons. They also error greatly on the biblical understanding SONSHIP. My son has the same nature as me. Jesus as the Son of God has the same nature as God, Divine. And they error on what it is to BEGET. One begets what is of the same nature. One MAKES what is not of the same nature. CW Lewis had a famous passage on this topic, link is here : www.goodreads.com/quotes/157977-we-don-t-use-the-words-begetting-or-begotten-much-in Also, I ask them do they always do what Jehovah commands even if 8 fallible men disagree and teaching differently? Keep in mind regarding the passage below, that this is not a question of biblical interpretation of a greek word. The Watchtower taught that Jehovah COMMANDS that ALL WORSHIP JESUS. And if the WT can error on this, they can error on anything and must admit that Trinitarians could be right: Jesus is God incarnate. *_"Jehovah God commands all to worship Christ Jesus_*_ because Christ Jesus is the express image of his Father, Jehovah, and because he is the Executive Officer of Jehovah always carrying out Jehovah's purpose (Heb.:3-6).”_ (WT 1939 Nov 15 p.339)
After the lady in the black coat got proved wrong in Hebrews 1:5, she just gave it over to her false source and said no more questions. But had so much to say the whole first half of the video. People really gotta let go of that pride. The truth will set you free 💯
No she kept talking and forcing her sorry ass in every now and then. I was like “erm excuse me, I thought you didn’t want to talk anymore? Why is your sorry ass still talking?!?!”
You deserve a medal for putting up with that for sure incredible amount of patience shown thank you for this video this is exactly what we are battling with with my mom pray for her her name is Donna she has been a witness for almost sixty years and I got saved last year after 39 years of being in the Watchtower someone out in field service told me that there was something wrong with my Bible and because I had chosen to go to college and learned about conspiracy theories I took them up on the challenge and I investigated the New World Translation and I fell on my knees outside and literally cried out to God because I realized I didn't know him and I hadn't been serving him all along and Jesus saved my life now I'm trying to save my family pray for them God bless you brother
Every time Shay spoke I found myself holding my breath. There was so much aggression in her explanations. She believes so deeply that she couldn’t even allow you to finish before moving on to something else. All she cared about was proving you wrong 🤦🏽♀️
That's the sad part, really. She wasn't listening to understand but only to argue her point. I used to be like that, I'm glad that Christ has delivered me from that so that I would have a more teachable spirit.
@LSmoove 79 Wrong. No Jehovah’s Witness could ever be correct in scriptural interpretation. How can they? They receive their interpretation from 8 men who fumble when it comes to biblical hermeneutics.
I recently found out that Seventh Day Adventists believes this as well, but then they also believe he is the son of God and is God so it's weird. Can't get with that man.
@@siobhansyt Yeah, their beliefs are messed up and there’s no reasoning with them either. I’ve tried to show them things from the scripture but they don’t wanna hear it I guess :(
The Bible Calls Angels the (Son's) of the True God. (Genesis 6:1-4); (job 1:6); (Plsams 148: 2,5): (Job 2:1); (Job 38:7) Jesus is God's only (Begotten) Son but he is not God's (Only) Son
I love the quiet people that are listening to him.. those are the ones I think actually walk away with wrestling with what they are believing in ❤️ I love the Perry’s in all they do!!! God get your glory!!!
The ones who are quiet is quiet for a reason, everyone don’t need to talk at the same time. For 1, it would look like Preston can’t get his thoughts out and, 2) It would look like conversation being dominated. If all tried to talk at the same time then people will claim they was” disrespectful”.
I studied with JWs for about a year. I spent about 6-8 months just listening and learning what they believed and presented... I spent the last few months of the year contesting their teachings and they excommunicated me. I was hoping to get through to them, but they are taught to run if contested too much. The thing that blew me away was they can agree Jesus created everything and that John calls Jesus God... but deny Jesus IS God.
Which part of jw teachings did you contest? I did the same thing, yet came to realize it actually makes sense. I found what they taught actually is scriptural. To understand it, we must consider the entire Bible as a whole. So for myself I was satisfied with the answers I got. I guess when asking questions, a person's true Intent surfaces. Wether they're asking to debate and prove wrong, or to actually learn, and converse allowing the scriptures to speak for itself. The true intent of a person soon becomes obvious..
@mattparr3038 you know you are in a cult when they expel you for asking questions. I am Eastern Orthodox Christian and in my church the Bishop or preacher would never expel anyone for asking questions.
Psalms 83:18) Jehovah is the Most High. (King james Bible) (luke 1:32) Calls Jesus the Son of the Most High. Jesus is Jehovah's Son (John 17:3) Eternal(Everlasting ) Life. Have to know them both.
I truly enjoyed this video! I too WAS a Jehovah’s Witness and cannot believe how much I was brainwashed. You are so inspirational. Keep up the good work! God bless you 💕
How To Tell The Truth would actually be a perfect fit for this channel! Your book isn’t just a book title! You really live it out. It’s your life and what you’re graced to do!
God bless you Preston! No word of God returns void, it always accomplishes what it sets out to do. Praying that the seeds you had sown took root in their heart and that the Holy Spirit removed the veil from their eyes 🥸 amen
Here’s the thing. They don’t believe the Holy Spirit is anything but Gods active force. God doesn’t force himself on people, people are giving a choice. If they don’t believe in him, Jesus, then they can’t receive him, nor would they receive the holyspirit.
@@JulisaC But their minds were hardened. For to this day, when they read the old covenant, that same veil remains unlifted, because only through Christ is it taken away. (2 cor 3:14) In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God (2 cor 4:4) When praying for those who aren't saved, we ask God to remove the veil from their eyes which has blinded them from seeing the glory of Christ! Only in Christ is the veil removed. Blessings sis
I’ve always believed that, unless the Holy Spirit reveals the fullness of who He is to someone, they will never understand it or accept it from anyone else. I still believe these conversations are important because they plant a seed and they humble everyone involved because regardless of how much God reveals to us about who he is, he remains a wondrous mystery that we will never fully grasp until we meet face to face. This comment is long and dramatic lol but I was just inspired by the video. I admire your boldness and I am HERE for this content 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Not too long lol. I hope for that too! I was raised with incorrect teaching as well. Even had to be corrected with scripture before. I was shocked and felt offended those times but also encouraged to learn the truth and accept it for what it is. I'm glad that God is faithful and was patient enough for me to turn to him in repentance.
“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV)
@@archangeljesus4369 Hey wassup fam so that scripture says “But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” John 4:23-24 Those that worship him are all believers in him. When it comes to understanding God’s word, you have to read it all in full. Like baking a cake, the cake wouldn’t turn out to be the way it is if you just stick with one ingredient. In the book of acts on the day of the Pentecost, because Jesus ascended into heaven, he left us with the Holy Spirit that’s why the disciples went into speaking in tongues and that was their form of worshipping, not just in spirit but in truth.
She said that we can’t reason those thoughts on our own. Wow- it’s the true and transforming power of God through His Holy Spirit that gives revelation. Please Lord open their eyes. ❤️
True , like the opening words of the book of Revelation:" A Revelation by Jesus Christ, which God gave him. " ( Rev 1:1 ) Rev 5:6, 7: " At once he came forward and took it from the ' One' who was seated on the throne " Even in heaven Jesus doesn't appear to be the ' One ' whom he still refers to has his God and Father in heaven. Jesus still receives revelation. Listen to and read aloud the book of Revelation....heaven help you.
I feel like they're humanizing God and His attributes, especially about the resurrection. Like, if it doesn't make human sense, it can't be true... that's almost like saying you're on the same level with God. Idk if that makes sense but these people hurt my heart for real
Amen a great scripture, I’ve subscribed to your TH-cam channel and I now have started a youtube channel with 31 videos to date Kindly subscribe and share and comment and watch in Jesus name forevermore
@LSmoove 79 yes you’re right no one comes to Jesus unless the Father draws them. . Yes the Holy Spirit has been poured out on all flesh but the Holy Spirit doesn’t I dwell all flesh. The Holy Spirit draws us to the Lord Jesus for salvation. Acts 2:17. Salvation is only found in the Lord Jesus Christ as there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. Remember it’s the beginning of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ Mark 1;1. There is no other gospel other than the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Call on Jesus right now and have eternal life John 3:16. There is no use calling on Michael as he is only one of the chief princes and he worships the Lord Jesus Hebrews 1:6. There is no other way to the Father. Salvation is found only in the person of the Lord Jesus Christ Luke 19:9. You are either with Jesus or against Jesus. Jesus is the man: the God man. Philippians 2:4-10
There is a hardening of the heart for those led astray, sadly no matter how great we are at proving God's truth just as Jesus said, we cannot change a hardened heart, only God can.
This just goes to show how brainwashed they are to only get their Information from the JW website as opposed to expanding their searches. He has covered so much meanwhile they are still talking in circles.
Hi brother pls don’t stop making this videos, it has been very helpful and educational for all Christians that wish to share the gospel with all people. God bless. Tarcia from Uk
Wow! Preston this was good! Heated and towards the end they got quiet because they didn't know and they were definitely wrestling with the truth. Love this!
When the dude says Jesus dyin makes no sense,makes no sense. He’s tryin to limit an all powerful God who can do ALL things and give him a natural explanation for a supernatural event
The Bible says in Philippians 2, Jesus is equal to God, but in *humility* didn't consider it robbery not to be equal, so in humility He *became* a servant and made in the form of human likeness. This is why Jesus constantly talked about obeying the Father and doing nothing apart from the Father. He was teaching *us* how to be servants. This is why He prayed to the Father. This is even why He calls the Father "greater than I". God became human to show us how to serve Him. He became a servant in humility, and spoke of Himself from the perspective of a servant. Secondly, only Jesus' *body* died on the Cross. The Bible tells us God is Spirit. Jesus committed His spirit to the Father when His *body* died on the Cross. We even see the Bible talk about what Jesus DID after He died when he descended into hell to preach to the captives, *before* His Resurrection. The lady in the black coat is the "handler" .😂😂😂 She makes sure everyone sticks with the deception. Edit: I see you touched on that verse...I commented before the end.
These people need to read revalation, there's no arguing that. These people dont read the bible enough. And their religion was started by charles taze russell in 1841 by "his" own interpretation of the bible. Their bible was translated by 5 people who have no education in language which is why there are dicrepancies in it. Jesus specifically warned against adding too and taking away from the bible. They bend scripture & doctorine to fit their belief. And the name they use, vowels were taken from 3 different latin words. Ancient hebrew used only consonats & no vowels, pronunciations were passed down orally because of fear of GODS name being blasfemied. Calling GOD by a personal name other then LORD, FATHER or GOD is putting theirself on a level of equality. That is NOT being humble befor the FATHER. Shortly after i started reading the bible i realized Jesus was GOD in flesh. And this is my thought on the trinity: God the father, God the son & God the holy spirit. We only know what was made known to us. There are things not made known & i dont believe our human mind is capable of grasping it. My parents are JW & have been since i was 5, now 48, but im not, i do believe they are worshiping a false GOD & JESUS then in the bible. In my opinion they are a mis-guided taught & controlled cult. Only some wake up to realize it, goodluck trying to get them to see it.
@@howardstephens4585 I quote: "Jesus specifically warned against adding too and taking away from the bible. They bend scripture & doctrine to fit their belief." Ironic that you bring up this point tbh. 😂
You’re graced for this. We all have to get here. Your patience is on another level. And so is your ability to control the convo and stay on the topic at hand. Blessings, bro!
I was a Jehovah’s Witness for 30 years and when I found the real Jesus by reading the bible on its own I never new him at all before JW just say he’s a angel call Michael now I no the truth I am so happy 😁 to be a real Christian 🙏🙏🙏amen
We are saved by grace through faith. I'm grateful for the gift of knowing Jesus Christ. Prayers up for Preston because what he does with Apologetics is not easy at all. Praying also for the hearts of these people. The Son Sets Free

Before you confront any religion make sure you know it deeply ... so you can admonish with truths... and if they don’t wanna hear then you dust off your feet and keep it moving ...
The lack of any answer to the question “Was David the first born king?” is all we had to see. Thank you for this Preston. Can’t wait til you start doing these again🙏🏽nevertheless stay safe during these times
The lady gave point about David being called first born . David foreshadow Jesus. David wasn't a firstborn. It was God firstborn Son jesus that David foreshadow..that's why David is called a firstborn again because he foreshadow Jesus. Read Eze 34:24 my servant David
Jacob ACQUIRED the right of firstborn. David was APPOINTED firstborn by God the line of Judean kings. Jesus is ACTUALLY a firstborn by reason of God bringing him into existence FIRST. What connections do these firstborns have with each other? Psalms 78:51 Finally he struck down all the firstborn of Egypt, Weren't these ACTUAL FIRSTBORNS in their respective families?
He said "This dude was dead for 3 days, that dude was gone". The JW said that about Christ. !! Wooow. I felt horrible just repeating what he said. LORD forgive him, He know not what he's saying!!
Yeah. And his argument that Jesus couldn't raise himself from the dead - he might need to take that up with Jesus Himself who said to the religious leaders: "Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up." Speaking of his own body.
@LSmoove 79 Jesus raised Himself from the dead by God's power - I would agree with that because it agrees with the scriptures. In one scripture Jesus said He would raise His own body. Another scripture says God raised him. Another scripture says the Holy Spirit raised him. So yes according to scripture, Jesus raised His own body from the dead by the power of God's Spirit.
"A slave of the Lord does not need to fight, but be gentle towards all" You did good brother! I wasn't feeling 'love' from that woman talking. She was very defensive. Threatened maybe? Btw: Kingdom Interlinear cannot be found in any bookstore. It is a Jw publication.
I love watching a master at work! I would not be able to do what Preston does but I could stand to the side and pray for him to get through! So powerful listening to him!
She got real nasty at 20 mins in. She was insinuating you could not possibly be studying the Bible on your own accord and knowing how to look things up in a scholastic manner without being taught by another what she calls "trinitarian". That's rude as I don't know what. I could not have been so nice and patient as you Bro. Kuddos to you for calmly engaging in this back and forth. I think the gentleman might eventually look back on this and hear what you were saying.
I agree, the guy definitely seemed more open! She was just trying to argue her point and interrupting every time Preston tried to get a few words out 🤦🏽♀️.
Yea I had this happened to me , I Jehovah Witness had setup to me thinking that’s I didn’t my Jesus they’re was quite surprised that’s I had know more thing about my father then their children did. Lol I loved Jehovah Witness people sometimes they’re can be a little judge mental.
@LSmoove 79 Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Plain as day. Jesus is God in the flesh. Who else can forgive sin but God. That is why they (the Jews) wished him crucified for blaspheme. Had he been an ordinary man they would have been right!
@@tedhinshaw3174 .......plain as day? Look at the scripture you just quoted in Is 9:6, describing the Prince of peace as a mighty God, not as GOD ALMIGHTY. And Jesus was giving the power to judge & to forgive our sins. Yes, his Father gave him the authority to do those things, so he is not equal to God the Father. He was accused of blasphemy for claiming to be the son of God, not for claiming to be God Almighty. I could go on & on but I will close for now.
@@carolwrinkles6204 He, Jesus Christ was with the Father before all. He is the Word made flesh. He is The Father. Why did men bow down after being cleansed of an unholy spirit, and worship Jesus? Again, this would have been blaspheme
Throughout the Scriptures God is repeatedly termed the Almighty God. “I appeared unto Abraham, . . . by the name of God Almighty.” (Gen 17:1; Ex. 6:3; Ezek. 10:5) But his Son is merely termed a mighty one. “Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one.” “And his name shall be called . . . Mighty God.” (Ps. 45:3; Isa. 9:6, AS) Jesus appreciated this distinction. In replying to the religious leaders of his day, who accused him of blasphemy, he said: “Is it not written in your Law, ‘I said: You are gods’? If he called ‘gods’ those against whom the word of God came, and yet the Scripture cannot be nullified, do you say to me whom the Father sanctified and dispatched into the world, ‘You blaspheme,’ because I said, I am God’s Son?” (John 10:34-36, NW) Yes, Jesus did not claim to be The God, but only God’s Son.
25:40 "to me it makes sense" EXACTLY the point. We're not seeking it to make sense, we're seeking the TRUTH. It doesn't have to make sense to you. Consult the Bible, the Truth.
I haven't finished the whole video yet, but John 8:48-59 is a good passage to bring up as well. Especially "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM"

I don't know where you get your information from but they do read the New testament and the old testament and the Hebrew Israelites is not a religion it's a nationality according to the Bible.
@Bean team it's not a religion at all it's about history and nationality of those whom are God's Choosen people. And also what nationality of people fit the curses of Deuteronomy.
@@DiscipleMaking20 you’re right , but that’s what many of them make it to be. They’re identifying themselves from those in Deut. When really you can’t go that far back to see who’s blood you are of. The new covenant simply says “ those that are of Israel are not all Israel, it’s no longer Jew by the flesh but according to the spirit. The promise came by the spirit of Christ, through Faith. That’s how Abraham was counted righteous. Not by the works of the law: from what I’ve seen & heard, they’re different kinds of Hebrew Israelites who profess different things.
I was a baptized JW and I left the faith. Years and years later, I started reading the KJV bible and I began to realize that Jesus was much more than what I was taught. More than just an angel and more than just a man. I later saw that Jehovah was Jesus.
@arfer minute only difference in there bible is where Lord capital letter is Jehovah in which I read in kjv was LORD capital letters meant Jehovah but Jehovah is too holy of a name to be spoken by man so kjv replaced it w Lord. So right fully so
@arfer minute had kjv never done so in the 1st place ppl would understand Jehovah is God and Jesus is his son go back and check foe yourself ex6:3 ps 83:18
The bible says that Jesus created everything with the Father. Angels are created beings. So if Jesus was an angel how did he create himself? He couldn't. That means Jesus created the angels.

@YEEZY_ YT yes the word became flesh and lived among us. At the fullness of time God decided to dwell among him creating. There is nothing impossible with God who designed our DNA. . All blessings in Jesus name forevermore
@YEEZY_ YT He never disappeared. He always was there from the beginning of the Bible in Genesis to the end in Revelations. Why do you think the Bible says in Genesis "let's make man in OUR image". And who do you think David spoke to? Jesus was always there. Just like God's Spirit was always there.
@LSmoove 79 John 14:9-11 Jesus says HE is IN the Father and the Father in Him. None of us are IN God. John 8:58 Jesus said "Before Abraham was I AM." John 1:1 and John 1:14 says that: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." John 1:1 "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth." John 1:14 The Word is GOD. THE Word (God) was made flesh and lived in that flesh to dwell with mankind and die for mankind. The created flesh (Christ) is the Son, but God lived in that body. *Jesus is the Express Image of God* "Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high: Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they." Hebrews 1:3-4 *Jesus sits on the throne* "But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom." Hebrews 1:8 "And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne." Revelation 4:2 "To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne." Revelation 3:21 God has control over the angels right ? "I Jesus have sent *MINE* angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star." Revelation 22:16 *Prophecy of God coming as the only Savior* "I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour." Isaiah 43:11 "Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you. Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert." Isaiah 35:4-6 "The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one." Psalm 14:2-3 "I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:" Isaiah 45:5 So if there are no other saviours besides God being the Only God, and He saw no good man, He created an express image of Himself so that He could be the only savour of mankind. He begot a body, called it Christ, and allowee His Spirit to dwell in that body so that it could become the Lamb of God. That is why Jesus could not sin nor was He born into sin, because He is God in the flesh... Jeaus always existed, the physical Body of Christ has not. That is why Jesus said before Abraham, He was, he existed before him. God the Father saying these words: "And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely." Revelation 21:6 Jesus saying these words: "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last." Revelation 22:13 It is the same because The Father, Son and Holy Ghost ALL bear record as One Holy God. Jesus Is Lord.
This is what a cult looks and sound like. Notice how when you brought up psalms speaking about the word firstborn they couldn’t address it, and they stopped talking with Hebrews lol.... When they didn’t understand, “he humbled himself unto the point of death” I knew it was over... JW just need to be exposed and loved at the same time, through apologetics. Keep doing the good work bro
I mean so are we not going to act like the Roman Catholic Church started a cult with the doctrine of the trinity that main stream Christianity folllows till this day ?
@@JWillGames that’s false sir. Tertullian was the one who came up with the name Trinity. But the concept of the Trinity is all through scripture. I pray the Holy Spirit guide you in all truth and understanding the God of the Bible.

@LSmoove 79 If God himself has not preserved the exact pronunciation of his own name, then why today are some people persisting in going against his will? By allowing the exact pronunciation of his name to be lost, God is effaced in favor of his son who has received all power. Just as it was appropriate in the old days to be witnesses of YHWH for the Jews (central element of the Old Testament), so much so today to be witnesses of Jesus (central element of the New Testament). The NEW TESTAMENT clearly asks us to be WITNESSES OF JESUS and not of YHWH. We have the confirmation in Revelation 17: 6: "and I saw this woman drunk with the blood of the saints and the blood of the witnesses of JESUS." this prophetic text was to take place in the final period of days. Are we talking about the witnesses of YHWH here? NO While the NEW TESTAMENT expressly asks us to be witnesses of Jesus (Acts 1: 8), the WT will justify its designation as CHRISTIAN identifying itself exclusively with a verse from the OLD TESTAMENT (Isaiah 43:10) where YHWH addressed himself exclusively to the ISRAELITES who also knew the exact pronunciation of the sacred name. Would it have been imaginable at that time to hear the chosen people continually flay the holy name?
@@laymanphil8513 buttt we still have a God given right to praise YHWH because he Is God... right? We are witnesses of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ which is the High Priest. Luke 2:18- Glory in the Highest. But so you’re saying we are not born Israelites/Jews and we aren’t of the old testememt so we naturally don’t have a right to called God YHWH? I am trying to gain understanding. Not going against what you are teaching.
@@royaldominionauthorityglob4813 I'm just saying that no one today knows the excate pronunciation of YHWH unlike 3000 years ago. Despite everything, today the witnesses of YHWH persist in pronouncing the name of YHWH without knowing its true pronunciation. I think it is disrespectful to continually flay the holy name of YHWH. It would have been unimaginable to hear Moses or David use the wrong pronontiation.
God Bless you brother Preston!!! I really respect what you do and your boldness!!! I lack the patience that you have and THANK GOD ALWAYS for brothers and sisters like you!!!! ❤❤❤❤
They are so in self and what "they" believe and what "they" understand. This is the problem with religious people they can't get pass what they believe not God's actual word. If you say u believe in God u must also believe HIS word and HIS alone.
Wow, I have never interpreted that section of Philippians 2 in that way before. “How can someone humble himself to something that he’s already subject to?” So well said Preston. The very fact that Jesus humbled himself to death means that He willingly chose to die, unlike us who all must die in the flesh one day. Another great Scripture on this I think is John 10:17-18. Here, Jesus clearly Says that “For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again. No one takes it [His life] from me, but I lay it down of my own accord.” Keep this channel going dude, I learn so much from you.
Love this video. I noticed at 28min he started talking as if you were professing partialism (which you weren’t). This can be challenging as many of these folks haven’t spent much time wrestling with any of the nuances of scriptural theology. They will often assume heresy into your conversations due to their own lack of understanding. I haven’t spent much time refuting JWs in person but I can see they’ve willfully been made ignorant (by WT) of any of these challenging thoughts in order for the JWs to be more thoroughly indoctrinated and steered away from viable questions.
I am so happy I walked away from this cult. It feels great to be freed from mind control. Thank you Preston for your hard work and you are definitely being led by the Spirit of The Most High “Jesus replied, “Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up again.” Then the Jewish leaders said to him, “This temple has been under construction for forty-six years, and are you going to raise it up in three days?” But Jesus was speaking about the temple of his body.” John 2:19-21 NET
What stood out to me was the gentleman questioning Jesus dying and how could he die and raise Himself from the dead. He died in the flesh not in the spirit. His power is in His spirit, the spirit of God. Sometimes you have to dust your feet, pray for them and keep it moving. They acknowledge the Bible but do not accept its truth, there's a spirit behind that. I may have been inclined to ask them what they make of the following verse: By this you know and recognize the Spirit of God: every spirit that acknowledges and confesses [the fact] that Jesus Christ has [actually] come in the flesh [as a man] is from God [God is its source]; and every spirit that does not confess Jesus [acknowledging that He has come in the flesh, but would deny any of the Son’s true nature] is not of God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming, and is now already in the world. 1 John 4:2-3 AMP
That woman was really rude I think. Brother you have patience. What does she mean that all Trinitarian’s could not get that same reasoning on their own. L O L. That is exactly the way it works. If something is true! I was waiting for you to say that.:-) I wish you were still doing this. I’ve enjoyed all the ones I’ve watched.
As a former Jehovah’s witness I can appreciate this i now understand that the proverbs scripture that JWs use is in fact referencing to wisdom not Jesus... This was well done ! I know as a JW they will think about it but because they are so convinced that they are the “Truth” they will dismiss it and “Wait on Jehovah “ to give them “ new light “
Bold Encounters (BE) Tv I love your content bro I miss your street interviews. I hope you have more in the future. Thanks for what you're doing and I hope you and the family are doing well. God bless you all 💖
As a person who's first language is not English, It's interesting to see some of these debates that happen, seeing that the issue may be people's assumptions about the meaning of certain words. Some of these topics won't even become an issue in other languages (in my native language prototokos is translated "born before" rather than "firstborn" Sometimes I wonder if people fall into certain beliefs initially because of semantics and then after taking a stance they just feel they have to protect it at all cost and become too stubborn to think they might've been wrong. Preston, your patience, passion and compassion is amazing. It must be a divine gift. God bless you and your family.
What is equally interesting, is that many(if not most) of the arguments, will take place as a result of translation, rather than the parent text or words from which said translations were written. And moreso, that most people are under the impression that these translations take precedence over the parent texts - which is very bizarre to say the least.
@@tiffanywright6653 if ur logic is correct than u might ask then; why would he die on the cross? I dnt think u understand what the Lamb of GOD is & what it represents. Try to answer the question
I admire your patience and humility! I know that God has grace you for this. I was reading 2 Timothy 2:24-26- you were definitely able to teach, be patient, and humble to them while they were opposing what you were saying. As I was sitting here listening, my thoughts were "there's a key factor missing which is the Holy Spirit" which then I looked at their site which they do not believe in the Holy Spirit as a person. My heart breaks, thinking of the times I grew up reading scripture in Church to get an understanding of the scripture without the power of the Holy Spirit. Being saved now over a year and filled with the Holy Spirit is the only way I understand the word of God. The knowledge of God is unsearchable with the Holy Spirit.

When speaking to Jehovah’s Witnesses it’s important to be prepared. They have a very literal interpretation of scripture. You cannot say the obvious things. I’m an exJW who would love to speak to JWs but cannot because I’m considered an “apostate “ since I no longer worship their organization. However I can offer some great tips for you. I love and respect what you’re doing as it requires so much patience and zeal.
Jehovah’s Witnesses are the most difficult people to reach because of how the organization operates in keeping information from them while also giving them a false sense of confidence in scripture. Their
arrogance comes from how many hours of study in their religion’s publications but not realizing they know nothing about the Bible as they think they do. They have an answer for everything so as long as it’s already been discussed in their meetings. If you present something in scripture that they never saw or wasn’t taught by their leaders, they will send you to their website. Basically saying “I don’t care to know what you’re showing me in scripture because it’s not important to me. The only thing that’s important to me is what the leaders in my religion teaches me.”
For those who do care to know due to either wanting to be right or by having a sincere love for truth (the rare ones), I’ll give you 2 tips to engage them.
#1 when discussing whether Jesus is a created Being because the word “firstborn” is used in Colossians 1:16, don’t talk about the Greek, just go to exodus 4:22-23 where God says Israel is His firstborn but they’re not the First Nation that ever existed and how can a nation be firstborn? Jeremiah 31:9 speaks of Ephraim being God’s first born when he was not the oldest, Manasseh was the first one born. Psalms 89:27 David is God’s firstborn. Ask the JW if there are any places in scripture where Jehovah calls someone His firstborn and it means anything else aside of being chosen, preeminence, etc?
Let the Witnesses explain. They will say “jesus”. Push them to give another example to which they won’t be able to. So when God calls someone HIS firstborn we see that it always refers to inheritance, God’s chosen one. Preeminence, as stated in verse 18 of Colossians 1.
After asking them to compare scripture you have accomplished the point that firstborn has more than one meaning and if read in context with verse 18 we can be sure it means preeminence in Colossians 1. They may say “each one is part of the group their preeminent over. Israel is a nation, David is a king, so Jesus is part of creation.. Ask them does scripture tell us that Israel is a nation? Yes it does. Does scripture tell us that David was a king? Yes it does. Does scripture say Ephraim was an Israelite? Yes it does.
Does scripture say Jesus is created? Does it say He is a thing or does it say that all things came into existence through Him and apart from Him not even one ☝️ thing came into existence that came into existence?? (NWT John 1:3) So creation began with Him. (Revelation 3:14)
Then move on literally do not allow them to continue on that any longer. If they side track by saying “all OTHER things” , take them to their website to their older Bible (1984 version) point out the brackets around the word “other” in Colossians 1:16-17 that was removed from their 2013 later bible versions. This signals that the writers added that word. Then ask them what does it mean when you read the passage without the word “other”? Have them read it out loud.
Don’t pressure them to answer you, trust their egos or curiosity will make them go home and look into it.
#2 Take them off the yellow brick road. Meaning don’t speak of the obvious things that we Christians say on TH-cam. Their leaders are watching and curbing their material to combat. So John 1:1 is to be saved for another day if you get it. They literally have talks at the meetings to dispute this. Instead hit them with : who should we confess and bow to and whose name is above all names according to the scriptures?
Of course they will say Jehovah and quote psalms 83:18 like you heard.
Then show them Isaiah 45:22-23 where Jehovah says “ turn to me and be saved …I am God and there is no other….To me every knee will bow by me every tongue will swear loyalty.”
Ask them to compare Phil 2:9-11 where it says Jesus has the name above all names and every knee should bend of those who are in HEAVEN and on earth and those under ground. Every tongue should openly acknowledge that Jesus is Lord to the glory of God the Father.”
Then leave it alone concluding that scripture says all who are in heaven and on earth should bow to Jehovah and Jesus and confess allegiance to both of them. BUT as written God says “I am God , there is no other.”
Why do we give the same allegiance to the Son as we do Jehovah? The JW can try and reconcile that. John 5:22-23 can be compared as well. It brings glory to the Father that we honor the Son JUST AS we honor the Father. So who truly is Jehovah?
Show them a few more contradictory scriptures and ask them to research it and get back to you. There is no Savior but one. Yet scripture says Jehovah and Jesus are our Savior . They’ll say yeah jesus was sent to save us so it is really Jehovah that saved us. Then show them how Jesus volunteered to save us by laying down His life through His love for us (1 John 3:16; John 15:13-16) The mission is not to change their minds but to place doubt in their minds of their own teachings. Show them something they haven’t seen before.
-Why are all things through both Jehovah and Jesus? (Romans 11:33-36; 1 Corinthians 8:6; Colossians 1:16-17; John 1:3)
-Why are both Jehovah and Jesus called the First and the last? (Isaiah 44:6-8; revelation 1:8, 17-18)
I did this with my sister and then she made it all about the Bible translation I was reading from which was the king James but she could not say anything since it’s on their website JW.org. However I told her it’s in the new world translation as well. I think she just didn’t know what to say. They have shunned me since. My sister became scared because she wasn’t able to explain that. However through her pride for her religion she will stick to what she’s comfortable with. I’ve planted the seed it’s in Gods hands now. All I can do is pray for them.
God bless you!

This is like beating a dead horse. I admire your patience Preston.
I agree the hardest ppl to get saved are ones that think they already are
@@jaybrick8973 yep. Thats why Jesus said I have not come for the healed (those who thought they were healed like the pharisees), I came for the sick. Because its the ones who were sick (broken, desolate in spirit) that actually listened to him.
Until you believe Jesus is God in the flesh you aren't even born again. This is not about religion, this is about being born again by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit which only occurs when you believe he is the Word made flesh (God in the flesh). The Jehovah Witnesses, Mormons, Muslims, Buddhists, etc. are all the same. They believe he is just a man, a prophet. What distinguishes a true Christian is believing Jesus is God and being born again of the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit comes in you'll know the difference.

The issue is that they're limiting Jesus's ability off of what we as HUMANS can do. When Jesus is divine.
He said Jesus was their mediator. It’s interesting to note that The Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society doctrine doesn’t teach that Jesus is the mediator for all, but only for the 144,000. The organization is the mediator for the rest. There are parts of the doctrine they don’t even know.

Jared, I'm curious, how does your family react, say, regarding Isaiah 6 and John 12? Isaiah 6 is Isaiah's vision of God in heaven, Jehovah. In John 12, John attributes Isaiah's vision to seeing JESUS. Jesus is the HE, HIM below. The passage is about Jesus.
_37 But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on *HIM* :
38 That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?
39 Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,
40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
41 *These things said Esaias, when he saw HIS [JESUS] glory,* and spake of *HIM* [JESUS] .
42 Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on *HIM* [JESUS]; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess *HIM* [JESUS] , lest they should be put out of the synagogue:
43 For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.
44 Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.
45 *And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.*
TruthHasSpoken I’ve never seen this before I’ll have to show them thank you! Typically whatever I say to them just to go back to their favorite argument of “how could God die”
@@jaredkish8716 All you can do is drop seeds. But Witnesses that I've spoken to struggle with the verses from Isaiah 6 and John 12 above. WT knows the WHAT God is but not the WHO.
What God is - the one Divine Being
What Jared is - a Human Being
WHO God is - 3 persons
WHO Jared is - 1 person
That God is 3 persons is hinted at in the Old Testament but revealed in the New Testament. In the OT, right away in Gen 1, God says _26 “... Let _*_US_*_ make man in our image, after _*_OUR_*_ likeness_
The US hints at the Trinity, 3 persons.
They also error greatly on the biblical understanding SONSHIP. My son has the same nature as me. Jesus as the Son of God has the same nature as God, Divine. And they error on what it is to BEGET. One begets what is of the same nature. One MAKES what is not of the same nature. CW Lewis had a famous passage on this topic, link is here : www.goodreads.com/quotes/157977-we-don-t-use-the-words-begetting-or-begotten-much-in
Also, I ask them do they always do what Jehovah commands even if 8 fallible men disagree and teaching differently? Keep in mind regarding the passage below, that this is not a question of biblical interpretation of a greek word. The Watchtower taught that Jehovah COMMANDS that ALL WORSHIP JESUS. And if the WT can error on this, they can error on anything and must admit that Trinitarians could be right: Jesus is God incarnate.
*_"Jehovah God commands all to worship Christ Jesus_*_ because Christ Jesus is the express image of his Father, Jehovah, and because he is the Executive Officer of Jehovah always carrying out Jehovah's purpose (Heb.:3-6).”_ (WT 1939 Nov 15 p.339)

Every time Shay spoke I found myself holding my breath. There was so much aggression in her explanations. She believes so deeply that she couldn’t even allow you to finish before moving on to something else. All she cared about was proving you wrong 🤦🏽♀️
That's the sad part, really. She wasn't listening to understand but only to argue her point. I used to be like that, I'm glad that Christ has delivered me from that so that I would have a more teachable spirit.
Correct sister

She isn’t teachable but very argumentative.

Wrong. No Jehovah’s Witness could ever be correct in scriptural interpretation. How can they? They receive their interpretation from 8 men who fumble when it comes to biblical hermeneutics.
Jesus isn’t Michael the archangel. Angels don’t forgive sin. Only God forgives sin. Jesus is God Amen.

Brilliant. You've done your homework and brought it with patience, kindness, and truth. Well done good and faithful servant.
I studied with JWs for about a year. I spent about 6-8 months just listening and learning what they believed and presented... I spent the last few months of the year contesting their teachings and they excommunicated me. I was hoping to get through to them, but they are taught to run if contested too much.
The thing that blew me away was they can agree Jesus created everything and that John calls Jesus God... but deny Jesus IS God.

Which part of jw teachings did you contest? I did the same thing, yet came to realize it actually makes sense. I found what they taught actually is scriptural. To understand it, we must consider the entire Bible as a whole. So for myself I was satisfied with the answers I got. I guess when asking questions, a person's true Intent surfaces. Wether they're asking to debate and prove wrong, or to actually learn, and converse allowing the scriptures to speak for itself. The true intent of a person soon becomes obvious..
@mattparr3038 you know you are in a cult when they expel you for asking questions. I am Eastern Orthodox Christian and in my church the Bishop or preacher would never expel anyone for asking questions.

I’ve always believed that, unless the Holy Spirit reveals the fullness of who He is to someone, they will never understand it or accept it from anyone else.
I still believe these conversations are important because they plant a seed and they humble everyone involved because regardless of how much God reveals to us about who he is, he remains a wondrous mystery that we will never fully grasp until we meet face to face.

@LSmoove 79 yes you’re right no one comes to Jesus unless the Father draws them. . Yes the Holy Spirit has been poured out on all flesh but the Holy Spirit doesn’t I dwell all flesh. The Holy Spirit draws us to the Lord Jesus for salvation. Acts 2:17. Salvation is only found in the Lord Jesus Christ as there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. Remember it’s the beginning of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ Mark 1;1. There is no other gospel other than the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Call on Jesus right now and have eternal life John 3:16. There is no use calling on Michael as he is only one of the chief princes and he worships the Lord Jesus Hebrews 1:6. There is no other way to the Father. Salvation is found only in the person of the Lord Jesus Christ Luke 19:9. You are either with Jesus or against Jesus. Jesus is the man: the God man. Philippians 2:4-10
You explained to them what "firstborn" means like 60 times and they still "couldnt" accept it. Sad that people dont WANT truth.

Amen! As I was hearing the words come out of his mouth my heart hurt. They are a cult for real.
"How can you humble yourself that you are already held subject to??" Crushing statement
The Bible says in Philippians 2, Jesus is equal to God, but in *humility* didn't consider it robbery not to be equal, so in humility He *became* a servant and made in the form of human likeness.
This is why Jesus constantly talked about obeying the Father and doing nothing apart from the Father. He was teaching *us* how to be servants. This is why He prayed to the Father. This is even why He calls the Father "greater than I".
God became human to show us how to serve Him. He became a servant in humility, and spoke of Himself from the perspective of a servant.
Secondly, only Jesus' *body* died on the Cross. The Bible tells us God is Spirit. Jesus committed His spirit to the Father when His *body* died on the Cross. We even see the Bible talk about what Jesus DID after He died when he descended into hell to preach to the captives, *before* His Resurrection.
The lady in the black coat is the "handler" .😂😂😂 She makes sure everyone sticks with the deception.
Edit: I see you touched on that verse...I commented before the end.
These people need to read revalation, there's no arguing that. These people dont read the bible enough. And their religion was started by charles taze russell in 1841 by "his" own interpretation of the bible. Their bible was translated by 5 people who have no education in language which is why there are dicrepancies in it. Jesus specifically warned against adding too and taking away from the bible. They bend scripture & doctorine to fit their belief. And the name they use, vowels were taken from 3 different latin words. Ancient hebrew used only consonats & no vowels, pronunciations were passed down orally because of fear of GODS name being blasfemied. Calling GOD by a personal name other then LORD, FATHER or GOD is putting theirself on a level of equality. That is NOT being humble befor the FATHER. Shortly after i started reading the bible i realized Jesus was GOD in flesh. And this is my thought on the trinity: God the father, God the son & God the holy spirit. We only know what was made known to us. There are things not made known & i dont believe our human mind is capable of grasping it. My parents are JW & have been since i was 5, now 48, but im not, i do believe they are worshiping a false GOD & JESUS then in the bible. In my opinion they are a mis-guided taught & controlled cult. Only some wake up to realize it, goodluck trying to get them to see it.

The lack of any answer to the question “Was David the first born king?” is all we had to see. Thank you for this Preston. Can’t wait til you start doing these again🙏🏽nevertheless stay safe during these times
The lady gave point about David being called first born . David foreshadow Jesus. David wasn't a firstborn. It was God firstborn Son jesus that David foreshadow..that's why David is called a firstborn again because he foreshadow Jesus. Read Eze 34:24 my servant David
Jacob ACQUIRED the right of firstborn. David was APPOINTED firstborn by God the line of Judean kings.
Jesus is ACTUALLY a firstborn by reason of God bringing him into existence FIRST.
What connections do these firstborns have with each other?
Psalms 78:51 Finally he struck down all the firstborn of Egypt,
Weren't these ACTUAL FIRSTBORNS in their respective families?
He said "This dude was dead for 3 days, that dude was gone". The JW said that about Christ. !! Wooow. I felt horrible just repeating what he said. LORD forgive him, He know not what he's saying!!
Rightttt
Yeah. And his argument that Jesus couldn't raise himself from the dead - he might need to take that up with Jesus Himself who said to the religious leaders: "Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up." Speaking of his own body.
@LSmoove 79 Jesus raised Himself from the dead by God's power - I would agree with that because it agrees with the scriptures.
In one scripture Jesus said He would raise His own body. Another scripture says God raised him. Another scripture says the Holy Spirit raised him.
So yes according to scripture, Jesus raised His own body from the dead by the power of God's Spirit.

Throughout the Scriptures God is repeatedly termed the Almighty God. “I appeared unto Abraham, . . . by the name of God Almighty.” (Gen 17:1; Ex. 6:3; Ezek. 10:5) But his Son is merely termed a mighty one. “Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one.” “And his name shall be called . . . Mighty God.” (Ps. 45:3; Isa. 9:6, AS) Jesus appreciated this distinction. In replying to the religious leaders of his day, who accused him of blasphemy, he said: “Is it not written in your Law, ‘I said: You are gods’? If he called ‘gods’ those against whom the word of God came, and yet the Scripture cannot be nullified, do you say to me whom the Father sanctified and dispatched into the world, ‘You blaspheme,’ because I said, I am God’s Son?” (John 10:34-36, NW) Yes, Jesus did not claim to be The God, but only God’s Son.

That is why Jesus could not sin nor was He born into sin, because He is God in the flesh...
Jeaus always existed, the physical Body of Christ has not. That is why Jesus said before Abraham, He was, he existed before him.
God the Father saying these words:
"And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely."
Revelation 21:6
Jesus saying these words:
"I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last."
Revelation 22:13
It is the same because The Father, Son and Holy Ghost ALL bear record as One Holy God.
Jesus Is Lord.
This is what a cult looks and sound like. Notice how when you brought up psalms speaking about the word firstborn they couldn’t address it, and they stopped talking with Hebrews lol.... When they didn’t understand, “he humbled himself unto the point of death” I knew it was over... JW just need to be exposed and loved at the same time, through apologetics. Keep doing the good work bro
I mean so are we not going to act like the Roman Catholic Church started a cult with the doctrine of the trinity that main stream Christianity folllows till this day ?
@@JWillGames that’s false sir. Tertullian was the one who came up with the name Trinity. But the concept of the Trinity is all through scripture. I pray the Holy Spirit guide you in all truth and understanding the God of the Bible.
Finally!!It's been 3 months brother lol. God bless you, because of this channel I've learned how to evangelize more effectively.Praise the Lord🙂✝️🙏🏾💯!!
Please continue these encounters! We need this soo bad because it teaches us that we need to be kind and not be so harsh on people
Jehovah's Witnesses are actually the Watchtower's Witnesses
Facts
@LSmoove 79
Will you be willing to debate the subject?
@LSmoove 79 If God himself has not preserved the exact pronunciation of his own name, then why today are some people persisting in going against his will? By allowing the exact pronunciation of his name to be lost, God is effaced in favor of his son who has received all power. Just as it was appropriate in the old days to be witnesses of YHWH for the Jews (central element of the Old Testament), so much so today to be witnesses of Jesus (central element of the New Testament). The NEW TESTAMENT clearly asks us to be WITNESSES OF JESUS and not of YHWH. We have the confirmation in Revelation 17: 6: "and I saw this woman drunk with the blood of the saints and the blood of the witnesses of JESUS." this prophetic text was to take place in the final period of days. Are we talking about the witnesses of YHWH here? NO While the NEW TESTAMENT expressly asks us to be witnesses of Jesus (Acts 1: 8), the WT will justify its designation as CHRISTIAN identifying itself exclusively with a verse from the OLD TESTAMENT (Isaiah 43:10) where YHWH addressed himself exclusively to the ISRAELITES who also knew the exact pronunciation of the sacred name. Would it have been imaginable at that time to hear the chosen people continually flay the holy name?
@@laymanphil8513 buttt we still have a God given right to praise YHWH because he Is God... right? We are witnesses of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ which is the High Priest. Luke 2:18- Glory in the Highest. But so you’re saying we are not born Israelites/Jews and we aren’t of the old testememt so we naturally don’t have a right to called God YHWH? I am trying to gain understanding. Not going against what you are teaching.
@@royaldominionauthorityglob4813 I'm just saying that no one today knows the excate pronunciation of YHWH unlike 3000 years ago. Despite everything, today the witnesses of YHWH persist in pronouncing the name of YHWH without knowing its true pronunciation. I think it is disrespectful to continually flay the holy name of YHWH. It would have been unimaginable to hear Moses or David use the wrong pronontiation.
The whole thing is its not about what YOU think or what I think its about what THUS SAID THE LORD PERIOD
I literally commend you for you extreme patience. Thank you for motivating me today to work on my patience
God Bless you brother Preston!!! I really respect what you do and your boldness!!! I lack the patience that you have and THANK GOD ALWAYS for brothers and sisters like you!!!! ❤❤❤❤
They are so in self and what "they" believe and what "they" understand. This is the problem with religious people they can't get pass what they believe not God's actual word. If you say u believe in God u must also believe HIS word and HIS alone.
Wow, I have never interpreted that section of Philippians 2 in that way before. “How can someone humble himself to something that he’s already subject to?” So well said Preston. The very fact that Jesus humbled himself to death means that He willingly chose to die, unlike us who all must die in the flesh one day. Another great Scripture on this I think is John 10:17-18. Here, Jesus clearly Says that “For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again. No one takes it [His life] from me, but I lay it down of my own accord.” Keep this channel going dude, I learn so much from you.
Thanks th-cam.com/video/eL7BIGnj4SA/w-d-xo.html
I love it ❤🙏🙌
How can you truly be saved by Jesus if you don't even know who He is? Smh they need to repent.
So true! That’s why it’s so important to grasp the concept of who God is. This is not a point where we can agree to disagree.
Yes!
This !
they aren't saved
@@BrotherDave80 some are
Love this video. I noticed at 28min he started talking as if you were professing partialism (which you weren’t). This can be challenging as many of these folks haven’t spent much time wrestling with any of the nuances of scriptural theology. They will often assume heresy into your conversations due to their own lack of understanding. I haven’t spent much time refuting JWs in person but I can see they’ve willfully been made ignorant (by WT) of any of these challenging thoughts in order for the JWs to be more thoroughly indoctrinated and steered away from viable questions.
Glad to see youre back!! I love these type of videos.
“You can’t show the counterfeit if you don’t know the genuine.”
preach!!
True
I am so happy I walked away from this cult. It feels great to be freed from mind control. Thank you Preston for your hard work and you are definitely being led by the Spirit of The Most High
“Jesus replied, “Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up again.” Then the Jewish leaders said to him, “This temple has been under construction for forty-six years, and are you going to raise it up in three days?” But Jesus was speaking about the temple of his body.”
John 2:19-21 NET
thats a nice scripture !
“I thought you said you wasn’t talking no more” 😂😂😂 23:22
Welcome back! I can’t wait to see what you got planned coming up
I love your content bro dont stop spreading the gospel
"Destroy this temple and I will rebuild it in three days"
Acts 5:30) (Acts 10:38)
And "I" will rebuild in three days. How can they miss that
Hats off to you my brother. You stayed out there talking with them way longer than I ever could have.
So they believe Jesus the Lord is Archangel Michael? That is crazy talk
They also believe only 144,000 ppl make it into heaven there doctrine is all wrong smh
@@jaybrick8973 there should then be only 144 000 jw in the world
Yes, and I think they also believe that lucifer and Jesus are brothers also... Thats crazy.. scripture don't teach that.
@@nadinebelongstojesuschrist2319 that is crazy! I do remember hearing that before thank you for reminding me
Seventh Day Adventist believes the same thing. They believe that Michael the archangel is another name for Jesus. Ellen G. White is a false prophet.
What stood out to me was the gentleman questioning Jesus dying and how could he die and raise Himself from the dead. He died in the flesh not in the spirit. His power is in His spirit, the spirit of God. Sometimes you have to dust your feet, pray for them and keep it moving. They acknowledge the Bible but do not accept its truth, there's a spirit behind that.
I may have been inclined to ask them what they make of the following verse:
By this you know and recognize the Spirit of God: every spirit that acknowledges and confesses [the fact] that Jesus Christ has [actually] come in the flesh [as a man] is from God [God is its source]; and every spirit that does not confess Jesus [acknowledging that He has come in the flesh, but would deny any of the Son’s true nature] is not of God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming, and is now already in the world. 1 John 4:2-3 AMP
Wow, you have some serious patience.
That woman was really rude I think. Brother you have patience. What does she mean that all Trinitarian’s could not get that same reasoning on their own. L O L. That is exactly the way it works. If something is true! I was waiting for you to say that.:-) I wish you were still doing this. I’ve enjoyed all the ones I’ve watched.
As a former Jehovah’s witness I can appreciate this i now understand that the proverbs scripture that JWs use is in fact referencing to wisdom not Jesus... This was well done ! I know as a JW they will think about it but because they are so convinced that they are the “Truth” they will dismiss it and “Wait on Jehovah “ to give them “ new light “
AAMEN!!!!
by jehova you mean them 8 old dudes
Bold Encounters (BE) Tv
I love your content bro I miss your street interviews. I hope you have more in the future. Thanks for what you're doing and I hope you and the family are doing well. God bless you all 💖
I like this one
I grew up as a witness, for the most part a group of genuine & wonderful ppl. Thnx for the video Sir, keep working 💪🙏.
I have a different experience with them.
As a person who's first language is not English, It's interesting to see some of these debates that happen, seeing that the issue may be people's assumptions about the meaning of certain words. Some of these topics won't even become an issue in other languages (in my native language prototokos is translated "born before" rather than "firstborn"
Sometimes I wonder if people fall into certain beliefs initially because of semantics and then after taking a stance they just feel they have to protect it at all cost and become too stubborn to think they might've been wrong.
Preston, your patience, passion and compassion is amazing. It must be a divine gift. God bless you and your family.
What is equally interesting, is that many(if not most) of the arguments, will take place as a result of translation, rather than the parent text or words from which said translations were written. And moreso, that most people are under the impression that these translations take precedence over the parent texts - which is very bizarre to say the least.
Let’s pray for them y’all! Much love
How about “Love Truth” TV??
Nice
Ayee
i like
These ppl are lost. Shay thinks GOD cannot become flesh. When the ALLMIGHTY Jesus/GOD can do whatever he wants!!!
Read (1st kings 8:27) & (Acts 17:24-25) God Would never come in Flesh
@@tiffanywright6653 Acts 17:24-25 does not imply that at all
@@tiffanywright6653 Jesus sat aside His glory to come into flesh. He showed Peter James and John a glimpse of His glory on that mountain
@@tiffanywright6653 if ur logic is correct than u might ask then; why would he die on the cross? I dnt think u understand what the Lamb of GOD is & what it represents. Try to answer the question
@LSmoove 79 read Isaiah 53 in the old testament. It will help u understand what Jesus meant when he was asked if he was God. He replied; "I AM"
I admire your patience and humility! I know that God has grace you for this. I was reading 2 Timothy 2:24-26- you were definitely able to teach, be patient, and humble to them while they were opposing what you were saying. As I was sitting here listening, my thoughts were "there's a key factor missing which is the Holy Spirit" which then I looked at their site which they do not believe in the Holy Spirit as a person. My heart breaks, thinking of the times I grew up reading scripture in Church to get an understanding of the scripture without the power of the Holy Spirit. Being saved now over a year and filled with the Holy Spirit is the only way I understand the word of God. The knowledge of God is unsearchable with the Holy Spirit.
When you ask if David was the firstborn king and they beat around the question
I was done at the 18min mark. You gave the Greek word, the definition, the same word used in another scripture and SHE still did not get it. Wow
"Bold Apologetics" or "Bold Christianity"
Great witnessing my brother and sisters, Jehovah & Jesus proud of you for telling the truth ❤
