Actually JW's believe only 144,000 of their members past and present are "born again" and heaven bound. The rest of them are of the Great crowd which will live forever on a cleansed earth in the Kingdom of God. According to John chapter 3 unless one is born again he cannot even see the kingdom of God. A verse or two later He also says unless one is born of water and spirit he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. The current JW's knocking at your door have a problem. They are not "born of water and spirit". How can they possibly think they can see the Kingdom of God let alone enter into it?
@@johnc.8298When the true Gospel of the kingdom is preached, it is the living waters that flow from the belly, so it is preaching how that Yahshua the messiah died, was buried and resurrected from the Dead and was raised a quickening spirit, or life giving spirit, give all praise and glory only to Yahweh through his name of salvation Yahshua,HALLELUYAH
I used to just study with the JW's and although I was considering getting baptized, the more I learned, the more turned off I was. I don't like the teaching that the "Organization" is the way to Jehovah, and YES that is one of their teachings. With that in mind, they believe that the magazines and books are infallible as they allegedly are written by the Governing Body of "anointed" brothers. This is very dangerous. They let the Organization TELL them what to believe AND they taught me that without the publications Bible comprehension is impossible. I am grateful that I never got baptized into the organization. My niece is a dis-fellowshipped JW and her own MOM will NOT have anything to do with her. It has destroyed her faith and desire to seek God. Jesus never shunned anyone. And, I do believe that to put the wicked man out of the congregation does NOT mean to never speak to them or encourage them to repent. It's a Satanic teaching. Thank you for your video. I am a new subsciber :-)
Powerful testimony and much sadness for anyone that believes shunning to be a practice of a loving God who never shuns us and celebrates IMMEDIATELY when one comes back (Prodigal Son) and not the 2-week practice of the JW's. I studied with the JW's for 10 months asking questions and seeking answers that were often ignored or just glossed over with limited discussion, an opportunity to change the subject to avoid truth being exposed. When I learned that baptism did not use standard Biblical baptism (in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) but instead "baptized in the name of Jehovah’s organization and make sure that the candidate understands that “the good and acceptable and perfect will of God” is nothing less than absolute obedience to the Watchtower Organization" I knew I was part of a cult for certain.
@@roberttaylor6075 can you provide a verse from the New Testament where God shunned someone for a reference? I'm not interested in the Old Testament as we are in the NEW age of grace which is the time frame that we can apply to modern time. Old Testament time when lambs were sacrificed for forgiveness and other old concepts are no longer applicable today.
@@georgebauerschmidt5289 could you show me a verse that in the new testament that says disregard the old testament and anything in it and just use the new testament. Out of interest what religion do you follow.
@@roberttaylor6075 religion is a man-made construct so there is no need to follow any particular one. Jesus said to follow Him. Paul preached the same, never advocating for a religion. No religion provides salvation. Salvation comes by FAITH alone in Jesus. (Romans 10:9-10, Acts 2:21, John 3:16, Acts 16:31, Ephesians 2:8-9) Also, if we follow the Old Testament in modern days, when was the last time a lamb was sacrificed for sins? Do we follow the civil codes of Leviticus where we kill kids that disobey parents? Or those who curse their father or mother are put to death? Or any married woman who commits adultery is put to death? What about the Sabbath ,part of the 10 commandments, is it strictly followed today? Once again, please show me a verse where God/Jesus shunned someone in our modern age of the New Testament. How about a verse or parable that shows the complete OPPOSITE! Consider the parable about the Prodigal Son. It does not teach shunning, just the opposite. A son disobeys his father and goes off on his own to experience "the world" but when he chooses to repent and returns, he is welcome IMMEDIATELY with open arms, joy, fellowship and acceptance. Did the son have to sit in the back of the home, not talk to anyone, look sorrowful, write a letter requesting to be reinstated and wait months to determine if the he is repentant enough? NO! JW's use anti-biblical practices which have no place in any religion.
GBU Brother! Here's another verse that is extremely clear: "Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me and see; for a SPIRIT hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have." This declaration was given, after He had appeared to them, quoting: "Peace be unto you."; and they became terrified, thinking that He was a spirit! (Luke 24:33-39). Keep the good work! 🌹
@Scott4200good question. It’s because after he was risen he was glorified so because of that he had a glorified body look back to when Jehovah appeared to Abraham in genesis 18:1-5 you can see they ate also because it was Jesus that appeared to him along with his angels for no one has seen the father at any time. But as Jesus said before Abraham was, I AM. The reference to that is when the same as when Moses said who should I tell them sent me? The the LORD said tell them I AM who I AM sent you.
@Scott4200 dude are you fr? I just answered one he wasn’t tied down by being a man once he was glorified he had a totally different way of moving he already had the power to do everything as a man while being in gods form. Once he rose from the dead. He had the same body he promised all who believe on his name and repent of their sins. “Have a changing of mind” and walk accordingly to the spirit and not according to the flesh.
@Scott4200 why did Tomas say to him once he finally understood when he said my Lord “and” my God? Isaiah 9:6 should clear it up for you let the meter be established on the witness of two that’s why the Old Testament was written of Jesus preparing the way for god to take on bodily form and redeem man from sin. He became sun so that we may become righteous.
I used not to be a Christian who dig deep into scripture, until a day when JWs told me we had to pray to only Jehovah, not Jesus, that Jesus is Angel Michael (qouted in watch tower magazine).. Jesus is not God... This sounded strange , i started to re study the bible with empty mind like a new kid, but believe me, most of the things they told me, about Jesus were completely out of context...I love them and pray God brings them to light,
The question is: 'Whom did God SEND from heaven to become the Messiah?' (Galatians 4:4) But when the full limit of the time arrived, God SENT HIS SON, who was born of a woman and who was under law, Could it have been just any angel? 'To WHICH of the ANGELS did God say...' - Hebrews 1:5,13. Give it some thought. Let me know is an answer comes to one's mind.
My dad used to invite them into our home. He had his Bible. They always left in a hurry after a few questions. You are right on!!!!! Thx brother. I thank Yahuauh has lifted my wisdom to where it is. Praise my Savior Jahushua.
Samuel I was a member of the Mormon Church for 50 years, and I find it so similar that when either are challenged that they have an ever changing gospel.
Oh, look at the bible already, and it makes your eyebrows lift in many parts....such is the way that it is. We live in a different time, and culture. So what's new? You know the LDS is true and a beautiful church serving Jesus, and living out the truths of the gospel together and with each other and the world like none other. The most supportive church I have ever met.
Sorry folks I have been caught up in work and life that I haven’t been able to keep up, plus I assist in a community program to develop young software developers. Trying to make an impact on their lives
Thank you Sir for sharing this with us. I have been studying with some JW and I asked them about these same verses. They told me that they have to do more research. They never came back to me with an answer but always want to come with other subjects. Next time I will insist to have an answer or no more study.
Though their teachings aren't common christian dogma , they do point to multiple scriptures Luke 24:31, John 20:26, doors were locked, yet he appeared inside. John 20:14 If he did reappear in the same body, why would people not recognize him? 3 times. Even Mary. John 21:4-8(but that convo was 300 ft apart) Scriptures that may apply: And 2 cor 5:16(nkjv) "Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer." Or 1 tim 3 : 16 (nwt) "He was made manifest in flesh, was declared righteous in spirit, appeared to angels... ... was received up in glory." If Jesus existed as an angel before his human birth he may have returned to that realm of existence. Would his human body be essential or may have Jesus been speaking, NOT about his literal flesh? Remember, he also said "unless you eat this flesh...." Did he mean his literal muscles and tendons? Shrugs
You can also share this scripture with them out of their own bible. Luke 24:39 See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself; touch me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones just as you see that I have.” NWT

@@seekr6964 you men are just hoping and fishing for somethings that you cannot catch. Nor you understand Jehovah's Word that you've had for years. It's because of your Pharisee mentality. You know Jesus? Not!
This works. And God gave it to me in the moment when I was street witnessing in Augusta GA. The JWs had booths and people on both sides of the road for 2 miles going to the Augusta National Master's Golf Tourney a few years back. I stopped at every booth and witnessed to them. Finally, they sicked an elder on me when they couldn't answer my questions, and in the moment I asked the elder "Who raised Jesus from the dead?". He said God. I said "good we agree, Jesus is God!" He says NO NO NO Jesus isn't God! I took him to that verse and asked him if he was calling Jesus a liar? No answer. They have not been back to that tournament since!
(Acts 2:32) God resurrected this Jesus, and of this we are all witnesses. Perhaps Peter got it wrong???? If dead persons can resurrect themselves, God will be without a job.
@@tongakhan230 There is no contradiction here if you believe in the Trinity. You, however, are still stuck with the problem of did Jesus lie when he said that He would raise his body from the dead. Remember we believe that Jesus IS God. So, no. Peter was absolutely correct.
@@tempermode : Where exactly did Jesus ever claim that he could resurrect himself. Impossible though it be. Dead persons do not exist. How can someone who does not exist do anything? Psalms 146:3 Do not put your trust in princes Nor in a son of man, who cannot bring salvation. 4 His spirit goes out, he returns to the ground; On that very day his thoughts perish. (See also Eccl 9:5,10). And why would eyewitnesses testify that it was God who brought Jesus back into existence? Acts 3:15 whereas you KILLED the Chief Agent of life. BUT GOD RAISED HIM UP FROM THE DEAD, of which FACT WE ARE WITNESSES.
You might want to read my reply. And if you have any questions from it. Please request it and hear what we believe through us not someone that isn't one of us.
But we always want to go back to the Bible which teaches us we are to say the word and the Holy Spirit will do the teaching. The word is the most important, love is just what we are to do
Jerry Perez, I appreciate that. But approach us? Most run and avoid us! Ask yourself why? Are we terrorist, murderers, or teachers of God's word? We show people the solution to all problems even we have problems ourselves. No one will be problem free until Jehovah and Jesus ends them. Jehovah decides when and Jesus will carry it out! So who shows the love? It's Jehovah God the Almighty! We show the love to you! We want you to know. We see the signs and hope that you respond to save yourselves as Jehovah's day approaches.
But why do you have to approach JEHOVAH'S Witnesses? Do you approach Catholics, Muslims, what about Isis? What makes you think that you are a Christian? Do you know that a Christian is a follower of CHRIST? And he who claims to know him yet they do not obey his commands is a liar and the truth is not in him?(1 John 2 v4) Jesus gave a command at Acts1 v8 Jehovah's witnesses obey it . DO YOU? What about Acts5 v 42 Acts20 v20 Matthew 24 v14 Matthew 28 v 19 and 20? JEHOVAH'S witnesses obey do you? Do you know how the disciples first came to be called Christians? 1Corinthians 11 v 26, Jehovah's witnesses conform to what the disciples did, DO YOU? Do you realize that Mary (Jesus own mother) did not recognize him. Have you ever wondered why? The disciples who were with Jesus daily did not recognize him at first on every occasions after his resurrection, do you ever wonder why? Obviously, if maybe the first time they saw him after his resurrection they did not recognize him, that might be ok, butwhat happened all the other times? Do you know that angels could materialise human bodies? + ( Genesis 6 v 2) (Jude 6) Flesh and blood can not enter into Heaven, (1 CORINTHIANS 15 v 50 ) so how are you going to explain Acts1 v 9 to the people you are misleading?
No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.”
Good points, Sam. Sadly, when it comes to JW's they believe the publications OVER the Bible. As for His return, Acts 1:11 "Men of Galilee, why are you gazing up into heaven? The same Jesus who was taken from your sight will return the same way you SAW Him go. SAW...eyesight. Sadly, JW's say this has to do with "eyes of understanding". Understanding what? John 20:25-28 is another good text. "Thomas, handle me and see. A *SPIRIT* does *NOT* have flesh and bone as you see that I have"* And Thomas called Him "My Lord and my GOD". I have had JW's dance around this text with such moves as to make Michael Jackson look like he had two left feet! A couple of them said Thomas was startled. At what? Jesus was talking for a few minutes before Thomas declared Jesus was his Lord and his GOD. If Thomas reacted because he was startled, Jesus would have reprimanded him for blasphemy if all he did was say "Oh my lord, oh my God, because something scared him.
Carl Ranns “Look at my hands. Look at my feet. You can see that it’s really me. Touch me and make sure that I am not a ghost, because ghosts don’t have bodies, as you see that I do.” As he spoke, he showed them his hands and his feet. Still they stood there in disbelief, filled with joy and wonder. Then he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?” They gave him a piece of broiled fish, and he ate it as they watched.” Luke 24:39-43
This is the biggest lie i have ever seen. "JW's believe the publications over the bible" we base all of our publications off of the bible. if you looked at them you'd see for everything it says it has a scripture backing it up.
Emma Buczynski one scripture taken out of context isn’t bible based. For example show us 1914, or Jesus being Michael in the Bible... you can’t. Show us Governing Body. The faithful and discreet slave is a parable
My girlfriend suffered coming up a jw . I’m not religious or anything but what I can say that’s FACTS is this belief hurts ppl and makes them lose faith . I don’t know much but I know my god isn’t that harsh on us . I believe that this religion is a cult . They do make ppl feel scared and confused .
Then follow up w how jesus told thomas to put his hand in his side etc.." A SPIRIT does not have a BODY (flesh and bone) as you see i do....a resurrected spirit body has flesh and bone not flesh and blood
@@gustavmahler1466 typical watchtower deceitfulness quoting a part and not the whole. Why not finish quoting the whole verse? "And when they did not find his body, they came back saying they had even seen a vision OF ANGELS, who said that he was alive." It says they did not find his body. They saw a vision of Angels. The Angel's said he was alive. How do you get that Jesus' appearances were merely visions and not physical? John 20:27ff Jesus told Thomas to put his hand in his side. How does one put ones hand in a vision? This one event brought Thomas to the point of calling Jesus "my God" (theos). Which would be blasphemy if Jesus was not theos. Jesus did not correct him, which he should have if Thomas was wrong. John 2:19-21 Jesus said, " destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up....he was speaking of the temple of his body (soma-physical body)....when therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this, and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had spoken" back to Luke 24: but they were startled and frightened and thought they were seeing a spirit. And he said to them, "why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh (sirx ) and bones as you see I HAVE. And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet (real physical). Then he ate physical food in front of them. Visions dont eat food or have touchable body parts.
“ 'Tear down this temple, and in three days I will raise IT up.' -- he was talking about the temple of his body." -Jn.2:19, 21 New World Translation. (Emphasis added). Jesus raised up the same body he was speaking to the Jews in. Clear as can be.
The Jesus is God people put their emphasis on Jesus saying I WILL RAISE" they use it in that way to prove it. Basically we all do and say that to show whoever we are talking to that they will see us again. " I'm going to Jail, but I'll be back." Upon one hearing that instills assurance. Who tore the Temple down? Whether it was Jehovah that tore the temple down or man did it the point is that Jesus was coming back to life. Life as a human being.
@@j.wat.3437 No sir, that is a false equivalency. That would work if we had the authority to release ourselves from jail but we would go and be released when our time has been served. Using that situation, Jesus would be the one releasing Himself at His will. There were a few instances where a miracle Jesus preformed was resurrection. In Matthew 9:23 Jesus resurrects a girl who had just died and people had began to mourn and grieve for exhibiting His authority to restore life. Something only God can do. Jesus didn't have to pray to God for Him to resurrect someone, He said it and it was done. Jesus is God. Not the form of God that is God The Father, but the one that makes Him Son Of Man. Just as The Holy Spirit is God. Not God The Father, but the very Spirit of God Himself whom is able to be sent out to do His work. John 1:1-4 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God , and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made. In him(The Word aka Christ); and light was the life of men." A distinction was made to acknowledge that the Word is separate from God while still being God. After that, John the baptist was spoken about because he is who was sent to bear witness to the coming of the true Light that was Jesus. You should read John chapter 1. All of the scriptural support for that is the entire 1st chapter.
I like to establish Jesus' truthfulness. "Does Jesus lie or deceive?" Once they say "No..." Besides the scripture you have found, there is also doubting Thomas needing to put. his finger in the wounds. Would Jesus deceive Thomas with imaginary wounds?
@@blueforest4589 Um, nope. I think (along with Bible scholars) that there are too many matching copies of the Bible that there are no problems. There can be missing commas or added periods on one version but doctrine has absolutely NOT been changed. Human thinking would assume that there have been changes but God won't have His word changed. Therefore, actually, I really DO know.
@@blueforest4589 Those are the EXACT same examples I use with my English students, LOL! However, on our topic... We have all the other copies with the commas in the right place, NO doctrine issues and the Gospel stays the same. Have a restful Saturday.
@@blueforest4589 So much for logic on your part. Look at the title of the video. Look at how your line of argument does not apply to that issue or what my point is. My line of thought has to do with discussing theology with JWs. Are you a JW?
As an ex Jehovah's witness and now a Child of God( Christian) I do not know what JW's you have talked to but they are not taught that Jesus Body was not Resuerected so this should not even be a debate. I used to go door to door and even use examples as to how a person can be resurrected in their body. Yes Jehovah's witnesses is a man made religion and unfortunately has many rules and thoughts that are not from my Father but this is a bad example because they are not taught this.
If you read the KJV or NKJV to a Jehovah witness they will dismiss it as a demonic version. We can show Jehovah witnesses that Jesus is Jehovah from their own translation. “I am the *Alʹpha and the O·meʹga,”* says Jehovah God, “the One who is and who was and who is coming, the Almighty.” (Revelation 1:8) NWT Ask them who is the Alpha and the Omega? They’ll say it’s Jehovah God. Then ask them to read Revelation 21:6-7. And he said to me: “They have come to pass! I am the Alʹpha and the O·meʹga, the *beginning and the end.* To anyone thirsting I will give from the spring of the water of life free. 7 Anyone conquering will inherit these things, and I will be his God and he will be my son. (Revelation 21:6-7) NWT Then ask who is the beginning and the end? They’ll say it’s Jehovah God. Then ask them to read Revelation 22:12-13. “‘Look! I am coming quickly, and the reward I give is with me, to repay each one according to his work. 13 I am the Alʹpha and the O·meʹga, *the first and the last,* the beginning and the end. (Revelation 22:12-13) NWT Ask them who is the first and the last? Of course, they’ll say it’s Jehovah God. Now you’ll notice in verse 16 that the verses opens up with “I Jesus.” *“‘I, Jesus,* sent my angel to bear witness to you about these things for the congregations. I am the root and the offspring of David and the bright morning star.’” (Revelation 22:16) NWT But what the Jehovah witness may say, is that the speaker has changed. It obviously hasn’t but that’s fine, just ask them who the first and the last is. Then finally turn the witness back to Revelation 1:17-18 and have them read this: When I saw him, I fell as dead at his feet. And he laid his right hand on me and said: *Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last, 18 and the living one, AND I BECAME DEAD, but look! I am living forever* and ever, and I have the keys of death and of the Grave. (Revelation 1:17-18) NWT Then after the witness reads this verse ask them this question, when did Jehovah God die? The witness has already told you that Jehovah God is the First and the Last. So, the speaker does not change. Their own bible tells them that Jehovah died. According to Jehovah witnesses own theology, Jehovah God has never died. Their own bible proclaims that Jesus is Jehovah! Apologist and evangelist, Ray Comfort, gives a great strategy. In his illustration he says to ask a Jehovah witness this: “Imagine there is a knife in my back and I only have three minutes to live before I bleed out. What must I do to enter Jehovah’s kingdom?” The Jehovah witness wanted to talk about the Watchtower magazine but they’ll probably entertain the question and respond by saying sonething like there are many things. They may even tell you they don’t really know except come to the kingdom hall, read more books and do lot’s of works. Then gently ask them this: “Well, what did the thief on the cross have to do to enter Paradise with Christ?” He had to do nothing! It proves a point to get them to think. You see, Jehovah witnesses don’t have a way to enter Jehovah’s kingdom except lots and lots of works. I use to shrug them off but they are use to a lot of hate. They dedicate their life to evangelising. Of course they are tremendously in error in their theology and sending people to hell but everything is on the line for them if they confess Jesus is God.
@@megan1445 Revelation 1:8, Where does the Revelation come from? Rev1:1 states "God!" "A revelation by Jesus Christ, WHICH GOD GAVE HIM,"...so these are God's words, Jesus is speaking God Jehovahs words not speaking of himself at verse 8. For it says of God at ISAIAH 44:6 'This is what Jehovah says, The King of Isreal and his Repurchaser, Jehovah of armies: 'I am the first and I am the last.' This coincides with Revelation 22: 13 'I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.' as well as 'Almighty' is only ascribed to Jehovah; Revelation 11:17' saying: "We thank you Jehovah God, the Almighty,'... Also Revelation 16:14; 19:15; 15:3; Exodus 6:3; Rev 19:6; 2Cor 6:18; Rev 4:8; Gen 17:1; Psa 91:1

@@ExposingJWTeachings you are hopeless.. you do realize jacob WRESTLED WITH AN ANGEL right? so obviously we can see angels if they want to be seen. the 2 angels ate dinner with jacob then went to sodom and gomorrah seen by everyone then were even attacked.. what are you talking about?? how can you expose anything when you dont even know what you're talking about? the bible is FULL of angels appearing to humans. like...what you said was so insanely stupid im not even sure how to respond to it because it is like saying 10 x 5 = 5,229,299. there are something like 10,000 scriptures talking about angels appearing to humans..

Dan 3:25 - "Then why do I see four men walking around in the fire?" he asked. "They are not tied up, and they show no sign of being hurt--and the fourth one looks like an angel." -- OOPS wrong again. The scripture you are completely inaccurately quoting is luke 24:39 - he didnt say ANGEL, he said SPIRIT. - See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me, and see. For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.” Jesus WAS an angel when he was in heaven, why do you think it says Jesus will ressurect people with an ARCHANGELS CALL? he is much more powerful and has more authority than an archangel now, so why would he be using a power WEAKER than his own? because he was michael the Archangel. what do you mean "how can an angel be a mediator" if god granted an angel the authority he can do whatever he wants. Michael was the only thing in the universe god created by hand, which is why God considers him special, Jesus created everything else. so Jesus / Michael was in a very unique position to fill that role. this isnt rocket science.
@@lovelymya. what about them? the bible does not say they went to heaven. John 3:13 - No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven-the Son of Man.
I like talking to jw's about God's name. They like saying is Jehovah... but I like questioning. What about the name Jahweh? They offen say. You can use either or. Then I'm like.... what about the name yahowah? They stay stun. I'm normally like, yeah, you didn't know they made that name to cover jahweh up? Yes, and when it came to latin *man* did with the name from yahowah into jehovah. I like talking to them about the name in the torch (tetragrammation.) Which is YHWH. And let them know man put in the vowels. Its true. now, if you can get this far.... let them know the meaning of YHWH. When reading the name as (YHWH) *yood hey vav hey.* comes back to saying in the old Hebrew. *Behold the nail, behold the hand.* Now, the word behold can also be known as the word reveal. So it can also be reveal the nail, behold the hand. Anyways, i let them know.... who can Moses be referring to in the old Hebrew with these 4 letters i ask? Because you can still say the name jehovah which *man* inserted the vowels into YHWH to make up that name. So, whats his name? At the end... they leave with a fraud face. But stun. Yup, they do the walk of shame. Its halerious. Sometimes they leave saying well, I know him as jehovah because thats what most bibles say. Then I come at them saying... well, did you know that man is inserting words into scripture? So, you just can't trust any theology now in days. Then I take them there bible (nwt) in which they add the word *other* in colossians 1:14-16. So, whos bible is right; mine or yours? I ask them. Then I like; Your saying you believe jehovah is his name just as you believe your bible is correct which man inserting the word *other* in it? I let them know the word other was inserted by them, in 1951. So at the end i question them. Your telling me your going base on what man does with scripture? As they leave you might here them say "I not here to argue." I quickly yell as their on there way. Neither was I. I actually love sharing with you who is really jehovah.
Another thing that's good to point out in those verses is where Jesus says HE will rebuild the temple in 3 days. He is claiming power and authority in doing something only God can do thus making a statement of his own Divinity.
You make an excellent point. I have memorized scriptures through the years for encounters with Jehovah Witnesses . This is another great one. Thank you. And may God richly bless you.
Religious people hate facts. only10% of the old testament exists and thats not ftom the horses mouth. 30 to 40% of the new testement exist. On top of that the book came into existence 50 to 100 AD. Even in the old testament it speaks of multple gods or supeme beings im just saying that book is fairly new. In fact the monotheistic belief is new. The binle is for one spacific people. Cannanites and isrealites. Before that it was EL or ELshaddai, elohim. Elohia, Yahweh etc etc.same people witch was converted to polythheistic.very new stuff. Sumatians talked about adam and eve and Eden what 3500 yrs before that. Hummm and i was a jw.a bunch of lies and stories. Same reason for the separation of eastern orthodox and romam catholics. The schism of 1054.communication problems between them over words and the meaning in another language, amongst other things. One book, a thousand diffrent ways to interpret one word. Now think about the stories our 5× over greatgrand kids will tell about us. A magic snake charmer, when all you did was kill a garter snake. Or how about you faught off a pack of wolves while stranded on a snow bluff in hollywood with a baby im one hand. When in reallity your old bookie and his henchmen caught up with you in Vegas and took your wiener dog and let you survive?
What is the exelent point about arguing over a book written by romans then translated in many languages throughout history and rewritten during many reform. They lied to you and they made you scared of god. The real teachings were not to scare people away but find Peace and love. If they are teaching you of wars and catastrophy. Blaming god for all misery of mankind. Insulting god. God was never anger and was never jelousy. That is only in man. Because of the mistakes. Life is the gift from god and death is mistake of a man. You don't know nothing.
I'm not a JEHOVAH witness but, Jesus was not resurrected in the flesh or that would make Jesus Christ a liar because he says in the resurrection we come back as the Angels do and the angels are spiritual creatures spiritual creatures are invisible, Matthew 22 Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, snot knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but tare as the angels of God in heaven. 31 But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, 32 I uam the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living. 33 And when the multitude heard this, they vwere astonished at his doctrine Also since Jesus was only dead like 3 days why was it that they could not recognize Jesus he should have the same face right they had a conversation with them and they still didn't recognize him until he broke bread did they recognize him actually and this was the first time they had seen them since he had been put to death, when Lazarus was resurrected they recognized him when he came out of the memorial tombs Luke 24 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, kJesus himself drew near, and went with them. 16 But ltheir eyes were holden that they should not know him. Luke 24 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. 31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight. Now notice how once Jesus broke bread their eyes were open and then right after that day he vanished out of their sight, not run or hide(like he was doing before he was killed or Resurrected) out of their sight he vanished or disappeared out of their sight, freshly humans cannot do this.. John 21 But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples cknew not that it was Jesus. John 21 Jesus saith unto them, iCome and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord. 13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise. 14 This is now jthe third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead. John 21 Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and the same with the fish. 14 This was now the third time that Jesus appeared to the disciples after being raised up from the dead. So at this point they had seen Jesus three times since he had been resurrected and they still did not recognize him our fleshly bodies don't change by the day unless we can materialize new fleshly bodies because he was resurrected in the spiritual form as he said it Matthew 22 because that's the only way you can get everlasting life, because flesh and blood cannot inherit God's Kingdom (1st Corinthians 15:50) but spiritual creatures can materialize fleshly bodies if Jehovah God allows them to and saying to Jesus had the authority well he materialize the fleshly body that's why he was appearing and disappearing and unrecognizable Acts 26 aThat Christ should suffer, and zthat he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and yshould shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles. Jesus Christ was the first to rise from the dead or to a spiritual life because it's Matthew 22 points out we come back as the Angels do so that's why he was the first to rise actually from the dead and to everlasting life, because Lazarus was also brought back from the dead and brought back into the sinful flesh but he still died in sin and many other people were resurrected in the flesh but they again died and sin
Thank you, thank you, thank you, sir!! I needed this so much! My 15yo son, who lives with his Mom and step-dad has been influenced by a "pretty" little JW girl. He's been saying that he wants to convert to JW. I've been using scriptures and prayer to try to convince him that the JW cult is wrong. So, I REALLY needed this wisdom. Thank you so much for posting and sharing this nugget in God's Word. Again, thank you and may God richly bless you and yours... SW
I agree with what this man said. At the same time I pose this question, in the following Bible verses at the Last Supper Jesus says about the bread this IS my Body...How are we to take this as Christian's. There is one correct answer just like he said if we look at it through the eyes of Jesus. It's either really His Body or it's a symbol. If it's a symbol then Jesus is lying. Mark 14:22 While they were eating,f he took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, and said, “Take it; this is my body. Luke 22 Then he took the bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which will be given for you; do this in memory of me.” Matthew 26:26 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, “Take and eat; this is my body.”
I don't care what they think. "Theology is nothing but ropes of sand to the Moon." But what people do is of great importance, and I believe it is noticed by God. The Witnesses were the first religious group in Germany to say "NO" to Hitler. They meant it! The Christian churches did every thing they could to go along and get along.
don reed The JW’s made efforts to appease Hitler before Hitler started killing them. The Watchtower isn’t giving you all of the facts. jwfacts.com/watchtower/hitler-nazi.php
I'm a Jehovah's witness and the bible says Jesus was resurrected in his own body. Luke 24:36-39. Could these verses have caused confusion between you and the witnesses who visited you? John 20:14-15, 21:4-7 says they did not recognize Jesus.
I tell you what is confusing. The Watchtower claims its first president Charles Russell accurately foretold events ahead of 1914, yet he was absolutely wrong about everything he predicted.
No he was not wrong about everything. The main prediction was that the Kingdom would be established in heaven in 1914 fulfilling Daniel 7:13 and the prophesy in Daniel 4. Jesus prophesies in Matt 24 confirms that as did the prophesy in Rev 12:7-12. They did think Armageddon would follow and it seemed to with world war 1 starting in 1914. The end of the world did not come then but the separation work did start then and that is the preaching work JWs are still doing.
If you want to see more errors in prediction read Hal Lindsey's Late, great Planet Earth. Also the Catholic Church thought the end was coming in the year 1000. But even Jesus followers asked if the end was coming in their time. Frank;y I had rather someone told me it was coming soon so I will get ready now rather than later. Jesus said we would not know the day or hour. I am still waiting, how about you?
Hey Barry, what proof do you have that Jesus's kingdom was established in 1914? When you find the gray matter that is usually located between your ears, let me know the answer. Thanks, TTYL.
3/15/2019: Wow, I smiled when you said that “they do NOT know the Bible but Watch Tower theology”; and, you are absolutely RIGHT. I am in my 60’s and I do not ever remember JW’s coming to my door. Well, last Halloween, I had 2 women come to my door and they asked me, Do you know the kingdom of heaven? I say that I did. The KINGDOM IS A PERSON (JESUS CHRIST) and it is a PREPARED PLACE for a PREPARED PEOPLE. I started talking with them concerning GOD’s kingdom and JESUS CHRIST. They never asked me anything else. They just said, I see that you are comfortable in “your religion”. I told them that I do not have a religion but was a sinner saved by GOD’s mercy & grace. They walked away but my prayers have been for them since our brief encounter. It just grieves my heart with ppl who are so deceived in false religious systems. Take care, my brother in CHRIST. JESUS is coming soon enough and will silence all false, lying religious teachers, preachers and systems ( ALL LIARS will have their part in the lake that burns w/fire & brimstone).
Excellent video, Sam Tolley, this scripture is must effective with those new Witnesses.I remember when I was a JW, I was downtown Minneapolis talking to a Christian. He stated a cow begats a cow, a horse begats a horse. The Bible states that Jesus is the only begotten God! I had no rebuttal for that scripture. The Christian just asked me to think about it. Smart Christian, that encounter was the start of me leaving the Witnesses.
Thank you for this. Very helpful. Appreciate very much the fact that you don't want to embarrass them, but to win them into God's kingdom - in and thru Jesus Christ.

I’m not perfect I mess up but Jesus is Perfect He never ever mess up .. I misspelled.. you got my point ... Isaiah 7:14 ..... my question to you again in Colossians 1:3 Which states all things were created by Jesus and for Jesus.... your book says all other things.. again my friend it doesn’t make sense He created all things then there is nothing left to create nothing! I say this again my friend.... if you have a store and I say to you I want to buy everything in your store and what is left over? My friend does that make sense? It’s nothing left over how am I gonna buy something that is not there? That is why I don’t trust your book my friend no offense to you.. also in Hebrews 1:8 your book says God is your throne does that make sense? God is not a Thorne He sits on a Thorne... this is what the Bible says in Hebrews 1:8 The Father is talking to His Son ... Thy Thorne OH God ... that makes sense
Again check out John 8 in your book and John 8 in the king James... yours don’t make sense my friend I say that in a caring way... give verses is gone maybe from your book..... God said don’t add or take away my friend Revelation 22:18
Brother, praise the Lord. Like yourself the Lord through his Holy Spirit has revealed all truth, please continue to be a good and faithful servant no matter what the cost . I'll see you at the catching up of the body of Christ.
@@samueltolley brother Samuel I know you're a saved man and a brother in Christ Jesus so I present a challenge. We both know that Roman Catholicism is mystery Babylon and all doctrines that come out of this wicked system are false . Now after studying into the trinitarian doctrine that came out of philosophy one must add and subtract from the written word of God and we both know that's a very sirius sin, my point is this , after studying the Hebrew Godhead doctrine I found in no way does trinitarian doctrine line up with the Hebrew Godhead doctrine " at all " like the jws bible the false trinitarian doctrine promotes a polytheism doctrine so if you're interested in the scriptures that prove Jesus Christ and the Father and Holy Spirit are 1 get back to me asap I will faithfully provide all scripture and I'm convinced through the Holy Spirit you will understand the true Hebrew Godhead doctrine of the bible.
Asmr.. you was just one of the church goer and when you heard a noise you left because there no truth, no faith spiritually death. TH-cam noise maker against jw. You should be a Muslim.
Reg Ham Have you noticed that jw mention their organization (a word not even in the bible) almost as much as the mention Jesus. Or the kingdom. You need to try out a real church that actually talks about Jesus as much as the gospels do. Be like the earliest Christians.
Truth we talk about Jesus more than you do! And we do the work worldwide that Jesus said his followers would do. Wee love our world organization of brothers and sisters more than you? We are no part of the political party world, Just as Jesus and he said that they are no part of the world.
@@marielcadiz4850 perhaps, like myself, many out there have family still in the JWs. Videos like this help us organize our thoughts when we talk to them. Perhaps you should not worry what other people do so much. It is okay if folks try to help out. BTW, God commanded us to teach and preach in his name.

@@blueforest4589 Colossians 2 Furthermore, though you were dead in your trespasses and in the uncircumcised state of your flesh, God made you alive together with him. He kindly forgave us all our trespasses 14 and erased the handwritten document that consisted of decrees and was in opposition to us. He has taken it qout of the way by nailing it to the torture stake Speaking of someone who does not know how to help their brother get a piece of straw out of their eye obviously 🙄..Did you know true Christians are no longer under the Mosaic law anymore? So since we are no longer under the Mosaic law, I can eat pork or anything I like, with faith( except blood).. that's why it helps to know the Bible and what you're talking about sometimes before you open your mouth and look foolish and show your full ignorance of the Bible before the masses🤦 Mark 7 17 After he had left the crowd and entered the house, his disciples asked him about this parable. 18 “Are you so dull?” he asked. “Don’t you see that nothing that enters a person from the outside can defile them? 19 For it doesn’t go into their heart but into their stomach, and then out of the body.” (In saying this, Jesus declared all foods clean.)

Or are you under another different arrangement than the Israelites were for forgiveness of sin through faith in Jesus Christ(or did God make a mistake the first time around when he instituted sins law?)... Well that's obviously has changed in the scriptures 🤦.. some fools just should not speak on things they do not understand 🤷
The core of our belief is a crucified Christ, that died, was buried and rose again in a glorified (flesh and bone animated by the Holy Spirit) body that we too will one day possess. Religions across the world must try and refute this because if Christ did this then He is who He said He is and our faith in Him is justified.
Caroline Graham There are so many easier things to ask jw. Ask them to explain where THE BIBLE teaches an overlapping generation and watch them change the subject. (Point to matthew 1 as where matthew virtually defines what he understands a generation to be)

Wow thank God for giving His holy spirit to revealed it to you the truth, now i am Going to use this verse to crushed their lies... Thanks my brother in Christ

Wow! Thank you sir! I recently left the Jehovah's witnesses because of their false doctrines. We were taught that Jesus was resurrected in a spiritual body, which is another thing wrong with their doctrine. I will share this scripture with other JWs. Thanks again!
Christ vanishes in front of everyone, then immediately returns with a new physical body with scars - Luk 24:31-45 Christ, immediately after resurrection (in his new and glorified body), asks for and eats meat - Luke 24:41-43 New resurrected bodies are physical, not just spiritual, including ability to eat food - Luke 24:41-43 We are eventually given whole new physical bodies that replace our current bodies - Phil. 3:21, 1 Cor. 15:35-43 All are physically resurrected from graves, but the good and bad have different destinations - John 5:28-29 We all get physically resurrected prior to judgment - Revelation 20:11-14 People do not believe in resurrection and mock it, but it is real and some believed it before it happened - Acts 17:32
JW's do not believe as Jesus in not killing those of other nations in war, or believe in Santa's Christmas as the day of his birthday, or other pagan proved holidays, but is it safe to say you do believe in murder, war, and paganism? Do you pray in Jesus name as they do.? Also, since you are detailed on 1 piece of uninformed info you "chose" to research, can you do more research on a "Cult", before you identify a Christian based religion as such. When you know the definition behind words you use, it shows you have a bit of intelligence behind what you say. Otherwise, you have no substance in what you say. Here is an idea: try to see good in all as Jesus did, and don't tear down others, even if you were proven wrong before by the witnesses, which is why you went as far as putting videos out.
thank you for your answers, they are very good. People nowadays like to take apart just about everything & criticise peoples religious beliefs. in my opinion a true christian will not judge or criticise others using social media, this is very abusive behaviour & revolting. We're all humans here & not perfect, one person in the same faith may have more experience/knowledge than another-that's the same with anything.. With years of dedication & prayer comes wisdom. If someone came to me & preached I would listen & acknowledge them, Not Argue, walk away & do research on that subject. If the preacher was not able to answer my question I would wait until they returned at a later time to provide answers. All scriptures are inspired & beneficial for teaching. Part of having faith is doing research yourself (meaning all of us). I really appreciate your scriptures provided. I like to hear different peoples opinions because it is very encouraging to dig deeper & find the right answer. You can read a scripture & so easily misinterpret it if you just take it for granted. :) what
@@SuperKimmy71 Do you recall Jesus calling the Pharisees and Saddeuces Vipers (snakes)? Is that seeing the good in all? Jesus died for our sins, so he well knew how much 'good' was in all of us. Our righteousness is as filthy rags. Have you forgotten these scriptures, or do you practice selective reasoning?
Thank you very much! This will certainly help with witnessing with JW’s! May the Lord guide all of us to be a light and a helping hand for those poor, lost and trapped people✝️🙏
Acts 5:38,39 So under the present circumtances,I say to you,do not meddle with these men,but let them alone...For if this scheme or this work is from men,it will be overthrown;But if it is from God,YOU WIl NOT BE ABLE TO OVERTHROW THEM.OTHERWISE ,YOU MY BE FOUND FIGHTERS AGAINST GOD HIMSELF.....
The Watchtower Org has only been in existence for a little over 100 years and its already crumbling so Yes Jesus was right again. Kingdom halls being sold off and congregations being consolidated for lack of members. Real Estate being sold all over the world to pay for the hundreds of millions JWs are losing in court cases for child sexual abuse mishandling. Stephen Lett going on the Broadcasting saying they have more money going out than coming in and petitioning for donations. Construction projects cancelled. over 30% of Bethelites cancelled after Warwick build. Doctrine after doctrine being proven lies of men. Yes, the Watchtower is being overthrown as we speak. Witnesses are in for a HUGE shock when their prophecy of Babylon the Great turns on their own heads which it has already begun...her waters are drying up
@@TimKollat it is the last days... the harvest is coming to an end. of course there are fewer people interested in the truth in the last days. But 20 million people came to Memorial so explain that.
@@lindastrang8703 of those 20 million that showed for memorial only 8 of them are members, and that number is falling. the other 12 million the org says are dead anyways unless they fully commit to the Watchtower. I've heard this several times by elders and C.O's. I used to go on the memorial invite campaigns and then wonder why all the trash talk afterward of how none of the people that show up are going to survive Armageddon just for showing at memorial. Why invite people just to gossip about them later? Anyhow, the whole memorial celebration is completely against Jesus's words. Next time your at one ask yourself if you feel right that you are made to physically reject the sacrifice of Jesus in front of all to see, all because you are told that this is what you are to do all from a totally false watchtower doctrine of the 2 classes of christian
Joel Teague Jehovah’s witness are citizen of the Gods Kingdom and worship The true and Almighty God Jehovah’ . They follow the Lamp of God Christ Jesus takes Sin away from the world .

@Mark R That is not what the Trinity Doctrine teaches. There are no "3 god's". And if you're going to bring up that you think the trinity is pagan because other cultures have three gods, that is false because the "3 pagan gods" you are taking about are not in any sense related or connected. They are just three random gods that you pick. Every single time a JW starts talking about the Trinity, I discover that they have no idea what they're talking about because they don't even know what the doctrine teaches. Do some research for once. There is biblical proof that God has composite unity. There is only one God (Deut 6:4, Isa 44:8). the Hebrew word for ‘one’ is echad which almost all of the time means composite unity. It is used in Gen 2:24 where the husband and wife become ‘one flesh’. Absolute numerical unity is the Hebrew word 'yachid', but it is never used of God in the Scripture.
Christians are well aware that JW's changed their Bible to fit their theology. They translate John 1:1 as "a god", however, they fail to translate "theos" without the definite article as the same in other places. Even in John 1 there are other instances where "theos" doesn't have the article, yet they translate it as "God". They translate "created all things" in reference to Jesus to "created all other things", when the word 'other' is not present in the Greek. They translate "worship" in reference to Jesus as "doing obeisance to", yet they translate the same Greek word as "worship" in reference to Peter, the angels, and God.
Thanks for your testimony. I recently started having an encounter with JW's, I started meeting up with them on Zoom meetings during the Covid lockdown and I couldn't find anything wrong from what they said and how they worshipped and conveyed the message. Then some time later they handed me a booklet from which we started doing studies from it, some things triggered me in the back of my mind when I talked about the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, the God trinity and that they are three persons in one which they seemed to shy away from and said that we will eventually get to that later in the booklet. Also the fact that they insist on calling God, Jehova bothered me, for no where in the Bible is the name Jehova even mentioned, so I did a bit of research as to where they get the name Jehova from until I realized it's from the four letter word or acronym JHWH, but since I've already began my own Bible studies and followed a few online Pastors for nearly two years before the time already, I knew that the letter "J" didn't exist in ancient Hebrew, the closest to that would be the letter "Y" which existed in ancient Hebrew, so this already questioned the name Jehova, besides this and also because they shy'd away from the God trinity was enough for me to begin researching the history and authenticity of the JW's where I then found out the truth about them and was shocked and disappointed, even disgusted in them whence I heard what they think about Jesus Christ (Yeshua in Hebrew), that they make Him out to be Michael the archangel, that they don't believe in a cross, but in a stake, just a wooden stake on which He was crucified and so many more things which I rebuked. My heart sunk thinking why would God allow me to be involved with this false belief when He knew I was searching Him already for some time through other means just to fall into this trap, called JW's... Then I realized, maybe God put me through this so that I can try to save a few from JW's, but how can I when I'm still not saved myself, I haven't been baptised yet, I've repented yes, but still not saved and there's nothing I can do to be saved unless by the Grace of God. I'm still in contact with these JW's, they don't know what I now know about them and although I don't want to participate in any further studies with them, I'm not sure if I should try and stay as a hidden agent for God and continue the journey with them and try to convert some of them over time back to the real truth in who and what Jesus really is, but how can I do this, is this even possible. I need help and advise!
Cryptix AI First off, you do not need to be baptized to be saved. Baptism is a outward public identification with Christ. All you have to do is to repent of your sins, acknowledge that Jesus or if you like, Yeshua is the Christ, God the Son, and Lord of your life as stated not Romans 9:9-10. That’s it. You should quit studying with JW’s and find a Bible believing and teaching church. After you have grown biblically, witnessing to JW’s is your calling, God will reveal it to you. May the Lord Jesus bless you and keep you as you grow closer to him. Do get baptized when possible 😀
If the letter y doesn't translate to the letter j then every word in the Old testament that begins with j as you're saying should be removed don't believe this stuff that you're told especially from this Samuel person he has no idea what the scripture say again steady for yourself do research for yourself test all things to see if they're from God that's what the scripture say so do your own research don't listen to me or anyone else find it out for yourself and you will see the witness are speaking the truth
1 Peter 3:18-22 18~For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit. Thank You JESUS... For I am a JW! LIFE
I was pionering for many years. I was arguing both side of the argument in order to be better prapared. Eventually i understood that i was wrong. Now I am a goatfarmer with my own channel. Much better.🐐🐐🐐😊
Janine Estrada...Please allow me to tell you why I "turned away from" the JW's. I actually and finally did my own research when the internet first came out. What I found out, about the founder CT Russell and his successor "Judge" Rutherford shocked me. If the foundation is not good, then what is built upon it will also be not good. I was baptised "in the name of the Father, Son and God's holy spirit directed Organisation". Not biblical. You yourself know that you are not allowed to ask questions of any JW theology. (Which btw changes "tack" often). Truth does not get brighter. Truth is truth, It does not flip-flop like many of the JW doctrines. You know I am telling you straight. Leave that cult (yes it's a cult) and pray to God to show you the correct path. May He bless you and help you on your way. Jesus IS the way, the truth and the life, and He has all authority given Him by the Father. Jesus is the only name under heaven by which we can be saved. Get a King James bible and start reading. Dump that corrupt NWT.
Hahahahhahahahahah all the best when Jehovah’s day comes. Whose gonna have your back then? Not with ajehovah, then your against and I would hate to be on that side
*HERE'S A PROBLEM THEY CAN'T ANSWER AND IT'S A BIG PROBLEM* - To believe that the church became corrupted after the death of the last apostle ( and believe a man 1850 years later) - But trust late 4th century Catholic bishops 300 years later to even know what books belong in the New World Translation bible. The Watchtower uses the very same 27 books, no more, no less, out of some 300+ early Christian writings as first decided as scripture by these late 4th c Bishops. *They were all Trinitarians* and brought the book into Church where it was read at Mass which they presided over. The Watchtower - led by 8 fallible men who are not inspired - reject the Church on the latter but trust it on the former. This makes the promise of Jesus Christ one he couldn't keep. He was undependable and a liar. _When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into ALL the truth;_ Jn 16
John 2.18-22 - To answer your question as a Yahwehist - it is clear from scripture that Jesus was resurrected in the same body in which he died. He rose from the dead and then preached and encouraged his disciples for 40 days before his ascension back to heaven, from where he originated - John chapter 6. Jesus then took up his position beside Yahweh, not to usurp Yahweh, but to remain in subordination to Yahweh.
I went to the bank and paid off the loan. Then turn around and say: "I paid it off haven't I. Now can I have it back." Jesus couldn't take back what he had sacrificed to God. Peter contrasts Jesus' death as a human with his resurrection back as an angel (1 Peter 3:18).
Top Ten Things Wrong with Jehovah’s Witnesses 1. Christ Jesus is not their mediator but the governing body/organization is. (Compare 1 Timothy 2:5Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)) 2. They accept the organization as Gods sole “channel” of truth not relying on Holy Spirit themselves. (Compare John 14:16Open in Logos Bible Software (if available),17Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)) 3. They believe the Watchtower contains Gods truth, directed by Holy Spirit. Without it, one cannot understand the Bible. (Compare John 14:6Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) and 1 John 2:27Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)) 4. They claim to be Christian but the vast majority reject Christ Blood and flesh and they do this in a ritualistic fashion every memorial of Christ death by passing the bread and wine among themselves and not eating it. Even the speaker must touch the plate or the cup and reject it for all to see. (Compare John 6:53Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)) 5. They use the name Jehovah over Yahweh but will agree Yahweh is more accurate. (Compare Romans 10:2Open in Logos Bible Software (if available),3Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)) 6. They demand 100% unity at all cost and will disfellowship members if they disagree with any doctrine. (Compare Jude 22Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)) 7. They claim they were approved and chosen by Christ Jesus in 1918 to do Gods will. However, their teachings at the time and mistakes since then prove this could not be true. (Compare Matthew 24:4Open in Logos Bible Software (if available),11Open in Logos Bible Software (if available),23-27Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)) 8. They let their loved ones die imposing their doctrinal ban on blood transfusions based on the law covenant. However, people broke the law covenant when lives were at stake. Such as saving a life of a sheep or human on the Sabbath. King David broke the law to save his men. (Compare John 5:17-18Open in Logos Bible Software (if available), Mark 2:25-28Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) and Mark 7:15Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)) 9. They have ruined thousands of peoples lives by disfellowshipping members without “saying a greeting” to them. Misapplying 2 John 10Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) that says not to greet the Antichrist. This they started in 1952 in order to control their members. (Compare 2 Thess. 3:14Open in Logos Bible Software (if available), 15Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) and 1 Thess. 5:14Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)) 10. They are known for being false prophets for their many false predictions going back over 150 years. They predicted the end would come in 1914, 1975 and the generation alive in 1914 would not die off before the end. Of course, time has ran out on their “generation” understanding so this they have changed. ( Compare Matthew 24:11Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) and Matthew 23:15Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)) If you are a Jehovah’s Witness we would like to recommend that you ask God for his Holy Spirit to guide you. Please do not close your eyes to important facts you can find freely on the internet today about Jehovah’s Witnesses. The truth has nothing to fear. Maybe you became a JW years before these facts were accessible like they are today online. The prophet Daniel was told that many would “rove about” (Daniel 12:4Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)) looking for knowledge at the time of the end. Do you “rove ” or do you put your head in the sand when it comes to examining your own religion? We encourage you to look online and ask questions. This was written by a former Jehovah Witness.

I miss my brothers and sister;s of GOD people --- May the GOD Almighty KEEPS you all in his perfect will!! I am working out of the ministry GETTING the final touches of GOD mighty HAND! There is no one LIKE JEHOVAH and JESUS will agree.... John 12:28-30 Father, glorify your name!" Then a voice came from heaven, "I have glorified it, and will glorify it again." 29The crowd that was there and heard it said it had thundered; others said an angel had spoken to him. 30Jesus said, "This voice was for your benefit, not mine...……..LIFE
Yes. Who will raise this body? He will raise the Temple. Christ Himself raised the temple of His body. Something a Jehovah's Witness refuses to see. Thankyou for your ministry Sam Tolley.
The immortal words in response to the Jehovah's Witness like Pharisees. " I was blind yet now I see" I do hope that most Jehovah's Witnesses are in fact blind because if not?
Most religions say they believe in Jesus and to follow him, but when you look closer there are a lot of other additions that are not of God nor in the bible. Thank you for speaking the truth. If you believe the bible to be true and Gods word and you read it. You will see that the bible does tell us Jesus was resurrected bodily with many witnesses. It is stated In all four gospels as well as other paces in the bible, Math 28, Mark16, Luke 24, John 20, 1Cor 15. There were many witnesses who saw him alive in the flesh, he even ate with them after his resurrection. If you are truly following the bible then how can you deny it. Keep speaking the truth brother and I encourage everyone out there to keep seeking the truth you will find it.
Debra. Well spoken. The resurrection truly matters. Scripture teaches: "If Christ did NOT rise, your faith if futile, you are yet in your sins". JW's do not believe He rose, they follow the WT Corp. teaching that he was recreated from Jehovah's memory. This is not resurrection however, it is the creation of a clone of the original.
Jehovah's witnesses answered your question correctly. Jesus was not resurrected in his physical body. He was resurrected in his spiritual body. Jesus did not lie its you who are lying. The temple is the place where the holy spirit is present. Where the Holy spirit can be present? Everywhere. It's not necessarily a physical body. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 "Do you not know that your body is the temple of the holy spirit within you, which you have from God? Also, you do not belong to yourselves, for you were bought with a price.By all means, glorify God in your body." The temple can also be a building not to mention about the heavenly temple. --- You stumbled over little things while good news is so big and beautiful. Ask for holy spirit with humbleness and the truth will be opened to you. The Good news is very beautiful and Jehovah God and his son are very loving and merciful
Good Sense, Referring to the passage in Luke 24:36-43. Jesus challenges the apostles about whether a spirit has flesh and bones as our resurrected Jesus had flesh and bones standing before them. That statement alone, both reasonably and logically, states that Jesus was not a spirit being, but a man in flesh and bones. Shalom!
Good Sense " Jehovah's witnesses answered your question correctly. Jesus was not resurrected in his physical body. " What you have said is nonsense! Jesus rose from the dead in the very same physical body in which He died. This resurrected, physical body was a glorified, spiritual body. The spiritual body is not merely "spirit." The spiritual body is the resurrected, glorified, physical body. After the resurrection, Jesus was able to eat (Luke 24:42-43). He showed people His hands and feet with the nail prints in them (Luke 24:39; John 20:27), and people even grabbed His feet and worshipped Him (Matt. 28:9). As the reports of Jesus' resurrection were spreading, Thomas, who was doubting the resurrection of Christ, said, "Unless I shall see in His hands the imprint of the nails, and put my finger into the place of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe." (John 20:25). Later, Jesus appeared to Thomas and said to him, "Reach here your finger, and see My hands; and reach here your hand, and put it into My side; and be not unbelieving, but believing." (John 20:27). If Jesus' body had not risen, then He would not have feet and hands with the same holes of the nails of the crucifixion. Consider the following verses as further proof that His very body was raised: "When therefore it was evening, on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst, and said to them, "Peace be with you." 20 And when He had said this, He showed them both His hands and His side. The disciples therefore rejoiced when they saw the Lord." (John 20:19-20). "And He said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39 "See My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself; touch Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.
I'm not a JEHOVAH witness but, Jesus was not resurrected in the flesh or that would make Jesus Christ a liar because he says in the resurrection we come back as the Angels do and the angels are spiritual creatures spiritual creatures are invisible, Matthew 22 Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, snot knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but tare as the angels of God in heaven. 31 But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, 32 I uam the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living. 33 And when the multitude heard this, they vwere astonished at his doctrine Also since Jesus was only dead like 3 days why was it that they could not recognize Jesus he should have the same face right they had a conversation with them and they still didn't recognize him until he broke bread did they recognize him actually and this was the first time they had seen them since he had been put to death, when Lazarus was resurrected they recognized him when he came out of the memorial tombs Luke 24 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, kJesus himself drew near, and went with them. 16 But ltheir eyes were holden that they should not know him. Luke 24 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. 31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight. Now notice how once Jesus broke bread their eyes were open and then right after that day he vanished out of their sight, not run or hide(like he was doing before he was killed or Resurrected) out of their sight he vanished or disappeared out of their sight, freshly humans cannot do this.. John 21 But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples cknew not that it was Jesus. John 21 Jesus saith unto them, iCome and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord. 13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise. 14 This is now jthe third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead. John 21 Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and the same with the fish. 14 This was now the third time that Jesus appeared to the disciples after being raised up from the dead. So at this point they had seen Jesus three times since he had been resurrected and they still did not recognize him our fleshly bodies don't change by the day unless we can materialize new fleshly bodies because he was resurrected in the spiritual form as he said it Matthew 22 because that's the only way you can get everlasting life, because flesh and blood cannot inherit God's Kingdom (1st Corinthians 15:50) but spiritual creatures can materialize fleshly bodies if Jehovah God allows them to and saying to Jesus had the authority well he materialize the fleshly body that's why he was appearing and disappearing and unrecognizable Acts 26 aThat Christ should suffer, and zthat he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and yshould shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles. Jesus Christ was the first to rise from the dead or to a spiritual life because it's Matthew 22 points out we come back as the Angels do so that's why he was the first to rise actually from the dead and to everlasting life, because Lazarus was also brought back from the dead and brought back into the sinful flesh but he still died in sin and many other people were resurrected in the flesh but they again died and sin
I had the JW's come knocking on my door, as usual there were two of them, I told them I believed in the God, Jesus, Holy Spirit. and the Bible. I told them I believed in the Trinity, which they deny , How can three persons be the same, well take a block of ICE place it in a red hot frying pan, then ask them ,--Is it ICE, WATER, STEAM, or is it all three. I then quoted Matthew 18:20 King James Version (KJV) 20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. I then told them that Jesus was here with us and also God, after all God is Omnipotent, Omnipresent, they left in a hurry before I could tell them that ' On the 23rd of November 1988 at 11.45pm I knelt at the side of my bed and asked for God's forgiveness,,, and that was when I WAS BORN AGAIN. Psalm 116..
Rodger Smith I thought I was the only one that instantly understood the Trinity by the water composition: liquid (God The Father), ice (Jesus), gas (Holy Spirit) all molecularly water (the same essence/element) but in different forms with different functions.
Also..the scipture where : 1-John 20:27-Jesus showed Thomas who said 'unless I see the nail marks ..' so Jesus showed His nail marked hands & said 'O ye of little faith..how much better for those who believe without seeing'. & 2-Romans 8:11-speaks of the same Spirit that was in Christ that raised Him from the dead is in us. who have been born again. I know there are many more as well.
I've never heard this story of manufacturing bodies by Jesus. I've had many discussions with witnesses. All the witnesses I have ever talked to believe that he was resurrected. The only thing they don't believe is that Jesus is god. Because he isn't God, he is the son of God. Witnesses are Unitarian. They don't believe in the man made up trinity.
Tim Smith - The Scriptures say Jestis God and Jesus Himself said He is God, and I know you area not smarter than Jesus, and that you a lying sinner. So, who should we believe you or Jesus.
Tim Smith, Are you sure the trinity is "man made..."? You are commanded by Jesus Christ to baptize in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Without any predisposition doesn't the question come to mind, 'why did Jesus command us to do that?' I would suggest to you that both the unity and diversity of God is communicated to all of us in God's word from cover to cover, and very clearly at creation: Gen 1:26 Then God said, "Let US make man in OUR image, in OUR likeness..." I submit for your consideration: If God had intended mankind to worship a Unitarian God, God would have spoken the words in Gen 1:26 as 'Let ME make man in MY image, in MY likeness...' The trinity is tri-unity, just like water has three forms but is still water: liquid - water in liquid form ice - water in a solid form steam - water in a gaseous form I suspect you accept this fact about water in our reality. Shalom!
I am a Jehovah's witnesses we a not programmed to answer questions. If you don't like us we will not put that to heart we will simply move on and what he is saying is not true.we don't have theology we are Christian's we are not false. And this is coming from a 12yr old see how we help people not just adults but young ones too. I hope I cleared up everything
Awsome video thanks for sharing this information they are nice people but HARD to share the word of God with. it's almost like they have blinders on Ephesians 1:18 says The eyes of your understanding being enlightened. Praying🙏 they open there understanding before it's to late.
Unbelievable! You gave Scripture and some still don’t believe...... the Bible says the truth will set you free... you keep putting it out there Brother no one is made but the enemy who cares is if he is made? I don’t for all u haters , if God is for us and He will is who can be against I’m not gonna put a question mark , no one can be against us .... God Bless you my friend! Keep going
Derek Burris don’t sound so surprised...every so called Christian church believes something different...Baptist don’t believe what Methodists believe don’t believe what Catholic’s believe don’t believe what Pentecostals believe.......you get the point!!!
Hello John Smelt. All the denominations of "Christendom" believe the same fundamental doctrines. Where they differ are the ancillary practises each prefers and their hierarchical structure, etc. Some are liturgical, others not at all. Some have communion weekly, others monthly, while others are four times a year. Some sing traditional hymns and others sing modern praise songs with amplified musical instruments, etc. The fundamental beliefs as contained in the "Apostles Creed" for example are common among all. JW's, Scientology, Mormons, Universalism, Christadelphians, etc. are not a part of "Christendom". They are their own particular sects/cults with their own peculiar beliefs each based on twisting the scriptures to fit their particular preconceived beliefs. The WT Corp. for example has even gone so far to rewrite and publish their own "bible" to change as well as insert words to support their preconceived doctrines. Thx. for sharing. J.
John C. Is that why a Catholic cannot marry a non Catholic? Because they see other Christians as similar to themselves? Read the Young’s Literal Translation Bible, American Standard Bible, World English Bible, Divine Name King James Bible...they are all exactly the same as the New World Translation. I use them all interchangeably. Mainstream Christendom has taken Gods unique name out of their Bible. THATS a serious serious serious problem.
Hello again John Smelt. I just noticed another change from Greek to the NWT rendering in 1Cor.6:19 when answering edM3E in his thread above. The NWT has spuriously added the word "people' into this verse. It is NOT in the original Greek as observed in the WT Corp. "K.I.T. Greek Interlinear". You may say "so what?" But the addition of this one word has changed the meaning of the passage.
John C. I think you have the wrong Bible. This is what the NWT says 1 Corinthians 6:19 (nwt-E) - Do you not know that your body is the temple of the holy spirit within you, which you have from God? Also, you do not belong to yourselves,’. There is no ‘people’....
I don't subscribe to any denomination so I don't have a dog in this fight but what he is saying about jehova witness isn't altogether true. I just spoke to one yesterday in fact and she wholly believe in the resurrection and all that. None of what you say they believe is what we talked about. So who is making up stuff?
Another question they CANNOT answer, is WHERE in the Bible does GOD say, MY NAME is Jehovah? They cant answer, they say, but his name is Jehovah.I tell them, WHERE does it say that? YHWY comes from the Unpronouncable name of God, but in the BIBLE ..WHERE does God say, "MY NAME IS JEHOVAH?? They never answer the question..they dance around it...so I say, "When MOSES went up to Mt.Sinai..and saw the burning bush...and Moses said, "Lord, who shall I say SENT ME?" What did the Lord say?...not, " Hey dude my name is Jehovah"...NO! The Lord said, "I AM, Tell them I AM sent you!"..The Jehovahs witnesses always look at me when I quote this scripture and panic and say, "BUT HIS NAME is JEHOVAH!"...I always say, SHOW ME WHERE in the BIBLE where GOD comes straight out and tells us HIS name? They cant...I had a Jehovah Witness create a whole speech on WHY Gods name is SO important, and his name is Jehovah. I told her, You are so focused on his name and you are missing out on WHO HE truly is...
Pablo..are you a Christian?Why are you being rude? In my Bible ,it says, "The Lord", not Jehovah, and you misunderstood me. I said, Where in the Bible does GOD come flat out and tell us HIS name? ONLY to Moses, at the burning bush, when Moses asked, WHO shall I say sent me?, And the Lord replied, "I AM, TELL THEM THE GREAT I AM sent you".I know Jehovah is a derivative of Yahweh, which came from YHWH. In Hebrew it is the UNPROUNCABLE name of GOD, Its not Jehovah. Thats a derivative. Here..read this...... The term “Jehovah,” appearing in the American Standard Version (1901), takes the place of “LORD” (all caps) in the King James Translation, as well as in most modern versions. It derives from four Hebrew consonants, called the Tetragrammaton, a term that signifies a four-letter word. This expression is used by scholars for the four Hebrew letters, YHWH, that constitute a name for God employed some 6,800 times in the Old Testament. (Note: “Jehovah” is found in the King James Version in Exodus 6:3, Psalm 83:18, and Isaiah 12:2 and 26:4.) I am not sure of the motive of the KJV translators four hundred years ago (or of later versions, e.g., RSV, NIV, ESV) in rendering YHWH by “LORD,” in contrast to “Lord.” “Lord,” a rendition of the Hebrew term adonai was used as a title for deity (some 442 times). Perhaps the all-caps format was to accommodate the late-first-century Jewish superstition against pronouncing the sacred covenant name of God (Ex. 6:3; cf. 3:14). Admittedly, the name Jehovah is a hybrid term (i.e., vowels from adonai were imported into the four Hebrew consonants). The same procedure is employed in the construction of Yahweh, a term commonly used today in scholarly literature as a substitute for “Jehovah.” Though “Jehovah” may not approximate the original term quite as closely as Yahweh, the expression “Jehovah” has “now acquired by usage independent standing in English” (Ferm 1945, 389) and certainly is more familiar to the common reader than is Yahweh. Criticism of the use of the name Jehovah is unwarranted. Numerous scholars have noted that the original word’s exact pronunciation has been lost and the various spelling forms are speculations, e.g., “Jehovah, Yehovah, Jahweh, Yahweh” (Unger and White 1980, 229). All of these forms are conjectural transliterations. There is no solid documentation to confirm the original vocalization of YHWH (Horn 1960, 1161). Dogmatism, therefore, is without justification. It is difficult to appreciate the rationale of the somewhat caustic critics who virtually rail against the name Jehovah, when no one knows precisely how the original term was pronounced. Moreover, why has there been no swelling enthusiasm by translators for incorporating Yahweh, as an anglicized term, into the texts of our modern Old Testament versions? Finally, why camouflage the difference between Yahweh and adonai by a subtle change in the English capitalization, when the average Bible student has no clue under the sun as to what lies behind the type style alteration from “Lord” to “LORD” (KJV, RSV, NIV, etc.)?
You still dont understand what I wrote.......and yes, in the KJV in Isaiah, it does say that, I'm aware of that. You're not understanding me...I'm speaking of the name, JEHOVAH directly, read your history of Biblical translations.It will help you.
I understand what your saying, I'm not superstitious, again I was just referencing the basis for the name Jehovah. God is Holy, and I dont know his name,but thats ok.ALL I'm saying is that I'm not going to say...HIS NAME is...this or that.....because thats not for me to do.
Acts 2:23 "Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was not abandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see decay." Watchtower (I believe in the reasoning book) says Jesus' body desolved or decomposed of natural gases. This prophecy shows that teaching is a lie.
🎺🎺MY KINGDOM MINISTRY FOR MY GOD JEHOVAH AND JESUS CHRIST🎺🎺 I know Jehovah witnesses have been taught a lie that heaven is meant for a 144,000 people... but the only place that there's a specific number mentioned of those who go to heaven is in Revelation and it gives a number of 144000 to go to heaven for specific purpose to be Kings and priests for a 1000 years(but notice 1st Corinthians comes before revelation we read the Bible from front to back not Back to front)... JW's have been taught 1st Corinthians is only addressed to the 144,000(or the annointed) but notice in 1st Corinthians 1 who Paul is directing this letter to 1st Corinthians 1:2 to the congregation of God that is in Corinth, to you who have been sanctified in union with Christ Jesus, called to be holy ones, together with all those everywhere who are calling on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ..(we know the holy ones are the annoited but he also added in, "together with all those everywhere who are calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ" so this is for everybody who calls on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, this is who this letter is addressed to skip to 1st Corinthians 6:10 thieves, greedy people, drunkards, revilers, and extortioners WILL NOT INHERIT GOD’S KINGDOM(all servants of Jehovah will inherit God's Kingdom, that's our goal to get into that Kingdom) skip ahead to 1st Corinthians 15:44 It is sown a physical body; it is raised up a spiritual body. If there is a physical body, there is also a spiritual one(the scripture says if there is a physical body there is a spiritual one that is a definite) 1st Corinthians 15 However, what is spiritual is not first. What is physical is first, and afterward what is spiritual. 47 The first man is from the earth and made of dust; the second man is from heaven(it says that our first life is from the earth, our second life is from heaven, although we will still inherit the Earth because the Bible says that but just like Jesus could transfigure a spiritual body on the mountain, as a perfect person, showing us that it can be done as a perfect person, we will also be able to form a spiritual body once we have perfected our physical bodies...have you ever thought about what the tree of life was supposed to do for Adam and Eve? We could have lived forever without ever eating from the tree of Life. Jehovah God said the only reason why Adam and eve died is because they ate from the tree of knowledge (what was the tree of life supposed to accomplish?) JEHOVAH tells us: Genesis 3:22 Jehovah God then said: “Here the man has become like one of us in knowing good and bad. Now in order that he may not put his hand out and take fruit also from the tree of life and eat and live forever(THE REAL LIFE is ACTUALLY the SPIRITUAL LIFE, that's how we become TRULY ALIVE) skip ahead to 1Corinthians 15 And just as we have borne the image of the one made of dust, we will bear also the image of the heavenly one. 50 But I tell you this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit God’s Kingdom,(now remember we're supposed to inherit God's kingdom but the Bible says FLESH AND BLOOD CAN NOT INHERIT GOD'S KINGDOM so that right there tells you you're going to get a spiritual body in order to inherit God's Kingdom (because we know Jehovah can't lie(Titus1:2) because there will be more trees of life in the recreation(Mt 19:28; Re 22:14) Skip ahead to Revelation now.. Revelation 7 After this I saw, and look! a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes; and there were palm branches in their hands. 10 And they keep shouting with a loud voice, saying: “Salvation we owe to our God, who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb.(remember when Jesus transfigured himself on the mountain he was in a "white robe"(we know a lot of Revelation is symbolic) Revelation 7:14 These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and THEY HAVE WASHED THEIR ROBES and MADE THEM WHITE in the blood of the Lamb(KEEP THIS SCRIPTURE IN MIND) Revelation 21:10 So he carried me away in the power of the spirit to a great and lofty mountain, and he showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God...It had a great and lofty wall and had 12 gates with 12 angels at the gates, and on the gates were inscribed the names of the 12 tribes of the sons of Israel. 13 On the east were three gates, and on the north three gates, and on the south three gates, and on the west three gates.(notice where the city and the gates are, they are in heaven, actually earth is just supposed to be God's garden, the city is in heaven) Revelation 22:14 Happy are those who wash their robes, so that they may have authority to go to the trees of life and that they may gain entrance into the city through its gates..( notice Who gains access to the city (heaven) and it's gates(the entrance to heaven), THOSE WHO WASHED THEIR ROBES.(Re 7:14) We know those who did that came out of the great tribulation. During one of the drama movies in the assembly(Summer of 2020 Friday session) she pointed out to her student(Jade, Like Jaded) that there is no hunger, death, or pain in heaven...but we know Jesus actually hungered, felt pain and could be killed on Earth and he was perfect flesh and blood, so in order for the people on the Earth to be able to not hunger or die we would have to obtain spiritual bodies because only in heaven do they not hunger die or feel pain... Jesus was are roadmap, he was born, he was baptized, he died, but then he came back as spiritual creature and made himself known or let himself be seen to those he wanted... because also remember Jesus says in the resurrection we are as Angels (Angels are spiritual creatures) Matthew 22 In reply Jesus said to them: “You are mistaken, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God; 30 for in the resurrection neither do men marry nor are women given in marriage, but they are as angels in heaven Regarding the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, who said: 32 ‘I am the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob’? He is the God, not of the dead, but of the living( You know Jesus can't lie and faithful servants of Jehovah and followers of Jesus Christ are supposed to be resurrected if we die, just as Jesus came back as the Angels are(in the spiritual form) after he was put to death, all baptized Christians will come back as the Angels are and if they are not baptized they'll be resurrected after the 1000 years had ended because the Bible also says in Revelation that not everybody's gets resurrected during the first resurrection, there are some that come to life after the thousand years where ended Revelation 20 And they came to life and ruled as kings with the Christ for 1,000 years. 5 (THE REST OF THE DEAD DID NOT COME TO LIFE UNTIL THE 1,000 YEARS WERE ENDED.) Matthew 5:8 Happy are the pure in heart, since they will see God.(Jesus already told us servants of Jehovah will actually see God and Jesus can't lie just like Jehovah can't tell a lie and the Bible is God's word) ❤️❤️Galatians 5 On the other hand, the fruitage of the spirit is LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITH, 23 MILDNESS, SELF-CONTROL. Against such things there is NO LAW❤️❤️ Psalms 19:8 🔔The orders from Jehovah are righteous, causing the heart to rejoice;The commandment of Jehovah is clean, making the eyes shine.🔔 💡James 4:12💡 12There is only one who is Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and to destroy. But you, who are you to be judging your neighbor? Isaiah 2:22 🙏For your own sakes, quit trusting in mere man,Who is only the breath in his nostrils. Why should he be taken into account?🙏
@VideoAudioDisco09 before THIS generation that sees all these things. You obviously didn't read the entire verse. He didn't mean HIS generation, but the generation that saw all the things He talked about. Many would consider the reclaiming of Israel in 1967 would be the start of that generation. Those people today are just about in their 50's now. A generation as described in the bible can be 80 years or even 100. I wouldn't be in such a hurry to have Jesus return anyway, you don't seem prepared for the Great Tribulation when things will be way worse than some low key pandemic.
@VideoAudioDisco09 once again, the generation He is talking about is when ALL THESE THINGS have happened. All these things did not happen until Israel reclaimed their land in 1967. the generation that begins is the one that sees ALL THESE THING happen. Those in first century Judea did not see ALL THESE THIINGS happen. If you don't take the time to study the words, but just feel like some sort of "Gotcha" then you won't be happy to discover that you didn't understand the text well enough to be able to do a "I told you so". There are secular books and documents that talk about Jesus, so to claim that Jesus never existed is just lazy research on your part. Just ignoring the truth about the Bible won't make it go away.
@VideoAudioDisco09 I actually own the booklet "88 Reasons Why" which I keep hoping it might be worth something someday. Maybe an eBay item. As for the "Roman destruction of the temple is the Abomination of desolation" is not the correct definition. It is clear that it represents when Satan/Anti-Christ is standing in the Temple. Last I was aware, no person of Satan/Anti-Christ has been on earth let alone standing in the temple. That hasn't happened yet. When you do dig deeper, it become more interesting and causes people to watch the news a lot more with interest in the nation of Israel. As for the guesses out there, we have organizational cults like JW's that have made so many errors such as the 1975 fiasco where people literally sold their homes, quit their jobs, spent their savings and left family and friends. That seems like it is way worse than Harold Camping making guesses that make him look like a fool when it doesn't work out.
@VideoAudioDisco09 I remember reading the 88 reasons book when I was much younger but still thinking ... yeah, probably not. In 88 I was only 16 years old and didn't really know that much about the BIble at that time. I still wasn't thinking about giving up on my dreams or ideas of the future. It wasn't very real to me then, but an obvious concern. I was more concerned about Sept 23, 2017, and the "Revelation 12" sign that seemed very biblical to me. I remember seeing Jupiter hovering in the sign of Virgo and fitting the description of Revelation 12 so clearly as explained by Scottie Clarke with so much biblical detail. I was convinced that it was real. I really started to doubt so much after that date came and went like all the others, because this one was based on the Bible, or so I thought. Matthew 24 (Olivet Discourse) says there will be a literal world leader(antichrist) who is able to establish a peace treaty in the Middle East between Israel and her neighbors for 7 years (Dan. 9:24-27). In the middle of the 7 years he walks into the temple in Jerusalem, takes away the sacrifices (Dan. 12:11), and declares himself to be God (Dan. 9:27; 11:31; Matt. 24:15; Mark 13:14; 2 Thess. 2:3-4). He forces everybody to worship him (2 Thess. 2:4; Rev. 13:15) and requires them to have a mark in order to buy or sell anything anywhere in the world (Rev. 13:16) Matthew 24 helps us see that Jesus’ taught the above scenario too. Jesus mentions all of the following: the existence of the nation of Israel, the temple in Jerusalem, the antichrist, tribulation, the second coming (and possibly rapture). The following are general signs of his second coming: • Deception (v. 4) • False messiahs (v. 4) • Great wars (nation vs. nation) (v. 6,7) • Famines (v. 7) • Diseases & pestilences (v. 7) • Earthquakes (v.7) • Tribulation, persecution and martyrdom for believers (v. 9-10) • False prophets & apostasy (v. 11) • Lack of morality & love (v. 12) • Preaching of Gospel The first view is that Jesus is not saying these are specific signs only of the end times, but a general description of the entire church age. It’s as if he’s saying, “Don’t let these things alarm you. They will continue to happen right up until the end!” If we understand the context, Jesus is not suggesting this is all "imminent" as to happen with a decade or so. Even with modern-day technology to record earthquakes, we have still not seen a huge increase in earthquakes. People have become colder to each other and religion, and COVID-19 along with SARS, MERS, Ebola, H1N1, Zika, swine flu, etc. has been an interesting sign of pestilences. The argument is that the generation which sees Israel come back to life will not pass away until the tribulation and occurs. Israel became a nation again on May 14, 1948. • Nation of Israel became a nation again in 1948. • A generation in the Bible is 100 years (Genesis 15:13-16: "Know certainly that your descendants will be strangers in a land that is not theirs and will serve them, and they will afflict them four hundred years... But in the fourth generation they shall return here...") • 1948+100 = 2048 • Subtract 7 years for Tribulation • 2048 - 7 = rapture in *2041* (right around the time of estimated singularity!) Is the year 2041 correct??? Who knows. It's a guess. But I'm not going to sell my home in 2040. I'll be retired by that time, so probably not too worried about it anyway.
@VideoAudioDisco09 the problem with Nostrandamus, is his record of accuracy is extremely low single digit. The Bible hits above 50% with a huge portion not resolved yet for future (book of Revelation). I wouldn't label men's date/year setting as a fault of the Bible but man's own ignorance. Our inherent desire to know the answer to think like God while the Bible tells us it can't be known. We seek out those patterns in the Bible hoping to solve the Riddle but without the mind of God, who could decipher the complex structure. Cults have a way of using human expectations to trick others into accepting what "appears" to be right. Those without discerning capabilities will accept these half truths. Sadly, too many get caught up in the day to day lifestyle. Even govt uses propoganda to control people, make them do things that don't make sense. How else can you justify "Duck n Cover" to people in the 50s that thought that would work. With modern movies alone, no one today would buy that malarkey.
Well Said Samuel! You are correct about Jesus saying he would "Raise up This Temple" in three days ( his body). He had "Doubting Thomas" put his hand into the wound in his side to prove it.
LET THE BIBLE ANSWER YOU not JWs or anyone LET THE BIBLE DECIDES WHO IS TELLING THE TRUTH AND WHO IS LYING IN THIS CASE ALSO WHO IS TWISTING THE BIBLE MEANING AND WHO IS NOW RESTORING THE ORIGINAL MEANING JOHN 14:28 English Standard Version "You heard me say to you, ‘I am going away, and I will come to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I am going to the Father, for the FATHER IS GREATER THAN I". New Living Translation "......I am going to the Father, who is greater than I am." JOHN 20:17 English Standard Version Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to MY FATHER and your Father, to MY GOD and your God.’” REVELATION 1:1 English Standard Version The revelation of Jesus Christ, WHICH GOD GAVE HIM to show to his servants the things that must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, (John is talking of Jesus Christ who is back in heaven already.That God in heaven He gave Jesus this revelation after ascension) REVELATION 2:18 New International Version "To the angel of the church in Thyatira write: These are the words of the Son of God, whose eyes are like blazing fire and whose feet are like burnished bronze. (Even when he went back to heaven He is still THE SON OF GOD) REVELATION 3:2 New American Standard Bible 'Wake up, and strengthen the things that remain, which were about to die; for I have not found your deeds completed in the sight of My God (Jesus is now in heaven and still he refers to HIS GOD) REVELATION 5:9 New International Version And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood YOU PURCHASED FOR GOD persons from every tribe and language and people and nation. (He came to earth He poured His blood, through which He purchased NOT FOR HIMSELF but FOR GOD) ACTS 7:56 New Living Translation And he told them, "Look, I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing in the place of honor AT GOD'S RIGHT HAND!" (This is Stephen's words, he says what he saw was in heaven sometimes after Jesus' ascension, he didn't see Jesus alone as the Only One True God, rather he saw God and glorified Jesus at His right hand, there was no anyone else, he didn't saw Holy Spirit as the third but the preceding verse said the Stephen was full of Holy Spirit) JESUS while on earth he NEVER claim that He and His Father are equal, rather He said 'He and His Father are one and He wanted the same way He and His disciples be one. (JOHN 17:21-23 that all of them may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I am in You. May they also be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me. I have given them the glory You gave Me, so that they may be one as We are one - 23 in them and You in Me-that they may be perfectly united, so that the world may know that You sent Me and have loved them just as You have loved Me) That is not to say He is Equal to HIS FATHER While on earth He prayed to HIS FATHER and He encouraged us to do the same.....(see Lord's Prayer a.k.a Our Father) ABOUT THE SAVIOUR JEHOVAH (also translated in English as YAHWEH YHWH) God is the only savior, besides Him no other... ISAIAH 43:11 If Jehovah God did not decide to save us no one would have ever be able to do so He is the provider of Ransom sacrifice. And He chose Jesus to do the job of salvation JOHN 3:16-17 New International Version reads "For God so loved the world that HE GAVE HIS ONE AND ONLY SON Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. (Jesus did not sent Himself on, rather as He Himself said many times, HE WAS SENT BY HIS FATHER to be our savior) 1 JOHN 4:14 NIV Reads And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. (The bible never said Jesus sent Himself, nor does it says God sent himself down as Jesus, But it says GOD SENT JESUS TO BE OUR SAVIOR) LET US GO BACK TO ISAIAH 43:11 The context shows that Jehovah God (prophesying through Isaiah) was talking about Salvation of His servant Israels from Babylonian bondage ... He said he will save them from that slavery READ CHAPTER 41-46 And in this he used CYRUS to save them (compare to other verses, chapters, books of the bible and history) ISAIAH 44:28-45:2 (I shorted them) Thus says the LORD to Cyrus His anointed, Whom I have taken by the right hand, To subdue nations [BABYLON] before him And to loose the loins of kings; To open doors before him so that gates will not be shut: "I will go before you and make the rough places smooth; I will shatter the doors of bronze and cut through their iron bars.… IT IS NOT the first time for Jehovah God to use someone (human) to save his people, He used angles to save LOATH from Sodom, He used Moses to deliver Israel from Egypt, He use judges to save and/or protect Israel from their enemies BUT ALL THE CREDIT GOES TO HIM AS THE SAVIOR NOW He use Jesus to save the whole world After Jesus Christ completed that work faithful, He returned back to His Father in heaven (as we have seen above) and..... PHILIPPIANS 2:5-11 reads ...therefore GOD EXALTED HIM to the highest place, and GAVE HIM THE NAME above all names, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory OF GOD THE FATHER.… (Again all the credit goes back to Him, Jesus ones said "I am not seeking for my own glory but of the one who sent me) So Jehovah God chose Jesus His Only Begotten Son, NO ONE ELSE, to be our savior ACTS 4:12 New International Version "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved." LET ME END HERE FOR THIS OTHER ISSUES I WILL COMMENT ON THEM AT LATER TIME WOULD YOU LIKE TO KNOW MORE...? What does bible says about: 1. why Jesus is called "GOD'S ONLY BEGOTTEN SON"...? 2. what happen when we die...? 3. Is God cares for us...? if Yes...why does he permit us to suffer....? Till then Stay blessed
no need of arguing with an apostate truth seeker who abandoned the faith just like the father of the world (satan) did, cos he could not conform to Jehovah`s righteous standard. he wanted it his way and Jehovah`s organization never allowed him.
You do know that it was written like this for the actual present audience...at that time, an ancient culture with ancient understanding and mindset, Eastern mindset by the way, not Western. The Son of God, the Right Hand, Alpha and Omega, etc., all these the at-the-time present terms were known to represent a different concept than that the West has dissected and tried to make it their own. An ancient Eastern mindset, hijacked by at-the-time the fairly-newly found Western Grecian-to-Roman mindset, evolved by the powers-that-be to further Westernize it, due to many historical factors, separating the Hebraic roots from Jesus, when there is no New Testament without an Old one first. Everything Jesus was to quote came from the Old Testament. Name one Scripture Jesus quoted from the New Testament. Still waiting. So, if you want to understand the New Testament, go back in time by studying the Old Testament and the all-surrounding-histories of the Middle East, not doctrine from a Modern Western organization of those that came way after these ancient cultures, and didn't even process thought the same way, leaving so much lost in translation. For the record. your letter "J:" God doesn't care if you say Jee-suhs, Hay-soos, Yeshu'a, Iesous, Jehovah, Yahweh, etc. Man cares about that. Know that the "J" was introduced into late Latin to identify words that started with an Y from languages older than herself, to preserve this knowledge of the former languages and also identify unoriginal Latin derivatives. The Latin got Iesus from the Greek Iesous, which came from Yeshu'a, since HEBREW didn't have a "J." So it could only be "JHWH in German, where Jehovah's Witnesses did the same morphology that Latin did with the Greek, but added the vowels of Adonai to it, since Hebrew is a Consonant root language. Take JeHoWaH and pronounce it in German...now pronounce it in English...if you are too concerned about the pronunciation being correct, then all English speakers who pronounce the Name as Dzheh-Hoe-Vah, are already wrong by the German standard alone, which came before English. Not the full detail, but some language morphology: Greek doesn't have an SH or a Y like Hebrew does, and since Yeshu'a is masculine, the Greeks transliterated the Hebrew Y for the Greek I, the half vowel as a schwa sounded e, the SH for a S, and then added the Greek masucline suffix -ous. So you get Ie-S-OUS = Greek Iesous, passed down to Latin's language rules to Iesus. Latin derived much from the Greek. Greek's -ous became Latin's -us = Iesus The Romans created the "J," among other letters, in their late cultured language = Jesus, but still pronounced the same. Throughout European history, Latin's children and German's children and Arabic languages collided with each other. German pronounced Jesus GERMANLY, not modern Englishly. While English is derived much from German, English originally took the J sound from German-from-Latin, but was over influenced later by the French that morphed into the "dzh" sound, then further down the line, English elongated the "e", softened the first "s" to a "z" and the "u" sound in the name Jesus. So German gets "YEH-zoos", and English gets "DZHEE-zuhs." And Spanish, that went a whole different way with the J, gets "heh-SOOS." So in the defense of the original pronunciation, we are all wrong! But God has brought us out of all tongues, peoples, tribes and nations...so all that "BUT WHAT IS GOD'S NAME" stuff, can it. He isn't interested or invested inasmuch man is in the crazy things that divides His people that He called for His own self, will and pleasure. Know what a NAME is, and not what it sounds like, if you're going to read the Bible correctly; i.e., in the NAME of the LORD, in the NAME of Jesus, Name above all NAMES.
Thank you for pointing this out. One could also ask why they are called "Jehova's Witnesses" whereas the Bible says that we are Jesus' Witnesses and Jesus is our Savoir.
For 10 years I have been going to the meetings. Sorry to say this, but I've in countered some were rather snubbish. It made me feel unwelcomed. Some of them can put on an act of kindness but when they are not around you, it's the total opposite. It was time for me to get out of the organization. I do believe the Watch tower society is inaccurate. Some of the things you read, some are not true. You really don't know if it is true. I have the same Bible this gentleman just held up in his hand. But the thing that puzzles me! Why was the Bible changed from the original way to this new writing? I'd like it better the original way. The JW organization didn't have to change it at all. This what throws people off course.
@@a.chicboysmith9569 the truth is not for everyone. We know that. Jesus and Jehovah knows that. Jehovah draws those that want the truth, a clean life and heart. Those that love him from their heart for the love he's has given all what we do not deserve. The greatest act of love, his dear son Jesus. Serving him is not joining a church or organization. Our dedication is to him alone and we follow Jesus our leader. We all follow those that follow him. His preaching and teaching. About his kingdom the only hope for mankind. Man is not going to destroy this earth or mankind. Jehovah's mighty son will soon take action when the ruler of the world and his demons lead mankind to Armageddon.
@@a.chicboysmith9569 The new world translation is no more than other bible translation. It is a translation to have clear understanding of what manuscript meant from it's language. While the well known King James Bible used Jehovah name several places, the translator did not translate the name everywhere they saw it in manuscript, so here the King James omitted the name and used LORD instead. On the other hand, the new world translation did not add this name, but merely translated the name as they saw it in the manuscript. There is a lot of information to cover but that was brief and to the point. You may email me at adl502@aol.com and I would be glad to cover your bible questions.
John 2:21..TEMPLE OF HIS BODY: As this comment by the apostle John shows, Jesus was using figurative speech , comparing his anticipated death and ressurection and RECONSTUCTION of a building.
I am baffled that you have run into so many witnesses that are denying the resurrection in his original body. There must be some kind of misunderstanding. I was raised around the religion from birth and know for a fact that they do not deny the resurrection of Jesus in his own body. The only conclusion I can arrive at is they didn’t understand that you were trying to say that is what they believe and as that is not a bible teaching and they have never denied His physical resurrection they probably were not understanding your point. I am not a Witness for my own reasons, but I am always stunned at what they are accused of.
It is a fact the the Watchtower organization in Brooklyn denies the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ and have always taught that. Heather, l am not sure what you may be encountering, that does sound strange because l have been witnessing to J. Witnesses since 1984 and l have never met a J.W. that believed that Jesus Christ bodily rose from the dead. It is an essential teaching of theirs that Jesus rose a spirit being and as the video says, His body "dissolved into gases" or is being held by Jehovah as a "memorial." I believe if you ask a Witness acquaintance of yours they will clear it up. Make sure you are talking of a "bodily" resurrection of Christ. PEACE ! LOVE !
they do believe this Heather, my wife is one and I am a Christian; we have debated this and I explained it was a bodily resurrection; they are taught Jehovah God recreated Jesus after death, the use the word resurrection but they actually mean Carbon copy, she told me I was misinformed and we tabled the conversation. It is difficult to share the Gospel because they feel that they know and you are misinformed. I hate to generalize but it's true I even showed how Jesus eats the fish to show he isn't a spirit. Luke 24:36-39. "Now as they said these things, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them, and said to them, "Peace to you." But they were terrified and frightened, and supposed they had seen a spirit. And He said to them, "Why are you troubled? And why do doubts arise in your hearts? Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have."" They do believe it is many bodies the word "appeared" is mishandled
@@canderssonswedican7486 Mighty God. Mighty and Almighty are different because they don't share the same equal standing but many argues that they are the same. Tryin' to fit the trinity so badly yet proofs are no where to find.
@VideoAudioDisco09 when you live through what the rest of us have lived through by being in a cult you won't have to look up the definition in a book. It's not a trivial thing to have your whole world dangled over your head if you want to leave. You are a hostage and only people who have felt and lived this know the true meaning of a cult
This is also a very good verse to share with them, as they like to claim Arch Angel Michael equal with Jesus...... This will debunk that believe real quick ‼️ Jude 1:9 But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses, did not himself dare to condemn him for slander but said, "The LORD rebuke you!" See , only Jesus can rebuke ☝️😉☝️

God bless you Samuel, glad to hear that you're out of this cult. My name is Jim (Dimitris) and i've been born and live in Athens, Greece. At the age of 25 and without being a member of any church or something, while living a sinful life, i started searching and praying to God with the hope that He was alive. Then, one day, 10th of May 2013 and while i was reading the Bible and praying, confessing my sins to Him, suddenly the presence of God came upon me and i was born again (John 3), i became a witness of multiple miracles and started preaching that the Lord Jesus Christ is alive and that He saves. I would like to share with you the site of the church which the Lord guide me after @t (it also has an english translation at the top right) I wish God guide you and protect you and your family in the name of the Lord Jesus. Amen. Greetings from Greece!!!
EreynateTasGrafas Thanks my brother in Christ, but I was never in that cult. God just gave me a heart for the lost and especially those on their way to hell with Bibles in their hands.
@@samueltolley God bless you brother, i am sorry it was my fault about the cult. Glad to hear that the Lord gave you a heart for the lost and for those men, stay on the side of the Lord and work for Him as a good servant! Take a look at the site, God be with you every second!
@@ereynatetasgrafas9933God bless you, Δημήτρη. It is so hard to find saved Christians in Greece and Cyprus. May the Lord keep you strong in your faith.
i love this, i really appreciate your sincerity in saying don't embarrass them, because i see a lot of people laughing as they preach the truth, making the witnesses feel embarrassed, but that is not what God wants us to do. i appreciate how you say to pray the holy spirit reveals it, this is exactly what we have to do. you are wise and i sincerely appreciate this video, i will spread the news of the Lord from the bible and pray for the people who reject it, that he may show and reveal it to them in their hearts. i needed this video for one specific reason and i believe the Lord directed me here, thank you and God bless you
You have absolutely no clue what youre talking about, because nothing you wrote had to do with hardly ANYTHING I wrote. You are judging throughout your whole paragraph. Where did i say that I receive money for anything? How am i "rude" and "mean" for saying I appreciate him NOT trying to embarrass them, and genuinely trying to teach them the truth? You are making absolutely zero sense, and I just cannot understand where you've come up with that load of lies. Where did I say witnesses dont answer me??? My wife is a witness smart guy. And I am talking to her about all of it and she listens to me so I honestly have no clue what you are going on about.
when this videos come up sometimes i dont even want to watch because they feel either repetitive or for a christian that studies it feels easy to answer Jehovah witnesses or other sects. BUUUUT i choose to click and learn for love to those in the sects and cults if we do not love them we cant say we have Christ in us. the gospel is enough to save yes, but there can never be too much wisdom. thank you for the informative video that you so lovingly produced sir!
@@mrg466 the difference is that Jesus proved He is God in the flesh. The jw says otherwise.telling them the truth is an act of love because if they do not repent when they get to the judgment day Jesus will say depart from me I never knew you. Why? Because the Jesus in the jw teachings is not the Jesus of the bible
@@SamcoB1 the Trinity is a added lie! Furthermore it makes no sense! The Bible says, no one can see God and yet live, but many saw Jesus, so did everyone drop dead? Is Jesus praying to himself? Jesus said he can do nothing on his own, so how can he be God? The Father is Greater than I am said Jesus. The Bible says that Jesus must rule for a 1000 years, and then give the kingdom back to his father, how can he do that, if he's God? I tell you, Satan is patting himself on the back, because it's a job well done in his favor!
@@mrg466 1 John 5:7 shows the trinity. Jesus not only saw the father but in the beginning was as with him and was as him says in John 1:1 ...now the way to see how jesus prayed you have to see that 3 persons who are one doesnt mean He prayed to Himself but to the father. But they are one in unity and equality of nature. Because if Jesus was not God just as m.k such as the father why would He allow people to worship and bow down to Him. He did also say destroy this temple in 3 days I will raise it up. So saying He rose from the death is accurate also because He is God. If Jesus was sinless and perfect He must be God if He is not perfect and sinless then Sin hasn't been atoned for....but if that's the case what do the epistles teach then? See the theology of the witnesses who cant be witnesses because they have never seen Jehovah is flawed in many doctrines that are key. Along with their failed end of the world predictions
@@SamcoB1 The only thing you said that I agree with is, yes, there have been failed predictions in the past. Predictions made by people in the old days. I don't know if any of those people are still alive. As I told one person on one of these videos. I believe in being truthful, even if may hurt my defenses. I didn't want to bother with JW's because of those things. But the Elders I spoke to, didn't deny these things, and told me, that they are not happening today. I also told them I would never preach anything on the basis of predictions. Also, I do have my own mind, (no brainwashing here). As for the Trinity I will never support that teaching, if you choose that teaching, then that's ok for you, just not my thing,but thanks for reply.
Great video. But I have another follow-up question for the JW's when they said that HE manufactured his body to appear in other places at the same time; Who found out that Jesus manufactured his body and how did they know that HE manufactured his body?
I'll tell you who: the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society. JW's listen to them because they claim to have the Holy Spirit and speak for God. In reality this is anti-christ because the Watchtower places themselves in the position of God and usurps the authority of Christ.
the disciples didn't recognized his new body :JONH 21:4 However, just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the beach, but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.+ 5 Then Jesus said to them: “Children, you do not have anything to eat, do you?” They answered: “No!” 6 He said to them: “Cast the net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” So they cast it, but they were not able to haul it in because of the large number of fish.+ 7 Then the disciple whom Jesus loved+ said to Peter: “It is the Lord!” Now Simon Peter, on hearing that it was the Lord, put on* his outer garment, for he was naked, and plunged into the sea. 8 But the other disciples came in the small boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not a long way from land, only about 300 feet away. 9 When they came ashore, they saw there a charcoal fire with fish lying on it and bread. 10 Jesus said to them: “Bring some of the fish you just now caught.” 11 So Simon Peter went on board and hauled the net ashore full of big fish, 153 of them. And though there were so many, the net did not burst. 12 Jesus said to them: “Come, have your breakfast.”+ Not one of the disciples had the courage to ask him: “Who are you?” because they knew it was the Lord. 13 Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and the same with the fish. 14 This was now the third time+ that Jesus appeared to the disciples after being raised up from the dead.
Wow, so many haters on here that are quick to tear down this man’s point. Anyway, yes, I have heard them say that Jesus can manufacture a body to appear, and that he used a different body, and that he was a spirit. All from JWs. I know, I was born in and was one for 20 years, then POMI for an additional 16 years before I found Christ. I love the fact that this scripture states that HE will raise his body after 3 days. Brother, thank you for posting this video. Very well said. Don’t worry about the trolls. They post crazy things on my videos as well and they really think their logic makes sense but now it makes me first laugh, then SMH and then feel compassion for them bc they are so lost and have no idea what the Bible really does teach.
Actually JW's believe only 144,000 of their members past and present are "born again" and heaven bound. The rest of them are of the Great crowd which will live forever on a cleansed earth in the Kingdom of God. According to John chapter 3 unless one is born again he cannot even see the kingdom of God. A verse or two later He also says unless one is born of water and spirit he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. The current JW's knocking at your door have a problem. They are not "born of water and spirit". How can they possibly think they can see the Kingdom of God let alone enter into it?
mimiluvfromsf it means physically out mentally in. I didn’t go to any meetings or assemblies but in my mind I still believed all the doctrines and never went anywhere else because I believed it was “the truth”
Lavender Frog. "Mentally in" You were one of many victims of cult mind control. I was headed in that direction many years ago. Thank fully I found a book by William Schell, "Errors of Jehovah's Witnesses". I was never a JW, I only studied one of their books with them. But for a while after reading this book I still questioned: "What if this book is wrong?" I came to my senses. I'm so glad you were freed from their clutches.
John C. Thank you. My husband, who is a Christian, prayed for me for 8 years before I found Jesus. It truly is the most free And happiest feelings I’ve ever felt! Now I try to help other JWs break free of the watchtower and find Jesus
It's absutely mind numbing seeing the constant conflict in comment sections under every video concerning Christianity. All due to one thing, one Word sums it up, IGNORANCE! JESUS said that His Fathers children are doomed for the lack of Knowledge, IGNORANCE!
I have one that has really fashioned onto me. Needed to know how to battle with her. Keeps coming to my house unannounced. And you are so true. If I could hug you I would. Thank you my brother.....🙏🏾
Simply put, JW's don't want to waste time anymore than you do, if your not interested, just tell them, and ask to be put on their do not contact list, and they will skip over you, and this goes for any others reading this post including those who make these types of videos.
Here's a quote from the "Delian Problem": Doubling the Cube, the most famous of the collection, is often referred to as the Delian problem due to a legend that the Delians had CONSULTED PLATO on the subject. In another form, the story asserts that the Athenians in 430 B.C. consulted the oracle at Delos in the hope to stop the plague ravaging their country. They were advised by Apollo to double his altar that had the form of a cube. As a result of several failed attempts to satisfy the god, the pestilence only worsened and at the end they turned to PLATO for advice." See anything wrong with this quote? PLATO was born in 428 BCE. So he is being consulted some 2 years before his own birth. This is just one example of what happens when the timeline is artificially expanded. The only possible eclipse that can be linked to the beginning of the Peloponnesian War is a total eclipse that occurred in January of 402 BCE, meaning the PPW began in 403 BCE. At 30-year peace agreement ended in the 10th year of the war, that is, 394 BCE. If that was the original 30-year peace agreement enacted at the time of Xerxes' invasion of Greece, then the invasion took place in 424 BCE. The year of Xerxes' invasion has two critical references: 1) It must be an Olympic year. Check. 2) There must be an eclipse over Persia in the "early spring," meaning the first month of Spring. Check. There was an eclipse on March 21st. There was no eclipse in the early Spring in 480 BCE, the revised year for Xerxes' invasion. Of note, when 424 BCE dates Xerxes' invasion correctly, the Battle of Marathon occurrs 10 years earlier in 434 BCE. Two Greek references confirm Darius I died at Marathon. If that's the case, then the temple was completed late this year (Ezra 6:14,15) since the temple was completed the year Darius I died after 21 years of building beginning the 1st of Cyrus. Thus if we add 21 years to 434 BCE, the true date for the 1st of Cyrus would fall in: 455 BCE! This is just one of several ways to confirm the original year for the 1st of Cyrus in 455 BCE, which matches the Bible's reference that Jerusalem would begin to be rebuilt in 455 BCE. Even JWs recognize that. Only they date 455 BCE to year 20th of Artaxerxes rather than the 1st of Cyrus. Anyway, just thought you'd like knowing that Plato is being consulted 2 years before his birth with the present chronology, which is impossible. That chronology also dates the fall of Jerusalem in 587/586 BCE, a date some presume to be accurate, but is not. More importantly, it is not BIBLICAL. The Bible requires the fall of Jerusalem to take place in 529 BCE; not 607 BCE or 586 BCE. Thanks for doing a video on this interesting discrepancy! Thanks for your videos!

In John 2:18-22, Jesus did not lie when he said his body would be resurrected. What Body was Jesus raised in? A spiritual body as we are told in 1 Corinthians 15:45 "The last Adam is a life-giving spirit." (BBE) So he did not lie. Here is some more of 1 Corinthiand 15 from the KJV Please take note of the words in bold "42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: 43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: 44 It is sown a *natural body;* it is raised *a spiritual body.* There *_is_* a natural body, and there *_is_* a *spiritual body.* 45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. 46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. 47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. 48 *As is the earthy,* such are they also that are earthy: and *as is the heavenly,* such are they also that are heavenly. 49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. 50 Now this I say, brethren, *that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God;* neither doth corruption inherit incorruption." Jesus took on a spiritual body. He was able to manifest a physical body, and took on several forms. that is why his followers did not recognise him by appearance but by what he said and did
defence, Jesus said, "destroy THIS TEMPLE and I'll raise IT up again." John 2:19 *Question* What did the Pharisees destroy? a) a human body? b) a spirit creature?
tim spangler solid. Anyone who hurts children or covers the tracks of those who are abusing children has a special place in the lake of fire if they don't repent and believe the gospel. No Christian would ever do these things, which shows us the God we serve is different. Catholic abuse of children, jw's abuse and cover up of child abuse, Islam also does the same, and Scientology too. All these people are buying into the lie and worshipping Satan, knowingly or unknowingly. Doesn't matter its all the same for the children being abused behind the closed doors of these "peaceful religions". These facts helped me to find and accept the truth and even helped me to forgive these abusers (I was raped at 3 years of age) when I was not saved when I found out what exactly happened and who did it, I was intent on getting a gun and putting a whole through the mans head. I heard this in my head and heart when I was planning this that stopped me from carrying out my plan, it said "if you do this you will be just as bad as him.". I was 18 when I was planning this. I went through horrible experiences until I got saved at 22 years of age. Jesus Christ paid it all, all to Him I owe. Hallelujah.
Watchtower Defence verse 42 says, "it is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption" and in verse 44 "it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body". The difference isn't in appearance. The difference is in the mortality of the former and the immortality of the latter. The bible doesn't actually say what we will look like in heaven, but it also doesn't NOT say. Verse 49 above means that, in heaven, our bodies will be changed into the likeness of Christ.
Let the scriptures teach us, let's not change them to suit our religious beliefs. You are right on the money, brother! Keep up the good work. God bless you!!!

I used to just study with the JW's and although I was considering getting baptized, the more I learned, the more turned off I was. I don't like the teaching that the "Organization" is the way to Jehovah, and YES that is one of their teachings. With that in mind, they believe that the magazines and books are infallible as they allegedly are written by the Governing Body of "anointed" brothers. This is very dangerous. They let the Organization TELL them what to believe AND they taught me that without the publications Bible comprehension is impossible. I am grateful that I never got baptized into the organization. My niece is a dis-fellowshipped JW and her own MOM will NOT have anything to do with her. It has destroyed her faith and desire to seek God. Jesus never shunned anyone. And, I do believe that to put the wicked man out of the congregation does NOT mean to never speak to them or encourage them to repent. It's a Satanic teaching. Thank you for your video. I am a new subsciber :-)
Powerful testimony and much sadness for anyone that believes shunning to be a practice of a loving God who never shuns us and celebrates IMMEDIATELY when one comes back (Prodigal Son) and not the 2-week practice of the JW's.
I studied with the JW's for 10 months asking questions and seeking answers that were often ignored or just glossed over with limited discussion, an opportunity to change the subject to avoid truth being exposed. When I learned that baptism did not use standard Biblical baptism (in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) but instead "baptized in the name of Jehovah’s organization and make sure that the candidate understands that “the good and acceptable and perfect will of God” is nothing less than absolute obedience to the Watchtower Organization" I knew I was part of a cult for certain.
God does shun people and has from the beginning of Adam and eve please study the bible it's all in there.
@@roberttaylor6075 can you provide a verse from the New Testament where God shunned someone for a reference? I'm not interested in the Old Testament as we are in the NEW age of grace which is the time frame that we can apply to modern time. Old Testament time when lambs were sacrificed for forgiveness and other old concepts are no longer applicable today.
@@georgebauerschmidt5289 could you show me a verse that in the new testament that says disregard the old testament and anything in it and just use the new testament. Out of interest what religion do you follow.
@@roberttaylor6075 religion is a man-made construct so there is no need to follow any particular one. Jesus said to follow Him. Paul preached the same, never advocating for a religion. No religion provides salvation. Salvation comes by FAITH alone in Jesus. (Romans 10:9-10, Acts 2:21, John 3:16, Acts 16:31, Ephesians 2:8-9)
Also, if we follow the Old Testament in modern days, when was the last time a lamb was sacrificed for sins? Do we follow the civil codes of Leviticus where we kill kids that disobey parents? Or those who curse their father or mother are put to death? Or any married woman who commits adultery is put to death?
What about the Sabbath ,part of the 10 commandments, is it strictly followed today?
Once again, please show me a verse where God/Jesus shunned someone in our modern age of the New Testament. How about a verse or parable that shows the complete OPPOSITE!
Consider the parable about the Prodigal Son. It does not teach shunning, just the opposite. A son disobeys his father and goes off on his own to experience "the world" but when he chooses to repent and returns, he is welcome IMMEDIATELY with open arms, joy, fellowship and acceptance. Did the son have to sit in the back of the home, not talk to anyone, look sorrowful, write a letter requesting to be reinstated and wait months to determine if the he is repentant enough? NO! JW's use anti-biblical practices which have no place in any religion.
GBU Brother! Here's another verse that is extremely clear: "Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me and see; for a SPIRIT hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have." This declaration was given, after He had appeared to them, quoting: "Peace be unto you."; and they became terrified, thinking that He was a spirit! (Luke 24:33-39). Keep the good work! 🌹
God caused him to be seen so the disciples would know he was raised up.
Excellent!
@Scott4200good question. It’s because after he was risen he was glorified so because of that he had a glorified body look back to when Jehovah appeared to Abraham in genesis 18:1-5 you can see they ate also because it was Jesus that appeared to him along with his angels for no one has seen the father at any time. But as Jesus said before Abraham was, I AM. The reference to that is when the same as when Moses said who should I tell them sent me? The the LORD said tell them I AM who I AM sent you.
@Scott4200 dude are you fr? I just answered one he wasn’t tied down by being a man once he was glorified he had a totally different way of moving he already had the power to do everything as a man while being in gods form. Once he rose from the dead. He had the same body he promised all who believe on his name and repent of their sins. “Have a changing of mind” and walk accordingly to the spirit and not according to the flesh.
@Scott4200 why did Tomas say to him once he finally understood when he said my Lord “and” my God? Isaiah 9:6 should clear it up for you let the meter be established on the witness of two that’s why the Old Testament was written of Jesus preparing the way for god to take on bodily form and redeem man from sin. He became sun so that we may become righteous.
I used not to be a Christian who dig deep into scripture, until a day when JWs told me we had to pray to only Jehovah, not Jesus, that Jesus is Angel Michael (qouted in watch tower magazine).. Jesus is not God... This sounded strange , i started to re study the bible with empty mind like a new kid, but believe me, most of the things they told me, about Jesus were completely out of context...I love them and pray God brings them to light,
The question is: 'Whom did God SEND from heaven to become the Messiah?'
(Galatians 4:4) But when the full limit of the time arrived, God SENT HIS SON, who was born of a woman and who was under law,
Could it have been just any angel?
'To WHICH of the ANGELS did God say...' - Hebrews 1:5,13.
Give it some thought. Let me know is an answer comes to one's mind.
Great presentation, Samuel. I used that approach with a JW elder and he was completely baffled. Said he never saw that before.
My dad used to invite them into our home. He had his Bible. They always left in a hurry after a few questions. You are right on!!!!! Thx brother. I thank Yahuauh has lifted my wisdom to where it is. Praise my Savior Jahushua.

Thank you Sir for sharing this with us. I have been studying with some JW and I asked them about these same verses. They told me that they have to do more research. They never came back to me with an answer but always want to come with other subjects. Next time I will insist to have an answer or no more study.
Though their teachings aren't common christian dogma , they do point to multiple scriptures
Luke 24:31,
John 20:26, doors were locked, yet he appeared inside.
John 20:14
If he did reappear in the same body, why would people not recognize him? 3 times. Even Mary.
John 21:4-8(but that convo was 300 ft apart)
Scriptures that may apply:
And 2 cor 5:16(nkjv)
"Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer."
Or 1 tim 3 : 16 (nwt)
"He was made manifest in flesh, was declared righteous in spirit, appeared to angels... ... was received up in glory."
If Jesus existed as an angel before his human birth he may have returned to that realm of existence. Would his human body be essential or may have Jesus been speaking, NOT about his literal flesh?
Remember, he also said "unless you eat this flesh...."
Did he mean his literal muscles and tendons?

Hello Nahomie, I hope you still contiued to study and made your way to dadicate your life to Jehova God in Jesus name.
what question?
You can also share this scripture with them out of their own bible.
Luke 24:39 See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself; touch me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones just as you see that I have.” NWT
Sharing any scripture out of any bible is a joy to us. Sharing is better than hiding.

@@seekr6964 I can on What? But make sure you can stand it.
This works. And God gave it to me in the moment when I was street witnessing in Augusta GA. The JWs had booths and people on both sides of the road for 2 miles going to the Augusta National Master's Golf Tourney a few years back. I stopped at every booth and witnessed to them. Finally, they sicked an elder on me when they couldn't answer my questions, and in the moment I asked the elder "Who raised Jesus from the dead?".
He said God. I said "good we agree, Jesus is God!"
He says NO NO NO Jesus isn't God!
I took him to that verse and asked him if he was calling Jesus a liar?
No answer.
They have not been back to that tournament since!
(Acts 2:32) God resurrected this Jesus, and of this we are all witnesses.
Perhaps Peter got it wrong????
If dead persons can resurrect themselves, God will be without a job.
Is Jeses not the son of god???
@@tongakhan230 There is no contradiction here if you believe in the Trinity. You, however, are still stuck with the problem of did Jesus lie when he said that He would raise his body from the dead. Remember we believe that Jesus IS God. So, no. Peter was absolutely correct.
@@tempermode : Where exactly did Jesus ever claim that he could resurrect himself. Impossible though it be.
Dead persons do not exist. How can someone who does not exist do anything?
Psalms 146:3 Do not put your trust in princes Nor in a son of man, who cannot bring salvation.
4 His spirit goes out, he returns to the ground; On that very day his thoughts perish. (See also Eccl 9:5,10).
And why would eyewitnesses testify that it was God who brought Jesus back into existence?
Acts 3:15 whereas you KILLED the Chief Agent of life. BUT GOD RAISED HIM UP FROM THE DEAD, of which FACT WE ARE WITNESSES.
Thank you, The most important element that I got about what you shared, we must approach them with love and our God will do the rest.
You might want to read my reply. And if you have any questions from it. Please request it and hear what we believe through us not someone that isn't one of us.
Jerry Perez yes Love and if we don’t tell them then we don’t love them ...
But we always want to go back to the Bible which teaches us we are to say the word and the Holy Spirit will do the teaching. The word is the most important, love is just what we are to do
Jerry Perez, I appreciate that. But approach us? Most run and avoid us! Ask yourself why? Are we terrorist, murderers, or teachers of God's word? We show people the solution to all problems even we have problems ourselves. No one will be problem free until Jehovah and Jesus ends them. Jehovah decides when and Jesus will carry it out! So who shows the love? It's Jehovah God the Almighty! We show the love to you! We want you to know. We see the signs and hope that you respond to save yourselves as Jehovah's day approaches.
But why do you have to approach JEHOVAH'S Witnesses? Do you approach Catholics, Muslims, what about Isis?
What makes you think that you are a Christian? Do you know that a Christian is a follower of CHRIST? And he who claims to know him yet they do not obey his commands is a liar and the truth is not in him?(1 John 2 v4)
Jesus gave a command at Acts1 v8 Jehovah's witnesses obey it . DO YOU? What about Acts5 v 42 Acts20 v20 Matthew 24 v14 Matthew 28 v 19 and 20? JEHOVAH'S witnesses obey do you? Do you know how the disciples first came to be called Christians? 1Corinthians 11 v 26, Jehovah's witnesses conform to what the disciples did, DO YOU?
Do you realize that Mary (Jesus own mother) did not recognize him. Have you ever wondered why? The disciples who were with Jesus daily did not recognize him at first on every occasions after his resurrection, do you ever wonder why? Obviously, if maybe the first time they saw him after his resurrection they did not recognize him, that might be ok, butwhat happened all the other times?
Do you know that angels could materialise human bodies? + ( Genesis 6 v 2) (Jude 6)
Flesh and blood can not enter into Heaven, (1 CORINTHIANS 15 v 50 ) so how are you going to explain Acts1 v 9 to the people you are misleading?
Mark 14:58 We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.
No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.”

Good points, Sam. Sadly, when it comes to JW's they believe the publications OVER the Bible. As for His return, Acts 1:11
"Men of Galilee, why are you gazing up into heaven? The same Jesus who was taken from your sight will return the same way you SAW Him go. SAW...eyesight. Sadly, JW's say this has to do with "eyes of understanding". Understanding what?
John 20:25-28 is another good text. "Thomas, handle me and see. A *SPIRIT* does *NOT* have flesh and bone as you see that I have"* And Thomas called Him "My Lord and my GOD".
I have had JW's dance around this text with such moves as to make Michael Jackson look like he had two left feet! A couple of them said Thomas was startled. At what? Jesus was talking for a few minutes before Thomas declared Jesus was his Lord and his GOD. If Thomas reacted because he was startled, Jesus would have reprimanded him for blasphemy if all he did was say "Oh my lord, oh my God, because something scared him.
I had to get a Greek and Hebrew, cause the Greek is VERY specific. Each word has to fit 5 categories. Sorry if I missplelled that last word.
Both JW and non JW, misunderstand each other when speaking about Jesus return.
Carl Ranns
“Look at my hands. Look at my feet. You can see that it’s really me. Touch me and make sure that I am not a ghost, because ghosts don’t have bodies, as you see that I do.” As he spoke, he showed them his hands and his feet. Still they stood there in disbelief, filled with joy and wonder. Then he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?” They gave him a piece of broiled fish, and he ate it as they watched.”
Luke 24:39-43
This is the biggest lie i have ever seen. "JW's believe the publications over the bible" we base all of our publications off of the bible. if you looked at them you'd see for everything it says it has a scripture backing it up.
Emma Buczynski one scripture taken out of context isn’t bible based. For example show us 1914, or Jesus being Michael in the Bible... you can’t. Show us Governing Body. The faithful and discreet slave is a parable

I don’t know much but I know my god isn’t that harsh on us . I believe that this religion is a cult . They do make ppl feel scared and confused .
Then follow up w how jesus told thomas to put his hand in his side etc.." A SPIRIT does not have a BODY (flesh and bone) as you see i do....a resurrected spirit body has flesh and bone not flesh and blood

@@gustavmahler1466 typical watchtower deceitfulness quoting a part and not the whole. Why not finish quoting the whole verse? "And when they did not find his body, they came back saying they had even seen a vision OF ANGELS, who said that he was alive." It says they did not find his body. They saw a vision of Angels. The Angel's said he was alive. How do you get that Jesus' appearances were merely visions and not physical? John 20:27ff Jesus told Thomas to put his hand in his side. How does one put ones hand in a vision? This one event brought Thomas to the point of calling Jesus "my God" (theos). Which would be blasphemy if Jesus was not theos. Jesus did not correct him, which he should have if Thomas was wrong. John 2:19-21 Jesus said, " destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up....he was speaking of the temple of his body (soma-physical body)....when therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this, and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had spoken" back to Luke 24: but they were startled and frightened and thought they were seeing a spirit. And he said to them, "why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh (sirx ) and bones as you see I HAVE. And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet (real physical). Then he ate physical food in front of them. Visions dont eat food or have touchable body parts.
@@peggywells8581 Jesus obedience raise it up and in Mark 14:58 says ''another'' temple made without hands not same temple (body)
“ 'Tear down this temple, and in three days I will raise IT up.' -- he was talking about the temple of his body." -Jn.2:19, 21 New World Translation. (Emphasis added). Jesus raised up the same body he was speaking to the Jews in. Clear as can be.
Amen, exactly!!
Exactly! He even folded His clothes for it to be ready for Him when He came back
The Jesus is God people put their emphasis on Jesus saying I WILL RAISE" they use it in that way to prove it. Basically we all do and say that to show whoever we are talking to that they will see us again. " I'm going to Jail, but I'll be back." Upon one hearing that instills assurance. Who tore the Temple down? Whether it was Jehovah that tore the temple down or man did it the point is that Jesus was coming back to life. Life as a human being.
@@j.wat.3437 No sir, that is a false equivalency. That would work if we had the authority to release ourselves from jail but we would go and be released when our time has been served. Using that situation, Jesus would be the one releasing Himself at His will. There were a few instances where a miracle Jesus preformed was resurrection. In Matthew 9:23 Jesus resurrects a girl who had just died and people had began to mourn and grieve for exhibiting His authority to restore life. Something only God can do. Jesus didn't have to pray to God for Him to resurrect someone, He said it and it was done. Jesus is God. Not the form of God that is God The Father, but the one that makes Him Son Of Man. Just as The Holy Spirit is God. Not God The Father, but the very Spirit of God Himself whom is able to be sent out to do His work. John 1:1-4 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God , and the Word was God.
The same was in the beginning with God.
All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made.
In him(The Word aka Christ); and light was the life of men."
A distinction was made to acknowledge that the Word is separate from God while still being God.
After that, John the baptist was spoken about because he is who was sent to bear witness to the coming of the true Light that was Jesus. You should read John chapter 1. All of the scriptural support for that is the entire 1st chapter.
@@dashiagraceelias5944 I don't feel like messing up another John 1ner. Go find another OOJWs please.

@@blueforest4589 Um, nope. I think (along with Bible scholars) that there are too many matching copies of the Bible that there are no problems. There can be missing commas or added periods on one version but doctrine has absolutely NOT been changed. Human thinking would assume that there have been changes but God won't have His word changed. Therefore, actually, I really DO know.
@@blueforest4589 Those are the EXACT same examples I use with my English students, LOL!
However, on our topic... We have all the other copies with the commas in the right place, NO doctrine issues and the Gospel stays the same.

@@blueforest4589 So much for logic on your part. Look at the title of the video. Look at how your line of argument does not apply to that issue or what my point is. My line of thought has to do with discussing theology with JWs. Are you a JW?
As an ex Jehovah's witness and now a Child of God( Christian) I do not know what JW's you have talked to but they are not taught that Jesus Body was not Resuerected so this should not even be a debate. I used to go door to door and even use examples as to how a person can be resurrected in their body. Yes Jehovah's witnesses is a man made religion and unfortunately has many rules and thoughts that are not from my Father but this is a bad example because they are not taught this.
Thanks for the info and sharing. Good to know and praise the Lord your free.
I hear the most silliest things from my beloved jehovah witness friends
If you read the KJV or NKJV to a Jehovah witness they will dismiss it as a demonic version. We can show Jehovah witnesses that Jesus is Jehovah from their own translation.
“I am the *Alʹpha and the O·meʹga,”* says Jehovah God, “the One who is and who was and who is coming, the Almighty.” (Revelation 1:8) NWT
Ask them who is the Alpha and the Omega? They’ll say it’s Jehovah God. Then ask them to read Revelation 21:6-7.
And he said to me: “They have come to pass! I am the Alʹpha and the O·meʹga, the *beginning and the end.* To anyone thirsting I will give from the spring of the water of life free. 7 Anyone conquering will inherit these things, and I will be his God and he will be my son. (Revelation 21:6-7) NWT
Then ask who is the beginning and the end? They’ll say it’s Jehovah God. Then ask them to read Revelation 22:12-13.
“‘Look! I am coming quickly, and the reward I give is with me, to repay each one according to his work. 13 I am the Alʹpha and the O·meʹga, *the first and the last,* the beginning and the end. (Revelation 22:12-13) NWT
Ask them who is the first and the last? Of course, they’ll say it’s Jehovah God. Now you’ll notice in verse 16 that the verses opens up with “I Jesus.”
*“‘I, Jesus,* sent my angel to bear witness to you about these things for the congregations. I am the root and the offspring of David and the bright morning star.’” (Revelation 22:16) NWT
But what the Jehovah witness may say, is that the speaker has changed. It obviously hasn’t but that’s fine, just ask them who the first and the last is. Then finally turn the witness back to Revelation 1:17-18 and have them read this:
When I saw him, I fell as dead at his feet. And he laid his right hand on me and said: *Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last, 18 and the living one, AND I BECAME DEAD, but look! I am living forever* and ever, and I have the keys of death and of the Grave. (Revelation 1:17-18) NWT
Then after the witness reads this verse ask them this question, when did Jehovah God die? The witness has already told you that Jehovah God is the First and the Last. So, the speaker does not change. Their own bible tells them that Jehovah died. According to Jehovah witnesses own theology, Jehovah God has never died. Their own bible proclaims that Jesus is Jehovah!
Apologist and evangelist, Ray Comfort, gives a great strategy. In his illustration he says to ask a Jehovah witness this:
“Imagine there is a knife in my back and I only have three minutes to live before I bleed out. What must I do to enter Jehovah’s kingdom?”
The Jehovah witness wanted to talk about the Watchtower magazine but they’ll probably entertain the question and respond by saying sonething like there are many things. They may even tell you they don’t really know except come to the kingdom hall, read more books and do lot’s of works. Then gently ask them this:
“Well, what did the thief on the cross have to do to enter Paradise with Christ?”
He had to do nothing! It proves a point to get them to think. You see, Jehovah witnesses don’t have a way to enter Jehovah’s kingdom except lots and lots of works.
I use to shrug them off but they are use to a lot of hate. They dedicate their life to evangelising. Of course they are tremendously in error in their theology and sending people to hell but everything is on the line for them if they confess Jesus is God.
@@megan1445 Revelation 1:8, Where does the Revelation come from? Rev1:1 states "God!"

For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.” Jesus WAS an angel when he was in heaven, why do you think it says Jesus will ressurect people with an ARCHANGELS CALL? he is much more powerful and has more authority than an archangel now, so why would he be using a power WEAKER than his own? because he was michael the Archangel. what do you mean "how can an angel be a mediator" if god granted an angel the authority he can do whatever he wants. Michael was the only thing in the universe god created by hand, which is why God considers him special, Jesus created everything else. so Jesus / Michael was in a very unique position to fill that role. this isnt rocket science.
@@lovelymya. what about them? the bible does not say they went to heaven. John 3:13 - No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven-the Son of Man.
I like talking to jw's about God's name. They like saying is Jehovah... but I like questioning. What about the name Jahweh? They offen say. You can use either or. Then I'm like.... what about the name yahowah? They stay stun. I'm normally like, yeah, you didn't know they made that name to cover jahweh up? Yes, and when it came to latin *man* did with the name from yahowah into jehovah.
I like talking to them about the name in the torch (tetragrammation.) Which is YHWH. And let them know man put in the vowels. Its true. now, if you can get this far.... let them know the meaning of YHWH. When reading the name as (YHWH) *yood hey vav hey.* comes back to saying in the old Hebrew. *Behold the nail, behold the hand.* Now, the word behold can also be known as the word reveal. So it can also be reveal the nail, behold the hand. Anyways, i let them know.... who can Moses be referring to in the old Hebrew with these 4 letters i ask? Because you can still say the name jehovah which *man* inserted the vowels into YHWH to make up that name. So, whats his name?
At the end... they leave with a fraud face. But stun. Yup, they do the walk of shame. Its halerious. Sometimes they leave saying well, I know him as jehovah because thats what most bibles say. Then I come at them saying... well, did you know that man is inserting words into scripture? So, you just can't trust any theology now in days. Then I take them there bible (nwt) in which they add the word *other* in colossians 1:14-16. So, whos bible is right; mine or yours? I ask them. Then I like; Your saying you believe jehovah is his name just as you believe your bible is correct which man inserting the word *other* in it? I let them know the word other was inserted by them, in 1951. So at the end i question them. Your telling me your going base on what man does with scripture? As they leave you might here them say "I not here to argue." I quickly yell as their on there way. Neither was I. I actually love sharing with you who is really jehovah.
Thanks for being low key and kind! Having truth is not a license for arrogance
Another thing that's good to point out in those verses is where Jesus says HE will rebuild the temple in 3 days. He is claiming power and authority in doing something only God can do thus making a statement of his own Divinity.
You make an excellent point. I have memorized scriptures through the years for encounters with Jehovah Witnesses .
This is another great one. Thank you. And may God richly bless you.
Read 1peter 3:18
Brother all there answers based upon BIBLE....NOT THERE OWN
Religious people hate facts. only10% of the old testament exists and thats not ftom the horses mouth. 30 to 40% of the new testement exist. On top of that the book came into existence 50 to 100 AD. Even in the old testament it speaks of multple gods or supeme beings im just saying that book is fairly new. In fact the monotheistic belief is new. The binle is for one spacific people. Cannanites and isrealites. Before that it was EL or ELshaddai, elohim. Elohia, Yahweh etc etc.same people witch was converted to polythheistic.very new stuff. Sumatians talked about adam and eve and Eden what 3500 yrs before that. Hummm and i was a jw.a bunch of lies and stories. Same reason for the separation of eastern orthodox and romam catholics. The schism of 1054.communication problems between them over words and the meaning in another language, amongst other things. One book, a thousand diffrent ways to interpret one word. Now think about the stories our 5× over greatgrand kids will tell about us. A magic snake charmer, when all you did was kill a garter snake. Or how about you faught off a pack of wolves while stranded on a snow bluff in hollywood with a baby im one hand. When in reallity your old bookie and his henchmen caught up with you in Vegas and took your wiener dog and let you survive?
What is the exelent point about arguing over a book written by romans then translated in many languages throughout history and rewritten during many reform. They lied to you and they made you scared of god. The real teachings were not to scare people away but find Peace and love. If they are teaching you of wars and catastrophy. Blaming god for all misery of mankind. Insulting god. God was never anger and was never jelousy. That is only in man. Because of the mistakes. Life is the gift from god and death is mistake of a man. You don't know nothing.
I'm not a JEHOVAH witness but, Jesus was not resurrected in the flesh or that would make Jesus Christ a liar because he says in the resurrection we come back as the Angels do and the angels are spiritual creatures spiritual creatures are invisible,
Matthew 22
Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, snot knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but tare as the angels of God in heaven. 31 But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, 32 I uam the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living. 33 And when the multitude heard this, they vwere astonished at his doctrine
Also since Jesus was only dead like 3 days why was it that they could not recognize Jesus he should have the same face right they had a conversation with them and they still didn't recognize him until he broke bread did they recognize him actually and this was the first time they had seen them since he had been put to death, when Lazarus was resurrected they recognized him when he came out of the memorial tombs
Luke 24
And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, kJesus himself drew near, and went with them. 16 But ltheir eyes were holden that they should not know him.
Luke 24
And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. 31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.
Now notice how once Jesus broke bread their eyes were open and then right after that day he vanished out of their sight, not run or hide(like he was doing before he was killed or Resurrected) out of their sight he vanished or disappeared out of their sight, freshly humans cannot do this..
John 21
But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples cknew not that it was Jesus.
John 21
Jesus saith unto them, iCome and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord. 13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise. 14 This is now jthe third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.
John 21
Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and the same with the fish. 14 This was now the third time that Jesus appeared to the disciples after being raised up from the dead.
So at this point they had seen Jesus three times since he had been resurrected and they still did not recognize him our fleshly bodies don't change by the day unless we can materialize new fleshly bodies because he was resurrected in the spiritual form as he said it Matthew 22 because that's the only way you can get everlasting life, because flesh and blood cannot inherit God's Kingdom (1st Corinthians 15:50) but spiritual creatures can materialize fleshly bodies if Jehovah God allows them to and saying to Jesus had the authority well he materialize the fleshly body that's why he was appearing and disappearing and unrecognizable
Acts 26
aThat Christ should suffer, and zthat he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and yshould shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.
Jesus Christ was the first to rise from the dead or to a spiritual life because it's Matthew 22 points out we come back as the Angels do so that's why he was the first to rise actually from the dead and to everlasting life, because Lazarus was also brought back from the dead and brought back into the sinful flesh but he still died in sin and many other people were resurrected in the flesh but they again died and sin
Thank you, thank you, thank you, sir!! I needed this so much! My 15yo son, who lives with his Mom and step-dad has been influenced by a "pretty" little JW girl. He's been saying that he wants to convert to JW. I've been using scriptures and prayer to try to convince him that the JW cult is wrong. So, I REALLY needed this wisdom. Thank you so much for posting and sharing this nugget in God's Word.
Again, thank you and may God richly bless you and yours...

Any success
I can tell you.... Leave your son alone... He is in better place.
@@Salvation4allnations I'm interested too, I hope he found Jesus.
except that hes wrong.
@@promiseemah589 Unless you're a demon,
I don't know how being in a Demonic Cult is a " better place."
I agree with what this man said. At the same time I pose this question, in the following Bible verses at the Last Supper Jesus says about the bread this IS my Body...How are we to take this as Christian's. There is one correct answer just like he said if we look at it through the eyes of Jesus. It's either really His Body or it's a symbol. If it's a symbol then Jesus is lying.
Mark 14:22
While they were eating,f he took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, and said, “Take it; this is my body.
Luke 22
Then he took the bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which will be given for you; do this in memory of me.”
Matthew 26:26
While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, “Take and eat; this is my body.”
I don't care what they think. "Theology is nothing but ropes of sand to the Moon." But what people do is of great importance, and I believe it is noticed by God. The Witnesses were the first religious group in Germany to say "NO" to Hitler. They meant it! The Christian churches did every thing they could to go along and get along.
good point
don reed The JW’s made efforts to appease Hitler before Hitler started killing them. The Watchtower isn’t giving you all of the facts. jwfacts.com/watchtower/hitler-nazi.php
Yup Christians bowed before Hitler. Crazy.
Jesus said the devil never divides his kingdom up. The JWs probably don't know how to deal with Jesus just like the mormons, and muslims
I'm a Jehovah's witness and the bible says Jesus was resurrected in his own body. Luke 24:36-39. Could these verses have caused confusion between you and the witnesses who visited you? John 20:14-15, 21:4-7 says they did not recognize Jesus.
I tell you what is confusing. The Watchtower claims its first president Charles Russell accurately foretold events ahead of 1914, yet he was absolutely wrong about everything he predicted.
I answer that question above in Daniel Moya's comment. Easy one. John 20:14-16
No he was not wrong about everything. The main prediction was that the Kingdom would be established in heaven in 1914 fulfilling Daniel 7:13 and the prophesy in Daniel 4. Jesus prophesies in Matt 24 confirms that as did the prophesy in Rev 12:7-12.
They did think Armageddon would follow and it seemed to with world war 1 starting in 1914. The end of the world did not come then but the separation work did start then and that is the preaching work JWs are still doing.
If you want to see more errors in prediction read Hal Lindsey's Late,
great Planet Earth. Also the Catholic Church thought the end was coming in the year 1000. But even Jesus followers asked if the end was coming in their time. Frank;y I had rather someone told me it was coming soon so I will get ready now rather than later. Jesus said we would not know the day or hour. I am still waiting, how about you?
Hey Barry, what proof do you have that Jesus's kingdom was established in 1914? When you find the gray matter that is usually located between your ears, let me know the answer. Thanks, TTYL.
3/15/2019: Wow, I smiled when you said that “they do NOT know the Bible but Watch Tower theology”; and, you are absolutely RIGHT. I am in my 60’s and I do not ever remember JW’s coming to my door. Well, last Halloween, I had 2 women come to my door and they asked me, Do you know the kingdom of heaven? I say that I did. The KINGDOM IS A PERSON (JESUS CHRIST) and it is a PREPARED PLACE for a PREPARED PEOPLE. I started talking with them concerning GOD’s kingdom and JESUS CHRIST. They never asked me anything else. They just said, I see that you are comfortable in “your religion”. I told them that I do not have a religion but was a sinner saved by GOD’s mercy & grace. They walked away but my prayers have been for them since our brief encounter. It just grieves my heart with ppl who are so deceived in false religious systems. Take care, my brother in CHRIST. JESUS is coming soon enough and will silence all false, lying religious teachers, preachers and systems ( ALL LIARS will have their part in the lake that burns w/fire & brimstone).
Excellent video, Sam Tolley, this scripture is must effective with those new Witnesses.I remember when I was a JW, I was downtown Minneapolis talking to a Christian. He stated a cow begats a cow, a horse begats a horse. The Bible states that Jesus is the only begotten God! I had no rebuttal for that scripture. The Christian just asked me to think about it. Smart Christian, that encounter was the start of me leaving the Witnesses.
Thank you for this. Very helpful. Appreciate very much the fact that you don't want to embarrass them, but to win them into God's kingdom - in and thru Jesus Christ.

I’m not perfect I mess up but Jesus is Perfect He never ever mess up .. I misspelled.. you got my point ... Isaiah 7:14 ..... my question to you again in Colossians 1:3 Which states all things were created by Jesus and for Jesus.... your book says all other things.. again my friend it doesn’t make sense He created all things then there is nothing left to create nothing! I say this again my friend.... if you have a store and I say to you I want to buy everything in your store and what is left over? My friend does that make sense? It’s nothing left over how am I gonna buy something that is not there? That is why I don’t trust your book my friend no offense to you.. also in Hebrews 1:8 your book says God is your throne does that make sense? God is not a Thorne He sits on a Thorne... this is what the Bible says in Hebrews 1:8 The Father is talking to His Son ... Thy Thorne OH God ... that makes sense
Again check out John 8 in your book and John 8 in the king James... yours don’t make sense my friend I say that in a caring way... give verses is gone maybe from your book..... God said don’t add or take away my friend Revelation 22:18
I didn't even know they believed that xD Good thing you're pointing it out. My mom is a Jehova's witness, so I'm gonna show this to her.
Mikki same brother and I’m so worried for her .praying that god will touch both of our mothers hearts
Joshua Efosa thank you, I appreciate that. I will pray for your mother as well.
Let us know how it goes!! :)
Ashish Stanley she’s still a hardcore JW xD only thing that could change it is this plandemic.
Why try and change your mothers belief doesnt it make her happy?
Brother, praise the Lord. Like yourself the Lord through his Holy Spirit has revealed all truth, please continue to be a good and faithful servant no matter what the cost . I'll see you at the catching up of the body of Christ.
Thanks brother!
@@samueltolley brother Samuel I know you're a saved man and a brother in Christ Jesus so I present a challenge. We both know that Roman Catholicism is mystery Babylon and all doctrines that come out of this wicked system are false . Now after studying into the trinitarian doctrine that came out of philosophy one must add and subtract from the written word of God and we both know that's a very sirius sin, my point is this , after studying the Hebrew Godhead doctrine I found in no way does trinitarian doctrine line up with the Hebrew Godhead doctrine " at all " like the jws bible the false trinitarian doctrine promotes a polytheism doctrine so if you're interested in the scriptures that prove Jesus Christ and the Father and Holy Spirit are 1 get back to me asap I will faithfully provide all scripture and I'm convinced through the Holy Spirit you will understand the true Hebrew Godhead doctrine of the bible.
I left the Jehovah witness organization and find Christ !
Amen brother
No you left the Christ and lost the Christ!
You left, but the organisation didn't end. The trash he is talking about.
Asmr.. you was just one of the church goer and when you heard a noise you left because there no truth, no faith spiritually death. TH-cam noise maker against jw.
You should be a Muslim.
Reg Ham
Have you noticed that jw mention their organization (a word not even in the bible) almost as much as the mention Jesus. Or the kingdom.
You need to try out a real church that actually talks about Jesus as much as the gospels do. Be like the earliest Christians.
Truth we talk about Jesus more than you do! And we do the work worldwide that Jesus said his followers would do. Wee love our world organization of brothers and sisters more than you? We are no part of the political party world, Just as Jesus and he said that they are no part of the world.
Thank you. I thought that was clear to all Christians. It's very sad. Oh I like your gentle demeanor.
Why are u questioning other religious group just preach God and his son dont compare your beliefs to other they have their own too..
@@marielcadiz4850 perhaps, like myself, many out there have family still in the JWs. Videos like this help us organize our thoughts when we talk to them.

Or are you under another different arrangement than the Israelites were for forgiveness of sin through faith in Jesus Christ(or did God make a mistake the first time around when he instituted sins law?)... Well that's obviously has changed in the scriptures 🤦.. some fools just should not speak on things they do not understand 🤷
Thank you Samuel. May God always be with you
The core of our belief is a crucified Christ, that died, was buried and rose again in a glorified (flesh and bone animated by the Holy Spirit) body that we too will one day possess. Religions across the world must try and refute this because if Christ did this then He is who He said He is and our faith in Him is justified.
Thank you my brother...I had two ladies here today....I now have scriptures for what God has shown me by His Holy Spirit.....God Bless you...

So at this point they had seen Jesus three times since he had been resurrected and they still did not recognize him our fleshly bodies don't change by the day unless we can materialize new fleshly bodies because he was resurrected in the spiritual form as he said it Matthew 22 because that's the only way you can get everlasting life, because flesh and blood cannot inherit God's Kingdom (1st Corinthians 15:50) but spiritual creatures can materialize fleshly bodies if Jehovah God allows them to and saying to Jesus had the authority well he materialize the fleshly body that's why he was appearing and disappearing and unrecognizable
Acts 26
aThat Christ should suffer, and zthat he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and yshould shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.
Jesus Christ was the first to rise from the dead or to a spiritual life because it's Matthew 22 points out we come back as the Angels do so that's why he was the first to rise actually from the dead and to everlasting life, because Lazarus was also brought back from the dead and brought back into the sinful flesh but he still died in sin and many other people were resurrected in the flesh but they again died and sin
Helpful, thoughtful, and loving approach.
Thank you sir.🙏
Wow thank God for giving His holy spirit to revealed it to you the truth, now i am Going to use this verse to crushed their lies...
Thanks my brother in Christ
If you are in the war for beliefs you are not the real follower. Incase you are so proud of your religion that you cannot see through. Pride is a sin my friend. Just because you have read the book doesn't mean you are right.

Wow! Thank you sir! I recently left the Jehovah's witnesses because of their false doctrines. We were taught that Jesus was resurrected in a spiritual body, which is another thing wrong with their doctrine. I will share this scripture with other JWs. Thanks again!
Christ vanishes in front of everyone, then immediately returns with a new physical body with scars - Luk 24:31-45
Christ, immediately after resurrection (in his new and glorified body), asks for and eats meat - Luke 24:41-43
New resurrected bodies are physical, not just spiritual, including ability to eat food - Luke 24:41-43
We are eventually given whole new physical bodies that replace our current bodies - Phil. 3:21, 1 Cor. 15:35-43
All are physically resurrected from graves, but the good and bad have different destinations - John 5:28-29
We all get physically resurrected prior to judgment - Revelation 20:11-14
People do not believe in resurrection and mock it, but it is real and some believed it before it happened - Acts 17:32
James Mc... Excellent comment!!!
JW's do not believe as Jesus in not killing those of other nations in war, or believe in Santa's Christmas as the day of his birthday, or other pagan proved holidays, but is it safe to say you do believe in murder, war, and paganism? Do you pray in Jesus name as they do.? Also, since you are detailed on 1 piece of uninformed info you "chose" to research, can you do more research on a "Cult", before you identify a Christian based religion as such. When you know the definition behind words you use, it shows you have a bit of intelligence behind what you say. Otherwise, you have no substance in what you say. Here is an idea: try to see good in all as Jesus did, and don't tear down others, even if you were proven wrong before by the witnesses, which is why you went as far as putting videos out.
thank you for your answers, they are very good. People nowadays like to take apart just about everything & criticise peoples religious beliefs. in my opinion a true christian will not judge or criticise others using social media, this is very abusive behaviour & revolting. We're all humans here & not perfect, one person in the same faith may have more experience/knowledge than another-that's the same with anything.. With years of dedication & prayer comes wisdom. If someone came to me & preached I would listen & acknowledge them, Not Argue, walk away & do research on that subject. If the preacher was not able to answer my question I would wait until they returned at a later time to provide answers. All scriptures are inspired & beneficial for teaching. Part of having faith is doing research yourself (meaning all of us). I really appreciate your scriptures provided. I like to hear different peoples opinions because it is very encouraging to dig deeper & find the right answer. You can read a scripture & so easily misinterpret it if you just take it for granted. :) what
@@SuperKimmy71 Do you recall Jesus calling the Pharisees and Saddeuces Vipers (snakes)? Is that seeing the good in all? Jesus died for our sins, so he well knew how much 'good' was in all of us. Our righteousness is as filthy rags. Have you forgotten these scriptures, or do you practice selective reasoning?
Thank you very much! This will certainly help with witnessing with JW’s! May the Lord guide all of us to be a light and a helping hand for those poor, lost and trapped people✝️🙏

The Watchtower Org has only been in existence for a little over 100 years and its already crumbling so Yes Jesus was right again.
Kingdom halls being sold off and congregations being consolidated for lack of members. Real Estate being sold all over the world to pay for the hundreds of millions JWs are losing in court cases for child sexual abuse mishandling. Stephen Lett going on the Broadcasting saying they have more money going out than coming in and petitioning for donations.
Construction projects cancelled. over 30% of Bethelites cancelled after Warwick build.
Doctrine after doctrine being proven lies of men.
Yes, the Watchtower is being overthrown as we speak. Witnesses are in for a HUGE shock when their prophecy of Babylon the Great turns on their own heads which it has already begun...her waters are drying up
@@TimKollat it is the last days... the harvest is coming to an end. of course there are fewer people interested in the truth in the last days. But 20 million people came to Memorial so explain that.
@@lindastrang8703 of those 20 million that showed for memorial only 8 of them are members, and that number is falling. the other 12 million the org says are dead anyways unless they fully commit to the Watchtower. I've heard this several times by elders and C.O's.
I used to go on the memorial invite campaigns and then wonder why all the trash talk afterward of how none of the people that show up are going to survive Armageddon just for showing at memorial.
Why invite people just to gossip about them later?
Anyhow, the whole memorial celebration is completely against Jesus's words.
Next time your at one ask yourself if you feel right that you are made to physically reject the sacrifice of Jesus in front of all to see, all because you are told that this is what you are to do all from a totally false watchtower doctrine of the 2 classes of christian

@@stevenperea8192 No, you are not true Christians. You are false prophets and you pervert the Word of God.
@Mark R That is not what the Trinity Doctrine teaches. There are no "3 god's". And if you're going to bring up that you think the trinity is pagan because other cultures have three gods, that is false because the "3 pagan gods" you are taking about are not in any sense related or connected. They are just three random gods that you pick.
Every single time a JW starts talking about the Trinity, I discover that they have no idea what they're talking about because they don't even know what the doctrine teaches. Do some research for once.
There is biblical proof that God has composite unity.
There is only one God (Deut 6:4, Isa 44:8). the Hebrew word for ‘one’ is echad which almost all of the time means composite unity. It is used in Gen 2:24 where the husband and wife become ‘one flesh’. Absolute numerical unity is the Hebrew word 'yachid', but it is never used of God in the Scripture.
Christians are well aware that JW's changed their Bible to fit their theology. They translate John 1:1 as "a god", however, they fail to translate "theos" without the definite article as the same in other places. Even in John 1 there are other instances where "theos" doesn't have the article, yet they translate it as "God". They translate "created all things" in reference to Jesus to "created all other things", when the word 'other' is not present in the Greek. They translate "worship" in reference to Jesus as "doing obeisance to", yet they translate the same Greek word as "worship" in reference to Peter, the angels, and God.
Thanks for your testimony. I recently started having an encounter with JW's, I started meeting up with them on Zoom meetings during the Covid lockdown and I couldn't find anything wrong from what they said and how they worshipped and conveyed the message. Then some time later they handed me a booklet from which we started doing studies from it, some things triggered me in the back of my mind when I talked about the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, the God trinity and that they are three persons in one which they seemed to shy away from and said that we will eventually get to that later in the booklet. Also the fact that they insist on calling God, Jehova bothered me, for no where in the Bible is the name Jehova even mentioned, so I did a bit of research as to where they get the name Jehova from until I realized it's from the four letter word or acronym JHWH, but since I've already began my own Bible studies and followed a few online Pastors for nearly two years before the time already, I knew that the letter "J" didn't exist in ancient Hebrew, the closest to that would be the letter "Y" which existed in ancient Hebrew, so this already questioned the name Jehova, besides this and also because they shy'd away from the God trinity was enough for me to begin researching the history and authenticity of the JW's where I then found out the truth about them and was shocked and disappointed, even disgusted in them whence I heard what they think about Jesus Christ (Yeshua in Hebrew), that they make Him out to be Michael the archangel, that they don't believe in a cross, but in a stake, just a wooden stake on which He was crucified and so many more things which I rebuked. My heart sunk thinking why would God allow me to be involved with this false belief when He knew I was searching Him already for some time through other means just to fall into this trap, called JW's... Then I realized, maybe God put me through this so that I can try to save a few from JW's, but how can I when I'm still not saved myself, I haven't been baptised yet, I've repented yes, but still not saved and there's nothing I can do to be saved unless by the Grace of God. I'm still in contact with these JW's, they don't know what I now know about them and although I don't want to participate in any further studies with them, I'm not sure if I should try and stay as a hidden agent for God and continue the journey with them and try to convert some of them over time back to the real truth in who and what Jesus really is, but how can I do this, is this even possible. I need help and advise!
Cryptix AI First off, you do not need to be baptized to be saved. Baptism is a outward public identification with Christ. All you have to do is to repent of your sins, acknowledge that Jesus or if you like, Yeshua is the Christ, God the Son, and Lord of your life as stated not Romans 9:9-10. That’s it. You should quit studying with JW’s and find a Bible believing and teaching church. After you have grown biblically, witnessing to JW’s is your calling, God will reveal it to you. May the Lord Jesus bless you and keep you as you grow closer to him.
Do get baptized when possible 😀
@@samueltolley Excellent, thank you for this.
Cryptix Al
Cryptix Al my advice is go to encyclopedias go to the internet do this research for yourself you will see the Witnesses are telling the truth
If the letter y doesn't translate to the letter j then every word in the Old testament that begins with j as you're saying should be removed don't believe this stuff that you're told especially from this Samuel person he has no idea what the scripture say again steady for yourself do research for yourself test all things to see if they're from God that's what the scripture say so do your own research don't listen to me or anyone else find it out for yourself and you will see the witness are speaking the truth
1 Peter 3:18-22 18~For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit.

@Janine Cruz The bible and the book of mormon contradicts proven arceological facts. Sorry.

Goatlike personality....I dont understand why you are referencing the Book of Mormon?
Janine Estrada...Please allow me to tell you why I "turned away from" the JW's. I actually and finally did my own research when the internet first came out. What I found out, about the founder CT Russell and his successor "Judge" Rutherford shocked me. If the foundation is not good, then what is built upon it will also be not good. I was baptised "in the name of the Father, Son and God's holy spirit directed Organisation". Not biblical. You yourself know that you are not allowed to ask questions of any JW theology. (Which btw changes "tack" often). Truth does not get brighter. Truth is truth, It does not flip-flop like many of the JW doctrines. You know I am telling you straight. Leave that cult (yes it's a cult) and pray to God to show you the correct path. May He bless you and help you on your way. Jesus IS the way, the truth and the life, and He has all authority given Him by the Father. Jesus is the only name under heaven by which we can be saved. Get a King James bible and start reading. Dump that corrupt NWT.
Hahahahhahahahahah all the best when Jehovah’s day comes. Whose gonna have your back then? Not with ajehovah, then your against and I would hate to be on that side
I am a Christian Born Again. I believe...I believe...Jesus The Son Of God. And Yes I believe he has risen. Amen
Why do you believe?
*HERE'S A PROBLEM THEY CAN'T ANSWER AND IT'S A BIG PROBLEM*
- To believe that the church became corrupted after the death of the last apostle ( and believe a man 1850 years later)
- But trust late 4th century Catholic bishops 300 years later to even know what books belong in the New World Translation bible. The Watchtower uses the very same 27 books, no more, no less, out of some 300+ early Christian writings as first decided as scripture by these late 4th c Bishops.
*They were all Trinitarians* and brought the book into Church where it was read at Mass which they presided over.
The Watchtower - led by 8 fallible men who are not inspired - reject the Church on the latter but trust it on the former. This makes the promise of Jesus Christ one he couldn't keep. He was undependable and a liar.
_When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into ALL the truth;_ Jn 16
Very good points
Cool defamation.
I thought Jesus said it was finished??/
@@garythorington1600 What do you believe the IT was?
John 2.18-22 - To answer your question as a Yahwehist - it is clear from scripture that Jesus was resurrected in the same body in which he died. He rose from the dead and then preached and encouraged his disciples for 40 days before his ascension back to heaven, from where he originated - John chapter 6. Jesus then took up his position beside Yahweh, not to usurp Yahweh, but to remain in subordination to Yahweh.
I went to the bank and paid off the loan. Then turn around and say: "I paid it off haven't I. Now can I have it back."
Jesus couldn't take back what he had sacrificed to God.
Peter contrasts Jesus' death as a human with his resurrection back as an angel (1 Peter 3:18).
Top Ten Things Wrong with Jehovah’s Witnesses
1. Christ Jesus is not their mediator but the governing body/organization is. (Compare 1 Timothy 2:5Open in Logos Bible Software (if available))
2. They accept the organization as Gods sole “channel” of truth not relying on Holy Spirit themselves. (Compare John 14:16Open in Logos Bible Software (if available),17Open in Logos Bible Software (if available))
3. They believe the Watchtower contains Gods truth, directed by Holy Spirit. Without it, one cannot understand the Bible. (Compare John 14:6Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) and 1 John 2:27Open in Logos Bible Software (if available))
4. They claim to be Christian but the vast majority reject Christ Blood and flesh and they do this in a ritualistic fashion every memorial of Christ death by passing the bread and wine among themselves and not eating it. Even the speaker must touch the plate or the cup and reject it for all to see. (Compare John 6:53Open in Logos Bible Software (if available))
5. They use the name Jehovah over Yahweh but will agree Yahweh is more accurate. (Compare Romans 10:2Open in Logos Bible Software (if available),3Open in Logos Bible Software (if available))
6. They demand 100% unity at all cost and will disfellowship members if they disagree with any doctrine. (Compare Jude 22Open in Logos Bible Software (if available))
7. They claim they were approved and chosen by Christ Jesus in 1918 to do Gods will. However, their teachings at the time and mistakes since then prove this could not be true. (Compare Matthew 24:4Open in Logos Bible Software (if available),11Open in Logos Bible Software (if available),23-27Open in Logos Bible Software (if available))
8. They let their loved ones die imposing their doctrinal ban on blood transfusions based on the law covenant. However, people broke the law covenant when lives were at stake. Such as saving a life of a sheep or human on the Sabbath. King David broke the law to save his men. (Compare John 5:17-18Open in Logos Bible Software (if available), Mark 2:25-28Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) and Mark 7:15Open in Logos Bible Software (if available))
9. They have ruined thousands of peoples lives by disfellowshipping members without “saying a greeting” to them. Misapplying 2 John 10Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) that says not to greet the Antichrist. This they started in 1952 in order to control their members.
(Compare 2 Thess. 3:14Open in Logos Bible Software (if available), 15Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) and 1 Thess. 5:14Open in Logos Bible Software (if available))
10. They are known for being false prophets for their many false predictions going back over 150 years. They predicted the end would come in 1914, 1975 and the generation alive in 1914 would not die off before the end. Of course, time has ran out on their “generation” understanding so this they have changed. ( Compare Matthew 24:11Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) and Matthew 23:15Open in Logos Bible Software (if available))
If you are a Jehovah’s Witness we would like to recommend that you ask God for his Holy Spirit to guide you. Please do not close your eyes to important facts you can find freely on the internet today about Jehovah’s Witnesses. The truth has nothing to fear. Maybe you became a JW years before these facts were accessible like they are today online. The prophet Daniel was told that many would “rove about” (Daniel 12:4Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)) looking for knowledge at the time of the end. Do you “rove ” or do you put your head in the sand when it comes to examining your own religion? We encourage you to look online and ask questions. This was written by a former Jehovah Witness. (Please read John 14:6Open in Logos Bible Software (if available))

Yes. Who will raise this body? He will raise the Temple. Christ Himself raised the temple of His body. Something a Jehovah's Witness refuses to see. Thankyou for your ministry Sam Tolley.
The immortal words in response to the Jehovah's Witness like Pharisees. " I was blind yet now I see" I do hope that most Jehovah's Witnesses are in fact blind because if not?
Most religions say they believe in Jesus and to follow him, but when you look closer there are a lot of other additions that are not of God nor in the bible. Thank you for speaking the truth. If you believe the bible to be true and Gods word and you read it. You will see that the bible does tell us Jesus was resurrected bodily with many witnesses. It is stated In all four gospels as well as other paces in the bible, Math 28, Mark16, Luke 24, John 20, 1Cor 15. There were many witnesses who saw him alive in the flesh, he even ate with them after his resurrection. If you are truly following the bible then how can you deny it. Keep speaking the truth brother and I encourage everyone out there to keep seeking the truth you will find it.
Debra. Well spoken. The resurrection truly matters. Scripture teaches: "If Christ did NOT rise, your faith if futile, you are yet in your sins". JW's do not believe He rose, they follow the WT Corp. teaching that he was recreated from Jehovah's memory. This is not resurrection however, it is the creation of a clone of the original.
Jehovah's Witnesses are the true worshippers and the ones in John 4:23
Jehovah's witnesses answered your question correctly. Jesus was not resurrected in his physical body. He was resurrected in his spiritual body. Jesus did not lie its you who are lying. The temple is the place where the holy spirit is present. Where the Holy spirit can be present? Everywhere. It's not necessarily a physical body. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 "Do you not know that your body is the temple of the holy spirit within you, which you have from God? Also, you do not belong to yourselves, for you were bought with a price.By all means, glorify God in your body." The temple can also be a building not to mention about the heavenly temple. --- You stumbled over little things while good news is so big and beautiful. Ask for holy spirit with humbleness and the truth will be opened to you. The Good news is very beautiful and Jehovah God and his son are very loving and merciful
Good Sense,
Referring to the passage in Luke 24:36-43.
Jesus challenges the apostles about whether a spirit has flesh and bones as our resurrected Jesus had flesh and bones standing before them.
That statement alone, both reasonably and logically, states that Jesus was not a spirit being, but a man in flesh and bones.
Shalom!
you do know it says that when you commit physical sexual immorality you defile your temple to God aka your body?
Good Sense JW does not believe the Spirit is omniscient. Core doctrine
Ronald Macafee mother ship with 1500 bombers? Id like to know more please
Good Sense " Jehovah's witnesses answered your question correctly. Jesus was not resurrected in his physical body. " What you have said is nonsense!
Jesus rose from the dead in the very same physical body in which He died. This resurrected, physical body was a glorified, spiritual body. The spiritual body is not merely "spirit." The spiritual body is the resurrected, glorified, physical body. After the resurrection, Jesus was able to eat (Luke 24:42-43). He showed people His hands and feet with the nail prints in them (Luke 24:39; John 20:27), and people even grabbed His feet and worshipped Him (Matt. 28:9). As the reports of Jesus' resurrection were spreading, Thomas, who was doubting the resurrection of Christ, said, "Unless I shall see in His hands the imprint of the nails, and put my finger into the place of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe." (John 20:25). Later, Jesus appeared to Thomas and said to him, "Reach here your finger, and see My hands; and reach here your hand, and put it into My side; and be not unbelieving, but believing." (John 20:27).
If Jesus' body had not risen, then He would not have feet and hands with the same holes of the nails of the crucifixion. Consider the following verses as further proof that His very body was raised:
"When therefore it was evening, on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst, and said to them, "Peace be with you." 20 And when He had said this, He showed them both His hands and His side. The disciples therefore rejoiced when they saw the Lord." (John 20:19-20).
"And He said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39 "See My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself; touch Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.
Awesome lesson! Love it. Thank you Samuel. God bless you.
I'm not a JEHOVAH witness but, Jesus was not resurrected in the flesh or that would make Jesus Christ a liar because he says in the resurrection we come back as the Angels do and the angels are spiritual creatures spiritual creatures are invisible,
Matthew 22
Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, snot knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but tare as the angels of God in heaven. 31 But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, 32 I uam the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living. 33 And when the multitude heard this, they vwere astonished at his doctrine
Also since Jesus was only dead like 3 days why was it that they could not recognize Jesus he should have the same face right they had a conversation with them and they still didn't recognize him until he broke bread did they recognize him actually and this was the first time they had seen them since he had been put to death, when Lazarus was resurrected they recognized him when he came out of the memorial tombs
Luke 24
And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, kJesus himself drew near, and went with them. 16 But ltheir eyes were holden that they should not know him.
Luke 24
And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. 31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.
Now notice how once Jesus broke bread their eyes were open and then right after that day he vanished out of their sight, not run or hide(like he was doing before he was killed or Resurrected) out of their sight he vanished or disappeared out of their sight, freshly humans cannot do this..
John 21
But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples cknew not that it was Jesus.
John 21
Jesus saith unto them, iCome and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord. 13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise. 14 This is now jthe third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.
John 21
Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and the same with the fish. 14 This was now the third time that Jesus appeared to the disciples after being raised up from the dead.
So at this point they had seen Jesus three times since he had been resurrected and they still did not recognize him our fleshly bodies don't change by the day unless we can materialize new fleshly bodies because he was resurrected in the spiritual form as he said it Matthew 22 because that's the only way you can get everlasting life, because flesh and blood cannot inherit God's Kingdom (1st Corinthians 15:50) but spiritual creatures can materialize fleshly bodies if Jehovah God allows them to and saying to Jesus had the authority well he materialize the fleshly body that's why he was appearing and disappearing and unrecognizable
Acts 26
aThat Christ should suffer, and zthat he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and yshould shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.
Jesus Christ was the first to rise from the dead or to a spiritual life because it's Matthew 22 points out we come back as the Angels do so that's why he was the first to rise actually from the dead and to everlasting life, because Lazarus was also brought back from the dead and brought back into the sinful flesh but he still died in sin and many other people were resurrected in the flesh but they again died and sin
I had the JW's come knocking on my door, as usual there were two of them, I told them I believed in the God, Jesus, Holy Spirit. and the Bible. I told them I believed in the Trinity, which they deny , How can three persons be the same, well take a block of ICE place it in a red hot frying pan, then ask them ,--Is it ICE, WATER, STEAM, or is it all three. I then quoted Matthew 18:20 King James Version (KJV) 20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. I then told them that Jesus was here with us and also God, after all God is Omnipotent, Omnipresent, they left in a hurry before I could tell them that ' On the 23rd of November 1988 at 11.45pm I knelt at the side of my bed and asked for God's forgiveness,,, and that was when I WAS BORN AGAIN. Psalm 116..
Rodger Smith I thought I was the only one that instantly understood the Trinity by the water composition: liquid (God The Father), ice (Jesus), gas (Holy Spirit) all molecularly water (the same essence/element) but in different forms with different functions.

1-John 20:27-Jesus showed Thomas who said 'unless I see the nail marks ..' so Jesus showed His nail marked hands & said 'O ye of little faith..how much better for those who believe without seeing'. & 2-Romans 8:11-speaks of the same Spirit that was in Christ that raised Him from the dead is in us. who have been born again.
I know there are many more as well.
I've never heard this story of manufacturing bodies by Jesus. I've had many discussions with witnesses. All the witnesses I have ever talked to believe that he was resurrected. The only thing they don't believe is that Jesus is god. Because he isn't God, he is the son of God. Witnesses are Unitarian. They don't believe in the man made up trinity.
Hi Tim Smith ✋i have a question. Do you believe Jesus is literally God's son ?
Tim Smith - The Scriptures say Jestis God and Jesus Himself said He is God, and I know you area not smarter than Jesus, and that you a lying sinner. So, who should we believe you or Jesus.
John Dear wow! What a big christian you are. You must be Jesus to judge me a sinner yet know nothing about me.
Drew 91 yes I literally believe he is the son of God. As he is Gods first creation
Tim Smith,
Are you sure the trinity is "man made..."?
You are commanded by Jesus Christ to baptize in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Without any predisposition doesn't the question come to mind, 'why did Jesus command us to do that?'
I would suggest to you that both the unity and diversity of God is communicated to all of us in God's word from cover to cover, and very clearly at creation:
Gen 1:26 Then God said, "Let US make man in OUR image, in OUR likeness..."
I submit for your consideration:
If God had intended mankind to worship a Unitarian God, God would have spoken the words in Gen 1:26 as 'Let ME make man in MY image, in MY likeness...'
The trinity is tri-unity, just like water has three forms but is still water:
liquid - water in liquid form
ice - water in a solid form
steam - water in a gaseous form
I suspect you accept this fact about water in our reality.
Shalom!

Awsome video thanks for sharing this information they are nice people but HARD to share the word of God with. it's almost like they have blinders on Ephesians 1:18 says The eyes of your understanding being enlightened. Praying🙏 they open there understanding before it's to late.

Welcome, James.
For the truth's sake.
Unbelievable! You gave Scripture and some still don’t believe...... the Bible says the truth will set you free... you keep putting it out there Brother no one is made but the enemy who cares is if he is made? I don’t for all u haters , if God is for us and He will is who can be against I’m not gonna put a question mark , no one can be against us .... God Bless you my friend! Keep going
Derek Burris don’t sound so surprised...every so called Christian church believes something different...Baptist don’t believe what Methodists believe don’t believe what Catholic’s believe don’t believe what Pentecostals believe.......you get the point!!!
Hello John Smelt. All the denominations of "Christendom" believe the same fundamental doctrines. Where they differ are the ancillary practises each prefers and their hierarchical structure, etc. Some are liturgical, others not at all. Some have communion weekly, others monthly, while others are four times a year. Some sing traditional hymns and others sing modern praise songs with amplified musical instruments, etc.
The fundamental beliefs as contained in the "Apostles Creed" for example are common among all. JW's, Scientology, Mormons, Universalism, Christadelphians, etc. are not a part of "Christendom". They are their own particular sects/cults with their own peculiar beliefs each based on twisting the scriptures to fit their particular preconceived beliefs. The WT Corp. for example has even gone so far to rewrite and publish their own "bible" to change as well as insert words to support their preconceived doctrines. Thx. for sharing. J.
John C. Is that why a Catholic cannot marry a non Catholic? Because they see other Christians as similar to themselves? Read the Young’s Literal Translation Bible, American Standard Bible, World English Bible, Divine Name King James Bible...they are all exactly the same as the New World Translation. I use them all interchangeably. Mainstream Christendom has taken Gods unique name out of their Bible. THATS a serious serious serious problem.
Hello again John Smelt. I just noticed another change from Greek to the NWT rendering in 1Cor.6:19 when answering edM3E in his thread above. The NWT has spuriously added the word "people' into this verse. It is NOT in the original Greek as observed in the WT Corp. "K.I.T. Greek Interlinear". You may say "so what?" But the addition of this one word has changed the meaning of the passage.
John C. I think you have the wrong Bible. This is what the NWT says 1 Corinthians 6:19 (nwt-E) - Do you not know that your body is the temple of the holy spirit within you, which you have from God? Also, you do not belong to yourselves,’. There is no ‘people’....
I don't subscribe to any denomination so I don't have a dog in this fight but what he is saying about jehova witness isn't altogether true. I just spoke to one yesterday in fact and she wholly believe in the resurrection and all that. None of what you say they believe is what we talked about. So who is making up stuff?
they the non jws…….there is just enough truth to say they are may be 50 to 60 %inaccurate ,because they have not thought it thru.....
They believe in a resurrection but not the bodily resurrection of Jesus. They teach a different Gospel and a different Jesus.
Veronica Ureña they believe he was resurrected 3 days later in his physical body. What are you talking about
Dictionary definition of hypocrisy- Jehova’s witness
Another question they CANNOT answer, is WHERE in the Bible does GOD say, MY NAME is Jehovah? They cant answer, they say, but his name is Jehovah.I tell them, WHERE does it say that? YHWY comes from the Unpronouncable name of God, but in the BIBLE ..WHERE does God say, "MY NAME IS JEHOVAH?? They never answer the question..they dance around it...so I say, "When MOSES went up to Mt.Sinai..and saw the burning bush...and Moses said, "Lord, who shall I say SENT ME?" What did the Lord say?...not, " Hey dude my name is Jehovah"...NO! The Lord said, "I AM, Tell them I AM sent you!"..The Jehovahs witnesses always look at me when I quote this scripture and panic and say, "BUT HIS NAME is JEHOVAH!"...I always say, SHOW ME WHERE in the BIBLE where GOD comes straight out and tells us HIS name? They cant...I had a Jehovah Witness create a whole speech on WHY Gods name is SO important, and his name is Jehovah. I told her, You are so focused on his name and you are missing out on WHO HE truly is...
Psalms 83:18 they will tell you that if you ask.
Pablo..are you a Christian?Why are you being rude? In my Bible ,it says, "The Lord", not Jehovah, and you misunderstood me. I said, Where in the Bible does GOD come flat out and tell us HIS name? ONLY to Moses, at the burning bush, when Moses asked, WHO shall I say sent me?, And the Lord replied, "I AM, TELL THEM THE GREAT I AM sent you".I know Jehovah is a derivative of Yahweh, which came from YHWH. In Hebrew it is the UNPROUNCABLE name of GOD, Its not Jehovah. Thats a derivative. Here..read this......
The term “Jehovah,” appearing in the American Standard Version (1901), takes the place of “LORD” (all caps) in the King James Translation, as well as in most modern versions.
It derives from four Hebrew consonants, called the Tetragrammaton, a term that signifies a four-letter word. This expression is used by scholars for the four Hebrew letters, YHWH, that constitute a name for God employed some 6,800 times in the Old Testament. (Note: “Jehovah” is found in the King James Version in Exodus 6:3, Psalm 83:18, and Isaiah 12:2 and 26:4.)
I am not sure of the motive of the KJV translators four hundred years ago (or of later versions, e.g., RSV, NIV, ESV) in rendering YHWH by “LORD,” in contrast to “Lord.” “Lord,” a rendition of the Hebrew term adonai was used as a title for deity (some 442 times). Perhaps the all-caps format was to accommodate the late-first-century Jewish superstition against pronouncing the sacred covenant name of God (Ex. 6:3; cf. 3:14).
Admittedly, the name Jehovah is a hybrid term (i.e., vowels from adonai were imported into the four Hebrew consonants). The same procedure is employed in the construction of Yahweh, a term commonly used today in scholarly literature as a substitute for “Jehovah.”
Though “Jehovah” may not approximate the original term quite as closely as Yahweh, the expression “Jehovah” has “now acquired by usage independent standing in English” (Ferm 1945, 389) and certainly is more familiar to the common reader than is Yahweh. Criticism of the use of the name Jehovah is unwarranted.
Numerous scholars have noted that the original word’s exact pronunciation has been lost and the various spelling forms are speculations, e.g., “Jehovah, Yehovah, Jahweh, Yahweh” (Unger and White 1980, 229). All of these forms are conjectural transliterations. There is no solid documentation to confirm the original vocalization of YHWH (Horn 1960, 1161). Dogmatism, therefore, is without justification.
It is difficult to appreciate the rationale of the somewhat caustic critics who virtually rail against the name Jehovah, when no one knows precisely how the original term was pronounced. Moreover, why has there been no swelling enthusiasm by translators for incorporating Yahweh, as an anglicized term, into the texts of our modern Old Testament versions?
Finally, why camouflage the difference between Yahweh and adonai by a subtle change in the English capitalization, when the average Bible student has no clue under the sun as to what lies behind the type style alteration from “Lord” to “LORD” (KJV, RSV, NIV, etc.)?
You still dont understand what I wrote.......and yes, in the KJV in Isaiah, it does say that, I'm aware of that. You're not understanding me...I'm speaking of the name, JEHOVAH directly, read your history of Biblical translations.It will help you.
I understand what your saying, I'm not superstitious, again I was just referencing the basis for the name Jehovah. God is Holy, and I dont know his name,but thats ok.ALL I'm saying is that I'm not going to say...HIS NAME is...this or that.....because thats not for me to do.

Proverbs 3:5 "....do not rely on your own understanding..."
Acts 2:23 "Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was not abandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see decay."
Watchtower (I believe in the reasoning book) says Jesus' body desolved or decomposed of natural gases. This prophecy shows that teaching is a lie.
That is Acts 2:31
🎺🎺MY KINGDOM MINISTRY FOR MY GOD JEHOVAH AND JESUS CHRIST🎺🎺
I know Jehovah witnesses have been taught a lie that heaven is meant for a 144,000 people... but the only place that there's a specific number mentioned of those who go to heaven is in Revelation and it gives a number of 144000 to go to heaven for specific purpose to be Kings and priests for a 1000 years(but notice 1st Corinthians comes before revelation we read the Bible from front to back not Back to front)...
JW's have been taught 1st Corinthians is only addressed to the 144,000(or the annointed) but notice in 1st Corinthians 1 who Paul is directing this letter to
1st Corinthians 1:2
to the congregation of God that is in Corinth, to you who have been sanctified in union with Christ Jesus, called to be holy ones, together with all those everywhere who are calling on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ..(we know the holy ones are the annoited but he also added in, "together with all those everywhere who are calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ" so this is for everybody who calls on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, this is who this letter is addressed to

1st Corinthians 15:44
It is sown a physical body; it is raised up a spiritual body. If there is a physical body, there is also a spiritual one(the scripture says if there is a physical body there is a spiritual one that is a definite)
1st Corinthians 15
However, what is spiritual is not first. What is physical is first, and afterward what is spiritual. 47 The first man is from the earth and made of dust; the second man is from heaven(it says that our first life is from the earth, our second life is from heaven, although we will still inherit the Earth because the Bible says that but just like Jesus could transfigure a spiritual body on the mountain, as a perfect person, showing us that it can be done as a perfect person, we will also be able to form a spiritual body once we have perfected our physical bodies...have you ever thought about what the tree of life was supposed to do for Adam and Eve? We could have lived forever without ever eating from the tree of Life. Jehovah God said the only reason why Adam and eve died is because they ate from the tree of knowledge (what was the tree of life supposed to accomplish?)
JEHOVAH tells us:
Genesis 3:22
Jehovah God then said: “Here the man has become like one of us in knowing good and bad. Now in order that he may not put his hand out and take fruit also from the tree of life and eat and live forever(THE REAL LIFE is ACTUALLY the SPIRITUAL LIFE, that's how we become TRULY ALIVE)

1Corinthians 15
And just as we have borne the image of the one made of dust, we will bear also the image of the heavenly one. 50 But I tell you this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit God’s Kingdom,(now remember we're supposed to inherit God's kingdom but the Bible says FLESH AND BLOOD CAN NOT INHERIT GOD'S KINGDOM so that right there tells you you're going to get a spiritual body in order to inherit God's Kingdom (because we know Jehovah can't lie(Titus1:2) because there will be more trees of life in the recreation(Mt 19:28; Re 22:14)
Skip ahead to Revelation now..
Revelation 7
After this I saw, and look! a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes; and there were palm branches in their hands. 10 And they keep shouting with a loud voice, saying: “Salvation we owe to our God, who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb.(remember when Jesus transfigured himself on the mountain he was in a "white robe"(we know a lot of Revelation is symbolic)
Revelation 7:14
These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and THEY HAVE WASHED THEIR ROBES and MADE THEM WHITE in the blood of the Lamb(KEEP THIS SCRIPTURE IN MIND)
Revelation 21:10
So he carried me away in the power of the spirit to a great and lofty mountain, and he showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God...It had a great and lofty wall and had 12 gates with 12 angels at the gates, and on the gates were inscribed the names of the 12 tribes of the sons of Israel. 13 On the east were three gates, and on the north three gates, and on the south three gates, and on the west three gates.(notice where the city and the gates are, they are in heaven, actually earth is just supposed to be God's garden, the city is in heaven)
Revelation 22:14
Happy are those who wash their robes, so that they may have authority to go to the trees of life and that they may gain entrance into the city through its gates..( notice Who gains access to the city (heaven) and it's gates(the entrance to heaven), THOSE WHO WASHED THEIR ROBES.(Re 7:14) We know those who did that came out of the great tribulation. During one of the drama movies in the assembly(Summer of 2020 Friday session) she pointed out to her student(Jade, Like Jaded) that there is no hunger, death, or pain in heaven...but we know Jesus actually hungered, felt pain and could be killed on Earth and he was perfect flesh and blood, so in order for the people on the Earth to be able to not hunger or die we would have to obtain spiritual bodies because only in heaven do they not hunger die or feel pain... Jesus was are roadmap, he was born, he was baptized, he died, but then he came back as spiritual creature and made himself known or let himself be seen to those he wanted... because also remember Jesus says in the resurrection we are as Angels (Angels are spiritual creatures)
Matthew 22
In reply Jesus said to them: “You are mistaken, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God; 30 for in the resurrection neither do men marry nor are women given in marriage, but they are as angels in heaven Regarding the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, who said: 32 ‘I am the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob’? He is the God, not of the dead, but of the living( You know Jesus can't lie and faithful servants of Jehovah and followers of Jesus Christ are supposed to be resurrected if we die, just as Jesus came back as the Angels are(in the spiritual form) after he was put to death, all baptized Christians will come back as the Angels are and if they are not baptized they'll be resurrected after the 1000 years had ended because the Bible also says in Revelation that not everybody's gets resurrected during the first resurrection, there are some that come to life after the thousand years where ended
Revelation 20
And they came to life and ruled as kings with the Christ for 1,000 years. 5 (THE REST OF THE DEAD DID NOT COME TO LIFE UNTIL THE 1,000 YEARS WERE ENDED.)
Matthew 5:8
Happy are the pure in heart, since they will see God.(Jesus already told us servants of Jehovah will actually see God and Jesus can't lie just like Jehovah can't tell a lie and the Bible is God's word)
❤️❤️Galatians 5 On the other hand, the fruitage of the spirit is LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITH, 23 MILDNESS, SELF-CONTROL. Against such things there is NO LAW❤️❤️

Every eye shall see him again EVERY EYE SHALL SEE HIM JESUS OUR KING
@VideoAudioDisco09 before THIS generation that sees all these things. You obviously didn't read the entire verse. He didn't mean HIS generation, but the generation that saw all the things He talked about. Many would consider the reclaiming of Israel in 1967 would be the start of that generation. Those people today are just about in their 50's now. A generation as described in the bible can be 80 years or even 100.
I wouldn't be in such a hurry to have Jesus return anyway, you don't seem prepared for the Great Tribulation when things will be way worse than some low key pandemic.
@VideoAudioDisco09 once again, the generation He is talking about is when ALL THESE THINGS have happened. All these things did not happen until Israel reclaimed their land in 1967. the generation that begins is the one that sees ALL THESE THING happen. Those in first century Judea did not see ALL THESE THIINGS happen.
If you don't take the time to study the words, but just feel like some sort of "Gotcha" then you won't be happy to discover that you didn't understand the text well enough to be able to do a "I told you so".
There are secular books and documents that talk about Jesus, so to claim that Jesus never existed is just lazy research on your part.
Just ignoring the truth about the Bible won't make it go away.
@VideoAudioDisco09 I actually own the booklet "88 Reasons Why" which I keep hoping it might be worth something someday. Maybe an eBay item. As for the "Roman destruction of the temple is the Abomination of desolation" is not the correct definition. It is clear that it represents when Satan/Anti-Christ is standing in the Temple. Last I was aware, no person of Satan/Anti-Christ has been on earth let alone standing in the temple. That hasn't happened yet.
When you do dig deeper, it become more interesting and causes people to watch the news a lot more with interest in the nation of Israel.
As for the guesses out there, we have organizational cults like JW's that have made so many errors such as the 1975 fiasco where people literally sold their homes, quit their jobs, spent their savings and left family and friends. That seems like it is way worse than Harold Camping making guesses that make him look like a fool when it doesn't work out.
@VideoAudioDisco09 I remember reading the 88 reasons book when I was much younger but still thinking ... yeah, probably not. In 88 I was only 16 years old and didn't really know that much about the BIble at that time. I still wasn't thinking about giving up on my dreams or ideas of the future. It wasn't very real to me then, but an obvious concern.
I was more concerned about Sept 23, 2017, and the "Revelation 12" sign that seemed very biblical to me. I remember seeing Jupiter hovering in the sign of Virgo and fitting the description of Revelation 12 so clearly as explained by Scottie Clarke with so much biblical detail. I was convinced that it was real. I really started to doubt so much after that date came and went like all the others, because this one was based on the Bible, or so I thought.
Matthew 24 (Olivet Discourse) says there will be a literal world leader(antichrist) who is able to establish a peace treaty in the Middle East between Israel and her
neighbors for 7 years (Dan. 9:24-27). In the middle of the 7 years he walks into the temple in Jerusalem, takes away the sacrifices (Dan. 12:11), and declares himself to be God (Dan. 9:27; 11:31; Matt. 24:15; Mark 13:14; 2 Thess. 2:3-4). He forces everybody to worship him (2 Thess. 2:4; Rev. 13:15) and requires them to have a mark in order to buy or sell anything anywhere in the world (Rev. 13:16)
Matthew 24 helps us see that Jesus’ taught the above scenario too. Jesus mentions all of the following: the existence of the nation of Israel, the temple in Jerusalem, the antichrist, tribulation, the second coming (and possibly rapture).
The following are general signs of his second coming:
• Deception (v. 4)
• False messiahs (v. 4)
• Great wars (nation vs. nation) (v. 6,7)
• Famines (v. 7)
• Diseases & pestilences (v. 7)
• Earthquakes (v.7)
• Tribulation, persecution and martyrdom for believers (v. 9-10)
• False prophets & apostasy (v. 11)
• Lack of morality & love (v. 12)
• Preaching of Gospel
The first view is that Jesus is not saying these are specific signs only of the end times, but a general description of the entire church age.
It’s as if he’s saying, “Don’t let these things alarm you. They will continue to happen right up until the end!”
If we understand the context, Jesus is not suggesting this is all "imminent" as to happen with a decade or so. Even with modern-day technology to record earthquakes, we have still not seen a huge increase in earthquakes. People have become colder to each other and religion, and COVID-19 along with SARS, MERS, Ebola, H1N1, Zika, swine flu, etc. has been an interesting sign of pestilences.
The argument is that the generation which sees Israel come back to life will not pass away until the tribulation and occurs. Israel became a nation again on May 14, 1948.
• Nation of Israel became a nation again in 1948.
• A generation in the Bible is 100 years (Genesis 15:13-16: "Know certainly that your descendants will be strangers in a land that is not theirs and will serve them, and they will afflict them four hundred years... But in the fourth generation they shall return here...")
• 1948+100 = 2048
• Subtract 7 years for Tribulation
• 2048 - 7 = rapture in *2041* (right around the time of estimated singularity!)
Is the year 2041 correct??? Who knows. It's a guess. But I'm not going to sell my home in 2040. I'll be retired by that time, so probably not too worried about it anyway.
@VideoAudioDisco09 the problem with Nostrandamus, is his record of accuracy is extremely low single digit. The Bible hits above 50% with a huge portion not resolved yet for future (book of Revelation).
I wouldn't label men's date/year setting as a fault of the Bible but man's own ignorance. Our inherent desire to know the answer to think like God while the Bible tells us it can't be known. We seek out those patterns in the Bible hoping to solve the Riddle but without the mind of God, who could decipher the complex structure.
Cults have a way of using human expectations to trick others into accepting what "appears" to be right. Those without discerning capabilities will accept these half truths. Sadly, too many get caught up in the day to day lifestyle.
Even govt uses propoganda to control people, make them do things that don't make sense. How else can you justify "Duck n Cover" to people in the 50s that thought that would work. With modern movies alone, no one today would buy that malarkey.
Well Said Samuel! You are correct about Jesus saying he would "Raise up This Temple" in three days ( his body). He had "Doubting Thomas" put his hand into the wound in his side to prove it.
LET THE BIBLE ANSWER YOU not JWs or anyone
LET THE BIBLE DECIDES WHO IS TELLING THE TRUTH AND WHO IS LYING IN THIS CASE ALSO WHO IS TWISTING THE BIBLE MEANING AND WHO IS NOW RESTORING THE ORIGINAL MEANING
JOHN 14:28 English Standard Version
"You heard me say to you, ‘I am going away, and I will come to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I am going to the Father, for the FATHER IS GREATER THAN I".
New Living Translation
"......I am going to the Father, who is greater than I am."
JOHN 20:17 English Standard Version
Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to MY FATHER and your Father, to MY GOD and your God.’”
REVELATION 1:1 English Standard Version
The revelation of Jesus Christ, WHICH GOD GAVE HIM to show to his servants the things that must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John,
(John is talking of Jesus Christ who is back in heaven already.That God in heaven He gave Jesus this revelation after ascension)
REVELATION 2:18 New International Version
"To the angel of the church in Thyatira write: These are the words of the Son of God, whose eyes are like blazing fire and whose feet are like burnished bronze.
(Even when he went back to heaven He is still THE SON OF GOD)
REVELATION 3:2 New American Standard Bible
'Wake up, and strengthen the things that remain, which were about to die; for I have not found your deeds completed in the sight of My God
(Jesus is now in heaven and still he refers to HIS GOD)
REVELATION 5:9 New International Version
And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood YOU PURCHASED FOR GOD persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.
(He came to earth He poured His blood, through which He purchased NOT FOR HIMSELF but FOR GOD)
ACTS 7:56 New Living Translation
And he told them, "Look, I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing in the place of honor AT GOD'S RIGHT HAND!"
(This is Stephen's words, he says what he saw was in heaven sometimes after Jesus' ascension, he didn't see Jesus alone as the Only One True God, rather he saw God and glorified Jesus at His right hand, there was no anyone else, he didn't saw Holy Spirit as the third but the preceding verse said the Stephen was full of Holy Spirit)
JESUS while on earth he NEVER claim that He and His Father are equal, rather He said 'He and His Father are one and He wanted the same way He and His disciples be one.
(JOHN 17:21-23 that all of them may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I am in You. May they also be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me. I have given them the glory You gave Me, so that they may be one as We are one - 23 in them and You in Me-that they may be perfectly united, so that the world may know that You sent Me and have loved them just as You have loved Me) That is not to say He is Equal to HIS FATHER
While on earth He prayed to HIS FATHER and He encouraged us to do the same.....(see Lord's Prayer a.k.a Our Father)
ABOUT THE SAVIOUR
JEHOVAH (also translated in English as YAHWEH YHWH) God is the only savior, besides Him no other... ISAIAH 43:11
If Jehovah God did not decide to save us no one would have ever be able to do so
He is the provider of Ransom sacrifice. And He chose Jesus to do the job of salvation
JOHN 3:16-17 New International Version reads
"For God so loved the world that HE GAVE HIS ONE AND ONLY SON Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.
(Jesus did not sent Himself on, rather as He Himself said many times, HE WAS SENT BY HIS FATHER to be our savior)
1 JOHN 4:14 NIV Reads
And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world.
(The bible never said Jesus sent Himself, nor does it says God sent himself down as Jesus, But it says GOD SENT JESUS TO BE OUR SAVIOR)
LET US GO BACK TO ISAIAH 43:11
The context shows that Jehovah God (prophesying through Isaiah) was talking about Salvation of His servant Israels from Babylonian bondage ... He said he will save them from that slavery READ CHAPTER 41-46
And in this he used CYRUS to save them (compare to other verses, chapters, books of the bible and history)
ISAIAH 44:28-45:2 (I shorted them)
Thus says the LORD to Cyrus His anointed, Whom I have taken by the right hand, To subdue nations [BABYLON] before him And to loose the loins of kings; To open doors before him so that gates will not be shut: "I will go before you and make the rough places smooth; I will shatter the doors of bronze and cut through their iron bars.…
IT IS NOT the first time for Jehovah God to use someone (human) to save his people,
He used angles to save LOATH from Sodom, He used Moses to deliver Israel from Egypt, He use judges to save and/or protect Israel from their enemies BUT ALL THE CREDIT GOES TO HIM AS THE SAVIOR
NOW
He use Jesus to save the whole world
After Jesus Christ completed that work faithful, He returned back to His Father in heaven (as we have seen above) and.....
PHILIPPIANS 2:5-11 reads
...therefore GOD EXALTED HIM to the highest place, and GAVE HIM THE NAME above all names, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory OF GOD THE FATHER.…
(Again all the credit goes back to Him, Jesus ones said "I am not seeking for my own glory but of the one who sent me)
So Jehovah God chose Jesus His Only Begotten Son, NO ONE ELSE, to be our savior
ACTS 4:12 New International Version
"Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved."
LET ME END HERE FOR THIS OTHER ISSUES I WILL COMMENT ON THEM AT LATER TIME
WOULD YOU LIKE TO KNOW MORE...?
What does bible says about:
1. why Jesus is called "GOD'S ONLY BEGOTTEN SON"...?
2. what happen when we die...?
3. Is God cares for us...? if Yes...why does he permit us to suffer....?
Till then Stay blessed
you did a work i wanted to do. kudos
no need of arguing with an apostate truth seeker who abandoned the faith just like the father of the world (satan) did, cos he could not conform to Jehovah`s righteous standard. he wanted it his way and Jehovah`s organization never allowed him.
You do know that it was written like this for the actual present audience...at that time, an ancient culture with ancient understanding and mindset, Eastern mindset by the way, not Western. The Son of God, the Right Hand, Alpha and Omega, etc., all these the at-the-time present terms were known to represent a different concept than that the West has dissected and tried to make it their own. An ancient Eastern mindset, hijacked by at-the-time the fairly-newly found Western Grecian-to-Roman mindset, evolved by the powers-that-be to further Westernize it, due to many historical factors, separating the Hebraic roots from Jesus, when there is no New Testament without an Old one first. Everything Jesus was to quote came from the Old Testament. Name one Scripture Jesus quoted from the New Testament. Still waiting.
So, if you want to understand the New Testament, go back in time by studying the Old Testament and the all-surrounding-histories of the Middle East, not doctrine from a Modern Western organization of those that came way after these ancient cultures, and didn't even process thought the same way, leaving so much lost in translation.
For the record. your letter "J:" God doesn't care if you say Jee-suhs, Hay-soos, Yeshu'a, Iesous, Jehovah, Yahweh, etc. Man cares about that. Know that the "J" was introduced into late Latin to identify words that started with an Y from languages older than herself, to preserve this knowledge of the former languages and also identify unoriginal Latin derivatives. The Latin got Iesus from the Greek Iesous, which came from Yeshu'a, since HEBREW didn't have a "J." So it could only be "JHWH in German, where Jehovah's Witnesses did the same morphology that Latin did with the Greek, but added the vowels of Adonai to it, since Hebrew is a Consonant root language. Take JeHoWaH and pronounce it in German...now pronounce it in English...if you are too concerned about the pronunciation being correct, then all English speakers who pronounce the Name as Dzheh-Hoe-Vah, are already wrong by the German standard alone, which came before English.
Not the full detail, but some language morphology:
Greek doesn't have an SH or a Y like Hebrew does, and since Yeshu'a is masculine, the Greeks transliterated the Hebrew Y for the Greek I, the half vowel as a schwa sounded e, the SH for a S, and then added the Greek masucline suffix -ous. So you get Ie-S-OUS = Greek Iesous, passed down to Latin's language rules to Iesus. Latin derived much from the Greek. Greek's -ous became Latin's -us = Iesus The Romans created the "J," among other letters, in their late cultured language = Jesus, but still pronounced the same. Throughout European history, Latin's children and German's children and Arabic languages collided with each other. German pronounced Jesus GERMANLY, not modern Englishly. While English is derived much from German, English originally took the J sound from German-from-Latin, but was over influenced later by the French that morphed into the "dzh" sound, then further down the line, English elongated the "e", softened the first "s" to a "z" and the "u" sound in the name Jesus. So German gets "YEH-zoos", and English gets "DZHEE-zuhs." And Spanish, that went a whole different way with the J, gets "heh-SOOS." So in the defense of the original pronunciation, we are all wrong! But God has brought us out of all tongues, peoples, tribes and nations...so all that "BUT WHAT IS GOD'S NAME" stuff, can it. He isn't interested or invested inasmuch man is in the crazy things that divides His people that He called for His own self, will and pleasure. Know what a NAME is, and not what it sounds like, if you're going to read the Bible correctly; i.e., in the NAME of the LORD, in the NAME of Jesus, Name above all NAMES.
look dude. wake up to reality. Trust God for He knows what He is doing. Jesus is the Word so read His life and find life
someone asked me if im a jehovha witness i told them i never seen the accident
Thank you for pointing this out. One could also ask why they are called "Jehova's Witnesses" whereas the Bible says that we are Jesus' Witnesses and Jesus is our Savoir.
This is the first ever video I heard from you my brother and the Spirit of God is with thee. Now I have some ammo for the JW, hehe!
Ammo? Lol

Wayne Lawson yes Amen
I was a JW for 5 years. waste of my time. Jesus tells us to even love enemies, yet they see me and are not allowed to talk to me. No love in the JWs.
For 10 years I have been going to the meetings. Sorry to say this, but I've in countered some were rather snubbish. It made me feel unwelcomed. Some of them can put on an act of kindness but when they are not around you, it's the total opposite. It was time for me to get out of the organization. I do believe the Watch tower society is inaccurate. Some of the things you read, some are not true. You really don't know if it is true. I have the same Bible this gentleman just held up in his hand. But the thing that puzzles me! Why was the Bible changed from the original way to this new writing? I'd like it better the original way. The JW organization didn't have to change it at all. This what throws people off course.
@@a.chicboysmith9569 the truth is not for everyone. We know that. Jesus and Jehovah knows that. Jehovah draws those that want the truth, a clean life and heart. Those that love him from their heart for the love he's has given all what we do not deserve. The greatest act of love, his dear son Jesus. Serving him is not joining a church or organization. Our dedication is to him alone and we follow Jesus our leader. We all follow those that follow him. His preaching and teaching. About his kingdom the only hope for mankind. Man is not going to destroy this earth or mankind. Jehovah's mighty son will soon take action when the ruler of the world and his demons lead mankind to Armageddon.
@@a.chicboysmith9569 The new world translation is no more than other bible translation. It is a translation to have clear understanding of what manuscript meant from it's language. While the well known King James Bible used Jehovah name several places, the translator did not translate the name everywhere they saw it in manuscript, so here the King James omitted the name and used LORD instead. On the other hand, the new world translation did not add this name, but merely translated the name as they saw it in the manuscript. There is a lot of information to cover but that was brief and to the point. You may email me at adl502@aol.com and I would be glad to cover your bible questions.
John 2:21..TEMPLE OF HIS BODY: As this comment by the apostle John shows, Jesus was using figurative speech , comparing his anticipated death and ressurection and RECONSTUCTION of a building.
It never said he would build one like It, he said "destroy THIS temple, and in 3 days I will raise IT again."
I am baffled that you have run into so many witnesses that are denying the resurrection in his original body. There must be some kind of misunderstanding. I was raised around the religion from birth and know for a fact that they do not deny the resurrection of Jesus in his own body. The only conclusion I can arrive at is they didn’t understand that you were trying to say that is what they believe and as that is not a bible teaching and they have never denied His physical resurrection they probably were not understanding your point. I am not a Witness for my own reasons, but I am always stunned at what they are accused of.
It is a fact the the Watchtower organization in Brooklyn denies the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ and have always taught that.
Heather, l am not sure what you may be encountering, that does sound strange because l have been witnessing to J. Witnesses since 1984 and l have never met a J.W. that believed that Jesus Christ bodily rose from the dead.
It is an essential teaching of theirs that Jesus rose a spirit being and as the video says, His body "dissolved into gases" or is being held by Jehovah as a "memorial."
I believe if you ask a Witness acquaintance of yours they will clear it up.
Make sure you are talking of a "bodily" resurrection of Christ.
PEACE !
LOVE !
They do deny the bodily resurrection in their own literature: wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/1101974079?q=jesus+resurrection+spirit&p=par
they do believe this Heather, my wife is one and I am a Christian; we have debated this and I explained it was a bodily resurrection; they are taught Jehovah God recreated Jesus after death, the use the word resurrection but they actually mean Carbon copy, she told me I was misinformed and we tabled the conversation. It is difficult to share the Gospel because they feel that they know and you are misinformed. I hate to generalize but it's true I even showed how Jesus eats the fish to show he isn't a spirit. Luke 24:36-39. "Now as they said these things, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them, and said to them, "Peace to you." But they were terrified and frightened, and supposed they had seen a spirit. And He said to them, "Why are you troubled? And why do doubts arise in your hearts? Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have."" They do believe it is many bodies the word "appeared" is mishandled
Is Jesus God?
@@canderssonswedican7486
Mighty God.
Mighty and Almighty are different because they don't share the same equal standing but many argues that they are the same. Tryin' to fit the trinity so badly yet proofs are no where to find.
Never said that many were the way! Narrow is the road to everlasting life!
Narrow is the path but ONLY Jesus is the gate.
@VideoAudioDisco09 the fact that you don't understand the difference between a religious belief and a cult is obvious
@VideoAudioDisco09 when you live through what the rest of us have lived through by being in a cult you won't have to look up the definition in a book. It's not a trivial thing to have your whole world dangled over your head if you want to leave. You are a hostage and only people who have felt and lived this know the true meaning of a cult
This is also a very good verse to share with them, as they like to claim Arch Angel Michael equal with Jesus......
This will debunk that believe real quick ‼️
Jude 1:9
But even the archangel Michael,
when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses,
did not himself dare to condemn him for slander but said, "The LORD rebuke you!"
See , only Jesus can rebuke ☝️😉☝️

God bless you Samuel, glad to hear that you're out of this cult. My name is Jim (Dimitris) and i've been born and live in Athens, Greece. At the age of 25 and without being a member of any church or something, while living a sinful life, i started searching and praying to God with the hope that He was alive. Then, one day, 10th of May 2013 and while i was reading the Bible and praying, confessing my sins to Him, suddenly the presence of God came upon me and i was born again (John 3), i became a witness of multiple miracles and started preaching that the Lord Jesus Christ is alive and that He saves. I would like to share with you the site of the church which the Lord guide me after @t (it also has an english translation at the top right) I wish God guide you and protect you and your family in the name of the Lord Jesus. Amen.

i love this, i really appreciate your sincerity in saying don't embarrass them, because i see a lot of people laughing as they preach the truth, making the witnesses feel embarrassed, but that is not what God wants us to do. i appreciate how you say to pray the holy spirit reveals it, this is exactly what we have to do. you are wise and i sincerely appreciate this video, i will spread the news of the Lord from the bible and pray for the people who reject it, that he may show and reveal it to them in their hearts. i needed this video for one specific reason and i believe the Lord directed me here, thank you and God bless you
how am i a liar?
LOL WHAT FOOLISHNESS ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT
You have absolutely no clue what youre talking about, because nothing you wrote had to do with hardly ANYTHING I wrote. You are judging throughout your whole paragraph. Where did i say that I receive money for anything? How am i "rude" and "mean" for saying I appreciate him NOT trying to embarrass them, and genuinely trying to teach them the truth? You are making absolutely zero sense, and I just cannot understand where you've come up with that load of lies. Where did I say witnesses dont answer me??? My wife is a witness smart guy. And I am talking to her about all of it and she listens to me so I honestly have no clue what you are going on about.
when this videos come up sometimes i dont even want to watch because they feel either repetitive or for a christian that studies it feels easy to answer Jehovah witnesses or other sects. BUUUUT i choose to click and learn for love to those in the sects and cults if we do not love them we cant say we have Christ in us. the gospel is enough to save yes, but there can never be too much wisdom. thank you for the informative video that you so lovingly produced sir!
These videos are not done out of love, but in hate. But they thought that Jesus and his followers were in a cult too!
@@mrg466 the difference is that Jesus proved He is God in the flesh. The jw says otherwise.telling them the truth is an act of love because if they do not repent when they get to the judgment day Jesus will say depart from me I never knew you. Why? Because the Jesus in the jw teachings is not the Jesus of the bible
@@SamcoB1 the Trinity is a added lie! Furthermore it makes no sense! The Bible says, no one can see God and yet live, but many saw Jesus, so did everyone drop dead? Is Jesus praying to himself? Jesus said he can do nothing on his own, so how can he be God? The Father is Greater than I am said Jesus. The Bible says that Jesus must rule for a 1000 years, and then give the kingdom back to his father, how can he do that, if he's God? I tell you, Satan is patting himself on the back, because it's a job well done in his favor!
@@mrg466 1 John 5:7 shows the trinity. Jesus not only saw the father but in the beginning was as with him and was as him says in John 1:1 ...now the way to see how jesus prayed you have to see that 3 persons who are one doesnt mean He prayed to Himself but to the father. But they are one in unity and equality of nature. Because if Jesus was not God just as m.k such as the father why would He allow people to worship and bow down to Him. He did also say destroy this temple in 3 days I will raise it up. So saying He rose from the death is accurate also because He is God. If Jesus was sinless and perfect He must be God if He is not perfect and sinless then Sin hasn't been atoned for....but if that's the case what do the epistles teach then? See the theology of the witnesses who cant be witnesses because they have never seen Jehovah is flawed in many doctrines that are key. Along with their failed end of the world predictions
@@SamcoB1 The only thing you said that I agree with is, yes, there have been failed predictions in the past. Predictions made by people in the old days. I don't know if any of those people are still alive. As I told one person on one of these videos. I believe in being truthful, even if may hurt my defenses. I didn't want to bother with JW's because of those things. But the Elders I spoke to, didn't deny these things, and told me, that they are not happening today. I also told them I would never preach anything on the basis of predictions. Also, I do have my own mind, (no brainwashing here). As for the Trinity I will never support that teaching, if you choose that teaching, then that's ok for you, just not my thing,but thanks for reply.
Great video.
But I have another follow-up question for the JW's when they said that HE manufactured his body to appear in other places at the same time;
Who found out that Jesus manufactured his body and how did they know that HE manufactured his body?
I'll tell you who: the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society.
JW's listen to them because they claim to have the Holy Spirit and speak for God. In reality this is anti-christ because the Watchtower places themselves in the position of God and usurps the authority of Christ.
@@ObadiahWanderer kinda like the pope
the disciples didn't recognized his new body :JONH 21:4 However, just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the beach, but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.+ 5 Then Jesus said to them: “Children, you do not have anything to eat, do you?” They answered: “No!” 6 He said to them: “Cast the net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” So they cast it, but they were not able to haul it in because of the large number of fish.+ 7 Then the disciple whom Jesus loved+ said to Peter: “It is the Lord!” Now Simon Peter, on hearing that it was the Lord, put on* his outer garment, for he was naked, and plunged into the sea. 8 But the other disciples came in the small boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not a long way from land, only about 300 feet away.
9 When they came ashore, they saw there a charcoal fire with fish lying on it and bread. 10 Jesus said to them: “Bring some of the fish you just now caught.” 11 So Simon Peter went on board and hauled the net ashore full of big fish, 153 of them. And though there were so many, the net did not burst. 12 Jesus said to them: “Come, have your breakfast.”+ Not one of the disciples had the courage to ask him: “Who are you?” because they knew it was the Lord. 13 Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and the same with the fish. 14 This was now the third time+ that Jesus appeared to the disciples after being raised up from the dead.
Well, I was a different kind of JW, because I didn't do any of these things. Maybe that's not why I'm 1 anymore 🤔
Wow, so many haters on here that are quick to tear down this man’s point.
Anyway, yes, I have heard them say that Jesus can manufacture a body to appear, and that he used a different body, and that he was a spirit. All from JWs. I know, I was born in and was one for 20 years, then POMI for an additional 16 years before I found Christ.
I love the fact that this scripture states that HE will raise his body after 3 days.
Brother, thank you for posting this video. Very well said. Don’t worry about the trolls. They post crazy things on my videos as well and they really think their logic makes sense but now it makes me first laugh, then SMH and then feel compassion for them bc they are so lost and have no idea what the Bible really does teach.
What does POMI stand for?
Actually JW's believe only 144,000 of their members past and present are "born again" and heaven bound. The rest of them are of the Great crowd which will live forever on a cleansed earth in the Kingdom of God. According to John chapter 3 unless one is born again he cannot even see the kingdom of God. A verse or two later He also says unless one is born of water and spirit he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. The current JW's knocking at your door have a problem. They are not "born of water and spirit". How can they possibly think they can see the Kingdom of God let alone enter into it?
mimiluvfromsf it means physically out mentally in. I didn’t go to any meetings or assemblies but in my mind I still believed all the doctrines and never went anywhere else because I believed it was “the truth”
Lavender Frog. "Mentally in" You were one of many victims of cult mind control. I was headed in that direction many years ago. Thank fully I found a book by William Schell, "Errors of Jehovah's Witnesses". I was never a JW, I only studied one of their books with them. But for a while after reading this book I still questioned: "What if this book is wrong?" I came to my senses. I'm so glad you were freed from their clutches.

Here's a quote from the "Delian Problem": Doubling the Cube, the most famous of the collection, is often referred to as the Delian problem due to a legend that the Delians had CONSULTED PLATO on the subject. In another form, the story asserts that the Athenians in 430 B.C. consulted the oracle at Delos in the hope to stop the plague ravaging their country. They were advised by Apollo to double his altar that had the form of a cube. As a result of several failed attempts to satisfy the god, the pestilence only worsened and at the end they turned to PLATO for advice." See anything wrong with this quote?
PLATO was born in 428 BCE. So he is being consulted some 2 years before his own birth. This is just one example of what happens when the timeline is artificially expanded. The only possible eclipse that can be linked to the beginning of the Peloponnesian War is a total eclipse that occurred in January of 402 BCE, meaning the PPW began in 403 BCE. At 30-year peace agreement ended in the 10th year of the war, that is, 394 BCE. If that was the original 30-year peace agreement enacted at the time of Xerxes' invasion of Greece, then the invasion took place in 424 BCE. The year of Xerxes' invasion has two critical references: 1) It must be an Olympic year. Check. 2) There must be an eclipse over Persia in the "early spring," meaning the first month of Spring. Check. There was an eclipse on March 21st. There was no eclipse in the early Spring in 480 BCE, the revised year for Xerxes' invasion.
Of note, when 424 BCE dates Xerxes' invasion correctly, the Battle of Marathon occurrs 10 years earlier in 434 BCE. Two Greek references confirm Darius I died at Marathon. If that's the case, then the temple was completed late this year (Ezra 6:14,15) since the temple was completed the year Darius I died after 21 years of building beginning the 1st of Cyrus. Thus if we add 21 years to 434 BCE, the true date for the 1st of Cyrus would fall in: 455 BCE!
This is just one of several ways to confirm the original year for the 1st of Cyrus in 455 BCE, which matches the Bible's reference that Jerusalem would begin to be rebuilt in 455 BCE. Even JWs recognize that. Only they date 455 BCE to year 20th of Artaxerxes rather than the 1st of Cyrus.
Anyway, just thought you'd like knowing that Plato is being consulted 2 years before his birth with the present chronology, which is impossible. That chronology also dates the fall of Jerusalem in 587/586 BCE, a date some presume to be accurate, but is not. More importantly, it is not BIBLICAL. The Bible requires the fall of Jerusalem to take place in 529 BCE; not 607 BCE or 586 BCE. Thanks for doing a video on this interesting discrepancy!

Isaiah 42:8 48:11-12 {God will never share his glory}
I am the Lord: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, and I will not give my glory unto another. I am he; I am the first, I also am the Last.
Revelation 1: 8
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was and which is to come, the Almighty.
Philippians 2:5-7 {of what did he empty himself}
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of man:
{The Greek reads as follows}
Who in form of God subsisting not rapinesteemed it to be equal with god; but himself emptied.
John 14:28 {Jesus in human form occupies a lower position then the Father}
"You heard that I said to you, ‘I go away, and I will come to you.’ If you loved
me, you would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father; for the Father is greater than I.'"
Hebrews 2:9 {Jesus Humbled himself while walking among us}
But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels,
namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor,
so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone
Galatians 4:4 {Jesus set aside his divine nature to be born as a human}
But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law,
Colossians 2:9 {Yet he was still GOD}
For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form,
John 17:5 {God shares his glory} {of his right to exercise his deity}
And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
Matthew 28:18 {which he takes up after the resurrection}
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, all power {authority} is given (surrendered) unto me in heaven and in earth.
Revelation 1: 11-14, 22:13, 16 {Jesus assumes his correct position as GOD}
Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: …
And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;…
And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man,
His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end the first and the last…
>> have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches.
Revelation 1:17-18 {John states Jesus is the First and the Last?}
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, fear not; I am the first and last:
I am he that liveth, and was…………….. Dead, and, behold, I am alive for evermore, A-men; and have the keys of hell and of death
…..When did the First and the Last (GOD), the Beginning and the End (GOD), the Alpha and Omega (GOD) taste death?

Exodus 3:13-14 (I AM THAT I AM)
And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, what is his name? What shall I say unto them?
And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
John 8:58 10:30-36
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. I and my Father are one. Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him. Jesus answered them, Many good works have I showed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
The Jews answered him, saying, for a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man makest thyself God.
Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are Gods? If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the son of God?
Jesus states " the Father and I are one" He's talking about being one in nature not one in will, we know this because the Jews understood it to be one in nature "thou being a man, makest thyself God", notice they didn't say "a God but just God",
John 5:18 states
“Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken{loosed} the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God”
…..Jesus understood the Jews were interpreting it this way. For he states
John 8:58
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I AM”
….Jesus knew this was something every Jew had burned in his mind from infancy
Exodus 3:14 “And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM".
So to hear someone else use it and apply to himself BLASPHEMY ! Absolutely.
Colossians 2:9
For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the godhead bodily.
Philippians 2:6
Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God
In His Service,
@@canderssonswedican7486 May the God and Father of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, Who Himself is Emmanuel (God with us) and the fullness of the Godhead bodily, richly bless and preserve you, until that great day when our God shall appear. Amen.
In John 2:18-22, Jesus did not lie when he said his body would be resurrected. What Body was Jesus raised in? A spiritual body as we are told in 1 Corinthians 15:45 "The last Adam is a life-giving spirit." (BBE) So he did not lie.
Here is some more of 1 Corinthiand 15 from the KJV Please take note of the words in bold
"42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
44 It is sown a *natural body;* it is raised *a spiritual body.* There *_is_* a natural body, and there *_is_* a *spiritual body.*
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
48 *As is the earthy,* such are they also that are earthy: and *as is the heavenly,* such are they also that are heavenly.
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
50 Now this I say, brethren, *that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God;* neither doth corruption inherit incorruption."
Jesus took on a spiritual body. He was able to manifest a physical body, and took on several forms. that is why his followers did not recognise him by appearance but by what he said and did
Watchtower Defense
Calvin are you suggesting that I misspelled Defence? As i live in Australia I am using British/Australian spelling. Americans spell it Defense.
defence, Jesus said, "destroy THIS TEMPLE and I'll raise IT up again." John 2:19
*Question*
What did the Pharisees destroy?
a) a human body?
b) a spirit creature?
tim spangler solid. Anyone who hurts children or covers the tracks of those who are abusing children has a special place in the lake of fire if they don't repent and believe the gospel. No Christian would ever do these things, which shows us the God we serve is different. Catholic abuse of children, jw's abuse and cover up of child abuse, Islam also does the same, and Scientology too. All these people are buying into the lie and worshipping Satan, knowingly or unknowingly. Doesn't matter its all the same for the children being abused behind the closed doors of these "peaceful religions". These facts helped me to find and accept the truth and even helped me to forgive these abusers (I was raped at 3 years of age) when I was not saved when I found out what exactly happened and who did it, I was intent on getting a gun and putting a whole through the mans head. I heard this in my head and heart when I was planning this that stopped me from carrying out my plan, it said "if you do this you will be just as bad as him.". I was 18 when I was planning this. I went through horrible experiences until I got saved at 22 years of age. Jesus Christ paid it all, all to Him I owe. Hallelujah.
Watchtower Defence verse 42 says, "it is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption" and in verse 44 "it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body". The difference isn't in appearance. The difference is in the mortality of the former and the immortality of the latter. The bible doesn't actually say what we will look like in heaven, but it also doesn't NOT say. Verse 49 above means that, in heaven, our bodies will be changed into the likeness of Christ.
Let the scriptures teach us, let's not change them to suit our religious beliefs. You are right on the money, brother! Keep up the good work. God bless you!!!
Thank you Sir. I will use this, and the NWT to share it when they come to my door. God Bless.
