      The JW version of the Bible was supposedly transcribed from Greek. The problem is that the man who did it didn't speak, read or write Greek. That was proven in court. The Watchtower Organization goes to great lengths to prevent it's members from discovering this. Reading the Bible by yourself is frowned on. And many other tactics to stop the pursuit of truth. In short it's a cross between a publishing company and a cult. There are also well engineered financial ploys to keeping the believers in line. Plus heavy punishment for acting on one's own. Such as a strict form of shunning. This is both financial and social. Like I said, this is a cult. And the cult comes before God.

      HELLO PASTOR, ARE YOU ANSWERING ? OR YOU JUST COLLECT THE MONETIZATION?
      I believe what the bible says. And the bible and jesus said He is the Son of God who sits at the right hand side of the Father. Jesus quoted david from book the of Psalms. The Lord said to my Lord, sit at My right hand until I make Your enemies Your footstool..
      I Believe Jesus is the Son of God of the most high and He is the messiah. Just as peter answered Jesus.

      Agreed. As a former Jehovah’s Witness, who has moved to another level of Christianity and attends a Bible-based church, I LOVED to see to see this. We’re actually a lot more alike than these young ministers (e.g. all four of them) realize. They all portrayed the fruitages and spirit of the true God. Indeed, the identifying mark of a “true Christian.”

      1940 - “The year 1940 is certain to be the most important year yet because Armageddon is very near.” - Informant, April 1940, p1
      1941 - “Armageddon is surely near…” - Children, 1941, p.366
      1941 -- "Receiving the gift, the marching children clasped it to them, not a toy or plaything for idle pleasure, but the Lord's provided instrument for most effective work *in the remaining months before Armageddon,"* - Watchtower, Sept. 15, 1941, p.288
      JWs spirit directed *truth & "accurate knowledge"* 79+ years ago. *949 months!*
      1942 - “Now, with Armageddon immediately before us…” - Watchtower, April 1, 1942, p.139
      1946 - “The disaster of Armageddon… is at the door.” - Let God be True, 1946, p.194
      1955 - “In the light of the fulfillment of Bible prophecy, it is becoming clear that the war of Armageddon is nearing its breaking-out point.” - You May Survive in God’s New World, 1955, p.331
      1966 - “Armageddon is, in fact, very close indeed.” - Watchtower, October 15, 1966, p.629
      (Luke 21:8) NIV
      He replied:"Watch out that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am he,' and, 'The time is near.' Do not follow them."

      There is more than one spirit being used to preach. Just because you feel the spirit doesn't make it holy. Just because you believe the spirit has opened your eyes to the truth doesn't mean you should disregard scriptures that clearly contradict your beliefs and feelings.
      Everyone is afraid to say I don't know to questions these days like they should have all the answers. Nobody has all the answers but God. And he doesn't tell us everything. Only what we need to know, which is who and what to love and why we should love and when we should love. It is the greatest commandment.
      We should focus more on that love than our own personal pursuits. And let go of the animosity and hatred. It says to hate what is bad, but it also says there are those who take the bad as good and the good as bad, those who take bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.
      We need to search hard and long before we make hasty presumptions about any other faith. Who is right and who is wrong.
      Who is putting their love first? What is that love? Is it the focus of their lives? Where did they learn this love or gain this experience and wisdom for love? What is your love? Extract the rafter before you can see clearly to help others!!!

      @LSmoove 79 Ok. Thank you. I question why you didn't say that to him instead of just "no."
      Now, In the verse John 8:44, I agree. Satan is the father of lies.
      Now comes the Deuteronomy reference. I agree there too. The Lord our God is one God. But the trinity is defined as one God with three distinct persons.
      For the deity of Jesus; How do you refute Jesus' own words when he said in john 10:30, "I and the father are one."? he himself said he is one with God the father, as a single God with distinct persons. When Isaiah prophesied in Isaiah 9:6 he said the son that would be born would be called "everlasting Father, mighty God..." Jesus' name "Immanuel" means "God with us." Jesus is clearly God, and there is immeasurable amounts of scripture to prove it. (Philippians 2:5-8; is another.)
      For the Holy Spirit: When peter opened his letter, he distinctly mentioned all three persons of the Godhead (1 Peter 1:1-2). hen Jesus was baptized, the Father said "this my son..." but at the same time, the Holy Spirit of God descended like a dove onto Jesus. Again, Thank you for your response.

      It’s not that far off from anyone who does a little research. However, Jeff is wrong in his explanations. For example, when he says firstborn means preeminent that is not what the original Greek meant. The Greek Proto-tokos literally means what the Bible says. Proto means first or only, as in prototype. Tokos means to bring forth or give birth to.
      The “preeminent one” definition was added as an alternate definition to appease people who pushed the trinity doctrine because they needed an alternate definition in order to keep claiming what they had been saying.
      The other Greek word for only-begotten is the same thing. Mono-genes. Mono meaning one or only as is monochromatic, mononucleosis, monogamous, monorail, etc. and genes, guess what, is like what it sounds like. Think about when someone says “brown eyes are in his genes”. Genes means to beget, which means to father or to bring forth. As in the King hopes to beget a son as an heir. So only-begotten literally means that Jesus was the only being directly created by God.
      Proverbs 8:22-30 show that Jehovah created Jesus as the beginning of His way, and verse 30 shows that after being created, Jesus then worked alongside God as a master worker, helping create everything else.
      Colossians 1:15 & 16 make perfect sense. Jesus is the image of His father, the invisible God. He is the firstborn of all creation and through him (Jesus) all things (besides himself), so, all other things, were created.

      The number of times you read is not as important as applying what you read. Or as important as accurate understanding so you can dismiss false teachings like the trinity and get to know the true God, (Deuteronomy 4:35 American Standard Version
      35 Unto thee it was showed, that thou mightest know that Jehovah he is God; there is none else besides him.) His purpose for the earth and mankind, what the kingdom is that Jesus taught his disciples about(Matthew 6:9-10) , what are “the last days “ (2 Timothy 3:1-5), etc.
      Satan and the demons know the Bible from cover to cover. They can twist it and deceive people. I’m sure they’ve read it more than you. So, who cares who’s read it more. Do you apply what you read? Do you use the Bible to discern the truth? Do you dismiss false teachings? Do you look at the times we’re living in and realize we’re living in the last days?

      What is the true meaning of Jesus and the gospel?
      John 3:16 tells us that God loved the world so much that he gave His only-begotten son so that people might live. Why was that sacrifice necessary?
      1 John 4:9 tells us we can gain life through God’s only-begotten son.
      What life? We already have life. What did Jesus teach about? What was his gospel?
      At Matthew 6:9-10 Jesus taught us things we should pray for in the model prayer. First was the sanctification of God’s name. Why would that be necessary?
      Jeremiah 23:27 shows that by means of false prophets and false gods, Satan tries to get people to forget about the true God, His name and who He is.
      Deuteronomy 4:35 American Standard Version
      35 Unto thee it was showed, that thou mightest know that Jehovah he is God; there is none else besides him.
      What else was Jesus gospel about? He also taught us to pray for God’s Kingdom to come and His will to be done on earth. What is that Kingdom? What is God’s will for the earth?
      Daniel 2:44 tells us the time will come when God will destroy all the kingdoms (governments) of the earth amd establish His Kingdom.
      Revelation 21:3-4 tells us at that time there will be no more pain or death.
      Psalms 37:11 & 29 tell us the meek and righteous people will live forever in peace on earth.
      Matthew 28:19-20 and Matthew 24:14 show that Jesus gospel was to spread the good news about God’s kingdom to everyone.
      Who are the ones teaching about the true God, Jehovah? It’s not these pastors who are teaching a false doctrine like the trinity.
      Who are the ones teaching the same gospel as Jesus, about God’s Kingdom and His purpose for the earth? It’s not these pastors who are preaching about heaven and hell who don’t even think about God’s purpose for creating the earth and mankind.
      I would say these sisters are already on the narrow path Jesus talks about at Matthew 7:13-14. Most people follow what is easy and popular without doing any study on their own.
      Matthew 24:36-42 Jesus tells us to keep on the watch for the sign of his presence because the time will be like the days of Noah, people won’t care and will be living life, until Armageddon comes and it will be too late for them to jump on board.

      they lost it at the end.. they are incorrect about obedience. So both sides are preaching a false gospel in this video. Most evangelicals make this error. They confuse old covenant works (circumcision, feasts, animal sacrifice) with obedience to Christ. Obedience Christ is not a work of the old covenant law. Christ brought us the new covenant. To be saved you absolutely must obey Christ. If you aren't obeying Christ then you haven't made him your Lord. True faith must produce the fruit of obeying/following Christ, else it's dead faith. **
      Luke 6:46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? ** Matthew 10:38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. ** Acts 5:32 And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given TO THEM THAT OBEY HIM. **

What's most important is a personal relationship with God. Then Holy Spirit will guide them to obedience. Sorry for my broken English

      @@storma22 There are many different interpretations depending on which Christian Denomination you belong to, but I have found Jehovah's Witnesses to be one of the most accurate and well researched of them all. The most common is that of the Catholic teachings. Now during the 3rd & 4th Century C.E the Roman Emperor Constantine had converted to Christianity because he had witnessed the Sun in a Shape of a Cross and searched for answers and found Christianity to be his chosen Religion. During his reign he included his Christian faith within his Political affairs. And he and the Nicaea Council inducted many philosophical teachings including the Trinitarian Doctrine, the Cross to symbolize and promote Christianity when the bible clearly states not to use Symbols or worship Idols(Idolatry), The Sabbath being on a Sunday instead of Saturday when the Bible mentions the Sabbath being on the 7th day of the week not the 1st (Exodus 16 : 25-30). And also Hell being a fiery place of Eternal Torment, when in fact the word "hell" is derived from the Hebrew word "Sheol" which means "resting place for all mankind" to await Gods judgement, And death being the penalty for sin not hell, so as to return to dust (Romans 6 : 7)(Ecclesiastes 3 : 20). Emperor Constantine also wanted to promote Christianity to convert the people of Rome by including Pagan Holidays such as Christmas and Easter. Now you see, a lot of what has been taught around the world is the Beliefs of Constantine's Philosophies and his orders to change the System of Beliefs(Creeds) with the Nicaea Council were final, and the Bishops who opposed his beliefs had no say in it. Before Constantine's ruler-ship During the 2nd siege of Jerusalem in the 1st Century C.E, the Israelite's(Gods true Followers) fled the city before Titus and his army had arrived(Luke 21 : 20-24). And the Israelite's had with them the Original Bible Manuscripts containing Gods Name, which is the four letter Hebrew word יהוה (Tetragrammaton) "YHWH" Yahweh, or Jehovah in English. The Pharisees(Rabbis) had destroyed all other copies of the Original Bible Manuscripts, and ordered Scribes to write new ones but replacing Gods name with "LORD". For example ISAIAH 42 : 8 says "I am LORD, your GOD". LORD is not a name, it is a TITLE. Due to the Pharisees implementing the "Fence Laws" they refused to Proclaim Gods name to the nations. You see what you have learnt today is mostly the Bible beliefs of the Roman Catholics, and being that most Christians have similar beliefs to Catholics its a majority rules. True Christian Teachings is a lot deeper than you think, but whats important is to Follow the Bible Principles and apply them within our daily lives.

      So at 18 you knew it all? What part of John helped you see that “Jesus is Lord”? Was it John 1:14 where we see that Jesus had a glory as that of an only-begotten son from a Father?
      Or verse 18 that clearly explains that no one has seen God at any time, but the only-begotten god, Jesus, who is at the Father’s side, is the one who explained God to us?
      Or is it John 2:16-18 that clearly show Jesus is God’s son, His only-begotten son?
      Was it perhaps John 3:35 that tells us the Father loves the son and has given all things into his hand?
      Perhaps it was John 5:19-38 where Jesus discussed being sent by his Father and doing his Father’s will?
      Was it John 6:27 that tells us that the Father, God himself, puts his approval on or verses 38-40 where Jesus explains that he came down from heaven, not to do his own will, but to do the will of his Father, who sent him?
      Maybe John 8:42 where Jesus said that he came from God. Or, verses 53-59 where Jesus explains that he existed in heaven before Abraham’s day and that his Father bears witness about him?
      Yes, the entire book of John shows Jesus explaining over and over to the people and the Pharisees that he was sent by God, his Father, that he was here to do his Father’s will and that he came to sacrifice himself for mankind and die for our sins. Jesus is Lord, but he showed repeatedly that he is subject to His God and Father, Jehovah. (John 20:17)

      Proverbs 8:22-30 shows that Jehovah created jesus as the beginning of His way. Verse 30 says after that, Jesus worked alongside God as a master worker. Doing what? Helping create everything else.
      That is why jesus is called the firstborn of all creation. (Colossians 1:15) and God’s only-begotten son (John 3:16), because he was the only being directly created by God since he helped create everything else.

      What did Jesus teach us to pray for in the model prayer at Matthew 6:9-10?
      Our Father in heaven, let your name be sanctified. Jesus wanted everyone to know his Father’s name, Jehovah.
      Let you kingdom come. Let your will take place as in heaven also upon earth.
      God’s kingdom is His government. We are asking for the kingdom rule over the earth so it can return to perfect conditions with peace, like heaven.
      What was God’s purpose for the earth? Is God cruel? Did he intend for people to be born imperfect, suffer from pain, crime, violence, illness, mental illness, etc. just to see if they are worthy to go to heaven? That would be cruel.
      However, that is not what the Bible teaches. The conditions the world is in today is not what God intended for the earth or mankind. The Bible talks about a time when God’s original purpose for the earth and mankind will be restored.

      And then Galatians, to understand that they - as the old covenant law or as even in focusing on any other Biblical instructions on godly living as a list of does and don'ts that earn us favor or keeping our salvation or making us grow in holiness- also don't, can't, and mustn't sanctify us, either !
      That as scary and "too relaxed" or whatever it may sound or feel, the focus NEEDS to be on relationship with God in Christ, walking in the Spirit. Fellowshipping with Him throughout our day, and yes, one way of doing that it reading and pondering His word, but it's gotta be the relationship ! Out of a thriving relationship WILL flow the fruits, He assures us ! Where fruit is lacking, it's NOT about being sorrier or trying harder, so, parents - be careful how you talk to your kids ! Don't undermine the extremely crucial truths here ! Verses like "liars go to hell" ( an actual verse or paraphrased from that list near the end of Revelation, I forget) MUST be taken in the context of all of scripture. Which says that the only ones who go to hell are those who are going anyway, as lost/ alienated sinners who refused redemption in Jesus. Not lying doesn't save you, lying alone doesn't damn you. That list must be indicating those who are leaving this life with their sin, all of it - their whole state of corruption - besides any individual or habitual ones, because they rejected the only way to NOT die "guilty as charged" . As it says elsewhere after a list ... " such were some of you, but you've been ( washed in the blood, or a like statement)" .

But I wouldn't go as far as saying they "believe in abortion". They just don't stand against it as accurately and strongly as they should if they really believe that is is murder.

      2)No tolerance for questions or critical inquiry.
      3)No meaningful financial disclosure regarding budget, expenses such as an independently audited financial statement.
      4)Unreasonable fear about the outside world, such as impending catastrophe, evil conspiracies and persecutions.
      5)There is no legitimate reason to leave, former followers are always wrong in leaving, negative or even evil.
      6)Former members often relate the same stories of abuse and reflect a similar pattern of grievances.
      7)There are records, books, news articles, or television programs that document the abuses of the group/leader.
      8)Followers feel they can never be "good enough".
      9)The group/leader is always right.
      10)The group/leader is the exclusive means of knowing "truth" or receiving validation, no other process of discovery is really acceptable or credible.

      Anyone that's willing to take the time to research the origin of the trinity(along with all the other pagan beliefs) that were assimilated by the RCC, Orthodox church, and Protestantism (and used by them to control people and extort money from them) would see, without a doubt, how it was(and continues to be) the greatest scam ever perpetrated on humanity.

      Follow it using a pen, that way you can see the breath of the word.
      Draw a circle halved once squared twice to the right. Draw the shape of GOOD above, being the expanded breath. GOOD is the Father. The geometric image from the word is the Son, being the contracted breath.
      All three into one whole beginning image.

    Great video. My wife left the Jehovah's witness religion when she was 18. That's when she became an adult and moved out of her parents house. Fast forward 15 years later, I fall in love with her and we marry. Since I am a Christian, we did have similar views, but she listened to my testimony and we read the Bible together. She was so excited for me to buy her a real Bible. An NIV bible
