How come christians and Jehovah's witnesses tend to go round to people calling them sinners all the time?

Answer 1

Jehovah's Witnesses do *NOT* 'go round to people calling them sinners all the time'. Instead, Jehovah's Witnesses work to share encouraging thoughts from the Scriptures with their neighbors. When asked about the bible's view of a certain practice, Witnesses share the bible's view.

Incidentally, this question seems to pretend that Jehovah's Witnesses are not Christians. In fact, their full name is "Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses", and no amount of anti-Witness propagandizing can change the Christian nature of their religion.

Anti-Witnesses and Trinitarians repeatedly pretend that Jehovah's Witnesses are not Christian. Trinitarians use an artificial, trinity-specific definition of the term "Christian" which excludes anyone who does not believe that Jesus is God Himself, rather than the Son of God. Interestingly, pagans in the first century pretended that Christ's followers were Atheists(!) because the Christians had a somewhat different idea from the pagans about the nature of God.

Jehovah's Witnesses teach that no salvation occurs without Christ, that accepting Christ's sacrifice is a requirement for true worship, that every prayer must acknowledge Christ, that Christ is the King of God's Kingdom, that Christ is the head of the Christian congregation, that Christ is immortal and above every creature, even that Christ was the 'master worker' in creating the universe! Both secular dictionaries and disinterested theologians acknowledge that Jehovah's Witnesses are a Christian religion.

The Trinitarian arguments are intended to insult and demean Jehovah's Witnesses, rather than to give a Scripturally accurate understanding of the term "Christian".

In fact, the bible most closely associates being "Christian" with preaching about Christ and Christ's teachings. Review all the times the bible uses the term "Christian" and note that the context connects the term with:
"declaring the good news"
'teaching quite a crowd'
'open eyes, turn from dark to light'
"uttering sayings of truth"
"persuade"
"keep on glorifying"

(Acts 11:20-26) [The early disciples of Jesus] began talking to the Greek-speaking people, declaring the good news of the Lord Jesus... and taught quite a crowd, and it was first in Antioch that the disciples were by divine providence called Christians.

(Acts 26:17-28) [Jesus said to Paul] I am sending you, to open their eyes, to turn them from darkness to light and from the authority of Satan to God... Paul said: “I am not going mad, Your Excellency Festus, but I am uttering sayings of truth and of soundness of mind. ...Do you, King Agrippa, believe the Prophets? I know you believe.” But Agrippa said to Paul: “In a short time you would persuade me to become a Christian.”

(1 Peter 4:14-16) If you are being reproached for the name of Christ, you are happy... But if he suffers as a Christian, let him not feel shame, but let him keep on glorifying God in this name


So why do anti-Witnesses try to hijack the term "Christian" and hide its Scriptural implications? Because anti-Witnesses recognize that it is the preaching work that makes it clear that the relatively small religion of Jehovah's Witnesses are by far the most prominent followers of Christ:

(Matthew 28:19,20) Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded

Answer 2

Please do NOT put Christians and Jehovah's witnesses in the something because Christian do not go around calling people sinner because we all know that we are and we don't need to be reminded of it even Christians are sinners too it says in the Bible that we have come short to the glory of God which means that we are all sinners from the time we are born and we all know this so we don't need anyone to tell us this,,,,,,,,,,,

Answer 3

You are factually incorrect, Christians and Jehovah witnesses do not go around telling people they are sinners all the time. What actually happens is that some Christians and Jehovah's witnesses tell people they are sinners and so do some Muslims and Hindus and Jains and so on and so forth.

Answer 4

I am a Christian and I would call myself a sinner before calling anyone else a sinner. Nobody here is perfect, we ARE all sinners. Some Christians may be a bit forceful at letting others know they are sinners, maybe to try to get them to accept Jesus as their savior. More important than calling others sinners is teaching them the truth...the Bible. Calling them sinners can cause them to get defensive and instead of helping like they probably intend, they are just turning them off. Nobody likes name-calling.

Answer 5

First, all are sinners! They don't go around telling others they are sinners, they tell others about how they can have life everlasting once they come to know Jesus Christ as Lord of their lives. It doesn't make one weak, but strong spiritually. Many make fun of us who believe in Christ Jesus as the true Messiah. Who came to earth not to condemn the people but to save the people. We are born in a world that sin is so alive in. It is up to us if we continue in the sin, or turn from the sinful ways. Its not a smooth journey to travel, we have trials and tribulations just like the next guy. However, we know where we get our strength from... its from God above.

Whether you believe or not, God is still God. Whether or not you believe in Him, He still believes in you.

What will you lose if you believe upon His name vs what will you lose if you reject Him?

Your choice, no one else can make it for you.

Answer 6

Because everybody has sinned in some way, regardless of your definition of a sin. We all have moral codes and rules individual to ourselves and there is bound to be someone who isn't living by those rules. People are too wrapped up in religion and instead of accepting that they themselves are sinners, they like to accuse others of being sinners.

Answer 7

Technically, we are all sinners but that means even they are. So if they are going around calling people sinners, they probably need to find a better approach, you know?

Answer 8

Everyone is a sinner my friend. There were only two men who walked this earth that didnt sin. 1 didnt sin for his entire life and 1 didn't sin for many years of his. That's adam and Jesus. After Adam sinned he passed the trait like a disease to all his offspring. US.

And no, JW's don't believe you are going to burn in hell for eternity.

Answer 9

Because they're ignorant sheep. First off they're judging people by their maladjusted behavior. Therefore making themselves self righteous. And then essence being sinners themselves.

Secondly they're immature because they need the reactions to their outbursts in order to feel accepted in the lifestyle they have chosen. When you need others to validate your position, it's really not from your heart.

Finally, let's not forget that the easiest way to convert is by using the fear factor.
