Friend, nobody can ever obey all the commandments. It's humanly impossible. The only One who did it was Jesus, and He paid the price for us all. If you love Him, though, trying hard to keep His commandments is a natural consequence of it, but nothing that we do can make Him love us more or less. We can only walk away or come closer to Him by our actions. But don't be deceived - it's not a matter of mere actions. It's your heart that matters. And if you start thinking that you are better than people who don't obey The Lord, you are going the wrong way. Humbleness is the word.

The Scriptures quite plainly explain that humans can disqualify themselves from receiving everlasting life; it is only the judgment of God and Christ that one has faithfully COMPLETED a life course that assures salvation.
(Zephaniah 2:3) Seek Jehovah, all you meek ones of the earth, who have practiced His own judicial decision. Seek righteousness, seek meekness. PROBABLY you may be concealed in the day of Jehovah's anger. [emphasis added]
(Amos 5:15) Hate what is bad, and love what is good, and give justice a place in the gate. It MAY be that Jehovah the God of armies will show favor [emphasis added]
(Matthew 7:13-14) Go in through the narrow gate; because broad and spacious is the road leading off into destruction, and many are the ones going in through it; 14 whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life, and few are the ones finding it.
(Matthew 24:13) But he that has endured TO THE END is the one that will be saved. [emphasis added]
(Philippians 2:12) Keep WORKING OUT your own salvation with fear and trembling [emphasis added]
(Hebrews 10:26-27) For if we practice sin willfully after having received the accurate knowledge of the truth, there is no longer any sacrifice for sins left, 27 but there is a certain fearful expectation of judgment
(Hebrews 5:9) [Jesus] became responsible for everlasting salvation to all those OBEYING him [emphasis added]
(James 2:14,17) Of what benefit is it, my brothers, if a certain one says he has faith but he does not have works? That faith cannot save him, can it? ...17 Thus, too, faith, if it does not have works, is dead in itself.

Do as we are saying no longer as we do ok????? The Watchtower enterprise admits they taught satanic practises for over 40 3 years. The Watchtower enterprise taught that the excellent Pyramid grow to be God’s bible in stone till they finally listened to God for the 1st time in all that element. “This so-stated as Bible in Stone grow to be held in esteem for some a protracted time, till the Watchtower subject concerns of November 15 and December a million, 1928, made clean that Jehovah mandatory no stone monument outfitted by skill of pagan pharaohs and containing demonic indicators of astrology to substantiate the witness given interior the Bible. “[w00 a million/a million pp. 6-eleven, Serving With the Watchman]

Is "Jehovah" God?
I thought it was some kind of fancy imported cheese.
What am I thinking of?
So you're saying that Jehovah's witnesses are not people who testify about having seen cheese?
Boy, now I feel bad about what I said to those well-dressed young folks that came to my front door last week. And I really feel bad about having used the taser on them.
Well, live and learn I always say!

While I agree that we shouldn't sugar coat God's Word, it says what it says, the reason we must depend upon grace and mercy is our inability to obey 24/7

If you are a Jehovah's Witness I have one itty bitty question for you. From what I've been told there are 144,000 places in Heaven for the "saved"(Witnesses). If this is true, since the mid 19th century there have been several million Witnesses who have died. If what I've heard is true, do you think that with all those dead Godly people ahead of you there's still space? Hmmmmmmm? Perhaps something for YOU to ponder my dear deluded one!

Good people dont go to Heaven, only forgiven people.
We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ proved by our works. We are not saved by works themselves.

Youre right, but also you need to believe in God in order for him to help you
