Did you know that Jehovah Witnesses and Muslims have this in common?

Question

Jehovah Witnesses get most of there theaching from michael the arch angel, muslims get most of there teaching from Angel Gabriel. In the case of Muhammod he reports speaking to the angle gabriel. In the case of Witnesses there founder was said to have been having conversations with Michael the arch angle.
The bible warns us that there will be spirits that come to us a angles of light and we are to test them. Gabriel and Michael would be two of God obident angles. How do the Muslims and the Jehovah Witness know these angels are actually Gods angles and not satan deamons passing themselfs off as God angles?
In the case of the Jehovah Witness it is reported that they claim that this michael is Jesus also. Yeat in the bible John 1:1 clears that up. The Word was with God and is God. Did this angle teach them this.
In the muslims the angle taught them that Christ was the messiah but that he was not God. But only Allah heals and can heal. And the quran states ISA healed.

My question is are these angles really demons teaching you false things?

The reason i am asking this is i have witnessed healings in the christian churches. But not in the muslim or jehovah witness faiths. So if God is still healing and not in your two faiths there is a real problem as God is the healer. Also neither the muslims nor the jehovah witnesses have any testimony of great mericals in there faiths. But the jews and the christians both due.

why can't a demon preach the muslim religion? And why can a demon not preach the JWs religion? I mean they neither one line up with the bible.

Answer 1

It is truly sad when anti-Witnesses work to spread falsehoods about Jehovah's Witnesses. The fact remains that for over 125 years, Jehovah's Witnesses have consistently and repeatedly maintained that they have experienced NO divine inspiration, but only the bible itself as the source of their beliefs and teachings.

No so-called "founder" of Jehovah's Witnesses has ever asserted that he had received some message from God or Jesus or any angel, beyond simply being drawn to the bible's plain message. Such an idea actually conflicts with the Witnesses teachings that such communication ceased with the passing of the apostles.

So what do they believe about angels and Jesus?

Jehovah's Witnesses believe that the bible term "angel" properly refers to *ANY* spirit creature. The resurrected Christ Jesus is a spirit creature, so Witnesses believe that it is not technically incorrect to refer to Jesus as "an angel"; it would be incorrect to believe that Jesus was a mere angel on a par with other angels. That is because the bible teaches that Jesus worked alongside Jehovah to CREATE the other angels (and the rest of the heavenly and physical universe).

(Colossians 1:15-18) By means of him all other things were created in the heavens and upon the earth, the things visible and the things invisible, no matter whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All other things have been created through him and for him. 17 Also, he is before all other things and by means of him all other things were made to exist, 18 and he is the head of the body, the congregation. He is the beginning

(Revelation 3:14) These are the things that [Jesus] says, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation by God [see 2 Cor 1:20]

(John 1:1,14) In the beginning [Jesus] was... So [Jesus] became flesh and resided among us, and we had a view of his glory, a glory such as belongs to an only-begotten son from a father; and he was full of undeserved kindness and truth.

Jehovah's Witnesses believe that no salvation occurs without Christ, accepting Christ's sacrifice is a requirement for true worship, every prayer must acknowledge Christ, Christ is the King of God's Kingdom, Christ is the head of the Christian congregation, and Christ is now immortal.

(Hebrews 1:3-4) [Jesus] sat down on the right hand of the Majesty [Jehovah] in lofty places. 4 So he HAS BECOME better than the angels

(Matthew 28:18) And Jesus approached and spoke to them, saying: "All authority has been GIVEN ME in heaven and on the earth.

(Acts 2:36) God MADE HIM both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you impaled.

(John 3:35) The Father loves the Son and HAS GIVEN all things into his hand.

(Acts 5:31) GOD EXALTED this one as Chief Agent and Savior to his right hand

(Psalm 2:2-6) The kings of earth take their stand And high officials themselves have massed together as one against Jehovah AND against his anointed one... Jehovah himself will hold them in derision..., Saying: "I, even I, HAVE INSTALLED my king [Jesus]


As the agent of creation for the other angels, who better than Jesus to be their "Chief"? The term "archangel" is always in the singular, and actually means "Chief of the Angels". The bible teaches that the one and only archangel (named "Michael") is actually the heavenly pre- and post-human Jesus.

Note that Jesus the Lord calls with an archangel's voice:
. (1 Thessalonians 4:14-16) Jesus died and rose again, so, too... the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a commanding call, with an archangel's voice


Note who leads angelic armies (Jesus is "Logos", "The Word"):
. (Revelation 19:13-14) the name he is called is The Word of God. Also, the armies that were in heaven were following him

. (Revelation 12:7) And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels battled


Who returns and stands up during a time of distress such as has never happened before?

. (Daniel 12:1) "And during that time Michael will stand up, the great prince who is standing in behalf of the sons of your people. And there will certainly occur a time of distress such as has not been made to occur since there came to be a nation until that time. And during that time your people will escape, every one who is found written down in the book.

. (Matthew 24:3-21) the disciples approached him [Jesus] privately, saying: "Tell us, When will these things be, and what will be the sign of your presence and of the conclusion of the system of things?" And in answer Jesus said to them: "...All these things are a beginning of pangs of distress. ...But he that has endured to the end is the one that will be saved. ...for then there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world's beginning until now, no, nor will occur again.

Once you study it, the bible really teaches that Jesus is Michael. Although anti-Witnesses sometimes pretend that Gabriel (and sometimes "Lucifer") are also archangels, the fact remains that the bible itself speaks of only one single solitary archangel. Who would be above Jesus among heavenly creatures?


Interestingly, the Scriptures refer to *ALL* angelic spirit creatures as "morning stars". Jesus is not excluded from that terminology, but he is elevated by the unique description "the BRIGHT morning star".

(Job 38:4,7) When [Jehovah] founded the earth... When the morning stars [or "angels"] joyfully cried out together, And all the sons of God began shouting in applause

(Revelation 22:16) I, Jesus... I am the root and the offspring of David, and the BRIGHT morning star. [caps added]

Answer 2

First of all a satan demon can not preach the faith of Allah in true meanings.he would never tell peoples to worship the only God that is Allah rather he would ask for something else.being a satan........coz satan is at fight with Allah...And you could witness the miracles in church and not in islam becuase you are a christain and you know only about chirstainity and not about islam...so how would you know the miracles of islam??
Now mentioning 'only' some of these miracles!

Prophet Muhammad's greatest miracle has something special about it. All previous miracles were limited by time and place, i.e., they were shown to specific people at a specific time. Not so the miracle of Muhammad, the Qur'an. It is a universal and everlasting miracle. Previous generations witnessed it and future generations will witness its miraculous nature in terms of its style, content and spiritual uplifting. These still can be tested and will thereby prove the divine origin of the Qur'an.
Well if you just read the quran and corelate it with science you wouldbe surprised how can an illitrate person like Muhammad(pbuh) could say all this..that is true miracles from Allah given to him..

Splitting of the Moon:
Almighty Allah says, "The Hour has drawn near, and the moon has been cleft asunder." (An-Najm: 1)
The Prophet's Night Journey to Jerusalem and Ascent to the Heavens:The opening verse of surat al-Isra' relates the miracle of the Prophet's night journey to Jerusalem
water flowing from between her fingers
stones greeting him,
Two trees that were far apart,comming togather and then parting again
The return of the eye of hadhrat Qatadh bin an noaman at its place because of the touch of the hand of Holy prophet !giving light into Hadhrat Ali when it had become inflamed and it was cured almost immdedietly
His wiping of the leg of hadhrat Abdulillah bin atiq whereupon he was immediatly cured
There are are many more....can't just type this time !

Pasting a paragraph from an artical"
There are some who have mentioned his miracles and especially the miracle of the Qur’an as proofs of his prophethood. Some others have mentioned the prophecies of previous prophets about his coming as mentioned in the Bible, both in the Old Testament and the New Testament. Some have also mentioned prophecies in other ancient religious literatures of Hindus, Buddhists and Zoroastrians. Some have based the proofs on the Prophet’s own character, teachings and his achievements. This is indeed a vast subject and can be discussed in many different ways. It is important to know the proofs of his prophethood. Through this knowledge one can distinguish the true prophet from those who make false claims.

Answer 3

On what basis are yiou claiming to know about muslims. Mohammed pbuh got the words of the quran as well as some hadiths of allah through Angel Gabriel and no demon will be sending messages of truth and wellness to the human race. God is the healer and human beings are only means to carry out God's will. So if you are meant to get well, there will be a doctor and medicine to take and if God's will is meant for you to die then you will regardless of whether you have the best of doctors and treatment. We are living everyday miracles of people getting cured from 4th degree cancer adn it is not through others but by being in Mecca. So everyone beleives what he wants but for all muslims itis GOD's will that decides whether a personw ill be healed or not.

Answer 4

Achtung was right to scold you for not getting your facts right. The JWs do not say Michael has spoken to any of their leaders (whereas the founder of Islam DID claim to have revelation from an angel and this was written down).

But your middle section is correct. Deceiving spirits are at work, appearing as angels of light. Could there be a Watchtower Spirit of Deception (no connection to Michael)? This is not an insulting question because EVERY Christian should ask it regarding their leaders, who might have been deceived. Are 'angels of light' at work in churches where miracles appear to happen? Have you checked that out for yourself? What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander! But if you are convinced miracles in your church are genuine, you must accept that Muslims will be equally convinced about miracles in their religion and one can hardly prove the other wrong without questioning the whole concept of miracles.

But you are right to connect the JW and the Muslim denials of Christ being God. Although JWs insist Jesus is 'the Mighty God' of Isaiah, and 'a god' (as per their notorious mistranslation of John 1:1) which makes them polytheists (and Islam deplores polytheism), the odd thing is that JWs don't even worship their demi-god, Jesus, so he might as well not be 'a god'. At least the Muslims outrightly deny any deity in Christ. It's time the JWs used logic to work out the incompatibility of their teaching with their lack of worship of Christ. Hope this helps make the connection clearer.

Answer 5

It isn't just Muslims that think the left hand is unclean - many cultures are offended if you offer your left hand when shaking hands or offer food with that hand - it is because of the bathroom thing. One wipes with the left hand and eats with the right. From what my JW patients have told me (if I understand it correctly) - they believe that the soul and spirit are physically embodied in tissue - including blood. Accepting someone else's blood is akin to accepting someone else's soul - thereby corrupting your own. In order to be accepted into heaven the JW believer must have an uncorrupted soul - therefore, no blood transfusions (or other tissue exchanges like transplants...) Hope this helps! Good luck with school!

Answer 6

It is ONLY Jibra'eel (Gabriel) who is the Angel for revelations. If the Jehovah Witnesses believe in the Otherwise, its not a similarity.

And as Quran clearly states, that it was Jibra'eel who brought the revelations to ALL the prophets.

And we also believe that Jesus Christ (Peace Be Upon Him) performed miracles. But he was 100% human and miracles are NOT performed by humans alone. It was ALmighty GOD who did it.

So these miracles were performed by Jesus Christ by ALLAH's leave.

The QUran is the miracle of Miracles.

The Quran is the last and final message of Almighty GOD sent for the guidance of mankind. All the previous revelations were cancelled as a result.

The Quran was sent to Prophet Muhammed (Peace Be Upon Him) through angel Gabriel. Just like how he brought revelations from ALmighty GOD to Moses, Abraham and Jesus Christ (Peace Be Upon Them).

But as we know, all the previous revelations have got corrupted by materialistic men by the passage of time. It is only the Quran that has remained un-altered since 1427 years. It is a miracle sent by GOD. Imagine a book of hundreds of pages which can be easily memorised completely by millions of people. There are kids as young as the age of 7-8 years who have memorised it completely. The meaning of the word 'Quran' is something which is read and re-read etc. Infact it is the only book which is the most read since 1427 years.

The Quran is a complete code of life. It has scientific miracles, ethics, code of conducts, financial codes etc.

Answer 7

First we base our teachings on THE BIBLE. Second, there is no indication that Jehovah is performing healings in ANY faith. Third, I am glad you have realised the Bible denounces spiritistic practices as you had said in an earlier question that you talk to spirits. Does this mean you have stopped?? I hope so.

Answer 8

What Achtung said.

Jehovah's Witnesses have never claimed that they have been spoken to by an angel. All we need is the Bible.

Miracles were no longer necessary after the first century.

Answer 9

in ur own bible --it says that there is a lot of prophecies that might happen but does not mean anything ---its false prophesies
just to misguide ppl-----i do not remember the exact verse but i will look for it.

this healing are by the power of beleive---like if i am totally convinced that if i drink this cup of water i will be healed---i will get healed----or if i gave u a normal asprin tablet and told u that the hotest product---it just came from Sweden and u took it believing this u will get healed

Answer 10

Firstly Muslims do not get their teaching FROM the angel Gabriel but THROUGH him i.e. God told him to recite this to Muhammad (pbuh).

As far as miracles in church:

22Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' 23Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!' (Matthew 7:22-23)

I think it was on Tarrant on TV (UK show) that I saw a preacher in the U.S. claim that he cured a girl born without a brain. I mean a girl without a brain would be dead not alive for him to cure.
