Regardless of whether you think consubstantiality is right or wrong isn't it true that the source of the problems between Trinitarians and Arians is sectarianism? Why are the Arians and Aryans such ideologues? Why are they obsessed with language whether it be through Martin Luther, Goebbels, or Arius? Why are people obsessed with words and ideology? Why are people obsessed with centralization of power? Wasn't it fascist of Rome to absorb the Catholic faith when Constantine forced the Council of Nicea? Weren't God, Light (Christ), and God's Spirit present from the very first word of the Hebrew Bible until the last word of Revelation? Weren't three essences involved in the creation of man? Isn't Man created from the Earth and wasn't the Earth created from God's Spirit? Isn't it foolish to deny this? Why does Genesis say "Let US create man in OUR image?" Doesn't this imply that God (Creator) and the Lord God (Christ) were present? Why does Genesis say that the "Lord God formed man of the dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life?" Isn't it obvious that the Lord God and Light was Christ and the Spirit was the Holy Spirit? How can this be denied by anyone who can read?

>denial of Christ=Jehovah
Jehovah has always been where Jesus was created.
Col 1:15 - Jesus is the first creation (first-born) of God.
>Satanic pride
Satanic pride is when a being tries to rise up to be God. Satan did this and was able to get the perfect created couple to believe that they to can become like God.
Unlike Satan, Jesus did not try to rebel and maintained a meek position. - (Philippians 2: 6-9)
>Let US create man in OUR image?"
Jesus was with God in the beginning when the Earth and Heavens were created.
John 1:1 and the Word was with God.

The answer to the first question has to be sectarianism. The Bible spells out that fact many times.
I have a JW study Bible that tells me that "Lord" in1 Pe 3:15 should be translated as "Jehovah". Yet they don't teach that these days and they have removed that note from subsequent study Bibles!

Jehovah's Witnesses have never and will never deny Jesus Christ as their savior. What they deny is that Jesus is God Almighty himself. He is not.
Jehovah's Witnesses are the only ones known for their zealous door to door preaching work. Do you know who's command they are following? Jesus' at Matthew 28:19,20.
Jehovah's Witnesses remain politically neutral in whatever country they live, under whatever type of government they live, even at the risk of their own lives. Why? Because JESUS said that his followers would be no part of the world just as he was no part of the world.
We ask for forgiveness of our sins on the basis of Christ's sacrifice and pray to Jehovah God in the name of his son, "the only mediator between God and Man."
I'd go on but I think you get the picture

ok, I'm going to try and give you an answer to all these questions that clearly make no sense....Jehovah's Witnesses DO believe in Christ...that is there whole basis of their religion. This is their belief...1. Jehovah is Gods name...2. Christ is Gods son.....
you should REALLY get some of your facts straight before you decide to ramble....

Why are you so obsessed with JWs?
You must have watching Knocking the other night on PBS and are in a real panic that they may be right. Of course, when someone is right, you have to squash it.

--Please tell me your kidding?
--OUR DENIAL is what Christ himself did OVER & OVER & OVER:
(John 10:35-37) “. . . 36 do YOU say to me whom the Father sanctified and dispatched into the world, ‘You blaspheme,’ because I said, I am God’s Son? 37 If I am not doing the works of my Father, do not believe me.”
--WHY did he DENY being the father & PROCLAIMED-- he was "GOD'S SON"--If in fact that denial was not TRUE?
--DO YOU know what denial and admitting is or the difference?
--You mean if you say to your son "LET US BUILD A TREE HOUSE", that 2 of you are not involved AND that only 1 of your duality is really doing the building?
--OR IS IT simply possible that you are saying "you and I are going to build a tree house, LETS DO IT?
--REGULAR MATH: 1+1+1=3
--TRINITY MATH: 1+1+1=1
