conundrum: Are you telling me that you believe that Jesus is God? The God of Abraham?
2007-09-17 16:05:09 · update #1
Incorrect. Jesus is our Savior.
Jesus’ sacrificial death bought all of Adam’s dying children. In a sense, Christ became the father of the human race by virtue of his purchase. He is the new Adam and empowered to give life to all of his offspring, provided that they have faith in him and obey him as Lord.
The vast majority of Adam’s offspring will be resurrected onto earth after the war of Armageddon sweeps this present evil system into oblivion. Their future life prospects will be determined by their course of life after their resurrection.
However, Revelation reveals that a “great crowd” of people will survive Armageddon due to their washing their robes in the blood of the Lamb – meaning, of course, that they are counted worthy of salvation because of having faith in Christ and acting upon that faith.
There are two aspects to the ransom.
It is Jehovah’s purpose to gather both a heavenly and earthly group. Since the ransom price that Christ paid bought the entire human race from sin and death, Jehovah also wills that a chosen few from among mankind should become spiritual sons in order to rule with Christ in heaven. In their case the ransom is applied in a different manner. Whereas, the surviving great crowd is considered righteous, they are not “declared righteous.”
What's the difference?
Being “declared righteous” means that God judges them to be sinless. God applies Christ’s sacrifice to them in a way that allows God to credit them with perfection – even though they are sinful. Being declared sinless allows God to transform sinful humans into immortal spirits upon their resurrection.
So, while the salvation of the great crowd comes about because of their faith in Christ too, it is God’s purpose to use the anointed as ministers to his other sheep.

Jehovah's Witnesses do not reject Jesus as savior. The plan of salvation is that found in scripture.

Nina, you thinking perhaps of Buddhist or some other Religion. Jehovah's Witnesses have Never denied Jesus.When Jesus was born, another well-known event took place. An angel appeared to shepherds who were watching their flocks in a field and said: “Look! I am declaring to you good news of a great joy that all the people will have, because there was born to you today a Savior, who is Christ the Lord, in David’s city. And this is a sign for you: you will find an infant bound in cloth bands and lying in a manger.” Then a multitude of other angels joined this first one, praising God and saying: “Glory in the heights above to God, and upon earth peace among men of goodwill.”—Luke 2:8-14
Where in that statement do you see JW's denying Jesus since they Qoute Jesus a Lot?
As For The Plan For Salvation In The Bible..I will let you search for that one...

Questions: Do the JWs have self belief there is one plan of salvation for the one hundred forty four,000 and a various plan of salvation for the great crowd? Or is there purely one way of salvation for all? One salvation for all with diverse rewards. Mankind is stored from the 1st dying via Jesus Christ. yet a inheritor in Christ isn't rewarded as a joint-inheritor until they die a dying like Christ. "...and if little ones, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we go through with him, that we'd be additionally glorified with him." A inheritor in Christ who fails to alter right into a joint-inheritor loses the reward no longer the salvation.

1 Timothy 2:4

We must some to a accurate knowledge of the truth, by knowing the only true God and Jesus Christ. We also accept Jesus and God Almighty as our savior.

Boy have you been lied to.
Jehovah's Witnesses have not rejected Jesus as our Savior.
Jehovah's Witnesses are the only religion that actually accepts that Jesus the Son of God died for us.
Trinitarians teach that God died for them, which could never happen.
Therefore they have no salvation.
Please get your facts straight.

The JW Jesus is not the Jesus of the bible. He is the same as Michael the archangel, or Appolyon the angel from the pit...according to them,anyway.
I'm not sure who they worship, anymore. The more i find out, the stranger they seem.
