A Jehovah's Witness gave an answer in which he indicated Jesus Christ is not God in the flesh.
Was he an exception, or is that actually what JW's preach ad believe?

There you have it. No other religion, apart from Christianity, believes that Christ is God - they all deny this.

ok i exchange into in no way a Witness yet I did learn with them for some time. Witnesses have faith that Jesus Christ is the savior despatched via his father Jehovah. Christ is the Messiah. The separation from trinitarians is that JWs have not got faith that Jesus Christ is a sort that God takes, extremely he's a separate entity, The Son of God.

No, Jesus is clearly not God. Jesus is God's Son, and as mentioned earlier "the firstborn of all creation" meaning he was created by someone. Colossians 1:16, 17.
Jesus came to earth and was killed. Can anyone kill God? Does God die? Habakkuk 1:12 says that God does not die. Regarding Jesus, the Bible says that as a human, he became lower than the angels. Can God become lower than the angels? Of course not. God is never lower than anyone. Yet Jesus was ridiculed, slapped around, spit at, flogged, nailed to a tree and then died....
What do you think? Is Jesus God?

God almighty? No of Course, the bible did not say that God almighty came to earth he sent someone else (John 3:16) , but who one of his sons, which one ? the firstson according to Colossians 1:15-17.
People don´t like to think, "god" is not a proper name but a title, given to several person the first one is the almighty being that created everything, second all his sons are called gods (Psalms 82:6) and all the angels are sons of God according to Job 1:6 and 2:1, and Jesus is the first one (Colossians 1:15-17), he is god but not the almighty (Jehovah)
the majority of people don´t know that all angels are sons of God almighty and gods. but it is in the bible if that is a lie then they are using a book that tell lies.

It is what the Bible preaches over and over and over and over and over.........again.
The trinity is soooooo easily disputed using the Bible and yet people call others non christian for not believing in the trinity.
A woman and man should become one according to the Bible so I can interpret the scriptures that claim Christ and God are one as being one in purpose.
How in the world do people that believe in the trinity explain aways the numerous references in the Bible that straight out say that Jesus is the SON of God????
and then how do those people claim any authority to say that if you dont believe in their interpretation of the Bible then they are not a christian?
You dont have to believe that Jesus is God to be a christian. The Bible clearly states many times that Jesus is the son of God.

What does Christ HIMSELF have to say about this?
What does the rest of GOD's WORD clearly indicate?
