Answer 1

Jehovah's Witnesses preach to others because Jesus told his disciples to do so.

"As you go, preach, saying, ‘The kingdom of the heavens has drawn near." -- Matthew 10:7

"Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you." -- Matthew 28:19,20

True Christians have to preach until the end of days. Jehovah's Witnesses are the only ones who do so.

"And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come." -- Matthew 24:14

"I did not hold back from telling you any of the things that were profitable nor from teaching you publicly and from house to house. " -- Acts 20:20

Jehovah's Witnesses are not loved by many because they are not part of the world.

"If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you. If you were part of the world, the world would be fond of what is its own. Now because you are no part of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on this account the world hates you. " -- John 15:18,19

Jehovah's Witnesses use The New World Translation because its accuracy. It has a modern translation which can easily be read by anybody. First of all it contains God's name, Jehovah, which in most of the Bibles has been removed and replaced by the word "Lord".

Trinity has pagan origins. The Bible says clearly that there is only one true God, Jehovah, that Jesus is his Son and that the holy spirit is God's active force.

"Jehovah our God is one Jehovah." Deuteronomy 6:4

"These are the things that the Amen says, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation by God" -- Revelation 3:14

"Well, as Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the infant in her womb leaped; and Elizabeth was filled with holy spirit" -- Luke 1:41


Next time you will see a Jehovah's Witness don't be afraid to ask him your questions. Jehovah's Witnesses are warm persons who seek only to help others.

Answer 2

Jehovahs Witnesses believe what the Bible teaches. The Trinity is not a Bible teaching. It is a pagan belief that was fused in with apostate Christianity in the 4th Century CE.
We preach to others because Jesus did the same thing and taught his followers to do so also. Before he went to heaven Jesus commanded his disciples to:"Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations.........teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you......."(Mat.28:19,20).
Jesus also warned his followers that they would be hated just as Jesus himself was hated so it comes as no surprise to Jehovahs Witnesses when we are ridiculed and despised.
We do not use a different Bible. The Bible we use has God's name put back in it,and it is a very understandable modern translation.Compare the Bible we use with any other Bible and you will see that it is the same.

Answer 3

The bible is Jehovah's witness, Jesus is his greatest witness Rev.3:14;

Rev.1:1-3; John 3,5,24; Jesus was with God before the word was, as Jesus was the first creation, created in his image. 2Cor.4:3,4; Col.1:15-17;
John 3:16;
If any one does not believe God gave his only begotton son, then what? If that is salvation as God says it is.
Acts 13:30; God raised Jesus from the dead.

JESUS IN HEAVEN AGAIN IS AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD HIS FATHER

Mark 16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received
up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
Acts 2:27-35; Acts 7:55,56; Rom.8:34; Col.3:1; Heb.1:1-13; 1Pet.3:22;

To many witnesses to say what Jesus said. Matt.3:16; 16:16; John 20:17;

WHEN IS THE 2ND COMING OF JESUS AND WHO WILL BE ALIVE?

1Thes.5:1-9,21; To children of the light of times and seasons, alive, Jesus does not come as a thief in the night.
Moses at year 2513, was at Exodus, 3560 years ago at 2007 after Christ, the bible has been circulating in the world 396 years to see the end of the last days and go into the time of the end Matt.24:3,7,14,15 [ Dan.12:1-13; the time of the end, Michael at Rev.12:7-12; gives Satan his short time down under feet of heavenly raised up, to Satan in pit, Rev.20:1-6; no Satan 1000 years.
We can know all but day and hour.
Matt.24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 24:37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Answer 4

Hiya

Next time you see the JW's in your area ask them to show you information on the trinity teaching.

If you don't believe that their Bible is accurate tell them this also , then they will be able to prepare for your specific needs and come with other Bible translations that also prove that the trinity isn't taught in the Bible.

If you have your own Bible , they may even be able to use that to show that the trinity is False.

What Ime trying to say is that Jehovah's Witnesses do NOT need their own Bible to prove the truth.

Ask them next time, you might be surprised.

Answer 5

Ok first of all I was a JW for 10 yrs of my miserable life.From age 4-13.They do believe in the trinity, the father, son, the holy spirit(ghost).They just don't treat it the same.Just as how Jesus was killed on a stake instead of a cross.They have "The New World Translation"Bible because it is a new religon, invented by some dude in the 1920's, James Gardner I think.Same book, just edited to our simple understandings, and exempt of what they don't want us to know.They preach to others to save their soul pretty much.Because like all Christians, they believe their's is the "One true religon"yadda yadda.Everyone hates people who wake them up early on a sunday morning!!!especially to join a cult.This answer and many more have been answered by "The Watchtower"and "Awake"magazines, I just doubt you've read them all...(after the first 50, it starts to get redundant....)If you truly seek more information, visit your local Kindgom Hall, they give free books and S#@! But even though they are the most worthy Christians(being that they acknowledge the pagan origin of Christianity), BUT there is so much they AREN'T telling you.Learn about other religions/teachings...they all say the same thing just differently.Be good to yourself, be good to others. The Bible is just a book of stories, just like any other myth...compare Jesus to Odin and Buddha.Cain and Abel, to Seth and Osiris, They are all the same principles.I suggest you ask for the book, "Mankind's Search for God"One of my favourites.Blessed Be!

Answer 6

Jesus himself told us that he is who?God?No! God's son!(John10:36)"what about the one whom the Father set apart as his very own and sent into the world? Why then do you accuse me of blasphemy because I said, 'I am God's Son' What about God what did God say about who Jesus is?Did he say that Jesus is God in human form? No! When Jesus was baptized God said Jesus is his son!(Matthew3:17)
17And a voice from heaven said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased." There is another interesting statement that Jesus makes considering that that all who are part of the trinity are said to be coequal (John14:28)28"You heard me say, 'I am going away and I am coming back to you.' If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. These are just some of the Scriptures that show the trinity is not a
Bible teaching but a teaching of men.
What is the origin of the Trinity doctrine?
The New Encyclopædia Britannica says: “Neither the word Trinity, nor the explicit doctrine as such, appears in the New Testament, nor did Jesus and his followers intend to contradict the Shema in the Old Testament: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord’ (Deut. 6:4). . . . The doctrine developed gradually over several centuries and through many controversies. . . . By the end of the 4th century . . . the doctrine of the Trinity took substantially the form it has maintained ever since.”-(1976), Micropædia, Vol. X, p. 126.
The New Catholic Encyclopedia states: “The formulation ‘one God in three Persons’ was not solidly established, certainly not fully assimilated into Christian life and its profession of faith, prior to the end of the 4th century. But it is precisely this formulation that has first claim to the title the Trinitarian dogma. Among the Apostolic Fathers, there had been nothing even remotely approaching such a mentality or perspective.”-(1967), Vol. XIV, p. 299.
In The Encyclopedia Americana we read: “Christianity derived from Judaism and Judaism was strictly Unitarian [believing that God is one person]. The road which led from Jerusalem to Nicea was scarcely a straight one. Fourth century Trinitarianism did not reflect accurately early Christian teaching regarding the nature of God; it was, on the contrary, a deviation from this teaching.”-(1956), Vol. XXVII, p. 294L.
According to the Nouveau Dictionnaire Universel, “The Platonic trinity, itself merely a rearrangement of older trinities dating back to earlier peoples, appears to be the rational philosophic trinity of attributes that gave birth to the three hypostases or divine persons taught by the Christian churches. . . . This Greek philosopher’s [Plato, fourth century B.C.E.] conception of the divine trinity . . . can be found in all the ancient [pagan] religions.”-(Paris, 1865-1870), edited by M. Lachâtre, Vol. 2, p. 1467.
John L. McKenzie, S.J., in his Dictionary of the Bible, says: “The trinity of persons within the unity of nature is defined in terms of ‘person’ and ‘nature’ which are G[ree]k philosophical terms; actually the terms do not appear in the Bible. The trinitarian definitions arose as the result of long controversies in which these terms and others such as ‘essence’ and ‘substance’ were erroneously applied to God by some theologians.”-(New York, 1965), p. 899.
The reason we preach to others is because we are told to in the Bible(Matthew28:19) Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:" and the Bible also shows that God's true followers would be preaching about his kingdom in the last days world wide. Jehovahs Witnesses atre the only ones doing so on a global scale (Matthew24:14)14And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.Our Bible translation is the same Bible as all the others I usually quote Verses from other translations, and they say the same as ours does,That statement about us having a different Bible, our own is just a good reason not to listen to us or to discredit us, but people did such things to Jesus in his day too.

Answer 7

Topic: Trinity

Jehovah's Witnesses do not believe in the trinity because at John 1:18 "No one has seen God at any time" which would rule out Jesus being God or God with out his power.

Jesus explained this by saying God exist only as a Spirit creature. -John 4:24

The idea that Jesus is God on Earth (or being a part of a trinity) came from Jesus enemy's rather then himself or any of his followers. - John 8:44

Answer 8

Do you understand what the concept of trinity relly says? ask any pastor and you will see.

you for example are a person, a person you can be student , worker in a supermarket and basketball player, some epople say that God is one person but with three roles or activities.

other say something more ridiculous, that you are your own father , your own son ,and for example your own mother.
is that possible?

that is the definition of the trinity according to Catholic church, when you analyze this is completely absurd.

but why they think that?

it is very simple , we (people) use the word "god" and think that is a proper name, like john or peter, but god is not a proper name but a title.

that title is applied in the bible to several persons.

first to the most powerful being in the universe. for example in Psalms 83:18.

second to the firstborn of that powerful being. (John1:1)the word.

third to the rest of the sons of that powerful being. (Psalms 82:6)

to Satan (2 Corithians 4:4)

Even to humans (Exodus 4:16)

Jesus is the first angel of God all angels are sons of God according to Job 1:6 and 2:1.

and the bible call "gods" to all the children or sons of God alimghty in Psalms 82:6, so if angels are sons of God then they are gods.

if your father is american you are american but that doesn´t mean you are your father or you and your father are equal in power or in age.

Jesus is the first son or firstborn of God almighty he is a god or a divine being of course his father is divine but people think that the only divine being is God almighty

Answer 9

JW's are not the only ones who do not believe in the false doctrine known as "the trinity". Think about this: John told us that no person has seen GOD ever. That means that all those people who saw Jesus DID NOT see GOD. They did, however, see a very special, unique, one of a kind messenger sent to us by His Father. Jesus provided us with further evidence in The Apocryphon of John. The compilers of the bible chose to reject this text and the christian church does not want you to read and understand it because it refutes every single christian doctrine. Wake up! Believe Jesus, not Moses. The god of the o.t. does not reveal one single fruit of the spirit, NOT ONE! Do not call that which is evil good nor that which is good evil.

Answer 10

we have the truth....look how all the Jehovah's witnesses answered your question and used the script to prove the trinity is not a teaching in the bible.we are the only ones doing gods will in the last days
