The LORD lives! Blessed be my Rock! Let the God of my salvation be exalted. Psalm 18:46
Who is this God and Lord? Who is this God of salvation?
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. John 14:6
Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.John 8:24
Do you see you will die in your sins if your salvation is not in Jesus. If you say Jesus is not God then your salvation is in a creation of God and not God Himself. Please do not put your salvation in creation. Put your salvation in God Himself.
The Bible says: Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. If this is so how could He of been created? This is saying Jesus Christ has always been. I do not wish to offend anyone. I just love you enough to tell you the truth.

The Jehovah Witness,s are making the same error that most of the other religions are making. They have a faith based on the works that they do. It is not of works but by grace lest any man should boast.

Please listen! It is all God and it is all Grace!

Funny that.
How come God and Jesus where not the same until Constantine the Great glued them together some 325 years after the death of Jesus.
The JW's know the truth as do the Jews & Muslims why are the so called Christians the only ones who twist the bible to suit a man made false doctrine ?

Jehovah's Witness are truly "Watchtowerites." the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society assumes a great deal, which includes being God's "seen theocratic corporation" and the 'committed and discreet slave" coaching actual Christian doctrine. the only subject is that the Watchtower form of doctrine isn't biblical doctrine. it fairly is heavily filtered doctrine by Watchtower interpretations mixed with selective questions and scripture costs. of direction, the Jehovah's Witnesses will strongly disagree with this fact. they say that they study and learn their Bibles and purely use the Watchtower literature as a handbook to know-how God's be conscious. even nevertheless it fairly is this very admission which condemns them with the aid of fact their doctrines are no longer got here upon interior the Bible. The information is got here upon, have faith it or no longer, interior the Watchtower's very own writings. evaluate this quote from The Watchtower magazine, August 15, 1981 that asserts: "on occasion, there have arisen from between the ranks of Jehovah's human beings those, who, like the unique devil, have observed an self reliant, faultfinding techniques-set...they say that it fairly is sufficient to study the Bible solely, the two on my own or in small communities at domicile. yet, surprisingly, by such 'Bible examining,' they have reverted stunning returned to the apostate doctrines that commentaries by Christendom's clergy have been coaching a hundred years in the past..."4 Did you get that? in case you study the Bible by itself, you will develop right into a Trinitarian considering it fairly is strictly what the Watchtower is bearing on right here while it says "apostate doctrines." In different words, in case you study the Bible on my own, you will no longer arrive at Watchtower doctrines. it truly is an stunning admission by the Watchtower corporation. it fairly is obvious, Jehovah's Witnesses don't get their teachings from the Bible, yet from the Watchtower literature.

My belief is the JHVH Witnesses and (Islam) Muslims are the ONLY 2 that got it 100% correct. Christ Jesus is the begotten son and NOT God Almighty. Every religion that says Jesus is God himself is WRONG and so fall short of giving God Almighty the complete 100% "reverence" that belongs to HIM.
This is what a Muslim said in one of his answer, "If a person believes that Jesus (upon him peace) is a God then he was given birth to. How can a God be given birth to? This is the characteristic of a human being, right?"
I agree, God Almighty cannot be a human. He had no beginning and he will have no end. God is the Almighty, stronger than the sun he created; the Supreme of the Universe! What part of that can't you guys understand? No matter what are your confused thinking; no one can lessen JHVH God to what He is..........ALMIGHTY.

For all true Christians, Jehovah provides through his Son deliverance from the present wicked system of things as well as salvation from bondage to sin and death. For a great crowd of faithful servants of Jehovah living during “the last days,” salvation will include preservation through the great tribulation.


Salvation is a gift from God given to those who put faith in the sin-atoning value of the sacrifice of his Son.)

John 3:16-17 - For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, in order that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life. For God sent forth his Son into the world, not for him to judge the world, but for the world to be saved through him. He that exercises faith in him is not to be judged. He that does not exercise faith has been judged already, because he has not exercised faith in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.

1 Timothy 2:5, 6 - For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, a man, Christ Jesus, who gave himself a corresponding ransom for all—[this is] what is to be witnessed to at its own particular times.

Colossians 1:13, 14 - He delivered us from the authority of the darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of his love, by means of whom we have our release by ransom, the forgiveness of our sins.

John 10:17, 18 - This is why the Father loves me, because I surrender my soul, in order that I may receive it again. No man has taken it away from me, but I surrender it of my own initiative. I have authority to surrender it, and I have authority to receive it again. The commandment on this I received from my Father.”

Our Salvation is by Jehovah God who sent His only-begotten Son Jesus as a Ransom for us. We owe our salvation to both Jehovah God for making the ransom possible and Jesus for willingly becoming the ransom...

Journey Well...

Thankyou for telling the JW's how you feel, your right your salvation is not in an organization but only in Jesus Christ.

Doesn't the Bible make it clear that salvation is possible through Jesus' ransom sacrifice? Because of this, we believe that salvation is through Jesus, on the basis of his ransom.

Col. 1:15, 16, RS: “He [Jesus Christ] is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of all creation; for in him all things were created, in heaven and on earth.” In what sense is Jesus Christ “the first-born of all creation”? (1) Trinitarians say that “first-born” here means prime, most excellent, most distinguished; thus Christ would be understood to be, not part of creation, but the most distinguished in relation to those who were created. If that is so, and if the Trinity doctrine is true, why are the Father and the holy spirit not also said to be the firstborn of all creation? But the Bible applies this expression only to the Son. According to the customary meaning of “firstborn,” it indicates that Jesus is the eldest in Jehovah’s family of sons. (2) Before Colossians 1:15, the expression “the firstborn of” occurs upwards of 30 times in the Bible, and in each instance that it is applied to living creatures the same meaning applies—the firstborn is part of the group. “The firstborn of Israel” is one of the sons of Israel; “the firstborn of Pharaoh” is one of Pharaoh’s family; “the firstborn of beast” are themselves animals. What, then, causes some to ascribe a different meaning to it at Colossians 1:15? Is it Bible usage or is it a belief to which they already hold and for which they seek proof? (3) Does Colossians 1:16, 17 (RS) exclude Jesus from having been created, when it says “in him all things were created . . . all things were created through him and for him”? The Greek word here rendered “all things” is pan´ta, an inflected form of pas. At Luke 13:2, RS renders this “all . . . other”; JB reads “any other”; NE says “anyone else.” (See also Luke 21:29 in NE and Philippians 2:21 in JB.) In harmony with everything else that the Bible says regarding the Son, NW assigns the same meaning to pan´ta at Colossians 1:16, 17 so that it reads, in part, “by means of him all other things were created . . . All other things have been created through him and for him.” Thus he is shown to be a created being, part of the creation produced by God.

Rev. 1:1; 3:14, RS: “The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him . . . ‘And to the angel of the church in La-odicea write: “The words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning [Greek, ar·khe´] of God’s creation.”’” (KJ, Dy, CC, and NW, as well as others, read similarly.) Is that rendering correct? Some take the view that what is meant is that the Son was ‘the beginner of God’s creation,’ that he was its ‘ultimate source.’ But Liddell and Scott’s Greek-English Lexicon lists “beginning” as its first meaning of ar·khe´. (Oxford, 1968, p. 252) The logical conclusion is that the one being quoted at Revelation 3:14 is a creation, the first of God’s creations, that he had a beginning. Compare Proverbs 8:22, where, as many Bible commentators agree, the Son is referred to as wisdom personified. According to RS, NE, and JB, the one there speaking is said to be “created.”)

Prophetically, with reference to the Messiah, Micah 5:2 (KJ) says his “goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.” Dy reads: “his going forth is from the beginning, from the days of eternity.” Does that make him the same as God? It is noteworthy that, instead of saying “days of eternity,” RS renders the Hebrew as “ancient days”; JB, “days of old”; NW, “days of time indefinite.” Viewed in the light of Revelation 3:14, discussed above, Micah 5:2 does not prove that Jesus was without a beginning.

Jehovah's Witnesses are Christians who recognize God and Christ as their saviors.

Adherents of the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses believe everything the Bible teaches about Jesus, and believe that the Bible is the only inspired infallible Word of God.

Jehovah's Witnesses teach that no salvation occurs without Christ, that accepting Christ's sacrifice is a requirement for true worship, that every prayer must acknowledge Christ, that Christ is the King of God's Kingdom, that Christ is the head of the Christian congregation, that Christ is immortal and above every creature, even that Christ was the 'master worker' in creating the universe!

Jehovah's Witnesses believe that Jesus the Son was created by God the Father, and that as a distinct person Jesus serves as God's primary agent. Jehovah's Witnesses believe that Jesus is much more blessed and powerful than any mere angel, but they also believe that the terms "archangel" and "angel" are not inappropriately applied to Jesus (see 1 Thess 4:16).

There are dozens of Scriptures which plainly show that Jesus is lesser than (and subject to) Almighty Jehovah God the Father. Obviously, all of the authority which Jesus received was delegated to him by Almighty Jehovah (God the Father). Caps are added to some citations below.

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

(Matthew 28:18) And [the resurrected] Jesus approached and spoke to them, saying: “All authority has been GIVEN me in heaven and on the earth.

(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

(Daniel 7:14) And to him there WERE GIVEN rulership and dignity and kingdom

(Matthew 11:27) All things HAVE BEEN DELIVERED TO ME by my Father, and no one fully knows the Son but the Father, neither does anyone fully know the Father but the Son and anyone to whom the Son is willing to reveal him.

(Philippians 2:9) For this very reason also GOD EXALTED HIM to a superior position

(1 Peter 3:22) [Jesus] went his way to heaven; and angels and authorities and powers WERE MADE SUBJECT to him.

(1 Corinthians 15:25) For [Jesus] must rule as king until GOD HAS PUT all enemies under his feet.

(Psalm 110:1) The utterance of Jehovah to my Lord [Jesus] is: “Sit... Until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet.”


Incidentally, where is Jesus' exhalted position? It is NOT replacing Jehovah God, because Jesus remains humbly at Jehovah's right hand.

(Psalm 110:1) The utterance of Jehovah to my Lord is: “Sit at my right hand Until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet.”

(Ephesians 1:19-20) the mightiness of [God's] strength, with which he has operated in the case of the Christ when he raised him up from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places

(Acts 7:55,56) [Stephen], being full of holy spirit, gazed into heaven and caught sight of God’s glory and of Jesus standing at God’s right hand, and he said: “Look! I behold the heavens opened up and the Son of man standing at God’s right hand.”

(Matthew 26:64) Jesus said to him: “...From henceforth you will see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of power

(Romans 8:34) Christ Jesus is the one who died, yes, rather the one who was raised up from the dead, who is on the right hand of God

(Colossians 3:1) Christ is seated at the right hand of God.

(Hebrews 1:3) [Jesus] sat down on the right hand of the Majesty in lofty places.

(Hebrews 8:1) Now as to the things being discussed this is the main point: We have such a high priest as this, and he has sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,

(Hebrews 10:12) But this man [Jesus] offered one sacrifice for sins perpetually and sat down at the right hand of God,

(Hebrews 12:2) Look intently at the Chief Agent and Perfecter of our faith, Jesus. ...he endured a torture stake, despising shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

(1 Peter 3:22) He [Jesus] is at God’s right hand, for he went his way to heaven
