Good question
@Peterlag …..some here seem to think that a legally registered printing facility (“The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society”) which prints Bibles and Bible literature for free distribution, is somehow a religious body responsible for the beliefs of Jehovah’s Witnesses.
The “Watchtower” magazine is one of the study tools we use at our Christian meetings but the content is written by Jehovah’s Witnesses…..our meetings are interactive and an opportunity for all to share additional information they may have gleaned from personal research, so that all in attendance can benefit.
The ”watchtower“ in Bible times was the place where guards were stationed on the walls of Jerusalem to warn of approaching danger…..the “watchman” had to alert the city if any activity was detected that could pose a threat, or that needed attention, so that all would be in a prepared state if the need arose…..if it proved to be a false alarm, then all went back to business as usual.…but the “watchman“ had done his job, demonstrating that he was doing what he was assigned to do.…“Keep on the watch”. (Matt 24:42-44)
“Jehovah’s Witnesses” OTOH, are a legally registered religious body who are the teachers of those who decide to become ”Witnesses for Jehovah”, (the God and Father of Jesus Christ, for whom he was a “faithful witness”. Rev 3:14). It is a decision freely made after careful Bible study, and a desire to commit themselves publicly by water baptism to become disciples of Christ Jesus, in following all his teaching, and in trying their best to imitate his example In their lives.
We can never seem to get that across to the blind haters, for reasons known only to themselves.
1) you never have had "christian" meetings.
Christian have pillars of the faith.
The main pillar is the deity of Jesus.
Kick out that foundation, and destroy the faith.
So no, none of you are " Christian"
2) JEHOVAH testifies of the SON.
So I can not say watchtower adherents of a cult are "Jehovas witness"
You guys are far far far from Jehovah and Jesus.
You are watchtower.
I am Jehovas witness.
I testify of WHO JESUS IS.
I AM JEHOVAS WITNESS.
*****let me demonstrate.******
Jesus as God
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made
He created all things
The Father calls Him God
6 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom
Here is the creator at the beginning
Gen
1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Jehovah Just witnessed VIVIDLY WHO JESUS IS.
YOU are NOT Jehovahs witness by any stretch of the imagination.
Every time you call yourself that, you slap God almighty in the face.
You walk up to him and slap him trying to destroy HIS WITNESS.
What a sad pit of your organization.
