    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    I am not familiar with all the details regarding the Watchtower. However "false teachers" were foretold by Peter and elaborated by Paul, that was not specific to such a narrow group as the JW, but rather as being a general "falling away" of "great apostacy" for "believing a lie" resulting in...

    Same ol' Priests and Pharisees :(

    Jesus did indeed come the first time, and then said He would come again. But He said He would come "soon" and outlined all that "must shortly take place" speaking to and of that generation that was living at the time. But not seeing Jesus' return as they expected to see it, even though He said...

    In regard to what Jesus said to Peter, it appears that the Apostle John's presumption is in error.

    Then your accusation is against Jesus Himself, who even publicly announced it: And the high priest stood up in the midst and asked Jesus, saying, “Do You answer nothing? What is it these men testify against You?” 61 But He kept silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him...

    Same ol' Priests and Pharisees :(

    I do understand. Nevertheless, the church teaches that Jesus "is delaying His coming", rather than what He said would be "soon" and "must shortly take place", even clearly stating that they personally would witness His coming, saying to them "[you] will see the Son of Man sitting at the right...

    Same ol' Priests and Pharisees :(

    That is not at all what the parable or passage is about. Check it out: Matthew 45:36-51

    Almighty God and Planet Earth

    I too have spoken out against Keraz, but your justification here is greatly flawed. Even John the Baptist whom Jesus said was the greatest of those born of women, was not "anointed" by those who sat in Moses' seat. More importantly, Keraz is promoting false doctrine--of which Jesus, Peter, and...

    Same ol' Priests and Pharisees :(

    Can you or do you also say the Church does not teach, "My master is delaying his coming?" Matthew 24:48 Because they do.

    In regard to what Jesus said to Peter, it appears that the Apostle John's presumption is in error.

    You're rambling again. Jesus did not mean for His identity to be a complete secret: Therefore, when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John 2 (though Jesus Himself did not baptize, but His disciples), 3 He left Judea and departed again...

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    The image that God created man in was of a man and a woman, that is, a man, and a women taken out of the man, whom were to become one again. That too was and is the image of the what and why of God's creation, wherein, as it is written: “Enlarge the place of your tent, And let them stretch out...

    I take it from both sides.

    No Bob--"the words are spirit." John 6:63

    In regard to what Jesus said to Peter, it appears that the Apostle John's presumption is in error.

    Yes, you were rambling, ranting. You also have the wrong guy. Paul was not the anti-Christ, just another nearly hopeless fellow Jesus chose to carry perhaps the harder burden than Peter--that of the gentiles; which was not one nation through the desert or the mop up of Israel, but every nation...

    "All things are lawful..."

    If that is your focus...you are indeed missing the point. The point of any worldly law of God (food or otherwise) is not worldly, but heavenly. These things do not point to words or their translations, or the practices of men, but point to that narrow path of cleanliness in Christ who is...

    Same ol' Priests and Pharisees :(

    Yes, and yet Peter said that it would in fact happen: 2 Peter 2:1 But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift...

    Are Jehovah's witnesses real Christians?

    That is quite a confession. Quite telling--finally.

    I take it from both sides.

    Saying "No" to the Spirit is the same as saying "Yes" to the flesh.

    "All things are lawful..."

    Certainly there have been false teachings. But the answer and solution are not to be found in the use of language--that language that God intentionally confounded at Babel. It is in the Spirit: Spirit and truth. But, putting that aside...this is a bigger issue, not that "all things are lawful"...

    Two Narratives: The Truth and The Lie.

    The issue still remains: The forces of anti-Christ were already at work during the startup of the Church, and great apostacy and delusion of our beliefs were foretold for our time. But who has questioned what has been believed since that time? No one? Were Jesus, Peter, and Paul wrong to...

    "All things are lawful..."

    That, however, misses the point of the problem with idols. That point being that it is against God--a sin against God; and although there is no power in such that one should be fearful, the danger is in leading others to believe what is not true. Which if it had been stated as "common", it...

    Almighty God and Planet Earth

    No, you don't need to respond, just as you don't need to hear or see. But yes, we all will answer to God. But the question remains: Why have you left out and not considered what was also foretold of false teachers, the believing of many lies, delusions, and great apostacy, as if your...

    "Salvation" is the gift of Eternal Life - it's FOREVER.

    It is a shame (or perhaps I should say, sham), that these road signs given to direct future generations as pointing to Christ and God have been destroyed by religious practices and misunderstanding and turned into idol worship--standing in the holy place.
