Is the Jehovah's Witness religion Christian?
by Matt Slick

The answer to the question is, "No. It is not Christian." Like all non-Christian cults, the Jehovah's Witness' organization distorts the essential doctrines of Christianity. It denies the deity of Christ, His physical resurrection, and salvation by grace. These make it non-Christian. In addition, to support its erring doctrines, the Watchtower organization (which is the author and teacher of all official Jehovah's Witness' theology) has altered the Bible to make it agree with its changing and non-Christian teachings.

Typical with cults that use the Bible to support its position is a host of interpretive errors:

1) Taking verses out of their immediate context.
2) Refusing to read verses in the entire biblical context.
3) Inserting their theological presuppositions into the text.
4) Altering the Biblical text to suit their needs.
5) Latching onto one verse to interpret a host of others.
6) Changing the meanings of words.
7) Proclaiming some passages to be figurative when they contradict their doctrines.
8.) Adding to the Word of God.

Additionally, the Jehovah's Witness' organization requires of its member's regular weekly attendance at their "Bible Study" meetings where they are repeatedly indoctrinated with anti-Christian teachings. This is done by reading the Watchtower magazine, following along with what it says, reading the questions it asks, and reciting the answers it gives. In other words, the Watchtower Organization carefully trains its members to let the Organization do their thinking for them. For confirmation of this, please read Does the Watchtower organization control the JW's thinking?

The Witnesses are told they will be persecuted when they go door-to-door teaching their doctrines. They are further told that this is simply the enemy fighting against God's organization because they are in "the truth." So, when someone disagrees with them, they are conditioned to reflect on what the Watchtower has told them. They then feel confirmed in being in God's true organization on earth (like all cults claim). They are strongly encouraged to have friends and acquaintances that are only JW's, thereby keeping outside examination to a minimum. They are told to shun those who leave their group, for in this way there is no way to see why someone has left and no way to find out that they are in error from those who have found the truth in Christ. They are conditioned to shy away from any real biblically knowledgeable person. An example of this is frequently found on the Internet. I was once banned from a Jehovah's Witness' chat room after I not only answered their objections to the Trinity and deity of Christ but also challenged them in return. Subsequently, my name was passed around to all other Jehovah's Witness' rooms where I was banned from them as well. This is a frequent occurrence on the Internet where the Jehovah's Witnesses are alive and well. It is obvious that critical examination of their doctrines is not encouraged by the Watchtower Organization.

The Jehovah's Witnesses consider themselves to be Christians because they believe they are serving the true and living God. Like many cults, they think they are the only true church on earth. Yet, they deny the Trinity, the deity of Christ, the personhood of the Holy Spirit, Jesus' physical resurrection, and salvation by grace through faith.

The Jehovah's Witnesses are discouraged from looking into Jehovah's Witness' history or old Watchtower literature which is replete with contradictions, altered doctrines, and false prophecies. Instead, they are indoctrinated repeatedly against basic Christian doctrines (Trinity, deity of Christ, etc.,) and into the notion that they alone are the true servants of God and that all others are either in "Christendom" or simply unbelievers.

Primarily, the Jehovah's Witness' organization is a mind-control organization that uses its people to pass out literature and send in "donations" to the headquarters in Brooklyn, New York.

"Thus the Bible is an organizational book and belongs to the Christian congregation as an organization and not to individuals, regardless of how sincerely they may believe that they can interpret the Bible."(The Watchtower, Oct. 1, 1967, p. 587.)

Conclusion
The Watchtower organization of the Jehovah's Witnesses is a non-Christian organization that uses its people to promulgate false doctrines, collects "contributions" for distribution of a multitudinous amount of literature, and expands its grip into the lives of its members and their families.

It is a non-Christian cult.

Isaac was Abraham's only begotten son (Heb 11:17. James2:21) if we called Isaac "only begotten son" of Abraham ,does it mean that Isaac is not Abraham's son?

Jesus is God's only begotten son (John 3:16),does it mean that Jesus is not Jehovah's son in the real sense of the word "son"?John5:26

** Jesus own words about himself in heaven and earth (Matt16;13-17. Rev3:12,14,21.John20:17,30,31.
John10:34-36) is a living testimony he is the son of God.
Does God have a God?

1cor11:3. Rom15:6. Eph1:3,17. Eph3:14. 1cor8:4-7 were written after Jesus went to heaven & still in heaven. These scriptures would not be written by Jehovah's inspiration if it wasn't true .

Can you also explain Isa 9:6: Unto us a son is born... His name shall be called MIGHTY GOD, ETERNAL FATHER...

What about Isa 7:14: a virgin shall give birth to a son and his name shall be called Emmanuel (God with us)

There is no dispute about that, if you can defend the Catholic Church with all their idols please go ahead and make your defense. JWs print magazines to show the world where and how the Catholics have erred!

Oh, when the tables turn on you, you claim you are only showing where the Catholic Church erred. But when such is done to you, you claim it is an attack.

I hate the Catholic Church. But for you guys to try to paint a picture that you are holy simply because people expose you (which you call attack) is the height of hypocrisy. That is to say the Catholic Church too is holy because you expose them.

Has nothing to do with equality with Jehovah .

Jesus is called an apostle just as Peter, does that make them equal ?

Father and Son ... The Gap will forever be there

The verse says MANIFESTED IN THE FLESH not WAS IN THE FLESH

God WAS ... Past.

2) Humans Kill God ?

Diverting from the main point....

Jesus is a mighty God, how many God do you have? Answer that first...

The main focus is the meaning of Apostle if Jesus and Peter were both called an Apostle, are they not in essence APOSTLE?

Now, if both Jesus and Jehovah are mighty God, are they both not God? Then how many God do you have

Check the meaning of God too , it can mean someone with authority or who influences others . So it doesn't alway mean the supreme being

Context of supreme being, One God , Jehovah

The subject matter is, "Is Jesus a God? I said yes and gave biblical portions I think prove that.

Whether "mighty God" or "almighty God" the most important thing is that the Bible said he is God.

Mary gave birth to a God in a flesh. This means he has all the attributes of a man.

Yes, flesh can die but you can't kill a spirit.

That is the problem with you Jehovah Witnesses, interpreting the bible to suit yourself. Nobody is claiming that Jesus is the supreme being. He is a God.

Just like in ancient Greek, there were plethora of gods but Zeus was their supreme head.

Jesus is a deity and also the Holy Spirit. That is what Trinity is all about.

You guys argue like kids, no wonder a JW can never subject himself to a debate.

Trinity died a natural death since Christ isn't the supreme God.
