In John 8:58, Jesus tells the Pharisees, "Before Abraham was, I am."
He claimed to be the "I AM" of Exodus 3:14, which is God Almighty.

My broda,u certainly re right with those quotations,but even simple english defy ur interpretation,note dat there re 2 "i ams" in exodus3:14,
Of cos d first has no connection 2 d revealed name(second "I AM),if e were usin pidgin e could as well av said,i b d "I AM".
Same with john 8:58,it was just part of a statement,other translations used "i av been",or "i existed".which still delivers d same message of his pre-existence
Bros,b4 i became a witness,i was a talented contructive argumentator,with seeming evidence n quotations,but believe me.they av d truth,bible translation on its
Own has derailed many.imagine sum1 d clergy wu hide d bible frm common ppl 4 many centuries,claimin its message is nt 4 general ownership,but sum(like William tyndale,john wycliff) discoverin they av concealed d truth frm d common ppl n taught dem lies nt found in d bible den decides to translate d bible to a common lang n make it available to all,only to b burned alive by d same clergy.after many centuries n press frm many,d clergy reluctantly agrees to translate d bible,tell me, wat do u think wuld influence d translation wrk,a desire to share d truth or an attempt to maintain d doctrinal status quo.considerin u n i av no access nor understand d original languages.that is y Jehovah's witnesses seem nt to make sense to u sumtimes,because whr ur even quotin frm had been doctored by d powers dat b( translators wrkin 4 d clergy).do u knw jehovah's witnesses av printed n available a wrd 4 wrd translation of d bible,with d original lang on one side n d translation with reference on d other side.bringin d truth to u undiluted,never doctored,never twisted to meet our doctrines.if they do nt undstd,they simply say so in our publications.talk abt humility

deeptesting:
They have their internal issues like every other religious body. They are dogged and fanatical about their doctrines even though majority of them do not practice what they preach. their beliefs and doctrine is narrow minded.

For instance they believe JW is the only true religion and pretty sure if God`s Kingdom should come today only the 8 Million JWs in the world as mentioned by the OP if found not wanting will inherit the earth out of which the remnants of the 144,000 who will rule as kings and priest with Christ will be taken from. Now, look around the world and think of other fantastic people who belongs to other religious body,what will be their fate?

Would they be condemn to destruction? Or they will be assimilated and then re-thought the doctrine of the JWs?

yea,seriously ur right...but think of it,b4 God destroyed sodom,Canaan,Noah's contemporaries,Jerusalem, d house of Saul,etc ul notice a similarity in d way he did it
1.He identified himself with a single group(b it a nation,a family or a group) to whc he reels out ito information of His requirement 4 approval and survival,individuals Wu so wish to survive had to join His approved group n not try to gain his approval independently (eg Jewish proselyte s,d wives of noah'sons,d harlot of Canaan)etc
2.there was never a case of hasty generalization (He takes note of individual in good standing in a continent of evil doers)however,He once saved just 8 souls out of d entire human race,so 8million z a lump.....
But does that mean we judge or condemn U as unfit 4 survival,Nope!!!! Only God decides,while we humbly n modestly acknowledge our failings,(we sin too)we bring to ur notice God's achievable requirements 4 survival.we love U n can't stop coming.

Yea @ op said,well said
Just to add,wen U minus ur Creator from ur life,gravitation starts working

A cab driver picked a lady who was a talkative. He didn't want to engage in conversation, so he pretended to be deaf & dumb

He pointed to his mouth and ears to indicate that he could neither speak nor hear. After she alighted, he pointed to the meter so that she could see how much she owed.

She paid him and walked off. Then she realized that he could not have been a deaf mute. How did she know?

au dd e hear whr I was goin n hear dat iI was talking b4 givin sign of deafness
