[size=14pt]Does the Watchtower say the Bible teaches the Trinity?[/size] by Matt Slick The Watchtower organization claims to be the Faithful and Discreet Slave spoken of in Matthew 24:45. "We all need help to understand the Bible, and we cannot find the Scriptural guidance we need outside the 'faithful and discreet slave' organization," (Watchtower, Feb. 15, 1981). (See the quote in context). "All who want to understand the Bible should appreciate that the 'greatly diversified wisdom of God' can become known only through Jehovah's channel of communication, the faithful and discreet slave," (Watchtower, Oct. 1, 1994, p. eight). This Watchtower organization, the faithful and discreet slave, claims to be the means by which God communicates His truth to us in this world. Therefore, by deduction what the Watchtower says is truth. Alright, let's take a look at one quote from the Watchtower. "From time to time, there have arisen from among the ranks of Jehovah's people those, who, like the original Satan, have adopted an independent, faultfinding attitude . . . They say that it is sufficient to read the Bible exclusively, either alone or in small groups at home. But, strangely, through such 'Bible reading,' they have reverted right back to the apostate doctrines that commentaries by Christendom's clergy were teaching 100 years ago . . . ," (Watchtower, Aug. 15, 1981, p. 29). (See the quote in context). The Watchtower says that the Trinity, the deity of Christ, and the physical resurrection of Christ are all false doctrines. Yet, the Watchtower says that if you read the Bible by itself, you will end up believing these doctrines. In other words, if you read the Bible by itself, then you will become a Trinitarian--believe that Jesus is God and believe that Jesus rose from the dead physically. Why is that? Could it be because the Bible teaches these things? So I ask the Jehovah's Witnesses, what is it in the Bible that would lead someone to this conclusion? Again, what is in the Bible that reading it by itself would lead you to believe in the Trinity, the deity of Christ, and His physical resurrection? This quote from the Watchtower is proof that it is teaching contrary to the natural reading of the Bible and that it is controlling the beliefs of those who follow it. https://carm.org/does-watchtower-say-bible-teaches-trinity |

He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. |
dolphinheart:All scripture I quote is copied and pasted from the bible, but your false accusation is in line with your lyiing tongue. You cannot get out of your lies by telling more lies. dolphin, Anas talked about verses i posted in this thread: Anas09:and you dolphin replied about those scriptures i posted: dolphinheart:Anas09 spoke off this thread, saying why didn't anyone answer johnw74 on the scriptures he quoted from the beginning of this thread, and you replied: "I did ask him some questions on the scriptures he quoted, but he refuses to answer" when I said you didn't and you should post the quotes to prove it, you then came up with, you were talking about a post of 4 months ago a lie is needed to cover up a lie, then another and another, that's how liars became entrenched in lies like i have said to you many times, when you speak a lie you are speaking naturally and you glory in lying, doing it time and time again Joh_8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do.

MuttleyLaff:bull and confusion to the end don't slam that door again |
full of bull to the last and you cannot admit your contradictions first you want to discuss: God being an angel then you say: Angels are created beings who never create anything duh, that means that God is not an Angel but you can't see it MuttleyLaff:yeah get out of here, and don't slam the door behind you |
Col 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: absolutely everything was created By God the Word-Jesus Christ absolutely everything, of course includes Michael and lucifer and all the Angels God is the creator, not an angel, and not one of the chief Angels, but God is the creator, that's what the bible says Joh 1:3 All things were made [size=14pt]by him[/size];(Jesus Christ) and without him was not any thing made that was made. Col 1:16 For [size=14pt]by him[/size](Jesus Christ) were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth .... Gen 1:1 In the beginning [size=14pt]God[/size] created the heaven and the earth. |
MuttleyLaff:@red, well you now want to debate that God is an Angel and then you say in the same post: Angels are created beings who never create anything you are constantly all over the place and with contradictions like a drunkard swaying to and throw |
Rev 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: God gave Jesus Christ revelation Jesus sent it by His Angel to John. John turned to see who was speaking to Him, and the angel that he saw was one like unto the Son of man not the Son of man, but one like Him the Angel of the Lord is the angel of the Lord Jesus Christ .... the Word is God the Angel of the Lord is the angel of the Lord Yahovah .... Yahovah is God to those who believe the Bible that is |
MuttleyLaff:i mean exactly what i said There is no need for all these all over place scriptures now.scriptures showing that Jesus Christ is not an Angel but is God are not all over the place scriptures just because you don't believe them and are relevant to the OP An angel from among the angelscommon ground among non believers let me tell you again, the Angel of God is an Angel and an Angel never created anything You can only know if am all over place or not, MuttleyLaff: You're becoming like a broken record,@red, Haha when you accuse which is often, you are actually talking about yourself |
MuttleyLaff:@red, Haha when you are accusing, you are actually talking about yourself please do share; tell us who you think is the Angel of the Lord? show us this writhe at ![]() |
MuttleyLaff:you, like dolphin are foreign to the truth, you don't believe these verses, because they go against your belief that Jesus Christ is an Angel: Dan 10:13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, [size=14pt]one of[/size] the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia. Col 2:10 And ye are complete in him, which is [size=14pt]the head of all[/size] principality and power: Michael is [size=14pt]one of[/size] the chief Princes Jesus Christ is [size=14pt]the head of all[/size] principality and power God the Word-the Lord Jesus Christ, created everything that was created Joh 1:1 ....and the Word was God. Joh 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. God is the creator Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. [size=14pt]An Angel has never created anything[/size] ^^^ although you did recently agree with me on that but you also said that the Father called an Angel My son so even you don't know what you believe you are all over the place |
dolphinheart:dolphin, Anas talked about verses i posted in this thread: Anas09:and you dolphin replied: dolphinheart:and now you bring up a post of 4 months ago, and say that's what you were talking about like i have said to you many times, when you speak a lie you are speaking naturally and you glory in lying, doing it time and time again Joh_8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. |
muttley, just a couple of posts from this short page that you didn't reply too: https://www.nairaland.com/1491321/satan-default-angel-prove-it/8#39569610 https://www.nairaland.com/1491321/satan-default-angel-prove-it/8#39569753 MuttleyLaff:you don't know who the Angel of the lord is and it's sending you |
anyone who is reading this thread can see that MuttleyLaff is not answering anything but as i have said before he is just saying a lot of bull again and again he doesn't know who the Angel of the Lord is and because no one will tell him, he says you don't know who the Angel of the Lord is, duh mutt |
dolphinheart:u said you questioned me on this thread matter and i didn't respond i said you lied and that you did not question me and that you should post the quotes to show you didn't lie you didn't post the quotes because there are none, you lied yet again, and are still lying it's easy to post the quotes if there were any, but to you, lying is speaking naturally. |
muttley and others believe the Angel of the Lord is the Word-Jesus Christ Act 12:7 And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands. Act 12:8 And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And so he did. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me. Act 12:9 And he went out, and followed him; and wist not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision. Act 12:10 When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him. Act 12:11 And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews. Peter knew the Lord very well, but he did not recognise the Angel of the Lord and the Angel of the Lord did not say to Peter, it's me Jesus Peter realised that the Lord had sent His Angel to rescue him. |
muttley, you said to berniemoorer that you won't respond to him again because he is ignorant and clueless that's the same reasons why i don't respond much to you and some others also do you understand now? but mainly, the reason i don't get into discussions with you and some others is because you and those others are Bible disbelievers, that change what the Bible says, and even say the opposite i don't help those or get into discussions with those who oppose the Bible, but i will sometimes show up your wrongs, as you know, but deny ![]() |
and another one for you muttley: johnw74: |
another one for you muttley: johnw74: |
^^^ above two posts what a load of bull mutt talks also these are contradictions: MuttleyLaff: Yes, He, God the Father has called an Angel ''His Son'' muttleyLaff: Angels dont create, angels dont know all, angels arent God, no angels died for manin the first instance, the Bible verse you say the opposite too, is speaking off Jesus Christ you implied Jesus is an Angel and then in the second instance you say: "Angels don't create" well as the Word-Jesus Christ created everything He cannot be an Angel and that's just one instance where you contradict yourself again what a load of bull you talk |
Heb 1:1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Heb 1:2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Heb 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; Heb 1:4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. Heb 1:5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? Heb 1:6 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him. Heb 1:7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. Heb 1:8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, [size=14pt]O God[/size], is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. Heb 1:9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. Heb 1:10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: Heb 1:11 They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; Heb 1:12 And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail. Heb 1:13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? Heb 1:14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation? these verses are clearly showing that Jesus Christ is not, and never has been an Angel and Father God called Jesus Christ "God", just like John 1:1 called the Word "God" but so called jw has been blinded through unbelief. |
dolphinheart:not you or any so called jw has shown me to be wrong except in your own deluded minds, believing your changed and twisted scriptures yes, everyone knows i say Jesus Christ is God the Word, and other Christians know also and agree with me and yes, everyone knows i say jesus Christ was bodily resurrected etc etc etc, and other Christians know also and agree with me however antichrists, those who call themselves Jehovahs Witnesses, but are not, and do lie, and are the church of satan say Jesus Christ is Michael the archangel, even though God the Word, come Jesus Christ created all the angels once there was nothing at all except God, and God the Word created all there is, Angels, the Earth, people and so on. |
MuttleyLaff:while i'm at it, why were you saying: God did say to an Angel thou art my Son etc and then say: an Angel never created anything etc why all the contradictions? |
MuttleyLaff:duh, you must think that is a hard question for the umpteenth time i don't get into discussions with jw and the likes why don't you tell the people if you think you have something to say then i might show you where you are wrong i don't mind doing that |
one of the problems with sectarians is that they are not opened minded they believe what they are taught, and they keep reinforcing their beliefs with their changed bible, and with the twisting of scriptures that they have been taught, instead of believing the plain truth. jw teach that the Father created Michael and lucifer and then Michael created everything else however the Bible shows us that the Word created everything, that includes Michael and lucifer who are Angels |
of course i'm not going to reply to jw twisting of scripture just to say dolphin didn't refute his lying because he can not when jw speak a lie they are speaking naturally and twisting the scriptures goes hand in hand with lying 1Th 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Jesus comes with all His Angels, that includes the archangel mentioned above who shouts the message of Jesus Christ's coming those who twist the scriptures say that because Jesus comes with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, means that Jesus is an archangel by that same reasoning, it could be said that because Jesus comes with the trumpet of God, that Jesus is a trumpet Mat 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. Mat 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. |
God the Word-the Lord Jesus Christ, created everything that was created Joh 1:1 ....and the Word was God. Joh 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. God is the creator Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. [size=14pt]An Angel has never created anything[/size] |
Dan 10:13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, [size=14pt]one of[/size] the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia. Col 2:10 And ye are complete in him, which is [size=14pt]the head of all[/size] principality and power: Michael is [size=14pt]one of[/size] the chief Princes Jesus Christ is [size=14pt]the head of all[/size] principality and power |
Anas09:i don't agree with that about MuttleyLaff, he said that God called an angel His son, that God said to an Angel sit at my right hand going against verses i posted and saying the exact opposite Heb 1:5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? Heb 1:13 But to which of the Angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? and in his last post he agreed with my view: "Angels dont create, angels dont know all, angels arent God, no angels died for man" he changes what he says all over the place |
dolphinheart:i havn't commented about those verses here but post the quotes and show yourself not to be lying yet again I did ask him some questions on the scriptures he quoted, but he refuses to answer. Maybe ill ask you to help me ask him if you are interested.you never did but post the quotes and show yourself not to be lying yet again and again |
