zodiakzax:
have you read your answers? Does it even make sense to you? I've given you those scriptures and comparisons bcs Jesus did what God alone can do. And please Jesus was never addressed as our Father because it was through Him eternal life came from. John 15 Christ called the apostles brethren. We are joint -heirs with Him. He asked us to call God Father. Where did you get that info from. Give me one scripture that says Jesus was called Father? He's everlasting Father same us God.

Micah 5:2(ISV):

As for you, Bethlehem of Ephrathah, even though you remain least among the clans of Judah, nevertheless, the one who rules in Israel for me will emerge from you. His existence has been from antiquity, even from eternity.

And He's the Mighty God. Wanted to see if you guys interpret it as mighty god. You don't even know what you are doing. Satan is always limited in his wisdom.
Jesus have a God he worships too , therefore he is not the supreme being. 1 cor 15:28

proverb 8:22-30 , personified wisdom claims to be with Yahweh in the process of creation, no other person but Jesus Christ
please read this and let me know what you think:
http://www.answering-islam.org/Shamoun/q_wisdom_created.htm


And if that Is the case then what you are saying that Jesus was created is true then. But that is not the case Prov 8 is not talking about Jesus. Wisdom was indeed with God but also note that wisdom said she was there when the world was created but Christ was the one who created the world as we know. "All things were made BY Him and without Him was not was not anything made that was made. Wisdom is one of the Sephirots used in creation. You can understand better if you also read about it here.

you didn't answer my question. I believe none of us wrote the Bible here, in fact it doesn't matter what my brother Johnw74 thinks, it doesn't even matter what I think. What matters is the truth so answer my question and stop talking nonsense. And besides we are not like you guys, if am wrong he can simply tell me what he thinks and give me his reasons and I will also do my research to see if it's true. Any reasonable person who wants the truth will do that. In any ways you can read this if you want.

zodiaczax, jozz probably only knows about proverbs 8:22-30 because I done a short post on it here at this forum long ago.

In proverbs 8:22 the Hebrew word "qanah" can mean create, and it can mean possess, I say possess because
it aligns with John 1:1

Pro 8:22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

also the Word is not created, He is God's Spirit.

Isa_48:16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.

I have no problem for the Word being created, in as much as He was made into another person, and that's what happened at that time, but the Word has always existed in God, He was set up, God bought Him forth.

Pro 8:23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
Pro 8:24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

I won't say more here at this thread, but that gives you something to study on.

I'm going to read from that link you gave and I may learn something as well.

Anyway I can only assume nothing we tell you will change your mind as John74 said, accepting this might mean excommunication so I understand, but remember Hell is real and if you don't open your eyes it might just get a grip of you and ur fellow JW's, repent therefore and be saved.

phony jw, I said exactly what the bible verse said, which you obviously don't believe:

quote johnw74: "the Word is not created, He is God's Spirit"

Isa_48:16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.

[quote author=Sarang post=46143181]
Aside from Michael, no archangel is mentioned in the Bible, nor do the Scriptures use the term “archangel” in the plural. The Bible describes Michael as the archangel, implying that he alone bears that designation. Hence, it is reasonable to conclude that Jehovah God has delegated to one, and only one, of his heavenly creatures full authority over all other angels.
you lie there are many archangels Daniel 10:13. Archangel simple means Chief angel.Jehovah cannot delegate his authority to an angel isaiah42;8 but Jesus said All that the father has are his john 16:15.@ bold where did you get that

[right]Aside from the Creator himself, only one faithful person is spoken of as having angels under subjection—namely, Jesus Christ.
Jesus is the creator

The apostle Paul made specific mention of “the Lord Jesus” and “his powerful angels.” (2 Thessalonians 1:7) And Peter described the resurrected Jesus by saying: “He is at God’s right hand, for he went his way to heaven; and angels and authorities and powers were made subject to him.”—1 Peter 3:22.
While there is no statement in the Bible that categorically identifies Michael the archangel as Jesus, there is one scripture that links Jesus with the office of archangel.
your own mouth has said it
In his letter to the Thessalonians, the apostle Paul prophesied: “The Lord himself will descend from heaven with a commanding call, with an archangel’s voice and with God’s trumpet, and those who are dead in union with Christ will rise first.” (1 Thessalonians 4:16)
did you see the comma separating the Lord's voice from that of the archangel
[s] In this scripture Jesus is described as having assumed his power as God’s Messianic King. Yet, he speaks with “an archangel’s voice.” Note, too, that he has the power to raise the dead.[/s]

[s]After his own resurrection, Jesus was raised to a “superior position” in heaven as a spirit creature. [/s](Philippians 2:9) No longer a human, [s]he has the voice of an archangel. So when God’s trumpet sounded the call for “those who are dead in union with Christ” to be raised to heaven, Jesus issued “a commanding call,” this time “with an archangel’s voice.” It is reasonable to conclude that only an archangel would call “with an archangel’s voice.”[/s]
foolish reasoning
[s]Yes, there are other angelic creatures of high rank, such as seraphs and cherubs. (Genesis 3:24; Isaiah 6:2) Yet, the Scriptures point to the resurrected Jesus Christ as the chief of all angels—Michael the archangel.[/s]


I hope that this answers you.
@ bold you point is pointless

[quote author=CAPTIVATOR post=46144497]
this was why I quote philipians 2:6 again. the word is FORM not nature.[

form /fɔːm/
noun
1. the visible shape or configuration of something.
2. a particular way in which a thing exists or appears.

1) so pls, what is the Form of God ?
in old Greek the word means the inherent character of an entity this is different from the way we use it today, that is why some modern translations use nature instead of form.

------

about nature
nature /ˈneɪtʃə/
noun
1. the phenomena of the physical world collectively, including plants, animals, the landscape, and other features and products of the earth, as opposed to humans or human creations.
2. the basic or inherent features, character, or qualities of something.

going with the bold, one basic feature of God is that he knows the end of the conclusion of things, did Jesus know this ?
yes Jesus knows

this only shows how unlearned you are on this subject. When Paul made that statement wasn't Jesus already in heaven? Whether He has a genital or not, that does not concern me. He's God and is a our High priest and He's still having the nature of man. Rev 22:16huh? Waiting...

(10).God will come with all the holy ones (Zech 14:5), Jesus will come with all the holy ones (1Thess 3:13);
(10)King James Version
Zec 14:5And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee

King James Version
1Th 3:13To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.


Does the verses above mean jesus is Jehovah?no
there is more to this coming which might be discussed later, but not verse 11 to 13 of 2 thess 3:13 which had already differentiated jesus from God, one can read John chapter 17 to see who gave jesus this saints !

King James Version
1Th 3:11-13[u]Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ,[/u] direct our way unto you.
1Th 3:12And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you.
1Th 3:13To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.


(11)Only God is our savior (Isa 43:11), Jesus is our savior (Tit 2:13, 2Pet 1:1)
(11)Isa 43:11I—I am Jehovah, and besides me there is no savior.”
Tit 2:13while we wait for the happy hope and glorious manifestation of the great God and of our Savior, Jesus Christ,
2Pe 1:1Simon Peter, a slave and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have acquired a faith as precious as ours through the righteousness of our God and the Savior Jesus Christ:

are those verses telling us that because jesus is our savior, it mean he is Jehovah, the almighty God who said their is no savior beside him? The answer is no!

Jehovah is identified as the principal Savior, the only Source of deliverance.
at times past, he sent people to save the isrealites.
Jg 2:16So Jehovah would raise up judges who would save them from the hand of their plunderers.
Jg 3:9When the Israelites called to Jehovah for help, Jehovah raised up a savior to rescue the Israelites, Othʹni·el the son of Keʹnaz, the younger brother of Caʹleb.
Jg 3:15Then the Israelites called to Jehovah for help, so Jehovah raised up for them a savior, Eʹhud the son of Geʹra, a Benʹja·min·ite who was left-handed. In time the Israelites sent tribute through him to Egʹlon the king of Moʹab.


When Jesus was on earth, Jehovah was his Savior, supporting and strengthening him to maintain integrity through his strenuous trials
Heb 5:7During his life on earth, Christ offered up supplications and also petitions, with strong outcries and tears, to the One who was able to save him out of death, and he was favorably heard for his godly fear.
Ps 28:8Jehovah is a strength for his people; He is a stronghold, bringing grand salvation to his anointed one.


Along with his role as Savior, Jehovah is also the “Repurchaser.”
Isa 49:26I will make those who mistreat you eat their own flesh, And as with sweet wine, they will become drunk with their own blood. And all people will have to know that I am Jehovah, Your Savior and your Repurchaser, The Powerful One of Jacob.”
Isa 60:16


In the past he redeemed his people Israel from captivity. In delivering Christians from sin’s bondage, he does the repurchasing through his Son Jesus Christ

1Jo 4:14In addition, we ourselves have seen and are bearing witness that the Father has sent his Son as Savior of the world.
King James Version
Ac 5:31Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.


Therefore jesus can also be called our savior, but the scriptures has shown he is not Jehovah or almighty God.
Jude 25 to the only God our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glormajesty, might, and authority for all past eternity and now and into all eternity. Amen.

(12)God is the creator of the universe (Isa 44:24, Jer 27:5), Jesus is the creator of the universe ( Jn 1:3),
(12) Sir, I believe this has been handled.

will continue later, pls bear with me ..........
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: 17 Facts People Should Know About Them by Nobody: 1:48pm On Jun 01, 2016
Let's take a look at 1 Corinthians 15:24-28
Now this chapter which was written by apostle paul and was written to challenge false teaching insinuating that the resurrection has passed. One point that Paul raised was the issue of Christ resurrection, this was what the apostles preached, they were even eye witness to it, and now some people said there is nothing like resurrection.

If there is no resurrection of the dead then Christ did not resurrect, then your faith is useless. As Jws deny the resurrection of Christ. May God forgive them.
If you read this verse carefully, you will notice there is order, yes God is a God of order and not confussion. What are these order
1. Christ is the first to be resurrected vs 20

2. Since it was through man that death came so also by man ( not by an angel) will the resurrection come.( readers should take note of the proof that Christ is still a man in heaven)vs21

3. Since in Adam (a human) all humans dies so in another human ( Christ Jesus) all will live ( till eternity). cheesy vs22

Readers should note that these verses had been referring to Christ AS A MAN
.
Why is this important?
Recall Philippians 2 vs 7 Jesus put on the form of man. In this form Jesus could eat, sleep, be hungry, full his ministry as a servant, worship God, die and live. That is why Jesus refers to his disciples as brethren heb 2:11 and referred to my God and your God, my father and your father John 20:17. Jesus evidently has the same human nature that is why he is our high priest heb 8:1, heb 7:1- end John 2:1

4. The end will come when Christ as a human has delivered up the kingdom to the father. I.e after he had Judged the world.John 5:27. And hath given him authority to execute judgement also, because he is the son of man also see acts 17:31

I corit 15:25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
This is a continuation of Hebrews 2:5
First it is interesting for readers to note the harmony of the bible without any conjecture
From Hebrews 2:5 we see that the world to come is not made subject to angels.
God intends to make the world to come subject to man just as he subjected the earth to Adam. Readers should compare heb2:6-7 to gen 1:26
The comparism so far has been between the first Adam and the second Adam ( the man Christ Jesus) I corit 15:45
Vs 8 is referring to the fact that all things will be made subject to the man Christ Jesus.
Let's go back to I corit 15:25-28
Now do you see that it was a continuation of Hebrews 2:5-8 now when he said all things will be made subject to the man Christ Jesus( for he the man Christ Jesus must reign till all things is subjected to him), God himself cannot be made subject under the man Christ Jesus. So he that made things subject to Christ is exempted. Vs28

solite3:
Isaiah 42:12 English standard version
12. I made the earth and created man on it, it was my hands that stretched out heavens, and I commanded their host.

]Isaiah 45:12. Amplified Bible
12. I made the earth and created man upon it.
My hands stretched out the heavens
And I commanded all their host.


Isaiah 44:24. New world translation (NWT)
This is what Jehovah has said, your Repurchaser and the former of you from the belly.
I, Jehovah, am doing everything, stretching out the heavens by myself, laying out the earth. Who was with me?

This verse alone completely destroys Watchtowers theology because it obliterates any notion that Jehovah used a junior partner in the act of creation. The rhetorical question" who was with me?" is "No one". This is what sets Jehovah apart

Isaiah 45:12. NWT
"I myself [ Jehovah] [/b]have made the earth and have created even man upon it. I, my own hands have stretched out the heavens, and all the army I have commanded"
Again, Jehovah emphasizes "I myself" used " my own hands". Jehovah was the lone craftsman.

Isaiah 48:13, NWT "Moreover, [b]My own hand laid the foundation of the earth, and my own right hand extended out the heavens.
I am calling to them, that they may keep standing together.

This verse not only indicates that Jehovah's " Own hand" created heaven and earth, but that Jehovah is sustaining his creation as well.
When one examines New Testament verse regarding Jesus, one can see that Jesus is also credited as creator and sustainer. For example

John 1:3 NWT " All things came into existence
[color=#770077]through him, and apart from him not even one thing came into existence
"


Col 1:16-17 NWT " ....because by means of him all [other] things were created in the heavens and upon the earth, the things visible and the things invisible, no matter whether they are thrones or lordship or government or authorities. All[ other] things and by means of him all [ other] things were made to exist.[/color]
Heb 1:2. NWT " God who long ago spoke on many occasions and in many ways to our forefathers by means of the prophets, has at these end of days spoken by means of a son whom he had appointed heir of all things, through whom he made the systems of things. He is the reflection of [ his] glory and the exact representation of his very being, and he sustains all things by the word of his power.

AS TRINITARIANS, WE DON' T DENY THAT THE FATHER MADE THE WORLD THROUGH THE SON. BUT WITH SCRIPTURE, WE AFFIRM THAT ONLY JEHOVAH CREATED.
THEREFORE, THE FATHER AND THE SON ARE BOTH JEHOVAH.


The Jw ought to give serious reflection as to what he called Jesus " THE EXACT REPRESENTATION OF [JEHOVAH'S] BEING.

brocab:
Quote> Can the almighty God have a God? "Yes" to this question"
haha a! , so who is the God of the almighty God?
in essence you are saying the most high still has a God higher than him, you are saying the supreme being still has someone more supreme than him!, can you see what false teachings is making you do?
brocab, there is no one above the almighty God, there is no one above the most high!


{divine nature} Lets read what the bible say's "God called Jesus "God" in {Hebrews 1:8} But of the Son He say's your throne "O GOD" Is forever and ever. So yes God the Father called Jesus God, Not a god, but God.
did you read verse nine?, what does verse 9 tell you? It tells me that Jesus, even though he is a God, even though he is called mighty God , he still has a God!

now let's compare and contrast.
Does jesus have a God? yes
Does the father, Jehovah have a God? no
did Jesus call the father "his God" ? yes.
did the father call jesus "his God"? no
did Jesus call the father "my God" ? yes
did the father call jesus "my God" ? no
is jesus subjected to someone ? yes
is the father subjected to anyone ? no
is jesus sent? yes
is the father sent? no
is jesus sitting on the throne of the most high? no, he is at his right side
is jesus the most high? no, he is at his right side?

let me give you a simple example.
john and Peter are managers in a company
john and Peter are both managers
john is a different person from Peter
john is Peters manager
peter is not John's manager
john is a senior manager and manages peter despite peter being also a manager.
john is the most senior ,most high manager.

In the scenario above
john can call peter "manager," but he wunt call peter "my manager"
peter can call john "manager" and he is correct to also call john " my manager".

Jesus has told us who his God is, he calls that one "my god".
Jesus has also told us who our God is , that is why, in relation to jesus the disciples could say:

1Co 8:5,6: For even though there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, just as there are many “gods” and many “lords,”
1Co 8:6 [u]there is actually to us one God, THE FATHER,
from whom all things are and we for him; and there is one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things are and we through him.[/b]

brocab, I dnt know about your God, but the scriptures have helped me to identify who my God is!, he is the same one jesus identified as THE ONLY TRUE GOD!, the God of jesus who commanded jesus to redeem us.

Quote> Does Jesus have a God at the moment.
Yes" Jesus also has the Holy Spirit and He is part of the divine nature with The Father the Son and the Holy Spirit. {1 John 5:7}
Did 1John 5: 7 say Jesus is part of the divine nature with others ? no !
do not add to that scripture!

1 john 5:7

Berean Study Bible
For there are three that testify:


Quote> Does Jesus have a God He is subjected at this moment. Jesus sits at God's right hand side in heaven {Mark 16:19}
you are a very funny man brocab,
does sitting at the right side means he is subjected at the moment? yes ,no
who is he sitting at the right side of ? God!, how can you sit at the right side of someone, after being giving instructions by that same someone to do so, and you are now claiming that Jesus is that same someone, Haba!

Quote> Can the Almighty God be subjected to anyone? "Yes" God had raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Jesus Christ {Ephesians 2:6}
oh my!
so the almighty God is subjected to the humans he saved and raised ?

Now you can answer one for me, Is Jesus a divine being with the Father?
unlike you , I dnt wait for months before answering.
Jesus is not the same being with the Father, divine or not!
the father is a seperate person from Jesus .
even when they are together in the same location, the scriptures has shown they are two seperate beings , two seperate persons !

HOPE READERS CAN NOW SEE WHY I ASK QUESTIONS, CUS THEIR ANSWERS TO SUCH QUESTIONS WILL EXPOSE THE FALSE TEACHINGS THEY ARE SO DESPIRATE TO USE INDIRECT ANALOGY, MAN MADE VIEWS , PHILOSOPHY AND CREATED GRAMMAR AND WORDS TO ESTABLISH.
MOST I ME WHEN THIS TEACHINGS ARE BEING DISECTED WITH THE SCRIPTURES, THEY WILL REFUSE TO QUOTE IT, TALK LESS OF EXPLAIN ING THEM, HENCE THE NEED TO ALWAYS REMIND THEM


issues still at hand!
1. WRITTEN WHAAAT? pls point to what I've written and post it, anytime I say you said something, I endeavor to direct you to wheee and when you said it, so pls direct me and others to where I said " God and the Word is a two headed god"?
bunch of liars!

2. Brought what back to my attention, I know you desperately want him to bring those words he accused me of saying out, it pains you that he could not, hence you have to find alternatives!
..............................
And yet no response from you on the issue you yourself raised?
also up till now , you have not answered these questions
(ill find that post and point it to you)
......................................
you have also refused to respond to these questions and scripture:
[b]Just tell us the name of the church you associate with, that you are a member of!. If possible you can include its official website, at least you surpport using technology in Gods work.
Tell us, do you know that Jesus Christ told someone that he has a God? And that statement was recorded in the kjv.? Can you tell us where this can be found?
If you can't answer this question brocab, then you dnt know the truth about Christ!.
Expecially. The one spoken by Jesus himself.

Examine this questions brocab
1. If you say one body, one spirit, was Jesus a spirit before he came to earth?
2. When Jesus was on earth, was the spirit in him his, the father or the holy spirit.?
3. After Jesus left the earth, did he remain in the body or became a spirit?
4. What does Jesus mean by " the father is greater than I am"
5. Why does Jesus say he is going to the father when you are trying to say he is spirit.
6. You asked a question, the answer is yes, but ill like to ask you, what about the soul, why did you remove the soul when fomulating your question.
brocab , readers will note(again) that you have NOT quoted and explained ANY of the following scriptures :
1.rev 1:1,6
2. Rev 3, 2,13
3. John 17:1-3
4. Heb 1:1 -9
5. John 20:17
6. 1 cor 11:3
7 . 1 ti 2 :5,6

10. Acts 2:24
11. Acts 5:30
12.Acts 10:38,40,43
11. Phil 2:9,11
12. john 14:6
13. Acts 4 : 26,27, 30
14. 1 john 4:14

18. Eph 1:3
19. 1 pet 1:3
20: 2Cor 8:6
21. 1 cor 15: 27,28
And a host of others
.............................................
Brocab , examine these scripture
Acts 5: 31.
Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
John 3:16.
For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten
Son, that whosoever believeth
in him should not perish, but
have everlasting life.
Jesus is Gods only begotten son, Jesus is not God almighty!
................................................
YOU HAVE AGAIN ADDED LIES TO YOUR VIEWS.
Lets see if Jesus was recognizable to those who knew him:
[b]King James Version
Joh 20:14And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and KNEW NOT THAT IT WAS Jesus!
King James Version
Joh 20:15Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? SHE SUPPOSING HIM TO BE THE GARGENER, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.
I dnt think the disciples would have been able to recognize Jesus more than Mary, she probably would have known Jesus from birth, and the picture of Jesus in her memory would have been sharper than a 100 mega pixel camera!
but here you are , lying again that Jesus was recognizable to those who knew him!
dnt you think Mary should have been able to recognise Jesus instantly if he had been raise in the same body he died in?
* this is a question ill hope you can give us answer to .
Do you notice how Jesus appeared to his disciples who had locked the doors, his actions transcends the physical realm, he appeared to them gram!, in a locked rooM!. yet until he showed them death dealing wound marks, that was when they believed they where swing the Lord.
brocab pls tell us
1. DOES SOME ONE FACE CHANGE WHEN HE OR SHE IS RESSURRECTED WITH THE SAME BODY HE OR SHE DIED IN?
2.DOES SOME ONE GETS RESSURRECTED WITH THE WOUND'S OR INJURIES THAT KILLED HIM?
If your assumptions are true, I bet during the ressurection, we will know those whose throut where slit, cus there will still be a gapping hole in there necks. and those whose brains where blown out will have a hole in their head, cus they will be resurrected with that same body!
before, I digress, let's further examine ya lie.
King James Version
Joh 21:4But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: BUT THE DISCIPLES KNEW NOT THAT IT WAS Jesus.
john 21: 12 New International Version
Jesus said to them, "Come and have breakfast." None of the disciples dared ask him, "Who are you?" They knew it was the Lord.
even after seing Jesus after his resurrecting, after being with Jesus for years, they still do not recognize Jesus at first glance. If Jesus had been resurrected with the same body he had died in, the disciples will have no doubt, they wunt need to even bother to ask the question that dared not to ask, "who are you".
Jesus had just showed them who he is, it is left for us to understand that they still had issues with Jesus physical features, despite knowing that the person inviting theM to a meal is actually Jesus.
I for one believe that only spirits do appear and dissappear at will!
spirits can manifest physical bodies of any liking for any particular purpose, the scriptures is awash with such occurrences, they can even use it to have sex sef!
sir do you ever read the scriptures at all.
It says flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God!
human body is flesh and blood!
how then do you espect the king of gods kingdom to have flesh and blood while his Co rulers do not!
how do you expect the physical to rule in the spiritual realm.
brocab, Jesus was a spirit before he came to earth, was he not?
how come , you refuse him his spirit nature when he had accomplished the work he was sent to do here on earth?[/b]

zodiakzax:
is that what you think the link is saying? Really? Lol.. you havn't made a Lil sense since you started with your arguments. Asking dumb questions and don't even know what you are talking about. Anyway I can only assume nothing we tell you will change your mind as John74 said, accepting this might mean excommunication so I understand, but remember Hell is real and if you don't open your eyes it might just get a grip of you and ur fellow JW's, repent therefore and be saved.
for your mind you are the one making sense

(10)King James Version
Zec 14:5And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee

King James Version
1Th 3:13To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.


Does the verses above mean jesus is Jehovah?no
there is more to this coming which might be discussed later, but not verse 11 to 13 of 2 thess 3:13 which had already differentiated jesus from God, one can read John chapter 17 to see who gave jesus this saints !

King James Version
1Th 3:11-13[u]Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ,[/u] direct our way unto you.
1Th 3:12And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you.
1Th 3:13To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.



(11)Isa 43:11I—I am Jehovah, and besides me there is no savior.”
Tit 2:13while we wait for the happy hope and glorious manifestation of the great God and of our Savior, Jesus Christ,
2Pe 1:1Simon Peter, a slave and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have acquired a faith as precious as ours through the righteousness of our God and the Savior Jesus Christ:

are those verses telling us that because jesus is our savior, it mean he is Jehovah, the almighty God who said their is no savior beside him? The answer is no!

Jehovah is identified as the principal Savior, the only Source of deliverance.
at times past, he sent people to save the isrealites.
Jg 2:16So Jehovah would raise up judges who would save them from the hand of their plunderers.
Jg 3:9When the Israelites called to Jehovah for help, Jehovah raised up a savior to rescue the Israelites, Othʹni·el the son of Keʹnaz, the younger brother of Caʹleb.
Jg 3:15Then the Israelites called to Jehovah for help, so Jehovah raised up for them a savior, Eʹhud the son of Geʹra, a Benʹja·min·ite who was left-handed. In time the Israelites sent tribute through him to Egʹlon the king of Moʹab.


When Jesus was on earth, Jehovah was his Savior, supporting and strengthening him to maintain integrity through his strenuous trials
Heb 5:7During his life on earth, Christ offered up supplications and also petitions, with strong outcries and tears, to the One who was able to save him out of death, and he was favorably heard for his godly fear.
Ps 28:8Jehovah is a strength for his people; He is a stronghold, bringing grand salvation to his anointed one.


Along with his role as Savior, Jehovah is also the “Repurchaser.”
Isa 49:26I will make those who mistreat you eat their own flesh, And as with sweet wine, they will become drunk with their own blood. And all people will have to know that I am Jehovah, Your Savior and your Repurchaser, The Powerful One of Jacob.”
Isa 60:16


In the past he redeemed his people Israel from captivity. In delivering Christians from sin’s bondage, he does the repurchasing through his Son Jesus Christ

1Jo 4:14In addition, we ourselves have seen and are bearing witness that the Father has sent his Son as Savior of the world.
King James Version
Ac 5:31Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.


Therefore jesus can also be called our savior, but the scriptures has shown he is not Jehovah or almighty God.
[b]Jude 25 to the only God our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glormajesty, might, and authority for all past eternity and now and into all eternity. Amen.


(12) Sir, I believe this has been handled.

will continue later, pls bear with me ..........
there's nothing to bear with since you are still not making sense. Those scriptures were given for u to see the similarity between God and Jesus. God says He will do this Jesus says the same thing, God says He will come with His saints, Jesus said He will come with His saints etc if Jesus is not God why then does He do the samething God does? Why has He been called God and the names of God in Isa ? God says I alone laid the foundation of the world and sustain it by His power. Jesus also created the world and sustains all things by the power of His Word. What do you make of that. God use the phrase first and last, Jesus used the same phrase, first and last. Why would He use that phrase if He's not God? When you are done explaining what ever you want to explain pls do explain Rev 22:16 for me. Thank you

johnw74:
phony jw, I said exactly what the bible verse said, which you obviously don't believe:

quote johnw74: "the Word is not created, He is God's Spirit"

Isa_48:16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.

By the way you added to, and took away from what I said, so you also get a new name


Lie Lie jozzy
hahahahahaha, See what removing Gods name from the bible did to johnw74.

isa 48:16 " and now the sovereign Lord Jehovah himself has sent me, even his spirit " .,. Isaiah testify that Jehovah sent him through his spirit !

it didnt say Jesus is Gods spirit as u said grin

zodiakzax:
this only shows how unlearned you are on this subject. When Paul made that statement wasn't Jesus already in heaven?
yea, but he was speaking with reference to Jesus mission on earth as a man, that is to " gave himself as a ransom for all " 1 Tim 2:6

Whether He has a genital or not, that does not concern me.
hahahahaha be specific , doesnt concern u my foot ? grin ... get ready to accept whatever that comes with ur irrational theories, what about BLOOD aftrall he is a human being? remember flesh and blood cnnot inherit the kingdom of God.

He's God and is a our High priest and He's still having the nature of man. Rev 22:16huh? Waiting...
Jesus is God in the sense of being a Mighty one. but he is not God in the definition of the supreme being- 1 cor 15:28, he has a God he worships too

*** and what happen to Rev 22:16? u can as well say Jesus is a literal lamb since he was calld a lamb
Re: Jehovah's Witnesses: 17 Facts People Should Know About Them by Nobody: 2:49pm On Jun 01, 2016
Solite still loading.next will be on the overwhelming proof that Jesus is God. but first I want to ask all Jehovah witness this question

IS JESUS A TRUE GOD OR A FALSE GOD.
since you said Jesus is a God, is it not good to know the type of God he is?
