The best and simple way to know anything
genuine is to consider and take note of all it's detail characteristics.

But the infinite God can never be completely known in all ramifications.

Notwithstanding, He has not hid Himself, just that the human mind is too small to accommodate Him.

My Jesus is one million times better than them all.

Will you have Him?

So, since God's characteristics are endless, I will be posting 1-8 with Bible quotations.

*. One of the laws in mathematics says if 1(one) is multiplied by itself it remains the same, i.e 1×1×1= 1.

John 16:28 "I CAME FORTH from the Father..."

In my understanding He is saying " I multiplied/increased/project from the Father"

The 1st one(1) is one, 2nd one(1) is one and the 3rd one(1) is one. the same
Whatever description you give to any of them, the same is true for the rest.

This is the law that qualifies Jesus as the true God!

Let's see some of the qualities of the true God:

1. Creator
2. Power
3. Omniscient
4. Everlasting
5. Receiving worship
6. Judge of all
7. Love
8. Life

...
1. FATHER/SON IS THE CREATOR OF ALL THINGS:

*. Isaiah 45:5-7 "KJV:I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
6
KJV:That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else.
7
KJV:I FORM the light, and CREATE darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.

*. Isaiah 45:12 "
KJV:I have MADE the earth, and CREATED man upon it: I, even MY HANDS, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded. ( i.e the Father)
...

...

*. Jeremiah 27: 5 "KJV:I HAVE MADE the earth, the man and the beast that are upon the ground, by my great power and by my outstretched arm, and have given it unto whom it seemed meet unto me. ( i.e the Father)

*. John 1:3 "KJV: ALL THINGS were MADE BY HIM; and without him was not any thing MADE that was made. ( i.e the Son)

*. Colossians 1:16 "KJV: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 ( i.e the Son)...

....
*. Romans 11:36 "KJV:For of him, and through him, and to him, ARE ALL THINGS: to whom be glory for ever. Amen. (i.e the Son)

NOTE! God said He created all things with His own hands, see Isaiah 45:12.

2. These things were created by Himself and for Himself.
For His own pleasure they are and were created, see Colossians 1:16, Revelation 4:11

3. " of Him" means that the things used belongs to Him (the Son) Romans 11:36.

For the fact that Jesus possesses all the qualities of the true God, He's the true God.


Wait for the remaining ones

The bolded clearly defines the God you choose to worship, definitely each worshiper of your God will have to pick whatever he/she is able to grasp and start building his/her own understanding of your mysterious God.
I think that's the one and only beef you have for Jehovah's Witnesses, because our own God has blessed us with a small group of wise men just like the Apostles of Christ in the first century, this men he (God) is using as Shepherds to guide his sheep so that we all have the same line of thought about him {John 17:22 compare to 1Corinthians 1:10} that is why all those who want to worship our own God must come under the same umbrella or roof of this foundation.
So next time when you're about to speak against JWs remember that our own God differs from yours who cannot be understood.
JEHOVAH has made himself known to the born again Christians in our midst so they're the ones taking the lead in TEACHING us exactly what JEHOVAH wants us to do so that his people could be well organized in an orderly manner! 1Corinthians 14:33, 40

Thanks!

What are the distinguishing characteristics of this your Jehovah.

My beef with you guys is that you have the Word in your Hands and in your Heads but the Watch tower in your Hearts.

But Heaven bound Christians have the Word in their Hands, in their Heads and in their Hearts.

That is tripple H, just like the Trinity: Father,Son and Spirit.

The Watch tower occupying your Heart is the confusion you are having.

2. FATHER/SON NAME IS GREAT/POWERFUL:

*. Matthew 28:18 "KJV:And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, ALL POWER IS GIVEN UNTO ME in heaven and in earth."(i.e the Son)

*. Psalm 29:4 "KJV:The voice of THE LORD IS POWERFUL; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty."(i.e the Father).....

He is a covenant keeping God!

All his worshipers understood the covenant that binds us as ONE from JEHOVAH, his only begotten SON and the entire global family of his worshipers {John 17:22} so we all submit to this arrangement. Hebrew 13:7,17
The written words (Bible) is the main guidebook {John 17:17} those taking the lead serves as Apostles (overseers) {Ephesians 4:12) they're the organizers and all worshipers are in total submission to them. So everything is well organized in an orderly manner! 1Corinthians 14:33, 40
To JEHOVAH whoever turn against this arrangement is no more part of his organized people {John 15:1-10} so such a person is ON HIS OWN! Luke 11:23

That's why Jesus sent us out in search of individuals who will be interested in this arrangement, he calls them the "lost sheep of the house of Israel" Matthew 10:6

Thanks!

*. Psalm 147: "Great is our Lord, and MIGHTY IN POWER; his understanding is infinite"

*. Jeremiah 10 : 6 "Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O Lord; thou art great, and THY NAME IS GREAT IN MIGHT.(i.e the Father)

*. Isaiah 45:23-24
KJV:I HAVE SWORN BY MYSELF, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, THAT UNTO ME EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW, every tongue shall swear.(i.e the Father)
24
KJV:Surely, shall one say, in the Lord have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men come; and ALL THAT ARE INCENSED AGAINST HIM SHALL BE ASHAMED. ( And I said AMEN!)....

....
*. Philippians2 :10"KJV: THAT AT THE NAME OF JESUS EVERY KNEE SHOULD BOW, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;(i.e the Son)

*. Mark 16: 17"KJV:And these signs shall follow them that believe; IN MY NAME SHALL THEY CAST OUT DEVILS; they shall speak with new tongues;(i.e the Son)
....

....NOTE: the Father sworn that:

a). His glory He won't give to another, see Isaiah 48:11'KJV:
For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I WILL NOT GIVE MY GLORY unto ANOTHER.

Jesus is not another, except if say God is lying to me.

b). To his name every knee shall bow

Hebrews 6:13
KJV:For when God made promise to Abraham, BECAUSE HE COULD SWEAR BY NO GREATER, he sware by HIMSELF,

c). God cannot lie

Hebrews 6:18"KJV:That by two immutable things, in which IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD TO LIE, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us.

If Jesus is another...then God has told us a lie.

Wait for number 3!

Jesus ( God the Son) is the covenant keeping God:

*. Matthew 1:22 "KJV:Now all this was done, THAT IT MIGHT BE FULFILLED WHICH WAS SPOKEN OF THE LORD by the prophet, saying,"

*. Matthew 2:15 "KJV:And was there until the death of Herod: THAT IT MIGHT BE FULFILLED WHICH WAS SPOKEN OF THE LORD by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son."

*. Matthew 24:34 "KJV:Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, TILL ALL THESE THINGS BE FULFILLED.
35
KJV:Heaven and earth shall pass away, but MY WORDS SHALL NOT PASS AWAY.(i.e the Son)

*. John 18:32 "KJV: THAT THE SAYING OF JESUS MIGHT BE FULFILLED, which he spake, signifying what death he should die." ( i.e the Son)

Other places: mark 1:15; Luke 4 :21; 21:32; acts 1:16; 13:33 and many more.

A covenant is something binding two, three or more persons in an agreement with a powerful God, king or leader {Exodus 19:5 compare to Jeremiah 31:31-34; John 17:22} so all those involved in a covenant must speak in agreement {Romans 15:5-6;1Corinthians 1:10; 2Corinthians 13:11} they are binded together by unshakable LOVE {John 13:34-35} those outside the covenant will know that these people are in a covenant with a supreme spirit being! Matthew 5:13-16

Thanks!

3. FATHER /SON IS THE OMNISCIENT:

*. 1 John 3:20 For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and KNOWETH ALL THINGS. (i.e the Father)

*. John 21:17 "KJV:He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, THOU KNOWEST ALL THINGS; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep. (i.e the Son)....

....NOTE!
Apostle John said God KNOWS ALL THINGS;

Apostle Peter said Jesus KNOWS ALL THINGS;

That's why FATHER, SON AND HOLY GHOST IS THE ONE TRUE GOD....

...
4. FATHHER/SON IS EVERLASTING:

*. Isaiah 40:28 "KJV:Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that THE EVERLASTING GOD, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.(i.e the FATHER).



*. KJV: Deuteronomy 33: 27 "THE ETERNAL GOD is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them.(i.e the Father)...

....Psalms 102:27 But THOU ART THE SAME, and thy years shall have no end.(i.e the Father)

Revelation 5:14 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four [and] twenty elders fell down and worshipped HIM THAT LIVETH FOR EVER AND EVER.( i.e the Son).

*. Hebrews 1:8 "KJV:But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O GOD, IS FOR EVER AND EVER: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom." (i.e the Son)....

....*. HEBREWS 13:8 "
KJV: JESUS Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and FOR EVER.(i.e the Son).

*. Revelation 1:18 "KJV:I AM HE THAT LIVETH, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive FOR EVERMORE, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death."(i.e the Son)

*. Revelation 4:9-11 "KJV:And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, WHO LIVETH FOR EVER AND EVER,
10
KJV:The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,
11
KJV:Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created....

....
Note:
Jesus says I AM HE THAT LIVETH FOR EVER MORE.

In revelation 4:9-11 it's Jesus, God the Son. How do I know?

Jesus (in His office as human being) died.
His death on the cross is one of the reasons He is worthy 'to receive glory and honour and power'.

9. Jealous

The concept of Trinity seems to elude most Christians.
There's the God Head, the Supreme being.
Then God the Son, that came to die for man to have eternal life.
Then God the Holyspirit, the Helper, Convicter, etc.

These 3 are different entities but bear witness as one. Meaning they agree on all matters.

They are not the same 1 person. Otherwise it would be wrong for God to say Let "US" create man in OUR image and likeness.

Also it makes no sense that Stephen would see Jesus Christ seated on the right hand on God.

It makes no sense that John in Revelation also saw God and Jesus as 2 separate entities.

I think only JWs and few other people disagree with this truth.

5. FATHHER/SONRECEIVES WORSHIP:

*. Matthew 4:10 kjV:Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt WORSHIP the LORD thy GOD, AND HIM ONLY SHALT THOU SERVE.(i.e the Father)


*. John 12:26 "KJV:If any MAN SERVE ME, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any MAN SERVE ME, him will my Father honour...(i.e the Son)

.....

*. Luke 1: 74 "KJV:That he would grant unto us, that WE BEING DELIVERED out of the hand of our enemies MIGHT SERVE HIM WITHOUT FEAR," (i.e the Son)

*. Acts 7:7 "KKJV: And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and SERVE ME IN THIS PLACE."(i.e the Father)...

.....
NOTE, He (Jesus) said ONLY the Lord your God you will serve,
consider the emphasis on the word ONLY, i.e no other one should be served.

He then said all the people serving Him (Jesus) the Father will honour them.

If anyone serves Jesus, he's not serving idol. And they are not serving another God...

He didn't use the word God in that place but Father.

Because He (Jesus) had assumed His office as God in that verse.

He said ONLY God you have to serve, and said afterward SERVE ME.

In other words He is saying I AM THE LORD THY GOD whom only you shall serve....

....
*. Deuteronomy 6:13 "KJV:Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, and SERVE HIM, and shalt swear by his name.
(i.e the Father).

*. Psalms 96:6 "KJV:O WORSHIP THE LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.(i.e the Father)....
