Jehovah witness are CHRISTIANS This is why is call Jehovah witness christian congregation. I am shocked that you said that they are not christian as

their main objective is to follow Christ live and do exactly what he did which is going from house to house and village

to village preaching the good news of the Kingdom of God. He is the King of that Kingdom that Jehovah God has given him.

the reason why he said before Abraham I was, he was the first creation of God: Colossians 1:15

Although he was the son he learned obedience from the things he suffered: Hebrews 5:8

He called the father Jehovah "his God" John 20:17

Philippians 2:6 "Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God "

John 14:28 "The father is greater than I"

As well he said there are things that neither him nor the angels know except the father . Mark 13:32

also philppians 2: 5,6 states that Jesus was in the form of God ( in spirit form just like angels) gave no consideration

that he should be like God.

Psalms 83:18 state " That man may know that thou,whose name alone is Jehovah, art the most high over all the earth"

KJ

Mark 10: 18 states "why do you call me good? Nobody is good except one, God" (meaning that everything that Jesus had or gave came from the father.

As you see we do believe in Jesus as the Son of God and his first creation but not as God himself.

Jesus did say the "father and I are one" but in the same chapter he said to his disciple "all of you be one

as the father and I are one" so this means that father and Jesus have the same thoughts just as his disciples need to have the same frame of mind.

just as when he told Adam and Eve to be one flesh. What that this mean ? is it literal? obviously not.

What does it mean to be a Christian is to be a follower of Christ and that is exactly what we try to do.

thank you very much

I have heard that JW leadership have told members to only use authorized websites on the web. I am not sure what level of intensity was used when this was communicated. Is it a requirement or just discouraged? Could you find out and reflect that in your article"

And to those who posted before me - the editor clearly stated exactly why JW are not considered Christian, the JW are missing 2 essential doctrines required by definition of what it means to be Christian. Are you claiming that the missing criteria used to identify a christian is now part of JW doctrine?
