JEHOVAH WITNESS CULT - IITB 06.14

 

Chapter 6. 14

Jehovah Witness Cult

The Cross is a pagan Sex symbol – Jesus has already returned - There is no Trinity

 

 

First Word

     This Word Study is not to Judge the Jehovah Witness denomination, but to express an earnest sorrow for their blind deception, not only for themselves, but for those who they solicit as they go door to door, blindly leading them into this same deception; they will all fall into the ditch.[1] 

     In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus is teaching The Beatitudes which did NOT show a person how to be saved, but shows the characteristics of a person WHO IS SAVED.  They are not promises, but a description.  It’s in the Book

     Blessed are those who mourn; this second beatitude really grabs my Spirit.  This mourning is acknowledging my own personal sins with a broken heart before God.  My sins are just too deep to conceal.  It is weeping in Godly sorrow and compassion over misguided perishing JW souls and anguishing over sins of others; tears of sorrow for injustice and wanting right to prevail.[2]

 

Cult

     CULT; A religious group that 1) meets regularly; 2) has an altar; 3) prays to a deity; 4) points to a different book other than the Bible, and/or 5) points to a prophet or founder who has “special enlightenment” not found in the Bible.

     Jehovah Witnesses 1) meet regularly, 2) have an altar, 3) pray to a deity; 4) point to the WATCHTOWER for new enlightenment and point to their New World Translation book as the Bible and 5)  point to Charles Taze Russell as their prophet.  ALL FIVE CULT POINTS MET

     All cults do not have all the same characteristics.  Some stress moral activities, others lifestyle; the kind of method of proselytizing; manifestation of Spiritual Gifts, Spirit Guides, Self-denial; Rejection of the upper classes values; Chanting, Channeling, Visions, Scientific, Philosophical and Communal methods and Sex freedom religions; then there is bizarre cultic behavior such as Jim Jones.

 

We simply cannot lump all cults together although

they have ONE theme in common;

THEY ALL PRESENT A DIFFERENT GOSPEL.

Jesus Christ Plus

     Jesus Christ Plus Rules, Rites, Myths and Traditions; immediately, as the Gospel of Jesus Christ was preached; “Another Gospel” began.  This gospel was that of Jesus Christ “PLUS” customs and rites; (circumcision - hand washing)  The very first group was called “Judaizers” who sought to make Jewish Law a part of Christianity, later there were splinter groups like the “Nicolaitanes” who added their own legalism.[3] Today we call these legalistic movements; Mormons, Jehovah Witnesses, etc.

     How good is good; when are you good enough? Salvation is Jesus Christ PLUS nothing else.

Watchtower Society

     The Watchtower Society and its followers claim they are all PROPHETS of God and their governing body is directed by angels of God.  They are the only source of God’s truth and they alone can interpret God’s word.  There is no salvation apart from following the NWT bible; your soul will be destroyed.

     The Watchtower and Awake Magazine are treated as EQUAL to the Bible. When the Watchtower Society changes their doctrines, they say it’s because the “light of truth” is getting brighter.  Their light bounces from old views to new views then back to old views again; ABOUT FACES.

     They have their own Bible; the NWT, the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures.  Four out of the five translators did not know Greek nor Hebrew, but they were “experienced” JW followers who were anointed to do the work. There is no salvation apart from following the NWT bible.

For your prayers to be heard you must use the correct name for God, the name Jehovah.

 

Watchtower Prophecy

     The Bible has a word or two from God about Prophecy; I am against the prophets who steal from one another words supposedly from me.  Yes,” declares the LORD, “I am against the prophets who wag their own tongues and yet declare, ‘The LORD declares.’  Indeed, I am against those who prophesy false dreams,” declares the LORD. “They tell them and lead my people astray with their reckless lies, yet I DID NOT SEND OR APPOINT THEM.  They do not benefit these people in the least.        Let’s look at some of the JW prophecies.

 

     1897 Our Lord, the appointed King, is now present, since October 1874.  Didn’t Happen

     1899 The battle of “the great day of God Almighty”, which will end in A.D. 1914 with the complete overthrow of earth's present ruler ship, is already commenced."  Didn’t Happen  

     1916 The Bible chronology herein presented shows that the six great 1000 year days beginning with Adam are ended, and that the great 7th Day, the 1000 years of Christ's Reign, began in 1873.  Well that Didn’t Happen either  

     1918 Therefore we may confidently expect that 1925 will mark the return of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and the faithful prophets of old, particularly those named by the Apostle in Hebrews 11, to the condition of human perfection.  Didn’t Happen  

     1925 The year 1925 is here. With great expectation Christians have looked forward to this year. Many have confidently expected that all members of the body of Christ will be changed to heavenly glory during this year. This may be accomplished. It may not be. In his own due time God will accomplish his purposes concerning his people.  Christians should not be so deeply concerned about what may transpire this year.  Didn’t Happen  

     1925, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and other patriarchs were supposed to be back on earth as perfect humans.  Didn’t Happen   NOTE:  The Society built "Beth Sarim", a palatial home for them, BUT since they did not appear, the President of the Society moved in.

     1931 There was a measure of disappointment on the part of Jehovah's faithful ones on earth concerning the years 1917, 1918, and 1925, which disappointment lasted for a time … and they also learned to quit fixing dates.  This one was right on; DON’T FIX DATES

     1941 Receiving the gift, the marching children clasped it to them, not a toy or plaything for idle pleasure, but the Lord's provided instrument for most effective work in the remaining months before Armageddon.  Well Armageddon didn’t happen either

     Bible False Prophets:  In the NT there was a guy named Bar-Jesus mentioned as a false prophet as well as a woman named Jezebel who called herself a prophet. Then there was a guy named Simon the Magician who tried to buy the Holy Spirit.  There was also a Lying Prophet who said he got a message from God through an angel, thereby tricking another Prophet to disobey God. [4]

     TEST THE PROPHETS; that’s what we are told; that many false prophets have gone out into the world.[5]   There are THREE TEST for a True Prophet.

 

1)      Doctrines: If they are able to give signs and wonders, but their teaching contradicts the doctrines of Moses concerning the one true God, they are a False Prophet.

2)     Prophecy:  If 100% of what they say does not come to pass then they are a False Prophet.

3)     Morals:  If their lifestyle is immoral or their message strengthens the hands of the evil doer then they are a False Prophet.

 

     Bible:  Any prophet that speaks on God’s behalf PRESUMPTUOUSLY will DIE; think about that one; speaking presumptuously of God.[6]

 

Evangelism

     JW Evangelism is spread door to door, being taught that they are under a biblical command to engage in public preaching.  The distribution of Watchtower literature is the ruse of getting a BIBLE STUDY started with you.  They are trained with “flow chart theology” to redirect your questions to verses in the Bible that will eventually drill down in defense of JW dogma…

     The sole purpose is that the student will be baptized and become a member of the JW or to say it another way; their purpose is to PROSELYTIZE and Recruit, not teach the scriptures.  My first cousin opened her doors to a JW Bible study which was discontinued after a few weeks because she did not show promise for membership.

     They use their own NWT Bible; the New World Translation which CORRECTS THE ERRORS in the inspired word of God; the KJV Bible.  Did you know that four of the five JW translators did not know Greek nor Hebrew, but it was said that they were “experiencedJW followers therefore anointed to do the work.

    

Jesus - The JW version

     JW Michael the Archangel was the first thing created by God, who then in turn created the heavens, earth and man.  Michael then came back in human form as baby Jesus.

     Bible There is a clear distinction between Angels and Jesus.  No Angel is ever worshipped in scripture.  Angels are called “Sons of God”; Jesus is called “THE Son of God”.[7]   Scripture shows that Michael the Archangel deferred his authority to Jesus.[8]

     JW Jesus did not become the Messiah until the age of 30.

     Bible Jesus was BORN the Messiah.  For unto you is born this day in the city of David, a SAVIOR, who is Christ the Lord”.[9]

     JW When Christ died, His body WAS NOT RESURRECTED, but dissolved into gases and disappeared forever.  After three days he materialized in a FAKE BODY with FAKE NAIL PRINTS just so His disciples would believe.

     Bible Jesus appeared not to just the twelve disciples, but to OVER 500 Believers at one time and Thomas put his finger into His wounds.[10]

     JW Jesus returned INVISIBLY to earth in 1914 and has now returned to heaven until the millennium, when the dead will be resurrected and have a chance for eternal salvation by following the principals of the Jehovah Witnesses.

     Bible When Christ returns in the clouds EVERY EYE WILL SEE HIM, he WILL NOT be invisible.[11]

 

JW The time is at hand – Page 99 – Invisible Return of Christ

We consider it an established truth that the final end of the kingdoms of this world, and the full establishment of the Kingdom of God, will be accomplished by the end of A.D. 1914" … THE 'BATTLE OF THE GREAT DAY OF GOD ALMIGHTY' (Rev. 16:14), which will end in A.D. 1914 with the complete overthrow of earth's present ruler ship,

IS ALREADY COMMENCED"

 

JW 1 Thessalonians 4:16 - Jesus is the Archangel Michael
16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an
ARCHANGEL, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. (NKJV)

 

Trinity       

     Everyone agrees that scriptures says that there is ONLY ONE GOD, but what’s in debate is God’s sovereignty to present Himself in THREE other forms of persons.

     JW theology states that God is a single person not a trinity.  Trinitarianism is a demonic doctrine and the pastors that teach this are anti-Christ’s and their churches are run by Satan.

     JW find it easy enough to believe that H2O can present itself in three mediums, Liquid, Ice and Steam, but yet reject the Sovereign God who made the H2O, that He cannot present Himself in three persons.

     The Bible: Jesus gave the Great Commission and said to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

The Father is God; but, the Father is not the Son, nor the Holy Spirit.

The Son is God; but, the Son is not the Father, nor the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit is God; but, the Holy Spirit is not the Father, nor the Son.

     Paul embraced the Trinity when he said; “the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all”.  There is overwhelming EVIDENCE in scripture that the Trinity is The Father, Son and Holy Spirit; they are THREE DISTINCT PERSONS of God. [12]

     There is a trinity of primary colors; Red, Green, and Blue: All the rest of the colors are a derivation from them.  Pure White is made up of all the colors; darkness is the absence of all colors.  God’s word contains all the colors; the more we read God’s Word, the further from darkness we get and the closer to pure white light we become.  SELAH

     In the beginning before anything else existed the Trinity was; God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.  It’s in the Book

Matthew 28:19 – Great Commission; Father, Son & Holy Spirit
19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the
FATHER and of the SON and of the HOLY SPIRIT,

(ESV)

1 Corenthians 12:4-6 – Same Spirit, Same Lord, Same God

4 There are different kinds of gifts, but the same (Holy) Spirit.

5 There are different kinds of service, but the same (Son) Lord.

6 There are different kinds of working, but the same (Father) God works all of them in all men. NIV

The Cross

     The Greek and Latin words corresponding to "crucifixion" applied to many different forms of painful execution: impaling on a stake into their private parts; picture a sharp pole impaled up the buttocks into the torso of the body; then there was the simple affixing to a tree, or affixing to an upright pole and then there was the combination of affixing the person to an upright pole and a crossbeam.  Some have the condemned affixed with their head down to the ground while others stretch out their arms above their head on the gibbet which was only one vertical stake, called in Latin “crux simplex”.

     JW when Christ died, His body was not resurrected, but it dissolved into gases and disappeared forever.  After three days he appeared in a fake body so His disciples would believe. 

     JW do not use the cross in worship because they believe Jesus died on a stake, not a cross and furthermore the cross is a pagan SEX SYMBOL of worship; ALL buildings or persons displaying the cross are likewise pagan.

     JW believes that PAGANS used the cross as a religious symbol before the time of Christ. 

     Bible: Although this is true, there is no evidence that Christians intentionally borrowed the cross from any cultic pagan religion.  Two intersecting lines are simple and are very common throughout all of history.  You can see it in a plow, an anchor and a sail mast.  The Christian Cross is a “distinct feature” of Christian art.

     JW reject the notion that Jesus was crucified on a cross in favor of an upright pole or stake using Paul’s expression of Jesus dying “on a tree” as their defense.

     JW further point out that for the first 300 years after the death of Christ that there is no evidence of Christians utilized the cross in worship.  It was when the PAGAN Emperor Constantine became a convert to the Christian faith that the cross was promoted as a Christian symbol.

     JW literature states that “apparently the cross was used to make it easier for pagans to accept Christianity”.

     JW believe that True Christians do not use the Cross in worship because it is of pagan origin and linked with nature worship and pagan sex rites.  

    

     HOWEVER most historians believe that the cross was most likely an upright vertical beam that was already set in the ground at the place of execution.   It was already notched on the top to accept a “cross beam” that the condemned would be tied to.  It would then be hoisted up and dropped securely onto the fitted notch which would then formed a “T” shape.

     In some cases, the condemned was forced to carry the crossbeam to the place of execution. A whole cross would weigh well over 300 pounds, but the crossbeam would not be quite as burdensome, varying in weight between 40 to a 100 pounds.  Wikipedia  

     Normally only the horizontal crossbeam of the Roman cross was carried strapped across the shoulders.  We don’t know if it was this beam or the whole cross that Jesus labored and struggled under.

 

     Recent "NEW LIGHT"; the Watchtower now admits they are not certain about the cross, but will continue to deny it anyway.  NOTE; originally the watchtower claimed it WAS a cross...

 

JW Galatians 3:13 –Not a Cross, it was a tree
13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us—for it is written,

Cursed is everyone who is HANGED ON A TREE

(ESV)

JW Deuteronomy 21:22 – Hang on a tree, not a cross
22And if a man has committed a crime punishable by death and he is put to death, and you
HANG HIM on a TREE,

(ESV)

 

The JW 144,000

     JW Jesus Christ, is NOT the Mediator between Jehovah God and ALL mankind.  He is the Mediator between his heavenly Father, Jehovah God, and the nation of SPIRITUAL ISRAEL.

     Spiritual Israel is limited to only 144,000 "anointed" JW members, who will be resurrected or transferred at death, to live in heaven and rule over earth with Christ; they will have IMMORTAL LIFE and spirit bodies.

     Bible: but to ALL who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.[13]

     JW In addition to the 144,000; a SEPARATE CLASS of JW members known as the "great multitude," will have just EVERLASTING LIFE and resurrected bodies which still need to eat and drink and will live in a paradise restored on earth.   By implication, the millions of other professing Christians; will remain dead in their sins.

     Bible: There is only one God, and there is one mediator between God and ALL men, the Son of God, Christ Jesus.[14]  The 144,000 are God’s special End Time Evangelist on EARTH, they are not in heaven and they are ALL Jews, not Gentiles.[15]  It’s in the Book  

JW – Desire for Peace and Security

Page 9-12 – Jesus is Mediator to only the limited 144,000

It is as the apostle Paul wrote to his Christian fellow worker: "There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, a man, Christ Jesus." (1 Timothy 2:5).  Was Moses the mediator between Jehovah God and mankind in general? No, he was the mediator between the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and the nation of their fleshly descendants. Likewise, the Greater Moses, Jesus Christ, is not the Mediator between Jehovah God and all mankind. He is the Mediator between his heavenly Father, Jehovah God, and the nation of spiritual Israel, which is limited to only 144,000 members.

 

Legalism – Rules

     JW have self-made traditional legalistic restrictions:

Must not participate in politics.

Must refuse to vote.

Must refuse to join the military.

Must refuse to salute the flag because it is a symbol of idolatry.

Must refuse to sing the national anthem. 

Must refuse to celebrate birthdays or Christmas or civil events; otherwise it brings on the condemnation of God.

Must have a schedule to canvass door to door and solicit contributions and turn in reports.

Must use the name of the true God JEHOVAH for their prayers to be heard; no salvation is possible without using the name JEHOVAH.

If you leave the organization, you are an apostate and are to be shunned; your remaining family will not be allowed to speak to you.

     Bible: Jesus gave us a new Covenant, to be free of the legalism of the 613 laws of the Old Covenant.  The Apostle Paul asked; why would you want to turn back again to the weak and beggarly elements, and desire to be in bondage to legalism again?

Galatians 4:9 – Free from the weak & beggarly elements of legalism
9 But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you turn again to
THE WEAK AND BEGGARLY ELEMENTS, to which you desire again to be in BONDAGE? (NKJV)

Blood Transfusions

     JW refuse blood transfusions, which they consider a violation of God's law based on their interpretation of the scriptures. If a JW takes a blood transfusion willingly, it results in his eternal death.

     Bible:  Scripture speaks of VIOLENCE and SLAUGHTER of an animal’s blood, not the FREE WILL giving of blood to save a life.  When a blood transfusion is given, no one lost their life, but a life might be saved by the process.  Eating blood and a blood transfusion are NOT morally equivalent; they are opposite.

     Jesus said “Then are you also WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING? Do you NOT see that whatever goes into a person from outside cannot defile him, since it enters NOT HIS HEART but his stomach, and is expelled?” (Thus he declared all foods clean.)

     A transfusion of blood is different, the blood stays blood, bringing life and oxygen to the body, it is not broken down in the digestive system; eating blood and blood transfusions are not even remotely the same thing.  It’s a sad thing to ponder how many needless lives are lost because of this false teaching.

JW Acts 15:28-29 –- Abstain from Blood
28 For it has seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay on you no greater burden than these requirements:
29 that you abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what has been strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell.”

(ESV)

JW Genesis 9:4 –- Don’t eat flesh with blood
4 But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood.

(ESV)

JW Leviticus 17:10 –- Anyone who eats blood will be cut off
10 If any one of the house of Israel or of the strangers who sojourn among them eats any blood, I will set my face against that person who eats blood and will cut him off from among his people

(ESV).

JESUS Mark 7:18-19 – Blood enters the stomach & is expelled
18 And he said to them, “Then are you also without understanding? Do you not see that
WHATEVER GOES INTO A PERSON FROM OUTSIDE CANNOT DEFILE HIM,
19 since it enters NOT HIS HEART but his stomach, and is expelled?” (Thus he declared all foods clean.)

(ESV)

 

At Death

     JW The human soul ceases to exist at death; eternal punishment of the lost is ANNIHILATION.  A loving God would not send anyone to burn in hell fire for eternity.

     Annihilationism is the belief that the final judgement will result in unsaved souls being completely destroyed rather than being subjected to eternal punishment.

     Bible: There is no annihilation, just eternal life somewhere.  The accursed will go away into ETERNAL PUNISHMENT and the righteous will go into ETERNAL LIFE.[16]

Matthew 25:46 – The accursed will go into eternal punishment
46 And these (accursed) will go away into
ETERNAL PUNISHMENT, but the righteous into ETERNAL LIFE.” (ESV)

 

The Return of Jesus

     JW:  Jesus has already returned, it happened October 1874 AD and Christ is already gathering His elect. “Consequently the Kingdom, as represented in our Lord, and the sleeping saints already fitted and prepared and found worthy to be members of "his body," the "bride", was set up in 1878 AD”.  They claim Jesus returned invisibly to earth in 1914 and has now returned to heaven till the millennium, when the dead will be resurrected and have a chance for eternal salvation by following the principals of the Jehovah Witnesses.

     Bible:  If anyone tells you, “There He is, out in the desert”, DO NOT GO OUT; or, `Here He is, in the inner rooms”, DO NOT BELIEVE IT.  For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.  Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour.  DON’T LET ANYONE DECEIVE YOU in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, (the Anti-Christ) the man doomed to destruction. [17]

JW Studies in Scripture

Page 621-622 - Jesus Christ returned October 1874 AD

But now we are in the end of this Gospel age, and the Kingdom is being established or set up. Our Lord, the appointed King, is now present, since October 1874, A.D., according to the testimony of the prophets, to those who have ears to hear; and the formal inauguration of his kingly office dates from April 1878 A.D.: and the first work of the Kingdom, as shown by our Lord, in his parables and prophecy (the gathering of "his elect"), is now in progress. "The dead in Christ shall rise first, "explained the Lord through the Apostle; and the resurrection of the Church shall be in a moment* Consequently the Kingdom, as represented in our Lord, and the sleeping saints already fitted and prepared and found worthy to be members of "his body," the "bride," was set up in 1878; and all that remains to be done for its completion is the "gathering together unto the Lord' of those of the "elect" who are alive and remain--whose trial is not yet complete.

 

The Take Away

     JW God does not know all things

    Bible: God is ALL knowing; He sees us wherever we are and what we are doing and knows the motives in our heart for our actions.  He knows the names of the stars and what’s happening in Hell.[18]

     JW God can’t be but in one place at a time. 

     Bible:  God is ALL present; everywhere at once.  He cannot be contained in heaven or in earth.  He is ALL present in the everyday life of each person, all the time.[19]

WHAT DOES GOD SAY about someone who brings a different Gospel to your home?

Exclude from the fellowship those who speak contrary to the Gospel and cause divisions and offenses.[20]  

AVOID these people who deceive the hearts of the simple.  It is possible for folks to look like they are supporting the Gospel of Christ when actually that are possessed by an evil spirit.

     Withdraw from “Brothers in Christ” who are deceived and drawn away from the Gospel.  Do not count them as the enemy yet, but WARN them so that they will return to the truth.  There are many deceivers in the world who no not confess that Jesus is the Son of God, they are of the Antichrist.[21]

     Don’t even “do lunch” with people in the fellowship who talk a different Gospel.  Do not even sit at the same table with them for lunch.[22]  If a man calls himself a brother in Christ, but lives in sin, have nothing to do with him. Cast them out of the body, leave them to Satan’s followers that thy might see the light and their spirit be saved.  Purge them out, that the body of Christ might be pure.  

     Don’t let them in your house; if someone life does not live in the doctrine of Christ, then he doesn’t have God in his life. [23]

     Don’t even shake his hand; if you welcome him, you share in his evil deeds.  If you want to be friends with those who do not receive the PURE Gospel, then you make yourself an enemy of God.[24]

     CURSE (excommunicate; put out of the body) any man or Angel that preaches a JESUS “PLUS” Gospel.[25]  Satan uses the scriptures against the Christian by quoting, “Blessing and Cursing” should not come out of a Christian’s mouth, but I say to you this is in reference to people made in the likeness of God.[26]  Any person that teaches a different Gospel is not walking in the likeness of God and should be cursed, he is an antichrist.[27]

     NOTE: In the last days, because the JW did not receive the love of the Gospel of Christ; God will send a strong delusion to those that desire these lying wonders and signs and they will ultimately be condemned and separated from God.[28]  It’s in the Book  

 

Galatians 1:6-12 – Let him be eternally condemned; damned

6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to

A DIFFERENT GOSPEL

7 which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ.

8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you,

LET HIM BE ETERNALLY CONDEMNED!

9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted,

LET HIM BE ETERNALLY CONDEMNED!

11 I want you to know, brothers that the gospel I preached is not something that man made up.

12 I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.
