In order to "Scripturally justify" J.F. Rutherford's rebranding of the Bible Students by the creation of a designer name which made them stand out from other Bible Students, the NWT deceptively misuses a verse to perpetuate the falsehood of the unscriptural name, "Jehovah's" Witnesses!
(James 2:7) "They blaspheme the fine name by which YOU were called,* do they not?"
*This is cross-referenced with..............(John 17:6) "I have made your (Jehovah's) name manifest........." FALSE!!!!!!!!
Why isn't it truthfully and accurately cross-referenced with -
(1 Peter 4:14,16) "If YOU are being reproached for the name of Christ, YOU are happy ..........But if [he suffers] as a Christian, let him not feel shame, but let him keep on glorifying God in this name.
and
(Acts 11:26) "and it was first in Antioch that the disciples were by divine providence called Christians."
Every Christian was to witness for Christ - not for God!!
