The term Jehovah’s Witnesses sounded weird to me even when I was in that cult. Why does god need witnesses to prove his existence?
There is no need for anyone to create a movement called “Suns Witnesses” or “Moons Witnesses” – in order to prove its Existence and glorify it, because the sun and moon are evident to every species on earth.(Atleast for humans Sure)
But
the Almighty who created the sun and moon needs to have Witnesses? Weirdo?
I
think it’s a shame on an Almighty god to have a bunch of people going around
and performing some monotonous preaching and report the time preached, about the Almighties Existence
As
per Dictionary Witness as a noun form means
an individual who, being present, personally sees or perceives a thing;
a beholder, spectator, or eyewitness
As per the context of the word “Witness”, has any JW personally seen Jehovah in order to witness about him/her/It ? No.
JWs have coined their name from an ancient happening where Jehovah tells a bunch of people that they are his Witnesses. Even if this account is true, the people who then supposedly interacted with Jehovah, could only claim to be his Witnesses, in the truest sense.
How
can any JW claim to be the Witness of a god, which they have only read about
from an ancient book, whose authenticity is greatly debated?
