I will advise you start from the arrow head of their doctrine not always visible but the deadliest of all.

Jehovah's organization

It is the most deadliest of all their doctrine because Jehovah's organization = Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses = 11 gods.

Your approved association with Jehovah’s witnesses and by extension God = Jehovah's organization = Governing Body of Jehovah's requires accepting 101% that they are the only Channel to salvation.

If you can successfully find this teaching in the Bible and Jehovah’s witnesses readily convince you to agree to such teaching be ready to carry your burden after getting you isolated from your loves one before you get dumped when you no longer bow to your gods.

The question you need to ask do you need to be in a religious organization to be saved? Does God require you be a member of a Christian denomination to be saved? Is the organization of Jehovah's Witnesses from God and supported scripturally?

Exclusivity: Jehovah's Witnesses common denominator with other Christian denominations

by Longlivetherenegades in

one thread recently stated, the religious organization of jehovah's witnesses started as a protestant or pentecostal as it were then ended up being roman catholic in their mode of operations.

the evidence of their being exclusive is found in their own publications.... .

obviously, a basis for approved fellowship with jehovah’s witnesses cannot rest merely on a belief in god, in the bible, in jesus christ, and so forth.

Obviously, a basis for approved fellowship with Jehovah’s Witnesses cannot rest merely on a belief in God, in the Bible, in Jesus Christ, and so forth. The Roman Catholic pope, as well as the Anglican Archbishop of Canterbury, professes such beliefs, yet their church memberships are exclusive of each other. Likewise, simply professing to have such beliefs would not authorize one to be known as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses..... Watchtower April 1986

What can be drawn from the above as it applies to the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses and other Christian denominations

1. Approved fellowship with Jehovah’s Witnesses and other Christian denominations cannot rest merely on a belief in God, in the Bible, in Jesus Christ.

2. That The Roman Catholic pope, as well as the Anglican Archbishop of Canterbury, professes such beliefs, yet their church memberships are exclusive of each other is enough standing for Jehovah’s witnesses to be exclusive from other Christian denominations.

3. Jehovah's Witnesses agree to the fact that their are some beliefs unique to other Christian denominations which Jehovah’s witnesses often classify as false teachings and they used in labeling them false Christians but will not readily accept their own unique beliefs used to assert exclusivity are equally stated to be false.

4. Jehovah's Witnesses uses the template of Christendom aka Babylon the great in their mode of operation and therefore not different from those they love to condemn.

The Big Secret

by finishedmystery in

when the gb brought a formal end to all the type/antitypes in so many ways it could be said that they brought the religion to an end.

the other sheep/anointed teaching that leads to a two class religion was originally based on two antitypes--the jehu/jehonadab relationship and something about the cities of refuge.

in that 2014 annual meeting talk david splane even specifically stated that the cities of refuge has no antitype.

"JEHOVAH'S" witnesses: How could WE get the name so wrong????

by BoogerMan in

the "slave's" understanding of the scriptures must be correct, so here's a clarification: ©.

(matthew 10:18) ....before governors and kings for jehovah's sake, for a witness..... (mark 13:9) ...be put on the stand......for jehovah's sake, for a witness to them.

(luke 24:47, 48) .

WT JUNE 2025 MODESTLY accept what YOU do not know

pp.

14-19 just some quote and a few comments from me, very, very repetitious.

the gb seems to think that the rank and file came up the years 1914, 1925, 1975, generation (70-80 years from 1914=1994), overlapping generations.

Can any one of Jehovah's witnesses of note on this platform find a particular scripture that states clearly that one particular year, day or time will be the start of the last days.

More like the Bible stated clearly that one particular year or day or month when we do our calculations right will be the start of the last days.

I remember Ray Franz raising a question regarding the last days as it applies to the scriptures below.....

Acts 2: 14...Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd: “Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say. 15 These people are not drunk, as you suppose. It’s only nine in the morning! 16 No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: ''‘In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people.Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.

and

2 Timothy 3: 1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy

Ray Franz said.....

That the “last days” began in 1914, and that when the apostle Peter (at Acts 2:17) spoke of the last days as applying from Pentecost on, he did not mean the same “last days” that Paul did (at 2 Timothy 3:1)? Where?

Jehovah's witnesses love ensuring things are divided into two. Are we having two set of last days in the Bible?

WT June '25: Why Can't We Turn Studies Into Baptisms?

by raymond frantz in

https://youtu.be/t_mpdwsqpy0?si=okf4bsfsqfed0szp.

study article 27 under the title :"help bible students to take a stand for the truth" paragraph 1 *did you have reservations about becoming one of jehovah’s witnesses?

perhaps you were afraid that your workmates, friends, or family would turn against you.
