Critical Thinking and Jehovah’s Witnesses, - why such a challenge?

[@CP40-zd4hw]

Sorry Jack but any person who starts with “anyone who thinks they know the Bible better than me” is not worth your precious time. However I see and appreciate the effort to offer those people the humanity they seem to have lost to their ego and their need to be right. Thank you for this much needed info! Respect from California ☀️

Thank you. They never show up. It’s like dog barking before you open a gate. 😆

Most information is biased. The trick is to not only seek several sources but also to deliberately seek out opposing opinions. Then you can make a good evaluation for yourself.

Good point

Yes they are very clever making everyone be a teacher of the doctrines. That's how they get intelligent ppl to buy into such stupidity. I am ashamed to admit I bought into this crap.

I appreciate this particular content, very good advice, observe results ( HONESTLY) free from letting previous held belief Bias acceptance or denial of results. Jeremiah 23:27 ‘They intend on changing my name, like their fathers did with Ba’El.’ This means a second time YaH’s / JaH’s OveJaH (sheep) will change the divine name, the First wA when the title ‘LorD’ was accepted. Ba’El is ‘Lord’ a Canaanite Diety. The second time when the name Gee’Hova(Jehovah) was accepted and used Raymundus Martini invented the name Jehovah in 1278 C.E. The divine name published 1984 page 17. YHVVH = ‘HæVHeY = JaHVæH’

what you believe can be a burden that you carry

That’s true

Anyone here who thinks they know the Bible better than me please feel free to bring it on. The identity of the most high God is the best place to start. Luke Ch.1:32NIV"He will be great and will be called the Son of the MOST HIGH. The LORD God will give him the throne of his father David," John Ch.10:29NIV"My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than ALL c ; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. " The God and Father of Jesus christ is the MOST HIGH God and thus is co equal to no one. John Ch.8:54NIV"Jesus replied, “If I glorify myself, my glory means nothing. My Father, whom you claim as your God, is the one who glorifies me. " According to Jesus his God and Father is the one and only God of Israel . By common consent the God and Father of Jesus is not triune. Therefore the one and only God of Israel is not triune. John ch.20:17NIV"Jesus said, “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’ ”" The God and Father of Jesus is not triune by common consent . The God and Father of Jesus is also the God and Father of Jesus' disciples . Therefore the God and Father of Jesus' disciples is not triune. Matthew Ch.24:36NIV"“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, f but ONLY the Father. " ONLY the God and Father of Jesus Christ is omniscient thus only the God and Father of Jesus Christ is the MOST HIGH God. Roman's Ch.1:9EHV"To be sure, (the)God, whom I serve with my spirit by proclaiming the gospel of his Son, is my witness to how constantly I make mention of you. In all my prayers, " Roman's Ch.3:30NIV"since there is only ONE(Grk.eis) God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith. " Paul was an actual monotheist and thus rendered exclusive sacred service to one most high God. Whom he clearly identifies as the God and Father of Jesus Christ. Matthew Ch.16:16NKJV"Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”" not merely the living Father but the living God to whom all believers owe EXCLUSIVE Devotion/Sacred Service. Malachi Ch.2:10NIV"Do we not all have one Father b ? Did not one God create us? Why do we profane the covenant of our ancestors by being unfaithful to one another?" The God and Father of Jesus Christ is the only true God.

@@aservantofJEHOVAH7849 I was really hoping you would be brave enough to have a friendly discussion. I’m definitely not looking into any moments of conflict, discomfort or embarrassment. You would be a guest in my show so I would be most respectful to you. If there is a question you don’t know the answer to simply say: I don’t know. 🤷‍♂️ If there is something I don’t know I’ll be honest about. No harm done. This subject is very deep and not possible to discuss in a comment forum. It’s really too bad you won’t join me. I keep looking
