It's actually quite similar with Islam: False Prophets - YouTube This was all prophesied. "There's just 3 little things we gotta disagree on" :Laughingoutloud:

Yes, and who is all of the judging done by? Who repays each one according to what they have done? Jesus! So it is Jesus speaking! For the Father judges no one at all

If I went around killing people in the name of TheHC, would that make you guilty? Similarly, just because some Christians have done bad things in the past, does not mean all Christians are bad. Are you calling me a murderer? Well, I suppose I am, since I've hated people in my heart, but so have...

First off, the numbers they used to show complications that arise from blood transfusions is seriously outdated. The medicine has improved significantly. But I would definitely argue that getting a few complications (which is now closer to 1 in 100) is a lot better than death. In an independent...

Then you disagree with what Jehovah's Witnesses teach. There is only one God, one beginning, one end. There can't be multiple beginnings, that's a contradiction. Thus Jesus and Jehovah are one God. JW.org also says that it is Jehovah speaking in Revelation 22:12-13, so if you accept that, you...

I did respond to you on the topic of being justified by faith. Either you're justified in your own eyes by your own deeds, or you know your righteousness is like filthy rags to God and your faith is in Christ to justify you, which results in good works. Everything else you said was honestly just...

Every creature, not some. If Jesus is a creature in heaven, he would be part of every created thing. Why then is he not part of every created thing, and is separate from them? And why is this creature receiving the exact same worship that God almighty is receiving? Jehovah’s Witnesses cannot...

Ah, so Daniel prophesied that God would cleanse the sinners and wash them. Isn't that exactly what I said? That Christ washed me clean, and I did nothing on my own? You are a whitewashed tomb. Self-righteous. And self-justified. Trusting in your own works and deeds for salvation. Jesus came to...

If you have to do something for a gift, it is not a gift. IT'S WORKS For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast - Ephesians 2:8-9 NOT BY WORKS I do not set aside the grace of God, for...

Indeed we must obey Jesus, but that's not what saves us. Obedience is a result of true saving faith. Through him we received grace and apostleship to call all the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith for his name’s sake. - Romans 1:5 The JWs have it backwards. They think it's the...

Yes, and those who trusted in their works to get into heaven (or the new Earth) will be told to depart. See my post directly above yours: AN OPEN LETTER TO JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES Hebrews 1:6 and Revelation 5:13 beg to differ. I know your translation corrupts Hebrews 1:6, but in Rev 5:13, Jesus is...

Okay let's go over this again: The definition of grace is undeserved favour. You will never deserve Christ's blood, nor could you possibly do anything to deserve it. It's a free gift. Obedience therefore cannot get you grace, that's a contradiction. For it is by grace you have been saved...

Also to be clear, repentance has nothing to do with works or the law. It's a change of mind and heart about your sinful nature: Is Repentance a Work? In order to receive the gift, you must turn to Christ and trust in Him to save you. In order to turn to Him, you must repent. How can you...

If you think his grace means you're given a free excuse to sin, then it just proves that you want to keep sinning deep down, and haven't repented. If you want God to judge you based on what you have done, then because you have sinned, he will have to punish you. Because if God is good, he has...

Well it all really comes down to self-righteousness. Every other religion makes you justified by what you do. Where in Christianity we're justified by what Christ did for us. JWs refuse to accept this component though, so even though they're closer to the truth than say a Muslim, it's also much...

No one doing all that in Jesus' name doesn't trust in Christ? That's exactly what it means. They weren't trusting in Jesus' undeserved sacrifice for their salvation, but in their works. And one would hardly get any response? Did you miss everything I just said to you? Try actually reading what...

Nope. You just added that in. Nowhere does it mention they trusted in Christ. That's actually what's completely missing. Why is faith enough? Because the object of our faith is enough. And who’s the object of our faith? As in what is our faith in? Jesus Christ. And since he is a sufficient...

Jehovah's Witnesses of course. I didn't realize JWs were essentially teaching the gnostic gospel. So the devil didn't do anything new, just repeated some old tricks. Also the gnostic gospels says the flesh is inherently evil, which isn't true. In the beginning God created Adam and Eve as...

Also interesting that you mention Matthew 7:22-23, because in another thread I wrote this: Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew...

How about this one? Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’ - Matthew 7:22-23...
