The Christian Bible is what insults JW's. Even the JW bible that says Jesus is absolutely God and Hell fire is eternal.

So only 11 take the Lord's Supper? I thought anyone who thought they were of the 144,000 could. Those big conventions you folk have and only 11 partake??

While we are at it, the number 144,000 was 12 squared times 1000--which covered all 12 tribes times 1000. If Judas is missing wouldn't the representation being 11 squared times 1000? Login 121000? Weren't the disciples a mirror of the number 12, which is why He chose 12, and why Matthias, and later Paul were chosen?

Rev 21:14
"And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb."

The tribes when they lost someone, were replaced --why isn't Judas replaced?

11 apostles were present at the Lords supper--Most of the anointed lived back then--there are a few thousand alive today who partake.

His name is called mighty God---Jehovah the only true God=almighty God.
Amen! Just as Jesus is the Mighty God! They are the same!

"a Child is born"
"a Son"
"Mighty God"

Isaiah 9

6 For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Isaiah prophesied that in the future Jesus would be born as a human, and that he would later be called Mighty God.

Is. 9:6 For a child has been born to us,
A son has been given to us;
And the rulership will rest on his shoulder.
His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.
7 To the increase of his rulership
And to peace, there will be no end,
On the throne of David and on his kingdom
In order to establish it firmly and to sustain it
Through justice and righteousness,
From now on and forever.
The zeal of Jehovah of armies will do this.

Since Jesus was exalted by his own God, it is obvious that he does not have the same position as him. That is why Jehovah, the Most High God, is called God Almighty... and that title no one had to give him.

Eso. 2:2 Then God said to Moses: “I am Jehovah. 3 And I used to appear to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as God Almighty, but with regard to my name Jehovah I did not make myself known to them.

Do you recognize the diference between Mighty God and God Almighty? :woohoo!:

And "Jehovah" and Jesus are the ONLY one called "Mighty God". Get a clue. They are the same being.

Jesus has a God. Did you know that, or no one told you? :rolleyes:

Rev. 3:12 The one who conquers—I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will by no means go out from it anymore, and I will write upon him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the New Jerusalem that descends out of heaven from my God, and my own new name.

Pastors in Christendom do not teach that to their flocks. :oops:

Jesus said that his brothers have the same God he has:

John 20:17 Jesus said to her: “(...) go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and your God.’

Those who do not have the same God as Jesus cannot be his brothers. :hmhehm

I hope God will help you out of the darkness. Jesus said--The Father is the only true God--those teaching anything else stand in opposition to Jesus. We know what the bible calls those.

Jesus taught who is the God of the true worshipers:

John 4:23 Nevertheless, the hour is coming, and it is now, when the true worshippers will worship the Father with spirit and truth, for indeed, the Father is looking for ones like these to worship him.

:contemplate: From his words I learned that many people do not worship the Father and God of Jesus because they are not the kind of people that the Father seeks to worship him.

Thomas was Jesus' disciple. He knew Jesus personally. Who are you? You're just another Kingdom Hall victim.

Jeremiah spoke of God as "the God of all flesh". When Jesus took on flesh (I don't mean Michael, I mean Jesus), He took on all that comes with living in flesh. So He was baptized by John in a baptism of repentance, though He had no sin, and He worshiped the Father, though being Himself God.

Philippians 2:5-8 KJV
5) Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6) Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7) But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8) And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

He became obedient. What was He before? Disobedient? Or Sovereign? He is sovereign God.

He took on Him the form of a servant. And before that? Sovereign LORD.

Philippians 2:10-11 KJV
10) That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11) And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Isaiah 45:21-23 KJV
21) Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me.
22) Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.
23) I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

Unto Who? Unto Jesus. Unto YHWH. Jesus.

Acts 4:10-12 KJV
10) Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
11) This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
12) Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

That name is not Michael, it is Jesus.

Much love!

Jesus is the mean of salvation because Jehovah decided that:

Acts 13:23 According to his promise, from the offspring of this man, God has brought to Israel a savior, Jesus.

Do you know the origin of the word "Jehovah"? That this is not a Biblical name of God? It was devised by the Masoretic scribes by taking the consonants from YHWH and adding the vowel points from adonai. They did this not to "reveal God's real name", they did it so that when someone came to that word in the Hebrew text, that they wouldn't be able to, and wouldn't be tempted to try, to pronounce God's Name. They considered it too holy for anyone to say or think.

So the reality is that "Jehovah" is not God's revealed Name, it's a word that was created specifically for the purpose of PREVENTING people from knowing God's revealed Name. Were you aware of this?

Much love!
