After researching the subject for several years, I have come to the conclusion that the JWs do not imitate Jesus as shown in the Greek Scriptures. Why? Jesus was a practicing Jew. This means he didn't eat pork, he observed the Sabbath and all the traditional Jewish customs. There is NO scripture in the Bible where JESUS DIRECTLY commanded any of his followers to cease from these observances. The JWs also say that they imitate Jesus because he preached to people. Again, they are mistaken in this regard because Jesus originally commanded his apostles to preach to the Jews only. It was Paul who later (long after Jesus was dead) commanded that the gentiles should hear the message and this happend after much debate. Logically, it would appear that the JWs are really imitating Paul not Jesus. If you read the Greek Scriptures carefully you will notice that James (Jesus brother) was a true follower of Jesus. In contrast to Paul, James followed his brother's footsteps and was considered the successor or at the very least a leader in the movement that followed after his brother's death.
The Jesus that JWs believe in is a creation of Mr. Rutherford, the WTS and a combination of Protestant/Evangelical perspectives.
