While there are factors pertaining to God that are unchangeable, others appear to be changeable. For instance, He does change His mind (see Jonah 3:10).

1. Elsewhere, God gave punishment to those that deserved it. Those that he had warned numerous times before of the consequences of their actions. They got what was coming to them, and it could have been avoided.
2. Tdogg,you said in your first post that either God sent his son down to Earth or God himself came down to Earth. But God coming down to Earth as the Messiah doesnt make sense, because when Jesus was on Earth, who was he praying to? -

"Christians are now under the New Covenant, which basically teaches that fellowship with God is through obedience to Christ's teachings and faith in his ransom sacrifice, not through the observance of law codes. The result is everlasting life. .... Under the New Covenant, there is one day which Jehovah reserves to exact justice and judgment for those who responded favorably or unfavorably to the New Covenant."WT teaches that only the annointed are under the new covenant, having Christ as their mediator. Regular JWs need the society's F&D slave.
So would that make regular JWs "christians" under the old covenant or NO covenant going by what the JWs speak of as the Good News. See Aid Book.Stacy
Typical JW reasoning.
