How would you summarize the basic message of the Watchtower versus the Bible?

Watchtower: Everlasting life by being obedient to God's visible organisation on earth.

Bible: Eternal life through, in and with the Lord Jesus Christ.

Cofty: for me "imperfect" means we all make mistakes.

If you want to get into morality, sometimes for some reason we do things we know we shouldn't do, or fail to do something we know we should. It's part of being human.

Bible: Love your neighbor as yourself and your God with your whole heart.

WT: Be loyal, keep quiet, keep in subjection and sell literature.
