Everybody refers to the black book as the bible, not the Warwick apostles .Silver book refered to holy scripture. Renamed father- Jehovah ,Jesus - Michael , FDS as themselves , ect ect. There is not enough room on my computer to have a comprehensive list.

1) God's Grace > God's undeserved kindness
JWs do not understand this concept as they consider their 'works' (hours spent preaching) to be fundamental in whether they will be judged worthy of entering God's kingdom.
2) True Christian = Jehovah's Witness, not follower of Christ

They say podium not pulpit.
They say information board not bulletin board. That's because the word bulletin derives from the Latin "bulla" which originally meant a papal edict.
