Is JW.Org the true religion?

  Let's look at that scripture, ISA 43:10, in context.

  Note:

  Isa 43:10 "'You are my witnesses,' declares Jehovah" is a reminder about what God had done and will do.

  Vs 1: God reminds them that he bought them and they belong to him. (Jacob and Israel)

  Vs 2: God promises to protect them

  Vs 3: God reminds them that Egypt was their ransom

  Vs 4: God tells them they are precious in His eyes

  Vs 5-7: God assures them of his continued being with them

  Vs 8-9: Now, here's the key: God issues a challenge to the nations and asks them to produce THEIR witnesses to see who is right: "Let all the nations assemble in one place,..."

  "Let them present their witnesses to prove themselves right"

  Vs 10: God then says to the Israelites, "YOU are my witnesses."

  This wasn't about naming a group of people. This was about who is right and who is wrong. Who could produce witnesses for themselves that could truthfully claim to have been a saviour, protector, etc.

  This was God's challenge to the nations, and He names the Israelites as HIS witnesses to that fact.

  Then Isa 62:2 adds "The nations will see your righteousness, O woman, And all kings your glory.

  And you will be called by a new name, Which Jehovah's own mouth will designate"

  This was fulfilled in Acts 11:26 - "the disciples were by divine providence called Christians."

  As already stated Isiah 43 doesn't prove Jehovah's Witnesses are the true religion. The Watchtower printing corporation uses that scripture out of context as proof they are the true religion, as shown by a quick reading of the context surrounding the verse used it becomes very clear.

  The Watchtower corporation scriptural exegesis is extremely self serving even more so than other religions, they take everything literally(when it suits them), and with extreme bias that they alone know what the bible "really" says and all the other religions have Satan controlling them and they alone are the true religion. It is wishful thinking that inspires their scriptural exegeses, which has caused them to print many dates for the end of the world to come and make the Governing Body rule with Jesus. They are also in very strong denial and will violently Disfellowship any member who tries to show them where they are wrong, no one of Jehovah's Witnesses can question their claims and not get DF'd.

  It’s a true commercialized false prophet.

  Since Jesus instructed his true followers to not listen to men who he didn’t give them the things to say and also admonished his followers to not set a time upon god’s own sacred time . The WTS has always been an active apostate sining organization .

  Some have even said its guided by Satan, the father of the lie and deceiver.

  Quote - Some have even said its guided by Satan, the father of the lie and deceiver. – End quote

  [2 Thessalonians 2:4 He is set in opposition and lifts himself up over everyone who is called “god” or an object of reverence, so that he sits down in the temple of The God, publicly showing himself to be a god…9 But the lawless one’s presence is according to the operation of Satan with every powerful work and lying signs and portents 10 and with every unrighteous deception for those who are perishing, as a retribution because they did not accept the love of the truth that they might be saved. 11 So that is why God lets an operation of error go to them, that they may get to believing the lie, 12 in order that they all may be judged because they did not believe the truth but took pleasure in unrighteousness.]

  There cannot be a True Religion, unless you have a very strange definition of "Truth"

  Truth to me is that which is backed up by solid Facts and Evidence, facts and evidence that will stand up to any scrutiny and see off any challenge.

  No Religion can do this. Religion and gods etc come from the imagination of Man.

  All religions are an organized agreement to set of lies substantiated only upon human ignorance.

  JWS claim to be by its leaders the most righteous and they have the most accurate interpretation of the bible.
  

  Well these men are also trying to proliferate their own published literature which they live off the sales so one can expect an endeavoring biased, particularly when they said that god is guiding these men exclusively and that's why they have the most accurate interpretation (1919) .......more expressed lies

  If one were to research the Watchtower Corporation (Publishing house) going back 100 years or more, its obvious god wasn't guiding these men at all and that they were guided by solely by their own self assertive drive for power and money.

  I have always found it odd they refer to themselves as Jehovah witness instead of just Christians. Just the fact they think of themselves as a complete different religion.

  I grew up Pentecostal and we just thought of other churches as our fellow brothers in Christ , unless they were one of the cults.

  As for the statement Jehovah and Jesus completely trust the slave, so should you ? Wow that is just disgusting . Just wow.
