  Jesus as God. What do JW believe?

  by Th3ArCh0n in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've been looking into jehovah's witnesses beliefs and came up with a serious question, as i've found is that witnesses don't believe that jesus is god, same with the father.

  but even in the new world translation, isaiah 9:6 (one of the ancient prophecies of jesus christ) it says "for a child has been born to us,+.

  a son has been given to us;and the rulership* will rest on his shoulder.+his name will be called wonderful counselor,+ mighty god,+ eternal father, prince of peace.

  David_Jay, what do Jews believe " Olam Ha Ha" is, particularly Orthodox Jews.

  Where is it mentioned in the scriptures?

  Saying 'rest' in peace, or more often writing R.I.P after a deceased person's name, is primarily a way of showing respect to the dead person and the feelings of their relatives.

  Like so much of What we do ( toasts etc) Its nothing to do with belief and everything to do with the feelings of others ie toasting the Bride and groom is just showing a shared happiness and showing you wish them well on their wedding day.

  Watchtower seems to use all these micro manage behaviours to take every opportunity to make ordinary jw's feel different and put a big, rude divide between them and non jw's. Its cruel.

  Lets be honest, not a little leery of the resurrected ones????

  maybe i have watched too many zombie movies but i would sleep with one eye open, inquire to see what is your favored menu,do you sleep walk, are your body parts functioning properly (i would hate to shake your hand and it fall off).

  your wife never married after 10 years and now you are back, can you perform in the marriage bed?

  ?it would be hard for me to sleep at nights with someone that have been dead for over one year sleeping next to me.

  MOrpheus Whats worse is that because the wt dosent teach that people have unique souls nobody is "resurrected". They are instead copies of The original who think they are the original

• Yup. Different bodies *and* memories wiped so they don't remember their past with dead friends and loved ones.

  How is that the same person jw apologists?????

  That's the problem With Watchtower, no philosophers to think their absurd theology through. Its not for nothing mainstream religions came up with the non physical soul. There's no other logical option if its to be the eternal life of the *same* person
