The Jehovah's Witnesses believe the title given to the Lord Jesus as 'Firstborn' is in reference to Himself being created. However as we study the scriptures we can see that it has a greater meaning than being created.

And for those who are confused... I am not a Jehovah's Witnesses. I am a believer in the Lord Jesus, my faith is in the finished work of the Lord Jesus death, burial and resurrection. I am redeemed through His blood alone, and my trust is in Him.
Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast."I am more than happy having discussions, however the above picture is plain ignorant and doesn't add any spiritual discussion onto the conversation.

Jehovah's Witnesses... Who sent the Star of Bethlehem?
by JW Answers injehovah's witnesses... who sent the star of bethlehem?.
the watchtower teach their followers that the star of bethlehem was sent by non other than satan... however as we take a look at the scriptures by comparing spiritual things with spiritual we begin to see that the star of bethlehem was not sent by satan, but used for the glory of god.a seasonal message to end the year.. watch now here :.

On a last note, I will comment on the video here.
The scriptures define the Star being sent by God by way of guiding the Wise men. As you have seen from the video, the Watchtower associate this star to Satan, however the wise men from the bible associate this star to Jesus. It seems that Satan wants the same glory as the Lord Jesus.
In other bible versions, Satan is described as having the same title as the Lord Jesus...
Revelation 22:16 KJV
"I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star."Isaiah 14:12 NIV
"How you have fallen from heaven,
morning star, son of the dawn!
You have been cast down to the earth,
you who once laid low the nations!"As you will all be aware, Satan tried to become like God in wanting to be like Him and sit on His throne, yet God abased him by casting him out of heaven.
The purpose of this video was to explain that God receives this glory. We can all throw our own opinions on the matter and our own understanding on the matter, but whatever is recorded in the Word of God is what stands, not our understandings outside scripture:
Proverbs 3:5 KJV
"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding."
1 Corinthians 2:5 KJV
"That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God"As we look throughout the bible, God uses objects in which He has power over to guide His own people, as well as bringing glory unto His name.
The bible gives a prophecy in the book of Numbers, which I believe first of all is speaking of David but as most prophecies described in scripture this could also have a double meaning...
Numbers 24:17 KJV
"I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth.My point being is this, there is MORE evidence in the scriptures (not my own understanding) that point that the Star was controlled, used and came into existance for the Glory of God. There is nowhere in the entire word of God which explains this star was/is satanic. To say otherwise, is pointing your own understanding upon the situation recorded in Matthew 2.
The bible also explains this...
Psalm 19:1 KJV
"The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork."The heavens do declare the glory of God.
When the wise men came to Jesus, the glorified Him, worshipped Him, and praised Him. This is not an act of Satan is it? This is the act of someone bringing Glory to God.
God bless.

Hey guys,
First of all, let me extend my apologies to all. I want to assure that I am not here to "plug" my videos and run lol. I have interacted in this forum before, and do not have a problem interacting with others and discussing the scriptures.
Secondly, I post these videos all over the internet, to name only a few (Facebook (in about ten groups), Instagram, Twitter, Pintrest, Flickr, This website, YouTube, Google+ and sometimes other video websites). Please understand, if I were to comment on all my posts on all these websites, I would have to quit my full time job and respond to all, this is why I try and limit where I comment.
I usually comment actively (most days, if not every day) on Facebook and within the Jehovah's Witnesses groups that I am involved in there.
However, to keep you all happy, I will try and comment after the New Year on this website to keep active. It is good to discuss the scriptures, and I for one am not shy in doing so, therefore my reason to apologise publically.
For those who observe the Christmas holiday, have a good one, and will speak after the New Year. -

The Purity of God's word
by JW Answers ingod says otherwise.
therefore who will you trust... the word of god or satan?
satan uses many people today to corrupt the things of god, as well as god's word.

Satan hates what God loves and also hates the things of God. Satan wants the people to believe that the Bible has been defiled and you cannot really trust it. God says otherwise. Satan says "Hath God really said?", God says "Thy word is truth". Therefore who will you trust... The Word of God or Satan? Satan uses many people today to corrupt the things of God, as well as God's word. Today can we take God at His word? Or does God's word contain any errors?

Jehovah's Witnesses and the Resurrection of Jesus Christ
by JW Answers inthe bodily resurrection of the lord jesus is pivotal for the christian faith, yet the jehovah's witnesses do not believe that the lord jesus christ rose again in a body.
the watchtower have taught their followers that the lord jesus christ rose again as a spirit creature, and that his body was disposed, disintegrated and dissolved by god the father.
in this video, i explain the differences to what the jehovah's witnesses teach and what god's word teaches, showing without any dispute that the watchtower organisation is false, and that we can always rely on god's word.
