1 | Tara1 - Is Jesus true or false god? | OT general | MrsBinGA | 107396 | ||
Thank you for the compliment. If Tara1 is studying with JWs then she definitely is not reading the Bible - she's reading their materials which, as you know, is promoting their doctrine. JWs are not encouraged to read the Bible for themselves because only the "faithful and wise servant" (Watchtower) has the "authority" to interpret the Scriptures and then give the JW their "meat in due season." How sad that anyone would allow another person, organization, or church to keep them from a personal relationship with the Lord. Yesterday I was listening to an audio tape by Mick VanBuskirk (C.A.R.I.S. ministry) on the Triune God. Excellent, especially the Scriptures showing that the Holy Spirit is a Person, and not an "active force" as JWs are taught. Hopefully Tara1 will read our posts and the Holy Spirit will open her eyes to the truth of His Word. Blessings to you! Mrs. B |

2 | Tara1 - Is Jesus true or false god? | OT general | JCrichton | 107437 | ||
Hi, Mrs. B! You are so right! It baffles me to witness them reading or listening to me reading the Bible and still they cannot use reason to go beyond their indoctrination. Most their problem lies on their inability to see God as infinite power--they want to package God and the Bible in simple language and thought: i.e.: When reading the Old Testament they dicover the Spirit of God as an "active force" and they file that bit of information away in the JW user dictionary; when ever the word Spirit (Holy Spirit/Ghost) appears in the Bible, they return to that reference! Having such a limited spiritual vocabulary brings them to the impass of fellowship: they want to be Christians, but they do not want to accept Jesus Commands! We must not let their genuine fervor be wasted; we must share the fulness of the Scriptures in hope that at least one JW will see the light and he/she would be saved and bring others to salvation in Christ Jesus, who is God, through the grace of the Holy Spirit, who is also God! God Bless! |
