Jehovah's Witnesses - Men of God or a Cult?

Jehovah's Witnesses - A cult that believes that Jesus was created by God and is not actually God Himself but "a god."

I received this pamphlet on my doorstep this week. They show up occasionally and I usually throw them away but I decided to share it with you all this time.

I worked in a factory in California for 8 and a half years and the population of the factory was about 10% JW's. That's about 50 out of 500 people. We worked 12 hours shifts around the clock so I have spent many nights alongside a Jehovah Witness talking about religion.

After 8 and a half years I have come to the conclusion that there is only one thing really worth speaking to them about, John chapter one. They believe that Jesus was created by God and is not God Himself. In fact you really have to use their own version of the Bible called the "New World Translation" in order to believe their doctrines.

They have a headquarters in Brooklyn NY where they have men who "correctly" interpret the Bible as the common man does not have the ability to do so.

My presentation this time is a short collection of some YouTube videos on the subject and then the text of John 1:1-5, 14 in the New World Translation and also the New King James Version.

The end of the story here is, don't get caught up talking to JW's about baptism, the Trinity, end times prophecy or any other non-vital subject.

If they don't believe that Jesus is God then nothing else matters!

Here is the link to the presentation: Jehovah Witnesses - a non-christian cult.
