If you are a Jehovah's Witness, please read this first.

      If you are a J.W. please understand that I am not against you as an individual. I am not an apostate from the Watchtower organization and, of course, I was never baptized as a J.W. However, when I was 17, I studied with the J.W.’s for a couple of months but quit. Unfortunately, they used the Watchtower Magazine equally, and sometime more, than the Bible. All I wanted to study was the Bible.
      As a J.W. you have been taught from the Bible. You’ve attended numerous meetings, and been convinced that what you believe is indeed the truth. You also believe the Trinity is a demonic doctrine and that Christendom is an apostate group preaching a false gospel. Additionally, you believe the Watchtower organization is the true channel of God’s revelation to His church on earth.
      But believing it does not make it so. I am sure you agree with this and respond by saying that your beliefs are in agreement with the Bible. After all, you study it deeply and often and have validated your beliefs with the word of God. I don’t deny that you study. But when you study, you study out of the Watchtower Magazine and allow it to guide your understanding and thinking. That is why I often refer to Jehovah’s Witnesses as "Watchtowerites."
      But if the J.W. organization is from God, then...

  • Why has it made false prophecies?
  • Why has it altered the translation of the Bible?
  • Why does the Watchtower say you will fall into apostasy if you read the Bible without the Watchtower? See their quotes
  • Why are you not allowed to simply read the Bible by itself in the Kingdom Halls?
  • Why does the Watchtower organization appear to take the place of Jesus?
  • Why are you not allowed to examine your own organization?
  • Why does it tell you what to think, feel, and do?

      Have you checked the documentation from the Watchtower Magazine? How do you know that the Watchtower is correct? Because it says it is?
      Please don’t be offended by this. But when a group claims to be the prophet of God, yet mistranslates the Bible, takes verses out of context, makes false prophecies, and misquotes authorities all to make its position valid, its credibility is greatly undermined. It cannot be from God.
      But you will never know that unless you "examine ALL things." Unfortunately, as a J.W., you are only permitted to study what the Watchtower and Awake magazines tell you to study...and that, in the Watchtower method. They ask the questions and then give you the answers. Sometimes it even uses a Bible reference (usually out of context) to back up what it says. It all looks good and sounds good from your perspective. But it is a false method of study. The Watchtower organization tells you what to think, what to feel, and what to do.
      The Bible alone is sufficient. But the Watchtower denies that:

"From time to time, there have arisen from among the ranks of Jehovah's people those, who, like the original Satan, have adopted an independent, faultfinding attitude...They say that it is sufficient to read the Bible exclusively, either alone or in small groups at home. But, strangely, through such 'Bible reading,' they have reverted right back to the apostate doctrines that commentaries by Christendom's clergy were teaching 100 years ago..." The Watchtower, August 15, 1981.

     Funny thing is that if you study the Bible by itself, the Watchtower says you'll become Trinitarian...Now why do you think that is?
