So sad there is so much unsettling talk and so many un scriptural attacks here. A few scriptures to consider on what Jehovah requires of his people:
Identifying marks of Jehovah's people:
1 Peter 2:17
17 Honor men of all sorts, have love for the whole association of brothers, be in fear of God, ( Jehovah ) honor the king. ( Jesus )
John 13:34,35
34 I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another; just as I have loved you, you also love one another. 35 By this all will know that you are my disciples if you have love among yourselves.”
Isaiah. 2:2-4
“We no longer take up ‘sword against nation,’ nor do we ‘learn war any more.”’
John 15:17-19: “These things I command you, that you love one another. 18 If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you. 19 If you were part of the world, the world would be fond of what is its own. Now because you are no part of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, for this reason the world hates you."
If these scriptures apply to you and ones that you live your life by, you could be in a good position with Jehovah.
If you do not live by these commands and many more like these and have hatred towards one's who do, you may be in trouble with your standing with Jehovah God?
@galveston75 saidEven the government of men {eg Norwegian recently], was able to see that you were showing hatred to your fellow man by your ridiculous disfellowshipping and shunning. There are many more cases where men have had to correct the JWs because they were not showing love and charity to people. Maybe it is you, and the JWs, who are not Jehovah's people.

Jesus had warned his disciples to be careful about people like you. He said in the last days, many will come and make claims that are false. The disciples were warned not to be fooled. On this site alone we are more aware than you. You are sleeping and wallowing in your cult with the delusion that you are Gods chosen. You need to wake up.

@galveston75 saidJesus being referred to as the archangel Michael is unscriptural and no doubt an offence to God.

@galveston75 saidAre these behaviours only applicable to members of the Jehovah’s Witnesses religion, or can anyone follow these commands and still be recognised by Jehovah as one of “his people”?

You ask Jehovah. That is if you even pray..... Oh yeah. Sorry I forgot. You say that Jehovah is not his name. How silly of me.

@galveston75 saidYou criticise the idea of the Trinity for being non-scriptural and not a concept held by the early Christians and yet belief in something yourself that is non-scriptural and not something believed by the early church (namely that Jesus was the archangel Michael).

@galveston75 saidJehovah is a name made in error by a Catholic monk. We have already established this.

@galveston75 saidGod. The Bible says:
@Rajk999
Who does the Bible say is the "ruler of this world" right now?
This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men. (Dan 4:17 KJV)
The most high, is nobody but God.

@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidI challenge you to actually do research on the trinity and where and when it originated. If you are someone to take seriously, you'll do that. If you can't find it I'll help. The info is not from the JW's.

Also can you show me from scripture what Jesus's name was before he was born on earth as a human? Be serious.........
@galveston75 saidWhy can’t you answer my straightforward question?

- Messiah
- Son of Man
- The Elect One
Paul said that Jesus was in the dessert with the Jews and he was called
- The Rock.
Other names are:
- The Light of the World
- The Good Shepherd
- The Anointed One
- The King
- The Saviour
The fact that you and your very stupid religion want to fix one name to Christ / God and then claim that is the only correct name just show how ridiculously childish you people are.

@galveston75 saidYou miss the point (as always). The Trinity is indeed non-scriptural and not something believed by the early church. But the SAME THING applies to the notion that Jesus was the archangel Michael.
