Who is the Faithful and Discreet Slave? (A Context Adventure)

So here we are looking at Matt 24:45 and scratching our heads. Who is the faithful and discreet slave??  What if we had nothing to aid our understanding? No one to explain?  Could we figure it out just from the pages of the Bible?  Let’s try!   How can we do that?  We have to…

Power to Reason 💡 Let’s use it!

The verses below show a major translation difference between the KJV (along with all other English translations) and the NWT.  Take a look at them and then meet me again underneath the photo. So above we see that the Kingdom interlinear shows the KJV to be on track and the NWT to be…not so much….

IF the Spirit of God dwells in you…

Reading Romans 8 this morning. It speaks for itself! People are either indwelled by the Spirit of God making them sons of God, having the life of God….or they do not belong to him. They cannot please him. They are “after the flesh”. JW! Please be born again! Jn 3:3 Truely truely I say to you,…

Proof Jesus isn’t Michael

My time in God’s word this morning had me me litterally shaking with discovery.  I never believed Jesus was Michael but this morning God showed me proof. Follow me: Daniel 10 documents a vision of A man clothed in linen, a belt of gold, eyes like fire, wearing a linen garment, having feet like copper,…

Jehovah’s Witnesses’ long lost Brother in the Mail

I got this in the mail today and I thought “Oh, how nice, someone is sending out tracts to the public. (I got my letter from one of Jehovah’s witnesses last month and I also appreciate their efforts to share their faith as do all sorts of people who claim the title of Christianity). I…

Responding to my Friendly Neighborhood Jehovah’s Witness.

Jehovah’s Witnesses have taken to letter writing during this “stay at home” season (Covid-19 is the timing of this post). So, I thought I would share photos of the written letter I sent back. May the power of the Gospel of Christ be at work.

“He was calling me out”

The links below are the stories of a husband and wife who both separately were called out of the witnesses and found freedom in Christ through the simple gospel of Grace. They now rest in knowing they have the salvation they used to work so hard to try to achieve. They are an example of…

The 144,000 – Who Are They? When Are They?

If you’re one of Jehovah’s witnesses, you are well acquainted with the 144,000. Let’s step into the context of the only places in the Bible this group is mentioned. (Revelation) Who are the 144000 in context? And when do they appear in history? (Or future) I made this little visual to help make it clear:…

House to House When it’s Convenient 

All those in JW land know this verse:  Jehovah’s Witnesses pride themselves with being the only ones going from house to house.  In context of the New Testament, we know the early churches met in homes.  (Act 2:2,46, 5:42, romans 16:3-5 etc).  Apostles and teachers would travel around from “house to house” visiting and preaching…

Our Savior God/Jesus

I found this today as I was reading Titus. Read vs 2-3 carefully.  Paul is talking about God…who made his word known… according to the command of who?   “Our Savior God”  It gets even better!  In case there was any doubt who “our Savior God” is… check out the verses following: He is none other…

Jesus the only direct creation of Jehovah? 

My purpose here isn’t to show that Jehovah made more things directly than Jesus (because, Biblically, Jesus was not created in the sense that he had a beginning. He only had a beginning as a man which he humbled himself to become) What I want to point out is the obvious contradiction to this watchtower…

Are You a Confirmed Drunkard?

Here’s a quick “Twist in Translation” I found while studying the faithful and discreet slave (please see the study “Who is the Faithful and Discreet Slave? (A context adventure) for a clear study on the slave). It pretty much explains itself. See the passage below and meet me on the other side.  My purpose here is…

Number Crunch

I am aware that since Jehovah’s Witnesses believe there is only room for 144,000 members in the anointed class and therefore expect those claiming to be one of this number to be dwindling as the elderly ones reach the end of their lives.  I was curious  how much the numbers of memorial partakers has been…

Is Scripture Sufficient?

      If you are a JW, are you aware that the Watchtower teaches that independent Bible reading is not productive?  You don’t believe me do you? 🙂  Here’s some quotes (not an exhaustive list by any means)  We are told in the New Testament that the Holy Spirit is the one given to…
