How the Watchtower Deceives Jehovahs Witnesses

History, False Prophecies, Biased in the New World Translation, Manipulation, and More. All of this information, along with the bibliography, can be found in my book: A Lie Told Often Enough Becomes Truth, How the Watchtower Deceives Jehovahs Witnesses xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The following is for those who would like quick Scripture references and Early Church Father Quotes to share with those who have been deceived. JESUS IS CALLED: "mighty God" (Isaiah 9:6) "God with us" (Matthew 1:23) "my Lord and my God" (John 20:28) "great God and Savior" (Titus 2:13) "God and Savior" (2 Peter 1:1) JESUS SAID: "Before Abraham was born, I am" (John 8:58) "the Father and I are one" (John 10:30) "he that sees Me, sees the Father" (John 14:9) "I am the First and the Last" (Rev. ‪1:17-18‬) "I am the Alpha and Omega" (Rev. ‪22:12-13‬) JESUS DID THINGS ONLY RESERVED FOR JEHOVAH: Raise Himself from the dead. (John ‪2:19-21‬, ‪10:18‬) Receives worship. (Mat. 2:11,14:33, 28:9,  John 9:38, Heb. 1:6) Forgives sins (Mark 2:5-7) Only name by which to be saved (Acts ‪4:12‬)  These things do not make any sense, unless of course, Jesus is Jehovah. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Revelation 1:8 - Jehovah said He is the Alʹpha and the O·meʹga. Revelation ‪22:12-13‬ - Jesus gave Himself the same title.   Isaiah 44:6 – Jehovah said He is the First and the Last. Revelation ‪1:17-18‬ – Jesus gave Himself the same title.   Acts 3 – Jehovah raised Christ from the dead. John ‪2:19-21‬ – Christ said He will raise Himself.   Matthew 4:10 – Only Jehovah must receive worship. Matthew 14:33, 28:9, Hebrews 1:6, and Revelation 5:6-9, 12-14 - Jesus receives worship. Romans 10:13- Whoever calls on the name of Jehovah will be saved. Acts ‪4:12‬ - Jesus is the only name by which we must be saved. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx WHO RAISED JESUS Jehovah raised Jesus- "the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses." Acts ‪3:15‬ KJV The Holy Spirit raised Jesus- "But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you."  Romans 8:11 KJV Jesus raised Himself- "Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." John 2:19 KJV "I lay down my life, that I might take it again." (John 10:17 KJV) Three Persons  are giving credit for raising Christ from the dead, but then Acts ‪17:31‬ says that God raised Christ... Either the text is wrong, or all three are the same God xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The Watchtower tells Jehovah's Witnesses that the teaching "Jesus is God" didn't take place until after 300 A.D. but this is not true.  Here are quotes from early church Fathers from before 300 A.D. (some of whom learned directly from the Disciples): Polycarp (69 - 155 A.D.) said in his Letter to the Philippians, “Now may the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the eternal high priest himself, the Son of God Jesus Christ, build you up in faith and truth...and to us with you, and to all those under heaven who will yet believe in our Lord and God Jesus Christ and in his Father who raised him from the dead.”  Ignatius (50 - 140? A.D.) said in his Letter to the Ephesians, “For our God, Jesus the Christ, was conceived by Mary according to God’s plan, both from the seed of David and of the Holy Spirit.” -Justin Martyr (100 - 165 A.D.) said in his First Apology, 63. ANF, I:184. “The Father of the universe has a Son; who also, being the first-begotten Word of God, is even God. And of old He appeared in the shape of fire and in the likeness of an angel to Moses and to the other prophets; but now in the times of your reign, having, as we before said, become Man by a virgin...” -Tertullian (160 - 225 A.D.) said in his Treatise on the Soul, 41. “For God alone is without sin; and the only man without sin is Christ, since Christ is also God.” -Origen (185 - 254 A.D.) said in his De Principiis, Book 1, Chapter 2, Section 10. “And as no one ought to be offended, seeing God is the Father, that the Savior is also God; so also, since the Father is called omnipotent, no one ought to be offended that the Son of God is also called omnipotent. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Philippians 2:6-8 explains Jesus emptied Himself of His Deity and took on the role of a servant. He came down to earth and was obedient to the Father. He became our perfect example... praying to the Father, watching to see where the Father is at work, relying on the Father, etc. In other words, we have to remember that Jesus was in a temporary lower position as a servant while He was here on Earth. This is shown in John 17:5 where He says, "And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was."
