Jehowa's Witness/Yahweh's Witness <--- What is it?

PostAuthor: Diri » Fri Sep 22, 2006 12:05 am

Here I will encourage Lorri our dear Scottish forum whom is a follower of this fascinating religion! :)

Please ask your questions here - and cross your fingers that Lorri will answer your questions! \:D/

[-o<


1) What is the concept of "God" in Yahweh's Witness?

2) What is the faith's stance on Jesus, Moses and Mohammed (peace be upon them all)?

3) What rituals do you have and for what purpose?

That's me for now... Maybe I'll inquire some more when I get a reply... O:)

Hi, The concept of God is basically the same as yours I beleive. One God. He is a spirit being/person, according to the Bible.

Jesus was/is Gods son; he was God's/Yahweh's first creation, and beteween them, they created everything. The prophets in the Bible, ie: Moses, were given divine inspiration to write the Bible. Nowhere in the Bible does it mention Mohammed, or indeed another prophet after Jesus. I could try to look for scriptures, but seeing as I have only grabbed about two hours sleep since yesterday morning, I can't be arsed, at the moment. My typing's crap too. :lol:

Jesus was fortold from the beginning of the Bible in Genesis. He was to come to Earth to serve as a ransom to pay for the life that Adam lost ,by choosing to follow his own desires. We take ALL of th Bible, Hebrew and Greek scriptures),, because it's quite useless without all of it.

There are no rituals, it is a pure religion which adheres to the Bible. We can also be taken to a "judicial committee" if our sins are bad enough, and that can result in being disfellowshipped, if we don't repent, because having the name "Jehovah's Winesses puts us under a very heavy obligation, not to bring shame on God's name (Jehovahs/Yahweh). We are allowed back in, if we show proof that we have changed our ways. We can also have a public or private reproof for transgressions. If the transgression is only known to the transgressor, a private reproof is enough, but privelages may be taken away for a short time. If the trangression has been found out by other members of the congregation, a public reproof is required, so that all can see that the transgressor is being dealt with. These disciplinary meetings are taken by Elders of the congregation. Does that help for the time being?

Thank you so much... I am very pleased with your answers... Truly helped me a lot... :)

Appriciate it - because I realy want to know more abotu Yehowah's Witness, and there is so little ACTUAL information about WHAT you believe in...

Now I know that you:

1) Belive God is one.
2) Believe Jesus is God's son (Estefur-Allah)
3) Believe that Jesus was the first man created... Right? Because a friend of mine, who is a Yehowah's Witness told me you believe Jesus was the first Angel created by God... His exact words...

Is that right? And if so, wasn't Adam the first man? Or maybe Jesus was the first ANGEL and Adam the first MAN? I am still a bit confused it seems... Could you clarify, please? :D

Jesus was the first of God's creations, according to the Bible. Yes, he was the first angel, but he is called God's first begotten son.

There is an official website for Winesses. http://www.watchtower.org/ There are also many, many false sites and information about them. As you probably know Jehovah's Witnesses are persecuted in some countries, and to a degree even in democratic societies. That's why I didn't say I was one before; I didn't know how it would go down, lol.

You have a Jehovah's Witness friend?? :D

Okey so you say Gods FIRST begotten son... That means we are ALL God's sons and daughters according to you... Right?

Well, considering there aren't that many witnesses in the world, you know quite a few statistically.. :lol: :lol:

I was christened a Protestant within the Church of Scotland, (my dad's side) and my mum, (who's English), was a methodist, (whatever that is), but she too started looking into the Bible, (even though Mehtodists "teach" the Bible) and has become a J.W.

Yeah - why are you rolling your eyes over my words: "and daughters"?

Mariah/Maria = Mother of Jesus... Known as Meryem by us Muslims... And also Jews I think...

Each Christian sects states to be the TRUE one, a great lack of modesty I think, though Jesus condemned vanity :roll:

There are currently 2 great sects, sunnis and Shi'a, and some small others, like Wahhabits but they considered each others as real muslims, that is not the problem between them.
