I know that their beliefs on the holy spirit are rather controversial, as is their views on blood transfusions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Butero Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 They don't believe Jesus is God. They look at him as a prophet but not God, so that makes them heretics. I don't agree with them on transfusions, but that alone wouldn't make them heretics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do not only not believe Jesus is the Son of God but believe that the cross is a evil symbol. They are all scrambling to be one of the 144,000. If they would only read God's word they would know that the 144,000 are Jews. Yes the word heretics get's my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DRS81 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 They also believe the holy spirit is a force and not a person. They're just very lost people in general and need much prayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is plenty of JW doctrine to criticize. NEVERTHELESS, they have prevented the easter bunny from going hippity-hoppity into the Sanctuary. They celebrate the Christian Passover, with their own nuances. A lot of "main stream" churches celebrate easter, and a few even roll eggs on Sanctuary grounds. Now those guys have guts! I, for one, would not want to be the person putting the Asherah to His nose (metaphorically speaking).

That fact alone makes them not Christian. http://www.allaboutcults.org/jehovah-witnesses-beliefs-faq.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't they think Jesus is Michael the archangel or something? Yes; they believe He is a created being and is not to be worshipped. They also believe the Cross is an evil idol.

I guess the Scripture is right about the Cross being an offense... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
