    JW are indeed witnessing for Jehovah, God the Son; and not God the Father!! Charlie Russell got it all wrong! JW was founded on premise that they are Jehovah's Witnesses from Isaiah 43:10, 12 and Isaiah 44:8.

    Now we know that from Isaiah 40-45, the LORD (ie Jehovah) who spoke is none other than Jesus Christ, the Second Person of the Eternal blessed Godhead!! Check it out honestly yourself. If need be, go back to the original Hebrew.

    Proof:

    Isa 45:23 I (the LORD, Jehovah) have sworn by Myself, the word is gone out of My mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto Me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

    Who is this Person revealed in the New Testament?

    Rom 14:10-11 ...... for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord (Jesus Christ), every knee shall bow to Me (Jehovah in Isaiah 4523), and every tongue shall confess to God.

    if that was not clear enough

    Php 2:10-11

    That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

    If still not clear

    Psa 23:1 The LORD (Jehovah, ie the Lord Jesus Christ) is my Shepherd; I shall not want.

    Who is the Shepherd, other than the Lord Jesus Christ?

    John 10:11 I am the good Shepherd: the good Shepherd giveth His life for the sheep.

    Thus the JW is a classic. They are indeed witnessing for Jehovah, God the Son; and not God the Father!! Charlie Russell got it all wrong, and the poor deluded JW continued with the delusion!

    Deu 17:6 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.

    Which words are you talking about?

    Not the misquotes of the above?

    The New Encyclopædia Britannica says: “Neither the word Trinity, nor the explicit doctrine as such, appears in the New Testament, nor did Jesus and his followers intend to contradict the Shema in the Old Testament: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord’ (Deut. 6:4). . . . The doctrine developed gradually over several centuries and through many controversies. . . . By the end of the 4th century . . . the doctrine of the Trinity took substantially the form it has maintained ever since.”—(1976), Micropædia, Vol. X, p. 126.

    The New Catholic Encyclopedia states: “The formulation ‘one God in three Persons’ was not solidly established, certainly not fully assimilated into Christian life and its profession of faith, prior to the end of the 4th century. But it is precisely this formulation that has first claim to the title the Trinitarian dogma. Among the Apostolic Fathers, there had been nothing even remotely approaching such a mentality or perspective.”—(1967), Vol. XIV, p. 299.

    In The Encyclopedia Americana we read: “Christianity derived from Judaism and Judaism was strictly Unitarian [believing that God is one person]. The road which led from Jerusalem to Nicea was scarcely a straight one. Fourth century Trinitarianism did not reflect accurately early Christian teaching regarding the nature of God; it was, on the contrary, a deviation from this teaching.”—(1956), Vol. XXVII, p. 294L.

    (Romans 15:3-6) . . .” 4 For all the things that were written aforetime were written for our instruction, that through our endurance and through the comfort from the Scriptures we might have hope. 5 Now may the God who supplies endurance and comfort grant YOU to have among yourselves the same mental attitude that Christ Jesus had, 6 that with one accord YOU may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

    Only Jehovah's Witnesses have the mind of Christ.

    Only Jehovah's Witnesses glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

    Only Jehovah's Witnesses worship the Father with spirit and truth.

    Only Jehovah's Witnesses are doing the will of the Father.

    They can't

    In the beginning there was only God and he is made of magnificent energy more glorious than anyone can imagine. Everyone thinks he is an a form similar to man but he is not. And us as part of the divine are living this life in human form to learn and grow spiritually and when we are done we return to the divine source and we do maintain our individuality. I saw this in a vision and felt the presence of other souls and felt a love more wonderful than can be described in human terms. If only this could be conveyed to those who do not believe. A wonderful future awaits all who desire to return to our source of life and energy and from which all things were made. All souls are a part of him yet with a separate consciousness. All of us are a part of God and it is glorious and wonderful.

    Um, a few confusions in your statements, we do strive to follow the new testament. Clearly no human has truly seen Jehovah, however everyday life shows examples of God's power.

    That verse reads: “I myself have told forth and have saved and have caused it to be heard, when there was among you no strange god. So you are my witnesses,” is the utterance of Jehovah, “and I am God.”

    Jehovah's Witnesses do not have any stange god among them (i.e trinity). The bible says only the father is God.

    1Cr 8:6 "But to us [there is but] one God, the Father, of whom [are] all things, and we in him"

    we are called Jehovahs witnesses because we witness ABOUT him not that we actually witnessed his pressence or anything, which in fact we do because we see his Holy Spirit at work everyday. but besides the point, we wittness ABOUT God when we go door to door and when we attend christain meetings, when we eat drink, we witness about him and praise his name. that is why we are called Jehovahs Witnesses, not Jehovahs Witness....

    I think the question should be whats up with christian scientists. From what I know they have nothing to do with science, or being a christian.
