Christians, Why is it that "Many" of you say that Jesus Christ is Lord ,and stop?
Short of what the Bible Really teaches?
(Philippians 2:11) 11 and every tongue should openly acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.
(Matthew 10:32) 32 “Everyone, then, that confesses union with me before men, I will also confess union with him before my Father who is in the heavens;
(Matthew 7:21) . . .“Not everyone saying to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but the one doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens will.
(Romans 10:9) 9 For if you publicly declare that ‘word in your own mouth,’ that Jesus is Lord, and exercise faith in your heart that God raised him up from the dead, you will be saved.
Do You not Fear the only true God?
Jesus says These Words
Jesus says: This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you(Jehovah), the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ.(John 17:3)
(John 6:43-45) In answer Jesus said to them: “Stop murmuring among yourselves. 44 No man can come to me unless the Father, who sent me, draws him; and I will resurrect him in the last day. 45 It is written in the Prophets, ‘And they will all be taught by Jehovah.’ Everyone that has heard from the Father and has learned comes to me.

JESUS HAS A GOD:
Matthew 27:46: About the ninth hour Jesus called out with a loud voice, saying: “E´li, E´li, la´ma sa·bach·tha´ni?” that is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
John 20:17: ‘I am ascending to my Father and YOUR Father and to my God and YOUR God.’
Revelation 3:12: The one that conquers—I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will by no means go out [from it] anymore, and I will write upon him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem which descends out of heaven from my God, and that new name of mine.
1 Corinthians 11:3: But I want YOU to know that the head of every man is the Christ; in turn the head of a woman is the man; in turn the head of the Christ is God.
Ephesians 1:17: that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give YOU a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the accurate knowledge of him [...]
1 Corinthians 15:24-28: Next, the end, when he hands over the kingdom to his God and Father, when he has brought to nothing all government and all authority and power. 25 For he must rule as king until [God] has put all enemies under his feet. 26 As the last enemy, death is to be brought to nothing. 27 For [God] “subjected all things under his feet.” But when he says that ‘all things have been subjected,’ it is evident that it is with the exception of the one who subjected all things to him. 28 But when all things will have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him, that God may be all things to everyone.
[The Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him]

People today are not interested in truth. They prefer a watered down version of truth. The most important requirement for entering into the kingdom of the heavens is____doing the will of the Father [God]___ as Jesus stated in Matthew 7:21.
Apostate Christians [Christians who have abandon true worship] find it difficult to do God's will. They live together before marriage which is totally against God's will, they practice idolatry and many other things that displeases God. See other things that displeases God @ http://www.counterfeitchristians.info/ They publicly declare they know God but disown him by their works. Faith alone (believing alone) cannot get one saved since one's works (behavior and beliefs) can cause one to disown God.
The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. How can they fear someone they do not know? If one was to ask Christendom who is God? The overwhelming response would be Jesus. Even those who claim God is 3 distinct persons would still answer Jesus as though Jesus is all three in one as Pentecostals believe. They do not know God.

If they really believe that Jesus is God, why don't they obey his commandment to preach the literal Kingdom of God, door to door ? Matthew 24:14 - Acts 5:42. Are they afraid of people ? Yes. Don't they have the Holy Spirit ? I guess not.

I would think that it is the fault of the church, too many different congregations within Christianity, even though it should be one common goal. Sometimes progress and tradition clash, when do we let go of tradition for the sake of progress, at the same time when do we, if ever stop progress for the sake of mankind? To prosecute someone for belief in God but not Jesus is blasphemous it seems, when it was God that created Jesus, maybe I missed something but I was always clear that God was never a he or she, that we need a crutch like Jesus in order to enter the gates, sells us humans short. Is it really unfathomable that we can live a humble life without someone to save us?

The bible says: “FEAR God and give him glory"
(Revelation 14:6-7) . . .And I saw another angel flying in midheaven, and he had everlasting good news to declare as glad tidings to those who dwell on the earth, and to every nation and tribe and tongue and people, 7 saying in a loud voice: “FEAR God and give him glory, because the hour of the judgment by him has arrived, and so worship the One who made the heaven and the earth and sea and fountains of waters.”
” 8 And another, a second angel, followed, saying: “She has fallen! Babylon the Great ( False religion) has fallen, she who made all the nations drink of the wine of the anger of her fornication!”

I do not fear that which I know not to be true. Jesus was not the messiah. The Jews are right about that one. If you want to know why ask them the 14 reasons that Jesus was not the "messiah" and learn something.
Therefore, no - I do not fear your God, nor am I supposed to. "God loves you - he's going to kill you*?" Give me a break.

(James 2:19) 19 You believe there is one God, do you? You are doing quite well. And yet the demons believe and shudder.
Jesus also said: (John 17:25-26) 25 Righteous Father, the world has, indeed, not come to know you; but I have come to know you, and these have come to know that you sent me forth. 26 And I have made your name known to them and will make it known, in order that the love with which you loved me may be in them and I in union with them.”

First of all john 17:3 does not say in the Greek "their talking in knowledge of you" This is misleading of the text. you see the Watchtower want you to give full authority to them and this misuse of the text proves it. It should say "that they should know you". your spiritual food is the watchtower and the awake is what you talk in as "knowledge" making the watchtower a prophet. Now you sound like a true Pharisee in Luke 18:1-14 as the Pharisee says "O God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of humanity-greedy,dishonest,adulterous-or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and I pay my tithes on my whole income" YOU SHOULD BE MORE LIKE THE TAX COLLECTOR, HE WOULD NOT EVEN LOOK UP BUT BEAT HIS CHEST AND PRAYED ( THIS IS WHAT CATHOLICS DO AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH HOLY MASS) "OH GOD BE MERCIFUL TO ME A SINNER". I KNOW THAT IT'S HARD FOR A JEHOVAH WITNESS TO BE HUMBLE PEOPLE. I know this because I've been the kingdom hall and ALL YOU DO IS COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS, BUT MOST TO CATHOLICS. ONE TIME A JW TOLD ME A STORY ABOUT A CATHOLIC HE KNOW OF HIS EVIL WAYS, THEN I TOLD HIM THAT, THATS FUNNY THAT HE SAID AND I METIONED 3 PEOPLE HE KNOWS THAT ARE JW AND ARE DOING EVIL STUFF, BUT WAS QUIK TO SAY "WELL THOSE ARE NON PRACTICING JW", SO I TOLD HIM "SO THOSE CATHOLICS WERE? HE UNDERSTOOD WHAT I MEANT AND HE LEFT AND SAID "WELL YOUR GOING TO HELL" WHAT? I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING I JUST SAY "GOD BLESS" SO DO JW BELEIEVE IN HELL OR NOT? GOD BLESS AND DON'T COMPARE WITH GOOD PEOPLE AND BAD THAT'S GOD'S JUDGEMENT.

They want an "Image" of God and hope that they can get away with it if they call Jesus God. Then they can picture a face , even if it is wrong. If they read more they would have to face themselves and their lies/sins.

Nice question. I am glad to see someone with knowledge of the scriptures, good job. My brother, I have some verses for you in all humility:
John 5: "19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
20 For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.
21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;
27 And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
God has given everything to his son Jesus. Jesus has all power from his father. When you worship God, you worship his son. When you worship Jesus, you worship his Father God. They are not one body, but they both are on the same side. I understand what you are saying, but they are not against each other. When you worship one, you glorify the other. When knees will bow, and tongues confess of Christ, it is what God the father wants. I hope I was of service. If you ever need anything, my e-mail is themark08@yahoo.com.
