Because we follow what Almighty God teaches via his word the Bible.
(any translation)
So, are you saying the Bible is satanic?
Shame on you!

Because unlike some people, and you included, you waste your time on other things, and do not study the Word of God.
Jehovah Witnesses study before becoming a Witness to find the truth, and then we keep studying to learn more, one can never learn all there is to know about Jehovah God.
Also you could turn this ??? around and ask yourself are you a (Christian and not in a satanic organization?

Because Joshua, we believe and do just as first century Christians believed and did. This was long before satanic false Christians took over by the third century. Those are the ones you pattern yourselves after today. Talk about Satanic!
Everything Christendom believes in was stolen from pagans. Every holiday, every major belief such as trinity, hellfire and immortal soul is pagan in origin or read that as Satanic.
While everything we as Jehovah's Witnesses believe in is based on the scriptures of the Bible itself. That is why everyone disagrees and views us as enemies. Because to them, being under Satan's control, we are enemies of Satan.

Most of us had been seeking the truth for decades when we found it with the JWs. We could see mainstream christendom was pagan and based on lies.
If you open you mind, dont just take what you have been taught all your life as the truth, may be you will be shocked what the Bible actually teaches. I know I was and I am so glad I listened and learned.

Their organization has brainwashed them. It has deceived them into thinking that it alone is the true religion.
When you show a JW all the errors and wrongs in their organization and they are at the point where they can no longer deny it or defend it they stoop to asking: "Well where else would we go? Who else has the truth? Which organization is God using?" as if to say that they're sticking with what they consider to be the least of many evils until you can show them better.
The thing is, this response is a programmed one. These very questions have been programmed into them by their organization because every JW asks these kinds of questions when cornered and similar questions can be found in their literature, proving that the source of such thinking is actually their organization.
Also, their organization has created its own criteria for determining true religion by carefully cherry-picking scriptures many of which they misapply and misinterpret to justify their own teachings and practices. So it is inevitable and by design that this JW-created criteria for determining true religion "proves" only JWs as practicing true religion. It's like a player inventing or twisting the rules of the game to ensure that he wins. LOL.
Now when you corner a JW about the falsehoods and wrongs in his own religion, in addition to asking the kinds of questions mentioned before, he would start asking questions where he uses the JW-created criteria for identifying true religion which has been deeply implanted in his mind, to discredit all other religions and prove his own as the truth. He is too blind to see that this is a form of circular reasoning, he is too blind to see the folly of using the criteria created by the very organization whose teachings are being questioned, to judge the truthfulness of the teachings of other organizations.
Their organization has a strong hold on their minds, programming them to think in such a way that they can't see their errors.

Because we are serious students of God's word and are known and reported on worldwide as being honest, law abiding, tax paying, kind, moral citizens of whatever country we live in. Satanic cult!? That's ridiculous and you know it.

Cause Jehovah is the name of God... not the devil
The organization on the other hand, I don't know anything about them or what they do. Nor do I care too.

You just confirmed my belief that Jehovah's Witnesses are the one true religion.
Thank you.

Because they would not be accepted by the satanic community, we do have standards you know

I think they should just call themselves "witnesses". They are not Christian in any historic sense of the word. This is why no body agrees with them. I don't know why they want to call themselves Christians in the first place.
