To get eternal life one must know-The Father-YHWH(Jehovah) and Jesus( John 17:3) most are taught to stop at Jesus--they cant win then.
Good point @Muffled It is written that a disciple of Jesus should eat HIS flesh and blood. The JWs are not allowed to do that. They believe that God has given everyone a faithful slave and we are to eat what they have for us to eat.
I don't know. I understand that it is symbolic. To eat his flesh and to drink his blood means to become more and more like him. I don't believe the Quakers don't do that. I don't know about the others.I believe the Church of Christ Scientist and The society of Friends (Quakers) don't do that either.
Think! How do they know they are not wrong again?
@kjw47 Do you want to talk about Psalms 146:3, Romans 3:4, and Matthew 7:15?
Do you remember that I was JW?
I left because the elder said to me, "we must trust the governing body".
But! That is teaching against Psalms 146:3 and many other scriptures.
Thats a bold claim to be part of that one percent based of faith out of 99%? Faith doesnt equal to knowledge.
The real Jesus is the Father.
what Jesus taught....He taught in parables
and it is noted.....no teaching....without parables
so.....if you know the parables....you know Him
I certainly do but have found that Jw's don't believe everything He says and misinterpret what they do believe He says.
Do you really not see that you equate them to God? Even Jesus did not equate himself to God!Only against scriptures using false reasonings--This is proof of that--Luke 10:16--- That teaches one must listen and obviously trust those teachers. If they do not--they are rejecting Jesus and God as well.
John 14:7 If ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also: from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
Matthew 24:45-- Luke 10:16)
One becomes a true follower by being taught by the teachers Jesus appointed here on earth in these last days--The faithful and discreet slave who give food( spiritual) at the proper time. Taught and applied.

15And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted up to heaven? No, you will go down to Hades! 16Whoever listens to you listens to Me; whoeverrejects you rejects Me; andwhoever rejects Me rejectsthe One who sent Me.” 17The seventy-two returned with joy and said, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in Your name.”…
eadiness at Any Hour
…44For this reason, you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect Him. 45Who then is thefaithful and wise servant,whom the master has put in charge of his household, to give the others their food atthe proper time? 46Blessed is that servant whose master returns and finds him doing his job.…

I don't think the Jehovah's Witnesses ever claim that they know Christ. They put their trust in the men who say Christ knows them.Are you the only one that knows the real christ?
No one knows they are in error until truth is found.
Then you live in error.
