    Do JW baptisms count?

    The Christian forum on here is dead and even if it wasn't I don't have enough privilege to post there. So for a Christian can I get baptized by JW?

    In the Book of Revelation, God is not the Lamb, and the Lamb is not God.

    The Book of Revelation is “the revelation of Jesus Christ, which God (Yahweh) gave him" (1:1). From the very first verse we are told that Jesus is not God. God is differentiated from Jesus. The God of Jesus Christ gave Jesus Christ this revelation. In Revelation 1:5-6 Jesus Christ is “the...

    I don't pray as often as I should and I need someone to help what should I say in prayer? How do I begin and end? I was raised as one of Jehovah's Witnesses.

    Why do people leave Christianity?

    I was on the ex Christian sub and lot of people there seem to have only surface level knowledge of Christianity meaning they were either mislead by false teachers or they never truly understood the doctrine. Why do you think some people, when they don't understand something, they keep digging...

    1 John 4:8 "He who does not love does not know God because God is love."

    God created us to worship Him but He will punish us if we don't?

    The Bible says He created us and the angels out of love and He wants to worship Him because that's what He made us for: to serve Him. This is the purpose of human life according to the Bible. But He doesn't force anyone. Some angels rebelled and humans are free to rebel too, but we will be...

    Is Luke 22:42 about Jesus or Adam?

    Luke 22:42 Jesus prayed saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.” Considering it says "Jesus prayed" I think it's safe to say this verse is about Jesus. But someone on here told me: "That is Adam, not Jesus His Pre-Eminence...

    What do the following verses mean?

    1 Peter 5:8 Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 1 John 5:19 We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one. 2 Corinthians 4:4 In their case the god of this world has blinded...

    I don't mean to offend anyone but can someone explain why the Trinity doctrine is held as a central

    Christian teaching? When the Jewish people don't believe it? The Bible was written by Jewish people, for Jewish people. And when Jesus arrived on earth he went to the Jews first. Mathew 15:22 A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me...

    Lucifer is not the name of the Devil, his actual name is never mentioned in the Bible.

    This is a common misconception. Isaiah 14:3,4 "When the Lord has given you rest from your pain and turmoil and the hard service with which you were made to serve, 4 you will take up this taunt against the king of Babylon:" The only verse which contains "lucifer" Isaiah 14:12 "How art thou...
