The Johovah’s Witnesses deny the DEITY of The Lord Jesus Christ, the Second Person of The Trinity, and the only Lord and Saviour of the world.
Act 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Joh 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Joh 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
I don’t know about you, but that pretty well clinches it for me!

They have their own bible just as the Mormons have their own and just as the Catholics have their unbiblical 'tradition'...
So quoting scripture means nothing to them...
Bout all that can be done is to pray for them and try to help others from falling into the same trap...

Jehovah's Witnesses believe those very things. There is no salvation besides Jesus.
However look at what you just posted: God GAVE his only-begotten son... God SENT his son...
Those show actions of someone in a superior position toward someone of an inferior position, though still a mighty spirit creature. I don't see where you can get a trinity from those scriptures.
Also, if Jehovah's Witnesses didn't believe in Jesus as God's son and our savior, why would they follow his teachings, especially Matthew 28:19, 20?
As far as John 3:18, only begotten = someone produced, created, not co-eternal.
