Gee, you’re are hard to talk to. Why such arrogance with anger? I said “prove something in the Bible”, you said,”use archeolgy in their studies” there is a difference.
You still haven’t attempted to explain “stauros” (Gk.)
This discusion got started when someone made, in my opinion a very denigrating remark about Jesus Christ. I know very little about Jehovah Witness’s doctrine. I do know we are allowed to hold our own ‘opinion’ what we think the Bible says. Now, we could be dead wrong in that opinion and suffer the consequences (not get the rewards of correct believing) but we still have that right. Major Christians demoninations are riddled with false teaching, traditions not Bible based, or down right errors. I am not anything other than a beliver in Jesus Christ and I do my best to live up to that high standard of conduct. But, at best, I’m a saved sinner, waiting for his return. JW’s have the same right to be wrong as me or you. I think the Roman Church do as much harm as good. But if Christ is preached then they are at least they doing something right. Your tone and condescension is a bit off-putting to say the least. How many people have you lead to the new birth lately? I don’t find you style of talking to people in the N.T. well, a few of note, wore babbles on their foreheads. Oh well, you probably believe in the trinity, too. Bye,bye.

How many people have you lead to the new birth lately?

Actually, GOD does the converting, not us.

However, I am willing to bet I have been involved in more conversions than you, since I have left academia to minister full time.

But which "christ" do JWs preach? Don't they preach the angel-man-semi-god who isn't Jehovah God?

The apostle Paul clearly commented about someone coming and preaching a different Jesus:

But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent's cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ. For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached... (2 Cor. 11:3-4)
