Are Jehovah's Witnesses Saved?

From the same movement that brought about the Seventh -day Adventist come the Jehovah's Witnesses!

But while it's possible for an Adventist to be a Christian, the Witnesses are not. Charles Taze Russell founded the

Jehovah's Witnesses in 1870, then established the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society in 1881. It is through the

Watchtower Society that the Bible is interpreted and understood, even printing their own Bible called the New World Translation of the

Holy Scriptures. Since the Witnesses believe that the Bible has been corrupted over the centuries, that pretty much gives them the liberty to make it mean whatever they want.

For example, they teach that Jesus is actually the Archangel Michael, though a sound reading of Hebrews 1 easily negates that view.

And they believe Jesus was a mere man until his baptism, and only then did he become the Son of God. But John 1 blows that concept out of the water.

They believe that salvation is by works, which contradicts Ephesians 2 .8 .9 and Titus 3 .5. They deny the

Trinity, the Holy Spirit, and the Atonement, and claim that only their beliefs represent true Christianity. Anyone who believes anything else,

God will destroy. They also have a reputation for making up their own prophecies, with a failure rate of 100%.

Like the Mormons, the Witnesses claim Christ has returned to earth since his ascension, yet Jesus very specifically said his return would be seen by the whole world.

He also said not to believe anyone who claims that he's come back in secret or to a select group of people. Following the false teachings of the

Watchtower Society will not lead to salvation. If possible, try to lead a Jehovah's Witness in a spirit of gentleness to the truth of God's clear and consistent
