Jehovah Witnesses’s View of Jesus | Rapp Report Daily 0118 | Striving for Eternity

Welcome to the Rapid Bull, daily edition, where we provide a quick biblical interpretations and applications.

This is a ministry of striving for eternity. Okay, we mentioned yesterday that when it comes to the Jehovah Witnesses' view of Jesus Christ, they see him as the mighty

God, not the almighty God, making some distinction. One of the things that they're going to hold to is that Jesus Christ was actually

Michael, the archangel, who became a man known as Jesus Christ, and he pre -existed as Michael and then returned as Michael after his death.

Now, this is the thing. First off, they don't believe when he rose that he rose bodily. They think it was just his spirit that returned to be in Michael.

And so, you end up seeing that they have a very different Jesus than that of the scriptures.

Now, they believe that God the Father made Jesus, well, Michael, and then through Michael, who became

Jesus, he created all things that were created. And that's why in Colossians 1, 15 -18, you're going to see that instead of it saying that Jesus created all things, they have to add the word other, that he created all other things, because he obviously couldn't have created himself.

And this is a problem that you end up seeing. They remove the deity of Jesus Christ, and in doing so, you end up seeing they have a very different Jesus.

This is a central thing that they're going to focus on. Now, sometimes they make a big deal. They try to say that Jesus wasn't crucified.

He was put on a stake, not a cross, not a big deal, but a very different Jesus. If you want to get more details, get my book,
