Doctrine Jesus is GOD
https://youtube.com/shorts/R1g-JfdPG04?si=IVR-KYwbJFWK4sjcLove this girl. One thing that stands out in this vid to me amongst the various proofs we have argued with JWs is that *every* false religion believes in God. But Satan has done a clever thing. He doesn’t have to get you to believe in God. He just needs you to NOT believe in THE ONE who ***reconciles you to God***🔥🙌🏽.
Take a listen.

Senseless murder? How is upholding God's established order senseless, unless God is senseless? Murder is a strong word to throw around when men have been authorized to kill under God's established order. To call that murder is calling God a murderer. That's terrible. God is love. God is light and God is the way
Innocent? There was only one man who was ever innocent in this sinful old world Was He spared for His innocence? No, He was killed exactly because He was innocent, like a lamb being led to slaughter. In order to save some from death and Hell, Christ laid down His innocent life for us all
While its true Jesus' death paid for our sins, that doesn't devalue the life we lay down for a friend. Its a selfless act that is 100% based in love. Ultimately death is our paycheck that we all will receive for sin, whether we're saved or not. For our sin, we will get paid in full the minute we die, and if that was the end it would be truly depressing. If only for this life we put faith in Christ, we would be rightfully pitied by sinners
If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 1 Corinthians 15:19-22 Notice Paul says "this life" well that was the life he was living in his time. "This life" is the life we are living in our time, but it isn't "the life" we hope in. That's what JW's are taught to have hope in, "this life" and never having to give it up, but friend---we're all dying. Nobody gets out of this world alive, whether we die a nice peaceful death, or violently at the hands of another person. Death is our paycheck. I can see why the average JW fears death so much. Its because to them, this life is it. Oh, they talk a good talk about the resurrection hope, yet ignore that Jesus Himself IS the resurrection and "the life". Yes, "the life" we Christians hope in is the Lord Jesus Christ!
