Are Jehovah's Witnesses Saved?
The Watchtower says, "Only Jehovah's Witnesses, those of the anointed remnant and the "great crowd," as a united organization under the protection of the Supreme Organizer, have any Scriptural hope of surviving the impending end of this doomed system dominated by Satan the Devil." Watchtower Sept 1, 1989 page 19.
Read in between the lines. What do you see? How should we interpret what the Watchtower is saying? Is it true that only Jehovah's Witnesses who are in good standing with the 'organization' are loved by God? Is it true that all other servants of God don't have a chance - according the the Bible? Is it a fact that the entire world except for the Watchtower organization is controlled by 'Satan the Devil'? NO. It's an opinion. It's not a Bible based truth. It's running ahead of what Jesus and the Bible has said. 2 John 1:9-11
Based on a parable in Matthew 24:42-51 Jehovah's Witnesses believe their organization is God's faithful slave and channel of communication. Everyone must affiliate with God's organization in these 'last days' before the final battle of armageddon in which all the 'wicked' are destroyed by Jehovah. Of course Jehovah's Witnesses who are faithful to the end survive without a scratch.
As unlikely as this story sounds, JW's believe all things are possible with God. What evidence do we have that the Watchtower organization is right or wrong?
False Religious Beliefs.
