Viewpoints of a Christian.
Why Do Christians Disagree With Jehovah's Witnesses?
-
God is free and he created us in his image. He wants us to be free to choose what we believe in and how we will live our life. Unity of beliefs was not required by Jesus. It was required by the Apostle Paul who said he was a Pharisee AFTER he converted to Christianity. In fact after Jesus died, many Pharisees became Christians and influenced the early Christian congregation. See Facts About The Apostle Paul
-
Unnecessary emotional pain, and suffering is caused when one religion believes they are the only path to God. See God's channel of communication.
-
Jesus didn't teach judgment, shunning, and disfellowshipping.
-
Christians know that Jesus does not require us to follow strict rules and regulations. The Law of the Christ is freedom and it's imperative that we live our life in harmony with the words of Jesus alone.
-
When God wants to speak with his people he will do so directly as we reach out to him in prayer and meditation. The Bible does not say that Jesus speaks through a faithful and discreet slave. This is a false assumption. See the What The Bible Says About the Faithful and Discreet Slave.
-
There is nothing we can do to 'earn' everlasting life. Our salvation does not depend on how many doors we knock on or how many birthdays we failed to celebrate. There is no organization powerful enough to save us. See Religious Salvation
-
We are saved by God's grace and our personal relationship with the source of all life.
