Totally random here, do y’all consider Jehovah’s witnesses Christian?

The answer is yes, we are Christian

This question reminds me of the parable about the sheep and the goats in Matthew 25. The criteria to separate sheep from goats wasn’t based on Christian and non-Christian or Jehovah Witness vs non JW, but whether they fed, gave shelter, gave clothing and visited while I (the King) was in prison. Not all “Christians” are meeting these criteria. So does it matter if one identifies as a Christian according to this criteria set by the King? If both will be judged by the King (aka not me), does it even matter what I think? Sorry doesn’t answer your question but think it’s relevant to consider.

I don't ,I'm very weary of any denomination that adds or takes a way from the Bible. If you're denomination doesn't believe that Jesus is the son of God that died for you or you believe you can pray to or be saved by any one else in the Bible. You're not a Christian in my opinion. The Bible was very clear in not praying to prophets, about him being the way the truth and the light

Jehovah’s witnesses totally believe that Jesus is the son of Jehovah and that Jesus died for us to be able to live. So idk where you got that from

I feel like how I answer this completely depends on whether the person asking is a JW or not. My base answer is the same but I would keep it simpler for someone who isn’t and way more detailed and thought out and carefully worded to be respectful to someone who is

I do, same as Mormons

Yes. In the book of Acts, Jesus calls us to be “witnesses of me in Jerusalem, in all Judea And Samaria, and to the most distant parts of the earth.” Jehovah’s Witnesses are absolutely Christians! they believe that Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior of the world and that he died in atonement for our sins. They also are the only religion on planet earth, to my knowledge, who recognizes and calls God by His true name (Yahweh = Jehovah) in daily prayer, worship, and service.

Dear first years,

When my door is closed, I am in the middle of something and trying to focus. Please stop knocking and letting yourself in to chat.
