Ep. 27 | Counterfeit Christianity Series, Part 2 | Jehovah's Witnesses
Ciara and Jessi continue their look into other religious teaching that claim to be Christian in nature but are really promoting a false gospel based on a false understanding of Jesus and the saving grace of God.
For this episode, the beliefs of the Jehovah's Witness Church are examined against the Bible. Is it possible for Jesus to be the archangel Michael? Did Jesus rise from the dead in a spiritual way, leaving his body behind? What does salvation look like according to the Jehovah's Witness and does scripture affirm that teaching? Is it really fair to call Jehovah's Witnesses a "cult"?
Check out this discussion for answers to these questions, and so many more.
