It seems obvious that the JWs would answer that question with ....

"You ae the archangel Michael. That is why we do not bow down to worship you. We don't worship false gods or angels."

Your comments are getting silly, you do know that don't you?

And no we don't not worship Jesus. If you do you are going against his own commands to worship "only his Father in heaven", aren't you?

Where did Jesus say for anyone to worship him? No comments needed just the scriptures please...

Well, I do know I am right and you just confirmed it.

HalleluYah !!! Praise the LORD! Hply! Holy! Holy!

Being worshipped and allowing oneself to be worshipped are two different things......

Matthew 28:9
9 And look! Jesus met them and said: “Good day!” They approached and took hold of his feet and did obeisance* to him.

Lol.... you really don't care about being truthful with your worship do you? You just want to be right in your own eyes. How sad that it's that important to you to be willing to give up a true relationship with God.


"If I missed this forgive me but Robbie made a comment. This angel "Michael" defeats Satan the Devil, correct?
What other angel in the Bible would have this power and ability if this were not Jesus?"

Ron you out there?

Jesus is indeed Michael the archangel but this does not mean that Jesus was an angel at all. It means the Captain of the host. Jesus is the commander of the host of angels. I'm read the link I posted and it makes sense. The JWs are right in a partial sense but not completely.

ah yes, its one of the special instances where the eastern salutation to do obeisance suddenly becomes an act of worship in the case of Jesus.

Jesus seems to have magical effects on scripture, he can be of the creation and not a created entity at the same time, he can change indefinite predicate nouns into definite ones, he can be a firstborn of all creation but not of progeny, he can come with an archangels voice but not be an archangel,

his effect on scripture is miraculous, its only a matter of time before he rewrites the Bible entirely.

Actually Jesus made his fathers name known, infact, he prayed,

Our father in heaven, hollowed be your name (not hallowed be my name)

let your will take place (not my will)

and

Righteous Father, the world has, indeed, not come to know you; but I have come to know you, and these have come to know that you sent me forth. And I have made your name known to them and will make it known

another occasion where the fathers name miraculously becomes the sons name, wow, really wow, Jesus effect on scripture really is miraculous.

I would rather applaud Mannys objectivity and open minded approach, its truly refreshing.
