-Removed-you make make reference to my evidence, your opinions, insinuations are meaningless to me without evidence of substantiation, so far throughout this thread you have produced nothing, despite having been asked. If you have evidence then produce it otherwise your posts are meaningless. I have produced evidence, why cant you, how hard can it be? The Bible itself does not give a yes or no answer, if it does why dont you produce it? Are the principles of Christ not enough for you, they are certainly good enough for us, yet you seem intent on ignoring them, you have the same information that we have why dont you therfore answer the question and give a scriptural reason why you come to that conclusion, after all you according to your beliefs are destined to rule with Christ in the heavens, so if anyone should know, it should be you.

The question I have for our friends here or it can be a challenge if they dare.....but read thru the scriptures, take your time if you want, but try to find the requirements that Jesus and the apostles described that a Christian should be doing daily and see if they show us where we are wrong in stating that the WTS is or isn't doing that?
I do.
It may be a hard one because I do understand that some of those requirements are not understood and appreciated and taken seriously by them, but heck, they can give it a try if they dare.
-Removed-tell me why you are asking for a yes or no answer when the bible doesnt give one. tell me why you have provided no evidence of any other denomnation having love amoung themselves. tell me why you are asking us for a Biblical explanation when you are party to the same knowledge as us yet you are destined to be a king and priest with Christ judging the twelve tribes of Isreal, tell me why you have made no reference to Christs words which describe the identifying mark of a true Christian.

So you can't say whether or not you are the only Christians as only God/Jesus/Archangel Michael or whomever it is you believe can say for certain, but you believe only your organisation fits the scriptural requirement to be termed Christians.

define a true Christian from a false one, and that false ones do exist is also quite
apparent. Its simply not so easy to state yes we are the true Christians without
empirical evidence of the fact and its simply not so easy to say no those persons
cannot be Christians because of x, y and z. The Bible itself provides clear principles,
yet discernment and reflection are needed, for principles are not black and white like a
law or command. It would be easy to state, yes we are uncertain but we think that we
as an organisation fit that description, but without evidence and reason, its a hollow
assertion.
