In the April 2024 episode of JW Broadcasting, David Splane warns all that would oppose the preaching work done by Jehovah’s Witnesses that they are fighters against God and are doomed to fail. There is only one problem, while preaching about Jesus and his kingdom was a command given to his apostles, there is no […]

This video carefully examines what was preached as good news in the first century and compares that with what is preached by Jehovah’s Witnesses […]

Acts 5:42 “while I did not hold back from telling […]
In the previous post an examination of every opportunity Jesus took advantage of for teaching the people was made. In not one of them did we find a description of Jesus approaching a home, knocking on the door and giving a presentation about the kingdom of God. The Bible tells us that the twelve were […]
