401: Official creed of Awana Clubs International (A.W.A.N.A.)
We believe in God as absolute and sole Creator and Sustainer of the universe, and that creation was by divine command, from nothing and not through an evolutionary process. (John 1:3, 10; Acts 17:24-25; Genesis 1:1) We believe that God, by His sovereign choice and out of love for men, sent Christ into the world to save sinners. (John 3:16; 1 Timothy 1:15; 1 John 4:14) GOD THE SON We believe that Jesus Christ was fully God in the flesh and fully man, that He was born of a virgin and that He lived a sinless life, in which He taught and performed mighty works and wonders and signs exactly as revealed in the four gospels. We believe that He was crucified, shed His ... He convicts of sin, regenerates, indwells, baptizes and seals all believers at the moment of their salvation, filling them in response to yieldedness with the goal of conforming them to the image of Christ.

403: William Barclay: Many Witnesses, One Lord

If I say: 'James is man,' then I am simply describing James as human, and the word man has become a description and not an identification. If John had said ho theos en ho logos, using a definite article in front of both nouns, then he would definitely have identified the logos (the Word) with God, but because he has no definite article in front of theos it becomes a description, and more of an adjective than a noun. The translation then becomes, to put it rather clumsily, 'The Word was in the same class as God, belonged to the same order of being as God ... John is not here identifying the Word with God. To put it very simply, he does not say that Jesus was God'." (Watchtower, May 15, 1977, ... ...

404: Scholars on the Personality of the Holy Spirit
When Jehovah's Witnesses tell you the word spirit, as used in the Bible, means wind or breath, tell them they are full of hot air!

407: Questions for advocates of inherited sin
Total hereditary depravity (or Inherited Sin) We Speak truth in LOVE Questions for advocates of inherited sin Why did Jesus never teach that man was depraved or blamed mans sin on Adam.

We believe that Jesus Christ, who is God and man, through his atoning, sacrificial death on the cross for our sins and his resurrection, is the only way of salvation; he alone saves us from sin and judgment and purifies us from the contamination of the world caused by sin. We believe that Jesus Christ rose from the dead, ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father.

409: What is the 1000 Year Reign of Christ?
We would ask you to read the following passages which point this up so vividly: Matthew 16:18, Coll. 1:13, and Hebrews 12:28. Revelation Chapter 20 is central to the millennial controversy, and is perhaps the most disputed text in the Bible. This is the crucial paragraph.

422: What Must I Do To Be Saved ?
Christ likened this change to a birth and taught Nicodemus, "Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God" (John 3:5). Of the 27 books comprising the New Testament, there is one book which is particularly helpful in understanding the nature of conversion. This book is Acts of the Apostles which tells of the conversions of many different people. In Chapters 2, 8, 9, 10, 11, 16, 18, and 22 are 8 key examples of conversion and from these examples certain universal principles of conversion can be understood. First, conversion is dependent upon the acceptance of the Word of God by the sinner. Jesus said, "The seed is the Word", ... Third, this change in a person's heart must lead to certain actions before conversion is complete. One of these actions is confession that Jesus is the Christ, for we read, "With the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation" (Rom. 10: 9,10).

426: Lesson 4: Worshipping God In Truth
But if it doesn't really matter what you believe, then it doesn't matter if you even believe at all. This is absurd. This philosophy exalts our conscience above the word of God.

433: Does God Approve Instrumental Music in church?
Thus, if an act of worship -is done without scriptural approval, it is done without faith, for faith comes by hearing the Word of God. Because that which is not of faith is sin, it is unnecessary that the Word of God prohibit the act; it is only necessary that it be uncommanded. Hence, the argument that instruments of music may be used because the Bible does not prohibit their use, is wrong. God has always required that man obey His directions; faith is defined as man's obedience to God's will, and man's actions contrary to God's will are called sin. Although the way in which God deals with man changed ... One of these historical occasions is when God dealt with the first of mankind, Cain and Abel, the children of Adam and Eve.

The monotheistic tradition is continued. Jesus was a Jew, trained by Jewish parents in the Old Testament scriptures.

In the same way that final resurrection and judgement were not present in the Old Testament but expanded in the New, so too with the doctrine of God.
