Can anyone tell me the scripture where the Bible speaks:
1) Of no one being perfect but Jesus?
2) That we are all sinners. That even if you have lusted after a woman, you have commited adultery in your heart?
3) That Jesus and God are one being? (maybe also including the Holy Spirit; ie.. the Trinity)
4) Where Jesus says I am the God of Abraham. The One. I AM?
5) And explain the last part of Revelation where it says there will be a New heaven and a new earth, where it mentions all the dead rising to walk earth again under God.

My step-mother used to be a Jahovah's Witness and confuses the heck out of me when she starts talking about the Bible. :confused:

Here are some links that go with your questions:

1) Jesus deity: http://www.carm.org/cut/Jesus.htm

2) Matthew 5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

3) God as a trinity: http://www.carm.org/cut/trinity.htm

4) John 8:58, "Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am.” With Exodus 3:14 "God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”
  1. Jesus uses the same title for Himself that God uses of Himself.
  2. If you say that the verse is really, "I have been", then why did the Jews want to kill him -- especially when in John 10:30-33 they say they want to kill Him because He claimed to be God? Where and what did Jesus say to
5) Does the earth abide forever or not: http://www.carm.org/diff/2Pet3_10.htm

This won't answer all your questions, raphe did enough I think, but these scriptures will help with JW's.
Ex 6:3---Num 24:16---Is 9:6,,41:4,,43:3,14,15,,44:6,,45:15,21,,48,12---Exek1:24,,10:5---Rev 1:1,8,17,,2:27,28,,4:8,,11:17,,21:6,,22:13,, and the clincher 22:16 combined with 1:1.

The purpose is to take them step by step in this order to show them the different names of Jehovah. Put emphasis on the different names all the way through, writing them down if necessary. When you hit rev 22:16 you will see that Jesus claims the names that they have agreed are for Jehovah only! I believe you can even show this in the New World Translation. If done properly they absolutely can not deny the reality that Jesus is Jehovah. They must make a decision, reject it and continue in denial or accept Jesus. Your job is done either way, there will be no more reason to discuss it ever again.

Hope this helps, pray first that the Holy Spirit will lead you.
The most important thing with JW's and any other cult is to know what you know not what they do. Yes, it helps to know there doctrine, but you must know what you know first or they will bury you, they study much more than most christians.
