How can you be sure it wasn't supposed to be 11 ways, or 12 ways.
What if YOU missed one or two?
Where does bible state there are TEN ways, and only 10, and not 11, or 12??
a serious question. reply?
There are more scriptures that identify the people of God CCC. You will find there are only 2 or three faiths that meet the first two I gave. Only one faith meets all of those 10 identifying passages

You will have to determine that for yourself Mike. Do we? Do we exclusively serve and worship Jehovah? Do we participate in carnal warfare? Do we approach Jehovah through Jesus? Are we noted for the love we have among ourselves? Do we teach the Kingdom of God as mankind's only hope? Do we accept the Bible as God's inspired word? Did we seemingly form during the last days? Do we place our leaders on high, placing them above God? Do we allow unrepentant serious sinners to remain in good standing in the congregation? Do you see us joining with other faiths in activities, whatever they are?

If you are honest, you will see that we, and only we, meet those qualifications. I would like to know however if you are aware of any other faith that does.

I have asked others why they chose their faith, you should try that. Most people think God accepts all faiths, so most choose the faith that meets their beliefs best. Most do not even know what God wants.

I will say however, God identified the faith, I have posted enough to identify it beyond any reasonable doubt. All will either be preserved or destroyed by their choice, as sure as God exists

No, he's not saying that, because that would be against the rules of this forum.

Some of us do not believe there is any "right one". There is the "right one" for you and the right one for someone else, and that might even change over time as life changes.

I've got news for you. Everyone . . .Everyone who places their faith in Jesus Christ is acceptable to God because God credits the perfect righteousness of Jesus to all who believe in him. Don't believe me? Well, being a JW you won't believe Paul either, but he says exactly that in Romans chapters 3-5.

As for the JW's,

And let's be honest. You believe you have it correct, so you're here daily to edumucate us ignorant dolts into how we're wrong, and you're right. You're not better, or no different from anyone else. This is an internet discussion forum, and everyone believes they have it figured out.
