You should read the thread as my point wasn't that I was 'asking' but that I was debating why a JW would worship Jesus if they didnt consider Him to be God.

Count it all joy, I thought you were crying out for answers. Trying to win souls for Christ Jesus. I apologize if you were offended. My intentions were never meant to hurt anyone. God Bless.

Still your sister in Christ Jesus?

They believe that Jesus is Archangel Michael.

We are to only worship God not angels
They will tell you, it's "obeisance" Jesus not "worship" Jesus. In their book they deliberately translated the ancient Greek word "proskuneo" which means "worship" to obeisance when it pertains to the worship of Jesus. They removed the word worship from every passage dealing with Jesus and replaced it with obeisance in their book.

When anyone says they are 'saved' by Jesus or get on their knees and PRAY to Jesus...that is CLEARLY Worship not obeisance

He knows his limits. Being Archangel and powerful out of respect for Jehovah he did not overstep his authority.
