Αυτό είναι από τα βασικά σημεία που τους ξεχωρίζουν θεολογικά από τον κύριο Χριστιανισμό.

Πιστεύουν ότι ο Ιησούς είναι το πρώτο και ανώτερο δημιούργημα του Θεού (τον ταυτίζουν με τον αρχάγγελο Μιχαήλ πριν έρθει στη γη). Δεν αποδέχονται τη διδασκαλία της Αγίας Τριάδας όπως την κατανοούν οι Ορθόδοξοι, οι Καθολικοί και οι περισσότερες Προτεσταντικές Εκκλησίες. Για αυτούς, ο Θεός (Ιεχωβάς) είναι μόνο ένας, και ο Ιησούς είναι υποδεέστερος, όχι ίσος ή ομοούσιος.

Jehovah’s Witnesses

I spent more than 30 years dealing with the Jehovah’s Witnesses because they had converted my beloved mother, and as a monk, I couldn’t sleep at night and carried out intense studies. Words alone didn’t lead anywhere.

I secretly took from my mother’s room the publications of the Jehovah’s Witnesses and studied them in great detail, and I found hundreds of lies—terrible things. They even write that Christ was not resurrected, that Christ is not God—hundreds of lies, what more can I describe? I gathered everything and called them, along with my mother, an aunt of mine, and a professor, and we had a discussion.

The discussion lasted seven hours in Ouranoupoli. I didn’t reveal their books to them. I only said, “Scripture says here: whoever removes even a dot or a single letter will be cursed.” They agreed. “Of course,” they said, “we cannot remove anything.”

They got up like wild beasts to attack me, as if they wanted to strike me. We argued very fiercely about the divinity of Christ—“true God of true God,” as our creed proclaims.

That night, when I went to rest, I saw something—not exactly a dream, but something vivid, very alive. I saw a vast plain of enormous size, with thousands of people. I said, “What is this?” I went to see—and what did I see?

I saw the apostles forming a circle, and in the middle, with their halos shining, stood the apostles—I counted twelve—and I saw Christ, enormous, with a halo of immense size, like a huge building.

And I said, “How will I go there? How will I pass through this crowd?” But as soon as I approached, running to bow before Christ, the crowd opened, and I passed freely. When I reached the place where the apostles stood, Christ was blessing the people.

They opened the way for me. I even cry now as I say this—I saw the apostles open the path, and I ran and fell at Christ’s feet. He lifted me up and said, “My child, why do you worship me? Who am I? True God of true God.”

And I woke up crying, and I am still crying even now, after so many years. From that moment on, I never saw my mother again. I was an orphan—my father had died in the German war—and we suffered greatly. Later, my mother was taken by the Jehovah’s Witnesses. What can I say… Christ is risen.
