Main discussion: Jehovah's Witnesses, the Trinity, and the deity of Christ
- Does it matter if Jesus is not God when the other tenets are true?
The core theological segment: after a 207-page JW book ('What Does the Bible Really Teach?') rattles a host and his wife, they studied what the Bible says about Jesus being God — the Great Commission's singular 'name' (Matthew 28:19), 'if you've seen me you've seen the Father' (John 14:9), Thomas's 'my Lord and my God' (John 20:28-29), and the stoning for blasphemy over 'I and the Father are one' (John 10:30-33). They conclude you can't argue someone out of a triune God but urge knowing why you believe what you believe instead of living on borrowed teaching.
