How Many Gods Do You Believe In?: There Is Only One True God
How Many Gods Do You Believe In?: There Is Only One True God
By Lorri MacGregor
In answer to the above question, every Jehovah’s Witness will answer–ONE! Yes,
Jehovah’s Witnesses worship and acknowledge only one God, namely God the Father,
whom they call “Jehovah.” They believe the Holy Spirit is an “active force” or God’s power,
and they reduce Jesus to a secondary god, who is also known as the archangel Michael in
their theology. They reject the Trinity.

We have already established that there is ONE TRUE GOD by nature. Now we ask
the Jehovah’s Witnesses the key question -- Is Jesus a true god or a false god? They will
have to admit that Jesus is a true god. This forces them to believe in more than one true
god! You can’t believe in two true gods as the Jehovah’s Witnesses do and still be a
Christian and a Bible believer! This is a real dilemma for Jehovah’s Witnesses.
I remember presenting this concept to one Jehovah’s Witness. I then asked, “How
many gods do Jehovah’s Witnesses believe in?” After thinking over the matter carefully,
and pondering at some length, the Jehovah’s Witness finally replied, “one and a half!” The
explanation was of course, that they believe Jehovah [God one] created Jesus [god two],
but Jesus was at the same time the archangel Michael, so Jesus became “sort of a hybrid
being, a god/archangel Michael” at the same time! This reasoning also makes them poly-
theists, as does their rendering of John 1:1 in their “New World Translation” of the Bible: “In
[the] beginning the Word was, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god”. No
reputable Bible scholars will endorse this [mis]translation. The text should read “and the
Word [Jesus] was God”.
