Thanks Carlos...
My wife felt they are different, because todays christians dont use jehovah to refer to their god..instead they use Christ, therefore their religion is called Christianity
Many people outside Christianity believe Christ is the name of god, or more simply the objective of reverence
I just say many secular ordinary people tend to  think Jehovah's Witnesses  are not the same as Christianity 
historically non- trinitarian beliefs are minority and often became the objective of persecution
in my reading Saviour in Hebrew Scripts meant the advent of Almighty God.
its not irratioanal some people believe Jesus is God when he was believed to be present as Saviour

 Dear Hiroshi,

How are you this week?

it seems i dont send you emails for many weeks but then suddenly i send 2 in the same week!

Well,we are ok...normal life here.

I just read one of your past emails from April 2011 again..and you mentioned that yourself and your wife attended the memorial of Jesus death...thats really great! and im glad your wife was able to understand alot of it...
i know its not the easiest subject to understand or explain...even people who have studied for many years sometimes find it a little complicated.

anyway,your wife asked if Jehovahs witnesses are the same as Christianity...

well,yes and no

Jehovahs witnesses are definitely Christians because we follow Jesus CHRISTS teaching as set out in the Gospels of the bible..(Mathew Mark Luke John)

Jehovahs witnesses read these Gospel accounts over and over,we study them,research them and try our very best to apply them in our life.

of course,we are both aware that we are both imperfect humans and no matter which religion or group we belong to ,we still make many mistakes.

Jehovah is the almighty God who created the universe and everything inside it,including you and I.

The original hebrew manuscripts used JEHOVAH or YHWH over 7000 times in the holy bible...

unfortunately,because of superstition,the Jewish nation stopped writing and using Gods name for fear that it would be like blasphemy.

they misused the law found at Exodus 20:7...please take a look when you have time.

in most modern bibles,that name JEHOVAH has been replaced with the titles God or Lord and so today when the name JEHOVAH is mentioned or seen in writing many many people around the world do not know the name or the meaning of it or who this person is,especially in oriental countries like Japan.

we are both followers of Christ and we obey ultimately Jehovah God as the giver of life ,therefore we really are trying our very best to live up to our name JEHOVAHS WITNESSES.

In contrast,many people in the world commonly call themselves Christian even though a vast amount of such ones do not read Gods word,barely know Christs teaching,and almost never apply those teaching in there personal lives.

As 2 Timothy 3 says in the beginning verses "they have a form of Godly devotion but proving false to its power"

Basically,many christians SAY they are Christians, they CLAIM to DO Gods will BUT by thier works and actions they show that they are actually FALSE christians proving false in actions.

The only way to see what a true christian is, is to ask and consult Jesus Christ and Our Father Jehovah God as written in the Gospels of the Bible.

Therefore jehovahs witnesses are christians in that we follow Jesus Christ in our lives BUT we do not regard ourselves in the same category as modern day religious groups who also call themselves christians even though they do many bad acts and believe many unscriptural,biblical teachings and doctrines.


anyway,hope you are well...i hope to hear from you when you have time

Carlos
