Jehovah's Witnesses: What is grace? Undeserved kindness?

I don't have a lot today, just a couple of scriptures to meditate upon, perhaps read in context and match up in parallel.

"So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy."-- Romans 9:16
"But we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in the same way as they also are."-- Acts 15:11.

You can read in several translations and similar scriptures here: http://bible.cc/romans/9-16.htm 
and here: http://bible.cc/acts/15-11.htm

  1. Yes,it is.
    Grace is 'undeserved kindness'.The Watchtower likes to make up their own lingo or cult 'pure language'.

    Jehovahs Witnesses who are they?
    A) They are at your door to recruit you for their watchtower society corporation,they will say that *we are just here to share a message from the Bible*... this is deception right off.
    B) Their *message* creed is a false Gospel that Jesus had his second coming in 1914.The problem with this is it's not just a cute fairy tale,Jesus warned of the false prophets who would claim *..look he is here in the wilderness,or see here he is at the temple*.
    C) Their anti-blood transfusion ban against *whole blood* has killed thousands.
    D) once they recruit you they will *love bomb* you in cult fashion to also recruit your family & friends or cut them off.

  2. Hebrews 9:28 show us that Jesus has already come once.. to die for our sins, and he will come a SECOND time. So this JW idea of the Lord's invisible return is unscriptural according to Hebrews 9:28 and also Matthew 24 where Jesus says, "23At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘There he is!’ do not believe it. ..
    26“So if anyone tells you, ‘There he is, out in the desert,’ do not go out; or, ‘Here he is, in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it. 27For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 29“Immediately after the distress of those days "‘the sun will be darkened,... the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. Yes, here Jesus confirms that as Revelation 1:7 says "Every eye will see him"!
