Jesus is lord?
You are correct Jesus is Lord. but anybody that is of higher status then you can be considered lord. Jesus is Lord because he is the only beggotton son of God, which means he is a much higher status then us or any of the angels, but above Jesus is another Lord. Jesus refers to him as the Father in the new testement. He does have a name, and in fact it is mentioned almost 7000 times in the old Testament. The Divine name is Jehovah, also better known to Hebrew scholars as YWAH. so although Jesus is Lord, Jesus repeatedly in the Gospels points all the attention to His Father. Jesus is not to be worshiped, but Jehovah God is. However, we should appreciate what Jesus has done for us, and even more so what Jehovah has done for us. He sent his son to earth to be killed on a torture stake by imperfect humans to pay for that original sin that happened because of Adam and Eve(Romans 5:12. But Jehovah is the creator of the universe, so he is the one that is the Lord that your addressing Jesus as. Jehovah is a "Jealous God" and he exacts exclusive devotion. So to sum it up. Respect Jesus and follow his example, but don't worship Jesus, Worship Jehovah God.
Why do people not worship Jehovah when Jesus commands specifically to worship only Jehovah?
Most of the people I've known that does not worship Jehovah has the ff reasons: 1. They believe in the trinity. Three persons in one God. 2. They believe that Jesus is God. 3. They don't believe that Jehovah is the name of God. 4. They don't believe that God's personal name should be pronounced. My advice, continue searching for the truth about Jehovah so you may have the chance to have an eternal life. John 17:3 God Bless.

Which group of Christians is known worldwide for worshipping Jehovah?
Jehovah's Witnesses
People think and say Russelites are Jehovah's Witnesses but they are not they are a sect of Jehovah's Witnesses the floor plan is like Jehovah's Witnesses but they knocked down a couple walls?
Charles Russell founded the Watchtower magazine and the Watchtower Society, a legal entity used by Jehovah's Witnesses. He did not found Jehovah's Witnesses, as Jehovah has had his Witnesses since the time of Abel. Jesus is the founder of Christianity, at which point in time all of Jehovah's faithful Witnesses who prior to this had been Jewish, began to include people of all nationalities in the newly established Christian Congregation. Mistakenly, a number of people thought the Bible Students, as Jehovah's Witnesses were known back then, were followers of Pastor Russell. Actually, this was not the case; we follow no human. Our leader or head is Jesus Christ. Because of this erroneous belief, as well as in attempts to discredit the fact that we were (and are) practicing Christians serving Jehovah under the headship of his Son Jesus Christ, they branded us with this apellation, which some still resort to down to this day. Additionally Yes the russelites is what many people called the Bible students at that time but as stated before it was not their actual name. Jehovah's Witnesses never did claim to be called by such a name because they knew who they were following even though Brother Russell was of major importance, he was not their leader, only the most high Jehovah God and Jesus Christ are. The term "Russelites" was never a name that Jehovah's Witnesses or the Bible Students officially adopted or embraced. It also was not ever endorced by Charles Russel himself. It was a term coined by some on the outside of the organization.
What do many Jehovah's Witnesses believe about Judaism?
They are the people who disowned Jesus and were hence disowned by god. Being scattered around Europe with no homeland.ANSWERJudaism is the "religion, philosophy, and way of life of the Jewish people" -- Rabbi Dr. Louis Jacobs; all of which were once founded firmly on scripture. Jehovah's Witnesses today think that the Jewish people have departed from their biblical roots and that their ancestry and history no longer guarantees them a special relationship with the Creator.
