Context is the answer. The context happened like this: Jesus goes into the desert to fast from food and water for 40 days and nights. Then Satan shows up and starts tempting him. At every turn Jesus replies with a verse from scripture that condemned giving in to Satan's temptations. When Satan tempts Jesus to worship the Devil (himself) Jesus replies, "It is written: 'Worship the Lord your God and serve him only" Basically Jesus was saying, "I cannot worship you because scripture says man must only worship God." Remember that Jesus was both man and God.

Do the JW's believe Jesus as God?

Jehovah's Witnesses believe and teach that there is only one true God, Jehovah God; the Father. They believe and teach that Jesus is the first creation of Jehovah, and created all other things.
