The doctrine of the Watchtower Society claims that Jesus was the Archangel Michael, bears the title "God", would have been even spoken to by doubting Thomas, with the title "God" and was the second highest in the universe. The highest was the Jehovah God, to which appertains the only true worship.
The Mosaic law (2nd Exodus 20.3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me) prohibits not only the people of God, but all that calls itself Christian, to have another god beside God. This does not only concern beeings like the Catholic sky goddess Mary or a angelic spirit creature that resides in the theology of Jehovah's Witnesses instead of Jesus, but it affects many more.
Who indulges in his money, his holiday design, his hobby, his work more or in similarly intense as in his God, is already in danger of breaking this Mosaic commandment. God's claim that rises in the Mosaic law is concerning everything that is to engross the faith and the thinking of people.
The Watchtower Society emphasizes again and again and with not decreasing enthusiasm, Jesus is not God, the Almighty, but only a God from the second row. With this and with the inaccurate translations of John (In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God - changed to - In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a God) is the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses in a two-gods system. For this "Lower God" Jesus plays in Jehovah's Witnesses religion a vital role.
As far as the Jehovah's Witnesses always talk like this, Jesus was not a God, but only an angel, so far remains, however, the fact that Jesus according to their doctrine has become the second highest and thus became a god. For Jehovah's Witnesses also teach that there are many gods but that they were only allowed to worship one of them. Satan for example is for them the God of this bad system. If Jesus, however, is the second highest in the universe, he must be a god. And as an indispensable tasks-fulfiller this second God is playing in their religious system several important roles.

The primitive, but brave attempt to change the Bible by simply inserting the indefinite article, has brought at least a few million people to follow the order of their mistress, the Watchtower Society, to break the first commandment. While they sound to the outside: "We keep up the Bible!", they even believe, they wouldn't have broken any law of the Bible. But they trample under foot the First Commandment. They have two gods, though only one of them they worship, the other appreciate only, but they have both. The second god is indispensable in their religion and is the living breaking of law.
The mystery of the Watchtower doctrine is just to portray a Jesus, who was executed correctly. For Jesus by making himself to God (forgiveness, eternal life), what was the reason for his being killed, he would be on the interpretation of Jehovah's Witnesses actually as another God the biggest lawbreaker of all time. But Jesus could only make himself to God, by declaring himself as the Almighty. Only this version is compatible with the Mosaic Law (2nd Exodus 20.3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me)!
But because we have learned fortunately from the mouth of Jesus that no icing on the cake is removed from the law until he comes back, we can and must assume that Jesus did not make himself to a second God in the universe, but clearly brought the message that the father is showing himself in Jesus.
Because Satan knows that he without the eradication of the name of Jesus can not anyone pull to destruction, he came up with a name of God that is in its absurdity and ungodliness not to be surpassed. Catholic monks created that name and set it into the world. This name was never found in the originals, but was drawn only from a letter-salad. This letter-salad came about because the Tetragrammaton YHWH was combined with the vowels of the word adonai.
This names mixing, however, had only the sense of signaling the reader to read not by accident YHWH, because it is forbidden to this day among the Jews.
This prohibition, which is not found in this form in the law and therefore has to be seen as a rabbinic hyperbole, after all led to the most daring of all naming errors.

To make full the degree of blasphemy, the Watchtower Society takes away Properties of Jesus Christ and transfers them without further ado to the Watchtower synthetic Jehovah God. This process of transferring the properties of Jesus on the Jehovah of the Watchtower Society, the Watchtower Society practices regularly. A second example of these Jesus-deleting tactics is found on the page: "How the Watchtower is twisting the Truth" The whole theology of Jehovah worshipers is nothing but an anti-Jesus substitute religion, insidiously making the process to make Jesus the people appear to be unimportant and irrelevant. The whole is a new edition of what is going on in the Catholic church with the Mother of God since a long time.
Everybody can imagine well the joy of the adversary: We only need to make one individual God from the Father and also make one individual God from the Son. And - bang - we have lots of people got to break the first and most important commandment.
