I am confused about their current belief because of this answer a Jehovah Witness gave as follows::
"We still follow what was handed down by the HOLY SPIRIT and the Apostles of the Lord Jesus Christ, as recorded at Acts 15:29: "For it was the Holy Spirit's decision -- and ours -- to put no greater burden on you than these necessary things: that you abstain...from blood..." (Holman Christian Standard Bible)"
IF the HOLYSPIRIT is only a force, How does the Holy Spirit "decide" or "Hand down" directions" ?
Why does it say in Acts, "Why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Ghost......You have not lied to men but unto GOD" ? Is not that a reference saying the Holy Ghost is God?
