Yep, since they say that the "HE" in Acts 20:28 refers to Christ and not God.

ex:
24 But I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify solemnly of the gospel of the grace of God.

25 “And now, behold, I know that all of you, among whom I went about preaching the kingdom, will no longer see my face. 26 Therefore, I [o]testify to you this day that I am [p]innocent of the blood of all men. 27 For I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole purpose of God. 28 Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you [q]overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He [r]purchased with His own blood.


They say that the "HE" in verse 28 is Jesus mentioned in verse 24.

Even the KJV uses the word "HE" there though? But which "He" purchased it with his own blood? Jesus which means he is God. I've used this verse against JW's before and they really struggle to get around it.
