How do I refute the theological teachings of Jehovah's Witnesses?

[MarkusK]

Dear Catholic Forum,
A dear member of our family (born and raised in the Catholic faith) has given up
Holy Church and joined the Jehova’s Witnesses. Among his outrageous beliefs:
Christ is NOT God
When the body dies so does the soul.
At death God gathers the memories of the person and stores them
for later revival if the person is worthy of being resurrected in the New Earth. Otherwise,
the dead person is dead/finished/exists no more.

I implore the most learned authority in the Church to provide me with a list
of their beliefs and dogmas that are in total contradiction to Scripture.
This is important, because they claim that their beliefs and dogmas are
totally supported by Scripture.

I would like to do what I can to bring him back to Holy Mother Church.

In the Most Holy Name of Lord Jesus,

Markus
