    Fascinating Bunch of Lies in the many made up answers here!!! 

    @Daymello, who has a collaboration of lies. You obviously are against them due to your Trinitarian beliefs. JW’s are opposite to what he says. One thing is that JW’s only have 2 meetings a week not 5. Their work is voluntary and based on voluntary donations that contributes to their world wide work. The funds contribute to building  Kingdom Halls, printing of literature, disaster relief and more, it’s not used for selfish reasons. You need to stop spreading lies....

    The replies coming from JW’s themselves are real and honest.  Truly one should be able too or want to defend their beliefs/faith if they are satisfied and truly believe what they have learned to be True!

    They are criticized for appreciating their knowledge of the ancient scriptures and wanting to share it to the World. Jesus did Not give the 

    Command to never preach about God, he was all for it. Matthew 24:14 

    As far as I’m concerned Jehovah’s Witness’s are the most dedicated and faithful humans on this planet. 

    So What! if they don’t follow the Old traditions of many countries Today many from Pagan origin anyway.

    Jehovah’s Witness’s at least try to live clean moral lifestyles, they are non-violent, neat and clean folks, who have to live in this crazy world like everyone else. They  give of their time Freely to share an encouraging scripture and share a better hope then what this government offers for our future. 

    They are a Ray Of Sunshine  ☀️ if you Listen to what they are saying and put your ignorance aside, you should stop criticizing them especially if you never speak to them yourselves.

    Many have left their own religion of many years  because they were not satisfied at what they were learning and seeing. But After studying the scriptures with Jehovah’s Witness’s they get a better understanding about life and what their  future really holds. All ages become Jehovah’s, even many over 50 years old and later in life. 

    There is much Truth in the Message from the Bible that they share and it has changed  peoples lives for Better.....

    They live simple lives and they are happy, you can see it. Which  is what counts in the long run. Happiness is not easy to achieve in Today’s  Society.....

    You can learn all you need about them at JW.org 

    Many other sites posted here are propaganda and lies about them. JW’s are open about their beliefs even in public , be brave and talk to them for a change , and not behind their backs.......

    They are not a Cult , if you say they are then consider yourself as part of one too as you follow what man says like a robot.  They will continue to follow God’s Word, Not Mans....

    Jehovah's Witnesses follow in the footsteps of Jesus. Besides preaching the main theme of the Bible which is the kingdom of God. Matthew 24:14. They obey Jesus' command of not being a part of the world. John 17:16 - James 4:4. They don't participate in politics or wars or pagan rooted celebrations.

    They are sociopaths who require their members to die rather than receive life-saving blood transfusions.  They would do the same to their innocent children if the law would let them.  They claim to be Christian yet reject the divinity of Christ and other dogmas of the Christian faith.  When they discovered that the Bible did not support their wacky views, they rewrote the Bible to match their views, which proves they are intellectually dishonest.  They have falsely predicted the end of the world several time.  In so doing, they discourage their members from becoming educated and from advancing in life.0

    For the most part, JW's are seemingly nice people who adhere to their "religion" ferociously.  They are taught directly by the watchtower, what the watchtower wants them to blindly believe. They have "re"-translated the bible to fit their ideologies. 

    They believe...Throughout history, there have been "faithful JW's who have managed to "keep The truth" in spite of the "demonic" doctrine of Trinitarianism that has permeated the Christian church in "Christendom." Christendom is filled with pastors who are antichrists in churches run by Satan and who support the earthly governments which are all of the devil. In other words, all of Christianity is false; and only the Jehovah's Witness "theocratic" organization ("Watch Tower") led by several men in Brooklyn, New York, is "true" 

    According to Jehovah's Witness' theology, God is a single person, not a Trinity, who does not know all things and is not everywhere. He first created Michael the Archangel through whom He created all "other things," including the universe, the earth, Adam and Eve, etc.

    (Please note: all beliefs are subject to change...Such changes and even contradictions are frequent in the WT org...  When a doctrine changes, they tell their followers that the light of truth is getting brighter.)

    After Adam sinned, the paradise which God had created for them was ruined. So, God instituted a system of redemption which was revealed in the Bible and would ultimately lead to the crucifixion of Jesus the Messiah.When it came time for the savior to be born, Michael the Archangel became a human in the form of Jesus. Jesus grew and kept all the laws of God and never sinned. Finally, when Jesus died, it was not on a cross but on a torture stake where he bore the sins of mankind--but this did not include Adam's sins. Jesus rose from the dead as a spirit, not physically (his body was dissolved and taken by God); and during his visitations to people on earth, he manifested a temporary physical body for them to see and touch.

    When you study with the Jehovah's Witnesses, you agree to attend five meetings a week where you are taught from Watchtower literature. You cannot be baptized until you have studied their material for at least six months and have answered numerous questions before a panel of elders. Men are not supposed to have long hair or wear beards, and women are to dress in modest apparel. They refuse to vote, salute the flag, sing the "Star Spangled Banner," celebrate birthdays or Christmas, won't take blood transfusions; and they can't join the armed forces. A schedule of door-to-door canvassing is required where you distribute the Watchtower literature, acquire donations, and forward all monies to the headquarters in Brooklyn, New York.

    If you ever leave the Jehovah's Witness organization, you are considered an apostate and are to be shunned.

    excerpt from:

    https://carm.org/jehovahs-witnesses-in-a-nutshell 

    The WT teaches that without their guidance, no one can understand the truths in the bible:

    We all need help to understand the Bible, and we cannot find the Scriptural guidance we need outside the "faithful and discreet slave" organization" (WT)(*even though they are self appointed)

    there are so many things wrong with this cult,but the main thing is: We must know who God is.. Jesus came to make Him known, not just His name but His character, His ways, What he wants from us.(Whoever has seen me has seen the Father-John 14:9) And the ONLY name above ALL names is that of Jesus...(Phil 2:8`11) John 8:24 says..."unless you believe that I am, you will die in your sins. and Isaiah 43:10 says " Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me."

    What puzzles me when it comes to Jehovah's Witnesses is WHY would they want anyone to KNOW about their 'religion' when only 144,000 humans will make it into heaven? [Based on what they believe] If there was only enough desert for 6 people - I wouldn't invited all of the neighbors over for 'coffee'.

    They are an offshoot of Christianity, who have rejected virtually every truth Jesus Christ gave to His Christian Church.

    Nothing special about JW's.  They are just like all the other believers out there that claim there is a god.  They have the same baseless claims and assumptions as all other religion.  Claiming to know things that nobody could know, claiming their holy book is a direct message from their deity, etc.  And like all other religions, it has failed to meet the burden of proof to back up those claims and assertions.  Religion is defended without reason and against all reason.  Boasting wild and dubious assertions from question sources without any proof.  It is dishonest to assert as fact that which is not evidently true.  Yet, they do so anyway totally ignoring logic, reason and common sense in favor of magic and the supernatural.  If they want more believers, all they need to do is DEMONSTRATE their god.  That would instantly convert everyone. But yet, like so many before them in the last 2000 plus years, they cannot.  Religion is literally the power of pretend.  Make believe.  Fantasy.  Wishful thinking.  Nothing more.

    If anyone wants to know what we believe, we have that information in our official statement of beliefs.

    https://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/

    Specific questions that many ask, and their scriptural answers are also in that site, and you are invited to read them.   There is also a video that shows us in action preaching and in unity all over the world. We are not secretive or cult-like in any way.

    We are Christians who believe in the inspired word of God above any human doctrines.  We believe that the Creator of all things is Almighty God, whose name appears in the ancient Bible manuscripts 7000 times, and in English, His name is Jehovah.  Psalm 83:18

    We believe that Jesus Christ is the firstborn, only begotten Son of God, our Lord and Savior, who died for our sins.  Through faith in him and obedience to what he taught and commanded for his disciples to do, we believe that he promises everlasting life. John 3:16

    You are invited to look at the questions and read the answers.  We believe the same things all over the world, and do not allow man-made religious doctrines divide us.  We must be as one, as Jesus and his Father and God are one.  John 17:20-22

    What they believe doesn't in any way fall into the category of "Christian."

    We are like any other people. We do what we believe is the will of our God Jehovah. We choose to follow Jesus in the worship of our God and Father Jehovah and put his name first in our lives.

    If you want to know what we believe, we have a great Bible based website that helps others learn about God, Jesus and the kingdom.
