Description

You see us in our public ministry. You may have read about us in news reports or heard things about us from others. But how much do you really know about Jehovah’s Witnesses?

As Jehovah’s Witnesses, we strive to adhere to the form of Christianity that Jesus taught and that his apostles practiced. 

 (1) God. We worship the one true and Almighty God, the Creator, whose name is Jehovah. 

(2)  Bible. We recognize the Bible as God’s inspired message to humans.

(3)  Jesus. We follow the teachings and example of Jesus Christ and honor him as our Savior and as the Son of God. 

(4)  The Kingdom of God. This is a real government in heaven, not a condition in the hearts of Christians.

(5)  Salvation. Deliverance from sin and death is possible through the ransom sacrifice of Jesus. 

(6) Heaven. Jehovah God, Jesus Christ, and the faithful angels reside in the spirit realm

(7) Earth. God created the earth to be mankind’s eternal home.

(8) Evil and suffering. These began when one of God’s angels rebelled.

(9) Death. People who die pass out of existence.

(10) Family. We adhere to God’s original standard of marriage as the union of one man and one woman, with sexual immorality being the only valid basis for divorce.

(11) Our worship. We do not venerate the cross or any other images.

(12)  Our organization. We are organized into congregations, each of which is overseen by a body of elders.

(13)  Our unity. We are globally united in our beliefs. 

(14)  Our conduct. We strive to show unselfish love in all our actions.

(15) Our relationships with others. Jesus commanded: “You must love your neighbor as yourself.” He also said that Christians “are no part of the world.”
