Jehovah's Witnesses

Not trying to stir the pot, @yellow rose Your Info regarding the NWT is completely inaccurate and obviously biased. I'm not trying to change anyone's beliefs. That could be a huge waste of each other's time. But since you criticized the NWT, you should know this.. prior to publishing the NWT, we used the KJ Bible among others. One of the primary reasons we published the NWT was to restore Gods personal name where other translations had replaced it with different 'titles' such as "God Almighty, Sovereign Lord, and Creator". If you check your own Bible it may still be there @ Psalm 83:18. God wants us to use his personal name, and Jesus encouraged us to use his name: Matthew 6:9 and John 17:26.

In regards to the NWT, as I pointed out earlier, if someone prefers to use their own favorite Bible, the Truth can still be found there, and we're happy to study the Bible with those who prefer to use their own Bible! It's absolutely absurd to accuse us of changing anything to fit our beliefs. That's an outright lie.

It's really unfortunate that some of you have had bad experiences with JW's coming to your home. We certainly mean no harm, but we take serious Jesus' command to share the good news with others. Many many people have welcomed us into their homes to learn about the message from the Bible. Even if they want to use their own copy of the Bible, we are able to share the good news with them.

Know what else? We NEVER solicit money from our members or visitors. NEVER do we pass a collection plate or ask for tithes. We don't charge to perform weddings, funerals, or baptisms. Jesus said 'you received free; give free'. We don't charge for our literature either. Prior to 1950, when the NWT was released, we had to purchase Bibles from other publishers. But we made them available to the public at wholesale cost. Today we operate a world class publishing operation. We make the Bible available to anyone wanting one, in dozens of languages, to anyone wanting one. Free of charge.

Yes, religion is corrupt, as was pointed out by someone earlier. Greed and love of money has been a driving force with many religious organizations. Look at the tel-evangelists and the massive fortunes they have amassed. It's disgusting. That could hardly be said about Jehovahs Witnesses. Our desire is to teach people the Bible's message. There is no monetary gain.. in fact, we spend a fair amount of time and our own money keeping gas in the tank, to reach as many as possible with the good news!

"We come from hundreds of ethnic and language backgrounds, yet we are united by common goals. Above all, we want to honor Jehovah, the God of the Bible and the Creator of all things. We do our best to imitate Jesus Christ and are proud to be called Christians. Each of us regularly spends time helping people learn about the Bible and God’s Kingdom. Because we witness, or talk, about Jehovah God and his Kingdom, we are known as Jehovah’s Witnesses."

If you're really interested in knowing Truth about the Bible's message, you have the opportunity to prove for yourself, with your own Bible, the facts about things like the trinity, hellfire, the condition of the dead, and endless other topics. Our official website, jw.org is designed to give you the opportunity to use your own Bible and find answers to life's big questions. It's available in 889 languages. That's not a typo. People from all over the world are able to do their own research from the comforts of their own homes. It's free of charge.
