ARE Jehovah's Witnesses THE TRUTH ''''''''''''?

Answer 1

Jehovah's Witness teachings represent bible truth, and their rejection of idolatry and superstitious paraphernalia proves that they 'worship with spirit and truth' as Christ commanded.

(John 4:23-24) [Jesus said] True worshipers will worship the Father with spirit and truth, for, indeed, the Father is looking for suchlike ones to worship him. God is a Spirit, and those worshiping him must worship with spirit and truth.


Jehovah's Witnesses understand the Scriptures to teach that God's Kingdom will soon replace all earthly governments.
(Daniel 2:44) God of heaven will set up a kingdom... It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it itself will stand to times indefinite

That Kingdom will rule over the vast majority of mankind, most of whom will have been raised from the dead after Armageddon.
(John 11:23,24) Jesus said to her: “Your brother will rise.” Martha said to him: “I know he will rise in the resurrection on the last day.”
(Acts 24:15) There is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.

Until that resurrection, there is no suffering in "hell", or the grave. Sometime after the resurrection, death and "hell" will themselves be destroyed.
(Ecclesiastes 9:5) For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all
(Ecclesiastes 9:10) there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in Sheol ["hell"]
(Revelation 20:14) And death and Hades ["hell"] were hurled into the lake of fire

While a limitted number of humans will be resurrected to heaven to share in ruling over mankind, the vast majority (literally more than 99.9%) of Jehovah's Witnesses expect an EARTHLY hope, the same hope given to Adam and Eve.
(Genesis 1:28) God blessed them and God said to them: “Be fruitful and become many and fill THE EARTH and subdue it [caps added]
(Genesis 2:17) You must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will positively die [so never eating from that tree means never dying]

Interestingly, the Scriptures are full of references to this earthly hope.
(Psalms 37:11) 'the meek will possess the earth'
(Proverbs 2:21) 'upright will reside in the earth'
(Isaiah 45:18) 'God formed the earth to be inhabited'
(Matthew 5:5) 'the mild will inherit the earth'
(Revelation 21:3) The tent of God is with mankind

Answer 2

No we are not the truth. Do we have the "truth" as in, do we have the true Religion. Yes. It astounds me that this is such an upsetting concept. Anyone devout in their own faith should believe it to be the Truth.
If you or anyone reading this wants to know what we believe and why we feel it is the one true religion, there are two options.
The best option is to go to a Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses. Notice I did not say you had to sit through a meeting, although that is a good idea. Just go to a Kingdom Hall and find a Witness. Tell them you have questions. Either they themselves or someone else in attendance will be more than happy to try to answer any and all of your questions, as long as you at least somewhat polite.
If you do not wish to talk to us face to face then you can go to our official website at http://www.watchtower.org
As to the person who said we do not allow our children to get an education, that is a complete and total lie. I am sure there are some parents in every religion that does not approve of superflous education. It is the hope of every good Parent that their child be healthy, happy, and a good person. The same is true of Witness parents. As law abiding citizens we strive to help our chidren try to graduate High School or if need be get a GED. As far as extra education after that, that is entirely a matter between parent and child. I personaly will probably go to a technical school. I know other Witnesses and their children who have decided college is the route for them. Still others decide to stop seeking sechular education after High School. It is a matter of personal choice.

Answer 3

I assume you're asking if Jehovah's Witnesses TEACH or BELIEVE the truth?

Truth is defined as 'conformity to fact or reality". I doubt that anyone would argue that any one religion teaches all truth or all lies. Jehovah's Witnesses are no different. Sometimes what they teach conforms to fact and reality. Other times, as is evidenced by the failure of nearly all their prophecies, the outcome (the reality) proves beyond doubt that their teaching was not in accord with the truth.

But it is the human tendency to see faults in others and not in ourselves. Therefore Jehovah's Witnesses tend to overlook their own false teachings as if they're unimportant in relation to all their good points. They don't extend this same courtesy to any other religion, though, because other religions don't have the "truth". And how do they determine that? Because other religions teach things that are "false." And don't Jehovah's Witnesses do that, too?? Yes, but that's different. Why? Because Jehovah's Witnesses are human; therefore they see the weakness in other religions, but blind their eyes to their own.

In 1889, their founder Charles Russell criticized the "Second Adventists" whose prophecies had failed, calling them "false expectations" and contrasted them with his own "correct expectations" which also failed when the time arrived for them to be fulfilled. And yet Witnesses call it all "the truth".

Answer 4

Everyone has a right to there own beliefs so to them it is the truth. We all make up are own mind on what to believe.

Answer 5

The are a cult. Google some anti cult sites. There founder was in jail all the time. They believe in a newsletter and in some weird writings over the bible. Don't just take my word for it:

Answer 6

No, they are not. I've lost a family over them. Check out their watchtower. Type their name and divorce cases into your search engine and see what comes up. They will lie when it comes to child abuse in order to get what they want. They do not like to educate their children in order to keep them ignorant, under the guise of "the heathen world" causing them to live a sinful life. There are many other examples of it, just explore the facts, and you'll be fine.

Answer 7

I don't know i usually let my dog out when I see the coming.

Answer 8

No. They think they are the only ones that are going to get saved. and the rest of us non-witnesses are going to hell (die) according to them.

Answer 9
