Where can I a genuine copy of the Jehovah's Witnesses's holy book?

Question

It's called "The New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures" and I have called every bokostore in this city. It's not offered in the Watchtower website either. Any ideas?

Answer 1

Jehovah's Witnesses consider the Bible to be the only "holy book" of real interest to true worshippers such as themselves.
http://www.watchtower.org/e/lmn/article_02.htm

It is true that Witnesses have made famous the "New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures", which they print and distribute. There are more than 130 million copies of this modern-language bible in print, in dozens of languages.
http://watchtower.org/languages.htm

The entire text of NWT is freely available at the official website of Jehovah's Witnesses, and a personal printed copy can be requested at no charge:
http://watchtower.org/bible/
https://watch002.securesites.net/contact/submit.htm
http://watchtower.org/how_to_contact_us.htm


Jehovah's Witnesses certainly like NWT, but they are happy to use any translation which an interested person may prefer, and in fact Jehovah's Witnesses themselves distribute other translations besides NWT. Jehovah's Witnesses attach no particular infallibility or inspiration to NWT.

It seems signficant that the relatively small religion of Jehovah's Witnesses are the ones best known for their worldwide preaching work. Yet Jesus commanded that ALL who would call themselves "Christian" perform this public work:

(Matthew 28:19,20) Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you. And, look! I am with you all the days until the conclusion of the system of things.

Answer 2

You can find one at www.watchtower.org. And please don't beleive the mess that you here from other people about Jehovah Witnesses. that's exactly what Satan wants. We are not a cult. Look in the dictionary and you can find the true meaning of it. We teach out of the Bible no matter what version it is. If any bible is sliced and diced it is the one that does not have God's name in it which is Jehovah. and his name is in there over 6,000 times. We beleive in Christ and the importance of him coming and dying for our sins. He is the greatest man that ever lived and we have a whole book dedicated to explaining how great of a man he is. If however you would like a copy of the New World Translation and whatever copy of books that we have i will be more than happy to send you one. Please email me with your address and it will be no problem at all. If you would like i can refer your name to some one in your area to stop by your home. Because we are all over the world in fullfillment with JESUS command to preach to all the nations.

Music Girl is correct, you can obtain one at no charge from a Kingdom Hall, or you can ask one of us next time we call at your home. OR if you know some of us you can ask us any time.

As she said, you can read it online at http://watchtower.org/bible/

But actually our teachings can be found in any translation of the Bible, including the popular KJV.
=========================
ADDED: The Bible is available for ordering from our website. Just go to Publications Availabe.

http://www.watchtower.org/e/publications/index.htm

The Bible is the first thing. Scroll to the bottom; near the bottom you will read: "These items may be obtained from the local Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses. If you are not familiar with the location of the nearest Kingdom Hall, you may check the telephone book for the address, or you may write to one of our branch offices.

Jehovah's Witnesses provide personal and group instruction in the Bible at no charge. If you would like to have a qualified Bible teacher visit you in your home or at some other convenient place, this will gladly be arranged by Jehovah's Witnesses."

You will note the words "Branch offices" is a clickable link. Click on it to get the correct address:

Answer 4

you can get a free bible at any Kingdom Hall of Jehovah Witnesses or ask a witness when they come to your door. don't listen to anyone saying bad things about us, that we are a cult. we are not. we worship Jehovah God and Jesus Christ. we have a website and you can read the bible on it. www.watchtower.org

Answer 5

It is NOT the Holy Word of God! Certain cults have created their own version of the Bible because the Bible does not go along with their teachings. So these cults had to make up their own translation.
Contact me and I will send you a free copy of the Holy Bible in an easy-to-understand translation.

Answer 6

Any Kingdom Hall gives them out for free appearantly. I got one sent to me by a Jehovah's Witness because I asked.

Answer 7

Go to the Kingdom Hall they will gladly give you a copy of their Bible, in the hopes of pushing their false religion on you. While you are at it look up they founder of the Jehovah witness religion. You might be suprised what you can learn about him! Charles Taze Russell.

Answer 10

Why would you want a sliced and diced Bible? If you wish to know the truth about the JW, read on.

Is the Jehovah's Witness religion Christian?

The answer to the question is, "No. It is not Christian." Like all non-Christian cults, the Jehovah's Witness organization distorts the essential doctrines of Christianity. It denies the deity of Christ, His physical resurrection, and salvation by grace. This alone makes it non-Christian. To support its erring doctrines, the Watchtower organization (which is the author and teacher of all official Jehovah's Witness theology), has even altered the Bible to make it agree with its changing and non-Christian teachings.
Typical with cults that use the Bible to support its position is a host of interpretive errors:

* Taking verses out of their immediate context.
* Refusing to read verses in the entire biblical context.
* Inserting their theological presuppositions into the text.
* Altering the Biblical text to suit their needs.
* Latching onto one verse to interpret a host of others.
* Changing the meanings of words.
* Proclaiming some passages to be figurative when they contradict their doctrines.
* Adding to the Word of God.

Additionally, the Jehovah's Witness organization requires of its members regular weekly attendance at their "Bible Study" meetings where they are repeatedly indoctrinated with anti-Christian teachings. This is done by reading the Watchtower magazine, following along with what it says, reading the questions it asks, and reciting the answers it gives. In other words, the Watchtower Organization carefully trains its members to let the Organization do their thinking for them. For confirmation of this, please read Does the Watchtower organization control the JW's thinking?
The Witnesses are told they will be persecuted when they go door to door teaching their doctrines. They are further told that this is simply the enemy fighting against God's organization because they are in "the truth." So, when someone disagrees with them, they are conditioned to reflect on what the Watchtower has told them. They then feel confirmed in being in God's true organization on earth (like all cults claim). They are strongly encouraged to have friends and acquaintances that are only JW’s, thereby keeping outside examination to a minimum. They are told to shun those who leave their group, that way, there is no way to see why someone has left and no way to find out that they are in error from those who have found the truth in Christ. They are conditioned to shy away from any real biblically knowledgeable person. An example of this is frequently found on the Internet. I was once banned from a Jehovah's Witness chat room after I not only answered their objections to the Trinity and deity of Christ, but challenged them in return. Subsequently, my name was passed around to all other Jehovah's Witness rooms where I was banned from them as well. This is a frequent occurrence on the Internet where the Jehovah's Witnesses are alive and well. It is obvious that critical examination of their doctrines is not encouraged by the Watchtower Organization.
The Jehovah's Witnesses consider themselves to be Christians because they believe they are serving the true and living God. Like many cults, they think they are the only true church on earth. Yet, they deny the Trinity, the deity of Christ, the personhood of the Holy Spirit, Jesus' physical resurrection, and salvation by grace through faith.
The Jehovah's Witnesses are discouraged from looking into Jehovah's Witness history or old Watchtower literature which is replete with contradictions, altered doctrines, and false prophecies. Instead, they are indoctrinated repeatedly against basic Christian doctrines (Trinity, deity of Christ, etc) and into the notion that they alone are the true servants of God and that all others are either in "Christendom" or simply unbelievers.
Primarily, the Jehovah's Witness organization is a mind control organization that uses its people to pass out literature and send in "donations" to the headquarters in Brooklyn, New York.

"Thus the Bible is an organizational book and belongs to the Christian congregation as an organization, not to individuals, regardless of how sincerely they may believe that they can interpret the Bible." The Watchtower, Oct. 1, 1967. p. 587.


The Watchtower organization of the Jehovah's Witnesses is a non-Christian organization that uses its people to promulgate false doctrines, sell a multitudinous amount of literature, and expand its grip into the lives of its members and their families.
It is a non-Christian cult.
