Answer 1

It would seem these numbers must be incomplete. This answerer has personally answered over 6000 questions (as of June 2007) and nearly all of those 6000 questions concerned Jehovah's Witnesses.

This is not to imply that Jehovah's Witnesses are interested in becoming popular, for the ONLY opinions of ongoing interest to a true Christian (such as a Jehovah's Witness) are those of Jehovah and Christ Jesus. Those who work to ingratiate themselves with some human or human group are not doing God's will.

(1 Thessalonians 2:4) We speak, as pleasing, not men, but God, who makes proof of our hearts.

(Matthew 6:20,21) Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven... For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.


Jehovah's Witnesses have the true religion. They are Christian (of course), but they are unique for their rejection of paganisms, use of God's personal name, and global preaching by every active adherent. No other religious organization can claim such purity of worship.

These facts about Jehovah's Witnesses are perhaps relevant to this question. The more one compares this Christian religion with others, the more remarkable it is shown to be.

1. Jehovah's Witnesses have no paid clergy. Yet they remain tightly organized with more than 6.5 million active Jehovah's Witness preachers (about 16 million associate themselves with the religion). Even fulltime preachers and workers at their branch offices are unpaid volunteers.

2. There is no elite class among Jehovah's Witnesses. Even the few 'anointed' among them enjoy no special privileges in their congregations on earth. An anointed person (one of those relative few with a heavenly hope) is not elevated above his fellow congregants in any way, and he may not even qualify for appointment as a simple 'deacon' or elder. There are no titles; EVERYONE is addressed as 'brother' or 'sister'.

3. No person benefits economically from the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses. Even the 8 to 20 men who serve on their Governing Body receive simply room, board, medical care, and reimbursement for certain personal expenses according to the exact same provision as every other branch volunteer.

4. About a hundred men have served on Jehovah's Witnesses' Governing Body committee during the past 125 years or so. The vast majority of them have spent the vast majority of their adult lives volunteering for their organization's purposes, and the vast majority have died faithfully and near-pennilessly while still under their legal 'vow of poverty'.

5. Amazingly, Jehovah's Witnesses did not splinter as a sect from some other religion. Instead, a truly tiny but sincere group of bible students studied only the Scriptures to determine the will of God. Thus their religion remains absolutely independent of and not carrying the sins of Christendom's history, yet carries the authority of Christ's teachings.

6. Despite the distortions of anti-Witnesses, throughout their modern history Jehovah's Witnesses have refused to claim divine inspiration or infallibility for their teachings. They have pointed to the bible (and not any particular translation) as the only inspired infallible means of knowing God's thoughts. For over 125 years, their teachings have been presented as merely the results of sincere bible research by imperfect but godly humans.

Answer 2

I agree w/ tebone, Misty and all the different Catholics on right here who tried that can assist you. since they have lined numerous the Catholic faith, I won't quite clarify plenty extra, since i'm going to basically be repeating them. Catholicism develop into certainly based via Christ, in the previous he ascended into Heaven. basically hundreds of years later did Martin Luther insurrection against Catholicism and its Church as a results of fact he did no longer consider lots of its teachings. After him, many different reformers all started forming their very own church homes and ideology and claimed that theirs develop into the authentic church, whilst in certainty, the Catholic church has remained familiar in its teachings. definite, there have been errors the CC did, yet each church, Protestant/Catholic, has made them. do no longer pay attention to the Catholic bashers on right here, rather Chris. And if every physique says that we worship Mary and the saints and not God, they actually might desire to seem into the Catholic faith in the previous they condemn/criticisize. The Catholic Church additionally has devotions to Jesus, such as a results of fact the Divine Mercy Chaplet. in case you replace to Catholicism, try going to the Latin Mass. this is particularly suitable, has a extra reverent style of worship, and it develop into the 1st style of Mass in the previous Vatican II.

Answer 3

The only thing to gain from this is the determination to keep
humanity thinking of their separateness from one another instead of their Oneness.........
Try the spirituality of ONENESS of all that is and forget your man made belief systems and differences in religious doctrine that keeps humanity at odds.
