What does the Jehova Witness Church believe? Are their beliefs true?

Answer 1

Yes.

Jehovah's Witnesses are relatively unique among self-described Christians in that they understand the Scriptures to teach that God's Kingdom by Christ Jesus is a real government which 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

Jehovah's Witnesses believe in the scriptures, Christ Jesus and preaching about God's kingdom.

They believe and teach what Jesus taught rather then the Roman Empire/Church adopted after Christ died.

Because Jehovah's Witnesses will not adopted the same pagan beliefs that originated from Egypt as the major churches have done they are labeled by them as a 'cult' to scare people in believing they will go to a fiery hell.

Answer 3

True religion will follow five things:

1. Use, respect and obey God's Word - the Bible. Not just parts of it that fit what they want to hear, but all of it. (2 Tim. 3:16)
2. They would see that God's kingdom is the only solution to the problems that mankind faces. Realize that God's government does NOT rule through the earthly governments now in place. (Dan. 2:44)
3. They would be no part of this world as Jesus commanded them to be. The people of this religion would not allow themselves to be squeezed into the world's mold. (Romans 12:2)
4. They would be known by God's name - Jehovah, who is most high over all the earth. God's name was originally in the Bible over 7,000 times until a man decided to take it out. (Ps. 83:18)
5. They (the adherents to this true religion) would have love among themselves. Love bonds true Christians. They would love each other regardless of race or ethnic backgrounds. It would be a true world-wide brotherhood.(John 13:34, 35)

When you have found the religion that goes by these five things, and not just some of them, but ALL of them, then you have found the one true religion.
I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses. I invite you to examine our religion with the above things and judge for yourself if it is the truth.

Answer 4

We as Christians believe in following the Bible. I am a Christian, one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Clearly I think my beliefs are correct. Some of my beliefs, are generally excepted as true, such as Murder is wrong.

Answer 5

It's Jehovah's Witnesses.Jehovah is the personal name of God.And we feel that Satan has unjustly accused Jehovah of bribing Humans to worship him.We are witnesses to that fact.See psalms 83:18-Names God as Jehovah,and the first few chapters of the book of Job for the accusations Satan is making.We believe Jesus Christ is God's son and his kingdom will soon put Satan and all who follow him out of business forever.Everything I've mentioned can be proven with the bible.We are listed in the phone book if you want to know more,all meetings are free and open to the public.

And to the claims of using the personal name of God I submit the following
JEHOVAH
A mispronunciation (introduced by Christian theologians, but almost entirely disregarded by the Jews) of the Hebrew "Yhwh," the (ineffable) name of God (the Tetragrammaton or "Shem ha-Meforash"). This pronunciation is grammatically impossible;
