Jehovah's Witnesses typically refer to a booklet entitled "Examining the Scriptures Daily" for a biblical thought each day. The verse for November 28, 2007 is:
To you it is granted to understand the sacred secrets of the kingdom of the heavens.—Matt. 13:11
Of course that "sacred secret" involved the meaning of the first prophecy in the bible, soon after the rebellion of Satan and Adam. For millenia, true worshippers did not understand that God's own Son would constitute the primary "Seed" who would defeat the Serpent Satan.

...(Revelation 12:9-10) So down the great dragon was hurled, the original serpent, the one called Devil and Satan...and his [demon] angels were hurled down with him. And I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have come to pass the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ
Even among the men and women who walked with Jesus, it was not until the day before he was impaled that Jesus explicitly taught that some humans would be resurrected to heaven.
(Luke 12:32) “Have no fear, little flock, because your Father has approved of giving you the kingdom [to rule alongside Jesus][compare John 10:16]
(Revelation 14:1) And I saw, and, look! the Lamb standing upon the Mount Zion, and with him a hundred and forty-four thousand

Is there a difference between Jehovah's Witnesses and Jehovah's Christian Witnesses?? Is one better then the other? Is one more devout then the other?

I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ , unto another gospel
which is not another , but there are some that trouble you and would pervert the gospel of Christ
But though we , or an angel from Heaven preach any other gospel , let him be accursed
