A group of people that study the bible. Not to be mistaken for a cult because they have the choice to leave whenever they want to. They make a habit of spending at least an hour every week going door to door and preaching. There prophesying may have been wrong in the past but they are genuinely nice people. They were also persecuted during the holocaust along with the Jews and Roma. They do in fact encourage their members to pursue post secondary education. Their people make the best husbands and wives out there.

The only faith that adheres to bible truths and tries their best to live the way Jesus Christ taught them. Jesus regularly went door to door, teaching others about God and making disciples, baptizing them. JWs also are the only faith to regularly use God's name, which is a command in the bible. Some of you people really need to do some research before you post in here. For example, rule numer one:
"1. Write for a large audience. The whole world's going to read your definition. Give background information so they understand your entry."
"1. Write for a large audience. The whole world's going to read your definition. Give background information so they understand your entry."
Why don't you people try reading the bible once in a while? You might learn something. Oh, the early members of the religion NEVER conspired with Hitler against the Jews. Who came up with that lie? Jehovah's Witnesses were persecuted and put in concentrations camps along with the Jews, even killed in the gas chambers.
Good Grief!!! Blood transfusions? How many people do YOU know contracted AIDS from tainted blood? Remember the pope??? Chagas Disease??? The bible is very clear on Gods view of the sanctity of blood. "Abstain from blood..." Please look up the word "abstain."
Those who are scorned and put out of the congregation have a lifetime of chances to return. Most who don't just don't want to live their lives morally and in accord with bible principles. It's their loss. Remember, when the catholics excommunicate, it's for life.

IT IS the desire of Jehovah's Witnesses that you become better acquainted with them. You may have met them as neighbors and fellow employees or in other daily affairs of life. You may have seen them on the street, offering their magazines to passersby. Or you may have spoken briefly with them at your door.
Actually, Jehovah's Witnesses are interested in you and your welfare. They want to be your friends and to tell you more about themselves, their beliefs, their organization, and how they feel about people and the world in which all of us live. To accomplish this, they have prepared this brochure for you.

Person: Look the true religion is coming!
Jehovah's Witnesses: Would you like to learn God's ways!
Person: Yes! You guys are not false and awkward like the Mormons but you base all your beliefs on the bible and don't create things like other religions. I was a Mormon and they are weird!

A person who believes that their only belief is the right belief, tries to inform other people and just ends up frustrating everyone.
Joe was sleeping in his bed at 6 am, then someone knocked at the door. Joe opened the door and to his frustration finds that it's another Jehovah's Witness.
