Jehovah witnesses
Jehovah's Witnesses is the name adopted by J. F. Rutherford's group of Bible Students on July 29, 1931, with splinter groups continuing to be called Bible Students or adopting other names (for example, the Dawn Scripture Students group in Chicago ").
Rutherford based the name “Jehovah's Witnesses” on words from the book of the prophet Isaiah (Isaiah 43:10-12).
10 And you are My witnesses, says the Lord, and My servant whom I have chosen, that you may know and believe Me and understand that it is I: before Me there was no God, and after Me there will be no God. 11 I am the Lord, and there is no Savior besides Me. 12 I have foretold and saved and declared; But you have no other, and you are My witnesses, says the Lord, that I am God; (Isa.43:10-12)
Can the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses be considered Christian?
The answer to this question is clear – no. The Jehovah's Witnesses organization is not Christian.
Like all non-Christian cults, Jehovah's Witnesses pervert the basic doctrines of Christianity. They deny the Divinity of Christ, His bodily resurrection, and salvation by grace. This alone is enough to consider them non-Christians.
To further their erroneous doctrines, the Watchtower Organization (which is the originator and teacher of all official theology of Jehovah's Witnesses) even produced its own translation of the Bible, changing the meaning of the text to suit their ever-changing and non-Christian teachings.
Errors in Bible Interpretation
Cults that use the Bible to justify their position typically make the following errors in their interpretation of Scripture:
- Reading individual verses out of context.
- Refusal to accept verses in the context of the entire Bible.
- Introducing your own theological biases into the text.
- Modify the biblical text to suit your needs.
- Interpretation of a number of Scriptures based on one verse they chose.
- Changing the meaning of words.
- Taking some Scriptures figuratively when they contradict their doctrines.
- Adding other scriptures to the Word of God.
Watchtower Rules
In addition, the organization of Jehovah's Witnesses requires each of its members to regularly attend weekly “Bible study” meetings, where they are constantly indoctrinated with anti-Christian doctrines. They read the Watchtower magazine, follow everything that is written in it, re-read the questions asked and repeat ready-made answers. In other words, the Watchtower organization subtly trains its members to give it the right to think for them.
Witnesses are taught that when they go from house to house and teach people their doctrines, they will be persecuted. They are told that it is the enemy who is fighting against God's organization because they are on the side of the "truth." And when someone contradicts them, they feel even more confirmed in their “truth” (like all other cults).
They are instructed to befriend and associate only with Jehovah's Witnesses, and therefore have little opportunity to examine their organization with an unbiased outsider's eye.
Jehovah's Witnesses must avoid those who leave their group. Thus, they have no way to understand why a person left them, or to learn from those who turned to Christ about their errors. They are trained to avoid anyone who knows the Bible well. Many examples of this can be found on the Internet.
I was once blocked from joining a discussion group of Jehovah's Witnesses after I not only answered all their objections to the Triune God and the Divinity of Christ, but also asked them several difficult questions. Subsequently, my name was transferred to all discussion groups of Jehovah's Witnesses, and I was denied access to them.
Jehovah's Witnesses consider themselves Christians because they firmly believe that they serve the true and living God. They, like many other cults, consider themselves the only true church on earth.
However, they deny the Triune God, the Deity of Christ, the Person of the Holy Spirit, the bodily resurrection of Christ, and salvation by grace through faith.
In addition to this, they are also taught not to be interested in the history of Jehovah's Witnesses or old issues of the Watchtower, replete with contradictions, altered doctrines and false prophecies.
Instead, they are constantly indoctrinated into denying the basic Christian doctrines (the Triune God, the Divinity of Christ, etc.) and the idea that they alone are the true servants of God, and everyone else is either in the “Christian world” or simply unbelievers People.
conclusions
In essence, Jehovah's Witnesses are an organization that manipulates the minds of people. It uses its members to distribute literature and send "donations" to its headquarters in Brooklyn, New York.
“So the Bible is an organizational book and belongs to the Christian community as an organization, and not to individuals, although they may sincerely believe that they can interpret the Bible for themselves.” Watchtower, 1 Oct. 1967. p. 587.
The Watchtower Organization of Jehovah's Witnesses is a non-Christian organization that uses its members to spread false teachings, sells a lot of literature, and has enormous power over the lives of its members and their families.
Jehovah's Witnesses are a non-Christian cult.
Orthodox Life
Although many books have already been published about Jehovah's Witnesses, written not only by theologians and religious scholars, but also by former members of the organization themselves, unfortunately, its ranks still continue to be replenished by those people who are little aware of the real activities of the Watchtower Society.
The purpose of this publication is to warn those who are attracted by these very smiling representatives of this community who offer to study the Bible together.
Of the representatives of non-traditional religiosity who abundantly filled our spiritual space at the end of the last century, the most recognizable were and remain to this day Jehovah's Witnesses and, perhaps, Mormons. They are always visible from afar. Some – by a specific dress code and the “Book of Mormon” in their hands, others – by their constant stands, which they constantly place in public places in order to attract attention. However, followers of any other religious organizations do not possess such obsessiveness and persistence as members of the Watchtower Society. They carry out their “missionary” work not only with enviable tenacity, but also with ingenuity: when doors are no longer opened for them, they send letters and invitations, make phone calls, try to start a conversation through the intercom, and stop them on the street. They like to be most active on the eve of Orthodox holidays. One day, one witness managed to “catch” me even in a pharmacy, when I was standing in line with a severe headache and was only thinking about how to buy medicine as quickly as possible. Suddenly a question came from behind me: “Why do you think people get sick? Do you think this is inevitable?
From the window of my house I can see the path on which they have been regularly standing with their literature for the purpose of “catch” for about ten years now. True, after in a number of countries, and especially in neighboring Russia, the organization “Society of Jehovah’s Witnesses” was prohibited at the legislative level, their preaching zeal decreased somewhat and they stopped openly picking on passers-by.
Adherents of the Watchtower Society, like many other sectarians, have their own weak point: their faith and religious thinking fit only within the boundaries and standards imposed by the organization. If the interlocutor manages to puzzle or push the Jehovah's Witness beyond these boundaries with his question, he will retreat and will not continue the dialogue with you. Jehovah's Witnesses do not like arguments to which they have nothing to argue. After all, the entire life of the members of this community is completely regulated by a set of unwritten rules that are unacceptable to break. Work in an organization is structured in such a way that a person has learned to think independently and cannot have his own opinion, as well as make independent decisions. Each Jehovah's Witness is thought for by their “think tank” – the Governing Body (or “Governing Body”).
I have always been amazed at the audacity with which they enter into dialogue, trying to teach someone, without knowing the answers to questions regarding their own doctrines. More than once I have encountered the fact that adherents of this community are poorly oriented or do not know the history of their movement at all. When asked about a number of miscalculations regarding unfulfilled prophecies or unpleasant facts from the life of their ideologists, they begin to dodge or answer categorically and confidently: “That didn’t happen.”
Jehovah's Witnesses have completely forgotten how, at the very beginning of the last century, they promised millions of people on earth who lived at that time that they would never die and would witness the resurrection of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, etc. In fact, forgetfulness and lies are the characteristic properties of this an organization that, as necessary, regularly reviews and streamlines its teachings. And this applies not only to predictions about the next Armageddon, the “exact” dates of which have been set 13 times over the years of the existence of witnesses, but also to other issues. For example, bans on vaccinations and organ transplants that existed until a certain time and were then lifted; ban on blood transfusions from 1945 to 1993. In 1994, the leadership of the Watchtower Society changed its decision under public pressure and allowed the use of small fractions of blood, with the publication of special tables, shifting the final decision on this issue to the conscience of the Jehovah's Witnesses themselves, many of whom, however, still refuse blood transfusions.
The organization “Society of Jehovah's Witnesses,” for all its apparent openness, is in fact a rather closed association. Even being inside it, most members do not know the whole truth, and so that adherents do not have any desire to know this truth, conditions of information isolation are created for them. They practically do not read any other literature, except for magazines and small books published by the community. It is also discouraged to read their own old publications, in which certain doctrines do not agree with their current interpretation. Behind their feigned friendliness and imaginary goodwill lies a very hostile attitude towards the outside world.
Jehovah's Witnesses deny any earthly government, military service, Christian holidays, and consider themselves citizens of a single theocratic state centered in Brooklyn. I often remember one of my former employees, Lyudmila, who worked as a junior nurse in our hospital department. She was always quite open, smiling and sociable. Suddenly, at some point, it was as if she had been replaced: she began to avoid everyone, became withdrawn and unsociable. After some time, she had a misfortune: her husband and granddaughter fell under the wheels of a truck. The husband died on the spot, the girl could have been saved, but she needed surgery and a transfusion of one of the blood components. The granddaughter had a rare 4th blood group and was Rh negative. Finding a donor for such a person is a big problem. Our manager decided to help and began calling all blood transfusion stations to find the red blood cell mass necessary to save the child, but Lyudmila protested and said rather persistently that there was no need to look for anything. Let it be as it will be. If the granddaughter dies, it means that Jehovah has decided so. At that moment, it became clear to everyone why Lyudmila had changed so much - she joined the sect of Jehovah's Witnesses.
They also do not like revelations and do not like those who, having lost faith in their teaching, seek to leave the association or try to defend their point of view on a particular issue. Or rather, they are afraid of such people, exclude them from their midst and forbid others to communicate with them, so that, God forbid, it would not occur to anyone else to get closer to the Truth.
One day we had a conversation with two witnesses at our home, during which I offered them to read the then recently published book “Crisis of Conscience,” written by Raymond Franz, a former member of the Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses, who left after a thorough study of the doctrines. "Watchtower Society." The witnesses looked at me with horror: “What are you saying, we won’t read such lies!” To my question, how do they know that there is a lie there, if they haven’t read it, a very characteristic answer was given: “The older brothers told us. We are not interested, we don’t read books of traitors!” Raymond Franz, whose life from birth to 60 years was inextricably linked with Jehovah's Witnesses, knew all their ins and outs from the inside and had access to information that was closed to ordinary members of the organization. At some point, the doctrines and decisions made by the Governing Body came into conflict with his conscience. This is how his first revealing book appeared. Its members are afraid like hell. Disappointment is one of the reasons why adherents who have been in an organization for a long time still leave it.
In general, any critically thinking person is a threat to the community, because such people, as a rule, leave and take others with them. This, for example, happened with the 34th President of the United States, Dwight Eisenhower, who, like his parents, was until a certain point a member of the Watchtower Society. But when in 1919, the head of the organization, Rutherford, began to rewrite and remake unfulfilled prophecies in a new way, Eisenhower’s father became disappointed, reconsidered his views and left, followed by his sons. By the way, Eisenhower subsequently tried in every possible way to hide information about his affiliation with the organization, fearing that this could cost him the presidency. The Watchtower Society is one of the largest organizations in terms of numbers among all representatives of new religious associations of a destructive nature that use mind control of their members. It arose in the 80s of the 19th century thanks to the efforts of the self-taught American preacher Charles Russell. Calling themselves Christians, the Jehovah's Witnesses completely distorted all the main points of Christian teaching. They, like the once heretical Arians, deny the divinity of the Savior, and therefore the Trinity of God. The doctrine of the Trinity is considered a “satanic” and “pagan fabrication.” For Jehovah's Witnesses, Christ is just the perfect, highest creation of God, which they identify with the Archangel Michael. To substantiate this point of view, followers of the community constantly appeal to the name “Son of Man,” ignoring or interpreting in their own way all the quotations of the Holy Scriptures that speak of Christ as God. All their misconceptions regarding the Savior are related to the fact that they do not recognize two natures in Him: Divine and human. Followers of the community dispute the physical Resurrection of Christ. The Holy Spirit, according to the ideas of Jehovah's Witnesses, is just the invisible force of the Creator, prompting his servants to fulfill the will of God, but not the Third Person of the Holy Trinity. They do not believe in the posthumous existence of the human soul. Jehovah's Witnesses do not recognize the baptism of children. The main point in the teaching of the witnesses, on which, in fact, their entire structure is based, is the question of the Second Coming of Christ and the thousand-year kingdom on earth. To prove their false teaching, the Jehovah's Witnesses created their own Bible, the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures, which completely distorts the Hebrew and Greek texts.
When communicating with adherents of this sect, a logical question always arises: why are people who consider themselves Christians called Jehovah's Witnesses? They completely reject the well-known and indisputable fact that their very name arose as a result of the scandal and schism in the Watch Tower Society in 1931, and then, as they say, in hindsight, Rutherford justified it with a biblical quotation from the book of the prophet Isaiah (43: 10–12), which has nothing to do with Christians. From this point on, the doctrines of the witnesses began to increasingly shift away from the primary importance of Christ towards the word “Jehovah”. However, the word “Jehovah” is an artificially created name of God, one of the inauthentic variants of the pronunciation of the name of God Yahweh, established as a result of the fear of the Jews to violate the third commandment of the Decalogue. It is formed by merging the Old Testament unreadable Tetragrammaton and vowels from the word “Adonai” (“Lord”). The Hebrew idiom for the name Jehovah is translated as “He who is.” God gave this name of His so that people would have a true understanding of the Being of God, but this is not His only name mentioned in the Holy Scriptures. The most interesting thing is that Christ nowhere calls God Jehovah, although he clearly testifies to His disciples: “I have revealed Your name to men” (John 17:6). If, following the logic of the Watchtower adherents, the only name of God is Jehovah, then why doesn’t the Savior Himself speak about this? Addressing God as “Father,” He also commands others: “Pray like this: Our Father who art in heaven...” (Matthew 6:9). So, whose witnesses are the “Christian” Jehovah’s Witnesses is not clear.
Throughout the history of their existence, Jehovah's Witnesses have been accompanied by various international scandals, which they do not like to remember and from which they carefully dissociate themselves. The most famous are the “Declaration of Facts” adopted at the Berlin Congress in 1933 and the letter to Hitler. However, despite the assurances of the then leadership of the Watchtower that the community approved and emphasized the highest ideals held by the national government of the Reich, the documents and the flirtations of witnesses with the Nazis did not help them at all, but only tarnished their reputation forever and intensified persecution. Another scandal was associated with the entry of Jehovah's Witnesses as a non-governmental organization into the UN, which they demonized for many years and declared “a monster from the book of Revelation.” It was only after the exposure of English journalists that the associated status of the Watchtower Society with the UN was urgently revoked.
Many Watchtower Society publications claim: “Jehovah’s servants... are the happiest people on earth.” But one can hardly be happy in the world of absurd, deceitful and dangerous illusions that this organization creates for its adherents. Hence the question: do the true God need such servants?

Jehovah's Witnesses history and activities of the religious organization
This religious organization was founded in the second half of the 19th century. Interestingly, in 2009 its population exceeded 7 million people. This society dates back to 1870 in the Bible Students, which were formed by Charles Russell in the USA.
This movement later modernized into the Watchtower Society. After Russell dies, he is replaced by J. Rutherford, who replaces the democratic regime of society with a theocratic one, which is why many participants began to break away from the Watchtower.
In 1931, Rutterford renamed the Tower to Jehovah's Witnesses. The name is based on the divine name - Jehovah, and the witness, according to the members of the association, is a person who preaches the beliefs of the movement.
Interestingly, this society is now found in 239 countries of the world.
Jehovah's Witnesses: religion or sect?
There is a lot of debate on the topic: which group should Jehovah's Witnesses belong to? Some people claim that this organization is a sect, and therefore it is banned in many countries, while others claim that it is a religious movement.
A. Dvorkin, who studies religious sectarianism, argues that this group is pseudo-Christians, forming a sect with a totalitarian regime. In his writings, he draws attention to some contradictions in the foundations of this sect, one of which is the financing of the clergy.
In one source they advocate the refusal of the clergy to receive material support, and in another they advocate the maintenance of missionaries at public expense. Members of this religious group reject the cross as an attribute of Faith, explaining this by the fact that Jesus dies on a stake.
They also prohibit blood transfusions, as they are convinced that this action denies the healing power of the Faith. They explain their avoidance of military service by their reluctance to shed blood.
Some Russian religious scholars have a positive opinion about this society, since some information about them is biased. Scientists do not believe that members of society pose any threat, so they are ordinary citizens.
In this video you can learn more about Jehovah's Witnesses from the lips of a former believer who was a member of a religious organization.
Jehovah's Witnesses: difference from Orthodoxy
Jehovah's Witnesses recognize Christ, but they do not consider him the God-man, but a perfect man who was created before Adam and fulfilled the will of Jehovah.
Also, members of this society reject the trinity of God, the cross, an attribute of Faith, as well as the immortality of the soul.
Jehovah's Witnesses claim that the Kingdom of Heaven began in 1914, from which time Jesus reigned to ensure that God's original purposes could be realized on Earth.
Jehovah's Witnesses are confident that Jesus was the Archangel Michael before his first coming. Members of the society claim that only 144,000 devotees of the Faith will go to heaven and subsequently reign with Christ.
Members of the group are taught that human salvation depends on the direct intervention of Jesus Christ, and salvation is impossible without death and rebirth in the Kingdom under the authority of Jesus.
Jehovah's Witnesses are confident that Satan and his demons descended to Earth in 1914 to fulfill the divine will - to plunge people into the “Day of Judgment.” Since the devil's influence is widespread, Jehovah's Witnesses consider everyone who refuses to join their ranks to be a "screw in Satan's atrocities."
Jehovah's Witnesses are often placed on the other side of the Orthodox Church, where fees are charged for candles and commemorations. Jehovah's Witnesses claim that they do not collect material funds by distributing their literature for free. It is interesting that the printing of these products is carried out at the expense of ordinary members of the sect, who subsequently distribute them to passers-by. Jehovah's Witnesses observe many prohibitions:
- refusal to participate in the political life of the country;
- refusal from military service (interestingly, many young men who were members of this sect were exempted from service due to nervousness);
- a ban on celebrating Orthodox and Soviet holidays, as well as birthdays;
- disapproval of higher education;
- strict ban on blood transfusions.
Jehovah's Witnesses: why are they dangerous?
Many people are convinced that Jehovah's Witnesses only distribute religious literature, attracting new members to their ranks. However, it is not. Their ideology is based on the idea that the true state is exclusively the kingdom of Jehovah.
And the control center of this state is located in Brooklyn, one of the cities of America. The kingdom is based on a theocratic regime, and also provides the opportunity to pursue the self-interest of its subjects in unlimited ways.
Among these methods are often chosen:
- lie;
- family split;
- betrayal;
- destruction of layers of society, Christianity, and the political system.
It is worth considering that if a person refuses to become a member of a group, he becomes its enemy.
Therefore, it is important to know how to protect yourself from the psychological influence of members of this sect. To protect yourself from the undesirable consequences of interacting with this religious entity, you must follow several recommendations:
- do not enter into dialogue with their representatives;
- if they return again, you can file a police report;
- carefully interview your closest neighbors about the conversations that the sectarians had with them.
This information usually helps the police investigation.
It is interesting that the fruits of the activity of this movement is an increase in the number of neuroses and psychoses among members of the sect compared to the average level by 17 times.
Moreover, American scientists argue that in reality this figure will be even higher, since Jehovah's Witnesses rarely go to psychiatrists, since contacting them is not welcome.
Who are the Old Believers: traditions and rituals.

How Orthodoxy saved me from Jehovah's Witnesses
My mother was walking with me as a little girl, and a nice girl approached her at the post office with a color magazine made in America. His religiosity was veiled by articles about nature and scientific discoveries. The girl also suggested a “Bible study” right in our home. The father then said the golden phrase to the mother: “It’s a pity that they are not Orthodox,” but he succumbed to charm.
Various strangers began to come to us. They were all smiling and friendly. The winning factor was the “missionaries” - married couples mainly from Poland. Well dressed, happy, already in their cars, they were sent to Russia after the Iron Curtain was lifted. They skillfully explained their well-being not by the country in which they lived, but by the “blessing of Jehovah.”
Gradually they began to conduct a “study” with me using a cute book with illustrations. I learned to read the Bible at the age of 4; I recited many chapters or passages, such as the one about love (1 Corinthians) by heart, freely.
At the same time, Birthdays, New Year, March 8 for mom and February 23 for dad neatly disappeared from our lives (and he built BAM). I was little and don’t remember this difference, but I will never have a childhood with New Year’s miracles, the tooth fairy, and letters to Santa Claus. I wish I could give all this to my future children.
From the age of 5, my parents and other Witnesses took me with them to preach: at any time of the day or year, we walked through the entrances - two adults and I with “tracts.” At 8 I was baptized and became a “sister.” I didn’t go to a regular school, didn’t go to clubs, didn’t communicate with other children - so as to “be out of this world.” My father threw out the TV because... missionaries said that this was the “eye of Satan.” Free time was spent distributing magazines on the streets, in shops, and in apartments.
When I was 14, my mother became very ill. We spent 3 months with her in intensive care. But because the sect forbade her to have a blood transfusion, we lost a lot of time and money that could have been spent on her rehabilitation. As a result, my mother became a wheelchair user and completely blind – she can’t even distinguish light from dark. As you understand, soon after discharge we were left alone. Yes, the “meeting” did not leave us without control, but there was practically no real help. My father worked three times more, I left school for a year (between the 7th and 8th grades), and was with her constantly to help her get used to the new life. I finished school in the evening, torn between housework, mother, study and “service”. Despite everything, I was obliged to go from house to house at least 15 hours a month and attend two-hour meetings 3 times a week.
The path of liberation lasted 10 years.
Witnesses tend to control every area of a parishioner’s life, let alone their personal life. We were literally dictated who to marry. I got married at 22, he was recommended by the elders of the community and had several very prestigious ranks for his age. After 3 years of family life, it turned out that he was cheating on me... with his best friend, and this was confirmed by correspondence, photographs... Yes, yes, he turned out to be gay, but no one believed me, although messages from his friends came even when he spoke with pious speeches on stage. Among the Witnesses, the reason for divorce can only be proven adultery, but the husband did not confess, and due to my youth, I did not save screenshots and could not prove what I saw.
“By the age of 25, I found myself twice divorced and with a completely destroyed faith in God.”
Thank God, I still managed to get a divorce and even get married again, to a more mature man, 11 years older than me and already with a daughter. There were also recommendations from older men, “based on the Bible” - and he turned out to be a drunkard, a rapist and a traitor. 2 months after the wedding, he had a breakdown - he almost strangled me, almost drowned me - the elders again did not protect me. This was the second divorce. By the age of 25, I found myself twice divorced and with my faith in God completely destroyed.
During this second marriage, I crossed paths with an old acquaintance from “meetings.” Olga Sviridenko (she has already given interviews more than once about her exit from the sect) in parallel with me conducted an investigation into the dogmas of the Witnesses, and we both came to the conclusion that this is a totalitarian, anti-Christian sect. The solution was immediate - more than enough information and feelings had accumulated to be confident in our choice.
Why Orthodoxy?
Yes, perhaps no one gives you detailed answers to all your questions, but no one stops you from looking for information, reading, and forming your own opinion. And if you come to church with this opinion, then no one will stand as a wall to prevent you, such a bad person, from being allowed into the House of God. Unlike the sects that have filled Russia, Orthodoxy understands that it is seeking, inquisitive, and intelligent people who go to church.
In the church no one violates my freedom, in the church I have never encountered rudeness, in the church everything is not dictatorial, but gently recommendatory. You don’t have to come to the “first song”, you can come at any time and calm down, pray, admire as much as you need for peace of mind. I like to come to cathedrals, wearing an expensive dress made from Pavloposad shawls, expensive jewelry, heels and a fur coat... At the same time, I can go to church after work, tired, in tears - they will only be glad to see me and tactfully step aside.
The icon “The Tsaritsa” helps me the most – she fulfills every request so willingly and beautifully. And since I acquired the icon of Natalia of Nicomedia, everything in my life began to improve. At first I was afraid that she was a martyr - lest I share her fate. But then I realized that the saints’ task is precisely to help us avoid their torment, they have already taken upon themselves all the suffering and with great love there, at the Throne of God, they ask for us and our happiness.
Now I live freely. I work as a governess - and no one will contradict me that I wear floor-length dresses; I do horse riding, I moved to a private house, I’m getting a higher medical education, I hope to become a pediatric surgeon (but education is prohibited among the Witnesses, they even accept school education with a grain of salt), I got a blue-eyed husky. Now I have real friends - not fanatical “pioneers”, but worthy, wise women.
If my biography is read by someone who is afraid to leave the ranks of the “organization” or any other sect hiding behind the Holy Scriptures, send your questions, I can explain the historical falsity of their teachings, the ins and outs of their founders, the behind-the-scenes games of higher ranks, taking into account names, extracts and dates.
Become brave, become free, become happy.
