Jehovah's Witnesses Report
Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that they should accept the entire Bible but they also see that parts of the Bible were written in figurative or symbolic language and are not to be taken so literally. They also belive that Jesus is the Savior and Son of God, but not a part of the trinity so Jesus is not their almighty God. Unlike Christians, they see Christ as a thing that lives in spirit rather than in believers.
Some things that I learned about Jehovah’s Witnesses is that, in their religion Jesus actually started ruling God’s kingdom in Heaven on October 1st 1914. On this exact date the one mile oval Bowie Race Track was opened for horse racing in Maryland. I also learned that only a select few Witnesses go to Heaven, other Witnesses enjoy

    One of my witnessing encounters was last week and it involved a clerk at a retail store. I was walking through the store to find the items I needed. I met Regina, a store clerk and I proceeded to communicate with her concerning items in the store and her day. She replied that she was having a bad week due to some unfortunate set of circumstances. I listened and we talked for a while as she restocked items in the store. She was very depressed about the way things were happening in her life. Which led me to ask Regina if she had any kind of spiritual beliefs? Regina communicated with me that she did not believe that there is a God or is not a God. Therefore, I ask Regina to read some scriptures out loud and she read Romans 3:23 and it said: 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; then I asked her does this say to you. She replied that everyone has done something wrong at some point in time in his or her life. At first, she thought that no one else has made as many mistakes as she did. She was very receptive in reading and sharing her thoughts on the scriptures I asked her to read. The next scripture was Romans 6:23 it says: 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord; then I asked her what does this say to you? She responded by saying sin leads to death but, God gives me life through Jesus. I replied yes and because sin can send a person to hell. God allows us another chance through his son Jesus and he wants a relationship with each one of us.…

    It was in the middle of the afternoon and the local school had come up to the Jay Mountain Church for a field trip. The church had caught on fire during their trip. Two boys hopped out of a T-Bird and rushed over. They tapped a man’s shoulder, asking what was going on. Then they suddenly bolted into the church, breaking the front window. After interviewing the man that they had talked to, he said and quote, “ We overheard someone yelling in the back of the church and those brave kids ran in to save them.” Everyone ran back to the back of the church. Suddenly, the kid with the short, blonde hair lowered all of the kids down and jumped out. The other kid that was in the T-Bird slapped his back because there was fire on the back of his jacket.…

    When religious believe goes against modern medicine to the point that influenced the doctors into finding other methods to help their patients, with a practice called Bloodless medicine. Jehovah’s Witnesses do not accept blood transfusions. Base of an interpretation of the scripture. That believe is one of the doctrines for which Jehovah’s Witnesses are known.
