The question is incomplete. Are JW beliefs any different today than what other time? Five years ago, a decade ago, five decades ago? "Beliefs" are generally the same as they have always been. There has been a further understanding of the scriptures in the past fifty years, just as there have been medical and scientific discoveries in the same timeframe. We continue to examine the scriptures daily, but our beliefs have not changed any many ways. For an in-depth examination into what Jehovah's Witnesses believe, please, visit the official website at the following URL: http://www.jw-media.org/beliefs/index.htm. This is an excellent source for anyone who may have questions of this nature.

Why does the Bible need an interpreter to be fully understood by readers today?

OpinionOne reason that some prefer to interpret the Bible for readers, is that they can give their own interpretation to various passages, to influence the beliefs of the faithful. Thus, a Catholic interpretation may be very different from that of an Episcopalian interpretation, and both could be different from that of a Jehovah's Witness or a Morman. When someone explains a passage just as it would be read without interpretation, that person is often heavily criticised as interfering in theology. For this reason, some say that the Bible should not be read at all by those without faith.

What are the current issues of Jehovah Witnesses?

By current issues if you are referring to what non-witness topics are currently in the public eye, the fact is Jehovah's Witnesses by way of their neutral stand regarding politics and the doctrinal separation they maintain with other religions remain somewhat out of the limelight regarding the popular "issues" of today. If by "current issues" you are referring to what is of interest to Jehovah's Witnesses themselves, their point of focus has remained constant in that they concentrate on preaching the gospel and publishing the good news from the bible.
