Do jehovahs witness believe in birth control?

Answer 1

If they so desire. The Awake magazine, printed by Jehovah's Witnesses, of 22nd February 1993 says

''Does the Bible condemn birth control? No, it does not. The choice is left with the couple. If a married couple decides to practice birth control, their choice of contraceptives is a personal matter. However, the method of birth control a Christian couple chooses should be governed by a respect for the sanctity of life. Since the Bible indicates that a person's life begins at conception, Christians would avoid contraceptive methods that abort, or end the life of, the developing child.''

Answer 2

The use of most forms of Birth Control are not forbidden. Birth control to prevent pregnancies is a personal choice.

"Morning after" type of birth control is not considered acceptable or compatible with guidelines in The Bible.

Jehovah's Witnesses do believe that anything that intentionally kills an unborn child is murder.

Answer 3

Married Jehovah's Witnesses each make a personal decision whether to use non-abortive birth control such as condoms. Also, Jehovah's Witnesses view life as sacred and therefore do not use birth control after conception such as the morning-after pill believing that life begins at conception.
