Jehovah's Witnesses do not change what The Bible says as their bible is a direct translation from the oldest and most reliable scrolls that have been found. Their bible has been proven to be a very reliable translation by various members of different sources. However if you do want to know what is in their bible or what has changed I am sure they will be happy to discuss it with you next time you see a Jehovah's witness.

I recommend visiting the official website of Jehovah's Witnesses or contacting their local branch for the most current and accurate information on Kingdom Hall locations in New Mexico.
What is the word to let Jehovahs you have left the religion?
Not quite sure what the question means. Jehovah is God. If you have dedicated your life to Jehovah, you'd have to speak with Him, and tell him that you no longer will lead a dedicated life. But he will hold you to your dedication. He has no provision for 'UN-" dedicating yourself from Him. He is God. But if you wish to leave Jehovah's Witnesses - - you can just up-and-leave. No one will stop you. If on the other hand you commit a serious Bible offense; and if you refuse to change; then Jehovah's Witnesses will 'disfellowship' you from their fellowship. But you can always apply for 'reinstatement' after you have stopped the Bible offence.
Why are Jehovah's Witnesses called Jehovah's Witnesses?
We were very careful to choose the name by which we would be called. We gave much thought to it.There are 2 parts to our name, which really explains itself. (Part of this explanation is an English lesson.)1) Jehovah's ---You will notice the apostrophe 's'. This means: 'Belonging to'. We belong to Jehovah God, the Almighty, the Creator of the whole Universe and everything in it.Before we get baptized, we make a personal DEDICATION to Jehovah God in prayer. We dedicate ourselves to Him, to do His 'will' (whatever that will may be.) Jehovah's 'will' changes over the years. Since we now belong to Jehovah, that means we will change as his requirements change. (Example: Noah was required to build an ark for salvation. Today that is NOT a requirement anymore for salvation. God's will changed.)Point 1 also means: We do NOT belong to an organization.We NEVER dedicated ourselves to an organization. We do not even pledge our alliegance to any government on earth.2) Witnesses ---You will notice that this is in the 'plural' form. This means 'more than 1'.This all means that we 'witness' or 'speak' about Jehovah God, and his purposes for mankind.It may surprise many people, that Jehovah's Witnesses are really MORE THAN CHRISTIAN. Yes, we are 'Christian' -- but we are beyond that; we are MORE THAN that. (Explanation: Noah, Abraham, Moses, Isaiah, etc were NOT Christians. Christ had not arrived. They were MORE THAN Christian. They too were Witnesses of Jehovah God. -- Even Christ Jesus was a Witness of Jehovah God. You will find this in Revelation.)Interestingly: The whole world agrees that we indeed ARE Jehovah's Witnesses. That designation was available to anyone before 1931. But no one wanted that label. To this day many despise the word 'Jehovah'. It makes their stomach's crawl. They call us that. Even all the so-called Christians call us that. When we arrive at their doors they say: "Jehovah's Witnesses? --- We're not interested." They acknowledge and recognize that only WE are Jehovah's name people. This will explain the pride we have in being the only ones on earth, recognized as what we really are: Jehovah God's personal Witnesses. It couldn't get much better than that.

Why don't Jehovah's witnesses ask their own questions at their meetings - answers only from Non-Jehovah's Witnesses please?
Non-Witnesses of Jehovah God wouldn't know the answer to that question. They are not members of the congregation; and so they do not make decisions regarding how our meetings are conducted. Only a Witness of Jehovah God could answer the question. (Sorry, it's just the way it is. Following are the reasons again.)Reasons are:1) Our meetings are in the form of a PROGRAM. The topic is scheduled in advance; so that all can do the research. If, per chance they have a question; and since the meetings don't allow for a Q & A free-for-all; we do our asking of questions in advance. Then when we come to meetings; -- all our meetings around the globe show a UNITED front, which we in fact are, anyway.2) Jehovah's Witnesses already know all the answers to any questions. There is no inner need for us to attempt to CHANGE the SCHEDULED PROGRAM TOPIC.3) At our meetings, we practice 'ANSWERING Questions' not 'ASKING' them. Anyone is free to answer in their own words. If, per chance there is a new-comer in our midst, we do not receive answers from them as yet. First they need to be studied with. Again, we like all our meetings to be UNITED around the globe. NO Free-for-all.That's about as simple an answer as can be.
