Quite often, when someone is exposed; Name-calling provides a false sense of security; a false sense of validity. It's really a trademark of little children; when they say: "My daddy is stronger than your daddy."
For example: Jehovah's Witnesses often expose the pagan origins of so many of mainstream religions customs and holidays. They can't deny those origins - - so what do they have left, but to throw out 'labels'. It makes them feel better.
Testigos de Jehova derives from Portugal and it means "witness of Jehova". Jehovah's Witnesses is a religion whose beliefs are distinct from mainstream Christianity.
Jehovah's Witnesses believe in God. It is a monotheistic religion and a branch of Christianity. They believe that Jesus was the Son of God, for example.
The Witnesses are technically a sect of Christianity, as are almost all groups currently referred to as 'Christian'.
You have been mis-informed as Jehovah witnesses do not have pegan origins. They are a branch of Christianity.
We believe similar things to mainstream Christans exept things like we will be born again and things like that.we also dont make you pay you can just give contrubutions and we believe in the paradise where we will be ressurected Rev 21 4; Jehovahs Witnesses are a branch of Christianity
No. I don't really see it as a religion - it is more like a branch (or church, or denomination, or sect) of a larger religion, namely, Christianity. Which religions are the largest of course depends how you classify them - for example, if you classify Christianity as a single religion, or each of the Christian denominations as a separate religion - or some of them. Christianity (as a group that includes Jehova's Witnesses) is the largest religion worldwide, followed by Islam. It seems that the third and fourth places are Hinduism and Buddhism.
Yes they are a type of denomination from Christianity, just like Catholics or Protestants
Jehovah's witnesses don't have flag but they have a logo.
Both Mormonism and Jehovah's Witnesses are Christian-based religions that emerged in the United States during the 19th century. They both believe in the Bible as a sacred text and emphasize the importance of spreading their faith through missionary work. Additionally, both religions have distinct beliefs that set them apart from mainstream Christianity, such as the rejection of the doctrine of the Trinity.
yes, Jehovah Witnesses do get baptized
Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate holidays that they believe do not fit true Christianity. These include Christmas, Easter, and even birthdays. The Jehovah's Witnesses believe that Christ did not command his birth - or any birth - to be celebrated; he just wanted his death to be remembered.
I have never heard of black Christianity and white Christianity, is there a such a thing? To my understanding... There's Orthodox, Catholic, Protestant, and a few fringe groups such as Jehovah's Witnesses & the such.
