The Jehovah’s Witnesses is a pseudo-Christian religion started by Charles Taze Russell in 1872. It is headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, where it houses a massive publishing house that prints and distributes its literature via door-to-door evangelism work. There are more than 4 million Jehovah’s Witnesses worldwide.

It is a non-Christian religion since it denies essential Christian doctrines such as the Trinity, the deity of Christ, Jesus’ physical resurrection, and justification by grace through faith.

Following is a list of some of its teachings:

• There is no Trinity (Let God be True, pp. 100-101, Make Sure of All Things, p. 386)
• The Holy Spirit is God’s impersonal active force (The Watchtower, June 1, 1952, p. 24)
• Their church is the self-proclaimed prophet of God (The Watchtower, April 1, 1972, p. 197)
• They claim to be the only channel of God’s truth (The Watchtower, Feb. 15, 1981, p. 19)
• Jesus was Michael the archangel who became a man (The Watchtower, May 15, 1963, p. 307, The New World, 284)
• Jesus was only a perfect man, not God in flesh (Reasoning from the Scriptures, 1985, p. 306)
• Jesus did not rise from the dead in his physical body (Awake! July 22, 1973, p. 4)
• Only their church members will be saved (The Watchtower, Feb. 15, 1979, p. 30)
• Good works are necessary for salvation (Studies in the Scriptures, Vol. 1, pp. 150, 152)
