The Jehovah's Witness faith encourages many interesting ideologies, such as not voting and not partaking in the military. Learn, from the son of a follower, the impacts the Jehovah's Witness community has made.

"Do not be loving either the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him; because everything in the world - the desire of the flesh and the desire of the eyes and the showy display of one's means of life - does not originate with the Father, but originates with the world. Furthermore, the world is passing away and so is its desire, but he that does the will of God remains forever"
1John 2:15-17

Thank you for this timely video...I was just trying to reason with a anti-witness, about his freedom of speech and how JW's paid the price for him to speak so rudely to me....May Jehovah bless you

[Robsbrwneyedgrl]

Thank you so much for posting all these videos about the witnesses. There are so many misunderstandings reguarding the Witnesses, maybe after seeing these videos a few of those misunderstandings will be cleared up.

[LKathyRunkle]

Very accurate.

[Copsweet]

@OurGr8God It's largely because we preach the good news of Jehovah Gods kingdom,which Jesus Christ will rule. We call or pray to Jehovah through Jesus because that's how Jesus instructed his followers to do so. "No-one comes to the Father except through me" Tnx

[OurGr8God]

@Copsweet - we will be hated on account of Jesus name? How can YOU be hated on account of Jesus' name if YOU don't call on his name like the 1st century Christians believers did? That makes no sense! Jehovah's Witnesses call on Jehovah's name. And although you might call TO Jehovah IN or THROUGH Jesus name, you're still calling TO Jehovah NOT TO Jesus. So how can Jehovah's Witnesses be hated on account of Jesus' name?

Please read Acts chapter 9 and see for yourselves. God Bless You!

thankyou Joel so much.. and who ever posted this.. it is the truth! :')

[timo092601]

@kellylittleton I'd like to see the HISTORICAL record of the first christians as reported by secular historians of the time to show that Jesus' early followers also did not get involved in the political system of the world of their time either!!

[Copsweet]

Well presented information,I very much like this guys presentation style. But please don't forget Brothers,we will be hated on account of Jesus name,don't expect to be "accepted" in satans world,no matter how well we are portrayed in the media. Stay close to Jehovah through prayer and study,continue declaring his name,and we will have success! Agape united brothers,fight hard to the end.

[monstered66]

Brothers!!!! be careful there are many Apostates on youtube

[victoriaisntsosecret]

I am going to give a huge "Yay!" For this video I am so happy that finally there is someone who knows TRUE things about Jehovah's Witnesses. It brings me joy! I can't wait for the district convention next month. What about you guys? :)

[Zumbatabita]

As a Witness I appreciate this post. It is unbias and truthful. Thank you.

vets and those who did for the usa paid the price for my freedoms mainly speech
