Jehovah Witness And The Trinity Doctrine

Decent Essays
People are entitle to their thoughts and belief on religion, including Jehovah Witness. However, the truth of God’s word is the only things that will stand in the eternal heaven. God is not in the business of partiality of who He is. God is God, the maker of heaven and earth. Jehovah Witness does not recognize the Trinity doctrine because of their interpretation of Scripture. True worshippers will take God at His word, (John 10:22-30, EVS) and lived by faith. There is no need to reinvent the wheel concerning God’s word, the belief is in the believer (Matt. 5:18, EVS). Overall, the practice of any religion is showing one’s acceptance and love for God and His Son, Jesus Christ.

    Making a change in the world for the health care provided to Jehovah’s Witnesses didn’t become so personal until recently. My cousin who is a Jehovah’s Witness as well passed away last month after being put on the waiting list for liver transplant. She got sick two weeks before, but really didn’t think anything of it until she started having sharp stomach pain and was having trouble walking. She and her husband went to the hospital that night, there they tried to give her a blood transfusion, but since we do not accept blood as Jehovah’s Witnesses she refused to take it. The hospital they were at in Austin couldn’t assist her any further so they transferred her to the hospital down here in Katy where things started to take a turn for the worse.…

    The freedom of belief and religion for Jehovah’s Witnesses is not being enforced in certain countries. Many Witnesses are thrown in jail, killed, and persecuted for their religious beliefs in different countries. The right to freedom of belief and religion applies to everyone from every religion so it is not fair to deprive Witnesses from that right. There is still a chance to save many innocent Witnesses lives and stop them from being killed. It is a violation of the human rights to put someone to death without a fair trial by jury.…

An adult Jehovah's Witness who willingly accepts a blood transfusion is considered to be committing a sin and might forfeit his or her eternal life. Many non-Witness sources imply that the WTS teaches that all who have had a transfusion (even if given against their will or at an age or situation when they cannot give informed consent) will automatically lose their promise of eternal life.
