Jehovah Witnesses take each other as a tight knit global family united by a common cause. Although they agree with some of the core doctrines of the early church, there are divergent views on the interpretation of certain parts of the Bible by the sect.

Here are 5 Teachings of the JW that are Different from Consensus Christian Beliefs -

1) Resurrection Teachings

The Witnesses believe that there will be a resurrection. However, they differ on how it will occur. According to them, Jehovah will raise the “righteous” and “unrighteous” on the Day of Judgment but will leave the evil ones to perish forever.

2) Lack of belief in the Trinity Doctrine.

The JW don't subscribe to the Trinity Gospel as peddled by some Christian groups.

For them, there is only Jehovah.

3) Do not believe that Salvation can be earned

Salvation can only be gotten by the grace of God.

4) ) Lack of Belief in Hell

For them, a loving God can't possibly roast his children in hell forever. They believe it is unlike God.

5) Earth is Eternal Home of Man

They also don't subscribe to the popularly held notion of a kingdom in heaven. For them, earth is man's eternal home. It will be made a paradise after the final resurrection.

1) Resurrection Teachings
The Witnesses believe that there will be a resurrection. However, they differ on how it will occur. According to them, Jehovah will raise the “righteous” and “unrighteous” on the Day of Judgment but will leave the evil ones to perish forever.
The unrighteous are people “who failed to meet God’s standards but did not have the opportunity to learn and follow them.”
2) Lack of belief in the Trinity Doctrine.
3) Do not believe that Salvation can be earned
From the group’s teachings, they don’t think that man can actually earn his salvation. They think it can only be by the grace of God.
4) Lack of Belief in Hell
For them, hell is uncharacteristic of the person of God. They do not think a loving father will send His children to burn in hell forever. According to them, those who committed irredeemable offences while alive will not be raised up by God at the appointed time.
5) Finally, they hold the view that earth is the eternal home of man. According to them, the people raised by God will inherit the earth and live everlasting life in an “earthly paradise”.

All these denominations or religions must have built heavens for their people.

How can they go to the same so called heaven when different denominations or religions preach different things.

The truth is that
1) There is holy spirit manifested in several ways including speaking in tongues.seeing vision .revelations etc.
I am saying this bodly because I have experienced it.
2)As a Christian we believe by faith so I believe there is heaven and hell however,the nature of heaven and hell I can't authoritatively say.as I just believe it by faith as written in the bible.

Stop talking trash.
Do you know how the trinity came about.
A union of 77 bishops coined that thing.
Don't be fooled.

Ignorance is not bliss. Read up on the "Nicene creed" where they were debating through trial and error who what God/Jesus/holy spirit are. The most Influential bishops won the debate.

Which christian denomination believes salvation can be earned?

On this point, the bible is very explicit: "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith. Not by works, lest no man can boast"

What i meant is that they complain of everything, yet they are the one benefiting from everything. They will say Nigeria is a secular nation yet disturbing everyone with their preach (not on Nairaland), they will call every government decision islamization, yet they are favored by the way of governance.
And many more of their hypocritical actions
