Answer 2

The special revelation from God which we believe in is the Holy Bible, in its entirety.More Specific AnswerI am assuming that you are referring to a "special revelation" in the sense of one person receiving messages from God, like the claim made by Joseph Smith, founder of the Mormons. If I am wrong in that assumption, I apologize.

The only "special revelation" that we believe in is the Bible itself. We believe that "all scripture is inspired of God and beneficial," as 2 Timothy 3:16 says.

Jesus promised at John 14:26 to send a "helper" to teach us and help us in our understanding of spiritual matters. That helper is God's holy spirit - or his active force - that operates upon each one of us to open our eyes to spiritual understandings.

This does not constitute a special revelation in the sense of something exclusive upon just a certain individual, but is a provision of God, open to all who earnestly seek him, are humble, honest and spiritually hungry. (2 Chronicles 16:9; Matthew 5:3)

We believe that God has revealed himself and his purposes in the Bible, and that Bible prophecies such as Matthew chapter 24, Luke chapter 21, and 2 Timothy 3:1-5 are now being fullfilled, and that soon other prophecies, such as those in Revelation 21:3,4, Psalms 37:10,11,29, and Isaiah 33:24 will soon be fullilled.

At Revelation 22:17 we read that God's holy spirit (the helper) invites anyone who wishes to learn and "take life's water free." For more information about our beliefs, you can visit http://watchtower.org/e/beliefs_and_activities.htm

Answer 3

Well, one main belief we believe is that there is one God and his name is Jehovah. His name is shown at Psalms 83:18, Exodus 6:3 and other scriptures in the King James Version and other Bible versions. We believe that Jesus is our savior and died for us. We believe that when we die we will be resurrected and live on the earth which will be a paradise. Psalms 37:10,11, 29.

Answer 4

Jehovah the God of the Old Testament also called Yahweh.

Answer 5

Psalms chapter 83 verse 18 is one of the basic scriptures every Jehovah's Witness base their god on.
