Jehovah's Witnesses share Bible's view on matters. The same is true concerning Jesus Christ. Matthhew 16:16, 17 says:

"And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. "

The Bible clearly shows that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, not God himself. For God's name is Jehovah. Jehovah God is another person, even though Jesus and Jehovah are in union.

Another answerJehovah's Witnesses do not believe in the divinity of Christ. And they reject his death on the Cross (replacing it, against all Biblical, historical and archaeological evidence, with a 'torture stake'), a denial of his bodily resurrection and even go so far as to declare he and Satan (Lucifer) are brothers:

"In the beginning, God had two sons, that were named Word and Lucifer. Though Lucifer was not as favored as the Word was, he was defined with the Word as the morning star (Deliberation- freedom, Watchtower Soc, p. 26, 33 - published early in the 20th century, around 1912).
