Few have secondary education.īoth think they have the ultimate truth and live better lives because of it. Because of their faith in the Jehovah's upcoming "new system," JWs rarely invest time or money into anything long-term.
Mormons like being worldly and in the spotlight. JWs not so much, (they are a publishing company of usually-cheap books and tracts). Mormons are meticulous about record keeping and tracking people down with JWs it's easier to disappear from the society/congregation. In either case, it's tough for any family members to leave without repercussions. JW's have shunning as overt policy, mormons succeed at it more covertly. JWs take their brand of bible interpretation and application to extreme (no revelation) mormons do whatever claiming divine guidance. Both teach that angels visited their prophets in order to restore the true religion and that their prophets are closely related to the means of salvation. Both teach that the Bible is corrupt yet the Bible predicts their respective prophets. Top comments:Īs organizations and how they both have top-down structures, they are remarkably and eerily similar.though the titles/areas have different names.īoth adamantly claim to be Christians, though both are far from the mainstream. There are many similarities between Mormonism and Islam. Church tradition, the sayings of popes and Cardinals are on equal footing and have equal authority with the scripture which is where all the crazy. And, just like I said about Mormons and Jehovahs Witnesses, this organization also equates other things with scripture. If you are interested, please contact me.I could talk a while about this. Jehovahs Witnesses and Mormons both require good works to enter heaven. I'm sure you'll enjoy reading it and drawing parallels with your own Mormon experiences. I've heard JW is also a cult and that it's very similar to Mormonism. Someone I followed on a social media site is an ex-JWwho's also PIMO. It has received excellent reviews since its publication. Post Body: I'm an ex mormon who's PIMO (will officially resign once I graduate and move out), have doubted my beliefs for years and only want out even more after finding out Mormonism is a cult. The novel, which is fiction, is based on true events. It tells the story of a young woman who grew up in a Jehovah's Witness family and experiences some difficulties in her marriage. My experience and knowledge of the Jehovah's Witnesses led me to write a novel that was published in French in 2020 and has just been translated into English. The control of the elders and leaders, the impossibility of living a normal life, of leaving the group without suffering, the ostracism, the status of women, everything is similar in the two movements. I found her story very interesting and very similar to that of the Jehovah's Witnesses, a religious group to which I belonged from birth until I was 50. She talked about the similarities between the Christian denomination and Scientology, claiming criticism. In it, 17 people tell the story of how they escaped from the clutches of highly controlling religious organisations. Reminis new season, unlike before, explored the Jehovahs Witnesses in a two-hour special. Jehovah Witnesses and Mormons are both faiths. I knew the Mormons by name, I'd met some of them preaching in the streets back home, but I didn't know anything about their beliefs until two years ago when I translated a book called Fear to Freedom by author Jack Grey from English into French. Other denominations of Christianity include Protestantism, Catholicism, and Orthodoxy.
