Five key issues that distinguish Jehovah's Witness Christians from other Christians are:
1. Jehovah's Witnesses do not believe in the Trinity (God in three persons). God, or Jehovah, is a singular being. Jesus is Jehovah's created son through whom Jehovah created everything else. They believe his spirit, not his body, was resurrected, and that God is greater than Jesus. The Holy Spirit is seen as not a person, but Jehovah's force of action.

2. Jehovah's Witness Christians believe in the Bible as God's Word like other Christians, but they prefer their own New World Translation. The New World Translation "sometimes translates key passages, such as those about the nature of Jesus Christ, differently than other reputable English-language Bible translations," according to Religion Facts.
3. In terms of salvation, Witnesses believe Jesus died on a stake instead of a cross to pay for the sins of humanity. However, salvation is not through faith alone, but must be earned by obedience and loyalty to God's commands.
