As others have pointed out, all religions claim to be the true one, and everybody believes their own religion -or position about religion- is the correct one. I’ve never heard anybody say: “As for religion (or politics or whatever), I believe this and that, but I am wrong”.
The interesting thing is not the fact that someone believes to be right, but their reasons for that belief. And our reasons are in our understanding of the Bible.
That is the key from our perspective: if the Bible is God’s Word, it is the Bible which defines the right way to worship God. So, to summarize some of our points:
In any case, for a person to accept these points, there are two previous steps in my opinion: to arrive at the conviction that there is a Creator, and to get to the conclusion that the Bible is the message from the Creator to humankind. Once you have reached these two steps, you just need to analyse the Bible.
At least that’s our point of view about this.

- Our worship and beliefs are based on the Bible, and we reject other traditional doctrines or religious practices (Mark 7:7).
- We worship only Jehovah. We do not worship the son of the only true God (John 17:3) and we do not give any kind of religious veneration to Jesus’ mother or other saints.
- We love one another, which includes our daily actions, but also things such as refusing to go to war (John 13:34,35).
- We obey Jesus’ teachings and commands and we see him and his sacrifice as the way to God (John 14:6).
- We don’t get involved in politics (John 18:36).
- We acclaim God’s Kingdom as the only solution to humankind’s problems and we publicly spread that good news (Mat 24:14).
