What do jehovah's witnesses believe? ?

I’m a Jehovah witness and we believe, like the man commented as well, that Jehovah is god. The almighty. Who rules everything. Jehovah's Witnesses are a Christian religious sect rooted in the Adventist movement of the late 1800s in the United States. While our practices broke with the Adventists when our group formed its own religious body, the founder, Charles Taze Russell, worked closely with Adventist groups in publishing the magazine The Herald of the Morning before founding Zion's Watch Tower. Through publishing their own translation of the Bible in several different languages and using an active ministry of door-to-door speaking.believe in God, the creator, and that Jesus Christ is His son. However, we do not believe in the Trinity, the doctrine that God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit are all aspects of one God. We believe that the Holy Spirit is the power of God, but not its own being.Rather than the mainstream belief that Jesus' death was a sacrifice to purify the world of sin, they believe that it was a ransom payment for the original sins of Adam and Eve. To benefit from the payment, a person must be a believer, get baptized, and change their lives in a way that their works reveal their new path. The Jehovah's Witnesses differ strongly from mainstream Christianity in their beliefs on death and the afterlife. Rather than a person going to Heaven or Hell after death, they believe a person ceases to exist, but not permanently. They believe God will resurrect billions of people after the end of the world on Judgment Day. Those who are not believers or who are unrepentant sinners, God will leave to their nonexistence rather than condemn them to an eternity of torment. Most of the resurrected will live an eternity free of suffering on a transformed Earth, ruled over by Jesus Christ. God will show favor to a select few, as 144,000 of all the people resurrected will be brought to Heaven to live with Him for eternity.

the first lok sabha in 1951 had 22 women mps. the current lok sabha has 66. in the span of 54 years and 16 lok sabha elections it amounts to a three- fold increase in the number of women mps that made their way to the lower house of the parliament. from 5% in 1951, women mps constitute 12.2% of the lok sabha today. the rise in numbers has been steady through the years, both in absolute numbers and percentages. the notable exceptions have been the dip in numbers during the 6th lok sabha in 1977, the 9th lok sabha in 1989 and most recently the 14th lok sabha in 2004. the trends show a marked and steady increase from 1991 onwards to the present lok sabha. the 1991 figures show a jump from 5% in the previous lok sabha to 7% and the steady increase from thereon (except for 2004). it would be interesting to understand the factors for this watershed year and continuous rise and also the fall in numbers during 2004.

the average representation of women mps( 12.15%) is higher than the national average of women mlas in state assemblies, which stands at a dismal 9%. while the numbers have increased over the years, the percentage of women that make up the lok sabha even today is not a figure to be proud of, especially when the ideal number should be at 33% at least. we still have a long way to go.

central to the question of women’s representation in lok sabha is the appetite for women to take the political plunge and jump into the fray along with and against male candidates, getting tickets from their respective parties to contest elections and finally winning the seats that they contest. while popular perception might be that few women are willing to or have taken the political plunge, number of women contestants tells an interesting story. between 1957(the earliest data available) and 2015, the total number of women contestants has increased from 45 to 668. that is a whopping 15 fold increase in the number of women contesting. if we looked at the data for male contestants for the same years, the number has increased from 1474 to 7583, a five- fold increase. the 15 fold increase in women contestants indicates towards the growing appetite for women to enter the political fray and willingness to be part of political decision-making.
