"Experience the Jehovah Saints Future Temple, a groundbreaking fusion of faith and technology. A beacon of light and innovation, uniting spirituality, advanced design, and global worship in a sanctuary of eternal hope." VISION Future Jehovah Saints International Headquarters Image Loading... Unity in Worship: A Vision of Peace and Collaboration The Image and Its Meaning The image above is an AI-generated representation, intentionally designed to resemble a mosque with a cross on top, symbolizing the unity and shared foundations of the Abrahamic faiths: Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. It reflects the vision of Jehovah Saints to foster collaboration and mutual respect among these faiths, as we all worship the same God—the God of Abraham. Scripture Inspiration: “Have we not all one Father? Did not one God create us?” — Malachi 2:10 Shared Heritage: The God of Abraham Our vision is inspired by the shared ancestry of the Abrahamic religions: Judaism: The descendants of Abraham’s son Jacob. Islam: The descendants of Abraham’s son Ishmael. Christianity: Those who follow the teachings of Jesus Christ, who is rooted in the lineage of Abraham. These three faiths are intrinsically connected, all tracing their spiritual heritage back to Abraham, a man of great faith and obedience to God. Scripture Inspiration: “I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.” — Genesis 12:2-3 A Vision for Peace and Unity Jehovah Saints knows that Jews, Muslims, and Christians are brothers and sisters under God, and we are called to live in peace and harmony. Our vision is to reflect this unity in our actions and projects. By incorporating architectural elements of both mosques and churches, we aim to symbolize the shared values and aspirations of these faiths. Our ultimate goal is to foster peace on Earth while serving those in need, such as through our global homeless shelter initiatives. Scripture Inspiration: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” — Matthew 5:9 The Call to Love Your Neighbor At the heart of our mission is the commandment to love and treat others as we would want to be treated. This principle is shared across Christianity, Judaism, and Islam and is the foundation of our work. Christianity: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” — Mark 12:31 Judaism: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” — Leviticus 19:18 Islam: “None of you truly believes until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself.” — Sahih Muslim 45 By treating everyone as our neighbor, regardless of faith or background, we aim to build bridges of understanding and compassion. Building Homeless Shelters: A Shared Mission Our work to build homeless shelters worldwide reflects our commitment to serving humanity and living out the values of our faith. This mission transcends religious boundaries and focuses on the shared call to care for the vulnerable and uplift the downtrodden. Scripture Inspiration: “If there is a poor man among your brothers in any of the towns of the land that the Lord your God is giving you, do not be hardhearted or tightfisted toward your poor brother. Rather, be openhanded and freely lend him whatever he needs.” — Deuteronomy 15:7-8 Our Goal: Peace and Compassion Our goal is simple yet profound: Promote Unity: Recognize the shared heritage and values of the Abrahamic faiths. Seek Peace: Work toward harmony among all people, regardless of their faith. Serve Others: Love and care for our neighbors as ourselves, fulfilling the command of God. Scripture Inspiration: “How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!” — Psalm 133:1 We invite you to join us in this mission of unity, peace, and service. Whether through prayer, donations, or active participation, you can be part of this vision to create a world where faith unites rather than divides, and where love and compassion are extended to all.

"Listen to the Bible for free with our audio Bible. Access God’s Word anytime, anywhere, and grow in faith through inspiring Scripture readings in multiple languages."

"Get a free Bible in any language! Access the Word of God in your native tongue and grow in faith. Request your free copy today and explore Scripture in the language you understand best." The Story of the Living Word Across the World In a small village nestled in the mountains of Ethiopia, an elderly woman named Asha sat on her wooden stool, holding a well-worn copy of the Bible in her hands. The text was written in Amharic, her native language, a gift from missionaries who had visited her village decades ago. Asha’s Bible was her most treasured possession, but she often wondered how many other people across the world could read the Word of God in their own tongue. Little did she know, her question would lead her on an extraordinary journey of discovery. One night, as Asha prayed by candlelight, she felt a strange warmth in her heart. Closing her eyes, she asked, “Lord, how far has Your Word traveled? How many voices speak Your truth?” When she opened her eyes, she found herself standing in a vast library. Shelves stretched endlessly in every direction, filled with books of every size, color, and language. A man with kind eyes and a radiant glow approached her. “Welcome, Asha,” he said. “This is the Library of the Living Word. Here, you’ll find every translation of the Bible, written in every language of the world.” Asha gasped. “Every language? Every translation?” The man nodded. “Yes, my child. Let me show you the journey of God’s Word, from its original languages to the farthest corners of the earth.” The Original Word The man led Asha to a golden shelf at the center of the library. “This is where it all began,” he said, pointing to three ancient scrolls. “The Bible was first written in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. The Old Testament was primarily written in Hebrew, with some passages in Aramaic, like parts of Daniel and Ezra. The New Testament was written in Koine Greek, the common language of the Roman Empire.” Asha touched the scrolls reverently. “So these are the first words of God’s story?” “Yes,” the man said. “But God’s Word was never meant to stay in one place or one language. It was meant to reach every nation.” The Early Translations The man led Asha to another shelf, where she saw ancient manuscripts in languages she didn’t recognize. “These are the earliest translations,” he explained. “The Septuagint, a Greek translation of the Hebrew Scriptures, was made around 300 BC for Jews living in Alexandria who no longer spoke Hebrew. Then came the Peshitta, a Syriac translation, and the Latin Vulgate, translated by St. Jerome in the 4th century. The Vulgate became the standard Bible for the Western Church for over a thousand years.” Asha marveled at the faded pages. “These translations must have taken so much work.” “They did,” the man agreed. “But the translators believed that everyone deserved to hear God’s Word in their own language.” The Reformation and the Explosion of Translations The man walked further down the aisle, where the books became more numerous. “During the Reformation, the Bible began to be translated into the languages of the common people. Martin Luther translated the Bible into German in 1522, and William Tyndale translated it into English. These translations brought the Word of God to millions who had never been able to read it before.” Asha picked up a Bible with ornate lettering. “What is this one?” “That’s the King James Version, completed in 1611,” the man said. “It became one of the most influential English translations in history. But it’s just one of many. Today, there are hundreds of English translations, each with its own approach to the text.” The Modern Translations The man waved his hand, and a wall of books appeared, each labeled with a different English translation. “Here you’ll find the New International Version (NIV), the New Living Translation (NLT), the English Standard Version (ESV), the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV), the Christian Standard Bible (CSB), and many more. Each one seeks to make the Bible accessible to modern readers.” Asha’s head spun as she read the titles: The Message, the Amplified Bible, the Good News Translation, the New King James Version, and more. “Why so many versions in one language?” “Each translation serves a different purpose,” the man explained. “Some aim for word-for-word accuracy, while others focus on conveying the meaning in a way that’s easy to understand. Together, they help people connect with God’s Word in different ways.” The Global Reach The man led Asha to another section of the library, where the shelves were filled with Bibles in countless languages. “Here is where the true beauty of God’s Word is revealed,” he said. “The Bible has been translated into over 3,600 languages, with portions available in thousands more.” Asha picked up a Bible written in Swahili, then another in Mandarin Chinese. “How did this happen?” “Through the dedication of translators, missionaries, and organizations like Wycliffe Bible Translators, the United Bible Societies, and many others,” the man said. “They have spent decades working to bring the Bible to every language group on earth.” He pointed to a shelf labeled with African languages: Zulu, Xhosa, Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa. “Here are translations for the people of Africa.” He moved to another shelf labeled with Asian languages: Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Tagalog, Japanese, and Korean. “And here are translations for Asia.” They continued walking, passing Bibles in Spanish, Portuguese, French, and German for Europe and the Americas, as well as indigenous languages like Quechua, Navajo, and Cherokee. Asha’s eyes filled with tears. “So many people can read God’s Word in their own language.” The Work Continues The man stopped at a small, empty shelf. “But the work is not yet finished,” he said. “There are still over 1,800 languages without any portion of Scripture. Millions of people are still waiting to hear God’s Word in their heart language.” Asha felt a pang of sadness. “What can be done?” “God is raising up people to complete the work,” the man said. “Translators, linguists, and missionaries are working tirelessly to bring the Bible to every tribe and tongue. And you, Asha, can pray for them and support their work.” The Power of the Word As they returned to the center of the library, the man said, “The Bible is more than just a book. It is the living Word of God, speaking to people in every language and culture. It has the power to transform lives, bring hope, and unite people across the world.” Asha nodded, her heart full of awe and gratitude. “Thank you for showing me this.” When she opened her eyes, she was back in her small village, her Amharic Bible in her hands. But now, she saw it with new eyes. It was not just her Bible—it was part of a great tapestry of God’s Word, woven through every language and every nation. From that day on, Asha prayed daily for the work of Bible translation, knowing that one day, every person on earth would hear the Good News in their own tongue. Epilogue: Every Tribe and Tongue The story of Bible translation is still being written. From the King James Version to the NIV, from Swahili to Siberian Yupik, the Word of God continues to spread. One day, as Revelation 7:9 promises, people from every nation, tribe, and language will stand before the throne of God, united in worship. Until then, the work goes on, bringing the living Word to every corner of the earth.

"Learn about 508(c)(1)(A) organizations, a special designation for faith-based, non-profit ministries that operate with tax-exempt status while maintaining religious freedom and autonomy." Jehovah Saints A 508(c)(1)(A) non-profit faith-based organization is a type of tax-exempt organization in the United States specifically designated for churches, ministries, and other religious organizations. It is distinct from the more commonly known 501(c)(3) organizations, though both are tax-exempt under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Below is a detailed explanation of what a 508(c)(1)(A) organization is: 1. What is a 508(c)(1)(A)? 508(c)(1)(A) refers to a section of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code that automatically exempts certain religious organizations, such as churches, synagogues, mosques, and other places of worship, from federal income tax. These organizations are not required to apply for formal recognition of their tax-exempt status with the IRS (as 501(c)(3) organizations typically do). They are automatically considered tax-exempt as long as they meet the criteria of being a church or a religious organization. 2. Key Features of a 508(c)(1)(A) Organization Faith-Based Focus: These organizations are specifically for religious purposes, such as churches, ministries, or other faith-based missions. Automatic Tax Exemption: Unlike 501(c)(3) organizations, which must file Form 1023 to apply for tax-exempt status, 508(c)(1)(A) organizations are automatically tax-exempt if they meet the criteria for being a church or religious organization. No Annual Filing Requirement: Churches and other 508(c)(1)(A) organizations are generally not required to file Form 990 (the annual information return required of most 501(c)(3) organizations). First Amendment Protections: These organizations often emphasize their First Amendment rights, including freedom of religion and speech, which allows them to operate with less government interference compared to other types of non-profits. 3. Differences Between 508(c)(1)(A) and 501(c)(3) While both are tax-exempt, there are some notable differences: Feature 508(c)(1)(A) and 501(c)(3) 508(c)(1)(A) Purpose Specifically for churches, ministries, and faith-based organizations. 501(c)(3) Broader scope, including charities, schools, etc. 508(c)(1)(A) Tax Exemption Automatic (no application required) 501(c)(3) Must apply using IRS Form 1023 508(c)(1)(A) Annual Filing (Form 990) Not required for churches. 501(c)(3) Required for most organizations. 508(c)(1)(A) Government Oversight Minimal due to First Amendment protections. 501(c)(3) More oversight and compliance requirements. 508(c)(1)(A) Political Activity Limited, but some argue more flexibility for churches. 501(c)(3) Strictly limited under IRS rules. 4. Benefits of 508(c)(1)(A) Status Privacy: Churches and ministries do not need to disclose financial details publicly, as they are not required to file Form 990. First Amendment Protections: Because these organizations are rooted in religious freedom, they often have greater protections from government interference. Ease of Formation: There is no lengthy application process for tax-exempt status, as the exemption is automatic for qualifying religious organizations. Flexibility in Operations: Some argue that 508(c)(1)(A) organizations have more flexibility in areas like political involvement, though this is still subject to interpretation and legal limits. 5. Limitations of a 508(c)(1)(A) Organization Religious Focus Required: These organizations must be faith-based and exist for religious purposes. They cannot operate as secular charities or non-profits. Not Ideal for Non-Religious Causes: If your organization is not explicitly religious, it will not qualify for 508(c)(1)(A) status and would need to apply under 501(c)(3). Misuse Risks: Some organizations improperly claim 508(c)(1)(A) status to avoid IRS scrutiny. It’s essential to operate within the law and ensure the organization genuinely qualifies as a church or religious entity. 6. What Qualifies as a Church or Religious Organization? The IRS uses a set of criteria to determine whether an organization qualifies as a church or religious organization under 508(c)(1)(A). These include: Having a distinct legal existence Recognized creed and form of worship Regular religious services Established places of worship Ordained ministers or clergy Religious instruction for members A membership not associated with any other church or denomination 7. Examples of 508(c)(1)(A) Organizations Local churches, synagogues, mosques, and temples. Ministries focused on evangelism, outreach, or faith-based education. Religious missions or organizations that provide spiritual guidance and support. A 508(c)(1)(A) non-profit faith-based organization is a powerful way for churches and ministries to operate with tax-exempt status while maintaining their religious freedoms. It provides the benefits of tax exemption without the extensive filing and reporting requirements of a 501(c)(3). However, it’s essential to ensure that the organization truly qualifies as a church or religious entity and operates in compliance with IRS guidelines. For religious organizations seeking to focus on ministry and outreach, this designation aligns with both practical and spiritual goals. Are Donations to 508(c)(1)(A) Non-Profit Organizations Tax-Deductible? Donations to 508(c)(1)(A) non-profit organizations are generally tax-deductible for donors, provided certain conditions are met. These organizations are faith-based and operate under the umbrella of tax exemption as outlined in the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Below, we explain how this works and what donors need to know about contributing to these organizations. Why Are Donations Tax-Deductible? The IRS recognizes 508(c)(1)(A) organizations as a subset of 501(c)(3) organizations. This means they share the same benefits, including: Tax-Exempt Status: The organization does not pay federal income taxes on its charitable activities. Deductible Contributions: Donations made to the organization can be deducted from the donor’s taxable income, provided the donation meets IRS guidelines. How to Ensure Your Donation is Tax-Deductible To claim a tax deduction for a donation to a 508(c)(1)(A) organization, follow these steps: 1. Verify the Organization's Status While 508(c)(1)(A) organizations are not always listed in the IRS Tax-Exempt Organization Search database (since they are automatically exempt ), you can confirm their status by contacting the organization directly. 2. Obtain a Receipt The organization should provide a written acknowledgment or receipt for your donation. This receipt should include: The organization’s name. The date of the donation. The amount of the donation. A statement that no goods or services were provided in exchange for the donation (if applicable). 3. Keep Records Maintain records of your donation, such as canceled checks, credit card statements, or receipts from the organization. 4. Consult a Tax Professional If you’re unsure about the deductibility of your donation, consult a tax advisor or accountant to ensure compliance with IRS regulations. IRS Guidelines for Tax-Deductible Donations To qualify as tax-deductible, donations must meet the following IRS requirements: The donation must be made to a qualified non-profit organization (such as a 508(c)(1)(A) organization). The donation must be a gift, meaning you do not receive goods or services in return. You must itemize deductions on your tax return to claim the deduction. Benefits of Donating to a 508(c)(1)(A) Organization Support Faith-Based Initiatives: Your contribution helps support religious programs, ministries, and charitable activities that align with the organization’s mission. Tax Savings: By deducting your donation, you can reduce your taxable income and potentially lower your tax bill. Impactful Giving: Donations to faith-based organizations often go directly toward helping those in need, including providing food, shelter, counseling, and spiritual support. Conclusion Donations to 508(c)(1)(A) non-profit organizations are typically tax-deductible, offering you the opportunity to support faith-based initiatives while reducing your taxable income. However, it’s important to ensure the organization meets IRS requirements and to keep proper documentation of your contributions. If you have any questions about donating to a 508(c)(1)(A) organization or claiming your deduction, consult the organization directly or seek advice from a tax professional.
