According to James 2:17,18, “faith without works is dead”; in other words, biblical theory without practice consistent with it is useless to God. For this reason, a religious organization that calls itself Christian, but that does not practice its own teachings in full, is not truly Christian. This does not mean being perfect, 100% correct in everything, because all Christians are imperfect and sinners, which is why we all make mistakes, we sin, whether in words or in actions. . But the continuous effort to maintain an unblemished conduct inside and outside religion, honest, ethical, moral and spiritually approved by God, is a fundamental Christian duty. That said, this work has the general objective of presenting the theocratic practices and procedures of Jehovah's Witnesses around the world. To this end, a bibliographical and narrative documentary review is carried out, under the Giftedean neoperspectivist paradigm, reasoning according to the hypothetical-deductive method. It concludes that for Christian religious teachings and practices to become an acceptable conduct, an acceptable way of life, approved by the Creator God Jehovah, and healthy psychically, spiritually and socially speaking, it is necessary to learn to live at the intersection between biblical knowledge and knowledge scientific. Because failing to follow the first in favor of the second leads to lacisism or atheism, and failing to follow the second in favor of the first leads to religious fanaticism, as is present among Jehovah's Witnesses today.
