5 Witnesses do not celebrate secular holidays such as Christmas, Easter, or Birthdays pointing out that no such celebrations were held by God's people in the Bible.

6 Witnesses believe that Christ was raised as a spirit being, and that the appearances to the Apostles were materializations, and so they deny the fleshly resurrection of Christ. Witnesses interpret the Bible as saying that Christ's soul was separated from his body, and that Jehovah the Father raised Christ and gave Him a new body of glorified spirit, rather than his old one being resurrected on the Third Day. Most Christians disagree and some call this a damnable heresy.

7 Witnesses do not believe that Jesus died on a traditional cross-shaped stake, but rather that Jesus most likely died a single-piece upright stake or a big wooden stick, post, or big tree limb with both of his hands above his head. This belief is rejected by most professed Christians.
