Summary/Abstract: The article shows the image of man in the Jehovah’s Witnesses doctrine. According to this doctrine, man do not have an immortal soul, but he is all a soul. In the moment of his death he ceases to exist, but he retains a hope of the resurrection. Jehovah’s Wit-nesses distinguish two classes of delivered people: a heavenly class and an earthly class. The heavenly class consists of 144 thousand of the delivered. On the other hand, the countless members of the earthly class will live, after the Armageddon, forever in the paradise on the Earth.
