I do, I am one. Yes we will be persecuted, mocked, and ridiculed, but can our opposers give us everlasting life? Can they promise us that we may see our dead loved ones again? Can they help us learn the TRUTH about the Bible? NO!!! They are humans just like us, their statements are very rude and insulting but who cares. Remember those who don't listen to our message are rejecting JEHOVAH, not us, so keep on persevering in your ministry.

I have some relatives and friends that are Jehovah's Witnesses. At times, they can act very sanctimonious. The also sometimes push their beliefs too far. As I quickly learned when I sold farm machinery, you can talk yourself out of a sale. Many Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons do this. I think this is a terrible shame because as the world is now, people need to recognize God, if not Jesus too, and not be over talked to and get turned off by the overselling of the Lord.
The missionaries need to learn when enough is enough.

I love being a Jehovah Witness. I love Jehovah and Jesus Christ. I can not believe how people are so nasty as soon as they find out you are a Jehovah Witness. we have feeling just like anyone else. if they don't want us knocking on there door, they should tell us to put them on the do not call list. I guess they don't want to learn about our awesome Father Jehovah and Jesus Christ. being a Jehovah Witness and seeing the answers that people write, they know nothing about us. they are blinded by the devil. now I know what Jesus meant when he said they hated him first and they will hate us for being his Witnesses. we as Jehovah Witnesses can be there neighbor and they will not even know. we shop in there stores and pay bills just like them. so all the nasty words you say about us, don't even bother us. they will learn. they laughed at Noah also. I wish people would spell God's name right. it is JEHOVAH. why would we put in on tv. so you can change the channel. we rather talk to people. if you don't like it than you must of turned Jesus away also.

Jehovah's Witnesses are unconcerned about becoming popular in this old world. Instead, they work to please their Creator, the Almighty God Jehovah and the head of the Christian congregation, Jesus Christ.
(Galatians 1:10-12) Is it, in fact, men I am now trying to persuade or God? Or am I seeking to please men? If I were yet pleasing men, I would not be Christ’s slave. For I put you on notice, brothers, that the good news which was declared by me as good news is not something human; for neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught it, except through revelation by Jesus Christ.

I had a friend in elementary school that was a Jehovah Witness. She moved away and I miss her dearly! I have no problem with the people, I just don't agree with the faith.

First if you are satisfied with being a JV then don't worry about who does or doesn't like you for it....You always have others of yor faith to fellowship with. ....................... I do not agree with most of the Jahova Witness beliefs, but that don't make ya all bad people. The truth is I haven't met one I didn't like. Most are very nice...............as far as knocking on my door help yourself. I made a few good friends that way ................We discuss our differences and our likenesses. In some ways we are very different and in others close to the same........... God bless

I do,their is nothing wrong with them.a lot of people say bad things about them but that is not going to change the way i feel.they are the only ones who call God by his name and they do like Jesus did have no part of this wicked system of things,they go out in services trying to encourage people to let them know we are living in the last days and they need to do something before it is to late.but like it says in the bible we are like back in Noah's time.they will be crying when it does happen but crying why?because the fail to listen to the truth.and all the others will be crying why?because we listen.people don't understand their is only one God and his name is Jehovah and one son Jesus Christ.who gave his life for us to have life.

To each their own. However it is not fair to keep knocking on doors time after time after you tell them you are not interested. I dont not beleive in their ways but I don't take my religion and try to force feeed it down people throats and make you fell guilty for not listening. Why dont' you just send you ad message via TV that way people can turn it off if they don't want to listen.
