Has your minister, priest or religious leader mentioned this wonderful hope to you? Of course they have not, most clergymen say nothing about it. In fact, many do not even believe the Bible. This is an important reason why Jehovah’s witnesses call at the homes of people of other religions.
The efforts of Jehovah’s witnesses to approach people in public and at their homes are rooted in the Word of God. Jesus himself went directly to the people, and he instructed his apostles and disciples to do likewise.
This is for "gibberish000" JW's are in 235 lands & islands, we respect the flag of each country unlike most christian religions, Why do you think, the prisons are full of so-called Christians, why is it that so-called Christians are the ones that "burn, spit, step on the "flag" and show disrespect not only to the flag but to the country they live in?
Is it because of people that could care less about
God's rules that are layed out in the Bible?
I can think of a President of the U.S.A. that saluted or said the pledge of allegiance every day, yet He had to leave office because of wrong doing, and the deliberate act of deviating from the truth. So the saluting and pledge is not what makes you a good person, it's obeying God's Word, that does.
The Witnesses’ beliefs, based entirely on God’s Word, the Bible, prevent them from falling into the trap of becoming a sect or a cult. They take a kindly interest in all other people, of whatever religious persuasion. No, they do not try to force these people to change their viewpoint. They endeavor to imitate their Leader, Christ Jesus, by presenting Scriptural evidence of the trouble-free Paradise that will soon be established on earth.—Matthew 28:19, 20; 1 Peter 2:21.
Recently a clergyman in Brooklyn, New York, obtained a copy of the book The Truth That Leads to Eternal Life. He was so impressed with the chapter dealing with prayer that he used the book to teach members of his church this chapter in a special meeting. Later he was asked by one of them, “Are you teaching us out of those Jehovah’s witnesses’ books?”
He replied: “It is the truth, isn’t it? When you want Sunday-school literature, you buy it from several sources, don’t you? Well, Jehovah’s witnesses teach the truth. Furthermore, when you see Jehovah’s witnesses with the Watchtower magazine, you ought to take it, because they print the truth.”
For the negative answers you are getting, ask them these ???
1. Were any of you ever a Jehovah's Witness?
2. Did you just decide to leave without a reason?
3. Was there a reason?
4. Were you disfellowshipped?
5. If you were disfellowshipped, for what reason?
Here are some reasons one can be removed from
the Congregation, please choose one or more.
Some of the offenses that could merit disfellowshipping from the Christian congregation are fornication, adultery, homosexuality, greed, extortion, thievery, lying, drunkenness, reviling, spiritism, murder, idolatry, apostasy, and the causing of divisions in the congregation.
6. Or is it just because you hate what we believe?
These people have 3 things on their brain, Catholics,
Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, they just wait for a ??? like yours, so they can give you their negative answers.
Why don't these people wise up and start acting like a
Christian, isn't that what most of them claim to be?

are idiots that break apart families and wake my *** up at 8am on saturday mornings? That are considered a cult because of how poorly they interpret the bible? Is that what you were looking for? That won't say pledge of allegence or celebrate a kids birthday? That will shun a family member if they get a divorce? The list goes on and on for this poor excuse for a religion.

hey, one of my best friends is a Jehovah's Witness. He ran his own cleaning company and cleaned the offices where I worked. I usually always worked a little late and would talk to him almost daily---just shoot the shi$--that kind of stuff. I left that company back in 1995 and lost touch with him. So, SCOTT, who cleaned the ASARCO offices in GLOVER, MO, if you see this---how's it going, buddy?

They are devote, proseliting, owe their origins to a pastor russell, have a large international following, bring around the Watchtower magazine, & believe their theology is right.

I like the Jehovah's Witnesses (as individuals)... but their theology is not Christian (i.e., not from the Christian Bible).
Cordially,
John

they believe that heaven is here on earth. they but out vaious interpretations of the bible. they come to your house and knock on your door when they're uninvited. they ask you to give them money when they hand out "tracts".tracts are little flyers with bible verses in them. they will come in your house and pray for you if you want. they worship at a place called,"kingdom Hall". They are also non-denominational. They don't follow a particular sect of religion. for example, christian or baptist.
