1 John 1
3That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
4And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.
5This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
7But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

The way Jesus did. By using His moral law (the 10 Commandments) to bring the knowledge of sin. If a person doesn't understand that they have sinned against a holy and just God they will not see their need for a Savior.
Jesus used the Law in John 4 with the woman at the well. In Luke 18 with the rich, young ruler he used 5 of the 10 Commandments. In meeting with the lawyer in Luke 10 He used the Law as well.
Never will you see Jesus giving the Good News to a proud, arrogant person. With the Law He breaks the hard heart, and with the Gospel He heals the broken heart.
Paul, Peter, John, James, Stephen and all of the apostles used the Law. Charles Spurgeon, John Wesley, Jonathan Edwards used the Law. And that's what we must do too.

Most people know about Religion, and have heard about Salvation. Whether they believe it or nor is another matter.

The spreading of any religion must be countered the same way any dangerous disease is attacked or resisted to protect Humanity.

The same way St. Francis of Assisi told us to: "Preach the Gospel at all times, and if necessary, use words."

Jehovah's Witnesses have been following Jesus' command to "make disciples, baptizing them" Its just that no one wants to listen. They want to practice religion that fits their lifestyle and reject what God wants. Witnesses have been called a cult, but they promote Godly love and unity. Jesus, Jehovah's first creation went door to door preaching the good news of God's kingdom. We should do the same.
