Ironically, the official name of the religion is "Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses".
It is interesting that only Jehovah's Witnesses are so clearly identified with the preaching work; globally more than 6 million preach publicly each month.
(Matthew 28:19,20) Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you.
(Acts 5:42) Every day in the temple and from house to house they continued without letup teaching and declaring the good news about the Christ, Jesus.
(Acts 20:20) I did not hold back ...from teaching you publicly and from house to house
It's sad when someone who claims to respect the bible actually insults or even advocates attacking a peaceful preacher. Sad but completely expected.
(2 Timothy 4:3-5) For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the healthful teaching... You, though, keep your senses in all things, suffer evil, do the work of an evangelizer, fully accomplish your ministry.
Really, if someone goes out of their way to disregard Christian preachers and preaching, what is he saying about himself?
(Luke 10:1-17) After these things the Lord designated seventy others and sent them forth by twos... “He that listens to you listens to me too. And he that disregards you disregards me too. Moreover, he that disregards me disregards also him that sent me forth.”

I personally have never met a Cristian or a Jojoba. However the principles for sharing one's beliefs with another are pretty much the same regardless of faith. First and foremost one must know their own beliefs backwards and forewards. It is a good idea to have a basic idea of the other person's beliefs. Another important thing to remember is POLITENESS.

I wasn't aware that Jojoba needed any witness, unless it's the health-care products that use this partticular shrub. It's great shampoo, it's great on wounds and such, but why would a Christian wish to witness either to the shrub, or those who speak on its behalf?

As one of Jehovah's Witnesses, should I be offended, or as an English speaker should I pity your spelling/grammar?
