Really, everyone who respects and obeys Jesus Christ goes from door to door to teach his neighbors about the Bible's good news. 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.”

My life changed for the better when Jehovah's Witnesses came to my door. At the time I was sleeping around, doing drugs, and I really needed help. Jehovah's Witnesses studied the Bible with me and now I'm a happy man. I got baptized in August 1996 and also got married in 1996. I'm very happy Witnesses came to my door.

Great idea! What about a motion sensor [the kind that turns on yard lights?] linked to your automatic sprinkler system... some Geek Consultant should be able to finagle this one for you. A dripping wet JW would make MY day, too! Might also work for wandering dogs looking for a latrine area... hey, the beat goes on!

Wire your sprinkler system into a motion detector. That should work. Course you'll nail the main man too, but oh well.

You can set them up with a motion detector.....We have one to keep dogs off the lawn...Works great.....
Really though ..true christians should help these people to see The error of theif doctrine and try to have them seek repentance and follow God in spirit and truth.

u would have to install a 'common sense detector' in your sprinklers. it would automatically douse the bible thumpers b/c any sensible person knows their common sense is running on low to empty.
goodluck and goodnight.

If you have automatic sprinklers you can. Have one directed at the door, when you see them go to the box and put it on manual.
