My Jehovah's witness

[epistemaniac]

I said the "average" Christian Jack... if you studied long and hard for three days prior to your meeting with the JW's... if you consulted Walter Martin's Kingdom of the Cults in order to prepare for your encounter, you are not an average Christian, and it was Walter Martin himself who actually said "the average Jehovah's Witness can make a "doctrinal pretzel" out of the average Christian in about 30 seconds." ... so I was being generous by making it 5 minutes instead of 30 seconds

blessings,
Ken

My daughter was a student for one year at Utah State as a gymnast. I'm sure the Mormon missionaries thought they would get this little Baptist girl. She is so well grounded and unafraid to speak up that she had them so confused they left in mid sentence. They never came back to see her and we haven't been visited by the "missionaries" since then, though I see them real often in our neighborhood. It's like we're on their black list now.

Their black list is God's book of life list.

You may be right since sadly, the average Christian has an inch of dust on their Bible.

I have a Jehovah's witness. Her name is Brooke.

Where can I get one? How often do you have to feed them? Do they do well in a kennel while you are at work?

I have invited JWs & Mormons in, but I have never convinced them to change their tune. Needless to say, I hold my own in the discussions. Both used to come more often. Maybe they wrote down my street address as a place to avoid. I usually start with, "I weep for you. I would love to lead you to saving faith in Christ Jesus." I want to read John 1:11, John 3:16-17, John 14:6, Romans 10:8-13 after they reject my offer, but I rarely get that far. When the Mormons want to start by praying, I reject that immediately. I don't know who they are talking to!

KEN!! I so appreciate that description, "3,000 miles wide & one inch deep." It's worth a thousand words!
