Solution for "Unbelieving Mates"

jgnat

Good plan, Lady Lee. I have more than a dozen other strategies in the works. At my current rate of progress, twenty weeks? Also very popular lately are the polls. I intend on compiling the polls so I can present a broader perspective. I am also open to collaboration, hint hint.

Future solutions:

Add Fun - Done!
Be a Tugboat
Can't Beat em
Confront Quietly - Done!
Dress for the Hall
Make Peace with the Cult Personality
Pro and Con
Reinforce their Humanity
Reveal your Humanity
Reverse Psychology
Start a Family Bible Study
Stick to the Topic
Sudden Shock
Talk like a JW
Turn off the Cult Personality
Use Humor
Word Pictures

A friend is looking at some scripts as well, to refute common JW talking points:

- God requires us to obey and we learn to obey by following the bible's commands.
- The bible is completely trustworthy for instruction on Christian living.
- Satan works hard to keep you from the truth.
- Satan can work through your loved ones.
- Christendom's Churches strayed from God when they adopted the trinity.
- Those who follow the trinity doctrine follow three gods.
- God hates customs that have a pagan origin.
- God works through One True Religion.
- The world is steadily getting worse and we are living in the last days.
- Jehovah's Witnesses advocate a clean lifestyle that is rare in our modern world.
- Christendom's Churches are all corrupt and have failed mankind and failed God.
- Even though the WTS has it's problems, we are to be patient and wait for Jehovah to work it out.
- At least we are better than anything else out there!

JW: Do you think man could solve the problems we have?

Householder: I think some people are really trying to do the right thing.

JW: Can I leave a Watchtower for you to read?

Householder: I read the bible own my own and do not need any other literature to go along with it.

JW: Isn't hard for you to understand it?

Householder: no I find by praying for understanding it becomes completely clear.

JW: No response.

'Where else would you find such loving,clean people to asscociate with?''

Elders told me they did not believe everything in the WT either,but just wait for Jehovah to put it right...

I am also open to collaboration, hint hint

Well I've been known to write a book or two so when you get to that point let me know

jgnat

What point? When I've got it mostly written? I'll need some help knowing the steps.

Lady Lee

Getting a lot of it written is a good start. To submit a query to a publisher they would want a chapter or two so they can see what you have

I'm off tomorrow to my daughter's for the week. We will do our own little rememberance of Robin there. But when I get back maybe we could talk about this and get some ideas about what you would need to publish a book and what direction to go in.

Saving for my own reference, more JW one-liners. Thanks, toer 5777

I have not yet to find another organization in the world that is like the Jehovah's Witnesses.

Yes it has made mistakes, they are imperfect humans.

What other organization in the world goes preaching house to house like jesus did?

Why is that JW's are persecuted all over the world?

The Watchtower has made mistakes but it is ruled by Jehovah.

What other religion believes in a paradise here in earth?

We are living in very bad times and I know that the end is near.

People reject Jehovah's Organization because it is too strict.

No, I reject the Jehovah's Witness organization because I don't believe they have the truth.

Let me guess you can't have drugs, nor fornication?

That is very rude. I am a clean-living Christian. Why would you assume such bad things of me?

Right I'm sorry where should I go and find the truth outside the so called cult?

The question is not where, but who. I believe you can have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, without the help of the Watchtower materials.

What is it that you guys believe in?

Jehovah's Witnesses don't pressure their members to donate.

What, you missed the last five articles on avoiding materialism and concentrating on spiritual things? Lately the Jehovah's Witnesses are definitely asking for more money.

I have researched other religions and beliefs and for me the truth is in the JW.

I'm sorry but there is no religion out there that takes seriously what the bible states.

Sorry, but the Amish, Mennonites, and the Seventh Day Adventists are much more serious about doing what the bible states.

The other religions are all wrong because they worship symbols and idols like the cross.

I dont think that it is brotherly of you to critize another religion.

But the Watchtower society says that all other religions are pagan and apostate, and those who follow them will die. The Watchtower society says they are the only ones who follow Jehovah's laws accurately. Any religion who claims to be the only ones to stand as mediator between God and man are held to a higher standard.

If someone is mad because of the displine it has to be done to keep the JW organization clean.

I'm sure I'm in the truth because the JW's are preaching that the Armagedon will come.

I see how Jehovah helps his organization how we have expanded preaching to more than 200 countries.
