    Forgive me if this has been said and done already. But I thought a new thread wouldn't hurt. I get two every couple of days and I hardly make use of that. Today I feel this one will be a good thread.

    While trying to come up with everyway possible and actually fulfilling my thoughts (of trying to save those I know who are trapped) I thought of a way that might actually work. While many people use the net for communications such as blogs and chats. I already know my friends and family will not look at websites that go against what they teach. So I thought of a slightly clever way. I've been blogging random thoughts of stuff that comes to mind (hence the random thoughts.) lol At the end I'll place a bible verse that is relevent to what I wrote. The first couple of times I got a "I like that bible verse" It became clear to me that they obvisouly did not know it was not in their bible. So I went about it another way. I wrote something then ended with a verse from the bible.. only this time I put the Book and chapter:verse. nothing of what it says. Just reason/ purpose for the verse. This will have them to need to look it up and what's missing look and feeling going on when they see it is not there. I know it is a long shot but I'm up for trying anything. I will continue to do this until I am sucessful or run out of verses.

    Does this seem like a good idea to you?

    What else works (ed) for you?

    That's a great idea, and caring of you to think to do it. I have been shocked to be reading the Bible and finding verses they have either taken out of context, or not talked about that I remember. It is quite refreshing to be able to read it and think of a possible other application.

    Keep it up!

    What about those who are readers of the NWT only, how do you convince those to look at another version such as KJV and NKJV? if they are told that the missing verses are not found in new transcripts? Many know that, but they do not know is that the NWT not only leave the verses out but they change other verses to match the teachings. I have a strong sense of overwhelmness coming over me, maybe that is a sign that what I am doing is good and will, eventually with time and love will find its place to work.

    I think its a good way of trying to reach people and I hope it works for you. I am forever trying to come up with the "right way" to let my JW family know the truth about what the WT are really like. It may often seem like a drip-feed but is an effective method.
