    Or invisibly maybe.

    If Jehovah`s Witnesses really did reason from the Scriptures they would realize That:

    1.That the name Jehovah does not appear in the Christian Greek Scriptures at all. "The kingdom Interlinear Of The Christian Greek Scriptures" published by WTB&TS.

    2.Nowhere in the New Testament / Christian Greek Scriptures are Christians instructed to be witnesses of Jehovah whereas they are continually being told to bear witness about Jesus Christ.

    3.Phil.2:10 Clearly states that Jesus and his Kingdom is the one to be acknowledged and witnessed to throughout the earth by Christians.

    4.Charles Taze Russell / I.B.S.A. recognized this that is why his signature publication was titled " Zions WatchTower and Herald Of Christs Presence"...in contrast to the latter day Jehovah`s Witnesses / Joseph F Rutherford "The WatchTower Announcing Jehovah`s Kingdom"

    5.Nowhere in the New Testament /Christian Greek Scriptures are Christians instructed to witness about "Jehovah`s Kingdom" ,in fact the term/phrase does not appear in the Christian Greek Scriptures / N.T. at all.

    6.Not only do the Governing Body of Jehovah`s Witnesses re-write and change / falsify their own early history they apparently have no qualms about re-writing and change / falsify the Bible to fit their own agenda / doctrines.

    Once again, for the newbies, lurkers, and trolls...

    ...if you have to cheat to defend your beliefs, your beliefs don't deserve to be defended.

    When I was new in the cult, I was so proud of this reasoning book as a Roman soldier would have been with his new honed sword.

    Time makes everything funny.

    I don't recall anyone ever using the publication at the doors in my history of preaching. Given the fact that is all the witnesses do now is stand next to a cart and playing candy crush, I suspect the answer is never.

    Witnesses no longer reason from the scriptures anyway. When standing next to a cart, if any questions are asked, they point persons to jw.org.
