"I will try that. I have been told though that the trinity is a topic that should not be brought up because of the deep training JWs have had in regards to it." -- Shawn
As a SUBJECT that is true. But using the booklet for this purpose is a different mater.
The JW can 'argue' Bible verse upon Bible verse to prove that the trinity doctrine is not taught in the Bible. But, they will have a hard time 'explaining' why the Society has MISQUOTED the source material to back up their point of view in that booklet.
You, on the other hand, can work the system by being 'curious' about the JW beliefs and want to know exactly why they teach that the 'trinity doctrine' is wrong, since this is a major point in your own belief system. That is why you want to read their 'Trinity' booklet. You want to find out "THE REAL TRUTH" (ie that the JW's are right) about the trinity.
Now, with that booklet in hand, you start to read. Your 'unbelief' at what you have been reading has caused you to 'question' the sources that they used, so that you wanted to 'read the sources for yourself' and guess what you have found!! MISQUOTES!!
It is a game, Shawn, and you must always 'play dumb' in order to get through the mind-control. If a JW THINKS they are 'teaching' you, you can ask all kinds of damaging 'questions'.
This is the method that is taught in Ron Rhodes book that you said you had in your posession.
