I remember repeating this line from the Reasoning book.
Thinking back now I don't know how I ever said it with a straight face.
I remember either reading somewhere or someone telling me that it was right to say this to the householder and that we were being truthful. And that they would realize that we teach the bible truths. How?
By reading the householder a key text, they would be attracted to our message.
The text read was always what I would call a 'carrot' text, no illness, panda hugging, resurrection, anything BUT what I should have been telling them..... the Good News of the Christ!
It's incredible what a person will do once they've been deeply indoctrinated i.e. Jonestown, Waco.
