Hello!
I'm new here :-)
I was just wondering. Is there some sort of doctrine, or belief, principle, rule or whatever, that says that Jehovah's Witnesses, when asked, must confirm that they're Jehovah's Witnesses? (One possible basis for such a rule, that comes to mind, is the bit about Peter denying Jesus three times before the cock crowed.)
For example, let's suppose I suspected that someone I sort of knew was a Jehovah's Witness, and that I wanted to know whether or not they actually were. I could ask, of course. If I was to ask, "Are you a Jehovah's Witness?", and if they actually were a Jehovah's Witness, would they be obliged to tell me that they are? Or might they, as a matter of "theocratic war strategy" (or whatever), "hide the truth" from me? Or might they, of course, just decline to answer?
:-)
