Why do you go door to door with a Catholic book and why would you think that you know more about it than the Church that gave it to the world?

I know the quote has been replaced the term "Theocratic Warfare'' ,but I always thought the quote ''Lying for the TRUTH'' was the most telling quote of the WTS biblical assertion of credibility...or lack there of

The WTS assumes alot and then teach that they are the mouthpiece of God.
How do they even know that the bible is the word of God?

so authority, in the case of JWs, comes from zealous and convincing assertion by its members only?

The authority to determine what the Bible including Dan. 4 means was conferred in 1919 after Christ's final temple inspection
That's not an answer about authoritatively interpreting what the scriptures say. Why would someone accept the WTS take on biblical interpretation. With some 40k different forms of Christianity, how do they convince people that they have that authority is my question I guess.

What actually happened AFTER Jesus zoomed up into the clouds and disappeared?
by TerryWalstrom inwhat happened after jesus zoomed up into the sky?for a while, he was expected to return rather quickly.in the meantime, there was the “great commission” and evangelism to be tended to.. the jesus believers were meeting in people's homes.
members of that community would take turns using private homes to gather.
thus, they went house to house.. these footstep tracers of jesus (they called themselves akolouthontes "followers" or some called themselves mathetai or "learners.

The Jesus believers were meeting in people's homes. Members of that community would take turns using private homes to gather. Thus, they went house to house.
These footstep tracers of Jesus (they called themselves Akolouthontes "followers" or some called themselves Mathetai or "learners.") were puzzling out what it meant to follow Jesus. Who was he...really? Was he going to return? Why? When?
Each was curious about the others. Maybe somebody else knew something they didn't? They sought each other out....with questions...
If somebody brought word that another house in another town had Akolouthontes or Mathetai a person would be appointed as an emissary. These emissaries were called Apostles. The job of an apostle was to contact other believers and create a network with them.
This is quite incorrect. There were many who had met Jesus and tried to follow his ways. They were called disciples. They were not a religion, just different people who met Jesus or heard of him and put their limited knowledge of Jesus and his teachings into their lives. Not a bad thing, just not a religion.
Jesus did start a church and commissioned his [12] apostles to start it and promote the growth of His church by doing ALL that Jesus had commanded, not just some of what he commanded. This is known by how each of the apostles started to grow His church with consistently similar teachings and sacraments. It's called history. Door to door? Maybe that happened, but that's not how His church grew. Just saying....cause its's true
