Jehovah's Witnesses are well-known for their attempts at evangelism, and have taken to the task of finding new members among the migrants in Denmark, the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten reported.

The newspaper referred to the small Danish town of Flauenskjold, where about 22 refugees currently reside; some of them are reportedly already contacting members from a local branch of Jehovah's Witnesses.

The Jyllands-Posten quoted locals as saying that they had the impression that Jehovah's Witnesses are making special tours of the refugee centers in order to recruit future followers there.

In a move that reflected their ever-increasing clout in Denmark, the Jehovah's Witnesses launched an Arabic language speaking group in the country two years ago, in February 2013.

The past few years have seen more migrants in Denmark become Jehovah's Witnesses, with the group's press secretary

Dag-Erik Kristoffersen repeatedly claiming that refugees are not being forced to join. This allegation, however, was rejected

by refugee center head Nina Svendsen, according to the newspaper Jyllands-Posten.

Jehovah's Witnesses are evangelical millenarians who believe that the destruction of the current world as we know it in the

iblical Battle of Armageddon is imminent, and that the establishment of God's kingdom over the Earth is the only solution for all problems faced by humanity.

Some thirty Syrian refugees from different camps seeking asylum hold banners outside the Swedish Embassy in Copenhagen, Denmark on Wednesday, Sept. 26, 2012.

Denmark to Settle Migrants Outside Major Cities

The group, which claims a worldwide membership of more than 8.2 million adherents, has more than

once been harshly criticized over issues surrounding their translation of the Bible, doctrines, their handling

of sexual abuse cases, and the alleged coercion of members.

Several cases involving Jehovah's Witnesses have been heard by Supreme Courts all across the world.

The cases are, as a rule, related to their right to practice their religion, displays of patriotism and military service

, as well as blood transfusions, which nearly all Jehovah's Witnesses refuse. They may find an unwelcome reception

among dedicated Muslims, who see apostasy, the act of converting to another religion, as an abhorrent sin which many

who advocate Sharia Law believe should be punishable by death.

Toasting is Pagan - How many contradictions can fit in 2 pages, I found 5?

by jwfacts in

the watchtower 2007 feb 15 pp.30-31 explains why jehovah's witnesses are not to toast.

what is astounding is that for each point they then go on an explain why the point is irrelevant, yet still conclude toasting is wrong.

what did people think when reading this?

Give Barbara and Trey Bundy some assistance!

by Atlantis in

http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5975535444295680/trey-bundy-one-year-reporting-jw-child-abuse-your-comments-please i learned from trey bundy last year that if cir receives positive comments about their articles on jws, they are inclined to do more.

it seems to me if we had better response by posters to the above thread which i would send trey a link to, we might see more articles.

i do know that trey has another jw article in the pipeline, but the more the better.
