The love of God is with his people Jehovahs Witnesses.

[adambomb312]

and NOT by who knows the most Bible and who has the best arguments supporting the deity of Christ, that the world would know that we are Jesus' followers. Again, I ask, where's the love? A little bit of love will go much further than getting the proverbial Bible smacked over someone's head!

[adambomb312]

and I skim through these comments and I can't help but wonder....where's the love? All of this us vs. them, arguments over words and Bible interpretations and who's right and who's wrong, who's in and who's out...someone even seemed to suggest that Jehovah's Witnesses were "pathetic." Where's the love? Because I don't see it here. Just the usual Bible-thumping and argument presenting, where's the love? After all, Jesus did say that by our love, brothers and sisters,

[adambomb312]

or maybe not.....I'm not sure how tactful that was, I was trying to de-escalate a tense situation with some humor....anway....maybe she couldn't relate, I don't know....I was just introducing myself to this small community and making the church's presence known to serve them in action and prayer, and overall, it was very successful. I was not trying to "convert" I was not trying to "pew pack" and boost numbers, my only agenda was...the love agenda.

I used to live in the rural south and pastor for a very small country church, I was out door-knocking on a Saturday where I once lived and in all irony I door knocked on the door of a Jehovah's Witness [I say that b/c Jehovah's Witnesses are notorious for door knocking is all]. I introduced myself and who I was and she introduced herself and who she was and before she slammed the door in my face, I said "you can probably relate to what I'm doing."

@jnh1225 are you sure about that...JWs are easy picking as far as i know...because they aRE no better that ROBOTS..all they have to say., to teach ,to do and to believe are all premeditated...they are programed to distort the truth of the scriptures...So Pathetic!

[Joelskie20]

@31devildestroyer try to understand the verse in revelation 7::9 therea a great multitude from all races and nations of the earth....NOT JUST THE MERE 144,000...standing before the God and His Lamb...such a shame....thats what the Bible teaches! try and open Your mInd..

@steveparadise1 in Psalms 8:22-24 it says " The LOrd POssessed me at the beginning of His work...Christ was not Created..bec before all things were created Christ is Already at the bossom of the Father JOhn 1:18...and in Psalms 1:7 He was born out of The bosom Of the Father...dont distort the truth of the Scriptures.

[Joelskie20]

@Johnnyprc THAT was very true!

Your passion about this is interesting. How do you reconcile Jesus' statement to his apostles about leaving others who are not against Jesus alone - regardless of correctness of their message. Luke 9
