Role Playing Jehovah’s Witnesses And The Bodily Resurrection of Jesus Christ

August 19, 2013 11:44 am / 14 Comments /

I’ll be teaching about Jehovah’s Witnesses tonight at Community Bible Church in San Antonio, Texas. For the first 15 minutes or so, I will be role playing as a Jehovah’s Witness and attacking the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ. I will then spend the rest of the class time correcting the errors of the Watchtower.

We will be meeting in room C130 from 7:00 to 8:30. Dinner is available at 6:30 for 5$ if you have it. If not, please join us anyway.

Before you ask, no, the class will not be streamed or recorded. We are working towards being able to do that in the future though.

Discussing New Light With A Jehovah’s Witness Elder

August 8, 2013 5:04 pm / 59 Comments /

The Watchtower changes it doctrine so frequently, they had to come up with a doctrine to justify it. These changes are called “New Light.”

Our meeting started with a BANG and was full throttle for an hour and a half. Before I get into that, I want to explain how I arranged for us to be speaking about this topic today. If you read lasts week’s post, you saw how I took advantage of the opportunity to get into the study edition of the July 15, 2013 edition of the Watchtower magazine. Yesterday I read through the articles that pertained to the doctrinal change I have known about for months. After I read them all, I sent a text message to my elder friend. Here is our text conversation. Read More →

Four Weeks Of Teaching about Jehovah’s Witnesses

Two Jehovah’s Witnesses are walking down a narrow alley in the inner-city. They come face to face with two Mormon missionaries. The alley is so narrow that one pair will have to allow the other pair to pass. One of the two Mormon missionaries puffs out his chest and declares, “We will not step aside for false teachers.” The Jehovah’s Witnesses in unison both step aside and reply, “We will.” Read More →

Discussing Bereans With a Jehovah’s Witness Elder

I pulled a fast one. After the normal, half-hour of getting caught up with each other, my Jehovah’s Witness elder friend asked if my iPad was fully charged. He wanted to show me that the Watchtower magazines are on the JW.org web site. I already knew that, but I didn’t interrupt because I was hoping he would do something that I could use later. We navigated to the study edition magazine section because he wanted to show me that they had color pictures. He clicked on August 1st 2013 edition and I exclaimed, “You can’t do that!” Read More →

Resuming My Meetings With A Jehovah’s Witness Elder

July 22, 2013 3:16 pm / 11 Comments /

I met with My Jehovah’s Witness buddy for the first time in more than a month. We had not met for so long because I was on a mission trip in Utah and then he was on vacation. It was good to see him again and after a half hour of catching up with each other, we jumped right back into our study. This meeting was different than all of our previous meetings because this time, he brought his son. I immediately recognized that the dynamic change could be fatal to our discussion so I had to be careful. The questions I ask are not easy questions and we sometimes get pretty deep into our discussions. No man wants to be viewed as “losing in a discussion” in front of his son (JW#2). Read More →
