Originally posted by menace71As has been explained and shown by scripture, we are doing a couple diffrent things by going to all the doors we can earthwide. First is the obvious, we are doing just as Jesus did and told us all to do. Matt 24th and 28th chapters.
While I'm conflicted with the JW's doctrinally but imagine if mainstream Western Christianity had the same zeal as the JW's do? (I know I'm stereotyping a bit here) but R.C. does have a point about for example the Church down the street when have they ever come and knocked on my door? It's in my neighborhood I can walk to them. I've had JW's knock here seve ...[text shortened]... I don't open to spare them and myself arguing LOL but it's case and point.

The accomplishment that we hope to happen is the education that we share from the Bible and in turn we hope that "seed" we plant finds a good heart and then Jehovah makes it grow within their hearts. Most churches do not do this spiritual seeeding work that we are told to do.
It's a really simple process but one that is needed to find those people looking for a better future and one that they will learn how to spiritually and physically survive. And then have a chance to go thru that "narrow gate" to life.
The Bible says this, not something we're making up.
-Removed-The issue is the example I just gave. Lets focus on that issue.
We view our life as in the same danger in the end result of someone wanting to kill us. Not physically in the example I gave but spiritually and that would in turn greatly jeopardize our life in the future if we allow ourselves to be influanced by someone who has turned their back on Jehovah.
It is such a serious offence by God that it carried a death penilty at one time.
So we are to remain clean spiritually and would refuse to associate with one who has turned against our God.
Not our idea but a command for God in the Bible............
-Removed-Oh really? Who exactly are they as I've never had my door knocked on except once by two Morman kids.
I've lived in at least 10 different states, I'm 55 years old and have never even seen anyone from any church out going door to door except the rare Mormon. So please explain this phenomenom to me.....

Originally posted by galveston75I live 10 minutes walk from a Kingdom Hall, in the (almost) 2 years i have lived here no JW has ever knocked on my door. One once sneaked up and slid a leaflet onto my porch, i was in and the door was open but he didn't say hello. A few weeks ago i had two non-denominational Christians knock on my door for a chat.
I want the name of those churches and as I said I know for a fact they don't go DOOR to DOOR except to ask for $$$.
Tell me their names so I can check it out and prove to you that no churches do that...
If you dare?
