I had a couple of JW knock on my door, but I honestly was busy and couldn't engage them like I wanted to. So I told them "Sorry, I'm honestly in the middle of something that I can't take a break from. Besides, I'm a confessional Lutheran, so you'd be WAY outside your weight class." The confused look on their face as I politely wished them an understanding of the true Gospel and closed the door was worth it.
The JWs in my area have changed tactics. It's no longer about who is Jesus, but can the Bible be trusted. I wiped out Sola Scriptura on them before I realized who I was talking with. The panic on that poor lady's face...
Hahaha that's epic. I'm also a Confessional Lutheran and I wish I'd thought of that the last time some Jehovahs Witnesses came by. I think they did realize it over the course of our conversation, though. They complimented me on my knowledge of scripture. I invited them to come back later so we could chat more. They said they would, but they never did.
I remember when I was in college. Jehovah's Witnesses rang the bell and instead of using the verses they are trained to answer, I started teaching Calvinism. Out of nowhere they were in a hurry to leave
I grew up in a nominally christian (word of faith) home and whenever Jehovah Witness came onto our block, we would shut the blinds, turn the tv low, lay on the floor, and not make a sound so they thought we were gone😂😂. My mom would call the people around the the neighborhood and warn them so they could do the same 😂😂
Timely. They came to my door yesterday. Asked if I thought the world was getting better or worse. I answered, "Oh, are you asking me if I'm Amil or Postmil?" Seem to throw them off a bit. 🙂
In my neighbourhood, the Jehovah's Witnesses stand around on street corners with magazine racks, I just walk up to them and explain who Jesus really is and the Gospel.
Thats been a relatively recent change in tactics--basically since Covid. It does make me wonder if they still have to fill out those little timesheets to account for their 'preaching' time.
@@michaelalford7006 in my neighbourhood they have been doing the magazine rack thing for about 10 years now, since it is all apartment buildings, offices and a university, with lots of foot traffic. I heard the JW's stopped using time cards since they get their members doing more without the threat it poses to their status in the cult.
They knocked on my door once. You'd be surprised how fast they panic when they realized they're locked in your house. I kept them there asking questions they couldn't answer for over an hour. That was over 10 years ago and they've never been back
Funny! But I do encourage you to equip yourself to be ready for that situation should it come up again. Just imagine if it was you in their place, and someone who knew the truth was standing so close and never said a word.
We have a couple that lives 5 doors down that are jw. They were at our door the day we were moving in all our big furniture, so we didn't get a chance to sit down with them. They invited us to their hall, but i haven't been able to convince my husband to go into the lions den 😂 Its been 5 years, and every spring, they blanket the town with a copy of a letter/invitation with their return address on it. Ive been tempted a few times to go knock on their door and ask them if they would like to talk about the gospel. Also, i was told by lifelong residents that the city decided to paint a giant American flag on the side of the water tower in response to the jw hall complaining about the flag being anywhere in town and in the schools... the water tower stands at the top of the hill, looking over their kingdom hall.. and it's lit up at night for all to clearly see.
Did that, but when we they refused to read the scriptures they quoted in my Bible's translation or any of my literature we had to end our conversation.
@@clausewitz41_plus_1, I was shortening the "bookshelf" bit....you should see our office (and home in general).....the reality is we have 4+ bookcases full of theology and numerous boxes of theology books...😂🤪 (My hubby's a theology student...so....textbooks not included. I can't keep up with how full our home is with all things theology...😂☺)
Last JWs showed up at my house, I walked out on the porch, he started talking, I straight asked “are you witness or Mormon? I just want to know which book we’re playing with.” We talked and he took some offense when I brought up that we believe in a different Jesus. They’ve not been back as I’ve been labeled as a…duhm duhm dummmmmm…trinitarian.
Years ago I lived in a community where they often came around. I had collected a bunch of free pamphlets from other beliefs that were always out for grabs on the local college campus. I then acted like they were trading cards and would offer the door knockers their choice in exchange for their publication. They would never take one and left quite quickly 😄
I remember one time they asked me what my favorite book of the Bible is, and I said I dunno, maybe Isaiah or the Gospel of John? And I gave the reason that those books really talked about who Jesus is. And one of the Witnesses told me that they don't like to talk about those parts of the Bible! I was perplexed but let it slide. Looking back now that I know that JWs don't believe in Jesus' divinity it makes a lot of sense!
Back when my husband and I were silly young ones some came to his dad's trailer. My husband grabbed his pet snake Speedy put his arm around me and stood at the door. They've never came back after that.
When I was a kid, our local JW would come to the door(my parents knew him)my mother knew him and as a fellow dog love , she would ask him to play with our Old English Sheepdog as he needed a good workout. She would give him a donation when he was done and chalk it up to witnessing.This worked well for several years.
Your funniest one to date! On a serious note, I do want to learn how to capitalize on opportunities to lead these deceived individuals to a right relationship with God through Christ.
Gently and with love. However, the JW organisation has systems in place to keep their folk close. I must give them a ring, none have come lately, I hope they are not ill or something. I had a series of visits from a man and his wife, they were pleasant people, and they may not have been well enough equipped to hear me preaching the Trinity. Then they turned up with a more robust gentleman. He actually and unusually became a touch hostile, and the conversation ended when he asked me straight if I believed that Jesus was God. I gave him John 1. He whipped out his phone to pull up some readings. I just happened to have on my kitchen table an old KJV, an older Bible in French and an NRSV. (It was a complete chance, I had been cleaning my bookcase, they are not normally there) I picked them up and told him not to bother with his phone. Haven't seen them since, it has been about 18 months. Good job I had cleaned the dust of those Bibles. But always remember that the JWs are our neighbours, and we must love them.
The biggest points of difference to highlight, imo, would be the trinity and salvation by faith alone. So make sure you can defend those points thoroughly with scripture. I also know Apologia studios has some “on the street” videos talking to them. So you can get a good idea of their script from those.
Never had a visit yet as my home is off a very busy road and set back 600+ feet...oh well I really want James White living in my driveway. You are a very funny man. God Bless
If James White came to live at my house I wouldn't leave until he did, because I have questions I know he can answer! We would only stop to eat and then get back to our Bible study!
7:am every Saturday morning. No thanks Pastor Foskey, I'm standing with Jesus Christ our lord and saviour. Your statement is true, they ask questions that are very off of the wall. They don't believe in Medical Science, you already know...🙏❤❤
I need that platinum package. Not because I interact with JWs often, but because it would be AMAZING to have James White on hand to talk about theology whenever.
I always think of Paul Washer’s sermon on “Four Points of Walking with God” when he says this about JW’s “That’s why when a Jehovah’s Witness comes to my door and says, ‘I’m a witness,” and I’ll say, ‘No you’re not. He’s had one witness and you’re not it.” 😂
I may not be bold enough in everyday witness but when they come to my door I get to evangelize. First pray for Holy Spirit to give you wisdom( James 5?) I have had a young one bring an elder with her the next week because my question confused her. She made me dig deeper in scripture to confront her confusion. Remember the longer they are at your door the fewer of your neighbors will get their message. Hopefully you plant some seeds. Or you can use my husband's method of just start praising the name of Jesus. He sent one running off crying your God is not my God. We should pray for them. They are usually good people seeking God but confused by heresy.
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. (James 1:5-8)
I had a pair come to my door in college when I was a “nominal Christian”. I didn’t know anything about them. I actually sat and talked with them and the only point they made was that where the NIV says LORD, they said it was really jehova. I said “oh that’s cool” and that was the extent of it. We talked about other things but nothing about doctrine of anything JW specific.
Long before the Rona, there was one regular JW who would come knocking on the front door (along with another, but not as regular) every few months, and there would be a couple minutes of their spiel . . . and then our family's "secret weapon" would enter the discussion: the cat. No, not an attack cat . . . the one regular JW would see the cute cat, and then there would be an even longer discussion on respective pets, and that would be it (for a few months at least, although it's been a few years since they last came-a-knockin).
8 am?! I felt bad enough when I was out knocking on doors at 9:45 on a Saturday. Glad those days are behind me. I do ask anyone who gets a Witness at their door or sees one at a cart, please do not try to just antagonistically prove them wrong. That is not the way to bring them to Christ. And so many of them need Christ.
I had JWs knock on my apartment door yesterday! If only I'd known then about this protection plan. I should've engaged their poor theology but they actually didn't push it on me. Just their app and wanting me to go meet them at a coffee shop. Was kinda surreal to actually see it happen
Yeah, I remember those guys knocking on my door at 8am on a Saturday peddling their Watchtower. It was years ago, and I remember probably being way too polite at the time. At least I had some paper to line a birdcage.
I'll sit and discuss scripture with anybody. I've had some wonderful conversations with Church of Christ pastors who of course use the king james. But specific to this, I remember about 30 years ago, a knocking on the door and opening it up without wearing a shirt and there were 2 ladies from the JW"s who handed me a copy of the watchtower. I handed them a copy of Knights of Columbus magazine and said thank you; no has ever been back in 30 years. I'm pretty sure our residence was put on some do not contact blacklist somewhere. 😂
In the town where I used to live, the Kingdom Hall was about 100 yards from an RC Church. The Church clock would chime the hour and half hour with the notes of that bit of one of the many Marian hymns to which normally you would sing 'Ave, ave ave Maria'. One Saturday on the way to the shops, I was chatting with an older and a younger JW outside the Kingdom Hall when the clock chimed. Long story short, I got the pair of them singing 'Ave Maria',
@@harryfaber it's amazing what be achieved with a little bit of good will. Imagine the impact if someone started making videos of hypothetical inter-denominational meetings and we laughed at ourselves rather that the sectarian Ill will of just a couple decades ago?
SIGN ME UP!! Dr. White is always welcome in my driveway -- and I have a full hook up with sewage dump! But I doubt he will ever dare to drive through blue Oregon into the lion's den of Portland.
Its crazy, dont judge. The phase only lasted a few months but when i started believing in god again after being away from the church, i started getting into JW theology. It took me about 4 months to discover the trurh about the new world translation and i never looked back. What got me was reading an interview with the translators of the NIV. They were answering a question about why they replaced the word Jehovah with lord so many times. The response was…. “Well if our bible said jehovah is my shepherd i shall not want, nobody would buy it” The witnesses didnt show me that, just related to a search i was doing on the tetragrammaton. So i went to the closest kingdom hall and knocked on their door. When they opened i said. “Can i get a witness!?” Lol. They were such nice people but completely fooled by the watchtower society.
To be clear here, the package deals are more of an on-call service package more than insurance. Insurance would be more like 100,000 in coverage in case a JW slips on your front doormat that depicts the Sola's. But in either case, I'll take two.
Hey Pastor Kieth, I was wondering about a game I was playing called Ghost of Tsushima, there's no nudity, no religious blasphemes such as no saying "oh my ---". However, they do use words like d-mn, a-s, and b-stard sometimes. In addition, it does take place in feudal Japan, as such their is some Eastern religion. I guess what would you think??
I’m not a gamer, but I know that when it comes to movies I try to limit how much bad language I have to hear. That’s why I use a service called HolyMolymedia which sells edited DVDs. 📀 On the other hand, it sounds fairly tame since you said there is no nudity or blasphemy. I would need more info to give a solid yes or no for me, but as you stated it would probably be ok
@@kaleblam5084 I take a different view to Pastor Kieth. If a game you play makes you wonder if it is acceptable to the point that you feel a need to ask a pastor, then the answer is probably 'no'. Ask yourself what this game brings to your life, and what it takes away from your life. Perhaps wonder if there was a better use for your time. Certainly ask yourself how much time you spend playing that game. A test we sometimes suggest for activities goes something like this. Imagine you are in a room with a group of friends, you are telling a joke. Just as you are getting near the punch line, your grandmother, or your minister or maybe an elderly Catholic priest walks in the room. If you suddenly feel that you cannot say the punch line to your grandma, your minister or a priest, you shouldn't have been saying it to your friends
Unfortunately, the only people I have been getting at my door are solar panel and security system sales reps. What I wouldn't do, to talk to JW. At least it wouldn't money, and ita topic I actually know something about.
If they tell you that Colossians 1:15 says that Jesus is a created being, tell them that "firstborn" means he has all of the rights and privileges of the firstborn.
In his humanity, Jesus is a created being. However, His Person is the Second Person of the Holy Trinity. It's called the Hypostatic Union. Most evangelicals need some basic theology to be effective witnesses. I hear so much heretical nonsense coming out of the mouths of evangelicals because they have no idea what they're talking about.
I prefer to go on to vs 16-17. The logic breaks down if He was created and "by him all things were created." if He was created, how did he create all things. By definition, he would be included in "all things" if He were a created being.
@@rbonette1 For the right Faith is that we believe and confess: that our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is God and Man; God, of the Substance of the Father, begotten before the worlds: and Man, of the Substance of his Mother, born in the world; Perfect God, and Perfect Man: of a reasonable soul and human flesh subsisting; Equal to the Father, as touching his Godhead: and inferior to the Father, as touching his Manhood. Who although he be God and Man: yet he is not two, but one Christ; One, not by conversion of the Godhead into flesh: but by taking of the Manhood into God; One altogether, not by confusion of Substance: but by unity of Person. For as the reasonable soul and flesh is one man: so God and Man is one Christ.
An evangelist preaches the Gospel to lost people and plants churches. At least, that is what my denomination does. (Vanguard Presbyterian Church) The evangelists are ordained specifically for that ministry
“And you know, it’s happened again: heresy has come to the door.”
That’s a hilarious line.
Loved this line!!!
Keith, my Aunt became a JW. It was truly an interesting experience.
I had a couple of JW knock on my door, but I honestly was busy and couldn't engage them like I wanted to.

SIGN ME UP!
I miss our Witnesses. They stopped coming to our neighborhood during Covid. Now we get a random handwritten letter in the mail from them.
They started leaving messages on my answering machine.
Make one for us Mormons too!
Around here they are mailing conversion letters instead of coming to the door.
When he said “Jay Dub-YUH” I lost it 😂
SIGN ME UP!! Dr. White is always welcome in my driveway -- and I have a full hook up with sewage dump! But I doubt he will ever dare to drive through blue Oregon into the lion's den of Portland.
Same hook up but along his route. I'd ply him with coffee and just let him talk til dawn.
Where was this last Saturday??? 😂 Seriously, they were on my doorstep!
I'd hate to see the bill for that platinum package unless Dr. White is accepting dark chocolate covered almonds and Cane's chicken 🙄
Sounds like a better approach than Pittsburgh Dad's in his video _Dad Hiding from Jehovah's Witnesses._
Golly gracious that’s funny 😂
Its crazy, dont judge. The phase only lasted a few months but when i started believing in god again after being away from the church, i started getting into JW theology. It took me about 4 months to discover the trurh about the new world translation and i never looked back. What got me was reading an interview with the translators of the NIV.
They were answering a question about why they replaced the word Jehovah with lord so many times. The response was…. “Well if our bible said jehovah is my shepherd i shall not want, nobody would buy it”
The witnesses didnt show me that, just related to a search i was doing on the tetragrammaton. So i went to the closest kingdom hall and knocked on their door. When they opened i said. “Can i get a witness!?” Lol. They were such nice people but completely fooled by the watchtower society.
To be clear here, the package deals are more of an on-call service package more than insurance. Insurance would be more like 100,000 in coverage in case a JW slips on your front doormat that depicts the Sola's. But in either case, I'll take two.
I live in Mo and have tones of Mormons. Do you have a package that covers for Mormons?
I'm in. I'll take the James White package. 😂
A couple of big boisterous hunting dawgs deters them and burglars too 😅
GOD bless.. i have the 5th wheel already .. come on out james lol
Do you have an LDS version?
If you change James White for Trent Horn, I'd be interested.
Lol. I was wondering what my you left out James. Where can I sign up?
Funny
Do one about Mormons and other cults
Hey Pastor Kieth, I was wondering about a game I was playing called Ghost of Tsushima, there's no nudity, no religious blasphemes such as no saying "oh my ---". However, they do use words like d-mn, a-s, and b-stard sometimes. In addition, it does take place in feudal Japan, as such their is some Eastern religion. I guess what would you think??
I’m not a gamer, but I know that when it comes to movies I try to limit how much bad language I have to hear. That’s why I use a service called HolyMolymedia which sells edited DVDs. 📀
On the other hand, it sounds fairly tame since you said there is no nudity or blasphemy. I would need more info to give a solid yes or no for me, but as you stated it would probably be ok
@@ConversationswithaCalvinist thanks
@@kaleblam5084 I take a different view to Pastor Kieth. If a game you play makes you wonder if it is acceptable to the point that you feel a need to ask a pastor, then the answer is probably 'no'. Ask yourself what this game brings to your life, and what it takes away from your life. Perhaps wonder if there was a better use for your time. Certainly ask yourself how much time you spend playing that game.
A test we sometimes suggest for activities goes something like this. Imagine you are in a room with a group of friends, you are telling a joke. Just as you are getting near the punch line, your grandmother, or your minister or maybe an elderly Catholic priest walks in the room. If you suddenly feel that you cannot say the punch line to your grandma, your minister or a priest, you shouldn't have been saying it to your friends
@@harryfaber I see what you’re saying
Unfortunately, the only people I have been getting at my door are solar panel and security system sales reps. What I wouldn't do, to talk to JW. At least it wouldn't money, and ita topic I actually know something about.
😂😂😂😂
I want to ask them , if you knew I was was going to die today , what would be your message to me?
I have zero problem with Christianity as long as its not cornbread Copeland version
If they tell you that Colossians 1:15 says that Jesus is a created being, tell them that "firstborn" means he has all of the rights and privileges of the firstborn.
In his humanity, Jesus is a created being. However, His Person is the Second Person of the Holy Trinity. It's called the Hypostatic Union. Most evangelicals need some basic theology to be effective witnesses. I hear so much heretical nonsense coming out of the mouths of evangelicals because they have no idea what they're talking about.
@@aLadNamedNathanYou are the heretic. Jesus is not created, or he would not be equal with God.
What does that even mean?
I prefer to go on to vs 16-17. The logic breaks down if He was created and "by him all things were created." if He was created, how did he create all things. By definition, he would be included in "all things" if He were a created being.

For the right Faith is that we believe and confess: that our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is God and Man;
God, of the Substance of the Father, begotten before the worlds: and Man, of the Substance of his Mother, born in the world;
Perfect God, and Perfect Man: of a reasonable soul and human flesh subsisting;
Equal to the Father, as touching his Godhead: and inferior to the Father, as touching his Manhood.
Who although he be God and Man: yet he is not two, but one Christ;
One, not by conversion of the Godhead into flesh: but by taking of the Manhood into God;
One altogether, not by confusion of Substance: but by unity of Person.
For as the reasonable soul and flesh is one man: so God and Man is one Christ.
Question: what exactly is an evangelist and are there any active today?
An evangelist preaches the Gospel to lost people and plants churches. At least, that is what my denomination does. (Vanguard Presbyterian Church) The evangelists are ordained specifically for that ministry

If you know your Bible it's a lot of fun showing them just how bad their doctrine is.
