If you want more detailed information, I recommend that you write to a former Witness and dear friend of mine, Lorri MacGregor at MacGregor Ministries, Box 591, Point Roberts, WA 98281 and ask for a Free information package. It has already brought a profound and positive change to their relationship and we pray daily, as a family for this young man and his family. God would draw his friend to a place where he could be reached and given a loving and gentle witness. I told my son to just be himself with this friend and to keep him in daily prayer. True believers, empowered by the companionship of God, the Holy Spirit have a constant presence of the Lord about them that seems to act like a magnet at times. We need to remember that anyone who denies the divinity of Jesus Christ and carries the heavy burden of a false, religious spirit is going to be going through a lot of highs and lows. Jesus was and should be worshipped (John 20:26-28 Matt. It’s the work of God for man, not a work of man for God (Titus 3:4-6).ħ. Salvation is in the person of Jesus Christ and comes through faith in Him. Jesus is visibly coming again to set up His Kingdom on earth (Matt. Jesus Christ rose bodily from the grave (John 2:20,21 Luke 24:39).ĥ. God, the Holy Spirit, is the third member of the Holy Trinity (Matt. Jesus is no less than God in human flesh (Colossians 2:9).ģ. That God exists in a Trinity of three eternal and co-equal persons: Father (Romans 1:7), Son (John 20:28) and Holy Spirit (Acts 5:3,4 and I John 5:7).Ģ. The conscious Eternal Punishment of the lost.ġ. The necessity of the New Birth for all believers.ġ0. The Promise of Heaven to all believers.ĩ. The Jehovah’s Witnesses do not believe or teach some of the very basic tenets of Christian doctrine. That Jesus cannot be given worship, but only honor as Jehovah’s first creation. That Satan is the author of the doctrine of the Trinity.ġ2. That it must be maintained by energetic works for the Organization until the end when one may merit eternal life on a paradise earth.ġ1. That salvation is found only through the Organization.ġ0. That the majority of Witnesses must remain on earth.ĩ. That Heaven’s doors is open to only 144,000.Ĩ. That the Holy Spirit is only an active force, not the person of God.ħ. That Jesus was only a man when on earth, not the Word Become flesh.Ħ. That Jesus returned invisibly in 1914 (secretly to the Organization)ĥ. That Jesus was not resurrected bodily, but as a spirit being.Ĥ. That Jesus is actually Michael the Archangelģ. That Jesus is a created being/a creature.Ģ. What does the Organization and Watchtower Magazine teach that is in conflict with Orthodox Christianity?ġ. They believe the Watchtower Magazine contains God’s truth, directed by Him, through the Organization. They believe that only the Organization can interpret the Bible as individuals they are unable to do so.ĥ. They believe that to reject the Organization is to reject God.Ĥ.
They have accepted the Organization as God’s sole channel for His truth.ģ. They have accepted the Organization as the Prophet of God.Ģ. There are five important facts to remember about the Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Watchtower Organization.ġ. It’s easier to just close the door and avoid the difficult task of sorting through a maze of confusing doctrines. The reason is simply that it is a far from simple task to witness to a Witness. It’s a rare door that hasn’t felt the knock of the Jehovah’s Witnesses more than once and it’s an even rarer Jehovah’s Witness who has heard the gospel message at one of those doors from the resident Christian. I want to share a little of that with you. I dusted off several of the books on the Witnesses that were there on the library shelf but soon realized that I needed to get down to basics with my son in a format that he could both understand and implement in his own way.

“He has tried to witness to me and I let him know that I’m a committed Christian, but I don’t know how to share my own faith with him so that he would see the difference.” “I’ve become good friends with a classmate who is a Jehovah’s Witness,” he continued.
“Dad,” he quietly began, “I have a real problem at school and I need your help.” I smiled, wrongly thinking we were going to deal with some errant test score. I have to admit my relationship with the Jehovah’s Witnesses had long slipped into that category until one night when my oldest son, Josh, slipped into my study with a worried look.
In the world of ministry to the cults, some things become abstract definitions of things rather than understandings of people.
