Isaiah the prophet warned the Israelites about false religion saying,

For those who guide this people

are leading them astray;

and those who are guided by them

are brought to confusion.

(Isaiah 9:16)

         As we know, God is not the author of confusion (1 Corinthians 14:33, 40). He will not give any doctrine, contrary to His Word. Therefore, our task is to lovingly correct the J.W. (2 Timothy 2:24-26); and to pray that their eyes will be opened, that they may see Truth (John 14:6); and the One who is our Mediator (1 Timothy 2:5).

         We begin our task, with a challenge. Show the Jehovah’s Witness, their own statements, from their own publications. Below are a few suggestions. These quotes speak for themselves:

We need to examine, not only what we personally believe, but also what is taught by any religious organization which we may be associated. Are its teachings in full harmony with God’s Word, or are they based on traditions of men? If we are lovers of truth, there is nothing to fear from such an examination.

(The Truth That Leads to Eternal Life, 1968, WTBTS, p. 13).

         Also:

It is not religious persecution for an informed person to expose publicly a certain religion as being false, thus allowing persons to see the difference between false religion and true religion.

                  (Watchtower, November 15, 1963, p. 688)

           Let’s also include:

If the message Jehovah’s Witnesses are bringing to the people is true, then it is of greatest importance to mankind. If it is false, then it is the duty of the clergymen and others who support them to come boldly forward and plainly tell the people wherein the message is false. (Golden Age, January 18, 1933, p. 252).

         Our second challenge, is understanding the false teaching within the Watchtower organization, and using God’s Word to reveal Divine truth to the J.W.

         Many of the articles, in the sections below, have links to original Watchtower sources. Feel free to print them out, and put in a notebook with dividers for each category. Please, let’s not resale this material, in any form. The Lord freely gave this vital information to Faith and Reason Forum, so that you may use this material, freely. In turn, pass this treasure trove on to others, freely. (If you have a website, and believe your readers would be interested in this material–simply link them over to this section. Thank you.)

         If you don’t know how to discuss certain J.W. teachings/doctrines to them, it is our hope that the introduction in many of these categories will help you along. Feel free to get in touch with us, if you are having any difficulty, or if you need further clarification. Please understand that when we receive a volume of questions, it may take awhile before we can get back to you.

         In ending, let’s remember that most J.W.’s don’t know about the comments, the controversies, the false teachings from their own Watchtower organization. Oh, to think that God may give us the opportunity to show them truth! What an honor! Let’s try to take that opportunity when it’s knocking at our door.

         If the Jehovah’s Witnesses catch you by surprise (which they usually do), reschedule a more convenient time to talk to them (say, the following week?). Then, contact all your friends to be praying for you, and the J.W.’s, you will be sharing with. That’s not all. You pray too, for not only the opportunity in sharing (Luke 10:2) but for your preparation time, as well (1 Peter 3:15). May the Lord bless your evangelistic efforts.

"Delighting in sharing not only the Gospel of God, but our lives as well."
1 Thessalonians 2:8
