The one conspiracy the Jehovah's Witnesses SHOULD believe is that their leaders are misleading them. But, if they aren't allowed to research material that isn't approved by their leaders and see everyone around them as pagan, it is hard for them to see it.

@@leonardwitucke1 That's the best thing you can do. Over the years I was most impacted by real Christians who knew the true Gospel and had a real relationship with Jesus. They would share scriptures they found encouraging, they would share answered prayers and how God saw them through trials. This blows away JWs on the inside because they are taught that Christians are misled and don't have "the Truth", and if they don't have "The Truth" how could their relationship with God be real, how could their joy be real joy, and that God most likely is not answering their prayers - unless of course they are praying to know "Jehovah God", meaning they are ready to be led to Jehovah's people - aka Jehovah's Witnesses. They would NEVER admit they see you that way - never, but they do. It is what they are taught. It is the view the inside culture fosters. Sharing aspects of your Christian life, walk, joy, faith, trials & triumphs without any sense of coming across that you are witnessing to them plants a seed. I can tell you that seed does not go away. It will lay there and the next Christian to do the same plants another seed, and so on. The Holy Spirit now has something to water and shine upon. It will take time, but it is powerful. It will mess with what they are being taught by Watchtower like nothing else. So you are on the right track - keep it up!! God's blessings to you! 🙏 ❤️

If you are called MADE AND CREATED AND GIVEN LIFE, and NEVER CALLED in the BIBLE as Creator or Maker , then you are A CREATION. ALL FROM THE BIBLE From the Lord was this (this is referring to the chief cornerstone who is Jesus) , the word WAS is egeneto (made or came into being) - Matthew 21:42 and the exact Greek word used in John 1:3 - MADE, egeneto (came into being) - JESUS WAS MADE/CAME INTO BEING FROM THE FATHER , yes, Jesus was MADE/CREATED!, See also Acts 2:36, Heb 1:5, 1 john 5 Jesus in FACT mentioned the FATHER IS GREATER than I am.

I think one of the best pieces of advice I've gotten from watching testimonies from former JWs, Mormons, Muslims etc is that you need to build a good relationship with them. Rather than coming out "guns blazing" at the start. You want to get them to a place where they're receptive to what you have to say. So you take your time and reach them where they are. While, they have their own agenda going door to door and calling you - its the perfect opportunity to build a bridge to a person otherwise socially/mentally isolated.

As a Christian i know from reading the Bible that all these mainstream holidays he just mentioned are in fact pagan. The old testament gives detail to the 7 holidays we observe, Jesus also observed them. None of the holidays he listed are Christian. Military service requires pledging allegiance to the country youre serving and potentially dying for that country. As a Christian my allegiance is to Jesus Christ alone. I am only willing to die and live for Him.

@@bednar1991 THe bible records birthdays and people died. Birthdays are a form of worship for the individual and only God deserves worship through Jesus Christ. Think about how selfish birthdays can become for people.....children look forward to them because they're groomed to believe the day is all about them and they are given presents simply based on winning the sperm lottery. That is not what Christ taught. He taught us to be "self sacrificing". That means putting others first. When people defend the right for others to honor only them because they happened to be conceived on a particular date, they are turning their backs on Christ's teachings. That is why they, Jehovah's witnesses, do not celebrate birthdays. I have not been a JW for a decade now. I still find birthdays repugnant due to how selfish the person who's birthday it is can act. It is not humble to expect others to celebrate your by chance existence if we are all sinners. If you are happy someone is alive....why not buy them a gift at random throughout the year to show them you are appreciative they are in your life? There is more happiness in giving than receiving. There is no happiness in compulsory gift giving. It is merely a charade.

@@the.everyday.joe. I mean, we could argue about theology like the trinity, but I think describing the LDS church as a "socially insulated community" at least in the same way as JW is disingenuous (except maybe I'm Utah, we'd probably agree there). The LDS church encourages members to be outgoing and active in their community, especially outside of church and church activities. And practices like shunning and disassociating are not official practices of the LDS church (like it is for JW as well as some other Christian churches), and is not condoned by Church policy or leaders. I can see how you could draw a parallel to being directed to a central church website, but in general that does make sense. If you want to learn about a religion, or anything else really, it makes sense to go to the source. If JW's are actually told not to Google their own church, then that's not really comparable to the LDS church. Of course no church is going to encourage you to look up anti material about them, but the LDS church doesn't discourage research, in fact it's usually encouraged. But you said you used to be a member, and idk your exact experiences and circumstances. You could've been raised in Utah, and that would explain a lot. But it seems to me like there might be a confusion of culture vs policy at play here. And sorry for any negative experiences you attribute to the LDS church, I hope those that have wronged you will repent.

@@Azravald I was actually in a less stressful ward and I actually learned more about the faulty foundation of the church after I left. My experience though still was like many who leave. There are certain teachings, practices, traditions and unspoken rules that you catch on to that I never really bought into. It felt like lies being told as truth. But in learning this stuff I reflected on my time there. Yes Mormons put themselves out there but they are quick to call something or someone anti Mormon if they point out something strange in their history/theology and they will tell you you should avoid it. Learning about what the church was hiding (not glancing over) or at least trying keep buried opened my eyes to a lot of things. My change in perspective helped me realize a lot of the failures of their teachings and how they went against what Biblical scripture said. They tell you (not force you) to stay away from anything that goes against Mormon beliefs. I don’t make this argument based on my own experience alone. There are a lot of commonalities all over the US and the rest of the world. So I don’t think LDS and JW are the exact same because theology and publicly they are very different but they fall into the same failures, lies and tricks like Islam, 7 day adventists, gnostic believers and etc. Different names and very different organizations but ultimately when you strip them down to the core of what they are LDS, JW and others are this post sums them up pretty well

That's why if you told me you were christian it wouldn't pretty much matter to me if you weren't truly set apart, get what I mean? I'll also say that the Bible's word should always go above man's commentary, and i don't think Mike can see the full picture of what's going on if he hasn't been from where the Lord brought me out. To place witchcraft on people successfully the person needs to give a way of opening such as through certain holidays like Christmas. I can go deeper into this and give you sources but if you think about it there is a way bigger reason for why God said that you cannot worship him through pagan customs by "christianizing" them which is what they did.

Their guidance is to be conscious of what you watch because it can contaminate your thinking and heart. Something I think more people should be doing in this age of absolute garbage entertainment. 2: Their kids can be friends with whomever their parents feel are ok just like any other person on this planet. However, if you think a family is shitty.....would you let your kid hang out with theirs? Probably not. Nothing wrong with making sure your child is associating with people you approve of. I fail to see how this is your business or your concern. They use wrapping paper all the time. You're smoking some good stuff at this point and completely wrong.

I've listened to you for years and my new son-in-law is a worship pastor at a non-denominational church. I also agree that the celebration of Christmas and Easter have Pagan origins. There is nowhere in the Bible where it tells us to celebrate these. People use the phrase, what would Jesus do, and I don't think he would celebrate either of these. I believe Christians are supposed to celebrate the festivals, which are not Jewish feasts, but rather God's festivals that are designed for everyone. I come under condemnation for this, but people really need to open their eyes and consider it. Many are awakening to this now, and I think it will be part of a forthcoming Revival.

I will always celebrate these Christian holidays as Jesus birth and resurrection. Just because someone else somewhere also celebrated a certain time of year for other things does not make my celebration of Jesus pagan. The JW also refuse to celebrate birthdays because the only birthday in the Bible John the Baptist got his head chopped off. No one is getting their head chopped off at my child’s birthday celebration. I have nothing to do with what pagan rulers did thousands of years ago. If that is the reasoning then there are so many things you’ll have to stop doing. Do you wear jeans? Pagans do. Better stop that. Do you drive a car? Pagans do that. Better stop. Ancient pagans celebrated their anniversary of married. Gasp. No anniversary for you. Why don’t you accept that Christian’s REDEEMED these pagan times of year by celebrating the Christ instead of allowing what pagans used to do to color what Christian’s have done for centuries?

@@ryanrevland4333 It depends on which temple service period Zechariah was working when he was told his wife would bear child. If it was his normal service, John the Baptist would have been born in the Spring, putting Jesus' birth in the Fall. If it was the latter service, that would place John as a summer baby, making Jesus a Winter baby. There was also a conceit at the time that all true prophets of God would die on the same day they were conceived, again placing Jesus' birth in the Wintertime. Regardless, the entire calendar has been yellowed by the dogpiss of pagan holidays. If Christmas hadn't been two weeks too near to Saturnalia, it would have been two weeks too near to Lupercalia. Easter is Pascha with a Germanic name.

Specific prayers and possibly decrees made before the throne of God (Luke 18) are required to move /remove the blockage and bring God's will to fruition. But one thing, you may need to fast for them. You can't intellectually argue with them because that's the stronghold ... it on their mind. Ask God to bring it down and fulfill His purpose in their life. God from his throne, through his Holy Spirit and kingdom power must do the work ... and give you the anointing to speak a word that breaks through. God knows the way and timing. Just pray and fast and yield to the Lord. Lift her up to God's throne in prayer. Put it in God's hands.

So, as a JW, I could respond to each of these, but the first point always confuses me a bit. People tend to start by saying we're bad because we're too invasive by offering to study the bible with literally anyone willing to talk (with general respect). But when someone expresses that they want to be left alone, so we respect their decision and try to avoid bothering them... They don't see us anymore and presume if THEY don't see us, we must be an isolated insular cult, cut off from the outside world and prohibited by our conspiratorial culty cult leaders from contact with the outside world. ... Because we're still out here talking to people. You requesting us leave you alone isn't our conspiracy not to talk to you. Would you like to talk? Cool, we're down. No? That's totally fine, let us know if you change your mind.

I own an 1871 Version and EVERYWHERE the Deity of Christ is mentioned it is the same as all the modern Versions we have today. Even NON-Christian Greek Grammarian's say you cannot Possibly Interpret it the way they do. There was No-one Qualified in their Organization to Translate the Greek Text.

He walked straight into the synagogue and stirred stuff up. So, maybe I am completely wrong, and you should be here. If that is the case, don't be discouraged by people's response.

When Jesus explained several times to the Pharisees that He is the Son of God and is equal with God the Father only choosing to submit and do His Father's will that wad Him not claiming to be God in the flesh as Jeremiah and Isaiah had said the Messiah would be? When Jesus forgave sins and rose Himself from the dead, He wasn't claiming to be God manifested in the flesh? Consider what took place and wonder why He would be crucified for blasphemy if Jesus were not God and were merely Michael the archangel(which there are more than one of). I ask this in love and hope that you will listen. One must trust in Jesus alone for salvation and recognize that He is God in the flesh. That is part of the gospel.

Forgiveness of sins is the most important. As an example, if I punch Dave in the face and I tell Bob I'm sorry will he forgive me, does Bob have the power or authority to forgive me? No. Only He who we sin against, Yahweh, has the power to forgive sins. Hear oh Israel, the Lord our God is One.

@@Azravald i appreciate your response , I was referring to John 1:1, where John says "the Word was God" however the New world translation says "the Word was a god" . Do you see the big difference there? And if you go down a bit farther in John you will see that "the Word became flesh and dwelt among us" Jesus was God in the flesh. Thanks for your time brother

Rightfully so, where in the Bible does it discuss Halloween? Why should we celebrate such a dark and evil celebration. The Bible says light and darkness don’t share. What does Christ have in common with the devil? As far as Christmas, yes the traditions in which this culture upholds is not biblical. Between Santa, elves, presents and the tree where do you find that in the Bible? If you want to celebrate Jesus’ birth celebrate Sukkot. All this added nonsense is to please the flesh and world. Easter is not observed accurately nor at the correct time of year. If you want to celebrate His resurrection, observe Passover. People ought to stop trying to serve God in a way that is displeasing to Him. To love Him is to keep His commands - how can you use such a secular and carnal observation for Him? Who cares what we prefer it’s what God desires

My husband and I invited a married Jehovah Witness couple into our home for a weekly bible study for several months. On many occasions, the study became very heated because we would not allow them to totally control the study as they normally do,but we would share scriptures on what we believed as Christians. I believe the study helped each of us to at least understand what the other believed a little clearer. They moved out of town, but we actually became friends with them and kept in touch.
