WHAT DO JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES BELIEVE ABOUT THE RANSOM SACRIFICE AND PERSONAL SINS?

“I have been discussing my faith with a Jehovah’s Witness and I ran across your website article, “FIVE QUESTIONS LEADING JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES TO JESUS - PRESENTING THE GOSPEL.” I also listened to Arnold Hoffman’s audio message, “A Few Effective Methods in Witnessing to Jehovah’s Witnesses” and I have a question. Is it true that Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that Jesus only died for our Adamic sin, not all of our sin? If this is true, can you help me find the Watchtower literature that says Jesus only paid for Adamic sin? My Jehovah’s Witness friend says that he believes Jesus died for our sins, so I don’t understand why your website says they don’t believe that. Your answer will be a great help.”

WHAT DO JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES BELIEVE ABOUT PHYSICAL HEALING?

I have a sister who I rarely see who has been a Jehovah’s Witness for over 35 years. Last week, I was visiting another sister and my Jehovah’s Witness sister showed up, much to my surprise and delight. In a conversation with about ten of our family members, I said something about how I had been healed of Multiple Sclerosis, but this was received with a quick glare from my Jehovah’s Witness sister. My church family, my husband and I had been praying for a long time for my healing. I had taken a shot every day to keep the symptoms at bay, until God miraculously healed me. I stopped taking my shots, and not only have the daily symptoms gone away, but my physical abilities that the disease had robbed me of have now returned. I can now taste and smell, my short-term memory has improved, and I now have the ability to walk farther than ten feet without having to sit and rest. Why did my sister react when she heard about my healing? Someone told me that Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that healing is from Satan. Is this true? Has the Watchtower ever addressed this issue? I have plenty of Scripture from the Bible on healing, but what are they being told?

WHY DO JEHOVAH’S WITNESS KINGDOM HALLS NOT HAVE WINDOWS?

"As I’ve been driving across the United States, I’ve noticed a bunch of Kingdom Halls of Jehovah’s Witnesses that do not have windows. Most of the Christian churches have windows. So, why don’t Jehovah’s Witnesses have them? Is it to keep their people from looking out the windows while they are trying to brainwash them? Is it to keep others from looking in and observing their meetings?"

Your website is crucial in my witnessing efforts!

“Your website is crucial in my witnessing efforts to Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses. I cannot get the Mormons to come back anymore, but I had my first study with the Jehovah’s Witnesses today. ...One has been in the Society for over 50 years!!! I was very intimidated by this. ...But the thing that really got them squirming in their seats today were the questions I got off your website regarding the use of the Divine Name. It was almost as if they had never heard questions like this before. ...thank you so much for what you do. God has used your talents in such a wonderful way to bring glory and honor to our King Jesus Christ.”

I appreciate the loving tone of your website...

“I need to say thank you so much to the people involved in this website! I am a Christian and have been in contact with a Jehovah's Witness for several months, and at the beginning I was very unfamiliar with Jehovah's Witness teachings. Your website has helped me tremendously. I feel much better acquainted with Jehovah's Witness teachings and able to question her on her beliefs, and point her to the Truth of Jesus in the Bible. I enjoy the thoughtful, loving tone your website has in pointing out the error of the Watchtower organization, and the error of Jehovah's Witness beliefs.”

Thanks for providing the documentation to back up what you're saying.

“I recently became acquainted with a girl who was raised as a Jehovah’s Witness, and I am a solid evangelical Christian. Despite our differences, we have become good friends ...I have had the hardest time talking to her about my concerns regarding the Watchtower because I understood so little about it. In my search for resources online, it is so refreshing to find a website that is not slanderous or based on opinion, but that simply provides the facts. Thanks for providing documentation to back up what you're saying. This is legitimate journalism and it has been incredibly useful to me.”

I Feel So Much Better Equipped!

“I just wanted to say thanks for the tremendous amount of effort it must have taken to put together this website. I am a Christian who has been visited by Jehovah’s Witnesses for about 7-8 years… I was online …when I came across your site. Having found what I was looking for, I continued on with browsing your site. There is so much useful information here! Recently, one of the young Witnesses that had previously come to my door ...came back to my door alone. … After reading many pages on your site, I feel so much better equipped to speak with her. …I hope to show her the joy that is in the freedom we have in Christ.”
