Jehovah’s witnessed studied the Bible with me in the privacy of my home.
They did not charge me anything and suggested that I use my own Bible.
I was encouraged to research what I was learning and not just believe everything that was said. Unfortunately as a religion they are lied about and misunderstood by the churches of Christendom. At the Kingdom Hall their are no collections taken which was a change from other churches. Religion should teach us tolerance and how to keep an open mind, but most do not.
Jehovah’s Witnesses have a bad rep because when they knock on doors and people say they aren’t interested, the JWs won’t leave them alone. When a homeowner tells a Jehovah’s Witness to leave, that they aren’t interested in listening to their spiel, that they are happy in their own church, that they don’t want a copy of Watchtower or any other literature or any invitations to the local Kingdom Hall, or to have Bible studies in their home, the Jehovah’s Witnesses are to leave right then instead of pressing and intruding on the homeowner’s privacy. “No”
means “No.” I don’t care what church a person belongs to.
I’ve had plenty of negative experiences with JWs from my overhearing a plan by 3 female JWs to force their way into my apartment when I opened the door to spending 2 and a half hrs in heat and humidity one summer because I wasn’t about to let the JWs into my home.
I had just come home from shopping and knew that if I let them in, they’d never leave. That 2 and a half hours was spent with them trying to tell me that all that was important was that Jesus died. They didn’t want to hear about His Glorious Resurrection or anything else.
Had one of my neighbors been home, I’d have had them call the police to get them off my property. It was unusual that no one in the neighborhood was home. Obviously, God wanted me to share the Truth with them because they finally saw they weren’t going to convert me. I later called the local Kingdom Hall to keep anyone who was a Jehovah’s Witness from coming to my door again.
