Knock, Knock, Knockin on Heaven's Door

Two well-dressed ladies came to my door today. I was hoping that they were from a Baptist church in the nearby town but to my chagrin they started out with the famous, "Do you think the world is ever gonna get better?"

I recognize this as the infamous starting point for Hell's greatest missionaries also known as JW's.

I usually shut them down and close the door but they were so pleasant, I talked with them.

I immediately brought up the fact that Jesus is God. They assured me that He is the Son of God but a completely separate person and that the Holy Spirit was not a person but the active force of God.

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the word was God." I recited to them as I prayed silently for God to give me the right words to say.

They didn't even respond to this verse, pulling out 1 Cor 14:26-28 to prove that they are separate people. I should have pressed them to explain John 1:1-14 to me.

So if a JW comes to your door, take them to the following Scriptures and press them with them.

John 1:1, 14
John 8:58-59
1 Tim 3:16
Isa 40:1-5

How do you respond to these 'evangelists' when they knock on your door and why?
