Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@KUSTM-BRAND says : One recognizes a similar spirit. What she says speaks to the witness one recieves from the Living Language we all believers share.>> <<@elbertsorrell8394 says : These 5 tips are what I have tried to teach Christians for years. I am an ex-Mormon. My biggest challenge with Christians is that they don't know WHY they believe what they do & how to defend it. They also don't really care enough to learn how to defend their own faith. Some "Christians" are no better off than a Witness! These "Christians" have simply accepted something they have been taught without knowing why it's true. Most Witnesses & Mormons are better equipped than Christians. It's sad!>> <<@karlmason6145 says : So no proof whatsoever.>> <<@Odo-so8pj says : Almost got through to the guy but the woman cut him off. Always hoped what he came to understand would sit and work in his heart.>> <<@TwistedJedi2288 says : I studied for JW for about 3 years but it got to the point where I started asking questions that contridicted their teachings. The more I did so the further away they became toward me. I was pretty much cut off. I will say they are very kind people and I actually did learn alot from them but there was always this small percentage of their teachings that didn't make sense as I looked into it.>> <<@jimproctor5941 says : Good stuff, Melissa! I’ve certainly been guilty of allowing the conversation to become too uncomfortable, putting the JW on the defensive. And each time it just shuts them down. So yes…play the student! Allow them to do the talking while simply asking questions, and allow the Holy Spirit do His work in them.>> <<@mebrn5337 says : Lolol! Step one, know the bible. Lol here you are trying to refute someone and you DONT know the bible after going to church, but the guy knocking on your door does?! Lol Know what jws believe.. but don't ask the guy standing right in front of you, or their giant website.>> <<@clarachibunse7103 says : Super cool>> <<@hasoloansinaga6772 says : Whenever someone knocks on your door, it could be JW. Ask them to leave soon.>> <<@hasoloansinaga6772 says : JW is NOT Christian😮😮>> <<@yoserbmon6827 says : And why the heck would you want to reach a JW... From all I know, thats the kind of people you want to stay away from if you are any smart.>> <<@BassMANN12 says : Thank you....just had an experience with JWs gospel given, but that last tip is truly a relief. I needed to hear that one.>> <<@fl9667 says : Very smart sister>> <<@raider7829 says : I am kind to all believers in Jesus. He loves them too. We all fall short of Gods glory. All Christians are Gods responsibility not us as humans! We can't change anyone only God can. Amen>> <<@nellosnook4454 says : 1. With the spirit of kindness, feel confident engaging with either a Jehovah’s Witness or Mormon. 2. But keep in mind that both of these pseudo-Christian theologies do not consider the canon of the historic Judeo-Christian Bible to be their primary authority. 3. With Jehovah’s Witnesses, it is the writings of their founder, Charles Taze Russell. 4. With Mormons, the writings of Joseph Smith. 5. So understand upfront that these are misled people—not bad people. 6. It is also helpful if you are already “armed” with a foundational knowledge of what both of these faiths believe. 7. If you have the time, let them speak first with their rehearsed script. 8. At some point, they will stop to ask you a question. 9. That will be your opportunity to share the Gospel with them. 10. You showed you were patient while listening to them, so they should pay you the same curtesy. 11. Politely & confidently preface your comments with “I believe…” 12. “I believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ.” 13. “I believe faith alone in Jesus Christ is what saves an individual—not works.” 14. “I believe works are a fruit of the redeemed heart & mind—not the requirement for salvation.” 15. “I believe once an individual with a sincere & contrite heart accepts Jesus Christ as their Lord & Savior, he/she has passed from Death to Life—and no one can take that status away from them.” 16. At this point, they will likely attempt to refute your points by referencing their flawed interpretation of certain Scripture citations. 17. Simply say: “I believe God’s Word to Man is contained within the unadulterated, historic, Judeo-Christian Bible.” 18. “I’m quite familiar with those citations, and I believe the correct interpretation of them support the true Gospel I just shared with you.” 19. Once the Jehovah’s Witness or Mormon is convinced your are no longer a prospect for conversion, THEY will end further conversation. 20. Remember, we plant the seeds, God reaps the harvest. 21. We bring the Gospel to their ears, God brings it into their hearts. 🙏>> <<@janetyeoman1544 says : Or don’t answer the door.>> <<@good2goautobrokers637 says : Try your best to continually guide/lead them back to the point you're discussing. Stay on topic. Good points>> <<@user-br3ou2cs9o says : How about the top 5 things JW's have wrong in their teaching and what truth the bible teaches about those things top 5.>> <<@STROND says : It will be very hard for you to convice any JW's while you still continue to promote the CROSS....The instrument that Jesus died on was just that, a torture instrument, and all the evidence points to the fact that Jesus did not doe on a cross but rather a "upright pole of stake" ! An important reason is that Jesus Christ did not die on a cross. The Greek word generally translated “cross” is stau·ros′. It basically means “an upright pale or stake.” The Companion Bible points out: “[Stau·ros′] never means two pieces of timber placed across one another at any angle . . . There is nothing in the Greek of the [New Testament] even to imply two pieces of timber.” In several texts, Bible writers use another word for the instrument of Jesus’ death. It is the Greek word xy′lon. (Acts 5:30; 10:39; 13:29; Galatians 3:13; 1 Peter 2:24) This word simply means “timber” or “a stick, club, or tree.” The most convincing proof of all, however, comes from God’s Word. The apostle Paul says: “Christ by purchase released us from the curse of the Law by becoming a curse instead of us, because it is written: ‘Accursed is every man hanged upon a stake [“a tree,” King James Version].’” (Galatians 3:13) Here Paul quotes Deuteronomy 21:22, 23, which clearly refers to a stake, not a cross. Since such a means of execution made the person “a curse,” it would not be proper for Christians to decorate their homes with images of Christ impaled. So if there was a chance that this is true it means that people are putting Jesus onto a pagan symbol!>> <<@lettermaniac1 says : That's right ✅️>> <<@Shadofx says : They believe in some wack stuff>> <<@frankcardano4142 says : #6. Ask an atheist. We are more experienced at trying to reason with deluded religious people.>> <<@benwalker578 says : I was a jw for 30 years. Jesus set me free! They are very good people but are sadly deceived! All I did was pray for truth and read the Bible without the watchtower!>> <<@LightoverDarkMinistry says : Great tips. I started a channel just to give Christian’s and Ex-JW’s apologetic material in dealing with each of their doctrines.>> <<@gregsanich5183 says : You dont have to reach them, they will come right to your door>> <<@kurtweiand7086 says : Good advice 👍. Bless you girl.😇>> <<@ulmasalli2074 says : When they come Im nicely thank them for coming and sharing their news with me and tell them im happy with Jesus...they leave...>> <<@GreenThumbCarnivore says : My granny, my mothers mom, and her husband are JW.>> <<@StruckDownNotDestroyed says : 3 words. Charles Taze Russell.>> <<@fladagreat says : Hard to refute others teachings when your book contradicts itself.>> <<@Scorpion-my3dv says : Thanks CE>> <<@BrayzenBull says : Her eyebrows are bigh>> <<@philipmcbride1903 says : What do you do when they don't know what they believe (blind faith)>> <<@cesarrodriguez1399 says : I'm a JW... Kindness is key... And yes I agree we don't do the saving. Like in all groups, not all members understand this. Disagreements on Bible interpretation shouldn't be a point of contention. 🙂>> <<@Acts-1915 says : We've got mormons. My Mom asks lots of questions...I think she's teaching them pretty well. 😂❤>> <<@generalalcazar41442 says : So many of them on the streets of my town. Makes me sad they are the main ones presenting Christianity on the streets>> <<@ta3p-theannex3project84 says : Same imaginairy friend, only different indoctrination method.>> <<@NewCreationInChrist896 says : 1 Corinthians 3:6-9 “I planted the seed and Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. He who plants and he who waters are one in purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, God’s building.”>> <<@justbecause9049 says : You have to be ready to be their best friend and introduce them to a new community. Many of them also could have personality disorders such as histrionic personality disorder as those with this disorder are easily fooled into joining cults. The JW “religion” brainwashes and isolates members from their families. They tell them that if they are Christians or any other religion that they could throw a demon at them and get them banned from everlasting life (their version of the afterlife). If other members find different religious material at their house- they will tattle in them and get them kicked out of their JW religious community. It’s tough to minister to someone who is in a cult.>> <<@thatomofolo452 says : Lol only Jesus Christ Yeshua He is the way truth and the life 🤞🤞💯>> <<@Steve5277-e4o says : I love how Cross Examined are building a coalition of some of the best apologists around.>> <<@idk-iq8zn says : Good video. My mother wad a JW. It took much prayer and discussion but God did it. He gets the Glory. He saved her. 🙌>> <<@matthewdejesus9472 says : Forgive me , but she's a baddie!>> <<@Drill4you.c says : As an atheist! I question all religions🤔>>
