What do you say?

What do you say? Gently close the door!”

1 Corinthians 10:13-14 Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.  I speak as to sensible people; judge for yourselves what I say.”

Why do Jehovah’s Witnesses believe in idolatry? Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that Jesus is not God but a god! Muslims believe Jesus was a prophet.

What might you say? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpc4ygCQeP M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VKT4hrBTuk

What do we believe about Jesus? Jesus is true God!

Jesus is true God! In the beginning was the Word. The Word was with God and the Word was God.

When did Jesus get created? Never Questions: Who is the Word? Jesus When did Jesus get created? Never Jesus is true God

Philippians 2:6-7 “…who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant,[c] being born in the likeness of men.”

What do we believe about Jesus? Jesus is true Man!

Jesus is true Man! Jesus wept!

Philippians 2:7-8 “…but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.”

3. Jesus Loves You! 1. I am valuable! 2. Jesus gives Me purpose.

Deuteronomy 32:15-17 Israel (Jeshurun) got fat and disrespectful.     (You got fat! You were stuffed! You were gorged!) They abandoned the God who made them and treated the rock of their salvation like a fool. 16         They made him furious because they worshiped foreign gods and angered him because they worshiped worthless idols. 17         They sacrificed to demons that are not God, to gods they never heard of.

Are you jealous?

God is Jealous for You!

Call Jesus by His Name: 1. Don’t call him Allah, Buddah, or Vishnu – He is Jesus 2. Jesus is Jealous for You

What do you say?

What do you say? “Open the door cautiously!”

2nd Way to Respond to Jehovah’s Witness: 21 keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. 22 And have mercy on those who doubt; 23 save others by snatching them out of the fire; to others show mercy with fear, hating even the garment stained by the flesh.
