NASB | Romans 3:4 May it never be! Rather, let God be found true, though every man be found a liar, as it is written, "THAT YOU MAY BE JUSTIFIED IN YOUR WORDS, AND PREVAIL WHEN YOU ARE JUDGED." |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 3:4 Certainly not! Let God be found true [as He will be], though every person be found a liar, just as it is written [in Scripture], "THAT YOU MAY BE JUSTIFIED IN YOUR WORDS, AND PREVAIL WHEN YOU ARE JUDGED [by sinful men]." [Ps 51:4] |
Subject: Jehovah's Witnesses in a Nutshell |
Bible Note: Exactly Hank, I believe that if people really want to KNOW THE TRUTH, God will indeed show it to them. A lot of times with folk like Jehovah's Witnesses, we want to use a lot of theology and logic to win them instead of being led of the Holy Spirit of what we should say to them. We have to remember that they are taught that Christians will react a certain way and whatever they are challenged with they will go to a more knowledgable Elder in their own organization to seek the answer they may not have for you at that time. If we yield ourselves and follow God's way of ministering to Witnesses and cults like them, we can win them. We cannot win these folk with head knowledge alone, although you need to have knowledge of the Word of God for God's Word saids that people parish for lack of knowledge and we need to study to show ourselves approved unto God (and remember it's God we are showing ourselves approved unto not man) being a workman that needeth not be ashamed RIGHTLY dividing the Word of truth, so this is essential. But having head knowledge to debate an issue with people under cults is a waste of your breath if you are not led by the Holy Spirit in ministering that knowledge. We must approach people God's way and with His heart and words in which we've studied through His Word and stop just trying to prove we are right and let our words as well as are lifestyles (actions and behavior) before God and man show them the REAL TRUTH. |
