5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent introduction to the basic issues, February 23, 2002

By A Customer

If you don't know where to start with witnessing, Rhodes will launch you into an educated beginning.

Rhodes has addressed priorities in sharing Christian truths with Jehovah's Witnesses concerning: the Watchtower Society, the New World Translation, God's name, Jesus as God, the Holy Spirit as God, the Trinity, salvation by grace through faith, the people of God, the afterlife and hell, and (most significantly) a relationship with Jesus Christ as life-changing.

Rhodes summarizes Watchtower beliefs on each topic. He then offers brief, Biblical responses to the Watchtower views, organizing his information by icons in each chapter for quick-referencing. He also provides cross-references to his earlier work, "Reasoning from the Scriptures with the Jehovah's Witnesses."

I think this book would be very helpful in developing a long-term, topical method of witnessing to a JW family member or friend. However, I would suggest balancing Rhodes' strategy with those found in additional books, such as Wilbur Lingle's "Approaching Jehovah's Witnesses in Love" and books by David Reed. Successful witnessing requires sensitivity, love, and a broad base of knowledge of the Witnesses.

5.0 out of 5 stars Conversation with a JW, November 15, 2006

By	Charles Reader - See all my reviews

If you want to have a serious conversation with one who is a Jehovah's Witness, and not have them talking at you without you having any input to the conversation, then you will be better prepared after you read this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Understand the Science of Making a Simple Argument, June 28, 2005

By	Steven Horth (Brewster, NY USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Alright, everyone, just calm down.
First, Ron rocks and I love this book.
Second, if you hate the book, don't just throw a bunch of insults around. Do yourselves (and the rest of us) a favor and EXPLAIN WHY. This means you point out specific issues (and page numbers) the author brings up and show us why they are factually incorrect.
If you can't do THAT MUCH, then you are just embarrassing yourself (and those you represent).
BTW, that is a classical method of critique; not one the Cults (or American educators) encourage people to know, much less use.
