I'm not bashing anyone, but why is it that you guys (whitnesses) go door to door to preech to everyone? Ur the only religious group that I know of that does that. It's kinda like pop-ups and spam. If I wanted it, I think I'd ask for it or persue it myself.

Nobody's answered my question...    lol

Sorry Owtlaw, I missed your question in the heat of debate.

Witnesses are not the only group that gos ‘Door to Door’. The Mormons do it as well.
We preach door to door as per what Matthew 24:14 says: “And this good news will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations;…”

Also Matthew 28:19, 20: “19 Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded YOU. And, look! I am with YOU all the days until the conclusion of the system of things.”

That sums it up really. We cant be sitting around waiting for people to ask us about God. We take the word of God to the people as Jesus told us to do.

Well, the easiest answer, is that God and Jesus tells us to.

Matthew 24:14

And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come.

This is just one of the many scriptures telling us to go out and preach the good news. Also, the reason why we are the only ones who go out and preach door to door, is that we follow what the bible tells us, unlike most other religions.

The Mormons do it as well.

I know they kinda do it... but my understanding of them is that they go to tha houses of people who are referred or requested to have them come to their house.
But I don't know for sure, and really don't care... you already answered my question.

Cool, at lease one person is listening
As for the Mormons going door to door at request of the person this may be true, but they seem to knock on my door all the time. I never asked them to come over, next time they do I'm going to invite them in and have a nice little chat with them.

I never had them come to my door, until a couple of months ago. Never asked for them to call on me.

I'm sorry, but I'm failing to see the door to door command in that verse. To say that you are the only group doing what God (Jehovah) commanded because you go door to door is kind of stupid, honestly. You miss so many people just going door to door, it isn't even funny.... May the love of Christ be with you, jesusphreak...

You’re about as hard headed as a goat aren’t you?
We do not miss people be going door to door. We go to just more than homes you know. Whens the last time you saw some one run up to a Church, burst in and say “Teach me about God!”

In the world we live in people have no time to cook a home cooked meal (for the most part) People try to cram so many things together at once. Been driving down the road, seeing guys shaving, women putting on make up, and even people reading the Wall Street Journal while driving! And that really scares me.

Any way, if these people don’t even have time to do what they should have at home, what makes you think they have time for the Bible? People like this can be shown it dose not take long to get to know and love God. But we don’t find these people at home normally, we find them at work, thats why we also preach the good news in the business territory.



Oh, and thomes, don't you have any thing better to do?

I'm not saying going door to door is wrong man, I'm just saying it isn't the only way.....

Who said we only go door to door?

[thomes08]

in a lot of neighborhoods going door to door is wrong.  Like in my neighborhood.  But it happens sometimes anyways.
