My Candid Correspondence With a Jehovah’s Witness

A Real Conversation

J.L. Pattison

--

Not too long ago I received a letter in the mail from a Jehovah’s Witness. It was a form letter, the envelope addressed to a generic “neighbor.”

I opened the envelope and the typed letter inside encouraged me to reach out to the sender to learn more about God’s Kingdom. So, I did just that, via email, but the sender of the letter kept wanting to get out of the conversation. Now I’m going to share that correspondence with you.

What follows is my correspondence with this Jehovah’s Witness, copied and pasted below—including original grammar/spelling issues—with the only change being to the Jehovah’s Witnesses’ name to protect her identity.

If you’ve ever wanted a peek behind the scenes of a Jehovah’s Witnesses tactics and polemics, then without further ado, I present to you My Candid Correspondence With a Jehovah’s Witness.

Greetings, Maria.

I recently received a letter from you in the mail regarding what you referred to as God’s kingdom, and you said that you hoped someday to talk with me about it. Thank you for taking the time to write me. You can now correspond with me via this email if you should so desire.

Sincerely,
