Show a Bible truth to someone you see in your daily life (lmd lesson 1 point 3).<\/p><\/div><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-001 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> How was your visit to the museum? In the end, were you able to get in without waiting too long?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-002 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, I bought my ticket beforehand. Look at these photos. I went for the photography exhibit, but I ended up enjoying the room with religious artifacts. There were things I didn\u2019t even know how to use.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-003 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Did the explanations next to them help you, or did you leave with even more questions?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-004 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> A little of both. I kept thinking that there are so many ideas about God that it seems as if everyone imagines him in his own way. I\u2019m interested in history, but religions confuse me.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-005 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Sure, seeing so many different representations can leave you with that impression. Is what confuses you that people believe such different things, or that it\u2019s difficult to know what to base your beliefs on?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-006 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> The second one. If someone tells me that God is a certain way, I think: How do they know? It\u2019s not enough for me that it\u2019s a very old tradition.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-007 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> That\u2019s true; the fact that an idea is old doesn\u2019t prove that it\u2019s true. Your comment reminds me of a Bible account: Paul noticed some religious objects in Athens and spoke with the people about what he had seen.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-008 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> And what did he tell them? Because starting by telling them they were wrong wouldn\u2019t have helped much.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-009 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Exactly. First he acknowledged their devotion and mentioned something specific he had observed. I have the account on my phone. May I read you two verses? They relate to that question about knowing God.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-010 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Sure, if it\u2019s only two, we have time before we go back.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-011 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Yes, they\u2019re brief. Notice how he used the inscription on an altar to introduce the subject. It\u2019s at Acts 17:22, 23. There\u2019s a passage that fits this situation well. Would you like to read Acts 17:22-23?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-dialogue-scripture ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-012 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Acts 17:22-23 \u2014 Paul now stood in the midst of the Areopagus and said: \u201cMen of Athens, I see that in all things you seem to be more given to the fear of the deities than others are. For instance, while passing along and carefully observing your objects of veneration, I found even an altar on which had been inscribed \u2018To an Unknown God.\u2019 Therefore, what you are unknowingly worshipping, this I am declaring to you. It strikes me that he did not present God as someone who had to remain unknown. He was telling them about him so that they could know him. That is the Bible\u2019s idea I wanted to share with you: We can know God.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-014 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I understand the idea. But Paul\u2019s saying that he knew God doesn\u2019t prove that he was right.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-015 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> That\u2019s true; these two verses don\u2019t settle the whole issue. They show how he introduced the subject. To evaluate what he said, we would have to examine his explanation, not accept it simply because he spoke confidently.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-016 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I would do that. I like looking at the reasons, even if I don\u2019t reach the same conclusion afterward.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-017 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Of course. If you feel like it another day, we can continue reading what Paul explained to them and discuss it. You can tell me what you think.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-018 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Maybe during another break. Now let\u2019s go in; it\u2019s getting late.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-1 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I\u2019d be interested, although I don\u2019t know much about the Bible. Sometimes I find it difficult to understand an ancient text because I don\u2019t know what was happening or whom it was addressed to.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> That makes a big difference. For example, a photo of an object in the museum lets you see what it looks like, but it may not explain what it was used for. With an account, too, it helps to look at the context: who is speaking, to whom, and why.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-3 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, I\u2019d rather read it that way, without taking one sentence out of context to justify an idea we already have.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-4 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Then we can start by putting the conversation in context and afterward see how Paul develops his explanation. We\u2019ll read it calmly and discuss any questions that come up for you.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-01-019 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Let\u2019s do that.

Last time you took your towels home still damp.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u02 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, but today I chose another one, just in case. I already have plenty of clothes waiting at home. If I have to hang them out again, I\u2019ll never finish.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u03 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Well, hopefully everything comes out dry today. I kept thinking about what you asked me while we were folding clothes: How can a book written so long ago be useful to us now?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u04 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, because when you mentioned studying the Bible, I thought you meant learning names and dates. I\u2019m not saying that\u2019s bad, but right now I need practical things, not more information to memorize.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u05 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> I understand the difference. A Bible course can start precisely with a question that interests you and help you see how the answer is useful. It is not simply a matter of accumulating facts. What would you consider practical help?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u06 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> For example, not ending up arguing with my brother every time we organize something. Yesterday we divided up some tasks and ended up reproaching each other for things from last month. Although I don\u2019t want to tell you the whole story either.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u07 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> You don\u2019t need to tell me the details. That helps me understand your question better: You want to know whether what you learn could help you in real situations, like that one, and not remain merely theoretical.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u08 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Exactly. And it wouldn\u2019t help me if someone told me that I always have to agree with him. Sometimes there are things I need to say, even if they upset him.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u09 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Of course, leaving a problem unresolved is not the same as solving it. There is a passage that explains what the Bible is useful for and helps us assess what you could expect from a course. May I read it to you?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u10 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, the machine still has a few minutes left.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u11 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Notice that it speaks about learning, but also about correcting things and being prepared to act. I\u2019ll read 2 Timothy 3:16, 17. There\u2019s a passage that fits this situation well. Would you like to read 2 Timothy 3:16-17?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-dialogue-scripture ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u12 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> 2 Timothy 3:16-17 \u2014 All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness, so that the man of God may be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work. That\u2019s why I told you it is not limited to learning stories. Its purpose includes helping us act properly and correct whatever needs correcting. That is the usefulness we would look for when studying one of your questions.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u14 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> But it says that it comes from God. You\u2019re convinced; I\u2019m not so sure. Reading that a book is useful does not by itself prove that it will help me.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u15 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> That\u2019s true; it doesn\u2019t resolve all your doubts. I don\u2019t expect you to be convinced just because we read a passage. We can examine what it teaches, understand its reasons, and see how it relates to something that concerns you.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u16 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> That seems more reasonable to me. Although, regarding my brother, the problem is that I can try to speak properly and he may still answer me rudely.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u17 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Yes, you can\u2019t decide how he will respond. It would be unrealistic to promise you that. But we could look for what would help you decide how to respond, without assuming that all the blame is yours.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u18 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Because that impression would definitely put me off. Although I admit that yesterday I started with a reproach before he had said anything.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u19 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Then you have already identified something specific that you would like to change. When the passage speaks about setting things straight, we can also think about examining our own way of acting, not merely finding something the other person should correct.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u20 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> And what would looking at it in a course be like? Would I have to start with the whole history of the Bible before getting to that?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u21 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> We can start with your question. We would look for related Bible information, read the passages, and discuss how to apply them. You could say what you understand, what does not convince you, or what you find difficult to put into practice.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u22 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I could try it once. But I\u2019d rather start with how to say something that bothers me without turning it into an argument.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u23 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Then I\u2019ll prepare that question. Would you like us to look at it when we happen to be here on Saturday? If you\u2019re in a hurry that day, we can find another time.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u24 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Saturday works for me. We can look at it while we wait for the clothes, and afterward I\u2019ll decide whether I want to continue.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u25 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> All right.

Subject: How Do Jehovah\u2019s Witnesses Treat Those Who No Longer Belong to Their Religion? (th lesson 4).<\/p><\/div><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_001 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Did they say whether the next practice will also finish later? I have to organize myself to come pick up the younger one.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_002 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, everyone is leaving at this time this week. By the way, I wanted to ask you something. My sister and I were talking about religions, and yours came up. Is it true that when someone stops being one of Jehovah\u2019s Witnesses, you no longer want anything to do with him?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_003 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> You can ask me, of course. Were you talking about someone who simply stops attending meetings, or someone who has been removed from the congregation? I ask because those are not the same situation.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_004 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Well, I couldn\u2019t say. I thought they were the same: if someone no longer participates, he is out and the others stop associating with him. That seemed harsh to me.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_005 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> I understand that you\u2019re concerned about how such a person is treated. If someone stops attending or preaching, we do not remove him from the congregation for that reason. On the contrary, we take the initiative to contact him, assure him that we love him, and try to help him draw close to God.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_006 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Then in what case is someone removed? Because we can all do something wrong. I wouldn\u2019t want to belong to a place where one mistake meant losing my friends.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_007 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Someone is not automatically removed for committing a serious sin. The elders, who care for the congregation spiritually, first try to help him change. He is removed if, despite repeated efforts to help him, he persists in that conduct and does not repent.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_008 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> But that help can be given in many ways. If they sit him in front of several people to reproach him for what he has done, I don\u2019t know how much that would help him.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_009 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> You\u2019re right that the way it is done matters greatly. The Bible does not give them permission to humiliate him. Notice the attitude Paul asked of those who were to help someone who had taken a false step. I\u2019ll read Galatians 6:1. There\u2019s a passage that fits this situation well. Would you like to read Galatians 6:1?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-dialogue-scripture ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_010 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Galatians 6:1 \u2014 Brothers, even if a man takes a false step before he is aware of it, you who have spiritual qualifications try to readjust such a man in a spirit of mildness. But keep an eye on yourself, for fear you too may be tempted. That mildness is essential. In addition, the one helping must keep an eye on himself and not feel superior. The elders try to reach the person\u2019s heart with love and kindness so that he recognizes his error and changes.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_012 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> That sounds different from what I imagined. But my main question remains: If he is eventually removed, do you stop associating with him or not?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_013 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Yes, we stop socializing with that person. I don\u2019t want to evade that part of your question. The reason is found in an instruction Paul gave to the Christians in Corinth. Notice that it refers to someone who was considered a brother and practiced such conduct. It says at 1 Corinthians 5:11. There\u2019s a passage that fits this situation well. Would you like to read 1 Corinthians 5:11?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-dialogue-scripture ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_014 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> 1 Corinthians 5:11 \u2014 But now I am writing you to stop keeping company with anyone called a brother who is sexually immoral or a greedy person or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or an extortioner, not even eating with such a man. That is why we no longer associate socially with him. This upholds God\u2019s moral standards and protects the congregation from a harmful influence. It can also help the person realize that he needs to change.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_016 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I understand where you get that from, although I still think it must hurt terribly. And I find it difficult to see how you can stop associating with someone and say that you love him.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_017 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> I wouldn\u2019t tell you that it doesn\u2019t hurt. But stopping social association does not mean despising him or completely ignoring him. He is still welcome at our meetings, where those present can greet him. In addition, he can ask the elders for spiritual help. They will kindly guide him using the Bible.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_018 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> What if he has a wife and children who are still Witnesses? They are not to blame for what he did. Does the relationship at home change too?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_019 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Family ties remain. If he lives with his wife and young children, the normal relationship between them continues, and they continue treating one another with affection. Although they no longer worship God together, that does not eliminate their responsibilities or their family bonds.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_020 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I didn\u2019t know about that distinction. And can he return to the congregation? I wonder whether, after something like that, the others would always look at him with suspicion.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_021 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> He can return if he abandons his wrong conduct and shows that he sincerely wants to follow Bible standards. And the Bible explains how to receive him. To answer your concern, I\u2019ll read what Paul asked when a man in Corinth changed his conduct. It is at 2 Corinthians 2:6-8. There\u2019s a passage that fits this situation well. Would you like to read 2 Corinthians 2:6-8?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-dialogue-scripture ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_022 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> 2 Corinthians 2:6-8 \u2014 This rebuke given by the majority is sufficient for such a man; now you should instead kindly forgive and comfort him, so that he may not be overwhelmed by excessive sadness. I therefore exhort you to confirm your love for him. The instruction is to forgive him, comfort him, and assure him of our love. We should not treat him as if he could never leave what happened behind. We want to help him move forward and regain his friendship with Jehovah.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_024 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I can\u2019t say that I see everything the same way you do. But I do see that I had mixed up different situations. Stopping attendance is not the same as continuing to practice something serious without wanting to change.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_025 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Exactly. And in any of those situations, we strive to treat the person with love and respect. If you\u2019re interested, another day we can look at the article that answers your question specifically and discuss what you still find difficult.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm_03_026 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, I\u2019d rather read it calmly. Look, the kids are already coming out. When we see each other again, I\u2019ll tell you what questions I still have.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Assignments and examples for Apply Yourself to the Field Ministry for
