Directing Interested Ones to Jehovah’s Organization
When we conduct Bible studies and help people become disciples of Jesus Christ, they come to know Jehovah God and are brought into the congregation. Congregations are organized theocratically to do Jehovah’s will. Bible students will make spiritual progress and grow to maturity if we help them to recognize Jehovah’s organization and cooperate with it. It is important to teach them how.
To accomplish this, you can use videos and brochures that have been specifically prepared for this purpose. Some of the information found in Chapter 4 of this publication may also be helpful.
From the very beginning of your Bible discussions with interested people, help them to see that Jehovah is using an organization to get his work done on earth today. Point out the value of the Bible study aids used by Jehovah’s Witnesses, and explain how they are produced and distributed worldwide by volunteer workers who are dedicated to God. Invite your Bible students to accompany you to the Congregation Book Study. Introduce them to the brothers and sisters there, and explain how meetings at the Kingdom Hall are conducted. Encourage them to attend. Help them to get acquainted with other Witnesses at circuit assemblies and district conventions. On these and other occasions, let new ones observe for themselves how Jehovah’s servants display the identifying mark of true Christians, love. (John 13:35) As interested people grow in appreciation for Jehovah’s organization, they will make greater advancement in getting to know Jehovah.
