Someone thinking
In my Who I am course, I interviewed a Jehovah witness. After my interview, I felt very enlightened.
FRERE TOUSAN
For our external investigation, I interviewed frere Tousan a Jehovah witness, who I have known for about 2 years now. I asked him a series of question in relations to faith and doubts. Frere Tousan pointed out that it is not having doubts about faith that is an issue, but rather how we respond to those doubts. Attacking these doubts from a biblical perspective, Frere Tousan responded to my questions as an informed christian.
What can we do if we find ourselves struggling with doubts about Christianity why do such doubts arise? How do we get rid of such taunting doubts?
Every christian will always face doubt.
if we want to rid ourselves of doubts, the first step is to familiarize ourselves with the principle of displacement. As we grasp this principle, all the other steps become evident. He himself wrestle with doubts about his own faith. Doubts can take any form and arise for all sorts of reasons. His doubts rose while he was experiencing great sorrow, disappointments, such as personal wounds. He concluded that ignoring his doubts only resulted in spiritual disasters. He made a comparison between faith and reason. He differentiated between knowing Christianity is true and showing that it is true. I learned lots about faith during this interview. In a way I believe more in god than I ever did. I have moments when I ask myself questions about faith and Christianity, and those conflicts were resolved.
