Jehovah’s Witnesses like to say that they are in the truth. They even greet each other with expressions such as when did you come into the truth? Or, how long have you been in the truth?
Actually, these expressions only replace the word organization with the word truth. But since the teachings of the organization constantly change, it only serves to weaken the force of the word.
Jesus stated that he was the way, the truth and the life. Hence, to be in the truth would mean to remain in the teachings of the Christ.
Jehovah’s Witnesses have a long history of encouraging persons to find fault with their religion in order to leave and become members of the Watchtower society. But witnesses are never allowed to critically examine the teachings of the organization in order to determine their truthfulness. For many in the organization, the truth would be devastating.
