PASTOR USES JOHN1:3 CHECKMATE
His story is about how two JWs who saw the conflict and were convicted.
I had just read last month's report and lesson on using the John 1:3 "Checkmate." I left the church and went to the local Korean market to get some apples, and there they were! Two Jehovah's Witnesses with their literature stand. I thought, "That’s why I just read the lesson!" I purchased my apples, went outside, and greeted the men. I dove right in and asked them if they were men of “truth,” to which they answered, "Yes, of course." Then I asked them to show me John 1:3 in their New World Translation. They were surprised I knew about the NWT, but they gladly pulled out their iPads and showed me the verse. I asked them if "him" in v. 3 was the same person as in verse 1.
Hello, my name is Gary Ellison, Director of Frontier Baptist Missions, Inc. God has given FBMI a long and rich history of partnering with the Local Church to fulfill the Great Commission. FBMI started in 1951 with its primary focus at the Border of Mexico, reaching Hispanics with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. However, today FBMI has the privilege of working with Baptist Missionaries in 19 countries. As Director, our vision at FBMI is to do all we can to strengthen the ministries of the Local Church. I believe partnering with Dave and Putter Weeks’ ministry, BWCE, will help our vision of serving the Local Baptist Church.
THE
NEW BEGINNING OF BWCE
Greetings, spiritual family, my name is Joshua Ellison. I stepped out by faith, though timidly and not without deliberation and prayer, counsel, and personal introspection. God rewards steps of faith. He reliably directed my steps repeatedly as I have journeyed, seeking His will for my life. I was introduced to Dave Weeks by my father, Gary Ellison, while seeking confirmation of God’s directing. Unbeknown to me, Dave had been praying for the past couple of years for God to raise someone to help and continue the ministries of BWCE. God has led Dave and me to join paths, as we were both directed to partner with Frontier Baptist Missions Incorporated, a mission board; seminary/training center; literature ministry, as evangelists.TBS has training in three levels: 1. One Year Bible Certificate; 2. Associate Degree in Bible Theology; 3. Bachelors Degree in Pastoral Theology. A student can study on our campus in Mercedes, TX or on line via the internet. Please consider preparing yourself for God’s work at TBS! Please contact us with any questions.
TRINITY BAPTIST SEMINARY

Did Jesus have a God? Does John 17:3 teach that the Father is the only true God; therefore, denying the trinity? Does Colossians 1:15 teach that Jesus was created?
If one were to talk with ten different people who are "cult experts," most likely he or she would get a different definition of what a cult is from each of them.
