Summary
The video explains Jehovah's Witnesses' belief that Jesus is a created being, not fully God, and provides a strategy to address this using a simple visual aid on a napkin. By drawing a rectangle and labeling sides as uncreated and created things, one can prompt the Jehovah's Witness to consider where Jesus belongs. Highlighting John 1:3, which states that Jesus created all things, helps to challenge the belief and point to the logic that if Jesus created everything, he must be eternal and uncreated. Be prepared for different interpretations of responses, but emphasize the clarity of the scripture in asserting Jesus' role as the creator.
