I have always felt a ping of sickness when I answer the door and it's another person claiming that they know the real way to salvation or that Christianity has it wrong. I am not one to think that I have all the answers. I know I don't. But it irritates me when someone claims that they are right and then can't support their information with scripture. If you have to go to another book to prove your faith, that is not God. If you have to stick to a specific bible, that is not God. I know there are arguments that there are translation errors, and rightly so, but one type is not the only accurate one. The entire Bible is the infallible Word of God, written under the direction of the Holy Spirit. As such, I have decided to take on an assignment that will further my faith and hopefully help others.
If you don't agree with someone, isn't it wise to get their reasoning to strengthen your belief? Example, if I know what you are going to argue when it comes to something, wouldn't it strengthen my argument if I was able to rebuttal at the moment instead of later when the sudden, "I should have said this" comes to my mind. I hate that. And I hate getting caught at the door with Jehovah Witnesses and Church of Christ and Mormons...
So, I am going to look up the different faiths and research them. I'm going to compile a book of what they believe and the scripture that they use to support it. That way, when Mr. Witness comes to my door, I can just thumb to his section and have a real debate, soul for soul.

How is the book coming?
I am still in the research phase... :)
