DO NOT LET OTHERS WEAKEN YOUR APPRECIATION

 God's opposers try to put positive aspects of his organization in a negative light. For instance, we have learned from the Scriptures that Jehovah expects his worshippers to be clean physically, morally, and spiritually. He requires that any who unrepentantly pursue a course of uncleanness be removed from the congregation. (1 Corinthians 5:11-13; 6:9, 10) We adhere to that Scriptural command. But our opposers try to use that against us by accusing us of being intolerant, judgmental, and unloving.

Recognize the source of attacks. Satan the Devil is behind false stories. He is "the father of the lie." (John 8:44; Genesis 3:1-5) So we should expect that Satan will use his supporters to promote false stories about Jehovah's organization. This was evident in the first century.
