   James. They were not knocking on doors of non-believers. They were going from   
   house to house wherein the ekklesia’s met.   
      
   Acts 2:46And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and   
   breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and   
   singleness of heart,   
      
   1 Corinthians 16:19 The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla   
   salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house.   
      
   Neither Jesus not his disciples knocked on doors. They went to public places   
   some of which were the synagogues, and the temple. Those they came in contact   
   with on the streets, at the wells, and so on.   
      
   So why doesn’t the JW do the same thing? And nothing is stopping you and   
   other from inviting people into your homes instead of interrupting the   
   personal lives of others.
