Hi Zbusc,
Recently you posted a link to Catholic Answers about the history of JW.
While there I read some articles about Faith and Works.
There are 3 audios there by a Tim Staples which would be most closely aligned to how I read the scriptures.
Tim Staples was a Southern Baptist and an Assemblies of God Pastor before leaving all that and becoming Catholic
Worth a couple of hours of your time if you are interested.
