The Watchtower, “‘Do Not Be Quickly Shaken From Your Reason’”
“You may even reason: ‘It won’t affect me; I’m too strong in the truth. And, besides, if we have the truth, we have nothing to fear. The truth will stand the test.’ In thinking this way, some have fed their minds upon apostate reasoning and have fallen prey to serious questioning and doubt. [par. 7] … If, out of curiosity, we were to read the literature of a known apostate, would that not be the same as inviting this enemy of true worship right into our home [par. 10]”
Section headed 'Have No Dealings With Apostates'. The article treats 'the truth will stand the test' as a dangerous line of reasoning.
