The Holy Ghost Dialogue

MISSIONARY Before we begin, we would like to talk to you about something that is very important. We are personal representatives of the Lord Jesus Christ, and He has provided a way for you to find out if the things we are telling you are true. The way that this is done is through the power of the Holy Ghost. In the scriptures the Lord tells us what the purpose of the Holy Ghost is. Would you please read John 15:26? (Give background and a "look for" question.)
INVESTIGATOR Reads John 15:26
MISSIONARY What does the Lord say the Holy Ghost will do?
INVESTIGATOR Testify of Him.
MISSIONARY How will the Holy Ghost do this?
INVESTIGATOR Through our feelings. (If needed read Doc & Cov 8:2 or Galatians 5:22-23.
MISSIONARY That is how the Holy Ghost operates, by impressions on the mind and feelings in the heart. Feelings will come to your heart such as a peace or a warmth.

These feelings will result in an assurance and confidence that the things we are telling you are true. You may not be able to see the Holy Ghost but you will be able to feel his presence. You shall feel in your heart that it is right.

Tonight we would like you to be particularly sensitive to the feelings within you, because the Lord has said that this is the way the Holy Ghost communicates with us. When your heart tells you something your mind doesnn't know, you are listening to the Spirit of the Lord. When you feel these feelings will you accept it as and answer from God?
INVESTIGATOR Yes.
MISSIONARY When God gives you that answer will you be baptized?
INVESTIGATOR Yes.
