If they don t use electricity, how can the Amish sometimes have water heaters, stoves and refrigerators in their homes?
First, the Amish use gas in many of these instances. Many appliances that we run on electricity can be converted to run on natural gas. Also, some have windmills on their property which generate power. This is acceptable because it is self-reliance on a natural , Godly source of power as opposed to being connected to our power lines with their man-made electricity.
