A long discussion with my a sister a full time pioneer who now stated that since my father, mother and myself no longer have faith in the org but only to God is spirtiualy weak and she has decided not to call us any more. i read several scriptures about neglecting your father and mother but it is the org's word that came first. i read to her many scriptures on making sure your family is well taken care of but to no avail she quoted a magazine..... My sister had decided not to have children believing the end is near but it never came when the org told her it would come. now that she is 38 her child bearing years have almost past, her husband is always ill so i asked her if your husband pass' away will the congregation give you the love your family has? Will the org support you or advise to get welfare or work at a job you have no skills since you done nothing but field service? I told her before she hung up that to tell dad you will never call him again and that you want nothing to do with mom because they decided to leave a religion that is in itself apostate from christ teaching is a greater sin because that commandment was from the very god she says she prays too and it goes against the very foundation of Christ's teaching of love and compassion. She simply stated the jehovah will provide because she is in the truth.. i told her one last time that to neglect your family will bring retrobution from jehovah not praise.....

I am very sorry to hear your dilema. It is all the same JW brainwash.

I hope your sister will come to her senses before it is too late. There will come a time when she will regret her actions.

You sound very smart... in that you know exacly what to say to get to them. The fact that she hung up on you shows how frustrated she really is.

Thank you for the post.... it shows the true brainwashing capabilities of an organization that twists scriptures around to tear people apart.

Sorry to hear that, the mole.

I wonder what her return visits will think of her if they find out what she is doing to you.

the mole, sorry to hear about your situation. I know how it hurts to have a family member turn away for this very same reason. I keep hoping time will just make it easier. I hope so for you too.

(((mole))) I am going through very much the same thing. My entire family has turned their back on me (oh yea, except when they NEED something from me). But I have been fortunate enough to be blessed with a new family (hubby and the kids), in-laws that love me a bunch, and a great new set of friends.

I am hurt about what my old family did to me - but I'm not really sad any more - if that makes sense. I guess I'm not sad because I'm not lacking anything in the way of relationships.

Well - you are right mole - your sister will be very lonely. But maybe some day she will realize the situation she is in and have a change of heart. In the mean time - I wish you the best and I hope that you are also blessed with friends and family who love you.

Hey "mole!"

I'm sorry to hear about this! I'm going through something similar. Once someone has been fully engulfed in the BORG, it is extremely difficult to get them (especially relatives) to think outside the "Watchtower box (or is that "snare?")!"

Wish you and your family the best, however. Just continue showing love to the "real unbelievers," perhaps God will open their minds and hearts to see the terrible deception they are in!
