Readmission as in the elders have given the green light for a disfellowshipped / disassociated person to return to the congregation? -

prologos:
and "-- done to the least --" and not to the top 7 , the only certified brothers of "christ". and: the "sheep" ask when did we do this? but: since the GB tells the Other Sheep now that they have to do it to them as service, ,the sheep could not ask that question in the supposed judgement to come.
From my observations, it is "the least" who are the most neglected in congregations. Little or no help is provided for those without a status & who have nothing to offer in return. Congregation members are judged based on the number of hours they put in field circus, NOT on acts of love shown toward fellow believers & outsiders! JW's claim to be following Matt 25, but it's so obvious that they are doing it wrong!

Ucantnome:
last elder I spoke to told me it doesn't matter if the good news is correct.
If it doesn't matter if the good news is correct or not, then it should likewise NOT matter if we preach the "good news" or not!

Today's text:
Monday, January 25
To the extent that you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.—Matt. 25:40.
Early in his discourse found in Matthew chapters 24 and 25, Jesus indicated that the sign of his presence would include a remarkable feature—the good news of the Kingdom would “be preached in all the inhabited earth.” (Matt. 24:14) And just prior to talking about the sheep and the goats, he related the illustration of the talents. Jesus gave that illustration to stress to his spirit-anointed disciples, his “brothers,” that they must zealously engage in the preaching work. However, the small number of anointed ones left on earth during Jesus’ presence face an enormous challenge—that of preaching to “all the nations” before the end comes. The illustration of the sheep and the goats shows that the anointed would have help. Therefore, a primary way that those judged to be sheep show kindness to Christ’s brothers is by supporting them in the preaching work. w15 3/15 4:9, 10Hmm... let us now consider the full text:
34 “Then the King will say to those on his right: ‘Come, you who have been blessed by my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the founding of the world. 35 For I became hungry and you gave me something to eat; I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger and you received me hospitably; 36 naked and you clothed me. I fell sick and you looked after me. I was in prison and you visited me.’ 37 Then the righteous ones will answer him with the words: ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and receive you hospitably, or naked and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ 40 In reply the King will say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’
Obviously, Jesus was talking about acts of kindness toward others, NOT preaching! The lesson of the illustration of the talents is to use resources entrusted to you wisely so that you would not be held accountable, NOT natural talents given to you by God to be used in preaching as interpreted by WT! Preaching = salvation? Nope!!!

whats your take? When someone asks my wife what religion she is, she seems embarrassed to say she is a JW.
by goingthruthemotions inso thinking back about the times when someone has asked my wife what religion she is.
she sheepishly and seems almost embarrassed to say she is a jehovah witness.
when someone asks me, i just say i am a christian.

Curiosity killed the cat. It was a culmination of dissatisfaction, frustration, & other pent-up feelings that led me to scrutinize this religion more closely. It was then that I realized that things just didn't add up! For a while, I still tried to justify to myself that it was still "the truth", but that evaporated quickly. I can say that I woke up pretty fast (within months)
I quit service altogether quite abruptly. One day while out in service, my partner left me halfway to attend to something. I found myself standing dumbly in front of a door, and I just couldn't bring myself to knock on it without someone standing there besides me! That was when I realized that I couldn't do it any more! I am currently inactive for more than a year, with family still stuck in
P.S. - I am a born-in... never would have joined this stupid cult if I wasn't!

I was ashamed
by Happeanna ini was once a person who believed in god destroying 7 billion people so a few people could live in paradise.. when the penny finally dropped and i realised what as a jehovah's witnesses i was really praying for , it made me feel sick.
what is attractive about a person that prays for this world to end .
i was ashamed to have been a witness deeply ashamed .

stuckinarut2:
The parent was saying to her child "wont it be wonderful when Jehovah brings Armageddon soon!!?"
Another witness in the group simply smiled and agreed and added "YES, I cant wait for every single person we see in front of us to drop dead, even that little child and baby over there. Which one do you want to see killed first?"
(Of course he was being sarcastic, he must have known TTATT)Hey, I like this guy! Sounds like you are referring to yourself though. If not, whatever happened to him?
