i'm curious, why and how did you choose your username?.

does it hold any special significance for you, is there a share-able back story?.

for me sparrowdown is a playful reference to matt 10:29 and the title of the movie black hawk down.. matt 10:29 was my go-to scrip to "prove" that god cares about us as individuals.

Hi Everyone!

i haven't been here in quite a while and thought i'd pop by.

i do lurk at times, i confess lol.

after reading the recent publications at the new golden calf (jw.org), my mind is kind of blown that jw's are still not seeing through the constant adjustments, clarifications, new light and reversals.

DOC.....That is why my username is GoingThruTheMotions.......I really is a sad state of affairs. My blinders are completely off and my wifes blinders are still on and I don't see her ever seeing the BORG for what it really is. But I keep going to the meetings to keep the peace and just go thru the motions.

For those of you that LEFT.....

by DocHouse in

...did you also toss your faith as well?.

goingthruthemotions

DocHouse: are you currently an active Jehovah witness? if so are you an elder or an MS? How long have you been a JW?

If you are an active witness....are you counting your time while you post here?

earlier you said you express how you feel openly....correct?

now is that expression only on this website or other apostate websites? or do you have the balls to actually tell a C.O., P.O or elders how you feel?

If you truely express your opinion to these people you would be disfellowshipped or at the least reproved with your tail between your legs.

You see DocHouse....it's easy to be a tough guy behind your keyboard.....but it takes ball and true conviction to standup for what you believe.

Shalom.....

this is my first time posting here, although i have been a visitor to it for around a year.

after doing a simple google search under "jehovah'switnesses" over a year ago, i found ttat.

i was deeply unhappy with the congregation and decided to educate myself, and boy what an education i have gotten so far.

Marked for possible later use......never know.

Questions From Readers : Did Jesus preach to the dead people of Noah's days?

by raymond frantz in

sorry guys i posted that the other day but with some of the actual post missing ,here it is again .please feel free to find errors,raise questions or fill me in with any more valueable information on the matter .i don't claim to know it all i'm just someone who's constantly looking for answers as most of you here :.

did jesus preach to the dead souls of people from noahs days?what does 1 peter 3:19, 20 mean?

in this state [in the spirit, following his resurrection] also he [jesus] went his way and preached to the spirits in prison, who had once been disobedient when the patience of god was waiting in noahs days, while the ark was being constructed, in which a few people, that is, eight souls [souls, kj, dy; people, tev, jb; persons, rs], were carried safely through the water.

144,000 New Light update

by goingthruthemotions in

i updated the list of partakers to 2013 (see below)...if i was to predict as to what new light might be coming down the borg poop shoot may be.

i would predict that they need to do something about the 144,000 being a literal number.. for two reasons:.

1. the number of partakers is increasing every year.

goingthruthemotions

I got the figures from the 2012 watchtower library and the JW.org website. took some research but it's there. after 1991 finding the information was harder because the writers or the GB didn't have much orignization that i could tell.

I updated the list of partakers to 2013 (see below)...if I was to predict as to what new light might be coming down the BORG POOP SHOOT may be. I would predict that they need to do something about the 144,000 being a literal number.

for two reasons:

1. the number of partakers is increasing every year. ( how does the BORG explain this? They can't so they will come with new light "Oh we were given divine new insight and interpetation, the 144000 is not a literal number....nix the anointed and give all power to the FDS as Gods sole line of communication! and everyone partake if you feel your conciouse will let you.) (NOT)

2. the amount of money that was spent the last 3 years was astronomical. (see below)

1992 Borg spent $45,218,257.56 to pay for special pioneers, missionaries and TO’s
2011 BORG spent over 173 million for special pioneers, missionaries, and TO’s and not mentioned is the amount of money it takes to run a website. i.e.to be high up on all the searches cost a lot of money
2012 Borg spent over 184 million for special pioneers, missionaries, and TO’s and not mentioned is the amount of money it takes to run a website. i.e.to be high up on all the searches cost a lot of money
2013 Borg spent over $200 million for special pioneers, missionaries, and TO’s and not mentioned is the amount of money it takes to run a website. i.e.to be high up on all the searches cost a lot of money

Look at the difference between 1992 and 2012 the cost has quadrupled. Am I to believe the special pioneers and missionaries and TO's get that kind of cost of living over 10 years? Where is the money going? Freaking Theives!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With all the lawsuits and having to pay for a new golden calf JW.ORG and the other stuff.....they can't afford to loose people. It is no wonder why they are selling off so much of there properties.

Please remember ALL.....IT'S A FREAKING CULT and CORPORATION!!!!!!! THEY ARE NOT WORRIED ABOUT SALVATION....THEY ARE WORRIED ABOUT MONEY and CONTROL!

The Anointed, the Numbers and the GB

by thinker in

have you ever considered the anointed, the number of partakers at the memorial and the governing body together?

if you examine the number of partakers you can clearly see that sometimes the numbers increase.

i asked some jws about this and their reply was, "those are replacements for unfaithful ones".

Daughter Learns TTATT Thanks to Her Loving Family

by cultBgone in

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycb9blknu2g&list=uuzxbfewkkmm36zfo1xfkm7g.

this is a video from 1990 that waas posted about four years ago on randy watter's youtube channel.

it's long but reveals the emotions one experiences as they wake up and realize how much they've been misled and lied to by the organization who claimed to represent god.. thankfully jennifer's dad never gave up trying to give her a rewarding and fulfilling life.
