  An important message from a PRACTICING Jehovah's witness

  by Sparks in

  2. friends

  hi, i am also a practicing jehovah's witness and very proud of it,to say the very-very least..!

  i am a middle-aged man with many decades of being a witness of jehovah god in england.. this important letter is personally to you, just as many of the bible's 88 letters are to be taken personal by you the reader.

  i am writing to you to urge you to take stock of your life, think what your future holds for you.

  Sparks just needs some solid reasons from JWN to leave the WT. There you have it.

  LOL!!! Ding's comment is spot on and funny.

  Today, an elder asked me if I had studied this WT and I said no and he started having pep talks about how there's a need for young men to serve and I told as I have told before that I don't want any "position" in this org and that's MY personal decision. He then said that means i am opposing Jah. I was like whaaat. I still told him no doesn't seem like opposition to me...he sounded offended.

  Why do they like making everyone who doesn't have a "privilege" guilty? Makes me sick. Nothings good enough. You must grow endlessly to your full potential...as if spirituality is a competition

  if you are an elder or an ex-elder please add a comment.

  i hope that the governing body will see this.

  it is too bad it has to be on an anonymous forum.

  This is a brilliant letter! Salute to you former elder who wrote this letter. You are honored with the badge of upholding the principles of the bible as against principles of men! Oh what a cult I was born into. :(

  How Did A Proven "Fake," "Phony" Arrangement ["governing body"] ...Become The "Faithful & Discreet Slave" Arrangement???

  by Littleleslie in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  question:.

  how did a proven "fake," "phony" arrangement [like "governing body" arrangement]...become the "faithful & discreet slave" arrangement???.

  so then if it can be proven, the "governing body" term and arrangement is a farce, a fake, a made-up nonscriptural arrangement itself, (made up and concocted by nathan knorr & frederick franz in 1944) then how can this fake arrangement now suddenly become the "faithful & discreet slave" that jesus spoke of?

  I tried explaining the flawed logic behind this governing body arrangement to my JW cousin and sister and I was amazed at the level of mind control they are in. Every reasoning they gave was because of the watchtower and they didn't even know it. They just couldn't see that the circumsion issue led to an ad hoc committee being formed to address that particular issue. Just simple contextual logic, they couldn't fathom. That tells you the sheer amount of control Watchtower has over innocent peoples minds

  for those still "in" what's the mood

  in my area the general sense is bleak.

  many are in survival mode.

  even at the convention the appearance of the majority was unhappy and tired.

  I'm still in. In my Cong, its all made up of hypocrites and attention-seeking people who come to put on a show in the Cong. I do have nice friends there and yes because I'm a born-in I go to meetings like it's a ritual just like any other christian. It's no different from when I was born except that I'm "awake" to reality.

  Welcoming International Delegates for London 2014 IC

  by Da.Furious in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i had the pleasure of joining jw's on the weekend to greet the international delegates who are attending the london 2014 international convention at twickenham.. nothing interesting, just waiting for someone with a badge to come through the doors and all will cheer!

  the interesting part is how they are behaving:.

  1- the overseer: looked really bored, trying to impress surroundings by talking loud and how he can talk to immigration and check on passengers.

  All these nice people being controlled by 7 or 8 men....appalling. The love they think their showing is a "forced love" not a real love

  My JW friend turned down the "privilege" of working the literature table at the park. Why?

  i have written before about my jw friend that plays hookie with me on sundays.

  we skip the meeting and go straight to lunch and margaritas.

  she converted later in life and has been a jw for over 25 years.. she is in her late 70's and has had heart problems.

  I like this old lady!. The metropolitan witnessing thing is pointless to me. All the pioneers do is all day and some even sleep . and at the end they get to write many hours and books just to show they are doing the "greatest work" ever. Smh. Didn't Jesus say not to show your righteousness on front of people?

  I'm thinking you think your life is a mess because your whole life and contacts revolved around the watchtower and because of that strong connection it seems to you you are really missing something. But the thing is, many JWs have messy lives. A messy life is independent of religious organization. But, if you really think you want to go back its your choice. But for me, learning about the real truth has given a sense of inner peace through Jesus. I hope you find that, any choice you make. In the end it's your personal conscience that should guide you whether to go back or not, weighing all the costs and benefits to YOU.

  Will the WT get a twitter account?

  by bohm in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  with the recent success of the website which really seem to be working beyond at least my expectations, will the wt get a twitter account in the near(ish) future?.

  those who guess right win the bragging rights.

  my guess is no since twitter invite to much discussion, however they will eventually jump on a popular twitter-like social media service when one arise that is more easily controlled..

  Lol. I've also speculated on them having Facebook or twitter. If they really want the preaching work to go on well, they really have to explore these avenues. But as they fear apostates so much I don't think they'll ever do it. They always want to be different .
