Just dropped the bomb

by Powermetal4ever in

after a long struggle with myself, i did send a sms to my mother this morning, telling her i didn't want to go to the meeting, and that i no longer believe in the organisation, don't really believe in god any more either but i put that out.

i wrote about three things that i thought are obvious, the overlapping generation that doesn't make sense, the flood an the animals in australia- how they came there.

and jw tv that makes them look as any other religion.

I truly wish you the very best. I hope your mom comes around and actually recognizes the validity of your argument.

Let the bible speak and leave the explaining to her.

For those of you who is contemplating leaving the Borg, consider...

by James Mixon in

i know it's not easy for you to walk it's a big decision, family and etc.. if you are afraid consider this.

i have been here for a few years and i can count on one hand from posters who made the statement, i can't take it anymore, i'm going back.. what is it that members here have given up their family and friends to be free.

is it so we can have sinful fun, we are our own person and no one will tell us what to do?.

Many members when leaving the mental confines of the WTS self-destruct due to the overwhelming freedom they have instantly acquired. I say many, as there as just as many if not more, many more, who are sincere Christians looking for the truth. Those that do self-destruct is due to being mentally free but also to 'try' the things they were prohibited from doing for so many years. Many of these people if they survive their initiation/experimental stage, will usually revert back to being God fearing persons.

I personally could not see myself going back to something I know is false. It's just not in me to worship to the tune of false prophets. If I did, what would Jehovah say? What would Christ say? How did Jehovah feel when his loyal servants worshiped what they knew was false? It is worse now that the GB has revamped the Organization book where they fall all over each other trying to explain how a governing body DID exist and operate in biblical times. That's hogwash and the explanations offered in the book I personally, have taken them apart in a matter of minutes.

The org has continued to morph into the beast that it is today and from the looks of it, the GB is clamping down on their authority not asking members but rather demanding loyalty of them bible scripture be damn. It's sort of shocking to see so many teachings twisted and accepted by the majority as truth although they will change later on. I hope to live to see the day when Jehovah/Yahweh/God brings this monster down and introduces the pure unadulterated biblical teachings where members are free to worship without someone telling them where, how, and when.

I don't know if the recent developments is God rendering divine justice but it does look like it and the GB is now scrambling and battening down the hatches.

Bottom line, I pray for all the sincere brothers and sisters who have been swindled and taken captive by these ungodly men.

been reading for about 2 and a half years, thought i would take the plunge and sign up.. my circumstances... i live in uk, serving as ms. i am fully awake.

i can not leave due to family, so just treating the meetings as a bit of a social club.

i would like to give out more details, but i think you all know the drill.. complete disillusionment and i suppose natural curiosity woke me up.. don't know what else to say right now, just hello, and i hope to get to know some of you guys better.

Welcome Old Major! Glad to see another person awake. Wish you the very best.

Another great video of someone waking up!!! Using our "thinking mind"

by Olivia Wilde in

i love the fact what he said about reading crises of conscious: if you read that book as a jw and still think the wt has the truth, something is wrong with you....the song played at the end is simply classic and very appropriate.

WT Society SEC Records : Hedge Funds, Cayman Islands, Financial Losses - Links

by flipper in

so my wife and i were curious so i researched some financial links and found records indicating that the wt society has been operating at a loss since the year 2012. as you read the links it shows a loss of 10 million $$$ in 2012, about 16 million $$$ in 2013, and a whopping loss of 56 million $$$ in 2014 - where the expenditures exceeded the revenues for each of those years in the amount i've mentioned.

also there is a link on this same website with the sec records indicating that the wt society and it's representatives funneled 40 million $$$$ into hedge funds in the cayman islands as early as 2007. if you look online on other sites you can see evidence that indicates the wt society attended hedge fund conferences to look into more shadiness in 2011 and isn't it curious that by 2012 the wt society started showing losses.

anyway here is the link : https://www.watchtowerlies.com/the_watchtower_revenue.html .. feel free to check this link out and other links on that link indicating the cayman island connection.

A call from family - Armageddon this month!

by kaik in

i very seldom receive a call from my jw siblings, i mean seldom.

i can count them on my hand in past 10 years.

while we talk about mom a lot and i am in touch with her, i was very surprised when i received this call.

Tenacious

If I hear any of this in my area or from anyone, I'll bet them the house.

It reminds me of the KM that said that year's Memorial might be the last one.

How much fall-out can we expect?

by DATA-DOG in

so the wtbts ( the gb and the branch, aka lawyers and puppet masters ) have decided to end "special pioneering" for some, if not all of the order.

there is no way to accurately predict the fall-out, but it's potentially huge!

jws, for the most part, are under educated, sheltered, unprepared, frightened humans.

Tenacious

Yep, time to cut the fat....except the pigs in Brooklyn are exempt. That is, the very fat pigs in Brooklyn.
