  Was it EX JW literature / WT's or the BIBLE which woke you up? Post scriptures if any....

  by EndofMysteries in

  i considered myself immune to ex jw stuff.

  no amount of old watchtowers or anything would change me.

  it was seeing treatment of others by elders and the bible itself, which woke me.

  Is the Jehovah’s Witnesses organization really a cult?

  by Etude in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  im sure the question has been brought up before on this board and i imagine that for many of us the answer is patent.

  however, i recently saw a documentary on pbs regarding the mormons and it stated categorically that the church of jesus christ of latter day saints is not a cult.

  given that it has its own set of strangeness and history of revision as has the wtbts, could it also (the jw) be considered a main stream, although minor religion?.

  What exactly do Jehovah's Witnesses believe?

  by chashathaway in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i hear a lot, both on this forum and elsewhere, about all kinds of things jehovah's witnesses believe.

  but i've never felt that outsiders were a good source of information about what faithful watchtowers actually believe.

  in fact, i've discovered that the worst source of information about a religion is from those who were members but left the faith.

  What makes an apostate...

  by IronHill in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  an apostate for witnesses?.

  i only ask because we have had several conversations with family members who want to make sure we have not become "apostates".

  a rumor has been going around that we have become, sign carrying, picketing kh's attending, leaflet printing apostates.

  who had a child molester in their congregation ?

  by looloo in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i have done this thread a long time ago , but a few newbies have joined recently and may have had some experiances to share , there was 2 in the congregation i was involved with (i was a "study" ) one was from bethel in america and got deported after his prison sentence and the other was reprooved for abuse then carried on abusing in the congregation , years later he abused my daughter and after i found out i reported him to the police , but he had got off "scot free" for 20 years untill i reported him .

  i believe the one from bethel was reported to the police simply because elders kids were affected ..

  "We're not here to convince you this is the truth."

  by sd-7 in

  those were the words of an elder during my judicial committee.

  it's weird that they suddenly came to me, weeks later.

  i can't help recalling the disappointment i felt when i heard that.

  There were four elders that met with my son and my son told them, "Surely one of you can show me were I am wrong." They told him they couldn't. My son is now an Apostate.

  What would you consider as evidence that JWs have "The Truth"?

  by Tuesday in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the questions i ask jws before discussing anything with them is:.

  "what facts, evidence or otherwise would you consider as proof that jehovah's witnesses are not the true religion?".

  i thought it was unfair to simply ask that of them so i figured i'd answer a similar question:.

  an open letter to jehovahs witnesses.

  you may not remember, but i know you very well.

  i met you a long time ago when you came to my house with your smiling faces, your neat clothes, and your soft voices and a bible tucked neatly under your arm.

  "you lied about me, but no one will believe you LIED because they trust you-" How true that is. When the Elders talked to me, they went to my Daughter and told lies on me. And like the letter, she believed them not me.
