  ever wonder how some of those brothers wrote such elloquent talks?

  i just found out ( puternut told me) their wives wrote them for them.

  that must be why they always clapped so loud for their husbands!

  MAKE THE TRUTH YOUR OWN pg 191

  The way of the truth is the best way of living

  No better way can there be found

  Christ Jesus has taught us the value of giving...

  That happiness spreads all around

  Make the truth your own

  To bad ways do not be prone

  Putting on the armor God supplies

  You make known that the truth is your own.....

  We were told to sing this song loud, strong, and proud...I actually like this song....even though it's a bunch of________.....but I guess thats why I remember the first verse like that....but the two memorial theme songs, "The Lords Evening Meal" and "Hail Jehovah's First Born" I know like the back of my hand...I can sing them w/o the book.....scary isn't it....the melodies have NOTHING on pure gospel music....if you wanna know and feel good about God..try it....emotions will soar!!!!

  How did you actually envision Paradise?

  by freedom96 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there was always the talk of the new order, or new system.. but did you ever take the time to wonder what it would really be like?.

  would it look like it big park?

  would it be country like, with acres of land per home?

  to be honest, i never could envision it...so hard for me to separate this life to the ones they betray on the pics...it was always a shortage of black people so i really thought my chances were slim then!!!!

  I think it's a shame that some of us still feel compelled to make excuses and lie for these people. If you are no longer a prisoner (the real word for a JW believer) then let them have it!!!!...Let them know that you no longer believe what they believe..you are free and you don't love them any less...then that will teach them...sure to them you will be the plague and the heathen of the earth but u won't have to make any unecessary and inconvenient accomodations!

  "Aren't all the talks boring as hell when you're away from them for a while"?

  I thought that it was a requirement for them to be boring!! They are ALWAYS boring. I went to visit two years ago to the Memorial and to the meeting. Once my aunt kept calling me the prodigcal son, I knew I was through for good!!!! He came back for the well being of himself, I left for the well being of myself!!!!

  Are you still "hurt" from your JW experience?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  .

  i was just wondering if you still feel hurt or some kind of interior pain from your jw days or is it all passed and you have no more feelings towards this organization.... i still feel "hurt" and let down... .

  afterall, they were friends, and now they just don't care anymore.

  Although I miss my friends, I feel content knowing that the few I had are all free from the JW lifestyle....but I feel sorry for the ones who have closed their minds....I also pity for the hypocrites...they do all they can to proclaim themselves as "Christians" or the chosen ones, but they fail to realize that the guidelines they follow so closely are the exact things that are blocking their blessings and going against what God really wants them to do......
