Two Witness principle

by Rattigan350 in

one thing that i agree with is the two or more witness principle.. i have an experience to tell why.. at work for lunch i go to my car and eat and read emails on my laptop (since i can't bring my laptop in).

one day a hr director and my director told me about an occasion where i was in my car and a woman went out to her car that was next to me and left for lunch.

she came back and pulled in a spot and saw that i was in my car to the left of her and what came to her mind was that i must have just pulled in after her and she felt uncomfortable with that and thinking that i was following her and she went to security.

Blondie's Watchtower quote said, "Since she is part of the clean Christian congregation" but how can the congregation be clean when it allows accused and convicted pedophiles to sit in its midst?

How about people who have been publicly and privately reproved for committing acts the Watchtower Society say are gross sins?

How can Jehovah's Witnesses claim to be in a "clean congregation" when they totally ignore 1 Corinthians 5:13 which commands them to Put away the evil person from among yourselves?

i have been lurking and reading for a couple weeks now.

i love the topics and it has inspired me to say hello to all my fellow apostates.

i was awakened to how my family feels about me and my wife shortly after the international assembly.

Hi SpeedRacer!

Don't worry too much about your conditional JW family because some of the younger ones may wake up and realize what they are involved.

You'll find plenty of friends on this apostate board who will accept you as you are.

Are Jehovah's Witnesses THAT Bad?

by minimus in

i'm not fond of any religious fanatic.

islamic fundies can be downright crazy.

mormonism seems silly to me.

Honesty

They have the truth and belong to Jerhover's only approved religious organization.

They are being led to waters of righteousness by the 7 member faithful and discreet slave whom Jesus appointed in uh, uh, 1919.

They obey God's commandments given to Moses and follow the Governing Body's interpretation of it faithfully.

How can any of them be bad?

Copy of my DA Letter

by airborne in

friends

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.

Honesty

And that's just the way it is.

The organisation has kicked Jesus in the head and replaced Him with the 'faithful and discreet slave' AKA the 7 popes on the Governing Body.

Those false prophets are deceiving 7 million people and will surely burn in hell forever for their blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.

I say good riddance to them and all they represent.

Why was such a GREAT, GREAT, GREAT thing as Internet not foretold in the Bible?

by Pinku in

jws claim that even such a small thing as proclaiming 1986 as the international year for peace was foretold in the bible.

this raises the question: why was such a great thing as internet (the influence of which could not even be compared with anything in the history at all) not foretold in the bible?

with internet and tv the world has become literally a global village!.

Honesty

I believe you nailed it, James Brown.

More people than ever before are finding out the truth about an evil cult from the comfort of their homes within minutes of being contacted by Jehovah's Witnesses.

so my husband and i are on vacation.

we are in another country visiting his non-jw family.

we lived here for many years, and our closest jw friends are all here, albeit a 4 hr.

Compare your childrens' lives to what you had.

It will give a preview of what you can have too because it is not too late for you and your husband to explore new things.

Letter of Reinstatement

by kayanow in

i'm new to this website and i thought i'd create a profile.

i was disfellowshipped in july of 2013 in another city.

i since moved and starting going to meeting about 6 months ago in my new city.

Honesty

Good luck on your journey.

Do you believe that Jehovah's Witnesses are the only true religious group on earth and that they alone have God's approval?

the writer of AnointedJW : another master of pomposity?

by opusdei1972 in

as i have read before, one of the members of this forum noted that the writer of the website anointedjw is a master of pomposity.

i am not against them, as i am with jw.org (the watchtower society), but i see that they are trying to imitate the language of the old testament prophets.

for instance, this is what they have recently written:.

It sounds like the demunz have infiltrated it.

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

Sparks,

Your demon Watchtower god is no match for my Lord and savior, Jesus.

Have a nice life.

Your body is your PRIMARY TEACHER (a God-appointed channel is nowhere in the picture)

by Pinku in

balance is the natural state of your body and is maintained by moderation in your habits such as sleep, work, eating, entertainment and thinking.

(mathew7:12; 5:13-16; proverbs 25:16, 27; 1 cor 6:12; 8:9; philippians 4:5) your body sends signs of distress when you cross the limit.. this is true even in subtler areas too.

contrary to the popular notion that happiness or peace come from accumulating things, body teaches it comes from renunciation.
