Do you have any 'holdover' beliefs?

by AllAlongTheWatchtower in

after reading and responding recently to a post about eating pork and clean and unclean meats, and also a few about newfound freedoms and pleasures that some enjoy now that they are out of the jws, i got to wondering if there is anything like that on the flip side of the coin.

in other words, despite you leaving the wts, is there anything you still believe that they taught, even though you left or were forced out, and no longer believe the rest of the jw doctrine?.

i was never a jw, but i was raised in a rather similar group called the worldwide church of god, many of the controls, strictures, and abuses that i saw as a child there, i see posted about here-though they are different, they are also the same.

When you say its hard to believe one person is playing three different roles,yes that is hard to believe but we are not talking about just plain ol' people we are talking about OUR GOD! The Father The Son and The Holy Spirit arent just ordinary people.ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH GOD! They are all equal but they play different role.

I attend a Baptist church and I'm learning it their way.I work with a couple of JW and time to time we have our disagreements I believe it is a cult in many ways.The people I work with they seem to have no joy in their life always so doom and gloom and I ask what did you learn this week at the Kingdom Hall.When I go to church we Praise the Lord just like the bible says and I think thats were alot of the joy comes in.Where does Jesus Christ come in in a JW life. I always here them Thanking Jehovah yes thank GOD but thank Jesus also he died for us.We are all sinners so celebrating holidays and BDays doesnt make you any worse a sin is a sin.Its all part of the cult its just one way to be different then everyone else.
