Cult fear and indoctrination - Service Meeting -Respect Jehovah's Authority
by truthseeker inthe september kingdom ministry, for week beginning october 4, discusses the video "respect jehovah's authority.".
i have seen this video myself, and for those still on a guilt trip, it will serve to re-inforce that the society is backed by jehovah.
if you are in the organization and are on a collision course with the soverign of the universe then you need to develop your loyalty to jehovah .

Thank those who helped you out of the Org
by Nosferatu inhere's a thread for all of you to thank those who helped you make your way out of the org.
i'll start.. i'd like to thank my ex-fiance for the support that she had given me when i needed it the most.
when i was faced with the elders coming to give me a shepharding call, she had given me the encouragement to stand up to them, and tell them truly how i felt.

I would like to thank the brother who gave a talk at the Pontiac silver dome in June of 2000 who said that if you are happy with your life the way it is, "Stay off the internet", Don?t read anything that is negative about Jehovah?s witnesses. Curiosity killed the cat".
That was a very profound statement for me because it came at a time when I was wondering why they had to come out with a five-page insert in the Kingdom Ministry about the dangers of the Internet. It made me really start to think, "What do they have to hide?"
Before that I had stayed away from reading so-called "apostate" literature. (Like a good little dub).
I soon found out why they don?t want people on the Internet. Everything started falling into place. There are plenty of reasons why the society wants to keep its members in the dark. (An informed witness is soon an ex-witness.) It has been said so many times, "the Internet is the Watchtower's biggest enemy."
I would like to thank Raymond Franz for his books COC and ISOCF, which helped me greatly to see what this organization is all about.
I would like to thank Simon, Randy Watters, Kent, JanH, JanG and posters like Farkel, Zev, JT, Redhorsewoman, Larc, and many more.
Everyone who posts on these boards is doing a service to helping people get out of this organization.

Ok, Question: Was there a comment made at a meeting that finally convinced.
by New Castles inwas there a comment made at a meeting that finally convinced you, this is not right?
for me a couple of weeks ago was in the service meeting, they stated that if the children didnt finish their homework because they were studying the bible or at a meeting that teachers should understand that their meetings and study are more important.
i looked at my wife and went "what"??

Creators Promise in Awake.....?
by Paradise Found in.
the awake used to be published on the creators promise of.......before the generation of 1914 passed away.. does anyone no over what time-scale this promise was published?

Gary,
The Jan 8 1982 Awake is the first one to use the phrase ?the Creator?s promise of a peaceful and secure new order before the generation that saw the events of 1914 C.E. passes away.?
The November 8 1995 Awake is the first one to change the phrase to read ?the Creator?s promise of a peaceful and secure new world that is about to replace the present wicked, lawless system of things.?

Yes or No----Do You Believe That JWs Are A Cult?
by minimus ini believe they are "cultlike" but i don't think they are a "cult"........and you?

chester
Yes they are.....If they wern't they would not use tactics such as not associating with you when you leave.
Lapuce
I agree with Lapuce.
All you have to do is quit attending meetings and they will no longer associate with you.
