A few times I thought they would have me in the back room for things I said. The PO had me in the back room chewing my ass of when I was the account servant. That’s another story..

What do you believe now?
by NowImFree ini have been out of the jws officially for over 3 years now, since disassociating.
after researching the history of the organization and reading the bible (without) the watchtower, i am now a christian.
i am just curious what happens to most ex-jws as far as their beliefs go, after they leave the organization.

I definitely don't think organized religion is the answer. I believe a personal faith in Christ for salvation is the answer. Since I left the JWs and became Christian, I don't follow men anymore. My ultimate guidance is God through Christ and the bible. If someone who is a religious authority says something that I don't agree with or doesn't sound right to me, I take it with a grain of salt. I do go to church for the fellowship and I find it very encouraging and uplifting, but I follow my conscience and try to do what I think Christ would want me to do. Totally different mindset than when I was a Jehovah's Witness, I was worshipping and following a manmade organization and didn't even know it.
I read my bible daily and have taken my stand with Jesus Christ. I don't go to any church now. I have gotten under Jesus' yoke and will try to stay there. I identify myself as a Christian when someone wants to take on the conversation. I must say I have been unsuccessful in talking to any of the current witness. They all shut down when you discuss the bible with them. I feel sorry for them.

Be Industrious-Inherit the Promises
by Rooster in1 our study of the scriptures has revealed to us the many wonderful promises jehovah has made.
but who will inherit these?
the apostle paul, writing the hebrews, answers: "god is not unrighteous so as to forget your work and the love you showed for his name, in that you have ministered to the holy ones and continue ministering.

A funny thing I was talking a few years back to a brother and I ask him "will Jesus ask to see our time cards?" His answer was why yes. I said think about what you are saying. Do you think that Jesus does not know who you are and what you have been doing? Wake up!

A Letter From A Redneck Mother To Her Son
Dear Son,
I'm writing this slow 'cause I know you can't read fast. We don't live where we did when you left. Your dad read in the paper that most accidents happen within twenty miles of home, so we moved. Won't be able to send you the address as the last Arkansas family that lived here took the numbers with them for their house, so they wouldn't have to change their address.
This place has a washing machine. The first day I put four shirts in it, pulled the chain and haven't seen 'em since.
It only rained twice this week, three days the first time and four days the second time.
The coat you wanted me to send to you, Aunt Sue said it would be a little too heavy to send in the mail with them heavy buttons, so we cut them off and put them in the pockets.
We got a bill from the funeral home, and it said if we didn't make the final payment on Grandma's funderal bill, up she comes.
About your sister, she had a baby this morning. I haven't found out whether if it is a boy or a girl so don't know if you are an Aunt or Uncle.
Your Uncle John fell in the whiskey vat. Some men tried to get him out, but he fought them off playfully, so he drowned. We cremated him and he burned for three days.
Three of your friends went off the bridge in a pickup. One was driving and the other two were in the back. The driver got out. He rolled down the window and swam to safery. The other 2 drowned. They couldn't get the tail gate down.
Not much more news this time. Nothing much happened. If you don't get this letter, please let me know and I will send another one.
Love, Ma

Breast Feeding Blonde
A blonde woman is walking down the street, with her blouse open. A cop is approaching from about a block away, thinking, "Boy, my eyes must be going, it looks like that woman's right breast is hanging out."
As he gets closer it becomes apparent that her breast is hanging out. When he gets face to face with her he says, "Ma'am, are you aware I could cite you for indecent exposure?"
She says, "Why, officer?"
"Well, your breast is hanging out."
She looks down and says "OMIGOD, I left the baby on the bus!"

Breathe In Breathe Out
There was a blonde that went to the hair salon with headphones. Before the barber started cutting her hair she told him "Make sure not to knock the headphones off my head". So the barber was sure not to. The next time, the blonde said the same thing "Do not knock the headphones off my head". The barber again, did what he was told. The third time she went, she told the barber again "Don't knock the headphones off my head", this time though, the barber accidentally knocked them off. As soon as the headphones fell off, the blonde dropped to the floor unconcious. The barber picked up the headphones and listened, and this is what it said "Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out...."

Drowning In A Pickup
There were two brunettes in the front of a truck, and three blonds in the back. They rolled off a cliff into the ocean. The brunettes survived, but the blonds died. Why? They couldn't get the tailgate open.

"‘Woe to him who is multiplying what is not his own—O how long!—and who is making debt heavy against himself! 7 Will not those claiming interest of you rise up suddenly, and those wake up who are violently shaking you, and you certainly become to them something to pillage? 8 Because you yourself despoiled many nations, all the remaining ones of [the] peoples will despoil you, because of the shedding of blood of mankind and the violence to [the] earth, [the] town and all those dwelling in it.

Why Goatlike Ones Fail to Inherit the Kingdom
by Rooster inwhat disposition, however, is to be made of those people of "all the nations" who are likened to "goats" and who are separated to the kings left hand?
jesus continues on in his parable of the sheep and the goats to say: "then he will say, in turn, to those on his left, be on your way from me, you who have been cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels.
for i became hungry, but you gave me nothing to eat, and i got thirsty, but you gave me nothing to drink.

If you are not an active JW you are marked as bad association. So when it come to helping a stranger this does not fit into the program. "We look out for our own."
I Jesus showed up to the kingdom hall today they would call the police on Him!
