WOW!!! This forum Rocks.... Thanks everyone for your quick and thoughtful responses... as far as the Swaggart breif... my jaw is still on my lap! That's probably been the most difficult hurdle of my awaking. The realization that a super intelligent person like ME could be so stinking gullible! Pride definitely goeth before..............

What was "it" that opened your eyes?
by jiggulz inlike so many people, i'm (very carefully)trying to convey the obvious "truth" about the wtb&ts to some of the members of my family.
is there any key point that "stands out" in your memory as pivotal in the opening of your eyes?
or any particular point that may have opened the eyes of your loved ones?

Anyone ever try a "de-programming intervention"? (just kidding... I think?) Thanks, Gordon ...May God guide us in all things and never let our ignorance mislead our brothers.. Amen!

Hi... I'm totally new here... this is my first response/post etc... Dear Stilawitness, I think that your sincere decision about seeking to be pleasing to God is all you really need to start. As a witness you've been kept from the truth that Jehovah does send a(PERSONAL)helper(Romans 8:15)to those that honestly seek him and ask for his help. This is a free gift promised from Jesus to ALL who would seek to follow him. It was difficult for me but not beyond anything I could stand.... the comfort that came from God's faithful Spirit can make anything possible. Remember Paul and Silas singing while in prison(Acts 16:25)? God does give an inexpressble joy to those who sincerely seek him and his will (1 Peter 1:8). He will be with you and we (your Christian brothers and sisters) will be sharing your pain and joy. I was hidden from Jehovah's kindness by making the decision to follow the teahings of men.... It is Literal Bondage.... Once I became free, I finally understood John 8:32. I am praying for you as I finish writing this... May Jehovah God find favor with you, May Jesus Christ pleade you case before him, and may His Spirit dwell INSIDE of you, STRENGTHEN and COMFORT You. With all my Christian Love, Gordon Please feel free to contact me or my wife ...If you need any kind of help [email protected]
