9) What, though, if we are not convinced that in a certain case the elders' direction is the best way of doing things? That is where submission comes into play. It is easy to obey when everything is clear and we agree, but we will show that we are truly s ubmissive if we yield even when we do not personally understand the direction provided. Peter, who later became an apostle, showed this kind of submission .-Luke 5:4, 5.
MIND CONTROL!

Why 6 Billion People Deserve to Die in Armageddon
by Leolaia injehovah is such a righteous, merciful, loving god -- slow to anger, overflowing with loving kindness and blessing.
yet it somehow bothers many of you that he will shortly execute his judgment on mankind and wipe out 99.9% of the world's population, as if that somehow is supposed to conflict with his loving qualities.
personally, i have no idea why many of you feel this way.

This was one of the things that bothered me when I was reading those delightful stories to my wee girl. These beliefs are filth! Plain and simple. People who stick to the beliefs are cruel, heartless and vile individuals. And yes, I was another person who always seemed to be treated better by evil worldly people than the 'brothers'. I wish I'd left years before I did.

Can I ask, not being from England, where are they getting the 60 million from?

The prodical son-Who do the Witness resemble?
by avidbiblereader infunny now that i read the bible without any man made ideas, this thought hit me in luke 15:20-24, remember this is one of the basis for "reinstatement" into the "christian congregation".
is the year basis of coming back after attending weekly meetings really neccassary?
also note that paul most likely written both 1st and 2nd corithians within a year span.

Had this exact conversation with a JW.
She simply said; the son who came back was repentant. People are not d/f`d if they are repentant.
They have an answer for EVERYTHING!
But yes, in my opinion, they are all like the hard hearted brother.
Just a shame that they can't see it!

Im so happy. Despite my JW past and JW family
by jambon1 into have freedom of mind was what i always wanted.
it so simple really, yet something that i was denied for a full 10 years in the org.
the mindset cripled me, depressed me, stifled me, estranged me from my non jw family, very nearly killed me.

To have freedom of mind was what I always wanted. It so simple really, yet something that I was denied for a full 10 years in the org. The mindset cripled me, depressed me, stifled me, estranged me from my non JW family, very nearly killed me. If you look at my post history, like most on here, you will see that I have been through a very broad range of emotions in the last year or so.
So today, I sit and analise things.
Despite the many trials of a divided home, I am free! As I said, it was all I wanted. I used to look at people. People like my non JW family (I was the only one in), and all I wanted was some of that. Freedom to simply be true to myself. Trying to reconcile my thoughts to that of the WTS was very difficult for me to do. I simply didn't believe it all. So, trying to set the lead as an M/S and father of 2 was killing me. I was suicidal at one point. Such a shame for a young guy like me to be in this state. I had so much to enjoy and yet I couldn't. Shame on me for not acting sooner.
Today, I rejoice in the years I have ahead of me. I have used my freedom to be a responsible person. To be a loving and great father, to show true love to all whom I come into contact with. To be happy in what I can provide for my family.
Not to depress myself at what I am not doing. The 'nothing is ever good enough' attitude of the WTS just kills the soul.
I love life. I am for the first time in a long time steadying myself and enjoying the simple things.
Bliss!

KT Tunstall - Eye to the telescope. "When the fire fades away, most of every day is full of tired excuses, but it's too hard to say, I wish it were simple, but we give up easily, your close enough to see that you are the other side of the world to me". Makes me upset a bit but sums up how I feel about me and my loved ones in the truth.
