  The Watchtower preparing to become Mainstream?

  by lovelylil in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have heard a few active witnesses comment recently about the wt quoting more frequently from sources from other church denominations.

  i know they have done this in the past, but it seems from the rank & file that it is happening even more.. has anyone heard about this trend?

  also, do you think the tower is preparing those in the rank & file to accept new light regarding christendom (such as that they do teach some truth), and how do you think this will affect people?.

  name calling and bullying in the name of religion

  by lovelylil in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i know myself, although i have not been disrespectful to anyone and have tried to enter conversations explaining my beliefs only, not to put anyone elses beliefs down, have been called self righteous, condescending, a hypocrite and tiresome today.. i had a similiar problem at another site and chose to leave because it was not encouraging.. come on everyone, lets listen to reason here.

  many of us have been thru a literal hell of the wt organization.

  and have had our lives in total turmoil because of it.

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a friend of mine recently told me that she had committed this "act of revenge" on an elders wife once.

  i know the elders wife too and she is such a snoody-nose in the air, my family is better than yours person.

  both her boys grew up witnesses and are in the org.

  what say ye about this quote?

  by lovelylil in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was looking at some old wt articles and i found this quote.

  i thought it was pretty ironic, what say ye?.

  the vatican belittles bible study by claiming it is the only organization authorized and qualified to interpret the bible.

  New to the forum - want to introduce myself

  by lovelylil in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  hi my name is lillian and i am posting for my first time.

  i was a witness along with my husband and two children for 12 years and gave in my letter of disasociation about a year and a half ago.

  i have struggled with the guilt of bringing my family in contact with the witnesses (i have always been a bible searcher) and i am only coming to terms with this recently.. i now consider myself a born again believer in christ jesus and read my bible daily to check and see what is true.
