To maintain your continued existence in the JW movement, my suggestion to you would be to do EXACTLY what the leadership tells you to do, without either comment, or dissent. But, and this is a big but, PRETEND that you are doing those things because you thought of them.
HELL NO!
I Only obey Gods Law except when Scriptures direct to obey mans law!
And I don't have any problem telling Elder or Overseers , Or any other authority in the JW congregation.

If you are happy with the JWS that's great.. but God didn't lead you there.. because the JWS are not god inspired.. they are run by a bunch of egotistical men who write dribble they call Bible publications and then brainwash their members into selling them from door to door.. for jusst a small contribution to the society.. of courseThen you need to reread your Bible if you think that.

Well here's the thing.
You do not mention once there being a Bible anywhere in this mix. Years later we got a knock on our door and a female and male were reading to me something from a black book. Then I noticed A revelation book. And ask where they got that book. And ask if I could have that black book at first they refused then decided they could replace the black book and let me have it.
And made appointment to return and I accepted eagarly.
And Have not ever had regrets.
P.s. that was my very first time of learning of this bible book exisitence. You think God lead you to them where as I understand you were molested by a JW? Why are you stateing these lies? So was I. Sorry to hear that about you! Do you really think GOD lead you to a RELIGION where molestors are not only protected but get free legal protection from the WTBTS? Whatever
Respectfully~Kate UMMMM, Where is the respect here!

JW - do you mean this is the first time you've had access to the bible? No, only during that part of my life. I perfer these bibles: Click here: Hebrew Bible in English / Mechon-Mamre Click here: Search for 'John 6:63' in the Greek/English Interlinear (tr) NT version I encourage you to seek out what other religons teach as well. As stated earlier that was a small part of ( MY) life. I and my family have had experience with ( Catholic, Baptist, Trinity, 7th day Adventist, Methodist, Lutheran, Mormon Latterday saints, Pentecaostal, Etc..............! The JW's teach that other religons teach all sorts of things. I believed it for many years. Then I went to another church and found none of it to be true. Really???? Cause I can post some of the other religious teachings .
Do as the bereans in the bible did AND were commended for - keep testing these things to make sure they are true. Duh, thats a given here!
Don't take anything at face value. Again, DUH !

So even though you had seven kids you'd never heard of the bible before? What planet are you from again? I shared this part of my life in kind. As a child I was raised Catholic and I never once seen a Bible and it was never mentioned. It is what it is!

How did you cope?
by Zico inwhen you found out that this religion probably wasn't the one true religion like you had believed probably for a large portion of your life, or maybe even all of it, how did you react?
my whole life belongs to the society.
all my friends are witnesses, my family are witnesses, even my job is dedicated to the society.

All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness,2 Timothy 3:16 9
And this is what I continue praying, that YOUR love may abound yet more and more with accurate knowledge and full discernment; Philippians 1:8
1 Faith is the assured expectation of things hoped for, the evident demonstration of realities though not beheld Hebrews 11:1
30 and you must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind and with your whole strength.’ 31 The second is this, ‘You must love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” Mark 12:30,31
4 whose will is that all sorts of men should be saved and come to an accurate knowledge of truth. 1 Timothy 2:4
This will bring faith in time!
You don't need a church or congregation if you read the bible and pray for these things.
