yes- everyone has faults and makes mistakes; an organization even more so.. yet, you ignore all the fingers pointing at you.. many here have no faith.
many here go to churches who lie about everything biblical; look at x-mas!.
but at least we know god and christ and try to live up to their name!.
I'm a practising, appointed JW, before you throw the atheist label at me. You might have seen me give a talk at your local assembly, or I may have baptised you."
Sure looks like an act of desperation just being on this site. Its hard for me to tell whether your a snot nosed kid or a member of the governing body?
i finally made it back here to our great forum community!.
after a few issues trying to get used to the new format, and after a few sign in issues, i'm back.... (sorry to simon for anything i may have done to complicate it.
i started a new username...which has since been deleted).
i mean, anyone with a real bible and half a brain doesn't need to log onto a website and read nonsense.. its not a bible study when you present someone a book or magazine to read along in.. its not the gospel, when its not about jesus.
so what is being pushed in the service meeting to be done at doors?.
and with what result expected?
The last witnesses at my door just left me a tract and said they were presenting them in the neighborhood they said and their free! It was just a couple of barely 20 something, sisters.
Christmas eve day I was sitting in my man cave downstairs and the doorbell rang and by the time I got upstairs there was nobody there, I then heard the automatic garage door open and and my wife drove her car in and she said there were a couple of older gentlemen here. What did they want ? I said I don't know they were gone pretty fast and there was a tract in the mail box.
The dubs around here don't know me btw.
this is going around the kingdom halls now, i thought it was a hoax but are not all the end time dates produced by the organization some hoax or con?
the reason why the end did not come in 1975 was the watchtower society had not put eve's creation in their equation.
i was told when we had a "meet and greet" if "we knew the date of eve's creation we would know the year jehovah was going to destroy the earth.. it's been 40 years since 1975, can you believe it's been 40 years since "stay alive till 1975!"?
2015 marks 30 years of being out of the jehovah's witness cult.
when i was first kicked out it was scary as hell and lonely being shunned by family and others in a small town.
i was a young man then with my whole life ahead of me.
2015 marks 30 years of being out of the jehovah's witness cult. When I was first kicked out it was scary as hell and lonely being shunned by family and others in a small town. I was a young man then with my whole life ahead of me. I am so glad that I didn't try to get reinstated (the elders made sure that wasn't possible anyway). I now have a beautiful wife and family and am semi retired in my 50's.That would have never happened if I had not left it all behind.
I am being purposely vague here so I don't reveal my identity before my mother dies. After she dies or Armageddon which ever comes first lol I'll post my whole story.
As far as I can tell I don't know why anyone would stay in the truth with all the information available today if they had a way out. I realize some are trapped in because of family, some are ego maniacs others a just plain deluded. My message is for the young rank and file witnesses, Be respectful of your parents especially if your living under their roof and still respect them even after you leave even if they shun you, they are still your parents. But don't sacrifice your life to the business model of the wtbts. I have seen many posters on here with deep regrets after slaving for this org.
there is a tribe in west african called the dogon, their mythology states that their gods came from a dark star that orbits around sirius.
they claim this star went nova then condensed so that its now super dense.
they have on their cave walls drawings of jupiter and its 4 moons and saturn with its rings.
Have we ever been visited by aliens? Recently I was at a museum at Thule AFB Green Land where they claim they have fossilized evidence of the oldest amino acids found on earth inside of a meteor. Meteors are easily found there though because of the terrain. Who knows what fossilized evidence lays beneath the world's oceans?
Maybe the aliens are us and by us I mean all life on earth!
i've been toying with an idea that i think just might have some legs.
so here i am trotting it out for all of you to consider and comment upon.
for many of us, we are extremely frustrated by the fact that we have no way to communicate with our loved ones still stuck in the organization.
if ebola got to the g.b, some contracted it, the others were likely to develop it, and the only sure cure was 100% blood from ebola survivors, how quick do you think there would be some new light ?
read here: what jesus says at matthew 24 .
36 but about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the son,[f] but only the father.
37 as it was in the days of noah, so it will be at the coming of the son of man.
i have not posted here in a while.
i have monitored this site though and the new site arrangement does seem to take a little getting used to.
i think when simon gets all the kinks out it will be good.
