  Question: Demons

  by ladybug25 in

  1. watchtower

  growing up, i remember hearing stories from my own parents and others in the congregation about experiences with demons.

  sister x wore a t-shirt that she purchased at a second hand store and the demons attached themselves to the shirt and gave her problems.

  certain movies and/or cds would give a family problems.

  i've been possesed before. it was kind of fun. in the kingdom hall too ... i was laughing and screaming and i couldn't stop myself. the intensity i felt was painful...they had to carry me out because i was disrupting the meeting.

  it all stopped when i put up a fight. it tried to make me do stuff...i resisted...it hurt like hell...but after a while i gained control. half of it was due to my OD-ing on my meds, but half was real...i know it was. it continued even after the meds wore off until i fought it.

  i can tell the whole thing in dirty detail...it scared me at first, but now i'm just glad it's over.

  i really need some help from the experts.

  the situation i'm living in now is that i'm currently saving money to move out.

  my family are jw's, but actually only my mom is baptised.

  thanks everyone for the advice...

  i thought it over pretty hard and i have a plan. i will tell my sister while we have some alone time that the reason i stopped coming was the date thing with 607 bc ... and i found more stuff out, but she has to promise to keep it secret for now because our mom would not trust me and freak out like she always does. she can tell our mom but tell her that she found it out, not me, or she would not listen. i'll tell her to look into it herself if she does not trust...

  she will find out and come to me with more questions. but i have to be careful...very careful.

  i think she will find it exciting to learn.

  the reality is harsh, isn't it? no amount of smooth spiritual phrases can erase what you know now.

  Having Bible studies to make you strong

  how many times in the religion were you offered a bible study to build yourself up again?i have been thinking about it and i think i must hold the current title for this cos apart from the first study which brought me in i have had at least seven others!everytime i got 'weak' i'd be offered yet another study with some sister to help me - and one is trying to get me to have another one but i've had 2 with her b4!

  !personally i think that with all these studies under my belt i don't think another one is going to help me much do you!

  i had 6 studies ...could have been more, but i can't remember it that well. they all tried to get me to get baptised but gave up because i was too willful and dumped me off on someone else.

  you're lucky to know these things. living with the thoughts that you're not good enough for doubting kills you inside. i am working towards my freedom as well.

  reading another thread reminded me of this time long ago before i was ever baptized.

  during a book study the conductor (who was the p.o.

  ) made a comment about being out in the field service and using the bible.

  well it would be nice if they would make up their bloody minds what they are and what they teach :p ! all that fickle reasoning leaves one doubting ipso facto.

  Active JWs: lurkers and posters, is your religion ritualistic?

  by AuldSoul in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  watchtower october 1, 1998, p. 14, par.

  2. the coldhearted attitude of the pharisees constituted a crime against humanity and a sin against god.

  (john 9:39-41) with good reason, jesus warned his disciples, "watch out for the leaven" of this elitist group and other religionists, such as the sadducees.

  it seems like the only rituals they don't tolerate are those of other religions, for it is said: Your Org is a Jealous Org, and to it's whim alone must you render sacred service.
