PS My hubby, who is pushing me to become a JW says he will read stuff I find out about the governing body. Well I told him I could prove that the TW and other JW publications had been prophecing the specfic date for the end of the word. Now he wants me to show him the publication, he won't believe anything I print off the internet. I think that will be pretty easy to prove.
Saying glad you all are here.
Inlove with a JW
hello, i'm new here...but i've been reading the forum for some time, but this is the first time i've posted.
i am stuck.
i am a non witness and have been seriously dating a witness for about a year now.
I am too am "inlove" with a JW, he was DA because we had prematial sex, but now he wants to go back. I did not know much about JW's and thought it would pretty much like any other religion, but with different beliefs and some non association with the world. So I encouraged him to go back, even supported him. Boy was I wrong. I started studying and looking things up on the internet and WOW were my eyes opened. I wish I had checked out the beliefs and org. long before we were married. He got DA becasue of me, and I think I could have shown him many things about JW's at that time. But now that we are married, he is free to seek reinstatment and does not feel like he needs to listen to me, because I have already married him. We are still trying to work things out. I know I can never ever be a JW on any level, but I fear for the well being of my husband. They are so hard on the men and we will not have our own marriage. It will be the Me, My Husband and The WatchTower.
My husband is the most amazing man, but when it comes to this he is brain washed. I don't want him hurt anymore by their lies.
Try freeminds.com for lots of info on the false teaching and wrong doing in governing body.
I found this article called "I'm in Love With a Jehovah's Witness!" by Timothy Campbell. It helped me.

Thanks for the words of encouragement. Really,
BUT I HAVE TO KNOW WHAT DOES duh mean?

I am sick, sad, angry and in despair! I thought I had married and reasonable man, now only to find him to say this

Please tell me there is any hope! Is there anyone out there who has ever said these words before and meant them, that is now come to see the TRUTH?

What can I add to these comment, I feel like my comments are weak in comparision. All I know is that belief systems are routed deeply and shape a what a person thinks about themself. My husband loves God deeply, unfortunately he has put his faith in a false religion and I think he feels that God has let him down. In is him mind it is better to cling to false beliefs, than to admit he was wrong. Where do you go after being JW. It's like God has foresaken you!
so i've been deciding for the past year or so whether or not i want to stay in this religion, and i have decided that i do not.
i plan on telling my grandparents (whom i live with) this very soon, possibly tomorrow.
of course i can't be just like "i don't want to be a jehovah's witness anymore", but rather "i don't believe in this anymore, and here are the reasons why".
Sorry, but I don't know how to use this site very well yet. But can anyone help with this, it was last Monday, I had just found this site and started reading many of the msg. I read one from parent who's son was planning on joins the Org. One reply had a website link that said it wound be good for learning the "Truth about the Truth" I think I was a video. Of course I did not write it down, now I can't find the msg, so can any help
do you have a favorite translation?
king james, niv, or others that i might not of heard of that are perhaps more poetically written.
or a style/version that you particularly like?.
I have been reading many different bibles lately ( oh guess why, been doing a bible study, to learn more about the "truth".) So in trying to understand the NWT I have found that the Young's Literal Translation, most correctly translates Greek. Check it out and see what you think.
"be courageous and strong ... jehovah your god is with you.
be courageous and strong.
" (joshua 1:8, 9) because joshua listened to god, he proved to be courageous, strong, and successful.
I was at the kh and I heard this study and I wanted to scream "there is so much more". I have only been going to meetings, because I love my husband and wanted to see what was so important to him. But the meeting leave me with an empty feeling. I wish I could read this discussion before next Sunday, it would make it so much more interesting. Thanks for being here, I really need support, and so does my husband, but he does not know it yet.
(copied from my blog) .
anyone who's seen my posts on jwd knows that im an active jw whos married in the religion.
i recently started leaning my "family study" with my wife to a more free-thinking, personal researching mode.
Dear Groggy:
I have just started studying JW with DF husband. I have learned more than he knows, from this site and others, I want to help bring him to the true light. Do you think it is a good idea to attend meetings with him? And what are duh(s)?
i am new to the jw world, not one, but do love one.
met a man who down to the tee is amazing.
he is a great man, the only thing i am not so sure about is his "religious" beliefs.
I did marry a DF's JW, and I love him very much he is a great husband, we dated for two year and we have been married for one year. But please know that JW are not just any Christain religion, you should read as much as you can about their religion before you marry. I wish I would have. I am now faced with the most difficult decision of my marriage. I can not turn my back on the true religion for a fake religion and it is truly fake. Just read all the msg. at this site. I think you will soon get the picture about JW religion.
Please write back if you would like to know what I have been going through and share.
Inlove
