so just finished telling your concerns about the pedophiles cover up, failed prophecies, revisionists history and lack of financial transparency.
so elders ask you the questions.
" so does this mean you don't want to to be a jw anymore?
Another one could be :
Brother so &so ,could you please help me to answer a return visit I have that asked me to show thim in the NT/christian greek Scriptures one that says we should witness for Jehovah ? Just one ?
I`m having trouble finding one with the publications ,Bible that I have.
after i left the jws, i began to live a normal and mentally healthy life (i'm still working on living a physically healthy one) .
anyway, in 2011, i met the woman of my life and we have been together ever since.
and now we have a beautiful son who will turn 1 in january.
What a lovely post , Merry Xmas from another non christian wishing your family all the best for the future.
"well, there you go, you come to love a drawing then you find out it's true".
so says this jw post on facebook:.
.
He only became a JW to get into bed with the girl ,a year down the track he will leave the "truth" not a good illustration .
during the watchtower study today, i browsed genesis and looked for evidence of noah ever preaching to anyone.
from what i could glean from the scriptures, it was a foregone conclusion that noah's family would be it on the ark.
(unless they towed some rafts behind) my wife says that building the ark could be considered a witness of his faith to the wicked world, but that seems kind of lame to me.. so, should i just assume that god decided not to give anyone else a chance for redemption?
Correct me if I am wrong but their is no scripture that suggests Noah or any of his family ever went to the homes of anyone preaching any message of hope for them if they followed his course
The "witness" noah gave was not a preaching work he did only his building an Ark to save only his family and animals.

Am I the only one who can see the same face in three of those blue bubbles ? Am I unique ?
it was the year 2011. remember that one?
surprise, surprise -- it wasn't one of their predictions.
it was from one of their competitors, harold camping.. "religious leaders sometimes predict tragic worldwide events to warn mankind and gather followers.
I`ll bite RubaDub how did they get the 1922 horn-blowing in Cedar Point Ohio right ?
My memory of that is when we went through the" Revelation" book as being fullfilled starting with those conventions from 1922 to to 1929 ,that had to be my start of of my questioning the religion ,I just could not swallow that interpretation.
So let us in on the joke RaD
i have been accused recently of "trying to direct my own step" because of my questioning the org and refusing to come back to the "truth" for the past 6 years.
i personally still believe in god, i just doubt that he is behind the jw org, that's all.
why is that so hard for jw's to understand?
Well historically it doesnt appear that it belongs to Jesus Christ to direct his steps either since his enthronement in 1914.judging by his achievements or should I say lack of them since then.
just that, he's died aged 53. confirmed on bbc.
rip.
bloody hell, i'm devastated..
It did come as a bit of a shock ,RIP GM
#8 "jehovah's witnesses" is our scriptural name!
jehovah's witnesses are taught (and believe) by their hierarchy in brooklyn that the name of their religion is based on the bible itself.
a little bit of research comprehensively reveals that the statement which was written in isaiah 43:10 about the jewish nation 700 years before christians appeared, has been corruptly and un-scripturally adopted as a "god-given" name.
After that statement was made in Isaiah 43:10-12 nobody least of all the nation of Israel ever took up the name Jehovah`s Witnesses And centuries later when Jesus walked the earth he never chastised them for not doing so
who celebrated even in their heart?
what were your grievances?.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/festivus.
My son and DIL are spending a few days with us ,he cooked the turkey /roast and pavlova for desert and my other son from interstate skyped us on the day which was very enjoyable for all concerned as we chewed the fat.
Grievances ? I have missed out on a lifetime of festivuses .
