Dfed and Damned for Life

by Hangin_on in

i have posted my story on here before.

i was dfed at 22 for sleeping with an 18yr old girl in my cong.

i was married and me and my "mistress" were both dfed.. i admit i was wrong by even the worlds standards.

You obviously sound like you and you're wife want to be reinstated, I think that is commendable if that is what you want.

My sister went through a similar problem, her husband went of with another sister and they were both disfellowshiped, after nearly two years they were both reinstated.

What they mean by the adulterous relationship has me concerned, once adultry has been commited and you don't sleep with youre' wife again after it, that means she has not taken you back so you are free to divorce and remarry. If you and youre x wife slept together after the adultry her being fully aware of the adultry and she willfully slept with you, she then forgives and takes you back as her husband, scriptually if you married the other women you are in an adulterous marraige.

You may have to talk to youre x wife and find out what she has said to the elders, even though she herself committed adultry or fornication that in itself would end the marraige, but the elders may not know about what she did, only what you did, and her story may be different.

It amazes me how damn ignorant witnesses can be, imagine if King David walked in and wanted reinstatment after all he did, I'm sure he would be treated differnently.

I would persist with it, and hand deliver a letter to each elder in the congregation.

Good luck.

DF and heartbroken

by cassyrene in

let me begin by saying that i never expected to even talk about my situation let alone discuss it on the internet but i guess im just feeling so sad that i must hope that someone will understand and give me encouragement...so here it goes.. .

but the more active i got, the more abusive my stepmother became.

ironically, he sent my stepmother to the wedding.

Hiya Cassy, what a couragous beautiful human being you are. I feel sorry for you're father, he has missed out on truly knowing a wonderful daughter, you have every reason to hold youre head up high and be proud of what you have accomplished in such tragic circumstances.

I hope youre life will be happy and you have a beautiful child I am sure you will make a loving mother.

Cheers

Is the "marking" policy of the Society defunct or still officially used?

by yaddayadda in

in my over 30 years as a jw, i honestly can't recall ever hearing about anyone who was being officially "marked" pursuant to the society's "marking" policy based on 2 thess 3:14. .

in fact, i havn't read anything about their strange "marking" policy in years.

this makes me wonder if the society still has confidence in it and still officially endorses it?

fresia

I think it is a personal thing. For one thing there is a certain so called christian women I have personally marked to steer clear of, that being because she is a busy body, gossip and trouble maker. I have nothing to do with her, so scriptually I can mark her as not good association. I find it amazing that you can have a really good worldy friend and told not to associate because they are not JW, I tell you this friend I would trust over some in the congregation any day.

by Terry in

The true dimension of the WTS

by greendawn in

for those that still have doubts about the true nature of the wts organisation, its leaders and r&f and who think that this organisation has a supreme status through being hand picked by god as his sole organisation on earth: .

far from the gb being a group of god appointed saintly elite over an angelic jw society they are group of despicable ever scheming devious men directing a vast and nasty network of jw communities of venomous sneaky vermin which with their poisonous fangs will suck the life out of anyone that gets caught in their cultic spider web of deception and just as with some poisonous spiders you may not realise that you got bitten until well after the fact.

jw sainthood, what a joke, it is as real as easter bunny.

What is concept of worship? Why would God want it so bad? I don't get it.

by oompa in

that pretty much says it all, but i just dont get why god so craves worship.

what is he really getting out of it???

but he wants it so much that if he can't get it, he will whack you out forever.. never felt like worshiping god but say thanks for great sunsets.....oompa.

fresia

Fresia: all he requires is to respect and obey those laws of love and unity for the benifit of all including himself.
Can't we show love and unity toward fellow humans even without a belief in God? Arguments over the nature and teachings of "God" actually divide people against each other and throw gasoline on the burning fire of warfare and international hatred.

no creator, no creator, no creator.

no laws no laws no laws.

do as you would, and yes they do as they do and look what has happened.

do as you want and they do and look what has happened.

Even if you went with the jws on the needing to prove mankind can't rule themselves without God (which I don't), enough is enough. How much suffering is necessary?

So TRUE
