  I had a super-natural experience

  i know some might not believe but i had this experience about 5 years ago.

  i was laying in the bed..and wide-awake..all of a sudden i literally saw a white-hand...that seem like a spirit..and it lifted me up in the air....and i actually felt my body coming back down to the bed..i was not dreaming at all..because i was aware of the things around the room..i wasnt scared but in awe of what happen.

  the hand was so real looking and i was staring at it..there was no face..it happen so fast..but i remember everything from the evil laugh afterwards too..that one blew me away.

  i didn't want to hijack the wanderer's new thread about weather the w.t.s.

  should be held accountable for shunning, but, in reading it, a thought flashed across my little brain.

  he pointed out that apostates that picket conventions are usually the worst kind of "apostates" they usually seem angry and uneducated.

  I think apostates shouldn't picket - that's old JW tactics. We need to infiltrate, disquise ourselves and plan some most devious plans. Maybe we should all watch "The Master of Disguise" and get some tips.

  i have been on here for only the past 3 days or so....so i don't really know how it goes.. this is an 'apostate' site right?.

  so today i've learned that there is just the ol' regular apostate and an 'active' apostate.. but are there actually active witnesses on this site as well??.

  because i just saw a topic about someone asking for advice on how to do a talk?.

  welcome! I was DF'd for a few years, was not keen on going back because of some things I personally knew what happened in the cong but STILL felt bad about speaking to a supposedly ex-elder "apostate". A couple of things stuck in my mind so I decided to look for myself. Found my way here and now I wish I did 20 years ago...

  I can't believe the feeling the word "apostate" used to have in me and now I want to BE one now I have knowledge...

  yesterday, thursday, july 26, 2007, a conversation with a street witnessor (isn't that what you would call someone involved in street witnessing?

  ) got joined by a walk-up elder turned into a great opportunity to witness to several bystanders (who even joined in the conversation).. i began by declining to accept the offer from the elderly woman who held up a "what does god require of us?

  i said, "but, verne, you aren't going to the bible.

  2. experiences

  so......it has been 3 months since my mother passed away and not one, not one witness has called, stopped by, or even sent a card to me!

  it hit me today.

  i mean, i must have gotten like 50 sympathy cards in the mail from her worldly relatives and co-workers, as well as numerous phone calls, but not one witness has done anything!

  All Ex-Elders, Mr.Flipper going to Final MeetingW/Elders! I'll be careful!

  hello ex-elders, onthe wayout, snakes, and wilyloman, just to refresh about a month ago i told you all that the appeal committee had overturned the disfellowshipping decision by the original jc as the appeal committee got a hold of me by phone and told me the society gave them direction in this.

  i have since explained the situation to my witness mom and dad, 80 &82, they are good with it.

  i am taking copies of the counsel you ex elders gave to me to be careful about what i say at this "alleged encouragement" meeting and promise you this, i'll watch my words carefully when they ask me questions.
