In the 40 some odd years that I attended meetings, I was associated with 4 differant cong. that had annointed partkers. I knew a total of 8 individuals that claimed to be of the annointed. 2 were very old, 1 50ish, the other 5 were women under 40. Including 1 teenager.As each of the emblems were passed, each would take a bite of the bread, and then a sip of the wine, in the order of their passsing.

at the memorial when do the annoited drink of the cup and eat of the bread?
by grewupJWnoselfesteem78-95 inwhen i was jw i never saw an annointed person.... i thought that to be annointed you had to be american....i remember i asked someone at km hall were do the annointed drink the wine and eat the bread ?
they siad it happens in a back room in private.... is this true?
i was only young maybe it was just a throw off answer...... i always felt that holding the wine and bread publicly for a few seconds and then passing it on was a direct public denial of yahushua's instruction.........

JW's, not apostates, are trapped in the snare of trembling at men
by Must obey! inthe society and it's circuit overseers love to harp on about apostates being caught in the "trap of the birdcatcher".
(psalm 91:3) but it is jw's who are hopelessly trapped in another, equally dangerous snare.
proverbs 29: 25 "trembling at men is what lays a snare, but he that is trusting in jehovah will be protected.".

I'm so sorry to hear this, but as we all know "loving kindness" is not a household word with jw's.
The beatings will continue.

A Sense Of Worth
by golf2 inlike sports, work is like a religion to me, i must do something.
the feeling of accomplishing something everyday gives me a sense of worth, this entails doing small things for others.
i never tell people what i'm up to, i surprise them.

Since leaving jw, I find no greater pleasure and sense of self worth by giving unrequittedly of myself to others. I no longer expect anything in return from another soul. We are all capable of making ourselves over from whence we were indoctrinated.

Do you ever feel that you'd like to go to church...
by Trevanian in...but don't know where to start looking for a good church to attend?.
or maybe feel too guilty with leftover jw emotions to even think about going to church at all?.
