  "count your many blessings, name them one by one.

  " (words of the song).

  i'm interested in hearing from believers.

  I once told a JW pioneer that when i lay my head down at night, i do not look back on the day and think how much i did for Jehovah. I don't assume that it's all good with Him because He knows i have a good heart. I realize the sins i have committed, the people i still lack love for after many years, the grudges i find hard to let go of, the impatience, the lack of compassion, the things i should have done but didn't..........And with all this and more, i thank God for the amazing gratuitous GIFT of the forgiveness of sins through the finished work of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the joy of being clothed with the robe of Christ's righteousness. :) This is good news indeed, is it not?

  Sola Gratia!

  so we already have this thread which has separate actions for next month: http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/179142/2/make-august-2009-the-dawn-of-the-mass-exodus-the-beginning-of-the-end-of-the-watchtower-org.

  i don't intend to discourage anyone from participating in that.

  those actions are meant to educate current jws (help people leave).

  I attended for 2 days. Brought all kinds of material with me - web sites, blood info, etc. Put stuff in Bathrooms, kingdom melody books, bibles, cars, etc!! There were NO attendants in the bathrooms until the end of Saturday. By then, they had 2 in each one, and they were periodically combing every inch of the stalls, etc. I guess they realized they should be "keeping on the watch" in there.

  Thank the JW woman who came to my house, who smilingly and unhesitatingly told me she would let her sons die if they needed blood. (i knew her sons well, which she did not know) She REALLY got me riled up!

  Healthy Boundaries

  by rebel8 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  healthy boundaries.

  you can say no or yes, and you are ok when others say no to you.. you have a strong sense of identity.

  you respect yourself.. you expect reciprocity in a relationshipyou share responsibility and power.. you know when the problem is yours and when it belongs to someone else.. you share personal information gradually in a mutually sharing/trusting relationship.. you dont tolerate abuse or disrespect.. you know your own wants, needs and feelings.

  Hi rebel8 -- WOW, thanks! That is an awesome compilation of the "boundaries" concept! I"ve got teenage and grown daughters I will pass this on to, and some friends. I know there are a few good books on the topic, but this list is VERY useful. Great stuff for anyone, exJW or not. thanks.

  Total Strangers...would you believe and do whatever they tell you?

  by oompa in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  that is what i did the first 45 years of my life.

  because i was born in...fourth generation...i really did not have much of a choice since i tried to be a good son....my doubts started at 19, but i had been bad enough in high school that i became a pioneer for a year and a half as a form of penance to my parents....soon thereafter, wife and kids and job became a big distraction....and life just happened as it does to must born in dubs........ now that i am out i realize that all of what i was and did and spewed at doors....was actually accepted by me from total strangers!!

  !.......that i had never even met!!!
