  Good to be back

  by iknewit in

  2. friends

  i've been off the board a while, a little longer than i wanted, but only recently could i sign back in.

  my old screen name was zack.. i have enjoyed reading all the posts and all the info that keeps me up to date on the goings on of the wts.. officially i am still in, although my life has changed radically.

  this memorial will be three years that i have not been to a meeting, and i resigned as an elder six months prior to that.. long and short, the wts has cost me my marriage.

  1975 Was Brought Up At the Meeting

  by dismayed in

  2. friends

  so i'm daydreaming through the service meeting last night, (the end of the "supermeeting") and the ms is giving a part on always being ready to defend our faith.

  blah blah blah.....you know the drill.

  so he invites up a brother to do the demo part.

  Knocking on doors.....How successful is it?

  by Quirky1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i found this to be pretty unsuccessful during my time since i was a jw.

  i actually had my interest sparked with the jw's by family members and freinds that were jw's.. were you a statistic of the knock at the door?.

  2. friends

  usually we marry someone we know and love as a person.

  my marriage 20 years broke up after i began to question my faith in the wt my wife was so fearfull.

  so was i: i did not want to believe that i had been deceived but i could not deny what i learnt and continue to live a lie in the so called truth.

  I told the WT study last night that the Fresno woman on TV is a JW

  one of my last threads i talked about how this brother calls me and we talk and he listens and we remain friends even though i tell the truth about the organization.

  because i always say, "no matter what, i support the organization and the gb.".

  some of you may think that's lying, which it is.

  Cruelty

  2. friends

  im moving out of the house we have had for 10 years, and after 22 years of marriage.

  my two youngest are moving with me...to get away from their own father who really doesnt get what it means to be a dad or husband.

  and we are moving out of a 4000 square foot home that is torn apart from construction that seems to have no end (which isnt even worth what we owe on it any more and we couldnt afford to finish) .

  If You believe that Jesus is God....

  by lurk3r in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know that everyone here is an individual with their own thoughts and beliefs,and i'm not starting this thread to debate whether or not jesus is god or not...but i am kinda curious about this.

  thank you in advance for taking the time to consider this with/for me.. jesus christ instructed people on how to pray.

  with the opening line of the lord's prayer he said (something to this effect) "our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name" (hope i got that right).

  i have been a lurker now for almost a year, and now that newbies can get on board, here i am.. here's my story.

  baptized at 15 and made ministerial servant by 19. my father, mother, siblings and entire side of my mother's family are jehovah's witnesses.
