The JW religion has just cost me my marriage & my family life

by jambon1 in

friends

after leaving the organisation 10 years ago i fought with everything i had to stay in my marriage and with my three children.

after a tumultuous number of years trying to maintain a happy family life while living in a divided home, it's finally over.

the religion is single handedly responsible for destroying my marriage and my family.

Hi Jambon,

I am sorry to hear that this has happened and can only imagine the place you are in just now. I very much would agree with daniel1555 to keep close contact with your children as I am sure you do...also meet half way with your wife....always remember, it isn't her fault. Time is also a healer. Just to let know you and your family are in our thoughts.

I a half way through the book and shocked by all the factual evidence and proof that suggests that the earth appears to be flat. Any thoughts?

as long as shunning continues donations will be slow

by poopie in

one of the reasons the watchtower is having problems with donations is because they have refuse to let go of wholesale across the board shunning.

the average publisher is sick of it and jehovah is withholding his full blessing.

when you do not show love to fellow humans you run the risk of not being able to show love which i'm turn has a direct relationship to your joy in turn if your not happy your not motivated to donate lots of money to and arrangement you perceive as unloving all you bethel lurkers convey this message to bro letters and rest of gb stop trying to convince fair minded people to support unloving shunning.

It amazes me that individuals are not informed of this extreme practice when they are persuaded to study Gods word with Jehovah's witnesses. I only found out about this practice/policy many years after I joined. Thank God this is not a policy the catholic church follow. my life would have been hell for the past 24 years since becoming a Jehovah's witness. Watchtower .......YOU HAVE TO REFORM NOW!!!!

So I meet sister ott zealot. She says ah .... Its lovely to see you; how are you doing. I said yeah I'm fine thank you! She then asks 'and how's your spirituality'? I thought to myself eh? Why would anyone in their right mind ask such a question when only aquaintences. Weird is all I can say!!!!! TE

For God/Truth Seekers Only!

by Nicola.threeangelsmessage in

jw

for the past three years, my husband and i have been watching these sermons by remarkable worldwide speakers.

the biblical truths we have learnt from their presentations, in such a short period of time most definitely tip the scales compared to the truth the jw.org led me to believe i had for over 20 plus years of my life.

thanks to these videos, we have now found the truth and the truth is jesus christ (john 14:6).

Truthexplorer

Hi Nicola.threeangelsmessage

I will give the videos a view, as like yourself am open minded and searching for truth. Fair plays to you for sharing what you believe as can see it comes from your heart. May God bless you for your love for him and his son, our Lord Jesus Christ..

Christian love

jw.org cart days numbered?

by jookbeard in

reading a report of an elder in a friends cong has been hiding and spying on the pioneers who seem to have a practise of dumping the cart and finding a local coffee shop, i've noticed that they do this in my local high street as well but this week they seemed to be all huddled around the cart, they've clearly been warned, a vast percentage of the time i see they seem to be more interested in fiddling with their mobile phones and gossiping, is just seems these carts are a means for the pioneers to turn in "easy time" i wonder what sort of figures show how much literature is being taken by the public?

i bet its very minimal.

naturally the gb would say they are a phenomenal success , we clearly know they are not.

Truthexplorer

itkh. I've had several shots of the carts. a couple of weeks ago, I had to squeeze a cart over my wife and daughters knees in the back of my car as my mother in law was in the front. the other cart was in the boot. My wife's face was a picture. I dropped them off to do the carts whilst heading off on some RV's. then had to do it all over again when returning the carts :-). it cheered me up seeing my wife's face in the mirror. 'Carts again next week dear'?

Escape from Paradise: a new book by Brock Talon

by Brock Talon in

after a one year gestation period, as well as an extended labor, i am finally happy to announce the birth of my latest book: escape from paradise.. cigars all around!

like any new parent, i need to get some much needed sleep now.

zzzzzzzz.

Truthexplorer

Hi Brock, yes absolutely. I am about quarter of the way through escape from paradise just past the bit about where you had heat stroke after one of those marathon conventions. As I read about your childhood, I think about my young daughter. I think balance is the key in my situation as my wife is full on in. Your last book brought things to life for me. In fact, I brought up a couple of videos on you tube on bethel, to picture what your book mentioned. Lo and behold, a video pops up by someone from China filming this very tall young man ' pressing shirts'. He looked so out of place. He looked the kind of guy you would see walking out of a building in wall street! yet here he was pressing shirts most likely all day every day. It just backed up what you mentioned in your book how much of the work at bethel is simply soul destroying. Anyway I'm off to read the rest of your latest book :-). TE

Hi Brock, I just finished reading your first book journey to Gods house. You described everything as I had imagined bethel to be. It really didn't surprise meat all for some strange reason. Your experience was very interesting and enjoyed your candid views on how you felt about things when there. I enjoyed your book immensely and have downloaded your other book just now. I am looking forward to reading it over the coming week. All the best TE

Doh! wife is about to hear the trololol song

by freemindfade in

doh!

here i sit on my laptop on this site, while the wife is watching dubtv over there, she is watching the feb one with trololololy song at the end... i am trying to hold back my laughter because i know it is coming soon!

how will she react???

Truthexplorer

I purposely encouraged my 'totally in' wife (and daughter) to have a look at the trolley song. I mentioned that a brother said it was 'different'. We then skipped to the end of the broadcast to see my wife's reaction. I asked what she thought. She said 'it sounds like a Disney song!' I said yeah....I was expecting willy wonka to pop up on the screen :-)
