When I look closely at the WTS, I do not see any fruits at all. Only the tedious works and hardships that some of my family must endure without the benefit of fruits. Works that are, in my opinion, not blessed by the Lord, that's why there's no fruit.....

What makes you think Jehovah created this?
Couldn't it have been from people making bad health decisions?
And Jehovah allows people to make poor decisions, doesn't he?

Sister Not Sure If She Is 144 000 or Great Crowd
by Awake at last ini haven’t posted here for years as i have now moved on and am satisfied with the choice i have made to leave watchtower.
however in light of the coronavirus and people in australia and other countries being asked to stay at home i became concerned for a witness sister who lives in melbourne alone who is 88 years old.
today i gave her a call as i don’t trust the local witnesses to care for her.

It's great that you have even reached out to this lonely elderly woman. Just giving her your time is showing great love. If you trust in God [and his mercy, forgiveness, etc]. then it is totally ok and appropriate to share that hope with her. If not, share what you have and that's good too.

need input: Asked my wife to show me in the bible where Christ became King in 1914
by goingthruthemotions inso my wife is so diluted and brainwashed.
during this time she is having so much anxiety, mainly because me and my son's want nothing to do with the religion.. so the discussion was, i told her will never go back because they go way beyond what the bible teaches all the time.
i brought up overlapping generation, 607 and then i told her...show me where in the bible that jesus returned invisbly in 1914 and started ruling?

Maybe you could ask what gives the WTS the authority to interpret the bible?
With some 40k different forms of Christianity, how does one know who has the true knowledge [aside from them saying that they have the authority]?
The WTS says so, and that's it? No other evidence aside from their [ever changing] words

I think the Watchtower has a very searchable history tracing a time line of erroneous false predictions of end of world that begin with it's creation in the mid/late 19th century.
I think that the Watchtower changes it's theology based on who is in charge of it's unique form of faith, growth and influence.
What do you think Dydeonwl?

I would say that no protesting church or organization has the authority to interpret the NT.
It is a catholic book written and compiled and preserved by the catholic church.
The catholic church told the world that it is the word of God. I think that the WTS would have to prove that the catholic church really did lose their authority with their book AND prove that they really did restore what , if anything was lost/corrupted by the catholic church, I have never seen any of this proof.

When you were fully in, did you believe that you would not die?
by TTWSYF ini know that it must seem silly to ask, but my brother and his family think that the big a will arrive before they die.
i tried to explain to my brother that everyone else who has ever lived in the past has died and only jesus has [physically] rose from the dead.. it is amazing that anyone could buy that line.
what crazy cult culture that could make people believe such nonsense?!.

Are JWs still taught/told that they will never die? That death will not touch God's sole channel of communication to the world?
