for those of you with experience being asked this question.....or those of you that are/were elders........ what would happen if you responded to that question by saying "i don't know"?.
what would happen if you responded with "i choose not to answer that question."?
and then when they ask why, you say "because i wish to invoke my 5th amendment rights".
Hello Beenthere2
They made statements early in the history of the org. As far back as around 1896.....
BUT>>>> The adoption was made on June 15,1938 that said they, THE SOCIETY is the visible representation of the Lord on earth. etc..
Read it on page 219 of the proclaimers book. I'm not good at typing or pasting so maybe somebody else can do it for you if you don't have this publication anymore.
Enjoy

Yes and doing it at home is definitely an act of faith. We do it at home regularly as a family and to go this year to the kingdom hall is not for us , except as an act of obedience, but for THEM because we love them and feel compassion and pity for their blindness.
Have a great night

He (Jah) isn't and NEVER has been behind this man-made organization. It is people who organize and enslave one another in the name of God.
This organization is NO different than in early history. The WTBS acts as a modern-day Egypt who has enslaved Israel once again. (of course they have asked for it) Just as in early history when the Hebrews became prosperous and numerous as a result of blessings, the egyptians became threatened by them and enslaved them down in egypt. Afraid they would take over THEM. Egyptians became ruthless!
Modern-day Russellites and Rutherfordites when there was only ONE hope of heaven and supposed to be a remnant not a majority, when the
peoples IBS became to many in number and growing, they said lets organize into a corporation and control them as slaves and then oops... too
many partaking and growing. What do we do with them? Oooh lets create an earthly hope for the multitude (overflow) and call ourselves the
visible representation of Christ on earth. And tell people that the majority will NOT be partaking anymore. "Shutting up the kingdom" and that
food now comes from them (as faithful discreet slave) and they will work them to death and treat them ruthless and unloving as wolves in sheeps coverings. They will take their children and control their daily activities and no matter how many meetings they go to and hours they spend in service reading, personal study, assemblies....they will tell them it is not enough ...really...
So....stomp in the mud and make those bricks harder and faster!
Sorry just venting
justamom
Absolutely. My husband and I and two sons are going.
Yes, every year until Jah says no more. NO NO not to worship and celebrate WITH them as they pass over Christ by passing over the emblems.
It is to SHOW THEM how they are an anti-christ by not entering and or allowing others into a covenant that is open to ALL and receive life as a result.
And... we go.....Out of obedience to our Lords voice and spirit which says, Romans 10:14-15 "How will they call on him in whom they have not put faith? How in turn, will they put faith in him of whom they have not heard? How, in turn, will they preach unless thay have been sent forth? How comely are the feet of those who, declare good news of goiod things!"
The tables are turned on them! And yes we are disfellowshipped so it may be the most effective and productive way WE may be able to give a witness.
Looking forward to it. Our loved ones (peoples) are still enslaved inside!

here's a letter that has circulated among many ex-watchtowerites!.
just thought you'd want to know!.
awake!
Soooo.......
What they should have said is "since Jehovah's organization is everchanging and keeping up with the times.....there is "NEW LIGHT"
The internet is no longer demonized! You can sit at home in your pjs drinking coffee and count your time witnessing to people that you will
never see their faces. Something i'm sure they are accusing us of.
And of course they have to condense the magazines in half and save on printing. Two reasons. All the money$$ they have been spending on
settling cases outta court. And there is no new food from the slave-class. Just the same old rehashed kool-aid! They have to make sure their
pocketbooks are not too affected somehow.
Less reading material, less meetings, less songs to sing, less hourly requirements to pioneer, WOW thay are becoming so loving to their flock.? NOT~~~~
thought i'd put my two cents in......

awake!
well ......here we are agian.
april 5th 2012 memorial season.. now, for many many of us here that know and understand what the wtbs really is and...what it isn't, the truth, you may wonder why would anybody want to put themselves out there and actually go the kingdom hall this year ?.
for me and my family who have been disfellowshipped for fourteen years for disagreeing and standing up for the real truth (they called it apaostacy) and my husband partook of the emblems for many years inside as a witness.
Hello and wellll.....
I disagree with the whole waste of time in planting a seed. Who are we to know whether my sister, mother or father, or neice, nephew or uncle will not wake up one day and smell the coffee. This is our blood through family and the israel inside that are!
And please all of you do not mistake what I said. We as a family partake at home regularly with each other and other ones that choose with us.
It is not a sharing in worship with the WTBS when we go, and I don't care one bit what they are part of. They are as big as the world and being part of it as is any other so-called organized religion on earth!
If for NO other reason we go....It is to give a witness and or a warning out of obedience to OUR Lord and master. What they do with it like I said is entirely up to them. But they will never be able to say, " Why were we not told or warned out of Love for fellowman?" like they say THEY do to people out in field service.

the question is directed at those members who still attend the meetings--to whatever extent--to make life easier.
those who perhaps still associate to keep the peace in their family.etc.-----but dont believe it any more.. what do you call yourself--a jehovah's wtness?
what religion (if any) do you write in that box if a form asks you?.
Sorry.......
But does it really matter what one calls themselves when they know the WTBS is not "The Truth" and they continue to go for whatever reasons/excuses???
There is only one true reason. FEAR (of man) and Lack of faith. Sorry but its the honest truth.
justmom (who " spent" my whole life inside with family still there) But not NO MORE...... lol
Yes Yes Yes
A cult it is..... hard core slavery is another word for it! and a vicious wild beast it is.... So good you see it that way. Hopefully we all can with the proper motive and intent keep any and all for going in or reintering for whatever reasons...
We're here for ya!
