  My wife is never going to wake up.

  what do you do when you believe in your heart that your spouse is never going to wake up to the tatt?

  when you're sick of the cherade of pretending you can deal with the spiritual division when you dont think you can anymore.

  when you're convinced that your spouse is so decieved she is lost in a desert and is fine with living by the mirage.

  sometimes its worth asking yourself if your marriage is still viable--even if the cult werent in the mix. i left it only a few years after i was married the first time. my wife was a born in--and still is. we are now in our mid 60's. she divorced me quick as a flash when i had an affaire--with a married sister--after 13 years together. there was no reasoning with her. it cost me my home and business---and--after a few years--my kids too. ( but i am now good friends with my d/f son )

  that was over 30 years ago. now--?---ive been married again--twice--since then. made mistakes on the way--who hasnt.? my dub-wife did marry again--sadly her 2nd husband has now died and shes on her own ( as far as i know ). i sometimes wonder if she regrets her actions--after all---how many born-ins---now--in their retirement years----can seriously believe all that crap they were force fed ?

  Main reason JWs are JWs

  by Batman89 in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  what is the(or what was your) main motivation for serving god as a jw(or any christian)?.

  a) love for god and genuinely trying to learn more about him and bible truths?.

  b) to escape punishment/death at armegddon?.

  JW Literature... Lots of it... what to burn and what to keep?

  by ILoveTTATT in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have lots and lots of watchtower literature... and i don't know what could be useful in the future to have as a reference or as a keeper.

  i am definitely keeping the 1993 and 1994 bound volumes of the awake!

  (no, we are not false prophets... down in the same page, the generation of 1914 will not pass... also the youths who put god the watchtower first).

  once you recognize that the contributions you gave for the upkeep of your place of worship have been given to the corporation and will only be used to upkeep your place of worship at their discretion...the caption will become your mantra!.

  i took over my elderly fathers affairs 17 months ago. i discovered he had previously donated a lump sum of £5000 UK sterling--towards a hall purchase fund. that hall was susequently sold off.

  he also donated £100 a month out of his pensions.

  not any more LOL.

  as an aside--he has been in a care home since then.. no elders have been near him in months--just a 90 year old sister who lives nearby. whilst he is physically worn out--his mind is still active. he hasnt attended the last 2 memorials---nor any meetings. there is no watchtower literature in his room--only a bible tucked away somewhere. i wonder if he has finally found TTATT

  for a while--i was on a few FB sites used by many african jw's---they use the word JAH all the time. i made the point that it wasnt endorsed by the wts--to no avail---like talking to the living dead.

  why not use the word JOVE---or--better still--JUPITER---all mean the same--all wrong.

  a pleasure to read such a well written life story---very moving.

  if it helps just one jw reading this--then its a REAL witness to the truth.
