The Truth is Within You
by cassuk11 inhumankind has for centuries sought truth outside of themselves.
the soupmix of teaching ,ideas,philosophies and religious dogma had failed to see that the truth is within and if we seek ,knock and ask we find it within us.
the truth is that we are all light and pure love and that is buried deep within alll the layers upon layers which are being stripped away to reveal the true inner self .

raised in it from childhood--dipped age 14 to keep my dad company and because 6 other dub-brats in the cong were too. mentally on the way out by 21. resigned age 23 over blood issuie--1st child on the way. attended occasional meetings to keep born in wife sweet--but--no door knocking or talks etc. regarded as an un-opposed husband by dub friends. never shunned.
had an affaire with a married sis at 33--wife divorced me as fast as she could. i was labelled apostate--and that was the end of any involvement for me.
my 3 kids started to shun me a few years later--2 still do--1 is d'f and now is close to me. i only got into this xjw thing 4 years ago--when i heard my son had been d/f----ive had a good 33 years of being atheist apostate lol.

Resinstatement - Holy Spirit Direction is BULL
by rrb2016 inso i am, i guess technically an apostate.
never baptized, family all in and treat me fine since leaving home/wt over 30 years whenever i see them.
discovered the ttat by reading kingdom of the cults and catching an episode of the john ankerberg show when i was 18.. in the past 4 years i have "helped" two people ( a father and son) get reinstated.

i think all religions worship the same dog--er--god. just each from a slightly different direction. then all god has to do--is turn his head slightly to direct his stern gaze at whichever one is in the limelight.
fortunately--i'm a born atheist---so all the god twaddle is just a silly nonsense to me.

True Stories from the Tower - Part 1 "From Anointed to Pedophile to Bethelite"
by BluePill2 inbefore i dive into the actual write-up of this experience, let me put some things straight.. i have thought long and hard if i should write more about my experiences during the 10+ years at different branches.
during these years i worked from financial department, service department, home office and different it assignments.
as you can imagine one sees and hears and reads a lot of stuff going through different stations in different countries.

What are the consequences if a JW files for an unscriptural divorce?
by Daniel1555 inin january my wife separated from me, because she views me as an apostate (to make the story short).. at that time the elders explained to us, that the bible doesn't approve of such a separation.
i heard from my mother in law, that my wife finally wants to divorce.
(when i think of how my wife treated me the last year i actually want a divorce too).. now my question to you:.

sorry to read about your break-up Daniel---ive gone through 2 divorces ( careless--i know )----and i know how stressful it can be.
but--if i were in your shoes---if you think the marriage is over--and you no longer live under the weight of WT thought control------why not give her grounds for a scriptural divorce--if thats what she wants
enjoy yourself--get a girlfriend----boff her brains out. tell your wife.

Is WT guided by holy Spirit? Trolley witnessing. What's your experience?
by KateWild ini was out trolley witnessing today.
i specifically wanted to ask jws about holy spirit, and how it guides them.. i had someone with me as usual, so jws had to be polite and answer my questions.
as we approached the trolley, an elder from my kh was there, just recently moved in.

will do Kate.
i'm not at all interested in getting into a discussion with a dub-----but i just want to see how they react at the word JWN. if they appear to know what it is--then--maybe they are readers.
they might say--go ahead and post the photo---or--refuse to allow it. be curious to know why.
