I read a few books, from Don Camron and hit freeminds, watchtower comments and all the rest basicly. At this point many things I can say i dont believe. Still in to avoid shunning. But if the org is directed first by Jah, then Jesus, then an anointed slave directed by the spirit. it is clear there making mistakes that should not be happening especialy being in print

A question for all Jehovah's Witnesses on here who truly believe
by Quillsky infirstly, i know that there are some really bright witnesses.
achievers, thinkers - it was partly my admiration for people like you that kept me in for so long.. "brother peter is such an intelligent man, he couldn't be wrong", was the way i thought.
i'm sure others felt the same way.

A Treatise on 1914, by sd-7
by sd-7 in"1914 repaired".
no year has more profoundly been pointed to for jehovahs witnesses than 1914. it is such a pivotal part of their theological superstructure that the following quote can be found in the book benefitting from theocratic ministry school education on page 279:.
this good news of the kingdom.

Me I'm a lover not a fighter, I do enjoy to slow dance. I think im romantic and dont think my wife is. So i recently found a woman who I could slow dace with. She enjoys all the 80's best music as I do. we put on my ipod with 2 headphones connected have a nice drink on the side and slowdance and sing and carrese each other. she allows me to carrese her face massage here head gently kiss her. All while enjoying some of the 80's best slow jams. I wish it last longer.

I agree with all of your comments, Jah does not seem like a god of Justice according to wt definition and my own logical conclusion. Sorry I did not study the religion or read other books sooner in life. Now Im awake!

Firm beliver. any how I started thinkin--- we see everyday in the news not including globaly the incredible Injustices even whem courts are invoved most times justice comes in the form of money for everone else and no real justice for the victim. it justice does prevail it takes ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff Yearsssssssssss. Now were told were made in gods image. As far as I'm concerned justice should always be brought about swiftly. thats why as an elder judicial matters were to be handled swiftly and for the sake of all especily protects congragation.
Me being made in gods image I after so many years finaly say where is gods justice If He's real? Some of the reasons and excelent illistrations the slave has come out with about why god permits suffrig made sence. but Im sorry times UUUUUUPPPPP.

This is my biggest dilema. Although mentally I really feel I could walk away from the org right now, I still have genuine love for the people I have come to know over the years. I love people!
Crisis of Conciece: I feel the same as you, I love people, I also would lose some family in the truth, wife thinks I'm crazy. And I do fear beaing alone because Im a people person.
And yes I do realize that if they find out I have become "weak", most will, if not all, abandon our conditional friendship. So I have been keeping up a great act. But this feels like the only thing holding me in the org.

Titis can u provid were this was said, and the original statement not that (this is what we said!)
9 As early as 1884, the Watch Tower identified the other sheep as being people who would be given opportunity to live on this earth under conditions that would fulfill God’s original purpose

DB: That awkward feeling that all eyes are upon you and the comments about how much your parts are missed will go away soon enough... I say AMEN to that! It has been a couple of months, I know and I hope they'll forget about me.
I am going through the same thing right now
