Disfellowship

by justice34 in

jw

i'm dealing right now with veru extreme situations that most of us have been in this sect.. i've talk to the elders because i was smoking cigarettes and i stopped for a couple of weeks.

the reason i did that because mamy things are going on right now in my life.

i'm out, i don't attend meetings i don't want to do anything with them anymore but i live in a small community so i want to go out without giving attention to anybody.. the reason i told them what i'm doing because my wife is still one of them and other people learn of some other things i have been doing and i had to tell something for obvious reasons.. the elsers tho the haven't answer to me back in 2 weeks almost and today one of them called me to give me some information.

j34 -I've talk to the elders because i was smoking cigarettes

There's your problem, you confessed to a bunch of self proclaimed cult slave herders.

I did that because many things are going on right now in my life. I'm out, I don't attend meetings I don't want to do anything with them anymore

It looks like you're more mentally in the cult than you think because I can't think of anything that would urge a confession to these low IQ goons. Perhaps if I knew your situation it's make more sense. On the surface of it I just don't get it.

Don't tell these thickos anything. They probably can't find out anyway.

This has confused me, I must say.

They have the whip hand now, don't give them any more ammo.

2/2022 WT: a repeated request & more doubletalk

by neat blue dog in

we all know the now famous quote, "all of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not.

" well, this point is regurgitated in the latest wt, along with yet another new bunker scene:.

"during the great tribulation, we may receive instructions that seem strange, impractical, or illogical .

Carla- I wish I wouldn't have read jw talk link from FFGhost. Can't unsee it.

Same here. What a snivelling bunch of sycophants.

Was I like that? Actually, the answer is no. I always felt somehow 'unclean' in these kinds of North Korean like false praisings for fear of a witch hunt.

Cult doesn't even cut it, it seems far worse.

Biahi- Fuck them all.

This is the only response that encapsulates the truth of the matter. Many of them will be power tripping busy bodies.

We don't usually have basements in the UK, I wonder how the Jobos will get on if the pigs come for them? Perhaps they'll have to excavate basements to WTBT$ specifications.

British Police are usually dim wits anyway. They're more interested in arresting for hurt feelings on Twitter than actual crime. I'm sure they're too busy being corrupt than going after Jobos. Many British Police really are a bunch of thickos. They don't understand law but they do understand bullying....unless you tick diversity boxes...then they leave well alone.

What happens if a JW say “Happy Holidays!”?

by Iamallcool in

jw

any takers?.

It will depend on multiple factors.

What the 'personality' of the congregation is.

What the biggest bully in the congregation thinks of it.

I'm a firm believer that a congregation is ruled by the biggest bully or bullies. There is no real love in the congregations. It's all fake, fake, fake! And the bullies can fake off!

....and let's be honest, the answer to anything cheerful in Jobo world is usually, 'NO!'

Whatever the question that doesn't involve giving money to the GB to protect sexual predators is always, 'NO!'

Can I enjoy myself? No. Give money to the GB.

Can I do this that or the other, to make life happier? No! Give money to the GB.

And rips the congregation for being too materialistic.

And then the scrounging benefits cheat will stay at the most opulent house for hospitality.

Why do I feel that it's always 'groundhog day' experiences in the washtowel?

It just seems to be the same old stuff with different names to Andre.

A single Bible verse that explains everything—hope even to the disfellowshipped

by Abraham1 in

"through love and faithfulness sin is atoned for;.

through the fear of the lord evil is avoided.” (proverb 16:6, niv).

sin can be cancelled [yə·ḵup·par] by acts of goodness such as kindness [bə·ḥe·seḏ] and faithfulness, and sin can be avoided in loving remembrance [ū·ḇə·yir·’aṯ] of god.

Aby - I don't see how splurging copy paste actually helps. I say this because in my personal experience as a bloke that left the jobos, it would not help.

What would have helped me? 1-2-1 dialogue not based around someone's own interpretation (or borrowed interpretation), of what the Bible says.

Why? Because the WBT$ had already hoodwinked me into believing someone else's opinions. Perhaps it's the British mind.

People like me are great blokes, mate.

Simon - Great, another bible-vomiter.

Conversations are like pulling teeth with these type of threads. It's a huge spew of copy paste. Waste of time trying to have a conversation. I really couldn't be bothered now.

I hope I wasn't like that when I was religious or a JW. Hiding behind a screen of copy paste doesn't get to the authentic person.
