Judith, what you said about knowing God would forget but the jw's wouldn't. I always felt that way too. I was more affraid of how the witnesses would react. I guess that's because I always knew deep down that God knew my heart and the jw's didn't nor ever would.
God is love...........The jw's instill fear.
I used to have thoughts that maybe they were right, but the more I learn about their past history. I know they are wrong wrong wrong. The time I was dissfellowshiped they didn't have all the facts just what I told them. I was ashamed and could not face them and they df'd me in my absence. Funny, the whole time I knew God had forgiven me. Iwill never in my life let mere men have that kind of control over my life again.
