Hello, this is Lotus, I am not suffering from delusions of Grandeur, Rather I consider myself a slave of God and a servant. Matthew 20:26,27 says, ".. whoever wants to be great among you must be your minister, and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave." Lotus

Hello, this is Lotus JW HH {heavenly hope} I'm sorry you all are hurting, but why are you so mean to me? Im not a wild pig in the African Savanah! and you are gathering in packs I see......LOL. Please, so I'm checking this site out, I am trying to see what you have to say.
One thing comes up most often, wondering and doubts why a REAL JW Anointed would come to this site and listen. I have been through a lot. Do you think I am conventional? I have been through fourteen tortuous years of depression because of current understanding .I studied starting at age 19 and wondered what was wrong with me, I never had the earthly hope. but was told I HAD TO. I went through such a hard time, never got baptized and felt like I was going crazy because I knew deep inside I had the heavenly hope. I spent many sleepless nights crying, and even wanted to check myself in the "Almond Joy" hospital ward, because "sometimes you feel like a nut and MOST often you don't. The earthly hopes are the "MOUNDS," they don't have the nuts, but I knew I was an ALMOND JOY. What to do, what to do?
So many elders came to counsel me, because I was not yet even baptized. I had secretly told the sister I was studying with, my feelings and asked her not to tell, but she did. They told me about replacements, but said, it would be someone "with decades of exp" not someone like you, you would be chosen by God. Sisters said, "God would have chosen the circuit overseer before you"
Well God chose the "foolish, weak, and the things looked down upon" to bring down the wise...so no flesh may boast in the site of God. " 1 Cor 1:26-29 Jah hates pride so he sees everything.
I want to love people and do not agree the "CALL" ended in 1935.
It says that Abraham's seed would be chosen out of all nations so would a Chinese person not be eligible. "Sorry you're Chinese, and born at the wrong time, so you can't be one of the Anointed"
Also would a person who died today from a drug overdose, aids or a DUI car wreck, driveby shooting etc, wake up in the resurection and have a King Priest look down at them {the res. person will have all former memories personality etc and learn how to change in the millenium) and the King Priest saying, "sorry don't know what you been through? I lived in the 1800's," Even early 1900's is so different. Jah is just and fair. It will be logical that people would be chosen for every time period to be good judges for their peers.
And did you hear that only half anointed ones are considered by the society to be real. Only half, because the rest are younger and from Russia, parts of Africa etc, countries just opened up.
Just wait and see, more will come out of the Middle East, China. India as well. See, if you all had patience things will change. If you read the history of the Jonadabs you will see that long ago pre 1930's it was bad having the earthly hope, you couldn't even be recognized by the society , then things changed and they were welcomed, But you see, they waited on Jah, they stuck around and were vindicated. That is what I am waiting for, that is why I am still loyal to the society.
In Daniel 11:35 it talks about Jehovah doing a cleansing and refining work. He did it with Jerusalem, he always does that, but it takes PATIENCE. I know things are far from perfect, but do you neglect to fulfill the comission to preach Matthew 24:14 because of a few people and their imperfections? Whom Jah love he disciplines Hebrew 12:6, He will take care of things.
I was so scared, my first Memorial, almost choked on the cracker. But had to do the right thing, Why do others hide and partake at home? I did not want to be ashamed, because Jesus said if you were, he would be ashamed of you. I was 33 years old when I first partook.
I was expecting the worst, Disassociation, teasing etc, counseling, but none of that happened, why? Because they see how hard I try, I go to EVERY meeting, I regular pioneer, I answer and participate. A verse says prove what you yourself are, and What man can Harm you if you are doing good. I did and am richly blessed. I am upset that I am told for fourteen tortuous years I couldn't be one of the anointed, but I stuck in there, the anointed are supposed to be TREES that can't be uprooted by any wind. Why can't you all do the same? When you leave the Org. they would just laugh at you. but if you stay, you prove a better point.
Why throw the baby out with the bathwater? why move out of a house just because of a leaky roof? Just some questions for thought.
You have all left pre-maturely. Proverbs 4:8 says the light can get lighter and lighter," but this is for the path of the righteous ones. The narrow path is not easy. Partaking so young was so hard, so scary, but I did not want to throw off my tortue stake and run down the wide path dancing. Things are going well with me, and it can for you too, if you have the faith the size of the mustard grain and go back to the society, then you can grow into a large tree, Matt 17:20 and be able to move mountains. Think about this. You can be the "NEXT GENERATION" if you all only had patience, because it is those that are FAITHFUL to Jehovah and have PATIENCE that inherit the promises. HEB 6:12 in heaven or earth.
It was so hard for me being so young and partaking at the memorial and remaining a LOYAL witness, but I DID it! I am proof that it is possible to excercise faith when it seems impossible, even if you are an Almond Joy.

A dilemma regarding the 144,000
by Five Gospels insome of the recent posts regarding the "anointed" got me thinking about some of the characters that i have met, or have known about, professing membership among this elite class of people.. one particular character i know of, even today espousing some, shall we say, interesting viewpoints on matters, had an even more interesting past.
it seems that some years ago (c. 1970's) a typically subdued but otherwise ordinary christian meeting was being closed with a prayer at a small kingdom hall in the north eastern usa when it was suddenly disrupted by this individual (even then professing to be anointed) assaulting his wife at the rear of the hall!
he was pretty much disfellowshiped on the spot for his indiscretion.

Hello, I am a loyal WT Anointed class, but one with an open mind, that is why I'm talking to you. We all have a free will, anointed or not. God reads the heart condition first, and invites one into learning about the truth, then we struggle with imperfection.
But truthfully, for the earthly class, they are given white robes, becasue they have practiced righteousness, but NOT reached perfection. They get 1,000 years to do so. An anointed only gets one lifetime, they wont be PERFECT, but have to reach a level in which God will know they will be LOYAL. If they commit a serious sin, in which they no longer want to serve Jah, or are lead away this is what happens.
Fot it is impossible as regards those who have once for all been enlightened and who have tasted the heavenly free gift, and who have become partakers of holy spirit...but have fallen away, to revive them again for repentance, " HEB 6:4,5,6 Thats when they become and promote apostate beliefs. Thanks -

The collapse of the WBTS? - I don't think so.
by dmouse indo we apostates fall into the same trap as jehovahs witnesses when it comes to blinding ourselves to the truth?.
how often have i confronted jws with overwhelming evidence that the so called signs of the times are simply not being fulfilled in our day only for them to bring up some barely relevant snippet of information, which, to them, shoots my argument down in flames?
it is incredible how jws can ignore the camel of evidence that contradicts what they believe and then exult over the gnat of evidence that supports their view.

the answer is "next generation" the Watchtower will not collapse because they are God's people, who else declares Gods name and the good news of the kingdom all over the earth? Matt 24:14
There might be a refining take place though, Dan 11:35
Whom Jah loves he disciplines Hebrews 12:6.
Over time, even God's own people get problems. Is your family PERFECT people, do you disown them if they're not? Would you move out of a house because of a leaky roof? Enough said. I wish you can all have the wisdom to wait. I am a young anointed , and I'm staying loyal to wait, you'll see. -

Please why are you so hard on me? Everthing I wrote was true, but then I read your comments, I figure, hey maybe I should listen to you all after all. Then I realized I will have a hard time knowing whos a disfellow or not, I just want to find young anointed, and learn how I can be the best compassionate person, so I mustve softened up a little. I'm young trying to learn my destiny, how to understand how to judge people in a non-judgemental way. Being young, I struggle to grow. Help me, don't be so harsh,please, I want to learn how to improve the society I am loyal to, that is why I am here. I want to find young anointed, to encourage them to be loyal to the society, but not to make the same mistakes the GB did to influence you all away. Have patience with me please. I am trying to help improve a org. for the better so you all feel like you don't have to leave. LOTUS

Dear people, i posted my first post on Anointed Witness Has No Doubt stating that I have the heavenly hope and was seeking others. Many of you responded and I read all your replies. I am lonely in terms of knowing few other young anointed and being an active witness, so this makes me an oddity among you and in my cong.
Mnay also wondered why I was on this website of ex-witness,. I really have to not care what others think about my intentions. I am an active regular pioneer, and if others knew I was on this website it would raise quite a few eyebrows and trouble, but I am risking that to listen to you people. They do not understand my intentions, and my intentions is to find other young anointed, and to listen to you all. Listen to what is going on in the society through your eyes and experiences and why you are discontent. I want to be a wise and compassionate person, I know I said that I would not talk to disfellowshipped ones, but I meant in a back to forth conversation I cannot. you are welcome to post so I can hear your thoughts.
A wise King, like Solomon did not listen to hearsay, but listened to the people themselves. I see you feel like you are "sheep, skinnned and thrown about without a shepard."Matthew 9:36
and I want to know why so we can find ways to improve.
I want to assure you that things are changing now, very exciting changes, and if you all had just more patience you would see. 2Peter 3:13, and waiting loyaly brings great rewards since Jah will guard the souls of his loyal ones Ps 97:10
I want to show you what the next generation of witnesses can be like, and I do not want to be a faceless unreachable person at Bethel.
I am sorry I called you ranters and ravers who should take up knitting, I tried to do it as a lighthearted laugh, but these are serious times and that was improper of me, forgive me. I do not know how to knit, but if I did I would make each of you a blanket and wrap each of you in it, take you under my wings and comfort you, the hurt ones and the prodigal sons, the sheep thrown about without a shepard.
Things are getting better in the org. the light getting brighter and brighter Proverbs 4:18. Only if you trusted jehovah to see this and come back, there are more young anointed getting ready to welcome you, with patience, there is peace. China has wonderful underground news, and there are begining to be anointed there as well.
I feel sorry for you all, and we are listening, We want to work things out with you people and see ways where improvement is needed. But consider Matthew 24:14 This needs to be done before the end. We have to work this out TOGETHER, I am listening, we are
trying to understand. Lotus -

this is to Musky, and those offended when I suggested to take up knitting, I was joking, seriously! I am so sorry and apologize, my point was that I can have a sense of humor in things and I do want to laugh. I am sorry that you all have suffered, and that being on this website is such a big deal.
I don't care what others think, If I am to be a compassionate person,I want to listen to people and hear valid arguments. I think that is what King Solomon would do. He didn't hear things from hearsay, but heard it from the people.
I do not want to be an unknown distant face at Bethel. I want to be commpasssionate and understanding, and show you what the next generation of Witnesses can be. Forgive me, I am nervous myself being discovered here, But I came here, I guess, to listen and learn what is wrong with the way things are now and being governed.
If I learn what is displeasing you about the org. Then we can work on it from here, I can learn how we can improve things. I love you all, I am sorry you are all hurting, and seeking. We all are.
Love, Your servant

Hi, this is Lotus,the writer of the topic. why am I here? its because it says Jehovah Witness discussion, so I thought it was for Jehovah Witnesses, but I guess I was wrong. It's an ex-witness site? Why can't you all move on from your pain? If you don't want to be a Witness than can you take up some other hobby than this "ranting and raving website" lol You see, I can have a sense of humor. You can take up knitting instead of posting your lurid experiences and frustrated feelings. Ha-ha.
I am always free to be e-mailed to if you're ever hurting. It's so lonely having the heavenly hope feelings, so I am eager to read your experiences and observances in your cong. Looking for the young anointed. Also here to gladly listen to depressed JW's if you want to e-mail. Lonely Lotus -

Hello, I am new to this website, but have to be straightforward and say that I do not agree with most subjects and contents. I am an ACTIVE Jehovah Witness, but I am very lonely so I am looking for others with the "HOPE" or to speak to those that know someone that does. It has been a long , hard road for me.
I have studied for over ten years, but something did not feel right, and nothing "clicked." I knew it was a personal problem because who wouldn't be happy about learning about a paradise earth Pslam 37:29 where righteous people will live, and about a perfect heavenly government that will rule over mankind. Daniel 2:44.
But it was at a memorial before my baptism that my life changed. I saw a sister in her 40's partake, and was astounded. I thought there were hardly anymore heavenly hopes, and she wasn't very old. She was and active and good sister. I finally realized that I never had the earthly hope. Romans 8:15 touched my heart, God's spirit bore witness with mine, and I became a partaker after I was sure to be baptized and active in service. This verse gave me strength "indeed, who is the man that will harm you if you become zealous for what is good?" 1 Peter 3:13
I was in for something special, because my cong. has been so loving and supportive, the elders have been so good to me. So in respect I became "zealous for what is good" being active in service and helping the "faithful and discreet slave" Matthew 24:45, I guess I am a "domestic", accomplishing the ministry in my home terrritory though I would like to work at Bethel one day. I try to love the "great crowd", "the belongings" verse 47 and support them.
It is hard being a "young anointed" but take comfort from this verse, "but God chose the foolish things of the world...the weak things..the ignoble things...the things that are not...in order that no flesh may boast in the sight of God." 1 Cor 1-27-29 So I try to have faith and hope.
I am sure that I won't be using the chat much because of certain ones and certain attitudes that I think are wrong and improper and disrespectful that are in your memberships of this particular site. We must remember that we are here to accomplish Mattthew 24:14 and not live selfish lives which take offense, because "offense rests in the bosom of the stupid ones" No-one is perfect and no-body is "good, only God" Mark 10:18, "all have fallen short," we must keep in mind Galatians 5:22 about "love" and "longsuffering" The Governing Body has to guide 7 million people, and we all have to preach to 6 billion and that is hard work.
I am looking forward to your post, comments and e-mail. [email protected] I cannot talk to disfellowshipped ones please. But look forward to hearing from the rest of you all, who have the "HEAVENLY HOPE" and those that know a brother or sister that do, or other commments. Thanks. May Jehovah give you strength and zeal in the ministry! Lotus
