The True Church worships Almighty God and Jesus night and day. They need no doctrine or creed of men. They follow the teachings of Jesus . They have quit looking to the world. They will not be chasing money, or influence. They are content with what they have, they live a life of love, justice and mercy towards others , they are self sacrificing in every way, they do not get involved with heated debates or spiritual tennis, Jesus is on their mind night and day to wlak and talk with him, they are free form any teaching of man to worship God, they have joy and peace despite all their troubles, they do not have a lot of money,they will give everything they have to help another, they will put up with a brother or sister who has doen wrong , they will not turn their backs, they are humble and seek truth always, they are not afraid to consider all things, they never judge anyone or any organisation,they have no need fromany other book except the bible no aids or accompiants

to Black Sheep
The ones who purposly stay inside the church or churches will shar ein the judgment of that church. Paul warns Christians to be careful that although they are grafted onto the tree we ar eonly there to make the Jews jealous and that he can easily break us off . God himself tells us he will take away what we have and give it to those not looking to those who have not heard etc , those who do not know the Lord he will himself create a people for his own special posssesion , the poor, the meek, etc. He will pour out his spirit upon ALL FLESH . Every knee will bow and every tongue confess jesus is Lord . Christendom may or may not have lost what was given to them. Jesus said as soon as he left earth the Great Apostacy would start all of Christianity is in apostacy. The true church are those who have seperated themselves form the church and follow the Lord

Kingdom Hall got Disassociated
by Quarterback inwell, i thought i've seen everything.. a congregation in our city just sold thier kingdom hall.
they must have been desparate, because they sold it to an evangelical group for an amount less than what they boasted about.
but, these are hard financial times.. all i could remember is the 25 yrs ago, dedication talk.

Exit Strategy - My plan to leave
by FrankWTower ini've been intellectually awake for about three years now.
it's taken me time but i've figured out an exit strategy to leave the jw's as frictionless as possible.
it's impossible to leave with my dignity in tact but, leaving will be worth it.

There is no church any more. There is no sin only the works of the flesh. Jesus put an end to it all at the cross. The true worshippers were to worship in spirit and truth. There is no more doctrine,dogma or creed. Every organisation,church or religion is counterfeit and Anti Christ. The true church as mentioned by Jesus is not of this world and is spiritual. It is not built by human hands but Our Saviour is that church, he is the cornerstone and we are the bricks. God does not dwell in buildings. It is spiritual in nature and dwells in the heart of every true believer. Man has spent 2000 years searching for the true religion. When in fact it is right there in us once we accept Jesus as Lord and Saviour. All we here from denominations and religions is. “Our teaching is correct ,the other is wrong”. They keep searching the scriptures thinking by knowing them they have eternal life. Remember Jesus is the word. He super cedes the scriptures once we come to an accurate knowledge of our saviour. Yes the Gospels are the source of getting to know our God. But God himself teaches us all we need to know. That is all we need as believers. The true Christians are those who have realised this and set themselves free from the enslavement by men and false teachers. This is the great deception by Satan. We think we should belong to this church or that organisation. When in fact we belong to Jesus. They have no need to be taught. God himself teaches us the truth. Are we listening to him in our inner self. Probably not because we are indoctrinated from being children and again when we are adults. We listen to man rather listening to the Holy Spirit that dwells in us. We are living in self deception. We let our selves be lead by others because we do not have the confidence to walk with the Lord ourselves. Once the last of the Apostles were gone. The great Apostacy took over and the enslavement began. So since that time probably since the destruction of Jerusalem( im guessing). Believers were to live in Spirit and Truth only. All other things ceased. The true believers wait patiently for the Lords return whenever that date is either today or a million years from now. Thats it. So while millions are arguing who is right and who is wrong. Thos ewho truly love God and neighbour carry on their work out of love, not blowing their trumpet, not enslaved by teachings and commands of humans. They continue to grow in love and knowledge of the Lord. They heeded the Lords call to get out of Babylon the Great if you do not want to share in her sins. That is all those who profess Christianity and continue to say here is Christ. Only a few have realised this and many others do know it but do not have the confidence to set themselves free.
He is the Way and Truth. There is nothing in between. The true believers keep on telling the Good News by whatever means. But by their fruits you will know them .They have the fruits of the spirit
and not works. They have no need or desire to tell someone they are not a Christian if they go to different churches they have no desire to argue about doctrines, which bible is right, debates or arguments etc. They have no desire to get involved with the worlds affairs or disputes or protests or social injustice. Are you one of these ?. I urge you to set your self free. Judgement will come upon the churches all of them. Also they are setting themselves up not only from the wrath of God. But the wrath of the nations.
Love in Christ

any comments would be appreciated. Just don't throw insults or nasty remarks if you disagree. Consider all things. If I'm wrong then I'm happy to admit it.

There is no church anymore. There is no sin. Jesus put an end to it all. Every human organisation is counterfeit and Anti Christ. The true churhc is not of this world. It is built not by human hand sbut by jesus who is the cornerstone and his bleievers who are the bricks. It is spiritual in nature it is not visible. It dwells in us. The true follower sare those who have set themselves free from the enslavement of denominations, churches and organisations. They all bleong to satan. They have no need to be taught by anyone. It has already been set out for us by Our wonderful Saviour and the APostles. Once they left earth. That was the end. Their mission wa saccomplished,So since then beleivers live in spirit and truth only. Living lives of justice mercy love for God and neighbour. God himslef teaches us the truth. All other things have ceased knowledge,speaking in tongues etc. The true beleievers wait patiently for the Lord to rescue them from their sins and this wicked world. Thats it. In revelation .The Lord warns us to get out of babylon the great, which is all churches,denominations and organisations who say here is christ etc.. The Lord is and has been calling his people out from it for 2000 years. Only a few have realised this and followed the Lord. They recognise others whotruly love the Lord whatever their denomination or religion and fellowship in love and harmony.They have no need or desire to ge tinvolved with doctrines or debates or arguments. They have no need of material things. They do not blow a trumpet at their works.
What do you think of that

Look at the bible as a historical record. In it is the revelation of our savoiur. In it you will get to know him and Our Heavenly Father. You will discover their love and their wisdom and also their personalities. Be careful that you do not fill your self with lots of stuff that will enslave you . Walk with Jesus he will set you free.

Hi
God Bless your heart. You need to draw close to the Lord . Get to know him more each day bask in his love for you. You dont need anything else .You dont need a church to teach you anything. Enjoy the fruit of the spirit and whatever you do , do it for Gods Glory. He will never let you down. You are complete in your faith. Dont let anyone steal your joy . If you go to a church they will enslave you to live alife of guilt,condemnation and you trying to do what is right acording to their teachings. You are saved by Gods grace and love for you and you can never do anything to earn that precious gift. jesus tells you to come to him and you will find rest.God himself will teach you the way you should go. The Lord has adopted you as one of his children. He loves you like no human can. Stay close to him, learn form him and learn to live a life of loving God and others , dont judge and your path will be glorious. There is no true religion. The true churhc is one not made by human hands. The one the Apostle Paul mentions in Hebrews. Let us go with confidance into the Holy place right into the presence of God the true church not made by human hands. He was tlaking about the heavenly realm .We ar eto live in spirit and truth. Jesus put an end to all of mans ways at the cross including religion. He is the way and truth and life . There is nothing or no one in between you and him.
Love
Phil
