Advice on fade?

by NotNorwich in

jw
friends

hello, i’ve just joined here and am hoping for some advice.

i was baptised a long time ago but left soon after (da).. i recently returned and have a bible study.

was reinstated about a year ago.

My advice: get some "worldly " friends or family who can help you in the transition. Always keep quiet around Jw's they will rat you out in a heart beat. Plan and plan.

Are JWs becoming more militant?

by Vidqun in

after their courtcase in norway going wrong, splane actually warns lawmakers that they will be in big trouble if they don't change their ways.

he's referring to the preaching work, which has nothing to do with the case.

it's all about their treatment of ex-jws.

it is useless for you to contact me, i already know that according to the new update of the governing body, you can contact me.. but the problem is... you can only invite me to meetings, and at most say "hello" once i'm there.. i already know.. so, if you really want to know how i'm doing, even if it's irrelevant for the purposes of this contact, i'll tell you.. i am not well.

i'm depressed and full of psychotropic drugs.

of course, being isolated from everyone i knew and loved didn't help.. here's how i am.. and for a thousand reasons, there is no question of becoming an "associate" in the congregation again.. ergo, it's useless.. there's no point in contacting me, because that's the only goal.. it's not out of a rush of love.

My open letter would be just be just don't bother! You're Bullshit!

If the org. Is being advised by consultants, is a name change in the works?

by nowwhat? in

let's be honest, there's a stigma to the name jehovah's witness.

if they are going more mainstream.

i imagine the first recommendation was a name change.

I got what their can rename themselves, "Church of Ignorance ", "World Org of Stupidity ".

What Makes You an Apostate?

by Aletheia1914 in

i was really excited about all the wonderful news related to these changes.

i disassociated back in 2019 and my parents have not spoken with me since then.

my brother who never got baptized kind of serves as a liaison between me and my parents as they will not contact me directly.

This is a Watchtower definition. I No longer want to be a Jw because of fraud and misleading advice from Watchtower.

My friends don't care that I use to be a Jw neither does my family. This their rules, I got my own life.

New light

by Elena in

things are changing so rapidly.

there is so much confusion now.. if we can talk to disfellowshiped/disassociated ones to invite them to meetings then is it really going to stop there?.

some family members haven’t had contact for decades and now after yesterdays new light they will all be getting calls.

Watchtower: " Come Back to the Org!"

Me: " I have love for my brothers, but brother, Please! No toxic abuse from you!"

New light on shunning?

by Mikejw in

one theory why tony was booted out was because he was a stickler for not changing the shunning doctrine.

he actually said the words we will never ever change it.. they are slowly deleting all of tony’s videos and now losing court cases and losing government hand outs in places like norway.. it’s looking very likely they will release new light on shunning policy after losing this latest one in norway.. .

what are the odds they coincidentally get new light from jehovah and lighten up their shunning policy ?.

It's all about money for Watchtower! I have voted with my feet. My butt does not fill a seat anymore at a Kingdumb Hall.

They Came To The Door!

by NotFormer in

jw
friends

going door to door with their "memorial" invitation.

"so you can pass the emblems but nobody partakes?

them: "we can explain who is to partake".. me: "all jesus' followers".

Watchtower's frowning on higher education and then asking for paralegals or engineers that are trained to help them for free. Ooh, Please!

My fingers are big, instead of down it should be done from my last post.
