Jehovah’s Witnesses That Acted Like Humans
by minimus inwhen you look back , did your witness associates act like normal human beings?
did any of them ever show compassion and feelings for a disfellowshipped person?.
any elders ever try to be kind to you, not “kind” as watchtower organization dictates, but truly kind and caring for you if you were experiencing difficulties?

What is the most insensitive thing an Overseer or Elder has ever said and done to you?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inwhat is the most insensitive thing an overseer or elder has ever said and done to you?
i have had many insensitive things said to me by some elders, but for some reason one self-righteous elder was always on my case.
he didn't like the fact that i missed meetings, didn't like that i never went out in field service, that i didn't answer at the weekly meetings and he didn't like that i carried my books and magazines in my hands and not a service/book bag.

Many years ago when I was an unbaptized publisher an elder with the surname "Jolley" snapped at me "you'll never be a Christian." In 2015, just before our district convention, I was anointed with holy spirit. About two years ago I came to the understanding that my Bible knowledge is far beyond what the Governing Body (or anyone else) possess (Matthew 17:11). I hear and feel all the pain here. I am preparing the way for Christ to act and rectify these problems (Mal. 3:1; 4:5,6; Rev. 11:3-6).

An elder denied that I had received the heavenly calling (Romans 8:33).

Did you know that the Bible foretells that a prophet will be sent to God's people and he will do away with the unbiblical, unchristian, and cruel man-made doctrine of shunning?
“Look! I am sending to you E·liʹjah the prophet before the coming of the great and awe-inspiring day of Jehovah. And he will turn the hearts of fathers back toward sons, and the hearts of sons back toward fathers, so that I may not come and strike the earth, devoting it to destruction.” (Mal. 4:5,6).
Other versions put it this way:
Contemporary English Version
"He will lead children and parents to love each other more.."
Good News Translation
"He will bring fathers and children together again.."The very last sentence tells us how strongly God feels about this false doctrine.
What's more, that prophet will also "restore all things" (true Christianity and other important Bible truths) (Matt. 17:11). I know who he is. Would you like to see some of his restoration message? (Mal. 3:1).

What is the JW view on the vaccine rollout?
by MebyonKernow inout of morbid curiosity...what is the jehovah's witnesses current view about the vaccine rollout?is the watchtower society advocating the position to take the covid vaccine?
is it a personal 'conscience' matter?
how many jws are refusing the vaccine does anyone know?

The modern vaccination process was developed by a member of Babylon the Great (Edward Jenner). In case you don't know, Babylon the Great is NOT the "world empire of false religion" as taught by JW's.
Some are saying that at least one of the covid vaccines is not a vaccine at all but it is gene therapy (mRNA).
Others are saying that the covid jab was developed from the cells of aborted foetuses.
