  I'm so extremely bothered that my whole family donates to this cult and their donation money is used to pay these lawsuits.

  a few years back i was in a meeting between fades and it was the co visit.

  he said something i thought was crazy and a lot of jws buy into this mentality.

  i don't remember the talk but he asked this question.. what if this isn't the truth?

  As I get older, I also agree how valuable time is. My husband sometimes says we should resume meetings to placate our families. I have not agreed to this for the simple fact that I want to enjoy that time that I know I won't be enjoying that grueling meeting. I told him it's completely useless to go back because that won't be good enough. Pressure will be put on us to do more- we lived that life- I'm done with that!

  Is Satan real and all this powerful?

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  2. beliefs

  wikipedia article on jehovah's witnesses:satanjehovah's witnesses believe that satan was originally a perfect angel who developed feelings of self-importance and craved worship.

  satan influenced adam and eve to disobey god, and humanity subsequently became participants in a challenge involving the competing claims of jehovah and satan to universal sovereignty.

  other angels who sided with satan became demons.jehovah's witnesses teach that satan and his demons were cast down to earth from heaven after october 1, 1914, at which point the end times began.

  The fear that vanished from my life as I started to dismiss belief in Satan was remarkable. I highly recommend purging this toxic lie from your life

  Situation: A brother reads a news article on the Internet that contains false accusations and half- truths about Jehovah’s Witnesses. He begins to harbor doubts and lose his spiritual balance

  Question: How can this brother be helped to ‘keep his senses’ by reasoning on the following scriptures? [Proverbs 14:15; Matthew 5:10-12; John 10:4, 5]

  When help is provided as soon as problems are identified, they can be resolved before they be- come serious

  Jehovah will help us by giving us power and wisdom to care for his flock during these critical times (Pr 2:6)

  So they are going to continue this charade that news and Internet are full of half truths and lies about Jws...I mean this "them against us" complex is going too far

  i also find it deplorable that the outline has to tell the CO that the tone of the elder servant meeting should be loving - how sad they don't KNOW that already

  quickly glanced through it and noticed these bits of "food at the proper time.

  i'll leave the lap-dancing comment on page 25, par.

  12 and the "how to give us more money" item on pages 28,29,30,31,32 for others to pick up on... page 16, par.

  Should publishers with kids tell the elders the wt for this lap dancing article is PG-13 in its subject matter so they will pass attending- so inappropriate for all those children that shouldn't have even entered the world due to the encouragement of the GB to seek first the kingdom not having children...

  The Latest Thing Waking People Up...

  by pale.emperor in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  since i woke up and left i've been contacted by others i knew from my youth who've also left the cult.

  also people around the world on facebook adding me out of the blue because we have mutual friends and they occasionally ask me stuff or share their story.. what i've noticed in the vast majority of cases, is that people are waking up not because of the arc or doctrine but apathy.

  active jws are becoming less and less interested, less and less bothered.

  "It was due to the fact that a JW must work, work, work to be even in the congregation - let alone in good standing. Constantly scrutinizing oneself (and others), having no day free to just relax and being told that if you're relaxing you're not giving your all."

  this was part of the reason we stopped going-
  I also agree with the cry wolf problem and also notice a lot of Jws living their lives now

  my wife was diagnosed with ms about two years ago.

  we have been living in ohio for the last 5 years but were recently assigned to a new congregation because of the dissolving and sale of our congregation/kh.

  my wife's symptoms spiked after being relocated to our new hall back in january.
