I remember a sister who had been coping for years, mentally distraught, df'd, committed suicide..... no elder or ms from her hall attended or gave a talk- yet she grew up in the congregation, father was an elder once.
Myself and many others from several cong attended though, we are not to judge those who have gone through so much, yet the so called judges did not attend. Later the org comes out with somewhat of a change of direction in SFOG book re suicides-- too little, too late there are those elders and ms who still would not attend even with the SFOG direction- every congregation seems to be either too liberal, grey areas, or too strict - some would not even allow kids to go to skating parties, etc.
And they wonder???

JWs and Prepping
by TD inthe jws i know (which admittedly are more liberal than most) are suddenly into prepping to one degree or another.
some have simply assembled "go bags" with basic common sense supplies in case they need to bug out in the event of a natural disaster and others seem to be seriously into it, almost to the degree to which mormons are.
backup generators and a year's supply of food and water).

Where do you live? You sound like you have a well run congregation!
Can I go where you are?
Go bags - a necessity in this day and age.
Elders know you when service time is required if you forget to call/text/email it in. However, since congregations have been designated to combine with other congregations, the halls that we were always told to run to if crisis arises, are being sold off. The grand new huge buildings in the US were also mentioned to run to, really? I live in Canada, I am sure that when turmoil/crisis/natural or otherwise happens, I and all others will not be hiking it to the US or Ontario to get protection. Majority of most congregations are seniors now since those now living will never die- but wait, that was back in the 30's. That promise is long gone and now, how can they move, how can they run..... food for thought.
I hope you are well in body and spirit cause you will be the first in line to help those in need with that attitude. Keep it up!

Scriptures That Bothered You as a JW Kid.

OMG Seabreeze- what an eye opener to prove the org wrong in that they say Michael, the archangel is Jesus!
How many times have I read that and NEVER got the point of what it said!
Michael was ONE of the archangels, there are others in that position Gabriel for one-yet the org picked Michael to be "Jesus". Did he(Jesus) --as all in heaven and earth was created by him, create Michael who then became Jesus? how controverted in that?
Jesus created Michael who later became Jesus- am I wrong in that answer- according to org, yes- according to logic, no!

Physically in mentally agnostic ie sitting on the fence
by ExBethelitenowPIMA inhi everyone i’m not pimi or pimo i’m pima.. i don’t think the gb have everything right but i’m sitting on the fence that maybe they do some things.. if the great trib starts i will jump that side of the fence.. this is a definite little sneaky advantage dodging but even by their own doctrine last min some could come in.. i suspect many are like me.. i spent years in bethel and am very disappointed and disillusioned by it all.. but at the end of the day i love the bible and think it is the word of god and i don’t see any other religion that comes as close to what jesus describes his true followers or who are fulfilling mat 24:14..

EBPIMA-
You believe in Jesus, you love the bible, that's great, you believe holy spirit is involved because the org. has promoted the HS for years UNTIL -THEY DROPPED the holy spirit from the scripture that all must be baptized in the name of the father, the son AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. (so who wrote all those mags, brochures, new light??)
NOW, the second baptism question omits the HOLY SPIRIT from that scripture- and baptizes you into the ORGANIZATION! Isn't that a surprise? They gloss this misuse of the written word by indicating this organization is Jehovahs organization - well, where is the scripture for that? Doesn't the bible say that no one word is to be removed, especially the holy spirit, the rememberer that Jesus himself spoke of? How can you take a hard look at what you are saying by not realizing everyone, everyone being baptized now is really no part of that scripture, but brain f'd that they will have life because of this man made, money making, real estate, investment in blue chip stocks, taking money from a gambling operation, hiding child abuse and when found to be guilty, offer NDA's so the "Brothers" can protect Jehovahs Organization ? Do you really think Jehovah or Jesus want to be part of THAT organization? If you do, you are really off course- sure the org is preaching around the world, why? Ever hear of the Amway corporation? More Bodies, more money in the machine, but when you ask, why do they need more money? Who knows? Its more than worldwide work- its to pay off the worldly lawyers they HAVE to pay for legal woes, wait! Let's sell more halls... lets ask more from the pubs who are already paying EVERY MONTH an amount of $$ so we would not have mortgages to pay off IF we needed updates to the hall. ( but then with all the deeds to the halls, land donated, halls built by volunteers- stolen) You have been in bethel, (seems u are not) get out and clear your head if your still in.. See the org for what it is... I'm sure you can't take what you find out, so put your head back in the sand. And if your a troll, working at bethel on their super duper A I system, hopefully you can use the brain you have to start figuring it out, MR. PIMA
Oh I forgot- they won't help you get to the new system - why you ask, because THEY are saying Jesus did not die for you- but the BIBLE does say he died for the world that believed in him... Just another little smack in the head with a revelation you don't hear when you are studying to become a JW. It's a bait and switch organization, bring you in cause you love the Bible, then slowly, slowly erase that thought and die for an organization that is misleading you
Have a great day- we have all been there, many times believing the direction, putting faith in men, only to be left disillusioned, a victim in the worst way - spiritually. Keep on seeking, keep on knocking this board can help if you are being truthful in your quest.

Five members of Jehovah's Witness congregations across Pennsylvania charged with sexual abuse of children

The PEW Research a few years back, gave the percentage of women in the org 65%. Women of a mature age ( over 40) do not have a chance to get a husband as the men - no matter what their age - go for the young. Virgins aplenty and ready to train!
A lot of problem in Pennsylvania is that there can be a marriage of a child under the age of 16, when parents give them their consent. This is also the law in seven other states. Due diligence by the public to change these laws is apparent but where polygamy exists and the extra wives and children are on state help, there has to be a solution, and the holdup for 18 years in Penn passing a law, shows what is controlling the perverted minds of those in power- who says religion and politics are separate, especially when it comes to the abuse of the young.
Hopefully a woman in charge, who can relate, will fix Penn state law.
