  What was the last thing you said to your jw family?

  by caves in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  7 years ago i had my last conversation with the toxic jw that mostly raised me.

  every conversation was toxic for my entire adult life with her.

  the last time we spoke was right before the memorial 7 years ago and she was laying on the usual heavy guilt and fear mongering about how jeho counts his people at the memorial.

  Who is the mediator for jehovahs witnesses?

  2. beliefs

  lm getting conflicting advice.ls it the 144000 or jesus.l was always under the impression it was jesus.lf its the 144000 then when they pray the jw;s should be praying through the remnant not in jesus christs name but in the 144000;s name..

  Bible = 1 Timothy 2:5 "For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"

  From the JW Insight Book = He (Jesus) mediates the new covenant between God and those taken into the new covenant, the congregation of spiritual Israel (144,000).

  What does this circle of logic mean? The Watchtower Bible & Tract Society has set itself up as the mediator between man (any member of the great crowd) and God. This is in direct conflict with what the bible teaches on all levels! To JW's Jesus mediates the new covenant between God and only the 144,000 anointed JW's.

  So how does that make you JW's feel to have the WT remove Jesus as your mediator between you and God?

  At your next meeting at the KH look over at that bat shi$ crazy anointed brother/sister and know that Jesus IS his/her mediator and NOT yours....and do this while reading John chapter 10.

  Yes. Truly an "exciting and momentous time" culminating into sheer let down that woke many up. Kind of like the internet does today.

  So funny how the air at Brooklyn was caustic in 1976 from the failed expectation murmuring, leading to so many asked/made to leave, leading to GB on multiple times insinuating it was a purge from Jehovah. In morning worship, they used the Biblical example of skimming off the "scummy dross", that they in effect knew of the murmuring and intentionally gave it time to rise to the surface.

  These memories are like scary clowns peeking out of a port-a-potty.

  I need to go find my happy place.

  Epiphany #2

  by Solzhenitsyn in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  so after much emotional struggle out into the open comes why my dear wife continues to want to stay with the wt organization.. i simply couldn't understand why someone so intelligent would suffer from such confusion wether to stay active or fade away when she has faced and accepted the anti-jw facts.

  simply put: she was raised with such sick instability that jw life was the only thing that provided stability, the only thing she felt she could count on.

  to this day this remains the primary reason she stays "in".

  Simply put: She was raised with such sick instability that JW life was the only thing that provided stability, the only thing she felt she could count on. To this day this remains the primary reason she stays "in". She openly affirms 1914, 607, GB edicts, WT prognostications, local BOE stooges, ect is all a bunch of unnecessary crap and feels noone needs to know her thoughts on the matter. It's the 'safe place' that she can't see herself peeling or being peeled away from.

  Any suggestions on how to approach this deeply entrenched emotional matter?

  Looks like Dan Lauria (Dad from Wonder Years) calling the shots. Bill Pullman would have been great in this scene BTW.

  Is that the back of Jeff Goldblums head on the left?

  Eamonn Walker from Lord of War appears to be to the right of Dan Lauria.

  On the mind/fear control back screens I see:

  1) New commercial style KH

  2) Lil Sammy

  3) Warwick HQ

  Gosh this brings back memories.

  I was one of 2 elders assigned to coordinate receipt of all the surprise Bible's and recruited 4 key men (other elders). So we drove all the way to the WT literature Depot. The boxes were not labeled in a way that would give away their contents. The literature Depot servant who lives at the depot told me whilest loading that not even his wife knew what was in all the tractor trailer load of boxes.

  They sat in my garage for a week before I carted them to the KH with GB directed specific distribution directions. It all "paid off" to see the tears of joy streaming down the faces of hundreds as they received one OF THE MOST PERVERTED INTERPRETATIONS OF SCRIPTURE EVER PRINTED.

  And there you go.
