"Confessions of a teenage Jesus jerk"

by stuckinarut2 in

has anyone else seen the movie "confessions of a teenage jesus jerk"?.

im still processing it, and trying to work out my thoughts..... i would be interested in others thoughts..

Dagney, youtube has it currently. It should be the 2nd link if you type out the full title of the movie. If you still can't find it, search for it on xmovies8.cloud

My thoughts on the movie: It surprised me a bit. I came in watching the movie with the expectation that it might be off or inaccurate. However, I'm glad that they got a lot of things right in the movie. For me still a PIMO in the borg, this movie was a chicken soup for my soul. I could relate to many of the characters and the situations displayed. The ending was powerful. I agree with dubstepped on how Gabe wanted to escape reality, and there was no escaping this time. But was stuck to me was the screaming "Wake up" during that scene. If those who are in or sitting on the fence see this movie, no doubt that message will reach them.

I hope I can get my family to see this movie, as well as Apostasy someday.

August 2018 Study Watchtower - Some wise words for JW's to consider!

by The Fall Guy in

do you have the facts?.

page 3 - as true christians, we need to develop the ability to evaluate information and reach accurate conclusions.. page 4 - it is especially important to avoid (view) websites promoted by apostates.

(awakened jw's) their whole purpose is to tear down (inform) god’s people and to distort (reveal) the truth.

My questions for the Borg:

Borg, if I fact check the ARC, W5, Dateline NBC, the Philly Inquirer, look up multiple court documents and conclude that I am 1000% sure there is something wrong with the Borg, then I'm like the shrewd one in Proverbs and all the reports can't be coming from Satan. Why? Mark 4:22 "For there is nothing hidden that will not be exposed; nothing is carefully concealed that will not come out in the open."

Borg, why should I trust the "few provisions with accurate information", if the information is not accurate, misleading, culty, incomplete, filled with contradictions, and not coming from any one inspired?

Can't wait to discuss this article with people when the time comes and help them see what brainwashing really is.

Get baptised or die!

by AverageJoe1 in

so it would seem that the wts are going back to their old scare tactics again, going by this week’s watchtower study.. loyal baptized ones will be preserved when the present wicked world meets its end.

(mark 13:10; rev.

7:9, 10) this makes dedication and baptism very important.

They just keep doing the easy work for me. Will mention this to my family and others in my hall to try to wake them up a bit. Clearly this is a contradiction to what they have put up on their website:

https://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/who-saved/

The funny part is this line: "In any case, it’s not our job to judge who will or won’t be saved. That assignment rests squarely in Jesus’ hands."

2018 Courage Convention video invitation

by Listener in

the video invitation for the 2018 convention is just creepy.

i thought it was some parody at first as it seems 'dark'.it begins with a young man being pushed whilst standing at his locker and the voice over says that 'in critical times we need courage more than ever'.

next, comes a clip of a male putting his hand on the shoulder of a female worker, the look she gives him would be enough to give him nightmares for the next year.

javierjiminy

This is the gift that keeps on coming. Just told my mom, who I'm trying to wake up, about this and she said there's something wrong here, and that's propaganda. She also said we used to attack other religions for advertising on tv.

Oh Boy! Beards are "stumbling blocks" again ... from Stephen Lett

by freddo in

jw
friends

so this week's midweek meeting video about stumbling others has lett spouting and gurning rubbish again.. if you can't take the whole 9 minutes go from 5:50 to get the context and 6:45 for the "beard" mention.. https://youtu.be/ezv1ici5cwo.

oh, well - at least they shoot themselves in the foot with this doublespeak.

single.

javierjiminy

Vidiot, CC, thanks for the comments and link to that. Lett's talk made no sense whatsoever to me, and as PIMO, I'm trying to wake up my family slowly and cautiously. These should help me a bit.

Vidiot, I'm very curious about this video of someone with a beard. Do you have a link for this?

In one sentence, can you pinpoint a single event that woke you up?

by Brian J in

my turning point: serving on a child abuse judicial case.

.

javierjiminy

My turning point: Finding the secret elders manual, helping my mom for her upcoming JC by using the manual, only to find the elders lied to my mom and dfing her for spiritually weak instead of acknowledging her Bipolar condition and acting pharisaic instead of Christlike.

you know what they say, birds of a feather fly together--what a murder of crows all of'em!.

javierjiminy

It's not down for me. I can still see the leaked videos critique.
