  I had a sister tell me that the clean shaven look is really good because that’s how Jehovah’s people look like. I was gonna tell her that Jehovah’s people in the Bible had beards but I wasn’t gonna debate with her

  JWs don’t break up families

  by Jules Saturn in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i get very angry when i hear this claim being made by jws and get even angrier when i read the article they have on their faq section on jw.org which i’ll leave a link here:.

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

  i know that the majority of this article is written about having a spouse that isn’t a believer and how the bible encourages them to stay together but that’s one of the things that can cause division in a family, for an example if a son or daughter marry a nonbeliever or a worldly person the parents aren’t going to attend the wedding.. once i was told by an elder that if i continued with my behavior of wanting to seek worldly friends and worldly companionship that i would have to leave my home because the holy spirit would leave my house and that would have a huge impact on my family.

  Once I was told by an elder that if I continued with my behavior of wanting to seek worldly friends and worldly companionship that I would have to leave my home because the Holy Spirit would leave my house and that would have a huge impact on my family. I’ve even been threatened by my parents to be cut off from my young siblings and telling me that I would never be able to see them again.

  It’s crazy to me because they will make this claim that they don’t break up families when really that’s the opposite. And I ask to myself “Where is your humanity?” This should be a crime against humanity. I ask myself where is the biblical instruction on this? What happened to the parable of the Prodigal Son? As I said, it’s a very inhuman practice

  “There’s nothing out there in the world for you...”

  by Jules Saturn in

  2. experiences

  how would you guys react if or when you were told this phrase by a jw while having a conversation?

  another phrase is “this world...” or “this system, like gum will chew you up and when it’s done with you, spit you right back out.”.

  one i’ve been personally told was from a convert that had told me “whenever i speak to young ones that want to know if the grass is greener on the other side, i tell them i was a part of it.

  Explanation please on the change of the term "worldly"

  by careful in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've picked up from several replies to posts here that the org has stopped using the term "worldly" as it applies to people.

  this must have happened after i left.

  would someone be so kind as to explain the "rationale" behind this shift?

  The word “worldly” is still being used, but I’ve heard the term “non believer” or “unbeliever” as an attempt to replace “worldly”. Think about it though, if you’re a devout Catholic, you would still be considered a “non believer”

  Nicolas King: JW celebrity and example of hypocrisy

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  nicolas king frequently sings with the watchtower chorus and had a supporting role in the dvd released at the 2014 convention.

  (he's on the bottom row, second from the right.).

  but he also is a jazz singer, traveling constantly performing at concerts, casinos, charity events, even a brief appearance on the tonight show.

  by dozy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  anybody got any idea why the cover picture on the young people ask book was changed?

  they removed the picture of the boy bottom right & superimposed a different head.

  maybe the guy got dfd or maybe it was to change it to an asian guy rather than 2 caucasians?
