Pistolpete -"A lot of my JW family are confused. Some of them have opened up after all these years and are telling me they don't understand what is happening. Some have told me that it makes no sense that Jehovah would stop the preaching work for an entire year. Why would he do that if we are living in the last days and lives are at stake"
I seem to remember back in the mid 80's to mid 90's when the "increase was on" there was no end of hearing scriptures like Isaiah 2:2 (KJV) And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.
These days with all of the congregation amalgamations ("What a blessing from Jah") and hall sales, how can the regular Dubs not be confused?
The society is haemorrhaging credibility.

a doozy in today's study article brought me to post here for the first time in a while.
once again, watchtower leadership is doing its level best to make their adherents as fearful of inconvenient facts as they, themselves, are.. "like timothy, we must also discern the danger of false information spread by apostates.

russia's reason for banning jehovah's witnesses is said to be due to extremism.
but what exactly does that mean, or refer to?
specifically, what practice (or practices) of jehovah's witnesses does russia consider to be extreme?
Or was it because the Borg was really just a cover for a big money pump back to the USA?

why is there a group so fearful of being tracked?
if you carry around a cell phone, your every movement is being tracked, even if you disable it.
court proceedings have shown google and apple can hand all the data over of all your movement.
Were people this stupid before the internet ??
Yes, for sure, they just did not have a platform before the days of social media.

*** update 2020/11/21 ****.
hello people,.
some time ago i made my first on this forum after i have just woken up.. i was very scared and honestly i am still amazed from the fact that i am still getting replies in the old thread.. here is the link to my previous thread: link.
Dear Scarlett, don't be too hard on the witness at your work, they are a victim also.
Your whole world has been tipped upside down just now and not getting a good sleep is normal in such a situation, in time you will feel peace and contentment. My best advice for now is don't fall into a habit of drinking a lot, it's easy to get into and hard to get out and with regard to new friends there are a lot of nice people out there, but vet them carefully, look for people with goals and ambitions and avoid people that use drugs.
Always, always be kind and polite to your parents, not only do they deserve your respect but they are victims also and they will soften in time.
