  My Boyfriend is a recent Ex Jehovah Witness

  by whatisthis12 in

  2. relationships

  i have been dating my boyfriend for almost a year now.

  when i met him i had no idea that he was a jehovah witness.

  we took a vacation and he lied to his parents about who he was with, and they ended up finding out not only that he way lying, but who i was.

  Your with a guy who is only months into deprograming from a cult that has the persuasion that the best salesman would be proud. If you take this guy on he will need a lot of help. You need to use the search bar on this site with the words ..family and sadness, and read these stories of real people who have had a religion destroy their families . If he believes the Jw doctrine and is not open to apostate views you need to run like hell , because if this religion gets in your home with children then it will repeat history with another cult affected child, also remember Jw children won't have blood transfusions this could also complicate things. I wish you well with your complex decisions. Cheers Chook

  The most successful teaching of Jehovah's Witnesses and an amazing new book on the divine name

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  jehovah's witnesses have had to revise their chronology and various doctrinal interpretations due to events and scholarly corrections.

  but the one teaching where they have been consistently ahead of the curve is the importance of jehovah's name.. .

  i'm going to run through a (necessarily selective) timeline of jw events and scholarly publications that demonstrate the phenomenal success of this teaching in the last days.

  So it boils down to is it gods name and was it in NT , evidence suggests no one knows the pronunciation and it was not preserved in scripture. One of Babylon the greats monks the same guys that WT says are going to Gehenna come up with the name. And in all honesty if it is what God wanted people to know him by I think he could of made everything a little less cryptic. And if there is a father in heaven he sure would not be happy withe the fraudulent religion that is bearing his name, no other religion does a better job a destroying generational family structure. This religion that has screamed wolf is in its third century of existence, just like a broken clock is right twice a day, if you go in to the forest enough a wolf will surely be seen.

  If the essence of God being honest well JW have surely disappointed him.

  regarding the recent 1975 video at the convention it hit me !.

  when reasoning with people about the inspiration of the bible we used the bible writers candor ie/ there honesty when recording bible accounts about there personal mistakes .. how come the governing body despite its claims to be spirit directed are not honest about there mistakes ?.

  This is religious fraud at the highest levels, just when we thought most of there problems originated years ago this current GB have done the unthinkable and tried to bullshit history. I personally reckon some would have left the Jw camp over this lying from the top down. Anyway this current bunch at the top would fit in well in any decade because the deceit has not altered for 140 years , fairytales and magic tricks work wonders on the crowds especially anything unseen ( heaven,hell angels ,god ) is the whole bible. Then they throw in the miracles . The next miracle from Warwick is how to fit 244000 in heaven.

  Watchtower Internet Presence Spells Doom For the Cult With Every Passing Year.

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  think of it : the internet as a source of information and exposing to human kind many alternative interpretations of literature content spells doom for watchtower bull shit as all countries raise their intelligence to what is right and wrong and what is self serving and biased by religious indoctrination, such consciousness will become so common place that religious bull shit will not be very tolerated by the masses as we proceed forward.

  it is just a matter of excellorateded of information available to the mean average users.

  It was one of there early internet mistakes that will haunt them, they encouraged brothers to not load official WT literature on websites, so all IT brothers didn't set up websites with links. So apostates now dominate google, and the Warwick warhorse is injured.

  Why is the "faithful slave" not declaring the COMPLETE kingdom message?

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. watchtower

  w16 january p. 26 par.

  15 - "during the last days, jehovah has continued to select those who will make up the 144,000. if he chooses to wait until late into that period to select some for that privilege, who are we to question his wisdom?

  during the past 80 years, thanks to the "slave's" direction, j.w.

  It's about being exclusive , the heavenly hope is reserved for JW missionaries only. No one is taught that the heavenly hope might apply to them.

  My jaw dropping OMG moment at the end of the convention

  yes folks.

  over the past few days i can honestly say the convention was relatively quite good.

  most of the talks, videos, symposiums were in line with scripture if you have faith in the bible.

  The partakers are on the rise , their in a dilemma the numbers are rising fast , prewarn to soften the blow to the RF , if the steam train of numbers can't flatten they will cease to count then give some bullshit excuse as to these mundane matters don't really matter. They will drink the koolaid no matter what flavour.

  Stupid Illustration

  2. beliefs

  so as i sit here listening to the sunday morning bs session the elder on the stage yapped about religion and that there can only be one religion leading to god.

  he used the illustration of a bicycle wheel.

  it has many spokes and they all lead to the center.

  A better illustration would be to say removing the push bike seat leads to God .

  Marry only in the Lord

  by Jules Saturn in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  the second half of 1 corinthians 7:39 reads "...she is free to be married to whomever she wants, only in the lord.".

  so we all know that scripture for being doctrine for witnesses when they select a marriage mate and how they are strictly encouraged to marry amongst themselves and look down upon or marked if they marry an outsider.

  i have a friend who met a worldly man and when it came to light, her father gave her the option to end the relationship or to marry him, and she chose the latter.

  Marrying only in the lord works when there equal numbers, the unfortunate sisters and some good looking ones that are left with little choice but to choose a guy who otherwise would never have the personality to find a decent women. It's all about keeping the money in house.
