  Thank you for your response sue ,I understand better now.But please don`t fall back into the trap of trying to get re-instated again ,

  look into JWFacts b4 you make that fateful decision.I

  was a convert at 20 years old convinced my then GF to become one also and her sister and a nephew of ours ,married my then GF in a KH a year later ,brought up 2 boys in da troof ,37 years later we were all out ,Thank god ,no he/she had nothing to do with it.It was because of some little niggling points that didn`t seem to gel and then doing my own research on the internet that clinched the deal.JW/WT is a man made American religion that is nothing more or less than a cult religion

  .Don`t minimize all of their failed prophecy`s / predictions ,and there are many over the years ,which proves they do not have God`s spirit backing them.Unless you think GOD doesn`t know what he is talking about.

  
  Take care

  , I wish you well.smiddy3

  the whitewashing of tm111 from jw history continues - tending to confirm that he was booted.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ghbhv6961a.

  i'm pretty sure the cult got him to sign a nice nda - in exchange for a lifetime residency in the house bought by wt..

  I fail to understand if what she is accusing him of is true , why hasn`t she made a formal complaint to the police, or authorities ?

  Or has she ?

  And if what she is publicly accusing him of is false ,she is opening herself up to being sued by him / and or WatchTower ?

  And she doesn`t come across as being a silly / stupid woman just looking / seeking attention !

  I guess we will just have to keep watching this space for further developments.

  She may very well be a brave woman to do so , so publicly.

  "Career Christians" ignore these Scriptures

  by BoogerMan in

  2. beliefs

  the apostle paul instructed christians regarding work and providing for oneself.

  his bible standards and instructions are completely dismissed by everyone who's jumped on the christianity gravy-train:.

  (acts 18:3) "and on account of being of the same trade he stayed at their home, and they worked, for they were tent makers by trade.

  I think , myself ,and others, appreciate you reminding us of those scriptures who had full time jobs all of our lives.

  And still slaved for the Borg while we were in.

  I tend to agree with posters who suspect TxNVSue2023 is a troll , she claims to be a mid 40 year old who was in da troof for 20 years and then asks stupid questions about the religion .

  Just look up her previous posts these past couple of days.

  With all due respect maybe sue is not all that bright or just cherry picks what advice she will take notice of in these posts.

  There are plenty of warnings about getting involved with the JW/WT religion and that she should do more research into their background which she seems to ignore.

  Maybe she just likes to get her ears tickled with fantasies.

  Apparently she doesn`t want facts to get in the way of her delusions about JW`s being the true religion.

  What say you sue ? Be as forthright and blunt as you like sue I`m mature enough to take it !

  i didn't know what category to put this under, but would appreciate thoughts.

  we know if you are df or dissasociate yourself, an anouncement is made at the local kh.

  And if that is the reason why they are not taking your calls anymore ,which sounds like it ,they are not friends worth having and your better off without them IMO.

  Welcome sue

  ,Before you commit yourself to any thought of re-instatement you need to realise that the JW religion is no more than an American man made religion that was thought up by a man who had no theology training whatsoever late 1800`s early 1900`s.

  And is just a cult religion ,do yourself a favour and learn more about their background and continual failed prophecy`s they have made in their brief history.

  I too was a convert and should have had someone tell me that when I was twenty years old and didn`t wake up till 37 years later . Don`t make the same mistake many of us made in the past and waste the rest of your life serving men and not GOD .

  Take care smiddy3

  Why do JW apostates tend to be activists against the religion?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  j. arden writes.

  first of all an apostate is literally just someone who left.

  most jws are technically apostates from the religions they were raised in.
