Disfellowshipped for Fornication

by TxNVSue2023 in

hi i want to tell my story and get advice.

i'm a single sister ( in usa) that has been baptized for 20 years.

i came from the world, so did not grow up in the truth and i have no family in the truth -- i am alone.. last year i met a brother & we did have premarital sex while we were dating.

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 !

spreading the word that someone is out

by enoughisenough in

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.

do any of you know if they also contact congreagations you have gone to previously?

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.

In my case I would wear that as a badge of honour, the more people that knew me in the many congs.that I attended the better .

,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.

Ecclesiastes 9:5 -"the dead know nothing at all"

by aqwsed12345 in

the narrator of the book of ecclesiastes had very little knowledge of many things that jesus and his apostles later preached.

the author does not make statements, but only wonders (thinks, observes, often raises questions, and leaves them open).

he looked at the world based on the law of moses and found nothing but vanity, as the earthly reward promised in the law did not always accompany good deeds and earthly punishment for evil deeds.

Jesus made money to meet the need when Peter said they would pay the head tax.

So , Jesus is a counterfeiter? A criminal ?

Interesting.

Are we living in the LAST DAYS?

by Fisherman in

are we living in the prophetic last days that will climax into armageddon?

if this is true then how long should it take?

as jw saw it, wt compared timing to within a generation using 70 ad as a parallel.

Act 2:17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

And when has any of this ever happened ? All we ever get is false prophets who never get anything right.
