  DISSOCIATION - Based on Covid 19

  dear friends,.

  i think you all know me as a person who has always strived, despite my imperfections to only ever wanting to be and remain in the “truth”.

  it is in fact what i so desperately want for my son ashton and my baby girl honey bee, to be lovers of truth and grow up to be a loyal servants of jehovah god and his son, jesus christ.

  Thanks for your response Gavin. This stance by the GB to push and promote Covid vaccinations really baffles me. I mean why would they do this when we know that these experimental jabs did nothing in so far as protecting people from transmission and improving their health? In fact we now know that millions world wide have prematurely died or been maimed by these dangerous drugs and yet they were fully sanctioned by the GB.

  Even the Amish folk were way far smarter and rejected the vaccines, refused to wear masks and went about their normal daily activities while the rest of America was turned upside down. The result 30X less deaths! I never complied to being jabbed but relied more on natural immunity and good diet and adequate intake of Vitamin C, Zinc and Vitamin D. The GB went too far in my opinion in their handling of Covid.

  What`s the reason some of you think JW`s are in decline ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  from what i can see no such thing is happening.i became a jw in 1960 and remained for about 30 years and the numbers of active jw`s today in the world are far greater than they were back then.. and here in australia the numbers are much higher than they were back then .. so i don`t see that their in decline or have any worries about losing support .. don`t the numbers speak for themselves ?.

  is it just wishful thinking on your part ?.

  No doubt about the fact that the Devil has total control over this world and yes we are on the brink of the Big Event. Sure the GB make mistakes because they are only human and should not be looked up to as some elite superior group with all the correct answers.

  God though is in complete control and will deliver those who trust and believe that he is a God that cannot lie! JW’s do have the truth as evidenced by their love and unity and indeed their loyalty. I don’t know of any other Christian group that meets these high standards and remains seperate from this Satanic World.

  Advice to reduce hours earn less and spend more time on the ministry

  by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

  the advice to reduce work and earn less to spend more time preaching has not aged well.. the cost of living crisis means many have more going out on necessities than they have coming in.. so many asked their employer to reduce their hours and refused promotion only to see their colleagues go up the ladder when they stayed lowly position with rubbish jobs thinking the end will be here soon.

  next week midweek meeting is all about preparing for an economic crisis.. they say have a go bag and new advice for all jws to store food and water at home and grow a vegetable garden, i kid you not.

  this is the new direction..

  Yes it has become very difficult for some witnesses to even survive week to week.

  We have rising living costs here in Australia and more people are becoming homeless. Children are going without good nutrition and so are adults. Things just keep getting worse. Can be very tiresome to have to deal with these issues every day and still we await the GT. Hope you are all coping as best you can. I do find that when things do get tight then something always comes along to help me through. It’s good to be positive despite the worsening conditions and also helpful to have family and friends.

  New Convention Song “ It Will Not Be Late”

  by BluesBrother in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this made me chuckle.

  a new song that they are encouraged to practice for the convention.. “ we know your day will come, sure as the rising sun.

  no matter how long it takes , it will not be late” …………... it is based on habakkuk 2 , we discussed this in depth around 1973/1974.

  50 years overdue you say! Well from a human stand point that is true, but Gods workings and purpose is way above our reasoning and understanding. God cannot lie, hence the day will come when the Great Tribulation will begin. You can ridicule and question this topic all you like. However dramatic events must take place in the not too distant future for wickedness to end and a righteous new start to get underway.

  Not point in being dead forever! Instead living forever in paradise is far far better.

  Jesus promise to the robber executed alongside him will be fulfilled, it’s totally guaranteed.

  Millions of people who got the experimental shots have ended up with serious side effects such as blood clots, tremors, neurological disorders, strokes and very serious heart issues. Many young people in prior good health have suddenly dropped dead.

  Its an epidemic of ill health that has proceeded these vaccines. Yet what bothers me is that certain members of the GB promoted these vaccines and told us to go and get jabbed. Telling the congregations we prayed about what was the best thing to do.

  And now millions throughout the world are deeply regretting that they succumbed to such advice. Despite saying that it was a personal choice yet boasting that 99% of Beth elites got vaxxed. This is turning out to be a mess for all sorts of reasons.

  Why you ask? Amazing that such a question is still even asked when the answer has been available for decades.

  An epidemic of illness and disease in these last days. In Australia the health system is in crisis, too many sick people and less funding and resources to deal with the problem. So much junk food being consumed as well as a dependency for some on drugs and alcohol to manage their lives. Polluted air,water and environment in general adds to the difficulties in maintaining one’s health. I long for the new world where we can enjoy the real life!

  A Rare Response to being Disfellowshipped

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  to most, being disfellowshiped is a terrible loss of friends family and god's perceived approval.

  but not to mark jones.

  in his words..... the best way i can describe it, is like when you leave highschool for the last time.

  Enjoying birthdays and celebrating some ancient Roman festival is chosen above living forever in peace and perfect health in a world where we can enjoy the real life.

  Thats some stupid choice, but by all means go for it!
