the truth that gives you eternal life was published on watchtower presses, and is not to be confused with the truth that leads to eternal life published by the watchtowerbible and tract society.

If a JW becomes inactive is he then labeled as an apostate?

by Pallbearer in

i have heard a rumor that if a jw becomes inactive he or she is considered to be an apostate.

is this true?

has anyone here on this forum had such an experience?

Clarkey

To be viewed as an apostate for merely becoming inactive seems quite unreasonable to me, which gives me the feeling that the rumor is untrue.

That would be correct, its only if you say something opposed to the organization, the governing leaders or specific doctrines, you are then labeled an apostate, but if you just go inactive your labeled spiritually weak.

today is my 51st anniversary.

of going to prison.. i was 20 years old.

i stood before district judge leo brewster and made a plea of "guilty".

Clarkey

Terry's story is one of what happens when men take it upon themselves to play with the power of god, who eventually end up playing with people's lives, many times unsuspecting harm is the result.

Why people put their faith and trust toward lying corrupt religious charlatans, god only knows, well maybe he doesn't .

Is Watchtower meant to be an actual shelter from reality

by ToyFish in

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yciaw0m2-nqi'm a former member that has been out for the past few months and have been doing a lot of personal research.

i've been having mixed feelings about the gb whether or not their intentions are good or not.

the fact they have a protocol of moral lying through "theocratic warfare" very much turned me off from having anything to do with the org.

Clarkey

You could say the WTS exploits reality particularly all its perils and troubles to lure people to its literature and promote a reason why mankind has to suffer through these perils and troubles and to offer a sense of sheltered relief .

The reality about this organization is that in its efforts to accomplish this endeavor the organization has not told the truth from a biblical viewpoint or from basic secular knowledge as well..

Prime Minister of Australia announces intention to revoke Jehovah’s Witnesses charity status

by jwleaks in

today, marking the second anniversary of the australian national apology to victims and survivors of institutional child sexual abuse, the prime minister of australia has announce in federal parliament the intention to place sanctions against the jehovah’s witnesses in relation to child sexual abuse.. quote from prime minister:.

the royal commission [into institutional response to child sexual abuse], the [national] apology [to victims and survivors of institutional child sexual abuse] and these yearly reports are about accountability: bringing the truth into the light ... we still have, reprehensibly, four institutions that have been named publicly and that have blatantly refused to join the redress scheme.

they are jehovah's witnesses ... it's not acceptable.

Clarkey

Technically your correct but the JWs is false religion according to its doctrines, so maybe the bible prophecies are spot on.

Makes sense, why should we imposed hatred upon people just because of their inherent biological genetics ?

My Prediction: Trump Wins Big

a month ago it might have been questionable.

not now.

after bader’s death and biden’s inability, this shouldn’t be close.

Clarkey

If all the up to date polls were in favour for the Republicans or close at least , he would win, but they are not.

Sorry Min but your chosen supportive candidate isn't going to win this election.
