for some reason I thought only a handful of the remnant would even be alive today, what is the GB going to do when there is no more GB to run the show?

HEY EVERYBODY 'This my very first post and I've gotta say that it appears that most everyone seems to have a sense of humor. a sense of humor can help a person to keep from going crazy. Being d f did indeed drive me off the deep end and I nearly drowned while wallowing in self-pity even had a few thoughts of ways to do myself in.I think if THIS WERE A religion it would be one that would help people heal in a spiritual sense, helping to insure hurting ones that CHRIST gave his life so that when people make mistakes they can be forgiven that it is HE and HE alone that either forgives us or speaks to the FATHER in or behalf. Needless to say we never want to forget the relationship we desire with Jehovah but we have to always remember also that no man ,or group of men, nor any organization , can do that for us, only JESUS CHRIST. If this were a religion i think thats what it would be a lot about . Thanks for your comments and honesty,I was d f in 1985 and have grown kids that have been told that if they want to continue to stay in good standing ,that they have to stay away from me. that will never stop gettin to me . Allen, ,,,,, AKA BUGGGER

Being new myself it took a while to realize that this was not a wtb&ts sanctioned place to be . Being disfellowshipped in 1985 I have personally gone through the rolller coaster of emotions watching my kids grow up , convinced that their dad was an apostate and that isn't true. Personally there is a deep love for Jehovah and his son Jesus but this relationship with Jehovah is not ever going to be based on what the society thinks about me. It does have everything to do with accepting whatever future plans Almighty God has for me and everyone else because of God's grace and a faith in that grace. I don't believe to be better than Isiah who when speaking of himself said that his best was likened to filthy rags.Real acceptance from Jehovah comes through Jesus ,his forgiveness and grace in our behalf.I also find that in the society there is very little forgiveness unless it's directed towards some unknown or greater purpose. A friend of mine used to one of the big three who decided whether or not a person was sorry enough to be put on probation or get canned only to find himself on the outside and looking in. But I am happy to say for him that at least his kids haven't disowned him . Thats all for now but there is something about the society and the United Nations, thats to all, allen================================= ,aka bugger
