I would say that making a million friends is nothing special. What is special is to make a friend who will stand by you when millions are against you. But how to find it???

What is definition of a true friend, once outside the cult?
by suavojr inafter leaving the cult of jw's or waking up to ttatt, it is a struggle to trust people again.
i am personally starting from scratch although i am still in.
each moment i spend with my current jw friends, i know they are all smiles and loving towards me because of my good status with the wt.. outside a cult you still find fake people and it is also a struggle to find true friends and it is even worst when we've been hit hard from people we used to trust and care for.. .

How do you define a true friend?

Describe What a Jehovah's Witness Elder Is Like
by minimus ini know what they are supposed to be like.
but at this point in time, do you think the elders look joyful?
are they serious bible students?

Elders are just like they were back in the late 70's,80's,90's and 2000's
- Elders will pretend to care just so they can get a better seat to watch your struggle.
- Elders say they care about you and are the ones who tear you down when they get the chance.
- They share the secrets of sinners and enjoy the gossip.
- They like to backstab people and promote their holiness.
The nice and humble elders usually get the boot and are not allowed to make any decisions.

Shared some TTATT with my wife and now she wants us to have a weekly personal bible study
by suavojr inhere is the situation.... a young 19 year old in our congo had a fallout with his parents because of all the restrictions and jw dogma and moved out of the house last wednesday.. to make the story short, the parents went running to the elders and what was the comfort?.
coe said: i saw that coming!
your son never reached out to get baptized.. then the other elder said: don't worry, you still have one left that will be saved.

Thank you everyone !!!! I will prepare with the advise given and I will be ready this Sunday not teach my wife, but just guide her and let her come to her own conclusions.
I also wanted to give you guys an update.
My wife's 19 year old son came back to the house but he is standing his ground. (I am happy to hear that) He also stated how he will not dump his new girlfriend, that he is going to find a new job and save some money and move out of the house.
When his mom said that he had to follow rules and if he did not change, their relationship was going to change in a drastic way. Her son bravely stated that he understood how her religion makes her act this way and that he is not going to allow the elders to pick on him
It was also impressive that during the conversation his mom told my wife her son was calm and not disrespectful or rebellious .
I wish I had this same attitude when I was 19. Now I want to find out if he knows TTATT
Now BTW, my wife is a hard cookie to crack but I have to take it slow in order to avoid getting turned into the elders at this point. I am still preparing myself financially and I want my family to have a better foundation once I leave.

I NEVER Hear A JW Talk About Never Dying & Living Forever In Paradise Anymore!
by minimus ini was raised with this belief, that we would never die and actually make it into the "new system".
mu faithful jw aunt still talked about my mother (her sister) and her walking together into the great tribulation--- and never die at all!
she spoke of that 2 days before she passed away.. i believe most witnesses expect to die and then get resurrected.

Funny how people who truly believe in Christ are not afraid of dying. Among the old timers within the JW's have to accept the fact that religion is a snare a racket. Someday if we live long enough will see everyone die, one by one and then is our turn.

Finally free of JWs!
by Julia Orwell inwe moved house and no active jw knows we live there.
it's in another congregation territory too so when they finally come knocking, they won't know i'm a dirty apostate when i tell them to put me on the do not call list.
problem is, the local discount supermarket across the highway is frequented by jws from my previous previous congregation!.

Newcomers to TTATT: Beware of "New Study Mode"!
by Londo111 inweve all heard it.
a person starts studying with jehovahs witnesses and love what they are learning so much that they cant stop talking about it.
bubbling with enthusiasm, they spill everything they are learning with their friends and family...or anybody who will listen.
-
suavojr
Thanks Londo for this post! That is why we need to take it slow, we cannot think our loved ones will not turn us in because they love us. We can't forget that at some point we would have done the same thing.

Jesus Protect Me From Your Followers
by suavojr ini am getting tired of all the so called jesus followers that simply want me dead .
w89 9/1 19 remaining organized for survival into the millennium.
"7 only jehovahs witnesses, those of the anointed remnant and the "great crowd," as a united organization under the protection of the supreme organizer, have any scriptural hope of surviving the impending end of this doomed system dominated by satan the devil.".
