We have heard that it was announced this past Sunday that everyone needs to be at the meeting this week for a letter to be read. Has anyone else heard this? Or have any ideas about what it is about?

HI Impala, WELCOME! Mike & I were raised JW's and year before last, we discovered that we had been lied to our entire lives. It was very traumatic for us. So we started asking an elder in our cong. some innocent questions and because of that and showing Mike's Non-JW brother some subliminal images in the WT literature, then Mike's brother showing their mom, we were immediately turned in to the Elders as 'Apostates' and disfellowshipped. Our JW family refuses to talk to us, has called all of our friends and family telling them we are apostates.

Here are a few things that come from the 'Bible Teach' book.

Something that seems to be working quite well with studies in that book is in Chap 8, when they start explaining the 144,000..... We use Rev 7:4-8 -JW's believe that these 12 tribes listed here are the 'SYMBOLIC or figurative Spiritual Jews [144,000] So then we ask them, "If these 12 tribes are supposed to be symbolic then how can you get a literal number of 144,000 out of it?" They can try to explain, but they cannot.
Another one, on page 183 pp 24:
"Remember, too, that you have made a dedication to Jehovah God himself, not to a work, a cause, other humans, or an organization. Your dedication and baptism are the beginning of a very close friendship with God—an intimate relationship with him."
But yet the 2nd question they ask you right before you go to be baptized is this:
"Do you understand that your dedication and baptism identify you as one of Jehovah's Witnesses in association with God's spirit-directed organization?"
Here is another one from that book [ page 59 picture] They had to change that picture:
Can you find the "Smokeless candle?{ JW.org }
Sequel to Evie's 'Smokeless Candle' video [jw.org]

Hope this helps....we also have a Youtube channel that has quite a bit of info on JW's:

I have heard thru the grapevine that several ex-JW's will be attending the court hearing to support the victims and that this may be bigger than the news is reporting but our firends are unable to give us details because it might jeopardize the case.
