  active and happy jw

  i am an active jw and was raised as one.

  i have been watching the site for a while and thought it could benefit from the opinions of someone who is happily a member of the jw's.

  i will not get into any argumets that lead to nothing except name calling, and will not talk with anyone who is just plain mean (plenty of them in here).

  The real reason 99.9% of JWs stick with it despite the corruption, hypocrosy, etc. They are afraid of death.

  
  Maybe this is what you were afraid of, but to say 99.9%, speaking for 6 million publishers is really outrageous. I'm sure some are afraid of death, but most Witnesses love Jehovah and serve him out of love. We appreciate the ransom sacrifice that Jehovah gave through his son, Jesus.

  YoYo just demonstrates his typical JW selfishness here, 'concentrating on his own salvation'.

  O.K., so I shouldn't concentrate on my salvation and that of my family? That doesn't sound right or maybe you just didn't think before posting that comment.

  Dim: I love the elders in my congregation and I appreciate their effort to help me through my illness. Why would you want me to argue with them over little things? Should I test their love? No, I am sure of their love and their genuine help. The UN thing is really no big deal. I'm sure Jehovah will give the correct guidance regarding it. Meanwhile I am concentrating in my own salvation.

  Scumgrief: I am also a happy JW. I am in a congregation that is very loving. Our body of elders are awesome and very loving. A few weeks ago I had a case of depression over my health and each one of them came to visit me on a different day. It was very comforting. I realize that they also have full days with work, their own families, the congregation, their own health etc. Oh there is always little problems in the congrations, but what is expected with the constant attacks from Satan and his forces. I always try to stick with Jehovah and don't expect from the brothers more that what Jehovah expects.

  I have a question. Did you know the two elders that tried to visit you? How do you know they were there to harass you? Are you not assuming bad motives when you did not even give those two guys a chance to speak? You know, not everything is a conspiracy and not all elders and witnesses out to get you. I believe you are a bit paranoid. Calm down dude.

  A.H. Macmillan wrote "Faith on the march" in 1950's about his life story. It includes conversations and things he saw during Russell and Rutherfords lives. I enjoyed it.

  Joel: I don't agree with you on that one. I am a JW and I have very meaningful life. I keep busy and concentrated in the work Jehovah has given me. But if that's how you feel and go ahead and enjoy life for now.

  Cassiline: You are right on that one, but the feelings are still there and I can't explain it.

  ballistic: that's a good point.
