Understanding a family member that’s A witness

by understandingjehovah in

i need some advise or understanding.. my brother became jehovah witness because of his wife.

our dad is dying and over the last two months he’s done some very weird stuff.. my family knows he’s not a real witness because he sells corn liquor and pills, drinks daily, let us have our moms birthday at their house.

he’s also committed adultery, it’s rumored that he molested our cousin when he was younger, done fraud to my dying dad, lied about being our dads poa for greed only to find out he’s not, lied to the family about his estranged daughters, called his oldest daughter a b*tch because she doesn’t want anything to do with him, lied on our dads life to her to get her to talk to him, he has the name nympho tattooed on his neck, has slandered his immediate family and abandoned two of his daughters for over 20 years to start a family with his new wife.

the hall was sold to another church.

With all due respect, I have some doubts about this story. If it’s true I can see why watchtower is in the trouble it’s in, when it’s got morons doing dumb shit like this.

Past Watchtower Society Comments On Vaccines

by BluesBrother in

today there is a lot of hope placed in a vaccines to immunise against covid 19 , and relief that they are soon to be available.

that will be shared by the eight million or so jws in this world.

they should be thankful that the wts has moved away from its teaching ,that lasted for decades , proclaiming that vaccination was wrong, and a tool of satan.

joe134cd

Most JWs have little knowledge about the crazy past of WTBTS, little understanding of the orgs. position on blood/blood fractions and no understanding of the detailed doctrinal beliefs (things like Joels

Sadly, I have to agree with this . It wasn’t until I started visiting apostate sites that I began to see JWisim for what it was. At best just another religion. It still astounds me at how little I really knew considering I had been in the religion for decades.

Meetings

by pontoon in

so remember how assembling together is a command and no man or government can stop us, even if it means going 'underground', even if means being arrested, jailed, beat....can't stop us from assembling together----until covid.

now it's "false regligion" fighting for their constitutional right to meet together while the jws seem to be perefectly happy zooming their lives away..

joe134cd

Isn’t it funny how been at the hall was were Jehovah’s spirit was. How been present at the book study would help the connective cohesion with our bros and sis, for the great trib. Heaven forbid don’t ever put any JW material, or worse meet a virtual JW, on the internet. My how times have changed, and the JWs are none the wiser.

Australian jws/branch warned of possible loss of charity status.

hello all interested persons,.

whilst driving to work this morning listening to the radio, my ears pricked when the presenter began talking about jws.

it was on a programme which airs between 8.00 and 8.30 entitled am, and broadcast on the abc national radio.

joe134cd

Yes I have to agree with shepherdess. The redress scheme is just out of the question. It would bankrupt them. Trust me they have weighed the situation up, and it more economically viable to lose their tax free status than to pay out the victims.

73 years old, a Witness for 48 years, an elder for 24 years, Baptized just before 1975. WOKE UP!

by pistolpete in

i thought i would post an encouraging experience i found today.

i've been seeing a lot of 70-80 year old jws waking up, and their children are posting their experience on reddit.

these are old elders, pioneers, circuit overseers who have given their everything and finally at the end of their life, are walking away.. maybe the key to waking up is that a person has to have a deep sense of right and wrong.

joe134cd

I’m really in two minds about this. Will it, in the short term, be liberating in gaining his freedom or will kill him when the realisation sets in that he’s lost everything by been shunned. In the case of my my elderly father it would be an unkindness to wake him up.

how do spouse's treat their partners if they leave the cult?

by mickbobcat in

so i was fortunate enough to have a wife that listened and saw what i was saying was true and that the cult is bs.

but i wonder how bad it is in a relationship that one goes out of the cult and the other stays in.

i can see that being a real issue for a marriage.

joe134cd

In dealing with my father. I sincerely hope he never wakes up. It’s the white elephant in the room that’s never talked about.

One State bucking the Trend-------TEXAS

by pistolpete in

as thanksgiving is just around the corner, just about all the states are implementing total lock-down with high penalties on any citizen who disobeys.

but what is the deal with texas!.

Jehalapeno - I cut and pasted this from a reply I made in another thread. Your an idiot and deserve to live in Texas (even if you reside in another state)

I think basically it began to flourish through people

(a) Having a me first attitude and to Hell with everyone else. If I want to do it I’m going to do it and no one is going to stop me.

(B) People just not listening.

I live in a country where people did listen. The threat was taken seriously with immediate shut down. None compliance was meet with public naming and shaming on national TV, and court appearances. I think the results speak for themselves really. Covid is almost a thing of the past. I’ve kept my job, house prices are booming with very low interest rates, and the local economy is in good shape compared to other western countries. The present government that handled the covid situation, steam rolled the opposition in the elections a few weeks back, and it has been stated that the election was won on the handling of Covid. I don’t think it was a case of the opposition doing badly but rather the present government doing well. I must admit this was a major factor in my voting decision. I think for a relatively small country, of only a couple of million people, we are the envy of the world.

I’m my opinion this “to hell with anyone else attitude” can be seen with gun laws in the USA. Right to bear arms, first amendment, and absolutely no one is going to tell me anything else. Now, like covid, they have got a problem that is almost out of control. https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5657575071678464/walmart-pulling-guns-ammo

Telling indeed.
