  I notice my neighbor receiving return visits, I told her please look up JW on the net. I just flat out told her it's a cult...So if you are forced to go out, tell the folks if you really want to know what we are about check JW child abuse and I will come back next week and we can discuss it....Make sure you bring a pioneer sister or brother with you on your RV....

  Spiritual paradise or proverbial straitjacket?

  by UnshackleTheChains in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  noas a current or past jehovah's witness, do you / or did you feel part of a spiritual paradise with full liberty in christ as the watchtower society/organisation describes?.

  or do you / did you feel you were wearing a proverbial straitjacket in the sense you feel / felt restricted and controlled by the watchtower society / organisation?.

  Spiritual paradise is only for a selective few, about the same as pyramid scam. GB is in earthly paradise the rest are in straitjackets......

  i was recently at a sunday watchtower, reading one of the novels i have on my ipad to help me get through the dreadfully boring event.

  every once in awhile though i'll glance at the article just in case anyone is peeking at my screen, and in the article, i noticed these paragraphs.. 3. how did exile in babylon differ from the slavery the israelites had experienced in egypt?.

  3 what the prophets had foretold came to pass.

  Deuteronomy 28:30-35 Holy crap.You marry but another man shall lie with her (another man receive blessing), you build your house but another will live in it (who),your ox shall be slaughtered but you shall not eat it (another blessing someone receive), your sons and daughters shall be given to another people (that may be a blessing not sure about that one) and then you will be driven mad because of the sight which your eyes see. You got to love the God of the OT...

  "If I had the power,"in writing each prospective person must go over the rules before becoming a JW, a contract. In the contract they must state what will happen if you leave, blood, the world is evil,past predictions, rules for chid abuse and child sex predators. If a person is made aware of the evil of this organization and they still become a JW, then more power to them...Let the person know, we are not a 100% cult, maybe around 75%.....

  According to Dr. David Lewis-Hodgson of Mindlab international which conducted this research, music produce a greater state of relaxation and this music "weightless" the top song. The music "weightless resulted in a striking 65 percent reduction in in participants overall anxiety, and 35 percent reduction in their usual physiological resting rates. Equally remarkable is the fact the music was actually constructed to do so. The group that created "weightless" Marconi Union did so in collaboration with sound therapists. It carefully arranged hormones, rhythm, and bass lines help slow a listener's heart rate, reduce blood pressure and lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol.Saw this in the news today. On youtube "Weightless" 15 million hits.

  What has been your own personal experience of shunning?

  by UnshackleTheChains in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am interested in finding out on a small scale the extent of which shunning has impacted on you personally.. my own experience is that when i faded about 12 years ago.

  the woman whose house the book study was held at (and who was virtually a neighbour) walked right past me in my own street.

  i remember it so well.

  My J.W brother walked my first born J.W daughter (bride) down the aisle.The marriage didn't work out, they divorced 17 years later.......The shunning divided my family, 30 years of shunning has destroyed our family (none JW family members and JW family members)....

  No such thing as co-rulers, but one will sit on the right and one on his left. Jesus says that he who dies to himself and is a servant to all shall be the one to sit at his left and right.
