Balancing the Mix of Healthy Spiritual Teachings and Questionable Doctrines as JW

by ProfCNJ in

if you are a current or active jw, you cannot help but feel you are in a bind.

while you have discovered the truth about the truth and has continuously researched on it, you cannot help also but to regard the fellowship inside, add perhaps those encouraging teachings which build up faith and spirituality.. the reality is you cannot just turn a blind eye on the goodness in the organization too or shall we say some of its members who are also standing by you.

somehow, you felt the fds food is helping you in a spiritual sense.

Come to think of it even disfellowshipped people are 'related to you in the faith'. So you must love them too, if not more so.

The good that they do?

Please tell me about this 'good' as I'm struggling to find any. Jesus gave the command to feed and clothe and take care of the poor. I have never seen a witness feed or clothe any poor person that was not in their own congregation and maybe related by blood.

They have taken the phrase 'especially to those related to you in the faith' and replaced it with 'only those in your click in your own narrow and very specific faith that attends your own meeting hall and is considered by the local BOE to be in 'good standing''.

The WT organisation with it's billions has never once opened a shelter for the homeless and destitute, no food banks for the hungry, not a thing for single struggling mothers or abused women and orphans, no free medical centres for the sick, diseased and dying. No academies, colleges or institutes to educate people. Things practically every major and minor religion on earth has done in some form or other.

But never the Orgites..

They have never given a single cent to any charity ever anywhere. You will not even get a free sandwich at any 3 day assembly.

Nothing.. Zero.. zilch.. nada.

They have taken some of the most important words of Christ and nullified them.

On waking up.. don't forget to apply this Bible principal too.

2 Corinthians 6:17

Therefore, "Come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you."

I do not know these people but 60 years is an incredible time to be with someone. The sadness and feelings of and pain and loss must be indescribable. My heart goes out to this obviously very fine gentleman.

What now?

by thedog1 in

i don't know if it has been a good thing or a bad thing to have found this site.

i stumbled on it about a year ago as i mentioned in previous posts.

it has opened my eyes to so many things, but right now all is confusion.

That is indeed one incredible list Focus and I have come across and been through it via other sources but very useful to have it all on once place as you have made it. It's the things in this list that contributed to my breaking free. In fact there was no breaking free.. the mental shackles just fell off like paper chains.

Thank you for sharing. I go back to it occasionally whenever my fickle human mind starts wandering.

Sometimes the best thing we can do is just let go and move forward, whatever it may be that you need to let go of..people, thoughts, ideas, belief systems and more..
