Luke 21:8

And he said, "Take heed that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name, saying, 'I am he!' and, 'The time is at hand!' Do not go after them.

You could add the question at the bottom...

"Are you doing this?"

EXCELLENT!

SOME THINGS TO THINK ABOUT:

What is wrong with getting an education?
Is an education a bad thing? Why?
Why are you not supposed to think for yourself, or ask “hard” questions?
Have you heard of the book 1984? You may be living in an “Orwellian World.”
Does the society fear the Internet because the real “truth” can be found there?
If smoking is bad because you are “defiling” your body – what about obesity?
Did you know that the “society” now says “blood fractions” are a conscious matter?
How many needlessly died before this “new light” came to be?
How many families and lives have the Witnesses ruined?
Why so many rules, and the need to spy on your friends?
How old is the “generation” of 1914 getting? (Are any really still alive?)
Remember 1975, and all the other years the Governing Body put forth as “the end?”
Is the governing body inspired? One year they are, the next their not. – They aren’t.
Do you serve God or an organization run by man?
Do some research on the NWT; see how the real meaning was changed on certain things.
What if it’s NOT the “truth?”
If it’s not the truth, are you wasting your life?

And he said, "Take heed that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name, saying, 'I am he!' and, 'The time is at hand!' Do not go after them. Luke 21:8 Are you doing this?" Have you been told, “Your deliverance is at hand?” Or maybe “the end” is so close you could “touch it with your tongue?” How many times have you heard this? – Do the years 1874, 1914, 1915, 1925, 1935, and 1975 come to mind? They should. These are the years when we were told the end would come.

I was a loyal witness for more than 47 years before I came to realize they did not have “the truth.” I hope it does not take you that long. Mine was a wasted life. And a wasted life is a terrible thing.

Hallowed are the Ori

Dedicated to People Seeking Bible Truths

This article is written for the enlightenment of people who are seekers of Bible knowledge and is based on experiences of persons who have at one time or another been involved in such a search. Sadly some of these people have totally lost faith in God and the Bible due to being ensnared by false religion.

(This is dedicated to people who have been hurt by religious cults)

The following are experiences of persons who were formerly involved in the Jehovah’s Witness (JW) religion. Thinking persons can plainly see why Jesus warned against following men. For men have (insert Scripture regarding burdens put on others by men)

These are examples of ‘unwritten’ rules of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society (WBTS). Some are rules expressly forbidden by the WBTS; some are rules that are supposedly a ‘conscience’ matter; some are rules by church elders who have personally decided what may be a ‘stumbling block’ to other Jehovah’s Witnesses, some rules are ones that change from one geographical location to another. People have been shunned, disfellowshipped, or ‘marked’ (marking is when people are not allowed to socialize with anyone who has broken a WBTS rule) for being involved in the following behavior:

Studying the Bible by itself, without using the Watchtower Magazine
Questioning any JW doctrine from a Biblical standpoint
Questioning the many failed prophecies and dates of the WBTS
Questioning decisions made by church elders
Studying older vs. newer publications of the WBTS due to the fact that church doctrine changes every so often, which is called ‘new light’
Making any unfavorable comments in private, about the WBTS
Not attending & preparing for 5 hours of meetings weekly
Not turning in a monthly record of hours spent door-to-door
Speaking to inactive JW family members or friends
Having non-JW friends or marrying a non-JW
Attending weddings/funerals/services that are held in a non-JW church
Accepting whole blood transfusions; partial blood transfusions are ok
Sexual practices and/or positions between a husband and wife
Attending parties; choice of music
Being involved with any activities at the YMCA, even swimming
Participating in school sports or attending Proms
Playing certain games such as chess
Cannot do Karate, wrestling or any related sports
Pursue education further than high school
Be a Notary Public, work at government agencies (requires government oath)
Purchase a political party card in certain countries even if it brings death to one’s family; however bribing officials with money is overlooked in the country of

If your Bible-trained conscience would like more information or if you are just curious about this religion, use the Internet to research Jehovah’s Witnesses. There are many websites designed to enlighten people as to the spiritually and emotionally destructive nature of the Jehovah’s Witness religion. Many people are unaware of the many rules they are expected to live by until after they were baptized into this religion, a rather under-handed tactic.

Ok sorry about that--I am having trouble submitting my posts today. Feel free to use the above info that I have left on public transportation before because I was tired of seeing the JWs doing street work at the bus stops.

Newbie in the house! I'm fired up to find you guys. I haven't thought of this poop for many years. I really feel giddy inside knowing that for the past 24 years I haven't felt guilty, even once, about drinking too much and smoking. Not sure why those were such big sins for me as a kid but I remember them being real doozies. My cousin's wife smoked and slept with some clown, but it seemed that they focused on the smoking more... kooks. One question: is a District Convention the same as an Assembly? I was gonna go to one just to experience the insanity. I don't really want to do anything; simply want to smile when I leave knowing that my kids won't have to endure the crap that I did. Back to the point-at-hand: Justice, I like your most recent post (17-Jul-06 14:27). Tape 'em up! I remember seeing people chanting and disparaging the Truth once @ an Assembly in Dallas. I remember actually realizing that there was a different story out there. I went to find it. I was right. Hopefully some kid will see your info and wake up, sooner rather than later. Keep on rockin' in the free world. p.s. my Worldy [sic] step-dad calls the JDubs, "RoHos." Thought you might find interesting if not just plain funny.

i just wanted to say I think that what you are doing is a great idea! Well done!

If you can get someone reading just enough to get a question smouldering you'll have done a big deal?

Its probably too late to change the format much but I was thinking how about making it even more innocuous and likely to grab attention and base your statements as if they are Episodes of Lost - a popular programme over here - initially someone might think its about season 3 before they twig on.

Welcome aboard Sailor. (You didn't forget to turn to the aft and salute the flag as you came on board did you?) Hey, did you ever see the movie Uncommon Valor? There was a charactor in it by the name of Sailor you might want to check out. LOL.
