Did you have any favourite Biblical verses as JWs or after leaving? For me it was: "everyone believing in me will have eternal life" as spoken by Jesus.

"22 But you have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable multitudes of angels, 23 to the general assembly and assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect" Hebrews 12: 22,23: A very powerful image. That is the essence of the Christian objective a destination in heaven, and nowhere is there an earthly destination mentioned.

Matthew 10:37: He that has greater affection for father or mother than for me is not worthy of me; and he that has greater affection for son or daughter than for me is not worthy of me.
This is the scripture used to show me why my family must shun me because that's what Jehovah wants. So of course I feel a great fondness for it. It's helped me to see the light and how loving Jehovah is.

I used to quote "The rod of discipline" Proverb to my little brother when he got in trouble at the meeting. He was gonna get it when we got home so I'd poke at 'em with that one.
Although, it wasn't funny when I got in trouble.

Since I have been out forever, I don't remember the actual scripture...but it's the one about the man tying his ass to a tree. Always made us laugh.
