You have 2 choices.

If you want to stay

Confront them on the reasons why you are being treated this way, ask if they feel you are responsible for you adult daughters falling away? Tell them you want forgiveness.

If they refuse, ignore the Elders and go to the KH. Ignore their requests and just sit through the meetings in the second row. Keep repeating the to them that you serve Jehovah. Keep going until they call the police (if they actually do this, next you call the local newspapers). Check back here ask for scans for you print and take to the meetings.

If they really want you gone ask for the letter of introduction to be handed to you personally, if they refuse, explain under no uncertain terms that if a hateful slanderous letter is sent to your next KH, you will move back to their KH and attend until your burial.

or

The decision to leave. If this becomes the only sane path consider that many have been forced out before you as results of KH politics. Meditate on the parables in Matthew. Re-read the instructions that Jesus left for his followers. Pray, sob, read JWD for therapy, and begin to piece your spiritual sanity back together. It has been done, many are in the process now, maybe one day I will join them instead "ignoring" the Elders too.

Reminder: By their LOVE you will know them.

God Bless

I have been the subject of BOE hatred.

It does happen.

The Elders are blaming you and your husband for your daughters "spiritual state".

i'm a fader myself.... mentally exhausted from thinking of all the reasons why i've given up the "truth" and then the whole "what if" bs... anyway, welcome me, i'm new.

Howdy and Welcome!

I am an "independent thinker" sitting in my KH seat......

I know where the exits are located but unable to navigate my way beyond the parking lot.....

Sit a spell and spill you guts, it ain't just in your head or a "local" problem..

I know I'm slow, but help me out on this new 144k thing-ie

by dawg in

ok, so the may 1st wt says that elders aren't to question anyone who partakes.

but many of you have posted that they are about to rule change about the 144k... haven't they already changed the dogma if elders can't question... doesn't that mean anyone can partake?

so what changes are going to occur that are more shocking then the generation of 1935 thing and whatnot?.

Here is a thought maybe the 144,000 are actual Jews from the 12 tribes?

Hmmm.....

1935- Was it just a coincidence that Carey Barber (b 1905) was dying and that this issue came the following month after his death(Apr 07). He and Barr (b. 1913) were/are the only remaining GB that were both born before 1914 and adults when the 1935 cut-off was announced.

I was wondering if there are any opinions on how much longer they have until 1914 needs to be addressed/ adjusted? I mean how long is Jesus' gonna be sitting up there and nothing happening down here?

Thanks
