  by Phizzy in

  2. experiences

  terri o'sullivan was interviewed by croydon radio for a programme called "leap of faith", it was broadcast on sunday.. she does a great job of showing how wacky and weird the jw beliefs and practices are, the interviewer asks perceptive questions, either he was well briefed by terri or he is an ex jw !.

  she also gives info.

  on her meetup group for xjw's, great fun !.

  most of us are desperately waiting for the availability of a legal crisis of conscience.

  deborah dykstra provided us with two updates.

  on december 12, 2015 there was a clear statement about the copyright which stopped all illegal activity in spreading electronic versions & prints.. finally, she promised a new update by or before may 6.. so far no new update.

  and they start delivering their message of judgment?

  what do you think will happen when they start knocking on doors and telling people that their families will be killed in armageddon because they did not believed in jehovah.

  i'm curious how people will react.

  Sparky1 who is the GB member first on the top left in the grey 3 piece suit in that pic? I'm guessing Jaracz, but a complete lookylikey of the great British comedian Vic Reeves!

  the non anointed members of the subsidiary corporations really took over the day to day running of the Borg like they had been for a number of years when the elder anointed members of the GB all died off,the bumbling buffoons of the GB in name hold no power at all and are mere figure heads of who really controls the WTS. The non anointed WTS president Don Adams was installed when anointed WTS president and GB member Milton Henschal died in 2000.

  Low Day For Me Today

  hi guys.

  it's been about 4 or 5 weeks since i was disfellowshipped.

  so far it's been easy, i enjoyed being left alone, no one bothering me, no one telling me i need to do more, need to reach out, questioning why i didnt go on the ministry, and the fact that my ex-wifes family cant talk to me even if they wanted to.

  WTF did you go through all the aggravation and hassle of being DF'ed and sitting on a JC surely you must have known what was going to happen? was you reported? did you admit to sin? I know hindsight is a wonderful thing but whatever you were doing why didn't you just lead a double life or just desist in whatever activity you was engaging in no one would have ever known? as Just Fine writes you are playing right into their stupid childish idiotic games and have fallen into it hook line and sinker, move on with your life and forget about them, they are toxic vile and evil and I sense only more hurt and pain in your attempts to get reinstated which could take years.

  Do JWs believe they will be the only people saved at the "end"?

  by LaurenM in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the answer posted on jw.org: "no.

  many millions who lived in centuries past and who weren’t jehovah’s witnesses will have an opportunity for salvation.

  additionally, many now living may yet begin to serve god, and they too will gain salvation.

  "they don't have a secret elder's book" so said my mother.

  "all of our publications are open to everyone.

  we all have the same information and nothing is hidden in this religion.".

  isnt it astounding that you can show them hard evidence of the "elders handbook" the UN membership letter the ARC, the "Bethel Branch handbook" "Shinning as Illuminators ,and immediately they will say its all the work of those evil apostates. I remember some years back very shortly before my fade and I was sitting in the KH during one particularly mind numbing service meeting and the talk seemed to be about Judge Rotherfraud, we had one loud mouthed shit didn't stink,intellectually superior elderly sister and she stuck up her hand and went on and on about the judge and how opposers labelled him "the judge" etc and how the opposers did this and that blah blah blah, stupid deluded old woman, so after the meeting I went to the library picked up a random book from his era opened the inside page and there was is was "written by Judge Rutherford.

  Finding love as a witness

  by RawrSaysTheLion in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  hi i'm new.. i'm going on 2yrs as a baptized witness although i've just received a reproval on the grounds of living with a wordly man unmarried for 6 months.

  long story short it ended messy and i ran straight back to the witnesses because i do love jehovah and i missed my family.

  my issues were only with the actual organization.. i desperately want to find someone to share my world with but i feel like i'm too tainted to be loved by anyone worthy in the truth and my morals are to high to love another boy from the world.
