  To Any Jehovah's Witness Reading This---Please Think About Getting Out!

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i sympathize with you.

  you may feel there's no where to go.

  you might worry that you could lose all your friends and family.. you might believe it's better than the other religions and you should just "wait" on jehovah/the organization.. you might have doubts but you might feel a spiritual connection.. all i can suggest to you is to please think about your life.

  I'm pretty sure that any JW on this site for more than 10 seconds is already having doubts. It's just a matter of time.

  Jehovah Reveals What “Must Shortly Take Place”

  by aposta-Z in

  w12 6/15 pp.

  14-1810 in the 21st century, britain and the united states have continued their special partnership, often acting together in world affairs.

  the prophecies about the immense image and the wild beast confirm that the anglo-american world power will not be replaced by some future world power.

  When I read "Jehovah Reveals What 'Must Shortly Take Place'" my mind immediately translates it to: "The Governing Body reveals what they want you to do next".

  Unexpected conversation with a long time JW friend (in good standing)

  so tonight after the meeting, this brother whome i've grown up with invited me to eat.

  he had come almost an hour late to the meeting and looked kind of down and a bit depressed.

  i agreed to go eat.. there was very little talking at first.

  That's great. I wish I had friends like you. Every non-blood related JW I know has shunned me since I faded, even though I'm not DF'd.

  One thing I know, and that’s that we mortals have immortal spirits that not only survive death, but may have existed before we came to this earth. These things Jehovah’s Witnesses can’t answer.

  I agree. Not only can't they answer them, they won't even discuss them.

  I find any written explanation of biblical verses is more or less one man's interpretation. There are literally volumes written about Lazarus and The Rich Man. I really have to ask myself did God or Jesus intend on leaving a text, for common people, that requires volumes (of propaganda) to explain and interpret each paragraph?

  This topic has intrigued me for some time, and ultimately led me to question JW death sleep doctrine. I've read every account of NDE I could find on the internet. And watched every interview of people who've experienced NDEs.
  
  I couldn't reconcile JW doctrine with some of the scriptures. Especially Luke where Jesus describes Lazarus and the Rich Man. Could it be any clearer than that?
  
  I'm convinced that when you die one of these things will happen:

  1. You are taken somewhere dark but given a chance to repent, if Jesus allows it.
  2. You are taken somewhere good by angels of Jesus.
  3. You are taken somewhere evil by demons.
  4. Your soul sleeps until Jesus arrives.

  When I was a teenager I had the embarrassing and uncontrollable problem of my male member standing to attention. It happened a few times at the door. The most embarrassing time was when a female householder looked at the bulge in my pants, then looked at me with an expression of "you pervert".

  I wonder how many JWs died in Malawi because the GB told not to purchase an inexpensive political party card.

  How amazing would it be if he came to an apostate's door. Id love to rip him up. As a born in I rarely liked the converts. They loved to tell me how they got to have sex and drink, while telling me to never do it.

  I remember one "convert" was always telling stories about sex, women, fast motorbikes and wild holidays. Then he'd end his narrative with something like "but of course, that was all in the past", with a sorry tone like he missed that life.

  Not many born-ins liked him (i.e. jealous).
