Why the name change from Watchtower Bible College of Gilead to Watchtower Bible School of Gilead?
by was a new boy indid too many jehovah's witness kids get curious about wanting to go to a real college?.
they really don't give an explanation, it's like old light and new light, one reads the new light, and .
in the spirit of loyalty, the subject gets dropped, and there's no more talk about the old name again.. .

Yes, I can quite agree that there must be many more creepy elder stories.
Reminded me that some years ago a sister I have been lifelong friends with confided in me that an elder I thought was a good guy was actually quite a creep.
He visited her when she was ill and when he knew her husband was at work.After some chit chat he then started stroking her hand and said if there was anything he could do for her spiritually,or physically he would oblige.
She told him to leave immediately.
Within a couple of years he ran off with another sister in the hall he was 'shepherding' through difficulties in her life..

I have some questions about the Org.!
by KerryKing inare any or all of the gb from jewish descent?.
why are they so fascinated with following ancient jewish 'principles' ?.
isa 43:10, 44:8 ' you are my witnesses ' which they based their religious identity on, jehovah's witnesses, yet those verses address the jews, not christians, which they profess to be.. jesus said in ac 1:8 'you will be witnesses of me ', .

.. but the more I read the Bible, and communicate on this forum and on Beroean Pickets, the stronger the feeling is growing that there is something very different about the current JW religion, it seems quite sinister..
Good observations - I agree!

Yes, he is one arrogant, condescending bastard. If survivors want to line up behind him after knowing his FULL backstory good luck to them!

Many thanks for all the answers.
I seem to have a distant memory of letters from the branch to people who asked perplexing problems being told to 'Wait On Jehovah'..not sure when they first started replying with that phrase though?

Hi Sue,
Many thanks for your very honest post.
I won't use this post to criticise anything about being reinstated or going back to the meetings.
When I felt really low when attending meetings I used to do a few very simple things that seemed to help.
When entering the kingdom hall I tried to give the warmest welcome ever to the first three people I encountered.
Then, in the hall seek out the older widows, and go and say a friendly hello and ask them how their week has been.
Do this for a month or two and then you will then bump into people in the hall you have been friendly with and invariably some will become friendly to you and things seem to start getting easier.
Ask who is ill or long term sick in the hall. Visit them, Ask them how they are coping - listen to them.
When you get to know them better, maybe give them a call on the telephone to have a chat with them.
These are just the things that have helped me. I appreciate they may not be for you.
Although I have been brought up in the truth and now long faded, in the past I have returned to a new hall after being disfellowshipped and also moved to two other new halls both with family and totally on my own, so I know how hard it can be.
Also, there was a wt/awake article that suggested getting professional/medical help advice when you feel as you do.
Just can't remember the year/reference sorry -
Hope something here helps - if not post here again and keep in touch.
Best Wishes
Ron
