Splash I was baptised 51 years ago and very few things taught are the same. I have been told you have to be at every meeting to understand all the new lights. As my family member was saying this I think she had doubts as she expressed this thought aloud.

"You knew what the consequences were when YOU decided to leave The Truth. This is YOUR decision and the outcome is YOUR responsibility."
by nicolaou inhow many of us have had to deal with a version of that retort?!
it's hurtful and i suspect - for some - that's partly because of the nagging feeling that our families may have a point.. but do they?.
i was 15 when i got baptised, is it reasonable that as the 50 year old man i'll be on my next birthday i continue to be held to a decision i made as a schoolboy?.

Gossip make it known in the congregation they don't want to tarnish Jehovah's name but be prepared for the elders to come after you but you need to shout it wide and far to protect other young ones.

Aunt Connie I don't know you but if youare serious think of your future. How guilty will you feel when you are in your 80s and there has been no Armageddon, no new system, and you weren't there for the end of your dads life and your mom needing your emotional support. I know Jehovah and Jesus must be more loving and forgiving than JWs teach. Examine your heart.

Where In the Bible Does It Say To Hate People Who Leave The Organization? Apostates and the District Convention Theme of Hating Them!
by AuntConnie ini am back from bakersfield and i can say it was the best district convention ever!
the end is coming soon, a few of the annointed were speaking about 2014 possibly being the year that jehovah would destroy all the hateful apostates!
the focus of this convention was not on love or the message of the good news of the kingdom.

Aunt Connie us "Apostates" send you our Love and welcome you on our very own sight. You must have impressed the rednecks in Bakersfield with your fancy dress. Did you manage to go North of the River, if you did I bet they thought they had a movie starr in their midst. If you offerd mags while there did you help hem with all the hard word. Best wishes.

Adamah, in the 50s and 60s I remember sisters introducing themselves as ministers in the d2d work. I remember it being taught that all publishers were ministers. Am I the only one who remembers this.

Our DC is on now and I...
by Julia Orwell in...was just in the yard playing with my cat.
spent ages with my beautiful cat, watching her roll on the lawn and purr.
her fur is unbelievably soft.. we slept in, got up, had a leisurely breakfast knowing we can go at our own pace, tended the chickens, i called my brother; hubby and i did some housework, played with the cat, and we're off to a lunch date down the local pizza place, knowing we won't have any jws pass by and snub us or look askance at hubby's beard because they're all in brisbane.. it feels a bit funny missing something i've been going to since i was 18, but it also feels good.
