Bravo to Nicole for not turning away from truth when it was revealed to her! I hope her story gives courage to JWs who are questioning.
God is good 😊 thanks for listening to my testimony
Jesus Christ is the door, JWs always avoid talking about Jesus or they detour in conversations.
You must be Born Again receive the indwelling Holy Spirit in order to get into The Millennial Reign, the kingdom of God.
John 3:3;6-7🕊️
“Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
“Flesh is born of flesh, but spirit is born of the Spirit. Do not be amazed that I said, ‘You must be born again.’”
John 11:25-26 🚪
“Martha replied, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Me will live, even though he dies. And everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die”
This is a very wise woman, congrats on leaving
So moving! Her awakening is very similar to mine. I woke up October 2017.
I had the psychosis happen to me too which eventually I realized this was a spiritual battle. I had night terrors after I started seeing the darkness of this religion . I was shocked when I heard about the spirit channeling and automatic writing that they do in bethel.
Satan was trying to get her to commit suicide so she will not come to Jesus.
They believe in working for their salvation because of James 5:10. They don’t read context just cherry picks.
God reveals Himself to those who humbly seek Him.
Thank you for sharing ! God bless this lady. ❤
Wow you went through the psychosis as well? Thank you for sharing as well as listening. I had no clue it was a spiritual attack. What happened if you don't mind me asking?
❤ watching now I'm so excited for this series I look forward to it every time a new video comes out thank you so much!
I have a similar situation happen too. I too was raised a JW. And went to a similar journey analyzing everything the organization teaches.
Great testimony. Nicole should go into various churches and share her testimony of being a JW and how the Holy Spirit taught her the truths of God’s word. Thanks for sharing. 🌹
Amen and God Bless you Nicole for sharing your story. Jesus is Lord.
Its great to hear the variety of experience's, keep it up!
Man I love these. Thanks!
Love this story!
I remember talking to a JW in the park that was perfectly content for "Christendom" to go to hell. I almost broke into tears after that. It was so sad and infuriating.
Don't JWs not believe in hell? That guy seems odd for a jw
@@prettyboishah2898 Hell simply means "The common grave of mankind". The Witness in question was probably referring to the fact that Christendom's days are numbered. Both the institution(s) AND it's adherents.

No.
Hell/Hades is the abode of the dead.
Here, when Lucifer is cast in...
Hell from beneath is excited about you,
To meet you at your coming;
It stirs up the dead for you,
All the Chief ones of the earth;
It has raised up from their thrones.
All the kings of the nations.
They all shall speak and say to you:
'Have you also become as weak as we?
Have you become like us?
Your pomp is brought down to Sheol,
And the sound of your stringed instruments;
The maggot is spread under you,
And worms cover you.
How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!
How you are cut down to the ground,
You who weakened the nations!
For you have said in your heart:
'I will ascend into heaven,
I will exalt my throne above the stars of God;
I will also sit on the mount of the congregation
On the farthest sides of the north;
I will ascend
above the heights of the clouds,
I will be like the Most High.'
Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol,
To the lowest depths of the pit.
"Those who see you will gaze at you,
And consider you, saying:
"Is this the man who made the earth tremble,
Who shook kingdoms,
Who made the world a wilderness
And destroyed its cities,
Who did not open the house of his prisoners?'
Not a "common grave"...
"All the kings of the nations,
All of them sleep in glory,
Everyone in his own house;
But you are cast out of your grave
Like an abominable branch,.."
Is.14:9-19
Interesting conversations and observations they were having in "the grave."
Beautiful!! God bless you both!!🙏🏽
Here’s a fast, simple, easy way to prove even in the NWT that Jesus is Jehovah:
Matthew 27:9 says the following was fulfilled because of what happened to Jesus:
“Then **JEHOVAH** **SAID** to me, “Throw it to the potter, the magnificent value with which they valued **ME** .”
So I took the thirty shekels of silver and threw them to the potter in the house of the Lord.”
Zechariah 11:13
NOTICE THAT JEHOVAH SAID “ME” !!!
That’s Jehovah saying they valued **ME** as 30 pieces of silver.
That’s Jehovah Himself saying He is Jesus.
“Then one of the twelve, whose name was Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests and said, “What will you give me if I deliver him over to you?” And they paid him thirty pieces of silver.”
Matthew 26:14-15
That’s them valuing Jesus at 30 pieces of silver.
“And he [Judas] threw the pieces of silver into the temple sanctuary and left; and he went away and hanged himself. The chief priests took the pieces of silver and … bought the Potter’s Field as a burial place for strangers.
Then that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled: “And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of the One whose price had been set by the sons of Israel; and they gave them for the Potter’s Field, just as the Lord directed me.””
Matthew 27:5-7, 9-10
That says the prophecy that says they valued JEHOVAH at 30 pieces of silver is about JESUS being valued at 30 pieces of silver.
That means JESUS IS JEHOVAH.
-
Additional explanation:
Why would Matthew appear to attribute the prophecy of the 30 pieces of silver to Jeremiah instead of Zechariah?
The most likely answer is found in the structure of the Hebrew Bible. The Hebrew Bible is divided into three sections called the Law, Writings, and Prophets. Jesus refers to these divisions in Luke 24:44. The collection of the Prophets began with the book of Jeremiah. The scrolls were sometimes referred to by the name of the first book, which in the case of the Prophets would be Jeremiah. So, when Matthew says that “Jeremiah says,” he means that the prophecy was found in the “Jeremiah Scroll.”
WHO IS OVER ALL? Ephesians 4:6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. GOD and FATHER is OVER/ABOVE ALL and that "All" includes the SON so they are NOT EQUAL
THE BIBLE teaches that Jesus was MADE As Lord and Christ and as Son (ACTS 2:36, Prov 8, HEB 1:5), CREATED/PRODUCED/INSTALLED (Prov 8) , COME INTO BEING/MADE (Mat 21:42 - egeneto) and GIVEN LIFE by the Father - John 5:26 and it uses TODAY (Heb 1:5), and uses future tenses and is a prophecy in Isa 9:6 (Isa 9:6, - WILL BE) . If you are called MADE AND CREATED AND GIVEN LIFE, and NEVER CALLED in the BIBLE as Creator or Maker , then you are A CREATION. ALL FROM THE BIBLE
From the Lord was this (this is referring to the chief cornerstone who is Jesus) , the word WAS is egeneto (made or came into being) - Matthew 21:42 and the exact Greek word used in John 1:3 - MADE, egeneto (came into being) - JESUS WAS MADE/CAME INTO BEING FROM THE FATHER , yes, Jesus was MADE/CREATED!, See also Acts 2:36, Heb 1:5, 1 john 5
Isa 9:6 the word Prince in the Prince of Peace means PATRON ANGEL also Leader. WHO IS the ONE LEADER that we have? Jesus. Now, that same exact Hebrew word was used for Daniel 12:1 which is used for Michael the Archangel. So are you saying there are MANY LEADERS now?
If GOD is three persons and all are named JEHOVAH, and if you see them in front of you, count one by one, how MANY JEHOVAH do you see? that is THREE JEHOVAH, and Deut 6:4 says JEHOVAH IS ONE JEHOVAH. and THAT IS NOT THREE JEHOVAH
So if you are valued as 30 pieces of silver, then suddenly you become GOD and Jesus too. O my
@@Mr.DC3.1914Dear friend,
May God bless you and your loved ones abundantly!
I only wish you the very best.
You may have had some people be impolite or discourteous to you in the comments, but I assure you I will not be.
You wrote:

You appear to have not read Matthew 27:9.
It’s not my personal opinion - it’s Scripture breathed out by God which explicitly points to that specific prophecy (where Jehovah said they valued “ME” at 30 pieces of silver which were then thrown to the Potter’s Field) and then Scripture states that prophecy is about Jesus.
It’s not my opinion.
Scripture states it as a clear and simple fact.
So you aren’t mocking me. You appear to be mocking Scripture.
@@Mr.DC3.1914Hello again,
This is in response to your use of Deut 6:4.
What you wrote indicates you don’t understand the Hebrew.
May I explain?
Will you give me the chance?
““Here, Israel! The Lord is our God, the Lord is ONE!”
Deuteronomy 6:4
The Hebrew word for “one” in this verse is “echad”.
“Echad” DOESN’T mean singularity .
There is a different Hebrew word for that: “ahat”.
Echad = unified
Ahat = one single
If you look at the following verse from Genesis you will see both Hebrew words used:
Genesis 11:6
“And the Lord said, "Behold, they are one (Echad) people, and they have all one (ahat) language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them.”
--
Here are other verses where “echad” is used and you can clearly see in context it does NOT mean one single - but means “unified”.
“God called the light “day,” and the darkness He called “night.” And there was evening and there was morning, ONE day.”
Genesis 1:5
Evening + morning (2 things - and yet Scripture calls them “one/echad day.”
-
“For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become ONE FLESH.”
Genesis 2:24
Adam + wife (2 people and yet Scripture calls them “one/echad flesh.”
-
“He also made fifty clasps of gold, and joined the curtains to one
another with the clasps, so that the tabernacle was ONE.”
Exodus 36:13
God told Moses to join the many pieces of the Tabernacle together so that it would be ONE/echad.”
----
So now - when we read Deuteronomy 6:4 and in Hebrew it says “God is echad” it does NOT have anything to do with what you were saying and doesn’t support your unsupportable argument.
I visited a Kingdom Hall last October. Given how they reacted with your beard, I’m surprised they didn’t give me the stink eye with my cross necklace.
Amen, salvation is personal between God and man, women, not an organization. We all individually will give an account for our own sins.
Hey@@NewCreationInChrist896Just want to remind you that by you being a new creation in Christ your sins have been done away with. Jesus was judged for them on your behalf and His righteousness has been placed on your account. The debt is paid 👍Believers will be judged at the bema seat where we will receive rewards or loss of rewards, depending on what we've done. Even if the works burn up our souls will be saved🙂. God bless
Does Nicole have a RUclips channel?
We celebrate Jesus Christ daily. Christmas is very pagan, they have a little bit of truth to pull you in and to try to keep you, but a little bit of truth is a whole lie. You must pray for truth like Nicole, humbled herself and Christ exalted her-James 4:10.
Romans 14:5-6
“One person regards a certain day above the others, while someone else considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. He who observes a special day does so to the Lord; he who eats does so to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he who abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God. “
You can wear beards now in the Kingdom Hall
