      There should be a contact telephone number for the meeting which is local to you.
      Or there is an interactive Bible study which no personal information needs to be entered if you are more comfortable with that.

    I think this was an excellent interview by our dear brother. Nothing can separate me from the love I have for Jehovah and Jesus, absolutely nothing. I have too much love for people in my heart for people and refuse to entertain any negative comments about the organization. Jehovah saved my life and I will spend my entire life dedicating it to Him. I tell you one thing though, in reading some of the negative comments, you can tell we are deep in the last days. But Jesus said the last days would be like the days of Noah where the flood came and they "took no note". This is very true. We will be ridiculed until Jehovah brings an end to this wicked system, and I'm fine with that. I love Jehovah and Jesus so much.

      To the Elders of Jehovah’s Witnesses:
      You didn’t break me, I may have cracked more than a little along the way but you didn’t break me. You separated me from my family, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and neighbours, but you didn’t break me. You made me disconnect from so many but you didn’t break me. You tried to take away my spirit and my opinions and my self worth but still I didn’t break. You had me questioning my belief in not only God but in the very essence of human nature and yet I didn’t break. I was alone and bereft and poor from working menial part-time jobs and still I didn’t break. You took away my belief in goodness and inspiration for quite some years but I wasn’t broken. Today my mind and soul are intact and in harmony, the discord has been replaced with tranquility. The fear and anxiety are all but forgotten. I am a mother, a wife, a daughter and a sister and hopefully a good friend to many, despite your attempts at taking all that away from me for your own selfish desires for power. I still have hairline fractures amongst my porcelain profile and probably always will but for the most part I am healed and smoothing out the rough edges. I no longer live in fear and dread of your power & authority for you hold nothing over me. Truth can be shouted from the rooftops, not doled out to a few in locked down committee rooms, sequestered and is not for sale. Humanity will prevail despite of you not because of you. Goodness and light will continue to thrive even when your façade is long forgotten. You may have left marks on my psyche but you didn’t steal my hope or faith. My value no longer consists of statistics and fakery and the days of my recruiting others into a “straw house” of deceit is long past. My ties to you are severed and I can now breathe in and out without asking for permission. I will never stop speaking out about your lies but they will no longer be my mainstay. The love, fellowship and purpose that you attempted to rob me of for so long are my roots now. They are strong and healthy. So long, farewell and goodbye.
      I outlived your rules and control. I may be damaged, but you didn’t break me!

For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, 3. having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, 4. betrayers, headstrong, puffed up with pride, lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God, 5. having an appearance of godliness but proving false to its power;b and from these turn away."

They forced the 2 witnesses rule upon children who was molested and raped by members of Java's witnesses.. All the evidence and proof is on this RUclips channel Jake control... The evidence was in Australia rural commission court... Do the right thing to protect the children not watchtower..

    I was a jehovahs witness and when I was i defended them every time someone called them a cult. I know now that they are a cult. Also when someone who is a witness and they get disfellowship from the congregation then nobody will talk to them because they are disfellowship the Bible clearly says that Jesus ate with sinners they asked him why he said he was here to save people that needed to be saved and the witnesses don't follow that when you are disfellowship they let you attend meetings but you have to sit in the back of the kingdom hall and nobody is allowed to talk with you and maybe after a few months the elders of the congregation will call you in and maybe they will reinstate you back in the congregation. You love people back in to the fold you don't shun them. The Bible concerning the prodigal son he left his parents home went away to do things his family wouldn't approve of comes back home and upon seeing his return they celebrated his return by having a big gathering. His father didn't tell him look I'm not sure your intentions are sincere so go out by the tree and hang out there for a few months and if I feel like you have learned your lesson I will let you back in the home. He didn't do that he was so happy his son returned and they had a big celebration of his return. But jehovahs witnesses doesn't follow that scripture they shun you when you get disfellowship so how is that following what the Bible teaches

      Yes so why don't they use the same ideology with regard to child molesters and child sex abusers within the congregation, simply applying the two witness rule because that's convenient to them without thought for other children. Why don't they consider the cleanliness of the congregation and the safety of children?
      If someone is accused of CSA there are many forms of evidence not just eye witnesses, readily available by the authorities.
      Why are child sexual abusers allowed to partake in all levels in the congregation without restraint?

  • @paulaknapp4879
    @paulaknapp4879 3 года назад +4

    LOVE? The leadership of the organization does nothing out of love. It does everything to solidify and protect power and dominance over all. Should the anointed priesthood, the Temple/dwelling of God, answer to men, or to Jesus Christ? (1 Pet 2:5,9; 1 Cor 3:16,17:Eph 2:20-22) The apostles are our example.
    “For am I now trying to persuade people, or God? Or am I striving to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.” Gal 1:10
    Wt 02/8/1 - “What connection is there between appointed elders and the royal priesthood?
    Good question. It isn’t a compatible connection, but an obvious split to determine who, is to be “ambassadors of Christ”. (2 Cor 5:20)
    “18 Representing the royal priesthood are appointed elders, who serve in positions of responsibility in congregations of Jehovah’s people around the earth.”
    Where did this idea come from? Certainly God would not exchange His appointed priesthood for another “priesthood”, not anointed. He never has. (2 Chron 13:9; 23:6,7; Num 18:7; Ezek 44:6-9) This idea comes from men, to usurp the authority of the spiritually "circumcised" priesthood. (Mal 2:7; 1 Pet 2:10; Rom 2:28,29; 1 John 2:20)
    The Wt continues: “Rather than challenge their authority, we truly appreciate our hardworking elders!”
    What happens if this man-made doctrine of authority is challenged by an anointed one? They are disfellowshipped. (John 16:9; Rev 13:1,2,11,12,15) The GB has given the “Gentile” elder body the authority to spiritually “kill” God’s anointed; “brothers and sisters” in Christ. (1 John 3:10-12) No, there is no love in this organization. (Matt 12:34;24:12) There was no love practiced by the Pharisees when they handed Jesus over to be killed by Gentiles. (Matt 5:20) We have a “man of lawlessness” - elder body, acting as priests. (Matt 24:15; Rev 11:1,2) They have ‘set themselves up’ in the Temple of God, ruling and judging His “living stones”. (2 Thess 2:3,4) As this “man of lawlessness”, they are ‘standing where they do not belong’. (Mark 13:14)
    But of course, their appointment cannot be “challenged”. How many rules and regulations in the organization are open to challenge and debate? None.
    Dan 8:11-13; 11:31
    If we perceive this “trampling”, this “disgusting thing” standing in the holy place, God’s Temple, we are to flee from the organization. (Matt 24:15,16; Rev 18:4-8)

      Eloise, some humans have believed they are living in the end times throughout most of history. The only thing they have all had in common is that they have been wrong.
      The Witnesses have issued multiple Armageddon prophecies in Jehovah’s name that have all failed. Deuteronomy 18 verses 19-22 simply and unequivocally rules Jehovah’s Witnesses out as a potential true religion. Jesus said false prophets would come and not to follow them.
      I hope this can bring you some comfort - you do not need to fear the Armageddon they constantly try to scare you into joining them with.

    The real truth is not in religion, the real truth is in the heart , the kindness to your fellow man , the truth is when you drop the ego and the judgement on each other . The Bible is a book that is open for interpretation, and nothing to do with religion . The Bible in which is a incomplete book has had over 800 bad translations over the years.Christianity has removed writings from the Bible. If you want to learn the truth. You need to study many different books not just the Bible to have a different perspective of things .. the first thing the jw tell you is not to study any other information or even read any other books Bc you will default from there program. I know bc I was there for many years as a jw and raised until I had many questions they couldn’t answer. It always felt wrong and I was never truly happy there . Something never felt right . But I don’t judge them nor do I support them . But I Iam truly happy ever since Iam not a part of them or there constant fear that they live in . I only have pity for them Bc they don’t know better. Remember government and religion feeds you in constant fear to have control over its people. There cannot be any truth in that . Follow the ascended masters like Jesus and Buddha and many others that came to teach us the way . There’s an awakening happening . The real God above all gods would not put you through fear but only love an compassion. I hope the best for all of you , no matter what your belief is . There are many people through out the world that are beautiful souls , all the answers have always been inside yourself . The Indian middle eastern religions have been practicing there religions for over 8000 thousand years but the jw have been practicing there’s for 100 years and they have it right? 🤔 the math doesn’t fit . Please do your own research study all books not just the Bible ... good luck ..

      @ambermaem1 3 года назад +8

      @Fazzamania I care because I have respect for life. It’s a gift we should protect when it’s in our power to do so. That goes for ourselves and everyone in the communities we live in. We believe in Jesus Christ, which makes us a Christian faith. But I agree, we do believe differently than most all other Christian denominations. But the number of people in other faiths (Muslims, Jews, Christians, etc.) doesn’t have anything to do with us. We don’t expect that everyone will listen. In fact, quite the opposite. We know most people will not listen. We just do what Jesus taught and that’s all we can do.
      And Jehovah didn’t kill people from Covid. He didn’t cause it to happen. It’s just part of the world we live in. So, we do our best to stay safe but obviously it isn’t going to protect everyone. Jehovah promises to reverse this suffering in the future and that is what we are hoping for and looking forward to.

    • @ambermaem1
      @ambermaem1 3 года назад +9

      @Fazzamania I’m sorry you are so upset. You must have some history and unresolved issues with this. As I said in my previous message, we do all we can to show respect for life and will do whatever is necessary to protect and save our lives when it’s in our power to do so. We NEVER celebrate death. However, we do draw the line at breaking God’s laws. For example, many of the JWs who died during the Holocaust could have chosen to denounce their faith and be set free by the Nazis, thus, saving their lives. But the vast majority did not do that and many lost their lives for it. They knew that denouncing their faith in Jehovah was worse than death.
      When it comes to the issue of blood, it is our firm belief that blood is sacred to Jehovah and that he does not want us to use it in that way. We don’t eat it or take it into our bodies in any way. If someone were to die because they refused blood, despite all other medical efforts, their death is not celebrated. It is mourned and we are extremely sad about it. What is celebrated is that the person chose to remain faithful even until death and we trust that Jehovah will remember them for it.
      The disfellowshipping arraignment is again something that was directed in the Bible by God and we follow God’s direction on it. It’s not something that is taken lightly and it isn’t done simply because someone disagrees with us.
      I can tell you that all of us are human and sometimes people within our organization can and do make mistakes but most of us are sincerely trying to live our lives the way God wants us to. Nothing I’ve said is a lie and I’ve never found any lies coming from our publications or the direction we’ve been given. If something is proven to be inaccurate, they will publish that correction as well.
      Again, I’m sorry you are upset and I hope you will be able to find some resolution and peace. Have a good night.

I will rise again at the last day, 55- for my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. 56- Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood remains in union with me, and I in union with him.

Because they close the kingdom of heaven to men; for you yourselves do not enter, nor do you let in those who are on their way to enter." look at the Conclusion of Jesus (John ch 10: 09,10) 9- I am the door; whoever enters by me will be saved, and will enter and he shall go out, and find pasture.” 10- A thief comes only to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.

      Correct; our Governing Body saw these times were coming so had already arranged for many congregations to SHARE our very modest structures called Kingdom Halls. So now that we are in a pandemic and presently not using our Halls at all (in co-operation with governmental efforts to reduce community transmission), this is saving funds and maintenance work. But of course, our contributions are far from being 'saved' - every dollar is channelled into disaster relief and on the all-important bible education work Jesus assigned every genuine Christian to continue, particularly in these 'last days'. And the smart way is now thru amazing technology that can reach even remote corners of the globe! Centuries of failed experimentation with human rulership is soon to end; Jehovah's Witnesses are well set to continue their massive education program right thru the spectacular end of this system of things into Almighty God's restored earthly paradise. They are not building up their own careers or material possessions, but living a life of self-sacrifice in order to spend time helping their own fellow citizens. But of course, as in the day of Noah, the majority will not appreciate our efforts. Their choice.

When he said "this generation" he meant THIS GENERATION not two people who's lives happen to overlap. They're grasping at straws to explain why everyone alive to see 1914 have all gone but no armageddon. and when this "overlapping generation" goes without the "end coming" they will come up with another explanation.

    Elders are really "company men" who act as human resource agents for the Watchtower organization.
    Remember, human resource agents act only in the best interests of the company.
    Elders search out any who are not loyal to the company, and those who are not actively supporting the policies and mission; as well as, individuals who are not reaching established goals within the corporation.
    All of these individuals threaten the profitability and outward reputation of of the company, and may affect others in the organization.
    When individuals inside of the organization/corporation have learned of hypocritical actions, deceitful policies, or lies regarding the actions of representatives of corporation, departments or heads of the corporation (Governing Body) and begin exposing these...
    Elders (human resource agents of the Watchtower ) are assigned to eliminate or lessen the effects of "whistle blowers" by labeling them "apostates".
    Once they identify an individual as a "whistle blower" they follow well established company rules and actively pursue any threat that may expose secretive practices, hypocrisy, or harmful or illegal actions that may impact company's profitability.
    Elders follow corporation guidelines set forth in the exclusive manual for elders, entitled: "Shepherd the Flock of God" published by the WTBTS.
    1. To become informed as to the level of knowledge and information a potential whistle blower possesses.
    2. Have a formal meeting (Judicial Committee hearing) with them to ascertain the level of dissent or waning support for the organization and threat they pose to the corporation.
    3. Formally put the whistle blower on notice their actions constitute disloyalty to the corporation and they will be "fired" from the company losing all benefits and any ties to other members of the corporation.
    4. During a congregation meeting ( regularly scheduled corporation workshop) announce the "firing" of those who have failed to follow corporate rules.

    You are not saved by works but by the grace of Jesus' death and ressurection. None of us are good enough. We are all full of sin but Jesus took that all away by his sacrifice for us x all we need to do is accept Him as our saviour x there is freedom in knowing we do not have to work for salvation. It truly is as simple as having Faith x that faith causes us to want to be sinless and to please God but He is gracious and loving and understands we cannot be perfect. He was and is the only perfect being and that's why he is Love. He gave it all for us, even those who killed him. The greatest act of Love I've ever heard of. ❤

      The First to the Corinthians5:1-13
      Actually sexual immorality is reported among you, and such immorality as is not even found among the nations-of a man living with* his father’s wife 2 And are you proud of it? Should you not rather mourn, so that the man who committed this deed should be taken away from your midst? 3 Although absent in body, I am present in spirit, and I have already judged the man who has done this, as if I were actually with you. 4 When you are gathered together in the name of our Lord Jesus, and knowing that I am with you in spirit along with the power of our Lord Jesus, 5 you must hand such a man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord. 6 Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven ferments the whole batch of dough?7 Clear away the old leaven so that you may be a new batch, inasmuch as you are free from ferment. For, indeed, Christ our Passover lambh has been sacrificed. 8 So, then, let us keep the festival, not with old leaven, nor with leaven of badness and wickedness, but with unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.9 In my letter I wrote you to stop keeping company with sexually immoral people, 10 not meaning entirely with the sexually immoral people of this world or the greedy people or extortioners or idolaters. Otherwise, you would actually have to get out of the world. 11 But now I am writing you to stop keeping company with anyone called a brother who is sexually immoral or a greedy personn or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkardo or an extortioner, not even eating with such a man. 12 For what do I have to do with judging those outside? Do you not judge those inside, 13 while God judges those outside? “Remove the wicked person from among yourselves.”
      So tell me how the true Christian congregation is to handle these sinners?

Pew Research shows that only 9 percent of Witnesses get undergraduate degrees (well below the US national average of 30.4 percent and the lowest of any faith group). As a result, Jehovah's Witnesses are among the lowest earners of any religious group.

      Look up the older book "Children" published by the Watchtower Society and released in 1941, in which the featured young couple decide to wait until *after Armageddon* to get married and have children... The Watchtower Society has generally clung to that ridiculous mentality up to this day, as can be seen by some of the recent talks by Jehovah's Witness spokesmen.

      Tony Morris did say if they don't preach that the JWs would be blood guilty... My question is why didn't Tony Morris preach inside the liquor store when he was buying up all that alcohol... As usual the JWs probably don't even know or have not seen the video... The blatant hypocrisy from Tony Morris!

    No impact at all NONE!! we have reached more people than ever and the response to letters has been astronomical. Jehovah always finds a way and will always support his people and will find those who need him. In our small and pretty elderly congregation, number I know of is 4 studies and 3 attending meetings!!.
