I’m getting baptized (Christian) next week and have to let my Jehovah’s Witness family members know, so I need all the support I can get. Thank you, Sir.
Thank you for this. It's so true what you say at the end. My husband's whole family are jw, not him though. The hypocrisy I've seen is crazy. I'm a believer and the only thing I can do is show them through how I live my life. I could never approach them or try to debate. They're taught to believe what I believe is of the devil, so sad.
Thank you for sharing your heart, your talent, and your dream. My older brother is a JW, and I constantly intercede on his behalf. I pray that God will help the scales to fall off his eyes and that he will find salvation in Christ. I can't wait to view your next video. May God bless and keep you for such a time as this.
Pausing the video just to tell you I understand being skeptical of the gifts of the spirit. And absolutely not every gift that is claimed by every person is real. But my Brother, you absolutely have the gift of teaching. The gifts are used to equip the body of Christ, as I am sure you know. This, in my opinion no matter how out there some people are or how much the flesh inevitably gets involved, is something that will be necessary until he returns. And I am confident that he has ordained you to bring the word to his people. You are so new at this, but honestly there is something so organic and authentic in your videos that I have never seen before. That I can’t put my finger on. Therefore, i strongly believe it is Christ. God bless your ministry
You bring up important points for us ExJW’s dealing with the shunning policy, your right sticking closely to the Holy scriptures showing our love and respect of them, can help us to reach out to JW’s when we have the opportunities. ‘I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me’. Phil 4:13
Also had a dream last week. My mum and a sister in the congregation I was studying with were sat in the front of the car. My mum was driving and I was explaining to her, how the New scrolls are estras and bauruck. I wole up and knew it was our spiritual bodies communicating. Keep hope and pray for our lost family's. Our Lord hears our petition
Nice work. My father and three of my children have been blinded by the org. Regarding your dream i believe you clearly know what it means. I think of my family that's still in i know how indoctrinated i was. But i also know that those feelings of dread and the feelings that something was wrong kept prodding me. Until they feel the same sense that something is inherently wrong with the teachings they cannot begin to break the bonds. 54 years indoctrination for me and waking up on a Sunday morning at 5am with a scripture going over and over in my head changed me. At the time i was a full time pioneer. Pray for them and i will as well that they see something that wakes them from their deep sleep. Peace brother
Went back in 2020 after believing that now I found Jesus and loved him in my heart, that my family would be happy I finally came round. Quickly realised that the Jesus they claim isn't the Jesus of the bible. They hated me more than ever. Do you have an email I can contact you on?
Signs, miracles, and wonders including dreams are tools,methods the Lord uses to communicate with his children. God has spoken to me through dreams for as long as I can remember . Weird but true. There are many examples of this in the bible.
Hi thank you no entiendo todo pero se lo que pasaste y somos guerreros.y nuestro despertar fue doloroso pero ahora somos libres gracias saludos cordiales desde Mexico 🇲🇽
Ty so much! This video was eye opening! I will continue to focus on loving my children & grandchildren even through the rejection. Your dreams do reveal that we have no control or power over others. Its all up to Christ & the Holy Spirit!❤
Brother your channel is GOLD, this video is GOLD!…I’m a Christian, never a baptize witness but I have family members & even studied for 5yrs with the witnesses…. …it took me down a path were I totally rejected all major religions (even JWs) but brought me back to the basics…THE BIBLE.
Heres an interpretation of the dream Unfortunately no amount of signs will be enough to wake someone up, because some people have blasphemed The Holy Spirit, even if you move the moon some will simply chose ignorance over God, and this is where our love to Christ comes to play, Showing we love God, more than our family. But all things are possible with God, and this is where us showing our faith to the Lord, to Our God showing we chose God over all things, The possibility of our family members living eternal life with us because of our loyalty to the Living God, is...... Theres no word for it because possible is too little if a word.
This is explained beautifully. My mother just passed jan 2. She was 80 years old and a jw I have 5 sisters and only 1 who is in the cult my sis i. I feel for her bc i know this is very stressful for her since she will need the jwd approval and not Gods. The rest of us has promised to love and show love in action and let our love for Jesus prevail. I needed this before the funeral at the kh next week. Thank you
Excellent thank you with all my heart I needed to hear these words. Im curious if the principal in 1Pet 3:1-5 apies to your dream, perhaps the dream is sayinng scripture is not what will move your parents, but a time will come when you have opportunity to show your strength of faith and that will speak louder than words.
1 John 4:1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. Proverbs 14:15 The simple believes everything, but the prudent gives thought to his steps. Matthew 24:4-5 And Jesus answered them, See that no one leads you astray. For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray. Ephesians 5:6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Isaiah 29:13 Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men: 2 Peter 2:2 And many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of truth will be blasphemed. 2 Peter 2:14-15 They have eyes full of adultery, insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accursed children! Forsaking the right way, they have gone astray. They have followed the way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved gain from wrongdoing, 2 Peter 2:18-19 For, speaking loud boasts of folly, they entice by sensual passions of the flesh those who are barely escaping from those who live in error. They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption. For whatever overcomes a person, to that he is enslaved. Matthew 7:15-17 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 1 Timothy 6:3-5 If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. 1 Timothy 6:11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. Titus 2:11-12 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, Matthew 16:24 Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. Luke 14:27 Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple. 2 Timothy 3:12 Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, 1 Peter 3:14 But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them, nor be troubled,
REV. 21:2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. ( the church of God, both in the Old and New Testament, is often called Jerusalem ) So what is the church doing coming down from heaven if they are of a EARTHLY hope I thought the church does not go to heaven ?
WHEN JWS REALLY READ 📖 DANIEL PROPHESY OF THE TREE 🎄 ; IT DOESN'T MENTION THE KINGDOM BUT THE TREE 🎄 IS NEBUCADNEZZER NOT THE ISRAEL. THEY READ THEIR IDEA IN SCRIPTURES AND THEY RAN WITH IT .
Hi brother. I don't think you're crazy at all. From what I've learned we have a few things in common. I was born into the JW organization on both sides of my family. I never was baptized as a JW because I rebelled as a teenager and went on to proclaim myself agnostic over many years. I'm 35 now and only a little over a year ago did I have an experience where I felt the holy spirit and he showed me I was wrong and for the very first time I repented for my sins and felt his grace. After that I began reading the bible and learning things I never knew. Basically every thing you talk about, especially about Jesus Christ, the 144,000 and what happens when we die. Anyway, if I may humble myself to assist you. I by no means am good or know many things but when I listened to you describe your dream it made me think of a scripture that could help explain it. I think it's amazing that God spoke to you and I do think he can do this to some people. It's in Luke 16:27-31. When Jesus talks of a parable where a rich man who dies and goes to Hades begs Abraham to send a sign to his family so they turn from their ways and don't suffer his same fate. But Abraham tells him no, that if they don't listen and believe the law and the prophets then they won't believe these signs either. May God be with us all. I pray for my family every day too.
Jesus said he came not to bring peace but a sword to set man against his father and daughters, sons, in-laws... Matthew 10:34-36 ESV He tells us our enemies will become those in our own households for those who follow him. Take heart and be courageous Body of Christ. Continue to pray and intercede for those who are still blind. But we his sheep are set apart.
John 12:32 (quote from Jesus) "And I, if I be lifted up from the Earth, will draw all men unto me." All people are drawn, yet not all will accept the invitation. We cannot decide who will or won't believe. But we can proclaim the truth to them. There is no one for whom Christ did not die. Yet there are many who refuse the gift of his death for them. See 1 John 2:2 and 2 Peter 2:1 if you're curious.
Deuteronomy 18:13 Thou shalt be perfect with the Lord thy God. Matthew 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. Leviticus 19:2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy: for I the Lord your God am holy. 1 Peter 1:15-16 As he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. Luke 6:36 Be ye merciful, as your Father also is merciful. Ephesians 4:32 Be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. James 1:22 Be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. Ephesians 5:1 Be ye followers of God, as dear children; Matthew 23:8 Be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. Romans 12:21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. John 14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. John 12:44 Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me. Matthew 10:40 He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me. Mark 9:37 Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me. John 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. John 12:48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. John 3:33-36 He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true. For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
It's always a REASON why people don't like you! Most of the time it's mainly by their EXPECTATIONS of you. Many expect others to think as they do. Many expect you to do things as they do. Many expect you to fall in line with their zone of things that will make them happy or better off chasing after them calling them it being one sided. They want you to always agree what they agree on. Always being RIGHT over you can sway you to do things to make them happy instead of your self and family and soon as you piss them off they walk away continue on as if you never existed IT'S WHEN WE DON'T ALLOW THAT from them is when the HATE comes. If a child can't have his way or get what they want they have a tantrum right then and there and get MAD at the person that isn't complying trying to bust them in the head with a toy. Many of us experience that behavior from different age levels of the people around us never dealing with that to improve themselves getting self control, learning respect, understanding in situations like that. So when they get denied, told "No", or can't have what they want out the situation that same mentality comes out age 15, 21, 30, 45, 79 facing rejection. And depending on how bad this person want that OPPORTUNITY of yours for themselves and how they may view "you" as not important, don't care what you want or may think or your outcome. They will try to take it, they will try to remove you or whomever in their way and most of the time they are not playing fair. They are willing to destroy you if needed to get what they want out the situation. That is what it is why so many people hate other people attacking them because they are in their way stopping them from having what they are after or wanting in that situation. It's often always being in that situation with alot of people you meet in your life. People get mad at the simplest, smallest things quick to walk away out of your life. If they want something bad enough they will not hold back of trying to get it from you. Starting off behind your back you don't even have a clue they plotting and scheming on you and BAM you find out and they begin showing that HATE openly and out for that jugular vein doing this to you, that to you abusing police, courts, friends, step-kids turning folk against you. You being like wow!! Don't I have that right to have my own family with my spouse and our children without you wanting to come and raise our children as you desire in your jw religion grand ma. We doing something different over here baptist why are you attacking us, why bringing drama to our household, why are you trying to ruin and destroy our family keeping us from enjoy our own lives as we have that right too. Nobody interfered with you raising your 4 children why you causing problems for my wife and I? So people just expect you to fall in line with their ways and beliefs when you don't they begin the tantrum behind closed doors and begin their attack trying to ruin you as that child trying to buss you in the head with their doll or truck being denied that snack or outside playground. It's sad but it's truth and reality. Many of us lose alot of friends and family behind this wanting our opportunities for themselves to control and benefit off of instead of us the rightful entitled. So when they storm off whether they succeed at taking your step-kids away from your household by manipulation and abuse of the court system they think they defeated you!!! In truth they ruined a family, messed up your kids minds causing issue for them in later years turning them against their parent, siblings, step-parent. All because they trying to impress a jw org to please it's leaders and they failed to convert them having the opportunity as they failed their own children converting them. So it's just HATE pushed on a non close family everybody divided can't even stay in communication carrying ongoing hate wanting to control your adult child children and run their family. You didn't win but cemented your judgement day to be ask you why did you do what you did causing all those problems and issues for your daughter and her family. I was trying to please you GOD trying to save my grandchildren i felt they didn't have what it take to raise their own children together as they wanted. I wanted their opportunity myself. Ms R you literally destroyed your daughters family to get that chance and didn't care on all you caused for them removing 4 of 6 of their children by deception caused separation, hardship, struggle, $$$ loss of a happy family they were before you decided to try to please your religion leadership. And after all that 2016 you come to the hospital telling her doctors not to give her blood transfusions having 2 infections from chemo almost dying. You caused her and her spouse to separate for 4 years previous out of state from each other. I brought her spouse back in 2016 to her to save his spouse life knowing you was trying to please and use your religion leaders and their policies. He saved your daughters life you almost ended it! So all this other stuff you brought on her family since 2003 bringing extreme problems and hardships just because you trying to please your religious leaders. Then in 2023 you come after another child of your daughter behind her parents back sending her a train ticket without their knowledge so you can try to force her into your religion to impress those same religious leaders to bring further hurt and pain, sadness to your adult daughter and family trying to further ruin them. 4 out of their 6 and her spouse kids You did alot to your daughter's and their family's over the decades trying to please your religion org leaders. So you EXPECT me to bless you, send you on to paradise/heaven, be proud happy for you on all you did to your own daughter's you had plenty times to repent do what was right but continued on following foolishness you wasn't following me never had my spirit in you I never knew you and it's no place for you here Ms R! someone is here to speak to you! Your son in law **** Ms B I forgiven you for all the damage you caused for my family!!! We survived it I ask GOD ALMIGHTY if he can give you a chance to save you from going to that lake of fire. That you will repent from all your previous sins and show your daughter you was sorry and want to make up in heaven being a mother, friend, respecting her spouse, being a grandmother respecting your daughters household. ****** I know you are a sincere child of mines and really mean well so I will grant you your request in saving Ms R from the fate she has brought on her life. ******* you will remain on earth with your wife and children till your time to come and MS R time is now so down the road you all will unite in Heaven given you that chance to be the family you all should of been on earth.
Its really quite easy to deal with JEHOVAHS WITNESSS family members 1) listen to them 2) have a Bible study with them 3) study and learn the truth 4) get baptised , in the name of JESUS.
Read Jehovah of the Watchtower by Walter Martin. He gives evidence and proof of the Watchtower's false claims including their founder and false prophecies.
Really?? Jehovah's Witnesses don't want to listen? I haven't met any one that are willing to listen, no matter what they believe or which religion they belong to. I think you may be on the band wagon, dissing Jehovah's Witnesses cause its popular and to get views. If you are a former Witness then perhaps look at yourself and your agenda and the person you are, don't lump all Witnesses into the same category that you are in. They are not you.
I have yet to have a JW listen to me. In fact, they get pretty upset when their doctrine falls apart when questioned about their blind faith in the organization instead of the Bible. Kind of like what you did here. I can hear the tone in your text. Yes, JWs never wan to listen. EVERY time I talk to a JW, they are just waiting for me to stop talking so THEY can start talking again. They don't listen to what I am actually saying. And, the closer the relative, the more upset they get; especially when trying to get them to tell me where the rejection of the emblems is taught in the Bible. Their "memorial" just took place, and I ask this all the time, and have yet for a single JW to tell me why they REJECT the emblems and give me the verse where this is taught. You didn't even address the content of the video, you just took exception to his personal comment concerning his own experience when trying to talk with his jw family members. That rings true for me also. The Christian faith is CENTERED on Jesus Christ. The entire New Testament is about Jesus Christ, and NOWHERE in the NT is the tetragrammaton found in ANY Greek Manuscript. We are witnesses to Christ, and in doing so God, the Father, receives the Glory. Jesus even makes the claim that even the OT is about Himself. John 5:39-47. Read this passage and tell me which "scriptures" Jesus was talking about? He was speaking of the OT. The OT testifies of Jesus, by His own words. Moses wrote about Jesus, and yet, JWs refuse to come to HIM. I read on a KH one time a phrase that isn't in the Bible. It said, "Come to Jehovah's organization for salvation". Really? Chapter and verse please. Oh, I've NEVER been a witness to the jw god, never will be. I am a witness of Jesus, like He told us to be. We are His Ambassadors. It is Jesus you must run to, It is Jesus that is magnified and glorified. It is at the name of Jesus, that every knee will bow, and every tongue confess. Phil 2:10, Isaiah 45:23. WE ONLY have life in Jesus, not in an organization. Jesus is the eternal God, the Creator and Sustainer of the Universe. It is Jesus that you need to go to for forgiveness of sins, not some created angel the org teaches you. Come to Jesus and find True salvation, and put down the Watchtower magazine, it won't help you a bit.
You must of have talked to closed minded people because I often have discussions (even when I was still a believer in “The Truth”) about different religions with one of my friends who’s studying to become a catholic priest. Most religions aren’t telling their members to treat any outside source as Satan’s hand, cults do that to control you.
@@whorablereligion Well your last sentence isn't true, as we go witnessing to everybody, we exclude no one. Only those who do not want us to call, we respect their wishes.
I'm currently talking to Jehovah witnesses and they are more than willing to speak to me and listen to me even though I told them I am a Christian. But I also know that if I'm not very careful with my words and if they think that at any point I'm saying anything that goes against the watchtower whether or not the Bible says it's true they will run away and call me an apostate... It's very difficult for me to share the truth when I have to tiptoe around the lies whether intentionally or unintentionally done that is within their Church. So yes they're willing to talk to me as long as I don't startled them with actual Bible verses about the deity of Christ. I feel like I have to tiptoe around them like they are flighty little birds will disappear if I make any sudden movements... How am I supposed to share the Bible with these people? They might be coming to my door but they already have one foot out before we even talk... If I say anything about the Trinity or the fact that you have to come to God through Christ. But the Bible makes it very clear that Jesus had a physical form after his resurrection. That Michael the archangel is one of many chief priests in heaven and several other Angels share his title. That Michael the archangel was not able to rebuke the devil but Jesus Christ is. Jesus Christ is unique and Michael isn't... If I say any of that to quickly they will run
I’m getting baptized (Christian) next week and have to let my Jehovah’s Witness family members know, so I need all the support I can get. Thank you, Sir.
I’m in Kingdom Hall trying to evangelize in the bible study’s please pray that their hearts soften n come to the real Truth
Thank you for this. It's so true what you say at the end. My husband's whole family are jw, not him though. The hypocrisy I've seen is crazy. I'm a believer and the only thing I can do is show them through how I live my life. I could never approach them or try to debate. They're taught to believe what I believe is of the devil, so sad.
Your voice is very relaxing , you’re a good man ! Keep up
The good work . Love Ashley Godwin from Pa
Thank you for sharing your heart, your talent, and your dream. My older brother is a JW, and I constantly intercede on his behalf.

Your vedios are brilliant heart-warming kind humble and so needed. Please keep them coming. Sadly this is such a lonely journey 🙏
You are the first person that has explained things I can clearly see & understand. Thank you so much.
Also had a dream last week. My mum and a sister in the congregation I was studying with were sat in the front of the car. My mum was driving and I was explaining to her, how the New scrolls are estras and bauruck.
I wole up and knew it was our spiritual bodies communicating. Keep hope and pray for our lost family's. Our Lord hears our petition
Appreciate your channel and videos. Leaving watchtower does not mean we have to abandon God and Jesus and the Bible.
Nice work. My father and three of my children have been blinded by the org. Regarding your dream i believe you clearly know what it means. I think of my family that's still in i know how indoctrinated i was. But i also know that those feelings of dread and the feelings that something was wrong kept prodding me.

Just found this! Love the simplicity and cartoons I'm out of the cult! Thank goodness 🙏🏾 will send to my other family
Went back in 2020 after believing that now I found Jesus and loved him in my heart, that my family would be happy I finally came round. Quickly realised that the Jesus they claim isn't the Jesus of the bible. They hated me more than ever. Do you have an email I can contact you on?
I love our savior Jesus and I am a born-in the jws but I trying to be christian and study with them and this channel answer me doubts about the bible
Walk with Christ🕊Amen🙏
Our Lord Jesus Christ, Loves You So Much
I appreciate your heart in this video. You handled the subject tactfully and with much care and empathy.
Signs, miracles, and wonders including dreams are tools,methods the Lord uses to communicate with his children. God has spoken to me through dreams for as long as I can remember . Weird but true. There are many examples of this in the bible.
It looks like you already ready know the interpretation of your dream. Excellent video.

God bless i really appreciate your works
Thank you so much!
Heres an interpretation of the dream
Unfortunately no amount of signs will be enough to wake someone up, because some people have blasphemed The Holy Spirit, even if you move the moon some will simply chose ignorance over God, and this is where our love to Christ comes to play, Showing we love God, more than our family.
But all things are possible with God, and this is where us showing our faith to the Lord, to Our God showing we chose God over all things, The possibility of our family members living eternal life with us because of our loyalty to the Living God, is......

This is explained beautifully. My mother just passed jan 2. She was 80 years old and a jw I have 5 sisters and only 1 who is in the cult my sis i. I feel for her bc i know this is very stressful for her since she will need the jwd approval and not Gods. The rest of us has promised to love and show love in action and let our love for Jesus prevail. I needed this before the funeral at the kh next week. Thank you

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
1 Timothy 6:3-5
If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
1 Timothy 6:11
But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
Titus 2:11-12
For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age,
Matthew 16:24
Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.
Luke 14:27
Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple.
2 Timothy 3:12
Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,
1 Peter 3:14
But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them, nor be troubled,
REV. 21:2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. ( the church of God, both in the Old and New Testament, is often called Jerusalem ) So what is the church doing coming down from heaven if they are of a EARTHLY hope I thought the church does not go to heaven ?
WHEN JWS REALLY READ 📖 DANIEL PROPHESY OF THE TREE 🎄 ; IT DOESN'T MENTION THE KINGDOM BUT THE TREE 🎄 IS NEBUCADNEZZER NOT THE ISRAEL. THEY READ THEIR IDEA IN SCRIPTURES AND THEY RAN WITH IT .
Very loving Stuff !
Keep up the good work
IMO god will allow for the factors we succumbed to. He will read our hearts based on other criteria than we would 🫶⚖️🫶
9:38 I'm a pimo myself and I've no way of ecscaping
I believe that your dream was legit. Lord, open the hearts and minds of my brother’s family members.
🕊🤍🙏
If the cult falls, will they wake up?
Hi brother. I don't think you're crazy at all. From what I've learned we have a few things in common. I was born into the JW organization on both sides of my family. I never was baptized as a JW because I rebelled as a teenager and went on to proclaim myself agnostic over many years. I'm 35 now and only a little over a year ago did I have an experience where I felt the holy spirit and he showed me I was wrong and for the very first time I repented for my sins and felt his grace. After that I began reading the bible and learning things I never knew. Basically every thing you talk about, especially about Jesus Christ, the 144,000 and what happens when we die. Anyway, if I may humble myself to assist you. I by no means am good or know many things but when I listened to you describe your dream it made me think of a scripture that could help explain it. I think it's amazing that God spoke to you and I do think he can do this to some people. It's in Luke 16:27-31. When Jesus talks of a parable where a rich man who dies and goes to Hades begs Abraham to send a sign to his family so they turn from their ways and don't suffer his same fate. But Abraham tells him no, that if they don't listen and believe the law and the prophets then they won't believe these signs either. May God be with us all. I pray for my family every day too.
Interesting Interpretation, I can see that, never thought about it that way. Thanks For Sharing!
HE HAS MANY OPERATIONS 1CORINTHIANS 12 : 6 ; PSALMS 139 CHAPTER TESTIFY TO JESUS CHRIST.
Jesus said he came not to bring peace but a sword to set man against his father and daughters, sons, in-laws... Matthew 10:34-36 ESV
He tells us our enemies will become those in our own households for those who follow him.
Take heart and be courageous Body of Christ. Continue to pray and intercede for those who are still blind. But we his sheep are set apart.
John 12:32 (quote from Jesus)
"And I, if I be lifted up from the Earth, will draw all men unto me."
All people are drawn, yet not all will accept the invitation.
We cannot decide who will or won't believe. But we can proclaim the truth to them.
There is no one for whom Christ did not die. Yet there are many who refuse the gift of his death for them.

It's always a REASON why people don't like you! Most of the time it's mainly by their EXPECTATIONS of you. Many expect others to think as they do. Many expect you to do things as they do. Many expect you to fall in line with their zone of things that will make them happy or better off chasing after them calling them it being one sided. They want you to always agree what they agree on. Always being RIGHT over you can sway you to do things to make them happy instead of your self and family and soon as you piss them off they walk away continue on as if you never existed IT'S WHEN WE DON'T ALLOW THAT from them is when the HATE comes.
If a child can't have his way or get what they want they have a tantrum right then and there and get MAD at the person that isn't complying trying to bust them in the head with a toy. Many of us experience that behavior from different age levels of the people around us never dealing with that to improve themselves getting self control, learning respect, understanding in situations like that. So when they get denied, told "No", or can't have what they want out the situation that same mentality comes out age 15, 21, 30, 45, 79 facing rejection.
And depending on how bad this person want that OPPORTUNITY of yours for themselves and how they may view "you" as not important, don't care what you want or may think or your outcome. They will try to take it, they will try to remove you or whomever in their way and most of the time they are not playing fair. They are willing to destroy you if needed to get what they want out the situation.
That is what it is why so many people hate other people attacking them because they are in their way stopping them from having what they are after or wanting in that situation. It's often always being in that situation with alot of people you meet in your life. People get mad at the simplest, smallest things quick to walk away out of your life. If they want something bad enough they will not hold back of trying to get it from you. Starting off behind your back you don't even have a clue they plotting and scheming on you and BAM you find out and they begin showing that HATE openly and out for that jugular vein doing this to you, that to you abusing police, courts, friends, step-kids turning folk against you. You being like wow!!
Don't I have that right to have my own family with my spouse and our children without you wanting to come and raise our children as you desire in your jw religion grand ma. We doing something different over here baptist why are you attacking us, why bringing drama to our household, why are you trying to ruin and destroy our family keeping us from enjoy our own lives as we have that right too. Nobody interfered with you raising your 4 children why you causing problems for my wife and I?
So people just expect you to fall in line with their ways and beliefs when you don't they begin the tantrum behind closed doors and begin their attack trying to ruin you as that child trying to buss you in the head with their doll or truck being denied that snack or outside playground. It's sad but it's truth and reality. Many of us lose alot of friends and family behind this wanting our opportunities for themselves to control and benefit off of instead of us the rightful entitled. So when they storm off whether they succeed at taking your step-kids away from your household by manipulation and abuse of the court system they think they defeated you!!!
In truth they ruined a family, messed up your kids minds causing issue for them in later years turning them against their parent, siblings, step-parent. All because they trying to impress a jw org to please it's leaders and they failed to convert them having the opportunity as they failed their own children converting them. So it's just HATE pushed on a non close family everybody divided can't even stay in communication carrying ongoing hate wanting to control your adult child children and run their family. You didn't win but cemented your judgement day to be ask you why did you do what you did causing all those problems and issues for your daughter and her family.
I was trying to please you GOD trying to save my grandchildren i felt they didn't have what it take to raise their own children together as they wanted. I wanted their opportunity myself. Ms R you literally destroyed your daughters family to get that chance and didn't care on all you caused for them removing 4 of 6 of their children by deception caused separation, hardship, struggle, $$$ loss of a happy family they were before you decided to try to please your religion leadership. And after all that 2016 you come to the hospital telling her doctors not to give her blood transfusions having 2 infections from chemo almost dying.
You caused her and her spouse to separate for 4 years previous out of state from each other. I brought her spouse back in 2016 to her to save his spouse life knowing you was trying to please and use your religion leaders and their policies. He saved your daughters life you almost ended it! So all this other stuff you brought on her family since 2003 bringing extreme problems and hardships just because you trying to please your religious leaders. Then in 2023 you come after another child of your daughter behind her parents back sending her a train ticket without their knowledge so you can try to force her into your religion to impress those same religious leaders to bring further hurt and pain, sadness to your adult daughter and family trying to further ruin them. 4 out of their 6 and her spouse kids
You did alot to your daughter's and their family's over the decades trying to please your religion org leaders. So you EXPECT me to bless you, send you on to paradise/heaven, be proud happy for you on all you did to your own daughter's you had plenty times to repent do what was right but continued on following foolishness you wasn't following me never had my spirit in you I never knew you and it's no place for you here Ms R! someone is here to speak to you! Your son in law ****
Ms B I forgiven you for all the damage you caused for my family!!! We survived it I ask GOD ALMIGHTY if he can give you a chance to save you from going to that lake of fire. That you will repent from all your previous sins and show your daughter you was sorry and want to make up in heaven being a mother, friend, respecting her spouse, being a grandmother respecting your daughters household.
****** I know you are a sincere child of mines and really mean well so I will grant you your request in saving Ms R from the fate she has brought on her life. ******* you will remain on earth with your wife and children till your time to come and MS R time is now so down the road you all will unite in Heaven given you that chance to be the family you all should of been on earth.
Saint Paul wrote: "Ye are saved by grace and not by works ... ." Where in the Gospels would I find the exact same belief -- not a similar teaching?
Its really quite easy to deal with JEHOVAHS WITNESSS family members
1) listen to them
2) have a Bible study with them
3) study and learn the truth
4) get baptised , in the name of JESUS.
Read Jehovah of the Watchtower by Walter Martin.
He gives evidence and proof of the Watchtower's false claims including their founder and false prophecies.
This is hilarious. You just traded one lie for another 😂
Really?? Jehovah's Witnesses don't want to listen? I haven't met any one that are willing to listen, no matter what they believe or which religion they belong to. I think you may be on the band wagon, dissing Jehovah's Witnesses cause its popular and to get views. If you are a former Witness then perhaps look at yourself and your agenda and the person you are, don't lump all Witnesses into the same category that you are in. They are not you.
I have yet to have a JW listen to me. In fact, they get pretty upset when their doctrine falls apart when questioned about their blind faith in the organization instead of the Bible.
Kind of like what you did here. I can hear the tone in your text. Yes, JWs never wan to listen. EVERY time I talk to a JW, they are just waiting for me to stop talking so THEY can start talking again. They don't listen to what I am actually saying. And, the closer the relative, the more upset they get; especially when trying to get them to tell me where the rejection of the emblems is taught in the Bible. Their "memorial" just took place, and I ask this all the time, and have yet for a single JW to tell me why they REJECT the emblems and give me the verse where this is taught.
You didn't even address the content of the video, you just took exception to his personal comment concerning his own experience when trying to talk with his jw family members. That rings true for me also.
The Christian faith is CENTERED on Jesus Christ. The entire New Testament is about Jesus Christ, and NOWHERE in the NT is the tetragrammaton found in ANY Greek Manuscript. We are witnesses to Christ, and in doing so God, the Father, receives the Glory.
Jesus even makes the claim that even the OT is about Himself. John 5:39-47. Read this passage and tell me which "scriptures" Jesus was talking about? He was speaking of the OT. The OT testifies of Jesus, by His own words. Moses wrote about Jesus, and yet, JWs refuse to come to HIM.
I read on a KH one time a phrase that isn't in the Bible. It said, "Come to Jehovah's organization for salvation". Really? Chapter and verse please. Oh, I've NEVER been a witness to the jw god, never will be. I am a witness of Jesus, like He told us to be. We are His Ambassadors. It is Jesus you must run to, It is Jesus that is magnified and glorified. It is at the name of Jesus, that every knee will bow, and every tongue confess. Phil 2:10, Isaiah 45:23. WE ONLY have life in Jesus, not in an organization. Jesus is the eternal God, the Creator and Sustainer of the Universe. It is Jesus that you need to go to for forgiveness of sins, not some created angel the org teaches you. Come to Jesus and find True salvation, and put down the Watchtower magazine, it won't help you a bit.
You must of have talked to closed minded people because I often have discussions (even when I was still a believer in “The Truth”) about different religions with one of my friends who’s studying to become a catholic priest. Most religions aren’t telling their members to treat any outside source as Satan’s hand, cults do that to control you.
@@whorablereligion Well your last sentence isn't true, as we go witnessing to everybody, we exclude no one. Only those who do not want us to call, we respect their wishes.
@@61sunset nobody on planet earth wants a lying cult to call them. Wake up already
I'm currently talking to Jehovah witnesses and they are more than willing to speak to me and listen to me even though I told them I am a Christian. But I also know that if I'm not very careful with my words and if they think that at any point I'm saying anything that goes against the watchtower whether or not the Bible says it's true they will run away and call me an apostate...
It's very difficult for me to share the truth when I have to tiptoe around the lies whether intentionally or unintentionally done that is within their Church.
So yes they're willing to talk to me as long as I don't startled them with actual Bible verses about the deity of Christ.
I feel like I have to tiptoe around them like they are flighty little birds will disappear if I make any sudden movements... How am I supposed to share the Bible with these people?
They might be coming to my door but they already have one foot out before we even talk... If I say anything about the Trinity or the fact that you have to come to God through Christ. But the Bible makes it very clear that Jesus had a physical form after his resurrection. That Michael the archangel is one of many chief priests in heaven and several other Angels share his title. That Michael the archangel was not able to rebuke the devil but Jesus Christ is. Jesus Christ is unique and Michael isn't... If I say any of that to quickly they will run
