Breaking News:Michael Jackson and Prince to sing together at an upcoming concert to benefit the financially troubled Watchtower.

I have been studying with witnesses for almost 30 years and never got baptized. I do know that a lot of good things are taught there. There is so much hypocrisy in there as in many religions today. The bible is the only answer to anything you need to know about God and his son Jesus Christ. I have never gotten babtized, cause I always felt controlled or that I had to please someone there or in their time. Not in God’s time. Lots of good people are, so are there lots of good people in other religions as well. I have had some bad experiences with the witnesses. They want you to do things in their time when they say you are ready. If you were born in it and been taught that all your life then you don’t know what other faiths are about. I didn’t even though I wasn’t born in it. I was always told church people were bad people. In church which I now go to. They are some of the most loving people I have ever seen. Everybody shows love for each other no matter what religion you are. I have never learned so much about God till I started going to church. They teach straight from the bible and make it plain enough that you can understand, without adding or taking away from what the scriptures say. I thank God all the time for Him giving me knowledge of the scriptures and understanding. My prayers are better and straight from my heart. I feel very comfortable and happy with the way I am serving God. Everyone just needs to find their joy in the Lord and stop judging others and how they choose to worship. God will weed it out. We cannot do that as imperfect humans. So please stop saying who will live and who will be destroyed cause only one person knows that. that’s God himself. God bless you all. much love no matter what your faith is.

Hi Fri… not a coward, just don’t want the hassles. I’ve been around witnesses for years and, while none of them are perfect (and don’t claim to be), they seriously attempt to follow the Bible and, more importantly, the teachings of Jesus. If you don’t apply any other test, apply the description Jesus himself gave at John 13: 34, 35. You simply can’t apply that scriptural definition to Catholics, Protestants, Muslims, and the others who have and continue to kill each other, usually in wars but sometimes just for the fun of it. I would never try to convert you… I don’t have that kind of power. You’ll have to do that on your own nickel.

Say what you want James (and the others), the Witnesses are the only group seriously attempting to apply the principles contained in the Bible and be true followers of Jesus. Yep…. there are bad witnesses, bad elders, bad (fill in the blank) but it’s an unusual situation and not the norm, as in most other organized religions. Education has nothing to do with it. The only “educated” early christian was Paul (Saul), and his “education” had him originally persecuting christians. If you were so upset about the silent reproof given to a abuser/molester that it caused you to leave, did you also notify the authorities? If not, why not? From your story, it sounds like there was enough proof to do so. All of this reminds me a lot of the person who will take his ball and go home if nobody wants to play by his/her rules. You can’t make them up as you go along…. the principles are clear and you either follow them or you don’t. If you don’t, well that’s your choice. Hammering others who do (or at least try their best to) is pretty small.

Whatever the case or situation I urge all jehovordures to remain such and keep being exploited and sometimes murdered by the worst TERRORIST ORGANIZATION on earth, namely the Towers of All Terrors, led by the Filthful and Disgraceful Slavebugger in the name of sewage-born abomination known as jehowhore. The watchtower should be TRIALLED FOR CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY. yet they enjoy their filthy business on innocent blood. Then ya wonder how come the world’s gone down the toilet???

Why does a serving witness approach a discussion held by non believers? Witnessing on those you speculate are apostates, disfellowshiped ones or the very worst ‘disassociated ones’. Remembering back over my 20 odd as a dedicated faithful witness, I understand this intense curiosity and complete urge to help those that you feel just cant see the bigger picture of Jehovah and his purpose, surely if people could see what you see then all would be right. Surmising based on your beliefs that those that dont share the same view as you are lacking the good heart that Jehovah seeks out from the wicked ones. Very black and white isnt it… Witness good heart, everyone else bad heart. Witness worthy of life, everyone else only worthy of eternal death. Especially those that knew Jehovah intimately, yet chose to let go of his hand. In all seriousness you know you shouldnt be here, infact it is forbidden by the org and you know it. You are being continuously warned by the watchtower to stay away from such people that are using this site. The question here is why do you think the org warn you of doing it and further why cant you resist the urge and come on here anyways? You are so strong in your beliefs and dedication that you feel that you can change the thoughts of others. You are so sure you are right and have the right religon, why not test that and look into your organisation. To understand something fully you should know it intimately, you need to know the ingredients of a cake before you eat it and survive on it, let alone decide that others should partake of said cake. Desire to understand it, go through the watchtowers history, look at its youth and its growth to be the organisation it is today. If you can still stand there and tell us that it is something you would die for then I feel sorry for you. They are warning you off the points of view of those that have ceased being withness for various reasons, for a reason.. They dont want you to have both sides of the story, just their side of the story, how can you make a proper decision if you only know half the story.. Look into it I urge you to make the truth your own, know 100% that it is the truth and look at the org as a whole, not just looking at it the way they want you too. The watchtower has yet to be challenged and made answerable and accountable for all the blood on its hands. Let alone the stolen years of tainted devotion paid by the blinded witness of this org in the name of the proclaimed only true god. For those that are still entrapped in the blurred views of the watchtower I cry for and my heart bleeds for, for you have a long and disappointing road ahead. When the day comes for you, and you realize all you have sacrificed has been in vain, I sincerely hope that you have the courage to live through it. For 200 years the purposed Holocaust has yet to raise its fierce hand. What I hold devoted faith to is the fact that this org will soon be gone forever as in this generation it will indeed come to pass into its own fierce web of lies and disappear into history as the greatest cult that ever transpired to exist in human history. Iam not prophesying, just stating the obvious. The generation of those that served the world is coming to an end and as those last few perish this life, so to will it ring awakening bells in millions of witness’s heads as yet another watchtower prophecy hangs its weary head with the others in the hall of shame with the other false prophecys of this org.
