I was a JW for over 60 years. It is a publishing, real estate corporation disguised as a religion. Just like L. Ron Hubbard said, If you want to get rich turn a business into a religion.
@@lawrencevincent1 Yes I was in over 60 years of my life. Pretty stupid, huh? I honestly didn't know how to get out without consequences. Just like the mafia, there is no easy way to leave. I faded but I suffer the consequences of being shunned by family and so called JW friends.
It took you 60 years to realize that these robots had you fooled?They simply re programme healthy normal human beings and turn them Into zombies.If you ever saw the film the stepford wives you're gonna resonate for sure...
@@lawrencevincent1 Yes, I've seen Stepford wives. But when all of your family, husband children, JW friends from birth are all JW's, it isn't easy to leave. Remember the movie, Men in Black? I wish I could do like Tommy Lee Jones did when he retired. Will Smith zapped his memory of the alien beings. Wish I could do that with my JW upbringing.
I grew up as one. My whole family stopped when I was 13. The door to door, preaching, strict rules. It's all real. I understand that it gave me the ability to speak in a convicting manner, but the separation from society, the not being able to convey what I thought about life and us, as humans...they lied to me. I was a child, so malleable, so willing to find purpose, a meaning to the chaos. People could say that life has no purpose, no meaning at all. Cover any ground, any argument against what I feel. All the way from "who hurt you bruh!?" To "I dunno maybe hes just stupid". But alas, as I sit here reflecting on my experience, and you, yours. It's just a matter of time, we all gonna die eventually.
I hear you ....they make excuses for everyone but you !....If you had just acted like a stupid silent sheep ...No Problem ....How long can someone do that who isn't medicated ?
That’s because you are thinking rather negatively. Many who have left the organization thinking they were freed, well I would ask such people did you find the truth or did you simple left to be part of the world and do what you want? To me, I’m convinced JW are the only true Christians and outside of them there is no other religion that can even compare. I learned Gods name through them along with the truth of life and for that I’m really grateful.

Shunned podcast on UA-cam of former witnesses being shunned. Heartbreaking as it is to hear the many many accounts and how they are ostracized by their own parents and siblings. This is not a loving organisation by any means
@Carl Troke so Carla you think it's heartbreaking to follow what the Bible says at 1st Corinthians 5 1 through 13? It says to remove and unrepentant congregation , otherwise a small lump and ferment the whole lump, in other words contaminate the rest of the congregation. The Bible says we have to keep the congregation clean.. That's what the Bible says to remove them. Unlike many churches that will excommunicate you and not allow you to come back to the church, we allow the individual to sit in the Kingdom Hall and listen to all the meetings and work with the elders to repent of what he's done wrong. I have a disfellowshipped son he's 41 years old and he lives at home with me because he lost his job. So I will not throw him out in the street it would not be loving. So you see what you say is not true.
No and they also claim to directly communicate with god and got multiple predictions of the end of the world wrong🤣 a true religion shouldn’t rely on gods name when it’s missing in 27 books of the New Testament and especially if the religion has a governing body and relies on telling people to go to a website or even read the book because they know they have changed the bible just like Satan changes things to lure people, and also if the religion gets multiple prophecies wrong. It’s just way too much nonsense...

Christians are those who accept the teachings of the Bible and who, through the definition of the historic undivided Church, give assent to the Creed which includes the Holy Trinity, Divinity of Jesus the Christ, baptism in the Name of the Holy Trinity (Mtt. 28 !), etc. They use the 27 books of the Bible that have been accepted by the historic undivided Church. Church Fathers like Origen of Alexandria (c 185 to 254 C.E.) and the Easter Letter of Athanasius Bishop of Alexandria ( 367 C.E.), listed those same 27 books that we use today. Without any accepted Biblical scholars the J.W. organization has rewritten and reinterpreted the Scriptures in such a way that no Biblical Scholar (a person prepared in the original languages of Koine Greek, Aramaic and Hebrew who has shown to have studied the Scriptures in his educational field and has published his research for the critique of other scholars) can accept many of its teachings. J.W.s blithely accept the teachings (many times changing with "new light") of an organization that lacks Biblical scholarship that Christian churches would NEVER presume to do. Even the insistence on the name Jehovah shows this lack of true Biblical scholarship. The tetragrammaton was thought to be pronounced as "Jehovah" in the Renaissance and Reformation periods, Biblical scholarship beginning in the 19th century recovered the real pronunciation as YAHWEH. No one needs to apologize for referring to groups who do not accept the Creedal statements of the ancient and undivided Church as non-Christians. There are groups I met in Africa that worship one god and claim that Jesus was one of their prophets and that doesn't make them a Christian church. Where could I find a Kingdom Hall in 1800? Or in 1700? Or in 1400? Or in 1100? Or in 800? Or in 500? I could go on. Didn't Jesus promise to NEVER abandon His Church (Mtt.28: 20)? Yet believers in the Gospel were abandoned to false teaching until Charles Russell founded his Bible Student movement ? Was the Bible really mistranslated until 1950 when the organization, without a single Scripture scholar, changed many passages to suit their beliefs? If you choose to follow the J.W. organization, that's your business. Don't fault Christians for maintaining the Christian Faith of 2,000 years with history and the Holy Spirit to back it up.
Funny...As if "Cancel culture (also known as call-out culture) describes a form of boycott in which someone who has performed an act that is considered a violation of today's social justice norms, even if those acts occurred very long ago, is thrust out of social or professional circles - either online on social media or in the real" -Wikipedia What world do you live in?

Its nothing but simple conditioning & mind control . Most JN (jah nutnesses) are wonderful people but the cult mentality destroys their sense of self worth & fosters toxic relationships within the org. To make matter worse, most of the creepy elders are barely educated who are given power to pontificate over the local congregation & 1/2 of them abuse their authority.

So even though someone may not be receptive we do not lose hope or call them goats. We love them and we try to help them.

Yep 100% cult. If anyone is reading this and is interested, visit www.jwfacts.com/ and if you like compare it to their website. The inconsistencies and thought control will be immediately obvious.
Aaron Cooper And what makes you believe that they are a cult? Because all cults have 3 things in common. But before I tell you what they are, I will let you know that my mom and sister are part of that religion. And me myself, am ok with that religion. Although, yet to this day I refuse to get fully involved with them because of my own personal reasons. Anyhow, these are what all cults have in common. 1. A leader that calls “All” the shots, and tricks his/hers followers into believing he/she has some kind of power. Or that he/she is god, or has a very strong connection to god. 2. A cult forces there followers into Isolation. Making them all stay in one place, close to the leader of the cult. Also they don’t allow there new followers to Socialize with anybody who is not part of the cult. 3. A cult gets there followers to give up all there money to the cult, or to have the follower give them a very high percentage of what they makes. Now all of these 3 examples don’t have anything to do with the Jehovah Witnesses. (1) They don’t have a leader, and there is no one claiming they are god, or speak to god directly. (2) All the followers have there freedom and are not Isolated. They can work whatever job they want, and they can talk with who ever they want. You probably walk pass a member today but didn’t notice because the act and look like everybody else. (3) No one is taking there money, they have the choice to donate money. Me for one, never donated money, and no one has ever asked me to. You probably wouldn’t even know where to donate unless you were looking for the donate box.

Nice Guy you are actually redefining a cult in order to avoid admitting that Jehovah’s Witnesses are in fact a cult. A personality cult like Jehovah’s Witnesses doesn’t have one leader that calls the shots but rather a group of leaders that calls the shots and makes extraordinary claims for themselves. The governing body who are in fact the leaders of Jehovah’s Witnesses do make extraordinary claims for themselves. They claim that in 1919 God chose them as his soul channel of communication with humanity. Jehovah’s Witnesses do in fact socially isolate their members from the outside world and repeatedly tell them not to have unnecessary contact with outside members and not to form friendships with non-witnesses. Not all cults go into isolation nor do they require all of their members to be in the same place. Look at Scientology or the Monies or the worldwide Church of God or in this case Jehovah’s Witnesses. The goal is to isolate them from outside influences and to limit their contact with nonmembers to avoid exposing them to potential information that could sway their thinking. Jehovah’s Witnesses cannot actually have any job they want as there are several jobs that involve interactions with other religious denominations and thus they are precluded from having those positions as well as any position that would put them in contact with the military. The idea that a cult has to take peoples money in order to be defined as a cult is simply false. The goal of the leadership could be money power authority or the leadership may simply be delusional and actually believe what they’re teaching but monetary acquisition is not a prerequisite of a cult. Jehovah’s Witnesses are a cult. They use shunning or disfellowshipping as they call it to keep people from leaving the organization and to keep them enslaved. A Jehovah’s Witness who raises objections to some of the teachings or policies of the organization will be branded and apostate and they will be slandered and their friends and family will be told to cut ties with them. Any organization that punishes you with predatory isolation and family estrangement for questioning what they teach is a cult.
Bob I’ll be very interested to hear your definition of a cult seeing as you as well as nice guy Seem to be deliberately redefining the term in order to avoid admitting that Jehovah’s Witnesses are in fact a cult
Is there a way I can join? Or find a group near me to talk to in NC. I agree with so many of your values. If I never got a blood transfusion I would’ve never had a spinal fusion at 16 by my corrupt and evil doctor. My parents are extreme sinners and divorced. They’ve ruined my childhood and life by being addicted to drugs, greed, gluttony. I have to live with my mother until I can get the rods removed, as they’ve caused me extreme pain. But she constantly blames me for the surgery and wasting her money. All I want is a family to just eat and talk to that aren’t sinners. I feel the world is so corrupt, I need to find like minded individuals. I agree with not celebrating many gluttonous and harmful holidays such as Christmas and birthdays. Just makes sense, every day is a holiday and gift from god, why must we bring pride and attention to ourselves so much. I like that they don’t support war either, jw just makes so much sense to me.

Had them knock at my door once. I looked out to see 2 women in their 50’s and one girl who was about 25 and absolutely model material. I’ll admit it made open the door to see what was up. As soon as I did the younger girl stepped back and the 2 other ladies stepped in front of her and started their pitch. I almost called them out on it. Just said no thanks.
Those sound like Mormon women preachers. They use a tactic of bringing about pretty young girls to lure people in. Mormon men are the same. They have these young charismatic Mormon men who try to lure people in, that’s how my mom converted really fast. I was like how did she joined their religion really fast? When JW would teach she didn’t even bother. Jehovah’s witnesses typically are elderly women and couples and their daughter or son possibly. They don’t try to lure people in. For them, if you are interested in the truth they teach you further, if you don’t then usually they stop. But they are still doing Gods will and fulfilling Mathew 24:14.
At what point do we get to live and enjoy life, if you are constantly knocking on doors telling people how to live life? God made us to enjoy life, to seek pleasure in life, and to worship Him every step of the way. If we worship Him without taking steps first, we will get nowhere.
Matthew 28:19-20.. Jesus approached and spoke to them, saying: “All authority has been given me in heaven and on the earth.+ 19 Go, therefore, and make disciples of people of all the nations,+ baptizing them+ in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you.+ And look!

In the midst of the throne* and around the throne were four living creatures+ that were full of eyes in front and behind. 7 The first living creature was like a lion,+ and the second living creature was like a young bull,+ and the third living creature+ had a face like a man’s, and the fourth living creature+ was like a flying eagle.+ 8 As for the four living creatures, each one of them had six wings; they were full of eyes all around and underneath.+ And continuously, day and night, they say: “Holy, holy, holy is Jehovah*+ God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is coming.”+ 9 Whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanksgiving to the One seated on the throne, the One who lives forever and ever,+ 10 the 24 elders+ fall down before the One seated on the throne and worship the One who lives forever and ever, and they cast their crowns before the throne, saying: 11 “You are worthy, Jehovah* our God, to receive the glory+ and the honor+ and the power,+ because you created all things,+ and because of your will they came into existence and were created.”
God has a unique plan for each person, his way is good, he comes to give life and life more abundantly.

Pretty legalistic.

We reep what we sow, we give to the poor, God repays us with good things that suit us. He comes first in everything. As for JW keeping a journal on the time spent out and about.... what happens when they don't perform as other members of the watchtower? Are they forced to do this, are they punished if they don't? Are they working for God or man?
About the meaning of "the Son of God" - in Israel, the son of a healer was a healer, the son of a prophet was a prophet, the son of a fisherman was a fisherman (Zebedee was a fisherman and his sons were fishermen, too), the son of a priest was a priest, the son of a carpenter was a carpenter, etc. Therefore, when Jesus said He was the Son of God before the Sanhedrin, the Sanhedrin regarded the claim as blasphemy. When Peter told Jesus he thought Jesus was the Son of the living God, what did Jesus say to Peter? That Peter figured that out with his human logic or reasoning? No, it was God who revealed it to Peter. It was impossible for Peter to grasp that with his human reasoning. In the same sense, the apostle John says it amounts to the conquest of this world to believe that Jesus is the Son of God. We should accept and understand the expression "the Son of God" as those in Israel in the first century understood it - that by saying He was the Son of God, Jesus equated Himself with His Father in divine nature. The words of God should not be interpreted with human logic or reasoning. Consider the example of Psalm 2:7 - "You are my Son, Today I became your Father." By human logic, this verse means that the Son was created by the Father. But by divine logic, this is the prophecy about the resurrection of Jesus from the dead - compare with Acts 13:32-34. We should be careful not to subject the words of God to narrow boundaries of human reasoning. God bless.
I tried so hard to study Jehovah witness but I wasn't born into it and I found it made me feel quilty nomadder what I did..I love them and I always will...it was my own falure..I was on drugs first of all.. second I couldn't just give up all the holidays and third of all I didn't agree with certain things like the no blood transfusion..it says don't drink blood, transfusion is threw the vein.i feel if you aren't born into it, it's very hard..But I have all the respect in the world for the jehovah witnesses also and I truly miss them.
You are kind , and humble in your word's. Religion sometimes is not for everybody, and I respect that very maturely you admitted that it wasn't for you. It's nice to see people say kind words like that and acknowledge that there are good witnesses just like in any religion you're going to have good or bad. Much respect to you for being honest.
Polite is one thing, however they have a strict shunning policy of former baptised members if those members choose not to return to the religion. People won’t talk to their own family ever again unless they return. It’s happened in my family and is widespread in the countries where Jehovah’s witnesses are present
@@justmadeit2 I'm not trying to start an argument here but i just wanna point out that we do this for a good reason. If a person in the congregation unrepentantly practices gross sin, God requires that he be disfellowshiped. If we remain loyal to God and to the congregation by not speaking to the disfellowshipped person, the wrongdoer may in time take a lesson from that, repent and be reinstated in the congregation. It is the disfellowshiped person who has made problems for himself and for his relative.
@@justmadeit2 You also have policies of strict shunning. Take for instance membership in a private club. The club has its rules and requirements. If a member refuses to follow those rules and requirements, the club will oftentimes "disfellowship" or revoke their membership from the club. That person will also not be reinstated as a member in good standing of that club until they learn and agree to follow the rules. The same applies to society in general. If a person commits a serious crime such as theft, fraud or an act of violence, they are thrown into a 6ft. by 6ft. cell and not permitted visitors and normal association for what can amount to several years or more. Why are they shunned this way? Because society is trying to correct their conduct. The same principle applies!
@@Pac-Man.. Can you explain where and why higher education has taught mankind to live together in peace? Bible teachings do not produce nuclear weapons, rockets, missiles, bullets or guns nor do they tolerate hatred towards one's fellow man. While you get your so called "higher education" from this or that university and learn to make nuclear weapons, bombs, missiles, etc., and hate and fight with one another, we, who attend the university of Jehovah, have learned to love our fellow man and live together united under a bond of love in every nation while war and hatred break out among "higher educated" people all around us. So even with your "higher" education, you have not yet learned to live in peace, but Jehovah's Witnesses have! So tell me please, WHO really has the higher education???
Aleksi Jaakkola as a jehovah witness I think you are mistaken we do Use And read the new world translation and teach with it but if you see on our website and app we always provide other versions of the Bible such as the King James Version and make it available, so anyone who is reading a scripture can see each scripture has the same meanings in every version of the Bible.

Listen , When my mother forced me into this cult I was absolutely miserable . Starting from age 7 up until I was around 13 I had about enough ... I was always a very smart girl to know whatever she was trying to get me involved with was PURE EVIL . It got the point where I refused to be part of the occult or even participate . so she took it into her hands to ask the elders at the Kingdom Hall for advice and their advice was to throw me in a group home . That’s exactly what she did .... gave me up like I meant absolutely nothing to her and I was only 14/15 at that ..... A KID . I was Very lost very confused very hurt and I can never forgive her for destroying me leaving me feel so unloved and abandoned . Let me just say , this cult is extremely evil , manipulative, they destroy family’s , and do nothing but brainwash people. u become a slave mentality and physically and it’s sad that people don’t even realize it too. From experiencing the things I’ve experienced and seeing the things I’ve seen and doing the research I’ve been doing They hold a lot of dark secrets . I’m 22 right now happier then ever not to be part of there “ organization “ . I’m glad I’m free and I pray for my mother every day to god hoping for her to finally WAKE UP .
Oh my -that is inexcusible! I am so sorry that you went through all that & that your mama is a slave to that cult. Truly I am so happy that you are free from that & I am lifting you & your mother up in prayer. You are an inspiration to many. Be blessed always!!!
I’ve never experienced the things you did and I had many JW associations. I’m sorry to hear what happened to you. But I don’t agree with your statements on calling the organization evil. I experienced nothing not love and genuine warm hearted Christian brothers. I felt like family there. My first opposers to all this were my own family members which at first was hard for me to understand why. I asked myself how could my own family become so cold and hostile to me for learning the truth and sharing it with them? They were Catholics btw.
You think this small group is the only one hated? Who told you that, an elder? True Christians are hated cause we follow Jesus. Does the elder want you to think jw's are the only ones hated(since your supposed to believe everything the elder says)since your the only ones and the only true religion? You've been lied to again. Jesus said "everyone will hate you because you are my followers. But the one who endures to the end will be saved". Mark 13:13. I'm not or ever will be a jw, i don't have a new world translation. What does it say in Mark 13:13? I'm trying to prove a point. Comment back to me, jw's are notoriously known for replacing Jesus's name for Jehovah's name. That's just one of many reasons your hated, for replacing the truth for a lie, and then spreading those lies. Even nonjws know it's not the truth and their lost in the world too, but there you are, knocking. Another reason is for waking people up on Saturday morning, when people just wanna be home, relaxing. Believe me there are are many many more reasons why jw's are so hated.

“The Jews, therefore, said unto him, ‘Thou art not yet fifty years old, and Abraham hast thou seen?’ Jesus said to them, ‘Verily, verily, I say to you, before Abraham’s coming - I am.’” (John 8:57-58, YLT) The conversation’s context simply points to the Jews’ questioning of Jesus’ pre-existence before Abraham’s… *not* his identifying himself as their own God and his own heavenly Father. In any case, Jesus’ heavenly Father self-designating Himself as “ʼEh·yehʹ ʼAsherʹ ʼEh·yehʹ” in Exodus 3:14-329 years *after* Abraham’s death-should be syntactically translated.

Jesus was speaking in Greek. Translators translated it that way - a total mis-translation into the English language (and mis-use of the English language). Read on. Jesus STATED he was "God's son".
Ron Morales Jesus claimed many things to the Jews before finally saying He was the I Am, such as; coming from Heaven, God honoring Him and being a co-Witness with Him. If they wanted a reason to stone him, they had it. Also, the KJV 1611 is not the only rendering of the literal “I am that I Am” and contextually it makes perfect sense in light of who God reveals Himself to be as scripture unfolds. The only bible that I know that misapplies terms and muddies up the context of certain passages is the New World Translation. If you even want to call it a translation.

@Jack TGS We are the only religion complying with the command of Jesus to..." go therefore, and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and if the Son, and of the holy spirit . Teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you." We are the only ones doing the global preaching work! We can be found in 240 lands and territories. Last year in our ministry a combined total of over two billion, yes BILLION hours were spent in some form of the ministry. Whether from house to house, cart witnessing, telephone ,letter-writing ,and publicly. Last year in 2018 281,744 became disciples of Jesus Christ and worshippers of his Father Jehovah God...
@@miahmoogray8507 Still, Jesus still said we can only be saved through faith in Jesus and what he did for us on the cross! No amount of good works will get you into heaven or paradise. As the scripture says believe in me and you will be saved. Begotten does not mean created, that is a mis-translation of the word monogenes which mean "One of a kind" or "one and only" Even the much older 1611 KJV bible mentions multiple times that God is triune being. One other thing, how can you explain Jesus saying "I am in the Father, as the Father is in me" if Jesus isn't God in the flesh?

Hello, I recently purchased three t-shirts for my grandson they have dinosaurs on them but the dinosaurs also are wearing Santa hats and there are Christmas trees and candy canes on the shirts as well. My grandson is 3 years old and being raised by his grandmother. She is a Jehovah Witness and has indicated that she cannot allow my grandson to wear anything that may be construed as Christmas themed. I'm just wondering if this would be the case with my grandson? I'm not looking to cause trouble I just am curious what the rules are. Thanks, Robert H.
This is basically it summed up You can only worship Jehovah Anything not related to Jehovah will be not allowed You must be devoted to Jehovah(cannot do anything else just jehovah Cant get a degree you have to spend all your time on Jehovah) Its basically just control and jehovah which is pretty sad
My suggestion is to do a little research on Christmas and its origins. Just google search it. When you learn its origins, you may never want to allow your grandson to wear anything construed as Christmas themed either because its origins involved drunkeness, sexual orgies including with children, worship of pagan gods and goddesses, worship of the sun god Saturnalia, etc. The Roman church incorporated that pagan celebration into the Roman church in order to attract the pagans into their form of "christianity".
@@stickcheck3045 "its origins involved drunkeness, sexual orgies including with children, worship of pagan gods and goddesses" Complete and utter nonsense! Christmas is simply the mid-winter festival to welcome the passing of the solstice. Spouting lies about it, as you did, shows how brainwashed you are.
It is difficult to follow Jesus' teachings in a world where SATAN is throwing temptations at you 24/7..Those who can't survive, always blame the religion rather than their own weaknesses.. So most all churches preach what makes the congregations happy and keeps them coming back.. How many religions follow 1 Corinthians 5-11? It's a REQUIREMENT from Jesus.. Failing to follow it makes a congregation guilty of not following Jesus' teachings and therefore UNCLEAN.. J W's do follow that teaching per Jesus' requirement, yet they are BASHED and DEMEANED for doing it by those who think they're smarter than Jesus.. They say it's CRUEL. Therefore, they are saying Jesus is CRUEL because he is the one who required it be followed.. Preachers LIE to the people about Heaven, Hell, and even tell them the end could come at any moment..The end won't come until all prophecy has been fulfilled.. Babylon the Great hasn't been destroyed..After it is destroyed, the Beast rules the earth for 1 hour (42.6) years.. No preacher will ever tell you that because they're Scripturally illiterate.. Heaven is a spiritual realm.. There is nothing physical in Heaven,. Those who go to Heaven, go as spirits to rule with Christ over the EARTH.. There is a RESURRECTION of the DEAD.. They do not go to Heaven upon death.. If they did, there would be no need for the resurrection. Lazarus died and didn't go to Heaven.. He was resurrected from the grave. He came out of the grave at Jesus' command. He didn't come down from Heaven.. They took the name Jehovah out of the King James bible because they said it shouldn't be there because there was no "J" in the Hebrew text... But, didn't take Jacob, Joshua, Jeremiah, Job and all the others whose names start with "J" that are in the Hebrew texts.. The word JEHOVAH makes Satan shudder.... The only way to tell if you're in the right religion is to see if they follow Jesus' command at 1 Corinthians 5 - 11 along with all his other teachings.. If not, you better run as fast as you can from that religion, unless you have no desire to follow them yourselves either.
@@classickruzer1 it's a problem, there are some predators, some pedophils in these congregations but your people hide them from justice and now here you speak about honnesty ?!!! Really ? (take a look on google about "JW A Secret Database of Child Abuse"). Again, no word such "Jehovah" makes satan shudder, it's just in your mind! your behaviour maybe could but definitely not a word !!!! A lot of former JW give their testimony on youtube and through books, and all these testimonies tell an only thing : "they escape from hell !" .......
@@stromaeg1427 FYI- There are pedophiles and predators in SCHOOLS, BOY SCOUTS, GIRL SCOUTS, BAPTISTS CHURCHES and EVERY OTHER structured organization.. Oh, but where are all you BASHERS demeaning and attacking them.. YOU AREN'T because you HATE Jehovah.. You can't live up to the standards Jesus set and feel better about yourselves by blaming the religious organization that does follow his teachings ..Every one of these former J W's have committed SERIOUS SINS that got them disfellowshipped as 1 Corinthians 5 - 11 instructs, per Jesus' teachings All you who want to follow your own rules justify demeaning the J W's because it makes you feel good about yourselves. You think you're smarter than Jesus.. . Your religions let you do anything you want and you never get counseled or shunned by the others in the church.. You say it's an act of HATE .. Jesus says it's an act of LOVE.. Oh, sorry, I forgot, you're smarter than he is..
Stromae -- Oh, but why was the names Joshua, Jacob, Jeremiah, Job not taken out of the K J V???? You can't answer that can you.. And if you had any Scriptural knowledge at all, you'd know that SATAN does shudder at the name JEHOVAH..
The only religious group in the world that sought to usurp the authority of the heavenly Father...see Acts 1:7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. They do not know how many times the destruction of the world is foretold
@Lexi-Marie Buck disfellowshipped telling lies. Is that the same with members about OTHER religions like Catholicism and non-Catholic groups who came out of their churches because their priests are pedophiles MUCH as some of your elders and members are pedophiles too? I guess that "lie" applies to OTHER groups since your group has perfect members, no? I guess others who came out of your religious Babylon disagree. www.silentlambs.org I'm not an Atheist, I'm Messianic and I believe in YAHOVAH and Yeshua His Son, but you see, even Yeshua didn't cover up and tolerated the SINS & CORRUPTION of the existing religion of His Day, and the Temple He usually went on to read every Sabbath (NOT PAGAN Sunday Luke 4:16) when He sees something wrong in them. They were HIS OWN PEOPLE (John 1:11) but they did not like Him because He CONFRONTED them and EXPOSED them for their sins, especially the corruption of their own priests and you can read how He denounced the pharisees on Matthew 23 by calling them FOOLS! SNAKES! and Brood of Vipers. They were HIS own people in the religion HIS own family grew up with. Not a pagan belief, not the religion of the Romans or Babylonians, but The Jewish faith. Still, He didn't turned a blind eye to their corruption UNLIKE your Society who discourages their abused members NOT to go to the police for help whenever they've suffered SEXUAL abuse from the hands of other members OR elders. And this is what you call a LIE? The "lies" of members that your elders like modern day pharisees, have abused? ua-cam.com/video/RlRHaO0y4ro/v-deo.html You are NO different from the pharisees who called Yeshua OR Jesus before a DECEIVER for telling the painful TRUTH about them. (Matthew 27:63) I remember a time when I knew a JW elder once here in the Philippines who told Me to keep My mouth shut and to "pretend to be blind" if I see atrocities in the society. Not surprising why I refused to be part of that religion because of their twisted sense of justice and I have a strong sense of justice as one who was once abused by a Catholic priest. How would you feel if YOU have experienced abuse by your own elders like us? 😊 There are good people among JW's no doubt, as there are good in EVERY religion including Buddhism, but this doesn't deny the fact that most of them are hiding skeletons in their closets. You hypocrites. Learn to clean up your own mess before cleaning others. ---------------- Cry aloud, spare not, lift up your voice like a trumpet, AND SHOW MY PEOPLE their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. Isaiah 58:1 (UKJV)
I've been doing Bible Studies for the past several months and I'm loving it. Its been the happiest times and challenging as Satan is trying his best to make me stop my studies. I'm still learning about the Religion but so far from what I've observed they're very normal people who are very misunderstood and theres a lot of false accusations made about JW so before you believe any gossip or news you shouldn't judge a book by its cover and do your own personal investigation if you're genuinely curious...that's what I've done. They never pressured me in anyway and you can ask a million questions and they'll respectfully and patiently answer you. Do your research and they encourage that. I admire there dedicated research and I love how seriously they take the word of God and want to share it. If theres good news, it's meant to be shared.
I grew up in the kingdom Hall very good people of course there is bad in all religions but they are obedient to the word been studying different religions.it is difficult to know which is the right one but I am thinking about studying with witnesses again.psamls 83:18 that men may know that Jehovah is the most high over the heavens and the Earth!
Jesus Christ calls Himself the Alpha and Omega the beginning and the end . You will find that in Revelation chapters 1,21,22 and oddly enough Jehovah of the old testament calls himself the very same. You need to be born again ,why? look up Gen 5:1-3 and see what we are created in the image of. Do some serious research on the Jehovah's witnesses as a group and see why the mainline churches do not include them as anything other than a cult of Christianity. Catholics have a problem with priests who molest children , find out how the JW's address sexual abuse in the church. It will open your eyes . May the blessings of the Lord Jesus Christ be on you and I pray the Holy Spirit will guide you into truth. Understanding or believing in the trinity is a non event , what counts is the relationship between you and the Lord Jesus Christ.
@@bobloblawb2593 I think you are right about the holy spirit will lead you.there most probably been molesters in all religions but I can tell you this I'm not a member of JW church but have family that is Jehovah is God's true name Psalms 83:18 and almost 7000 times in the Bible before they started talking it out the KJ started putting it back on of you read the last verses of Revelations it says add nothing to or take nothing away from the scroll. I have heard a lot of people say things about witnesses that are simply untrue Jesus Will be at the right hand side of the father the Bible says.everybody thinks their religion is right.i know you can take a KJ and compare to the NWT and it says the same thing it doesn't take God's name out.
@@joeyrogers8193 Psalm 111:9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name. You need to see that the word Jehovah is a translation of the word the Jews used as there was no pronunciation available. You are correct in the occurrence of the title Jehovah , however the entire new testament is dedicated to what Jesus Christ has done for us to get us closer to God. ( YHWH ) Man has concocted YHWH to be Jehovah as we for some reason have to have a name. Strange that Jesus in Rev 22:13 calls himself the beginning and the end , the Alpha and Omega. How could this be when you say God created Him?
@@DjMakinetor Yes, all religions are religions created by humans. All the new American fundamentalist religions of the 19th century (Adventist, Jehovism, Mormonism ...) are the false prophets of modern times. All these new “religions” cut themselves off from institutionalized churches and thus became more or less sectarian movements. All these new "churches" are from Millerism. This new current of thought arises from the message of William Miller, who was notably the first to predict the return of Christ for 1844. Influenced by this new movement, Russel will do the same by announcing the return of Christ for 1874. Then the dates (false predictions) will follow each other as they fail. Mormonism, Jehovism, and Adventism all appeared in North America (the New World), they all came in the late 19th century, all settled in the Northeastern United States. (New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan). Each of them was born from the providence of a man. Latter-day Saints (16 million followers) founder Joseph Smith, Jehovah's Witnesses (8 million followers) founder Charles Taze Russell, Seventh-day Adventists, (20 million followers) founder Joseph Bates. All these American movements announce "the moment is near", all proselytize, all demonize the world, all claim to have the truth, all have their world headquarters in the USA, and to top it off, all have a governing body exclusively made Americans. All these movements are in fact the product of an era, nothing more. Time will continue to pass with its vicissitudes without worrying about these small American movements which ultimately represent nothing on a global scale.
They are not preaching because they want you to be saved, they are doing it to score points from God. With that kind of mindset, you are missing out on what Christianity is really all about.
Watch your governing body member Tony Morris being caught at a licquor store at 11 am on a Sunday morning, buying lots of the devil´s juice. You are being fooled !!!! ua-cam.com/video/HR4oBqrQ1UY/v-deo.html
The proper way to say "jehovah" is to break it down into seven syllables and bray like a donkey. Jehovah represents the summer solstice in the constellation Cancer. This is the same constellation where we find the ass and her foal (stars) that Jesus (solar) rode into the Jerusalem of the free (summer solstice). The Jerusalem of the handmaid/slave is the winter solstice. Paul reminds us in Galatians 4 that Abraham, his two wives, two sons, and the two Jerusalems are ALLEGORICAL. Jehovah is addressed as Adoni (Ad - Oni) in jewish worship. Adoni is derived from the Pagan Adonis.
Look into masonry. You will see the truth of watchtower. The old witnesses met at Mason halls. The Mason's put Jehovah in an unholy Trinity. Jah, baal, Osiris. They believe him to be Satan! Jabolyn. You tell people to do their research, maybe you should. Pass the bread and wine and say, nope Jesus I don't need you, I will earn my way by pretend preaching
satan believe that Jesus is the son of God too, that intellectual knowledge won't save you, You need to believe who He is, Jesus is God in the flesh, He is God. He is not Michael the arc angel, as satan want you to believe.
Matthew 1:19 she gave birth to a son so-called Jesus and he came to save HIS people from there sins. -- now(HIS) is singler possessive meaning 1 type of people. Jesus was a jew from Judah so he came for the jew

Efrain Rivera Junior And my family is saying they are focusing more on “the end of this system of things” like it is right around the corner. Trying to rekindle any dying embers. They bring up Noah* for those that say we have been preaching the same message for years and nothing has come.
@@hmmnope9231 - What has Moses have to do with this? I hate it when J-Dubs bring in Moses. Moses was imperfect but his message wasn't. Moses didn't have to go up to Mount Sinai every few years to come down with new commandments because there was "new light".

@@hmmnope9231 - You know that the Watchtower later said that people did actually see rain before Noah's day. They just keep changing their version of the story and J-Dubs can't keep up.
Efrain Rivera Junior I did not! Thank you for sharing! I left the religion 6 years ago and haven’t done my own research to prove or disprove the bible’s teachings, as it would hurt my family. And not coming to my own conclusions so soon has left the door open for me to keep asking questions about things I find in videos like this or John Cedars, DarkMatter2525, and Telltale. I have to watch the video and form their question like my questions as if they watch the video they may get caught up on one small detail and that taints how they view the question. I have found that talking about the organization is a lost cause, as they will go along with it until the organization changes the bible, the bible teachings... So me saying all these little changes don’t bother you at all? When they raise red flags for me. But they say they follow Jehovah not man, it’s all very hard to wrap my head around.
JWs "truth"? "Jehovah's Witnesses, in their eagerness for Jesus' second coming, *have suggested dates that turned out to be incorrect."* Awake 1993 Mar 22 page4 *Jehovah’s Witnesses have had wrong expectations about when the end would come.* Jan 1, 2013 Watchtower "Does this admission of making mistakes stamp them [Jehovah's Witnesses] as false prophets? Not at all, for false prophets do not admit to making mistakes." Watchtower, Nov. 1, 1972, page 644 - in brackets added Admitting to making false prophecies doesn't magically change them, they are still Bible defined false prophecies (Deut 18:2-0-22) Very poor reasoning, probably why JWs "suggested dates" and went beyond scripture. "suggested dates, wrong expectations" ARE false prophecies. God's channel of communications, his voice on earth, God's mouthpiece, JWs? Nope just a false religion!

We know the truth now thru the Word of God and the help of the Holy Spirit..see John 16:15,16..He the Holy Spirit is the 'revealer of truth..and yes,Jesus referred to the Holy Spirit as'He' indicating 'PERSONHOOD '..and not an 'active force ' as is falsely taught by the Jehovah's witnesses...

This video neglects to inform the viewer that Jehovah’s Witnesses can be disfellowshipped which involves being cut off by every member of the church including their friends and family if they choose to get a blood transfusion. It also neglected to highlight the controversial issues surrounding their belief in covering up the sexual abuse of children and not reporting it to police. They also didn’t talk about the fact that disfellowshiping Is used as blackmail to keep people from speaking out about disagreements they have with the beliefs or policies, it is also used to silence those who try to come forward about sexual abuse.
Azay Deelay If you haven’t heard of the mass cover-up of child sex abuse within the Jehovah’s Witnesses then you haven’t been paying attention to the news. I recommend you look into the Australian royal commission and the findings there as far as Jehovah’s Witnesses. Also some of the child sex abusers are elders and circuit overseer‘s so you can call them fake witnesses all you want but these are people who were supposedly selected by Holy Spirit to be in those positions.

For the Father himself has affection for you, because you have had affection for me+ and have believed that I came as God’s representative.+ 28 I came as the Father’s representative and have come into the world. Now I am leaving the world and am going to the Father.”+

That simply means they are on ONE ACCORD. Adam and Eve became one flesh. Still though, they are two different people not literally one person. Also... salvation is not dependent on believing Jesus and the Father are one person. However we must believe Jesus is the Son of God. Not the Father.

That’s actually not tru that’s a different religion. Jehovah Witnesses are not allowed to have sex and have kids before marriage. When you are married you are allowed to.
Yeah, not allowed to have children if they stay at Bethel. You know what that means. Some will secretly get abortions or try to hide pregnancy even to the point of killing the child when birthed. It is human nature when you put unhuman restrictions on people. How sad.

Why did Jesus come to us on earth.? To save us or snatch us from the kingdom of darkness (of this world) Colossians 1:13. The only way is by calling on Jesus. Jesus said Come to me all you who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. The watchtower won’t allow people come to Jesus?Paul persecuted those who were calling on the name of the Lord Jesus and he then met Jesus and called on Jesus and receiving his free gift of forgiveness and salvation.Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord Jesus will be given the free gift of forgiveness Romans 10:9-13.

Back in the early 90s I was living on the top floor of an apartment building in Queens New York City. On a hot humid Saturday morning in August my doorbell rang. When I opened the door there was a JW women with her son who about 5 years old. The poor kid was wearing a suit and carrying a heavy suitcase. The mother asked me what do I think the biggest problem in the world is today. I looked at that poor child and the first thing that came out of my mouth was child abuse. I got the kid some cold water. I told the mother your poor child is sweating like crazy. You need to get him hydrated and a house with air conditioning. If you do not leave this building immediately I will call the police on you for child abuse. She thanked me and did leave. 30 years later I still regret not calling the police on that woman.
Two of them came to my door. One of them was so nasty to me because I was Baptist. Another girl was with her who stood behind her, making terrible faces at me. I grew up going to church, and I am religious. I would never try to force my religion on them. Finally, she asked me if she should come back with my husband was here! I said oh no, he won’t even talk to you he’ll turn the hose on you! And then they left. Also, a lot of the things that are prohibited only affect children like Easter bunny, tooth fairy, Santa, birthdays, etc.

Calling something out as a lie is not a form of persecution. Persecution is when you use media and construct laws to disrupt people’s lives. Those tactics usually encourage others to attack you socially and even physically. No one has said Jehovah’s Witnesses cannot drink from this water fountain and cannot eat at this restaurant. No one has used media to say, these people are bad and we will show only them doing bad things. If Jehovah’s Witnesses never use social media they’d never know. They are allowed to go about their lives and preach. That’s not persecution.
@@arrellehnisrael8229 PERSECUTION is when others attack an individual or group when their beliefs are different from mainstream.

And there are vast amounts of persecution all throughout social media outlets and even some governments ... describing these people as "bad". Whether J W's use social media or not, doesn't absolve the fact that they're not persecuted. What do you think you're doing? J W's are persecuted more than ISIS, Catholics, Baptists, Buddhists, Hindus, and Islamists.. And I doubt that you nor all these other persecutors even know that in 2019 the most religious sexual abuse cases were the 1, Catholics..2.Southern Baptists..3.United Methodists .... but for some reason, it's always the J W's that everyone points their little sticky fingers at. In fact a study showed that the amount of sexual abuse within the J W's organization was no more than found in any other organization other than the aforementioned.. All sexual abuse is terrible, but to chastise one and ignore all the others is persecution as well. So you have a lot to learn..I hope you're at a young age and your ignorance is attributed to just that, rather than to the lies and propaganda you've heard throughout a longer lifespan. God teaches love, not the hateful and intimidating manner found in your posts. If you claim to be a Christian, you are required to behave as one, otherwise, you're no more than just another hypocrite...

jj.93 Run! Run far away! I left at 38 years old and lost all my family and friends because they’re JWs. The JWs frown upon relationships with outsiders who they call “worldly”. Thus all your friends end up being JWs and when you leave they’ll stop taking to you because you become worst than a “worldly” person. Another thing, the Watchtower Organization will take up all your time with many activities designed to keep you inside and when you leave you’ll see that you’ve spent years working for free for the advancement of the organization and you have nothing. No skills, no training, no nothing. It’s basically indentured servitude. Run away or pay the price your choice.
Jace Johnson It sounds really nice when you put it that way, but is not true isn’t? People don’t leave because of having a bad heart, no one can read hearts but Jehovah God. Many people leave because they find their trust is betrayed by the watchtower organization. A person should be realistic about the ability of the Watchtower Witness Organization to interpret the Scriptures. To date there has been a proven time prophecy failure rate of 100%. The Watchtower Witness Organization used Bible prophecy to explain that the following dates were of significance: 1780, 1799, 1829, 1844, 1846, 1872, 1874, 1875, 1878, 1880, 1881, 1891, 1906, 1910, 1915, 1920, 1921, 1925, 1935 and 1975. Every single one of these interpretations is now admitted as wrong. Even 1914, 1918 and 1919 were not fulfilled as expected and subsequently reinterpreted after the event. 1918 now meaningless as is 1935. This does not inspire confidence that Holy Spirit guides Watchtower Witness Organization Bible interpretations, or that current understanding of 1914 is correct.
Jace Johnson Thank you for replying, but I have to ask are you sure? Are you sure that the 40,000 to 100,000 people who get kicked out of the watchtower organization every year is because they’re doing something wrong? Could it be that many are realizing that the watchtower organization is not from Jehovah God? Could it be that many of them did research outside the watchtower organization authorized sources and found out that the religion is a snare and a racket? Could it be the watchtower organization is rotten on the inside to the point of hiding lists of peadophiles?

sending our love to all the brothers and sisters please remember what happened in jesus days and what jesus said ...WHEN Jesus first sent out his apostles to preach the Kingdom, he warned them that they would encounter opposition. He told them: “You will be objects of hatred by all people on account of my name.” (Matthew 10:5-18, 22) Earlier, however, in his Sermon on the Mount, he gave his apostles and others the assurance that such opposition would not necessarily endanger their deep-felt happiness. In fact, Jesus even linked being happy with being persecuted as Christians! How could persecution bring happiness? Suffering for Righteousness’ Sake 2. According to Jesus and the apostle Peter, what kind of suffering brings happiness? 2 The eighth happiness that Jesus stated is: “Happy are those who have been persecuted for righteousness’ sake, since the kingdom of the heavens belongs to them.” (Matthew 5:10) Suffering in itself is not meritorious. The apostle Peter wrote: “What merit is there in it if, when you are sinning and being slapped, you endure it? But if, when you are doing good and you suffer, you endure it, this is a thing agreeable with God.” He further stated: “However, let none of you suffer as a murderer or a thief or an evildoer or as a busybody in other people’s matters. But if he suffers as a Christian, let him not feel shame, but let him keep on glorifying God in this name.” (1 Peter 2:20; 4:15, 16) According to Jesus’ words, suffering brings happiness when it is endured for righteousness’ sake.
I hear you - the more I hear the gossip that the world says about us, the more I am convinced we're doing the right thing. Otherwise, why is everyone so up in arms? WE all have FREEDOM to believe what we chose to believe. People have no clue that Jehovah's Witnesses as a Group - fought for Freedom of Religion in the U.S. ? Many people today can practice their Faith, Freely...because of Jehovah's Witnesses.
@@bjulianaleo3025 the sad thing is much of the news is true. Jehovah will have to punish the sad amount of paedophiles amongst his people .much of the persecution is brought on us because the 8 at the top are not telling us the truth about all the k hall sales and using the money for court cases . Jehovah has to punish his people to rid the religion of the ones who profane gods name .
It did occur to me that some things may be happening, no one organization is perfect. I trust that what ever house cleaning needs to be done, will be handled. Our KH is being sold, mostly due to the many attendees are getting old, and we can't keep up the 'upkeep'. it's a small hall, one of the older ones in the area. As far as Pedophiles... I know how they can be, and could infiltrate any Faith, school, sports organization, Office Worker, Baby Sitters...any where you look - there are Abusers looking for a VICTIM. There are legal implications, that need to be handled legally - and many times people rely on the wrong people to take action. They go to someone, and unload their Responsibility in this - because NO one is Brave enough, or Emotional Strong enough to say - Stop. And in the case of children - WE all never Teach them to be Aware of Bad People. I know from my own experience, that abuse is kept hidden for decades, mostly because of Fear. I don't see people today have changed any different from what used to happen decades ago...People are afraid to doing the right thing. I was abused by my father...and honestly, as a very young child - I did not know who to go to for help - HE was the grownup. THIS was with my own parents! I feared my dad, and couldn't go to my Mom. Now...how do you expect a person to deal with a STranger? Again... NO ONE is truly prepared to deal with such a hideous situation - even IN the best of knowledgeable situations. The KH, or any place of worship - is to be a place to be trusted. Yet, even the Catholic church - for decades - allowed Priest to do their dirty work in so many places - before someone said Enough. And the sad part...IT was Newspapers and Journalists that exposed a lot of the abuse that was happening. Sadly... The Cath. Church STILL continues this sort of abuse - and hiding the perpetrators. OH, if people only knew what really goes on at the Vatican...it would for some horrible Porno films. But no one points a finger at them. They only want to point at an Organization that is TRULY working hard to keep it Clean - Jehovah's Witnesses. The Average person of Witnesses, really works hard to stay morally clean...and trust me in saying this - I KNOW how hard that is in this world. And I'm an older woman. So - what ever is happening within our own Organization - is not without trying to clean it up, and make it Right. People are out for Blood these days...and $$$ You can't tell me isn't true. Some folks see the Dollar Signs. I know I don't need to stick up for anyone - least of all, for Jehovah. God Almighty sees it all...and won't let anyone Ruin His Good Name. OR the good people who are willing to stand up for the Truth. Thank you for letting me share this, .@@angiespangle9773
Think of the implications(spiritual death/eternal separation from God/Jesus and the Holy Spirit) the new world translation makes from God's true bible. The language or words makes the thoughts of our spirits, minds and hearts possible. But when the words disappear or changed/added so does our ability to think about those ideas the words represented or what the Holy Spirit really wanted us to know. The jw's/ watchtower organization changed/added or took away so many words and there by preventing it's members from saying or thinking God's(Yahweh) obvious and true words, to their own word's and ideas to fit the governing bodies agenda, teachings and doctrine, which not only gives them complete control but is designed to make it's members forget that God/Jesus and the Holy Spirit are one, and to just focus on jehovah. Overtime it becomes impossible to see the obvious. And that's exactly of course why they do it. Those who control your words control your mind.
Jehovah's witnesses are working with Jehovah God and Jesus christ preaching the good news to the world John 5:17,1corintians 3:9,Mathew 24:14,28:19-20,satan the devil demons and his people hate them for that John 15:18-21.

No one is force to become a JW, no one is force to listen to us or read the Bible, not everyone believe what the Bible says, Not everyone can become a Jehovah's Witnesses, but those that do, know this much, Our God we serve is Jehovah, Our king we honor and follow is Jesus Christ Jehovah's son, we know from the Bible we will be hated and persecuted, we are not greater than our Lord Jesus that was hated and persecuted, lied on, slaps spit on then put to death. So, not everyone can or will follow Christ, and many will become traitors like Judas. Only what count in the end how Jehovah and Jesus view us
So I guess that Jehova will not care about the findings of The Australian Royal Commission in cases 29 and 54 lol The Watchtower covered up 1006 cases of child sexual abuse from 1950 until a few years ago which is a SERIOUS crime but since it is the Watchtower and their satanic practices you will give it a green light anyway and let it pass like nothing ever happened, shame on you!
A JW told me that God's plan was for mankind to take care of a garden. I told him that God's plan before the creation of the world was salvation thru Jesus Christ. God created Satan and put the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the garden fully aware of what would happen. God is all knowing.
you dumb fuck, there was never any jesus, it is SEUZ form greek mythology, research the greeks crystos later known as the so called christians, it is astrology, crysos is the oil or fluid produced by the PENIAL gland while meditation is conducted properly...Egyptians knew this, later the Syrians and Babylonians, all ancients, all...jacob in the book of genesis called the place he saw god PENIAL...
So it is your position that God dangled an everlasting prospect before Adam, that God knew Adam was incapable of realizing? I believe God can know what will happen, but doesn't always have to use that ability. If it was God's will for Adam to sin, then God is complicit with causing sin and death.
No, God's plan was for good to fill the earth, but Satan who was originally good became jealous, and lied against God. God is all powerful, but He only chooses to know what HE WANTS to know, I only watch the UA-cam channels I want to watch.

I grew up as one. My whole family stopped when I was 13. The door to door, preaching, strict rules. It's all real. I understand that it gave me the ability to speak in a convicting manner, but the separation from society, the not being able to convey what I thought about life and us, as humans...they lied to me. I was a child, so malleable, so willing to find purpose, a meaning to the chaos. People could say that life has no purpose, no meaning at all. Cover any ground, any argument against what I feel. All the way from "who hurt you bruh!?" To "I dunno maybe hes just stupid". But alas, as I sit here reflecting on my experience, and you, yours. It's just a matter of time, we all gonna die eventually.

@Carl Troke so Carla you think it's heartbreaking to follow what the Bible says at 1st Corinthians 5 1 through 13? It says to remove and unrepentant congregation , otherwise a small lump and ferment the whole lump, in other words contaminate the rest of the congregation. The Bible says we have to keep the congregation clean.. That's what the Bible says to remove them. Unlike many churches that will excommunicate you and not allow you to come back to the church, we allow the individual to sit in the Kingdom Hall and listen to all the meetings and work with the elders to repent of what he's done wrong. I have a disfellowshipped son he's 41 years old and he lives at home with me because he lost his job. So I will not throw him out in the street it would not be loving.

Christians are those who accept the teachings of the Bible and who, through the definition of the historic undivided Church, give assent to the Creed which includes the Holy Trinity, Divinity of Jesus the Christ, baptism in the Name of the Holy Trinity (Mtt. 28 !), etc. They use the 27 books of the Bible that have been accepted by the historic undivided Church. Church Fathers like Origen of Alexandria (c 185 to 254 C.E.) and the Easter Letter of Athanasius Bishop of Alexandria ( 367 C.E.), listed those same 27 books that we use today. Without any accepted Biblical scholars the J.W. organization has rewritten and reinterpreted the Scriptures in such a way that no Biblical Scholar (a person prepared in the original languages of Koine Greek, Aramaic and Hebrew who has shown to have studied the Scriptures in his educational field and has published his research for the critique of other scholars) can accept many of its teachings. J.W.s blithely accept the teachings (many times changing with "new light") of an organization that lacks Biblical scholarship that Christian churches would NEVER presume to do. Even the insistence on the name Jehovah shows this lack of true Biblical scholarship. The tetragrammaton was thought to be pronounced as "Jehovah" in the Renaissance and Reformation periods, Biblical scholarship beginning in the 19th century recovered the real pronunciation as YAHWEH. No one needs to apologize for referring to groups who do not accept the Creedal statements of the ancient and undivided Church as non-Christians. There are groups I met in Africa that worship one god and claim that Jesus was one of their prophets and that doesn't make them a Christian church. Where could I find a Kingdom Hall in 1800? Or in 1700? Or in 1400? Or in 1100? Or in 800? Or in 500? I could go on. Didn't Jesus promise to NEVER abandon His Church (Mtt.28: 20)? Yet believers in the Gospel were abandoned to false teaching until Charles Russell founded his Bible Student movement ? Was the Bible really mistranslated until 1950 when the organization, without a single Scripture scholar, changed many passages to suit their beliefs? If you choose to follow the J.W. organization, that's your business. Don't fault Christians for maintaining the Christian Faith of 2,000 years with history and the Holy Spirit to back it up.

As for us older people, we've been in the mud and have done all kind of crazy things and when we find out about Jehová, we realize this is the right way, and wished we had listened to them in our younger years.

Aaron Cooper
And what makes you believe that they are a cult? Because all cults have 3 things in common. But before I tell you what they are, I will let you know that my mom and sister are part of that religion. And me myself, am ok with that religion. Although, yet to this day I refuse to get fully involved with them because of my own personal reasons.
Anyhow, these are what all cults have in common.
1. A leader that calls “All” the shots, and tricks his/hers followers into believing he/she has some kind of power. Or that he/she is god, or has a very strong connection to god.
2. A cult forces there followers into Isolation. Making them all stay in one place, close to the leader of the cult. Also they don’t allow there new followers to Socialize with anybody who is not part of the cult.
3. A cult gets there followers to give up all there money to the cult, or to have the follower give them a very high percentage of what they makes.
Now all of these 3 examples don’t have anything to do with the Jehovah Witnesses.
(1) They don’t have a leader, and there is no one claiming they are god, or speak to god directly. (2) All the followers have there freedom and are not Isolated. They can work whatever job they want, and they can talk with who ever they want. You probably walk pass a member today but didn’t notice because the act and look like everybody else.
(3) No one is taking there money, they have the choice to donate money. Me for one, never donated money, and no one has ever asked me to. You probably wouldn’t even know where to donate unless you were looking for the donate box.

Nice Guy you are actually redefining a cult in order to avoid admitting that Jehovah’s Witnesses are in fact a cult.
A personality cult like Jehovah’s Witnesses doesn’t have one leader that calls the shots but rather a group of leaders that calls the shots and makes extraordinary claims for themselves. The governing body who are in fact the leaders of Jehovah’s Witnesses do make extraordinary claims for themselves. They claim that in 1919 God chose them as his soul channel of communication with humanity.
Jehovah’s Witnesses do in fact socially isolate their members from the outside world and repeatedly tell them not to have unnecessary contact with outside members and not to form friendships with non-witnesses. Not all cults go into isolation nor do they require all of their members to be in the same place. Look at Scientology or the Monies or the worldwide Church of God or in this case Jehovah’s Witnesses. The goal is to isolate them from outside influences and to limit their contact with nonmembers to avoid exposing them to potential information that could sway their thinking.
Jehovah’s Witnesses cannot actually have any job they want as there are several jobs that involve interactions with other religious denominations and thus they are precluded from having those positions as well as any position that would put them in contact with the military.
The idea that a cult has to take peoples money in order to be defined as a cult is simply false.
The goal of the leadership could be money power authority or the leadership may simply be delusional and actually believe what they’re teaching but monetary acquisition is not a prerequisite of a cult.
Jehovah’s Witnesses are a cult. They use shunning or disfellowshipping as they call it to keep people from leaving the organization and to keep them enslaved. A Jehovah’s Witness who raises objections to some of the teachings or policies of the organization will be branded and apostate and they will be slandered and their friends and family will be told to cut ties with them. Any organization that punishes you with predatory isolation and family estrangement for questioning what they teach is a cult.
Bob I’ll be very interested to hear your definition of a cult seeing as you as well as nice guy Seem to be deliberately redefining the term in order to avoid admitting that Jehovah’s Witnesses are in fact a cult

They’ve ruined my childhood and life by being addicted to drugs, greed, gluttony. I have to live with my mother until I can get the rods removed, as they’ve caused me extreme pain. But she constantly blames me for the surgery and wasting her money. All I want is a family to just eat and talk to that aren’t sinners. I feel the world is so corrupt, I need to find like minded individuals. I agree with not celebrating many gluttonous and harmful holidays such as Christmas and birthdays. Just makes sense, every day is a holiday and gift from god, why must we bring pride and attention to ourselves so much. I like that they don’t support war either, jw just makes so much sense to me.

Jesus approached and spoke to them, saying: “All authority has been given me in heaven and on the earth.+ 19 Go, therefore, and make disciples of people of all the nations,+ baptizing them+ in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you.+ And look! I am with you all the days until the conclusion of the system of things.”*+
@@araratthanks8144 it's a chain reaction... people see the change in you and start to ask questions. You bring them into faith by your works, and they will follow. No need to stand on street corners with booklets everyday lol. Enjoy life and give thanks, people will come to you.
@@achildofthelight4725 ..... door in heaven, and the first voice that I heard speaking with me was like a trumpet, saying: “Come up here, and I will show you the things that must take place.” 2 After this I immediately came to be in the power of the spirit, and look! a throne was in its position in heaven, and someone was seated on the throne.+ 3 And the One seated had the appearance of a jasper stone+ and a sardius stone,* and all around the throne was a rainbow like an emerald in appearance.+
4 All around the throne were 24 thrones, and on these thrones I saw seated 24 elders+ dressed in white garments, and on their heads golden crowns. 5 From the throne were coming lightning+ and voices and thunders;+ and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, and these mean the seven spirits of God.+ 6 Before the throne was something resembling a glassy sea,+ like crystal.
In the midst of the throne* and around the throne were four living creatures+ that were full of eyes in front and behind. 7 The first living creature was like a lion,+ and the second living creature was like a young bull,+ and the third living creature+ had a face like a man’s, and the fourth living creature+ was like a flying eagle.+ 8 As for the four living creatures, each one of them had six wings; they were full of eyes all around and underneath.+ And continuously, day and night, they say: “Holy, holy, holy is Jehovah*+ God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is coming.”+
9 Whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanksgiving to the One seated on the throne, the One who lives forever and ever,+ 10 the 24 elders+ fall down before the One seated on the throne and worship the One who lives forever and ever, and they cast their crowns before the throne, saying: 11 “You are worthy, Jehovah* our God, to receive the glory+ and the honor+ and the power,+ because you created all things,+ and because of your will they came into existence and were created.”
God has a unique plan for each person, his way is good, he comes to give life and life more abundantly. Listen to God live the life he planned, you will enjoy what you do and be a witness on your own path. JW makes people keep a journal of a required amount of hours each month spent knocking on doors. Pretty legalistic.
@@101runaways I could not agree more. God has a plan for us all, healthy, rewarding, full of Love for one another and everything our heart desires if of the spirit. Not of things we attach ourselves with from the earth, big houses, cars and money etc... He will give us all that we need, and if it is a mansion so be it, as long as it don't make us greedy and feel superior to the less fortunate.
We reep what we sow, we give to the poor, God repays us with good things that suit us.
He comes first in everything.
As for JW keeping a journal on the time spent out and about.... what happens when they don't perform as other members of the watchtower? Are they forced to do this, are they punished if they don't? Are they working for God or man?
About the meaning of "the Son of God" - in Israel, the son of a healer was a healer, the son of a prophet was a prophet, the son of a fisherman was a fisherman (Zebedee was a fisherman and his sons were fishermen, too), the son of a priest was a priest, the son of a carpenter was a carpenter, etc. Therefore, when Jesus said He was the Son of God before the Sanhedrin, the Sanhedrin regarded the claim as blasphemy. When Peter told Jesus he thought Jesus was the Son of the living God, what did Jesus say to Peter? That Peter figured that out with his human logic or reasoning? No, it was God who revealed it to Peter. It was impossible for Peter to grasp that with his human reasoning. In the same sense, the apostle John says it amounts to the conquest of this world to believe that Jesus is the Son of God. We should accept and understand the expression "the Son of God" as those in Israel in the first century understood it - that by saying He was the Son of God, Jesus equated Himself with His Father in divine nature. The words of God should not be interpreted with human logic or reasoning. Consider the example of Psalm 2:7 - "You are my Son, Today I became your Father." By human logic, this verse means that the Son was created by the Father. But by divine logic, this is the prophecy about the resurrection of Jesus from the dead - compare with Acts 13:32-34. We should be careful not to subject the words of God to narrow boundaries of human reasoning. God bless.

Congratulations!
I tried so hard to study Jehovah witness but I wasn't born into it and I found it made me feel quilty nomadder what I did..I love them and I always will...it was my own falure..I was on drugs first of all.. second I couldn't just give up all the holidays and third of all I didn't agree with certain things like the no blood transfusion..it says don't drink blood, transfusion is threw the vein.i feel if you aren't born into it, it's very hard..But I have all the respect in the world for the jehovah witnesses also and I truly miss them.
You are kind , and humble in your word's. Religion sometimes is not for everybody, and I respect that very maturely you admitted that it wasn't for you. It's nice to see people say kind words like that and acknowledge that there are good witnesses just like in any religion you're going to have good or bad. Much respect to you for being honest.
We don't do blood transfusions because we don't want to impact in anyones life
I hated the term “worldly” . Just because you are not a JW does not make you worldly which they use in a negative way .
I would rather they say normal. I agree with you
compared to the Amish community, Jehovah's witnesses are pretty worldly....just sayin....
Glad to hear a nice report on JWs. I found them to be a very nice and polite religion.
Polite is one thing, however they have a strict shunning policy of former baptised members if those members choose not to return to the religion. People won’t talk to their own family ever again unless they return. It’s happened in my family and is widespread in the countries where Jehovah’s witnesses are present
@@justmadeit2 I'm not trying to start an argument here but i just wanna point out that we do this for a good reason. If a person in the congregation unrepentantly practices gross sin, God requires that he be disfellowshiped. If we remain loyal to God and to the congregation by not speaking to the disfellowshipped person, the wrongdoer may in time take a lesson from that, repent and be reinstated in the congregation. It is the disfellowshiped person who has made problems for himself and for his relative.
@@fforestgreenn9151 Can you explain why you discouarge higher education and where this is sanctioned in the Bible?
@@justmadeit2 You also have policies of strict shunning. Take for instance membership in a private club. The club has its rules and requirements. If a member refuses to follow those rules and requirements, the club will oftentimes "disfellowship" or revoke their membership from the club. That person will also not be reinstated as a member in good standing of that club until they learn and agree to follow the rules. The same applies to society in general. If a person commits a serious crime such as theft, fraud or an act of violence, they are thrown into a 6ft. by 6ft. cell and not permitted visitors and normal association for what can amount to several years or more. Why are they shunned this way? Because society is trying to correct their conduct. The same principle applies!
@@Pac-Man.. Can you explain where and why higher education has taught mankind to live together in peace? Bible teachings do not produce nuclear weapons, rockets, missiles, bullets or guns nor do they tolerate hatred towards one's fellow man. While you get your so called "higher education" from this or that university and learn to make nuclear weapons, bombs, missiles, etc., and hate and fight with one another, we, who attend the university of Jehovah, have learned to love our fellow man and live together united under a bond of love in every nation while war and hatred break out among "higher educated" people all around us. So even with your "higher" education, you have not yet learned to live in peace, but Jehovah's Witnesses have! So tell me please, WHO really has the higher education???
The only organization that is teaching the Bible which is good , may God help them 👌👌💓

Aleksi Jaakkola as a jehovah witness I think you are mistaken we do Use And read the new world translation and teach with it but if you see on our website and app we always provide other versions of the Bible such as the King James Version and make it available, so anyone who is reading a scripture can see each scripture has the same meanings in every version of the Bible. The New world translations purpose is to simply to make the Bible easier to understand for people wanting to read and learn from the Bible, but any version of the Bible will say the same message

Listen , When my mother forced me into this cult I was absolutely miserable . Starting from age 7 up until I was around 13 I had about enough ... I was always a very smart girl to know whatever she was trying to get me involved with was PURE EVIL . It got the point where I refused to be part of the occult or even participate . so she took it into her hands to ask the elders at the Kingdom Hall for advice and their advice was to throw me in a group home . That’s exactly what she did .... gave me up like I meant absolutely nothing to her and I was only 14/15 at that ..... A KID . I was Very lost very confused very hurt and I can never forgive her for destroying me leaving me feel so unloved and abandoned . Let me just say , this cult is extremely evil , manipulative, they destroy family’s , and do nothing but brainwash people. u become a slave mentality and physically and it’s sad that people don’t even realize it too. From experiencing the things I’ve experienced and seeing the things I’ve seen and doing the research I’ve been doing They hold a lot of dark secrets . I’m 22 right now happier then ever not to be part of there “ organization “ . I’m glad I’m free and I pray for my mother every day to god hoping for her to finally WAKE UP .
Stay strong!
Oh my -that is inexcusible! I am so sorry that you went through all that & that your mama is a slave to that cult. Truly I am so happy that you are free from that & I am lifting you & your mother up in prayer. You are an inspiration to many. Be blessed always!!!
Your exactly right about all their dark little secrets. Evil mind control. Im honestly surprised they've been getting away with it for so long.
I’ve never experienced the things you did and I had many JW associations. I’m sorry to hear what happened to you. But I don’t agree with your statements on calling the organization evil. I experienced nothing not love and genuine warm hearted Christian brothers. I felt like family there. My first opposers to all this were my own family members which at first was hard for me to understand why. I asked myself how could my own family become so cold and hostile to me for learning the truth and sharing it with them? They were Catholics btw.

You think this small group is the only one hated? Who told you that, an elder? True Christians are hated cause we follow Jesus. Does the elder want you to think jw's are the only ones hated(since your supposed to believe everything the elder says)since your the only ones and the only true religion? You've been lied to again. Jesus said "everyone will hate you because you are my followers. But the one who endures to the end will be saved". Mark 13:13. I'm not or ever will be a jw, i don't have a new world translation. What does it say in Mark 13:13? I'm trying to prove a point. Comment back to me, jw's are notoriously known for replacing Jesus's name for Jehovah's name. That's just one of many reasons your hated, for replacing the truth for a lie, and then spreading those lies. Even nonjws know it's not the truth and their lost in the world too, but there you are, knocking. Another reason is for waking people up on Saturday morning, when people just wanna be home, relaxing. Believe me there are are many many more reasons why jw's are so hated.

Jesus said before Abraham was I AM.
“The Jews, therefore, said unto him, ‘Thou art not yet fifty years old, and Abraham hast thou seen?’ Jesus said to them, ‘Verily, verily, I say to you, before Abraham’s coming - I am.’”
(John 8:57-58, YLT)
The conversation’s context simply points to the Jews’ questioning of Jesus’ pre-existence before Abraham’s… *not* his identifying himself as their own God and his own heavenly Father.
In any case, Jesus’ heavenly Father self-designating Himself as “ʼEh·yehʹ ʼAsherʹ ʼEh·yehʹ” in Exodus 3:14-329 years *after* Abraham’s death-should be syntactically translated.
The King James’ (1611) word-for-word “I am that I am” is poor translation to the modern reader and conveys meaning indifferent to the context of the conversation between God and Moses then.🕊

Jesus was speaking in Greek. Translators translated it that way - a total mis-translation into the English language (and mis-use of the English language). Read on. Jesus STATED he was "God's son".
Ron Morales
Jesus claimed many things to the Jews before finally saying He was the I Am, such as; coming from Heaven, God honoring Him and being a co-Witness with Him. If they wanted a reason to stone him, they had it. Also, the KJV 1611 is not the only rendering of the literal “I am that I Am” and contextually it makes perfect sense in light of who God reveals Himself to be as scripture unfolds.
The only bible that I know that misapplies terms and muddies up the context of certain passages is the New World Translation. If you even want to call it a translation.

No amount of good works will get you into heaven or paradise. As the scripture says believe in me and you will be saved. Begotten does not mean created, that is a mis-translation of the word monogenes which mean "One of a kind" or "one and only"

Hello,
I recently purchased three t-shirts for my grandson they have dinosaurs on them but the dinosaurs also are wearing Santa hats and there are Christmas trees and candy canes on the shirts as well. My grandson is 3 years old and being raised by his grandmother. She is a Jehovah Witness and has indicated that she cannot allow my grandson to wear anything that may be construed as Christmas themed. I'm just wondering if this would be the case with my grandson? I'm not looking to cause trouble I just am curious what the rules are.
Thanks,
Robert H.
They are a cult. Stay out. It took me YEARS to break away
This is basically it summed up
You can only worship Jehovah
Anything not related to Jehovah will be not allowed
You must be devoted to Jehovah(cannot do anything else just jehovah
Cant get a degree you have to spend all your time on Jehovah)
Its basically just control and jehovah which is pretty sad
My suggestion is to do a little research on Christmas and its origins. Just google search it. When you learn its origins, you may never want to allow your grandson to wear anything construed as Christmas themed either because its origins involved drunkeness, sexual orgies including with children, worship of pagan gods and goddesses, worship of the sun god Saturnalia, etc. The Roman church incorporated that pagan celebration into the Roman church in order to attract the pagans into their form of "christianity".
@@stickcheck3045 "its origins involved drunkeness, sexual orgies including with children, worship of pagan gods and goddesses"
Complete and utter nonsense! Christmas is simply the mid-winter festival to welcome the passing of the solstice. Spouting lies about it, as you did, shows how brainwashed you are.
And dinosaurs are fake
ask former Jeohvah witnesses, they'll tell you, "it was hell !!!!"
@Ben Santoyo used to go in a religion doesn't mean you are enjoy it. A lot of people in these religions are suffering but they don't know what to do.
It is difficult to follow Jesus' teachings in a world where SATAN is throwing temptations at you 24/7..Those who can't survive, always blame the religion rather than their own weaknesses.. So most all churches preach what makes the congregations happy and keeps them coming back.. How many religions follow 1 Corinthians 5-11? It's a REQUIREMENT from Jesus.. Failing to follow it makes a congregation guilty of not following Jesus' teachings and therefore UNCLEAN.. J W's do follow that teaching per Jesus' requirement, yet they are BASHED and DEMEANED for doing it by those who think they're smarter than Jesus.. They say it's CRUEL. Therefore, they are saying Jesus is CRUEL because he is the one who required it be followed.. Preachers LIE to the people about Heaven, Hell, and even tell them the end could come at any moment..The end won't come until all prophecy has been fulfilled.. Babylon the Great hasn't been destroyed..After it is destroyed, the Beast rules the earth for 1 hour (42.6) years.. No preacher will ever tell you that because they're Scripturally illiterate.. Heaven is a spiritual realm.. There is nothing physical in Heaven,. Those who go to Heaven, go as spirits to rule with Christ over the EARTH.. There is a RESURRECTION of the DEAD.. They do not go to Heaven upon death.. If they did, there would be no need for the resurrection. Lazarus died and didn't go to Heaven.. He was resurrected from the grave. He came out of the grave at Jesus' command. He didn't come down from Heaven.. They took the name Jehovah out of the King James bible because they said it shouldn't be there because there was no "J" in the Hebrew text... But, didn't take Jacob, Joshua, Jeremiah, Job and all the others whose names start with "J" that are in the Hebrew texts.. The word JEHOVAH makes Satan shudder.... The only way to tell if you're in the right religion is to see if they follow Jesus' command at 1 Corinthians 5 - 11 along with all his other teachings.. If not, you better run as fast as you can from that religion, unless you have no desire to follow them yourselves either.
@@classickruzer1 it's a problem, there are some predators, some pedophils in these congregations but your people hide them from justice and now here you speak about honnesty ?!!! Really ?

Oh, but where are all you BASHERS demeaning and attacking them.. YOU AREN'T because you HATE Jehovah.. You can't live up to the standards Jesus set and feel better about yourselves by blaming the religious organization that does follow his teachings ..Every one of these former J W's have committed SERIOUS SINS that got them disfellowshipped as 1 Corinthians 5 - 11 instructs, per Jesus' teachings All you who want to follow your own rules justify demeaning the J W's because it makes you feel good about yourselves. You think you're smarter than Jesus.. . Your religions let you do anything you want and you never get counseled or shunned by the others in the church.. You say it's an act of HATE .. Jesus says it's an act of LOVE.. Oh, sorry, I forgot, you're smarter than he is..
Stromae -- Oh, but why was the names Joshua, Jacob, Jeremiah, Job not taken out of the K J V???? You can't answer that can you.. And if you had any Scriptural knowledge at all, you'd know that SATAN does shudder at the name JEHOVAH..

I'm not an Atheist, I'm Messianic and I believe in YAHOVAH and Yeshua His Son, but you see, even Yeshua didn't cover up and tolerated the SINS & CORRUPTION of the existing religion of His Day, and the Temple He usually went on to read every Sabbath (NOT PAGAN Sunday Luke 4:16) when He sees something wrong in them.
They were HIS OWN PEOPLE (John 1:11) but they did not like Him because He CONFRONTED them and EXPOSED them for their sins, especially the corruption of their own priests and you can read how He denounced the pharisees on Matthew 23 by calling them FOOLS! SNAKES! and Brood of Vipers.
They were HIS own people in the religion HIS own family grew up with. Not a pagan belief, not the religion of the Romans or Babylonians, but The Jewish faith. Still, He didn't turned a blind eye to their corruption UNLIKE your Society who discourages their abused members NOT to go to the police for help whenever they've suffered SEXUAL abuse from the hands of other members OR elders. And this is what you call a LIE? The "lies" of members that your elders like modern day pharisees, have abused?
ua-cam.com/video/RlRHaO0y4ro/v-deo.html
You are NO different from the pharisees who called Yeshua OR Jesus before a DECEIVER for telling the painful TRUTH about them. (Matthew 27:63)
I remember a time when I knew a JW elder once here in the Philippines who told Me to keep My mouth shut and to "pretend to be blind" if I see atrocities in the society. Not surprising why I refused to be part of that religion because of their twisted sense of justice and I have a strong sense of justice as one who was once abused by a Catholic priest. How would you feel if YOU have experienced abuse by your own elders like us? 😊
There are good people among JW's no doubt, as there are good in EVERY religion including Buddhism, but this doesn't deny the fact that most of them are hiding skeletons in their closets.
You hypocrites.

I've been doing Bible Studies for the past several months and I'm loving it. Its been the happiest times and challenging as Satan is trying his best to make me stop my studies. I'm still learning about the Religion but so far from what I've observed they're very normal people who are very misunderstood and theres a lot of false accusations made about JW so before you believe any gossip or news you shouldn't judge a book by its cover and do your own personal investigation if you're genuinely curious...that's what I've done. They never pressured me in anyway and you can ask a million questions and they'll respectfully and patiently answer you. Do your research and they encourage that. I admire there dedicated research and I love how seriously they take the word of God and want to share it. If theres good news, it's meant to be shared.
I grew up in the kingdom Hall very good people of course there is bad in all religions but they are obedient to the word been studying different religions.it is difficult to know which is the right one but I am thinking about studying with witnesses again.psamls 83:18 that men may know that Jehovah is the most high over the heavens and the Earth!
Jesus Christ calls Himself the Alpha and Omega the beginning and the end . You will find that in Revelation chapters 1,21,22 and oddly enough Jehovah of the old testament calls himself the very same. You need to be born again ,why? look up Gen 5:1-3 and see what we are created in the image of. Do some serious research on the Jehovah's witnesses as a group and see why the mainline churches do not include them as anything other than a cult of Christianity. Catholics have a problem with priests who molest children , find out how the JW's address sexual abuse in the church. It will open your eyes .

@@bobloblawb2593 I think you are right about the holy spirit will lead you.there most probably been molesters in all religions but I can tell you this I'm not a member of JW church but have family that is Jehovah is God's true name Psalms 83:18 and almost 7000 times in the Bible before they started talking it out the KJ started putting it back on of you read the last verses of Revelations it says add nothing to or take nothing away from the scroll. I have heard a lot of people say things about witnesses that are simply untrue
Jesus Will be at the right hand side of the father the Bible says.everybody thinks their religion is right.i know you can take a KJ and compare to the NWT and it says the same thing it doesn't take God's name out.
@@joeyrogers8193 Psalm 111:9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name. You need to see that the word Jehovah is a translation of the word the Jews used as there was no pronunciation available. You are correct in the occurrence of the title Jehovah , however the entire new testament is dedicated to what Jesus Christ has done for us to get us closer to God. ( YHWH ) Man has concocted YHWH to be Jehovah as we for some reason have to have a name.
Strange that Jesus in Rev 22:13 calls himself the beginning and the end , the Alpha and Omega. How could this be when you say God created Him?

I don't know of any other "religion" that has made so many false promises and harbored so many false hopes than the Watchtower.
I know of no other religion than the largest Catholic sect that has murdered the most people over the centuries.
@@DjMakinetor Yes, all religions are religions created by humans. All the new American fundamentalist religions of the 19th century (Adventist, Jehovism, Mormonism ...) are the false prophets of modern times.
All these new “religions” cut themselves off from institutionalized churches and thus became more or less sectarian movements. All these new "churches" are from Millerism. This new current of thought arises from the message of William Miller, who was notably the first to predict the return of Christ for 1844. Influenced by this new movement, Russel will do the same by announcing the return of Christ for 1874. Then the dates (false predictions) will follow each other as they fail. Mormonism, Jehovism, and Adventism all appeared in North America (the New World), they all came in the late 19th century, all settled in the Northeastern United States. (New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan). Each of them was born from the providence of a man. Latter-day Saints (16 million followers) founder Joseph Smith, Jehovah's Witnesses (8 million followers) founder Charles Taze Russell, Seventh-day Adventists, (20 million followers) founder Joseph Bates. All these American movements announce "the moment is near", all proselytize, all demonize the world, all claim to have the truth, all have their world headquarters in the USA, and to top it off, all have a governing body exclusively made Americans. All these movements are in fact the product of an era, nothing more. Time will continue to pass with its vicissitudes without worrying about these small American movements which ultimately represent nothing on a global scale.

The proper way to say "jehovah" is to break it down into seven syllables and bray like a donkey. Jehovah represents the summer solstice in the constellation Cancer. This is the same constellation where we find the ass and her foal (stars) that Jesus (solar) rode into the Jerusalem of the free (summer solstice). The Jerusalem of the handmaid/slave is the winter solstice. Paul reminds us in Galatians 4 that Abraham, his two wives, two sons, and the two Jerusalems are ALLEGORICAL. Jehovah is addressed as Adoni (Ad - Oni) in jewish worship. Adoni is derived from the Pagan Adonis.
Look into masonry. You will see the truth of watchtower. The old witnesses met at Mason halls. The Mason's put Jehovah in an unholy Trinity. Jah, baal, Osiris. They believe him to be Satan! Jabolyn. You tell people to do their research, maybe you should. Pass the bread and wine and say, nope Jesus I don't need you, I will earn my way by pretend preaching
satan believe that Jesus is the son of God too, that intellectual knowledge won't save you, You need to believe who He is, Jesus is God in the flesh, He is God. He is not Michael the arc angel, as satan want you to believe.

@@hmmnope9231 - You know that the Watchtower later said that people did actually see rain before Noah's day. They just keep changing their version of the story and J-Dubs can't keep up.
Efrain Rivera Junior I did not! Thank you for sharing! I left the religion 6 years ago and haven’t done my own research to prove or disprove the bible’s teachings, as it would hurt my family. And not coming to my own conclusions so soon has left the door open for me to keep asking questions about things I find in videos like this or John Cedars, DarkMatter2525, and Telltale. I have to watch the video and form their question like my questions as if they watch the video they may get caught up on one small detail and that taints how they view the question. I have found that talking about the organization is a lost cause, as they will go along with it until the organization changes the bible, the bible teachings... So me saying all these little changes don’t bother you at all? When they raise red flags for me. But they say they follow Jehovah not man, it’s all very hard to wrap my head around.

JWs "truth"? "Jehovah's Witnesses, in their eagerness for Jesus' second coming, *have suggested dates that turned out to be incorrect."* Awake 1993 Mar 22 page4
*Jehovah’s Witnesses have had wrong expectations about when the end would come.* Jan 1, 2013 Watchtower
"Does this admission of making mistakes stamp them [Jehovah's Witnesses] as false prophets? Not at all, for false prophets do not admit to making mistakes." Watchtower, Nov. 1, 1972, page 644 - in brackets added
Admitting to making false prophecies doesn't magically change them, they are still Bible defined false prophecies (Deut 18:2-0-22) Very poor reasoning, probably why JWs "suggested dates" and went beyond scripture.
"suggested dates, wrong expectations" ARE false prophecies.

This video neglects to inform the viewer that Jehovah’s Witnesses can be disfellowshipped which involves being cut off by every member of the church including their friends and family if they choose to get a blood transfusion. It also neglected to highlight the controversial issues surrounding their belief in covering up the sexual abuse of children and not reporting it to police. They also didn’t talk about the fact that disfellowshiping Is used as blackmail to keep people from speaking out about disagreements they have with the beliefs or policies, it is also used to silence those who try to come forward about sexual abuse.
So - a cult.

I recommend you look into the Australian royal commission and the findings there as far as Jehovah’s Witnesses.

John 16: 27-28.

They say how can Jesus raise himself up after 3 days if he is also god, so in their minds it doesn’t make sense.

Why did Jesus come to us on earth.? To save us or snatch us from the kingdom of darkness (of this world) Colossians 1:13. The only way is by calling on Jesus. Jesus said Come to me all you who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. The watchtower won’t allow people come to Jesus?Paul persecuted those who were calling on the name of the Lord Jesus and he then met Jesus and called on Jesus and receiving his free gift of forgiveness and salvation.Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord Jesus will be given the free gift of forgiveness Romans 10:9-13. Are you going to call on Jesus right now and have eternal life.There is no point calling on Michael the archangel

Back in the early 90s I was living on the top floor of an apartment building in Queens New York City. On a hot humid Saturday morning in August my doorbell rang. When I opened the door there was a JW women with her son who about 5 years old. The poor kid was wearing a suit and carrying a heavy suitcase. The mother asked me what do I think the biggest problem in the world is today. I looked at that poor child and the first thing that came out of my mouth was child abuse. I got the kid some cold water. I told the mother your poor child is sweating like crazy. You need to get him hydrated and a house with air conditioning. If you do not leave this building immediately I will call the police on you for child abuse. She thanked me and did leave. 30 years later I still regret not calling the police on that woman.
they are sheep who have gone astray.
Two of them came to my door. One of them was so nasty to me because I was Baptist. Another girl was with her who stood behind her, making terrible faces at me. I grew up going to church, and I am religious. I would never try to force my religion on them. Finally, she asked me if she should come back with my husband was here! I said oh no, he won’t even talk to you he’ll turn the hose on you! And then they left. Also, a lot of the things that are prohibited only affect children like Easter bunny, tooth fairy, Santa, birthdays, etc.

Calling something out as a lie is not a form of persecution. Persecution is when you use media and construct laws to disrupt people’s lives. Those tactics usually encourage others to attack you socially and even physically.
No one has said Jehovah’s Witnesses cannot drink from this water fountain and cannot eat at this restaurant. No one has used media to say, these people are bad and we will show only them doing bad things.
If Jehovah’s Witnesses never use social media they’d never know. They are allowed to go about their lives and preach.
That’s not persecution.
@@arrellehnisrael8229 PERSECUTION is when others attack an individual or group when their beliefs are different from mainstream. It has nothing to do with a water fountain or a restaurant...That's DISCRIMINATION, not PERSECUTION... GEEZ.. And there are vast amounts of persecution all throughout social media outlets and even some governments ... describing these people as "bad". Whether J W's use social media or not, doesn't absolve the fact that they're not persecuted. What do you think you're doing? J W's are persecuted more than ISIS, Catholics, Baptists, Buddhists, Hindus, and Islamists.. And I doubt that you nor all these other persecutors even know that in 2019 the most religious sexual abuse cases were the 1, Catholics..2.Southern Baptists..3.United Methodists .... but for some reason, it's always the J W's that everyone points their little sticky fingers at. In fact a study showed that the amount of sexual abuse within the J W's organization was no more than found in any other organization other than the aforementioned.. All sexual abuse is terrible, but to chastise one and ignore all the others is persecution as well. So you have a lot to learn..I hope you're at a young age and your ignorance is attributed to just that, rather than to the lies and propaganda you've heard throughout a longer lifespan.

The JWs frown upon relationships with outsiders who they call “worldly”. Thus all your friends end up being JWs and when you leave they’ll stop taking to you because you become worst than a “worldly” person.
Another thing, the Watchtower Organization will take up all your time with many activities designed to keep you inside and when you leave you’ll see that you’ve spent years working for free for the advancement of the organization and you have nothing. No skills, no training, no nothing. It’s basically indentured servitude.
Run away or pay the price your choice.
Jace Johnson
It sounds really nice when you put it that way, but is not true isn’t?
People don’t leave because of having a bad heart, no one can read hearts but Jehovah God.
Many people leave because they find their trust is betrayed by the watchtower organization.
A person should be realistic about the ability of the Watchtower Witness Organization to interpret the Scriptures. To date there has been a proven time prophecy failure rate of 100%. The Watchtower Witness Organization used Bible prophecy to explain that the following dates were of significance: 1780, 1799, 1829, 1844, 1846, 1872, 1874, 1875, 1878, 1880, 1881, 1891, 1906, 1910, 1915, 1920, 1921, 1925, 1935 and 1975. Every single one of these interpretations is now admitted as wrong. Even 1914, 1918 and 1919 were not fulfilled as expected and subsequently reinterpreted after the event. 1918 now meaningless as is 1935. This does not inspire confidence that Holy Spirit guides Watchtower Witness Organization Bible interpretations, or that current understanding of 1914 is correct.

Thank you for replying, but I have to ask are you sure? Are you sure that the 40,000 to 100,000 people who get kicked out of the watchtower organization every year is because they’re doing something wrong?
Could it be that many are realizing that the watchtower organization is not from Jehovah God?
Could it be that many of them did research outside the watchtower organization authorized sources and found out that the religion is a snare and a racket?
Could it be the watchtower organization is rotten on the inside to the point of hiding lists of peadophiles?
Could it be that many many children have died for refusing blood transfusions which is not a biblical Christian or loving position?
Could it be the men of the governing body are lying?

sending our love to all the brothers and sisters please remember what happened in jesus days and what jesus said ...WHEN Jesus first sent out his apostles to preach the Kingdom, he warned them that they would encounter opposition. He told them: “You will be objects of hatred by all people on account of my name.” (Matthew 10:5-18, 22) Earlier, however, in his Sermon on the Mount, he gave his apostles and others the assurance that such opposition would not necessarily endanger their deep-felt happiness. In fact, Jesus even linked being happy with being persecuted as Christians! How could persecution bring happiness?
Suffering for Righteousness’ Sake
2. According to Jesus and the apostle Peter, what kind of suffering brings happiness?
2 The eighth happiness that Jesus stated is: “Happy are those who have been persecuted for righteousness’ sake, since the kingdom of the heavens belongs to them.” (Matthew 5:10) Suffering in itself is not meritorious. The apostle Peter wrote: “What merit is there in it if, when you are sinning and being slapped, you endure it? But if, when you are doing good and you suffer, you endure it, this is a thing agreeable with God.” He further stated: “However, let none of you suffer as a murderer or a thief or an evildoer or as a busybody in other people’s matters. But if he suffers as a Christian, let him not feel shame, but let him keep on glorifying God in this name.” (1 Peter 2:20; 4:15, 16) According to Jesus’ words, suffering brings happiness when it is endured for righteousness’ sake.

As far as Pedophiles... I know how they can be, and could infiltrate any Faith, school, sports organization, Office Worker, Baby Sitters...any where you look - there are Abusers looking for a VICTIM.
There are legal implications, that need to be handled legally - and many times people rely on the wrong people to take action. They go to someone, and unload their Responsibility in this - because NO one is Brave enough, or Emotional Strong enough to say - Stop. And in the case of children - WE all never Teach them to be Aware of Bad People.
I know from my own experience, that abuse is kept hidden for decades, mostly because of Fear. I don't see people today have changed any different from what used to happen decades ago...People are afraid to doing the right thing.
I was abused by my father...and honestly, as a very young child - I did not know who to go to for help - HE was the grownup. THIS was with my own parents! I feared my dad, and couldn't go to my Mom.
Now...how do you expect a person to deal with a STranger? Again... NO ONE is truly prepared to deal with such a hideous situation - even IN the best of knowledgeable situations. The KH, or any place of worship - is to be a place to be trusted.
Yet, even the Catholic church - for decades - allowed Priest to do their dirty work in so many places - before someone said Enough. And the sad part...IT was Newspapers and Journalists that exposed a lot of the abuse that was happening.
Sadly... The Cath. Church STILL continues this sort of abuse - and hiding the perpetrators. OH, if people only knew what really goes on at the Vatican...it would for some horrible Porno films. But no one points a finger at them.
They only want to point at an Organization that is TRULY working hard to keep it Clean - Jehovah's Witnesses. The Average person of Witnesses, really works hard to stay morally clean...and trust me in saying this - I KNOW how hard that is in this world. And I'm an older woman.
So - what ever is happening within our own Organization - is not without trying to clean it up, and make it Right. People are out for Blood these days...and $$$ You can't tell me isn't true. Some folks see the Dollar Signs. I know I don't need to stick up for anyone - least of all, for Jehovah. God Almighty sees it all...and won't let anyone Ruin His Good Name. OR the good people who are willing to stand up for the Truth. Thank you for letting me share this,

Jehovahs withnesses continue to preach because they love jehovah and there neighbours
Hello sister how are things going with you
Think of the implications(spiritual death/eternal separation from God/Jesus and the Holy Spirit) the new world translation makes from God's true bible. The language or words makes the thoughts of our spirits, minds and hearts possible. But when the words disappear or changed/added so does our ability to think about those ideas the words represented or what the Holy Spirit really wanted us to know. The jw's/ watchtower organization changed/added or took away so many words and there by preventing it's members from saying or thinking God's(Yahweh) obvious and true words, to their own word's and ideas to fit the governing bodies agenda, teachings and doctrine, which not only gives them complete control but is designed to make it's members forget that God/Jesus and the Holy Spirit are one, and to just focus on jehovah. Overtime it becomes impossible to see the obvious. And that's exactly of course why they do it. Those who control your words control your mind.
Jehovah's witnesses are working with Jehovah God and Jesus christ preaching the good news to the world John 5:17,1corintians 3:9,Mathew 24:14,28:19-20,satan the devil demons and his people hate them for that John 15:18-21.
Who told you this? an elder lmao
People hate them for spreading false spiritual utterances and for turning a blind eye to sexual child abuse. "Jehovah's Witnesses, in their eagerness for Jesus' second coming, *have suggested dates that turned out to be incorrect."* Awake 1993 Mar 22 page4
*Jehovah’s Witnesses have had wrong expectations about when the end would come.* Jan 1, 2013 Watchtower
@@wylolister3218 So which people around the world are true Christians Jesus followers according to the bible Mathew 5:14-16,2thimoty 2:19,1JONH 3:10,Mathew 7:21?
And over 4 million members in all countries. You think that's small. They are a big organization
It’s small when you see how many show up for meetings. Very empty Kingdom Halls.
4 million is TINY. The mormons have 15 million, the Catholics 1.2 BILLION. Besides, per their last report baptized publishers in almost every developed country is literally in decline, they are only seeing noticeable growth in poor countries with rarer internet access. What a coincidence...
@my manner The great crowd which no man could number. I'd you know the number then you're not apart of the great crowd the bible speaks of... think about that. Take care.
@my manner I understand that. The bible says it's a great crowd which NO MAN COULD NUMBER. So... my statement to you and your organization is as follows: If you KNOW THE NUMBER of your crowd then it is NOT the great crowd.
They work closely with the elks, MOOSE, and lyons "FREEMASONS" they are criminal gangstalkers.
I love Jehovah’s Witnesses.
Jesus loves Children and not those who murder, abuse and torture them! Soooo you might wanna reconsider and do real independent research.
Whoa , isn’t the wt man at headquarters wearing rather tight pants and jacket ?
gregh 5100 lol right
🤣🤣🤣
Who?
Jehovah is my witness
THEY ARE GOD'S SPECIAL PEOPLE 🙏 RESPECT THEM! JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES ARE BLESSED 🙌 JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES ARE HELPING GOD TO FIGHT AND IS FIGHTING ALONG WITH HIM IN THE VICIOUS, NASTY, FIERCE, SHOCKING, DIRTY, SENSELESS, DETERMINED AND UTTERLY DESPERATE BATTLE WHICH THE DEVIL IS SHOCKINGLY WAGING AGAINST ALMIGHTY GOD! NEVER WEAKEN THESE PRECIOUS WARRIORS OF GOD AS THEY ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO GOD AND THE UNIVERSE! MAY NO-ONE EVER WEAKEN THEM!
Lol
@@snicker576 JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES ARE GOD'S HOLY, SPECIAL AND CLEAN PEOPLE 🙏 THEY ARE HELPING GOD TO FIGHT AND IS FIGHTING ALONG WITH HIM IN THE VICIOUS, NASTY, FIERCE, DIRTY, SHOCKING, SENSELESS, DETERMINED AND DESPERATE BATTLE THAT THE DEVIL IS SHOCKINGLY WAGING AGAINST ALMIGHTY GOD!VIDEOS LIKE THIS WEAKEN THESE PRECIOUS, FAITHFUL AND COURAGEOUS WARRIORS OF GOD WHICH IS NOT HELPFUL TO GOD OR THE UNIVERSE. THIS MATTER IS VERY SERIOUS! SO IT'S A VERY GOOD IDEA TO LEAVE THE WITNESSES ALONE.
I thought Jews are God special people
No one is force to become a JW, no one is force to listen to us or read the Bible, not everyone believe what the Bible says, Not everyone can become a Jehovah's Witnesses, but those that do, know this much, Our God we serve is Jehovah, Our king we honor and follow is Jesus Christ Jehovah's son, we know from the Bible we will be hated and persecuted, we are not greater than our Lord Jesus that was hated and persecuted, lied on, slaps spit on then put to death. So, not everyone can or will follow Christ, and many will become traitors like Judas. Only what count in the end how Jehovah and Jesus view us
So I guess that Jehova will not care about the findings of The Australian Royal Commission in cases 29 and 54 lol The Watchtower covered up 1006 cases of child sexual abuse from 1950 until a few years ago which is a SERIOUS crime but since it is the Watchtower and their satanic practices you will give it a green light anyway and let it pass like nothing ever happened, shame on you!

Funny coming from a group of 8.6 million Jehovah's witnesses that broadly spend most of their time practicing paedophellia..duh
A JW told me that God's plan was for mankind to take care of a garden. I
told him that God's plan before the creation of the world was salvation
thru Jesus Christ. God created Satan and put the tree of knowledge of
good and evil in the garden fully aware of what would happen. God is all
knowing.
He gave man free will to choose.
you dumb fuck, there was never any jesus, it is SEUZ form greek mythology, research the greeks crystos later known as the so called christians, it is astrology, crysos is the oil or fluid produced by the PENIAL gland while meditation is conducted properly...Egyptians knew this, later the Syrians and Babylonians, all ancients, all...jacob in the book of genesis called the place he saw god PENIAL...
So it is your position that God dangled an everlasting prospect before Adam, that God knew Adam was incapable of realizing? I believe God can know what will happen, but doesn't always have to use that ability. If it was God's will for Adam to sin, then God is complicit with causing sin and death.
No, God's plan was for good to fill the earth, but Satan who was originally good became jealous, and lied against God. God is all powerful, but He only chooses to know what HE WANTS to know, I only watch the UA-cam channels I want to watch.
There is no free will. Only God’s will. For example... 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12.
Stop being told what to think by man made words and read God’s words.
I have 1,198 videos uploaded to UA-cam of my discussions with British Jehovah's Witnesses, sorted out into various UK geographical regions. It's amazing to hear so many elders being completely incapable of defending their own beliefs.
Where do all these sects like Scientology or JW get all the money from to build huge buildings?
cult members & selling real estate
@@wylolister3218 They seem to be successful in that!
