7. Leaving Jehovah’s Witnesses - the truth about Disfellowshipping and Shunning - God’s view? 

totally understand. I was in the same boat. It's like the others didn't know what to do with me.

Jesus christ sent churches including exjws apostate to preach about the Jehovah's witnesses????????????

You sound like you have a cold. I hope you get better soon! Thanks for your videos. You really made sense with what you had to say. Like how God would have had to continue to clothe and direct Adam and Eve on making a home and raising children, etc... Disfellowshipping is really cruel! I was never baptized because I didn't want to get disfellowshipped. That doesn't matter now. I've been shunned by the JWs in my family for at least 10 years now. I get these insipid letters from my mother every 3 months or so for at least the past 4 years now. I'm dreading the next one. My sister (df'd) gets letters sometimes, too. One of my older neices got married and I never found out until 3 years later. I don't know her new last name or have gotten to meet her new husband. I'm in a mental health crisis lately because of being cut off. I have felt suicidal sometimes. The only real friend I have is my non-Witness husband. My family has been fractured by this cultish circus! Our 'origin story' started when both of my grandmothers were suckered and exploited into joining back in the 50s. Both women were home alone with their children when they were called on. They responded, obviously. What makes me ANGRY about that is they were preyed on and bribed with the hope of eternal life. Both died in the 1990s. It never happened during their lifetimes, anyway! This is DESPICABLE!

@@R.Oates7902 Bekah thank you for sharing so personally from your heart of your own story there…. It makes me so mad when I read these life experiences, but I also KNOW the TRUE GOD loves each one of us with an incomprehensible everlasting love that TRANSCENDS all earthly deceit, control and corruption and offers to make EACH ONE OF US WHOLE IN CHRIST (THE TRUE JESUS CHRIST NOT THAT OF THE WATCHTOWER!). He has used the dark experiences of those caught up in such cults to draw souls unto HIM and to restore those who place their trust in HIM (the TRUE GOD not that of the WT). I have been blessed to watch so many ex-JW videos and testimonies that are so empowering and encouraging and demonstrate such care and love for others caught up in the DECEIT to help them get out and live new lives of wellness! I am praying for you, Bekah, that you come to know YOUR IDENTITY AND PURPOSE IN CHRIST WHILE YOU ARE ON THIS EARTH. God loves you so much and desires you to KNOW HIS SAVING LOVE IN CHRIST. I pray for your re-birth in JESUS so that you may KNOW with all certainty WHO YOU ARE, THAT YOU ARE ETERNALLY VALUED, HAVE A PURPOSE ON EARTH AND A JOYOUS ETERNITY AWAITING YOU AT THE TIME GOD APPOINTS! The Watchtower TWISTED the Scriptures, Bekah, and ADDED to them with FALSE propaganda, creating a FALSE GOD of their own making to exert power and control over lost souls, despicably attempting to step into the PLACE OF SALVATION ONLY ASSIGNED TO CHRIST. I am happy to hear you have a non-JW husband who I am sure loves you dearly and desires your wellness. It is a journey, but a journey worth fighting, and IN CHRIST YOU ARE AN OVERCOMER AND VICTOR!!! May the One True God bless you and guide your steps ahead as you learn about Who He REALLY IS and TRUST IN HIM FOR YOUR LIFE! Love, Nancy

Glad you escaped quickly 😅

You are right in that it goes beyond death and becomes a blotting out of a person’s very existence. Excellent point 😮

Just when I think I’ve heard the saddest thing about this cult, someone shares something else. How utterly deplorable. Doesn’t God tell us to do unto others whatever we would have them do unto us??? Would ANYONE choose this kind of treatment for themselves?? Then why treat others this way? Because 8 fallible mortal men in Brooklyn who think they are God’s chosen (UNbiblically) have instructed them to do so?? How can intelligent people be so blind?? To me demonstrates that this is a SPIRITUAL issue, and since God’s Spirit is NOT working in this cult, how can even God’s Word be spiritually discerned?? It cannot!

It is very important! . If they are treating you as if you never existed then, you will need to be born again: . Isaiah 66:5-8 5 Hear the word of Jehovah, YOU men who are trembling at his word: “YOUR brothers that are hating YOU, that are EXCLUDING YOU BY REASON OF MY NAME, said, ‘May Jehovah be glorified!’ He must also appear with rejoicing on YOUR part, and they are the ones that will be put to shame.” . [Name of person] is no longer a Jehovah's Witness --> EXCLUDING YOU BY REASON OF MY NAME . An end time prophecy that can only be fulfilled by disfellowshipped Jehovah's Witnesses! . Now keep reading in Isaiah Chapter 66: Isaiah 66:7 Before she began to come into labor pains SHE GAVE BIRTH. Before BIRTH PANGS could come to her, she even gave deliverance to a male child. 8 Who has heard of a thing like this? Who has seen things like these? Will a land be brought forth with LABOR PAINS in one day? Or will a nation be BORN at one time? For Zion has come into LABOR PAINS as well as GIVEN BIRTH TO HER SONS. . . You are now being born again! . .

@@faithhopefuture i used to belong to a congregation in a small town of about 5000. we were all very close and felt a lot of love for each other. Eventually my family and i moved 250 miles to Portland OR, and I recall visiting my old congregation in Washington to discover that a dear sister and friend of mine had been disfellowshipped. i asked her mother how she was doing and i’ll never ever forget her mother’s response. it stayed with me all these years. She responded with a tone of harsh contempt and said: _”I don’t really know, i think she’s still alive”._ Even as a fully indoctrinated, mentally in JW i was nevertheless shocked at the lack of love and concern that this woman had for her own daughter.

@@isaiah30v8 i agrée !!!

So true. Most people who leave with their faith intact (sadly many become atheistic) realise this. That each meeting is an insult to Jesus. My blood used to boil regularly at Watchtower studies in the few months before I left as God opened my eyes to the lies taught about Jesus.

@@faithhopefuture I remember those intervening months well fortunately it was on zoom at the time for me, I started to see the watchtower for the cancer that it is to people’s relationship with God they try to take the place of Jesus Christ as mediator. It is sad that many exJws have currently turned to Atheism we continue to dialogue and pray for the Holy Spirit to open their minds and hearts to the Triune God of the Bible.

Amen 🙏

Show this scriptuually please?

So I will leave this comment here. I've watched some of your video's and got some of your background and collected your idea's of where you are coming from. So Like {Many} you are saying JW org is a sec leading people away from the True Christ. One of the problems i see today is people leave secs and then they promote their own idea's on the Bible. There's a lot of things you said where i can understand why one would feel that way. But I don't agree that heaven is open to Christians like a lot of them think. There apart in the Bible where Jesus is explaining the different sources of life. As the fish to the oceans to the birds in the air to humans on earth and to angels in heaven. The whole point of Adam and Eve was to put life on earth. Adam and Eve was never going die But as we all know sin and death entered from not listening to GOD Romans 5:12 Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned- The Bible is very clear on the 144k the great crowd stays on earth as you know. God comes down to man kind and dwells. Rev 7:9 After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. {WHO IS HOLDING PALM BRANCHES IN HEAVEN ?} It's very hard to find people talking about GOD and not making money. Here people will be talking about the Scriptures and out of nowhere an immoral-commercial will pop up. or a commercial that advertises to go to another false sec. The evil spirits are very cleaver in opening thoughts to your mind. ONE can become hypocritical with out realizing IT! One starts teaching when they just started learning and starts condemning when they are not even teaching the right thing in the first place. I'm not a Christian of any sort but i believe in Christ and recognized his Father. I too went my whole life thinking the ORG was the truth. I had to realize that no sec is the truth but has truths mix with lies. all secs are guilty of this. all secs have changed the wording of God. all sec have their sheep handing in money to horde it. and Just about all secs are willing put man traditions over GOD'S. I really wonder what Paul would write to these religions in today's time. If there anything you said from the videos you are right about this one thing and that is to let no one or religion to stumble you from Jehovah GOD. Jesus warned people that it would be possible that the slave would turn evil and be put with the hypocrites. You have to read all of Matthew 24;45-51 not just half. all I can say for anyone who feels they been done wrong or feels there something wrong just hang on to Jehovah God in these very last days and always remember this whole Scripture if you feel you are going crazy. Matthew 24:45-51 45 “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time? 46 It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns. 47 Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions. {{{{{{{ 48 But suppose that servant is wicked}}}}}} and says to himself, ‘My master is staying away a long time,’ 49 and {{{he then begins to beat his fellow servants}}}} and to eat and drink with drunkards. 50 The master of {{{{that servant will come on a day when he does not expect}}}} him and at an hour he is not aware of. 51 He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.}}}}}}

Thank you for giving a brief run down of JW theology. For my subscribers and viewers this is a prime example of the unusual JW beliefs that at best are wildly elitist despite the Bible saying God is not partial. Please note the Bible clearly says God always knew mankind would fall and it was the plan before creation took place that Jesus would come to redeem us. So this really makes redundant the argument that we were designed to remain on earth forever as flesh and blood humans. 1. Peter 1:20 “He (Christ) indeed was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you” NKJV

I don’t have an issue with authority if its a) divinely instituted (which the organisation is not - it is entirely self-appointed) b) exercised under Holy Spirit direction c) balanced with love and justice d) improves quality of life rather than destroys lives Thank you for your feedback it gives me ideas for future topics.

@@faithhopefuture you mean mental instituted, exercised by the devil himself! this is more you and pretty much sums you up 2 Timothy 3:13 from bad to worse!

Follow my channel and my life on Instagram at @samradfo - observe over time how God is blessing and elevating his daughter whose loyalty to Him is greater than a manmade ‘organisation’ she was happy to leave behind once its true nature became clear…
