Jehovah's Witnesses DEBUNKED as a FALSE Religion! 

Lñlnnllnmnnlnñm

Wow and she watched it through and still nothing?

@@CelticGypsy-USA Dont be harsh, most JWs will tell that leaving the organisation takes a death by a thousand cuts. It tends to be a very slow process to get your mind back. It can take years and even decades to deprogram.

@@bunchlead I know. I'm still healing from it myself after 2 years. I'm just surprised she watched it at all

@@CelticGypsy-USA Took my family decades and still some won't accept the facts to this day that JWs are a fraudulent cult.

True. It's all part of their brainwashing, to doubt all external sources as being demonic in some form or another.

It’s not as simple as “choosing.” Their benightedness stems from the brainwashing they’ve underwent for all their lives-The Governing Body has grafted its thinking onto the individual members, teaching them to fear and disbelieve in all information coming from “the world.” This imposed fear acts as a choke point to knowledge intake. They won’t look at “worldly” information because doing so threatens their “resurrection.”

Brainwashed, with a side of cognitive dissonance. And a side of emotional hostage. Yes very sad

And one day you m8ght be your jehovahs witness mother's caregiver. 😱😭

​@@reginaldmckinney5786well put! Yes

"We" know, but there are a lot of people who still need to recognize it.

It's easy to see once you're out but in that bubble, it's very hard

Pretty much every religion is a cult. It’s easier to spot some.

There must be some kind of way outta here.

@@billcook4768 ...said the joker to the thief.

So now you have an excuse to celebrate all the pagan holidays Christmas Easter and all the rest of the pagan holidays

Ah I see Jazz bass is here to troll people who have come out the other side of JW's even though they're all told to stay away from us 😂😂😂

@@jazzbassf None of them are pagan.

@@nicolarenshaw6460 Jazz Bass denies the 1975 date happening.

I was born in 75 ...did that armageddon thing pan out as obviously i dont remember

@michaelthemi....sorry, that is not what Fred Franz says in fact he said do not be telling anyone that the end is coming look at the 1974 yearbook where he was quoted you're saying misinformation my friend. People who wanted to leave just use that as a excuse

@michadlthemi... 😀 came in 1976 and still here after 48 years and still love my brothers and sisters because they never said that Armegeddon was coming see the 1974 yearbook and see what Brother Fred Franz actually said. Day and hour only the Father knows.

@@jazzbassf Ok. Enjoy the dream. Armageddon is just round the corner . !!

​@@jazzbassf They did say that Armegeddon was coming in 1975. "The fact that fifty-four years of the period called the "last days" have already gone by is highly significant. It means that only a few years, at most, remain before the corrupt system of things dominating the earth is destroyed by God." Awake! 1968 Oct 8 p.13 "Many schools now have student counselors who encourage one to pursue higher education after high school, to pursue a career with a future in this system of things. Do not be influenced by them. Do not let them "brainwash" you with the Devil's propaganda to get ahead, to make something of yourself in this world. This world has very little time left! Any "future" this world offers is no future! Wisely, then, let God's Word influence you in selecting a course that will result in your protection and blessing. Make pioneer service, the full-time ministry, with the possibility of Bethel or missionary service your goal. This is a life that offers an everlasting future!" Watchtower 1969 Mar 15 p.171 "If you are a young person, you also need to face the fact that you will never grow old in this present system of things. Why not? Because all the evidence in fulfillment of Bible prophecy indicates that this corrupt system is due to end in a few years. Of the generation that observed the beginning of the "last days" in 1914, Jesus foretold: "This generation will by no means pass away until all these things occur."-Matt. 24:34. Therefore, as a young person, you will never fulfill any career that this system offers. If you are in highschool and thinking about a college education, it means at least four, perhaps even six or eight more years to graduate into a specialized career. But where will this system of things be by that time? It will be well on the way toward its finish, if not actually gone!" Awake! 1969 May 22 p.15

I like how one older poster who was in the congregation as a JW, she said it was a frenzy in those days, everyone preparing for the end in 1975. The WTS [in their Kingdom Ministry) was even praising people who sold their homes to live out the small remainder of days preaching full-time. Ugh! And, many pulled out their retirement savings to spend it before the end came. The WTS egged them on and like someone once said, their was much more said orally by DOs and COs that really stirred the pot of anticipation that 1975 was the end!

Yes!! My dad was building a house at the time as I was in my mom’s belly. The elders were on their case for doing both these things as the end was fast approaching. The crazy thing was an elder was helping build my parents home at the time and he put a lien on it bc someone else didn’t allow him to start his work. My dad went to him and the elders to discuss it and ofc they took the side of the elder. And ofc that house is still standing today. My dad said that everyone was preparing for the end, they were new believers at that time, so they didn’t quite understand the urgency. Lol My dad said so many bad and unethical practices were allowed if elders were involved. They would ask for more money to complete work, that outsourced would be cheaper, and pressure you to use the brothers for their services. There was so much more, but the point was, they sold their homes, and prepared for the end, and many had nothing left to show for it. It was sad. When I grew up they also discourage retirement savings as you’re not putting your faith in Jehovah and the coming Armageddon.

I left in 1974. Never believed the crap about 1975 being the end. Attended many meetings where the end of the world in 1975 was promoted by elders and visiting speakers. No one wanted to hear my objections as I quoted Matthew 24:36 where Christ said that no one knows the day or the hour, only his Father. I was even warned to keep my mouth shut or be marked as a disruptive person! Just insane how everyone could believe this awful lie. Some went completely overboard selling homes, quitting jobs and emptying out their savings to go full time preaching somewhere. I attended a summer assembly in 1974 and listened to a Bethel toady praising those people who went overboard saying they were a fine example to the rest of us. Those same unfortunate people were badmouthed by Watchtower and the witness community as foolish gossipers who believed their own fantasies. Watchtower even blamed the rank and file for spreading “rumours” about 1975 which in effect caused a lot of witnesses to go along with this travesty denying Watchtower had anything to do with it! That too shocked me no end because I knew of witnesses in my old circuit who ruined their lives over this BS!

@joanferguson4194 exactly my experience, Armaggedon was heavily promoted leading up to 1975. And several sold their homes and lived in caravans to pioneer! So many now are poor with no pensions after slaving for WT. Thank God I faded after this, and eventually got 3 of my now adult kids out of this mental malaise. Well done you!

1975 prepare us for Armageddon

And fave shares in munitions corporations

Absolutely. That

@nicosyiallouri... Isaiah 21:8 upon the Watchtower and standing day and night being on the watch

@@jazzbassf Isaiah 21 is out of context.

Ever heard the expression 'glass half full or half empty'? ExJWs from my experience always have a half empty attitude... its like they see their WHOLE life (from the moment they woke up to bed at night) as a Jehovah's Witness was bad... Proverbs 15:15 GOD'S WORD® Translation Every day is a terrible day for a miserable person, but a cheerful heart has a continual feast. I have a step-son to demonstrate this. From age 7 when I first knew him he was always discontent... He always wanted more. This one time he literally counted the number of chips on his plate compared to his younger brother. So we encouraged to think positively...to 'be happy with what he has'. He grew up forgetting the holidays we went on, the trips we took, the home we gave him, the toys and clothes we bought him, the music lessons we put him in etc. Eventually he left home and went away from the organisation and didn't make contact for years. He got a bit of success in music industry, writing songs for a UK group. One day he messaged. His grandma had died, he had no one around him that cared so where could he go? Of course, back to the ones that had brought him up and always genuinely cared. In his time away he had earned a lot of money and been around a certain crowd. They got him into drugs and the high life. He had gotten involved with countless illegal activities making it hard for him to get legimate work now. He had been drugged and raped multiple times, he had been stabbed and beaten up. He had diseases passed on. In short his life was a mess. He knew that if he had held to the way he was brought up then none of that would have happened. The life he chose was exciting but very dangerous. *Now he sees the life of a Jehovah's Witness as boring but safe.* He's totally conflicted... His younger brother (brought up in the same home) does not have that negative view of his upbringing. He could find happiness in an empty room. It's all about perspective. In regard to Russells past, remember this...he didnt become a Jehovah's Witness because they didn't exist at that time. He was searching for truth from the bible. Realising most churches were teaching things not in the bible he formed a bible study group, hence the name bible students... Over time he learned and changed. The organisation is still learning and changing now over a 100 years later. BUT both were/are heading in the right direction... 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 New Living Translation 9Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality, 10or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people-none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God. *11Some of you were once like that. But you were cleansed; you were made holy; you were made right with God* by calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. My stepson had to learn that. *Not everything is perfect but it may be the best way for now...*

I left Jehovah’s witnesses to join LDS. I prefer it as I agree with it more than other faiths. I am happy and there is a big difference too.

@@joelnoblett8227 Lateral move.

​@@joelnoblett8227they have their own dark history of changes and doctrine shifts so just another cult. Joey was probably more corrupt than Rutherford.

​@@joelnoblett8227Great... So you went from the frying pan into the fire. From one cult to another.

​@@dirkhoekstra727yes but he gets to wives , happy days👯🕺

Your not the only one 😢

I want to escape as well but have no way

​@@KeithBryantOfficialWhy ??

@@hervesawadogo8087 They really destroyed me mentally, psychologically, and emotionally

I wish it was this easy. When you have family in, and you wonder how they'd handle the mentality of being out - it kinda keeps you unwilling to leave.

Jesus can't even get the golden rule right. Do not "do unto others as you'd have done to yourself" you don't get to choose how I'm treated. Do unto others as THEY would have done to themselves. This is so clear and obvious and I can't believe how blind I was when I was down in it.

Actually thousands have been leaving especially since the terrible handling of the plandemic and the Gb pushing the jabs, quite a number know that Russell was into pyramidology but many don’t get concerned about it, most religions have got a dodgy past or even present, like the LDS and 7th day Adventists for example. Maybe those who leave religious groups should concentrate on what Jesus said instead of constantly trying to bring down WT, Jehovah will deal with WT leaders just as he will with ALL religious leaders, well actually it’s Jesus that has the authority to judge everyone so he will deal with them.

They r all apostates now denying salvation by Jesus Christ alone

@@michelejashinsky8409 I keep saying the same thing: They fulfill the biblical definition of an apostate. It took me a while to come to terms with it, but now I see it clearly.

I was told it doesn't matter who becomes president by one devout one!

Me, too! Thanks!!!

Yes that would be when jws were told if your Bible study doesn't progress within 6 months then drop them. Time was so short. He was studying 'the truth' book. Full of lies and 1/2 truths! 😂😂😂

@@julieellis2076 Thank you for this information! My father wanted to remain friends with the Witness, but he said that wasn’t possible unless he converted. Even worse, there was a sweet old woman who would stand just outside my middle school property line and hand out Witness pamphlets. Most of the kids ignored her or took the handout just to throw it on the ground. I would talk with her in the fall of 1975 and she’d tell me she sold her house and donated the money to the Watchtower to prepare for the end. I never saw her again once we returned from the Xmas- New Years break at the end of the year. I often wondered if she was ok.

Ya, the JWs were told to move on if people weren't responding quickly - after all, no time to dilly-dally, the end is coming. LOL

@@astralclub5964that so sad.

@astral…. The ones I knew of who sold everything and went preaching crashed and burned in 1976 never to recover from their financial ruin. That poor old woman probably went on welfare and had a miserable life thereafter. What’s so infuriating is that Watchtower has NEVER issued anything close to an apology for what happened to all those people who foolishly accepted the 1975 end of the world malarkey!

Hey bro have you ever heard of Ry Cooder check out his denomination blues, he does Jesus on the mainline. ❤

Holy spirit is a thing created by man.... I suspect, not believe, in something behind all of this. But religions are false. And everything from it also.

@@moreflamenco I have not heard of him, I will check him out, thanks for the suggestion.

Well said!

And our Mediator !

And He alone.

yeah but humans will not live forever. on earth. they might live for 1000 years but thats about it.

God that came in the flesh

Masons are awesome!

The symbol on the red book at 1:33? That looks like... or is the symbol for Zoroastrianism?

It looks like something from the Third Reich.

Omg. Just like Joseph Smith!!!

Its over the door, I don't know exactly what the thing means myself. But I believe the building was built in the thirties. Its pretty worn but you can see it good.@@genshiyami

Truth and bible is definitely the way to go. Hebrews 6 18.

Your statement, hopefully, the "Superior Authorities" will see right through this and hold the Society to account, really baffles me! Look at the "Superior Authorities" ruling this world. How can you put your trust in any of these governments, They're all corrupt and do not even follow their own written laws!

As a pimo, the sad part is the cult followed that rule for 90 yrs all because Rutherford, a dictating gentile with no facial hair at all, is only jealous of the founders beard and the GB followed that to force it on pimo's and pomo's men (Some who took their own lives, others permanently left and never coming back

I was born in. It isn't as simple as that.

There are so many genuine ppl!

Yes!

Knight

look what the lord says to the Baptist who think they will be the only ones in heaven...Luke 6:46

What?? This is like the lds teachings about planet Kolob. My JW friend said JW don't believe in other planets omg

@@Katiegirlluv Kolob or Bollock ?

Yes, and Jesus never approved of them either.

Who the heck is Robert King?

He sure died a very young Jew, no? Why did he die? What does your document say about that?

Your organization is dying out in therms of members and economic status. How many KH and assembly halls have they not sold last 5 years in your area?

@@jazzbassf isnt jazz music wordly?

Can slow speech down or speed it up in settings. Tap the video, then cog wheel top right hand corner.

I actually appreciated the fast talking as it gets out lots of info in a quick time frame so it doesn't drag on the way others might with a lot of sighs and moments of thinking what to say next. This is professionally well done and benchmark of how to make a video.

@georgebauerschmidt5289 I actually prefer if they spoke slowly, then you can speed the video up to 2X faster, and get through the video in ½ the time.

@@morningglory9288 we all have our preferences now don't we. You can also slow it down just as easily as you can speed it up, so your point really can be used right back at you.
