Dr. Chuck Love, a JW for 30 years, served as a pioneer and elder in Wisconsin and Arizona. He wanted to prove the WT right, but the Book of Romans changed his life. Author of the book 20 Questions Jehovah's Witnesses Cannot Answer.
What really struck me with Chuck's testimony was when he mentioned the Bible study group that left only 40 people in the congregation. That's insane. When you have that many people waking up at one time and splintering off from JWs, then clearly something's amiss. Obviously, there is something wrong with Watchtower and it's resonating with folks. This past Sunday, a visiting speaker told me that there are only 49 publishers in his congregation. I couldn't wrap my mind around it. I have never heard of a congregation with that few people. I thought my congregation was shrinking, with only 79 publishers, but his took the cake.. A sister in my congregation asked me "Where is everyone?? Where are our friends going?" People are starting to realize that the organization is declining. Hopefully soon, they see that it's doing the opposite of what the society says it's doing. Its not increasing at a rapid rate. Yes, people are still coming in, but the hundreds of thousands who leave are never accounted for in yearbooks and magazine articles. The GB doesn't want the rank and file to see that the waters are actually drying up.. Sound familiar? (Euphrates)..
Funny thing... When I was a Witness, one of the Elders in the JW's told me to read the Bible cover to cover...so I read TNWT and discovered it was all wrong and that was one of the things that got me out.
@Michael H. There are verses in the NWT that contradict each other as far as Jesus. Their John 1:3 is contradicted by their Col 1:16 where the word OTHER is inserted. Even in their John 1:3 it says He (Word ) created ALL Things and without Him NOTHING has come into existence that has existed. Their Col 1:16 says that Jesus created all OTHER things. Contradiction. Which is it? That contradiction plants the seed for search.
JW are taught Jesus is the mediator ONLY for the anointed, a clear contradiction to 1 Tim 2:5, this is found in their Insight Book under the heading, Mediator, Also found in the October 2014 Watchtower, and Worldwide Security Under the Prince of Peace Book page 10. Just ONE of Many False Teachings. Most of these people, myself included, have been JW for Many years and are VERY familiar with the teachings. Come to Jesus for salvation. Acts 4:12, Acts 16:30,31 Romans 10:9,
thank you for the video I have ben looking for JW alternative and i think i know what to do now not that i need a church but i want some place to go with other ex-witnesses thank you I'll look in the detroit area now that i know groups like this exits
The trinity doctrine does not make a person a Christian. Polytheism is not in accord to the Shema, "Hear O Isaell, your God is One." Jesus, was a Judean, therefore he regularly recited the Shema . I enjoyed your presentation but worry that you have not listened to Jesus words as to who his God is and ours. (John 20:17)( Rev 3:12)
And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence. 1TIM 2:12 A woman should learn in silence with full submission 1TIM 2:11 1COR 14:34 the women should be silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak, but should be submissive, as the law also says. 1COR14:35 And if they want to learn something, they should ask their own husbands at home, for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church meeting
Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals1COR 6:9
"But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved. matthew 24:13 james 2:20Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless? John 3:5 Jesus answered: “Most truly I say to you, Unless anyone is born from water and spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God moses was not born again "Matt 16:27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works."
Jehovah's Witnesses do a good job taking the message to the people. Jehovah will reward all those who do this work but he will discipline those who follow doctrines that are cruel. The JW organisation should be welcoming and loving. But I experienced rejection and condemnation from the beginning of association. I would love to tell my full story but these blogs do not allow enought space.
yah in the time of the end as been foretold.. sheepgoats voluntarily leave b-coz he is not really belong to Jehovah God and Jesus Christ.. u forgot John 17:3 means everlasting life......

WE SURVIVE........HE HE HE HE HE
