Let's see the Watchtower, April 1, 1967.

"In fact, in this year 1967 we are actually living in the final part of that time! This can be compared to, not just the last day of a week, but, rather, the last part of the last day."

In the 2021 annual meeting Anthony Morris said something about this expression

Last of the last days, beautiful expression but words are powerful.

Now let's see the 2020 Governing Body Update #1

Aren't Stephen Lett's words powerful?

They don't know what they are talking about. They contradict themselves, repeat what they said in 1967 and in another years.

So what do we know?

This isn't the truth.

With that said, read their own publications and you will see that they taught that the world would end in years like 1914, 1925, 1941, 1975 or 2000.

Just some examples for you :)

Now let's see what the Bible says in

They are just liars.

I know my blog may be scary, but let me state that I am not disfellowshipped. I am however no longer one of Jehovah's Witnesses, I just never sent the letter for my own personal reasons. I am not an evil worldly person, I'm merely a 25 year old woman who works as a cashier at a grocery store. I have a little apartment with my golden retriever mix. I just wanted to write a simple letter to the JW's on here, and maybe shed some light, without bias or converting or any of that, as to my life as a witness.

I was raised as a witness to start. I grew up with two witness parents who were very great and tried their best to provide me with a good home. I had a good, relatively uneventful childhood.

I was baptized at 16. Due to an elder that eventually lost his privileges, I was not allowed to officially be counted as a pioneer until I was 20, even though for 4 years I held 75-100 hours every month in the ministry, conducted studies and numerous RVs, cleaned the hall on the weekends, worked part time and supported the 5am service group 6 days a week.

Eventually I became a pioneer in the foreign language congregation. I was one of the few who saw that simple group become an established congregation. We used to conduct meetings in the small backroom while the English speaking congregation held their meetings in the large auditorium. I was proud to support that small group and see it become its own congregation.

I switched jobs and worked full time as an overnight stocker. I was exhausted, stressed out from work and still putting in the hours to maintain my pioneering. I was studying Russian everyday, translating, preparing demos, writing out comments in Russian and attending English, Russian and Spanish meetings, which the Russian meetings I will note were over an hour away from my home in downtown at night. I attended all three, as my father was in the English congregation, my mother preferred and understood Spanish better but my publisher card was in the Russian cong. I would attend three TMS meetings a week and two WT meetings on the weekend. I was going out in service in Russian, English and Spanish. I was a en exemplary pioneer. I was even talked to pn occasion by the CO and my local elders as possibly attending Bethel and submitting an application which I eventually did. I was best friends with many exemplary pioneers, basically I was in the middle of it all.

I felt like I had it all.

Yet, at 22 I left.

I have many reasons why I left. I was very inquisitive, perhaps too inquisitive to be a witness. I questioned too much, thought too much, researched too much.

If you are an active JW I commend you for your dedication to one thing so closely. If you are considering baptism please do your research. Listen to your gut. Ask questions. This is your life we're talking about, you have questions that need to be answered. Ask the elders, ask on here to safe and trusted blogs. Look up information from many sources, not just one. Always check your facts.

Whatever you decide, be well and be safe. My ask is always open to genuine people. I will not bite or criticize. I will not persuade or convert.

Just please be careful and make the best informed decision you can.

I applaud this character development.

I didn't leave God. I left a publishing company.

The second (literally the second) I was told outright that the JW organisation is a publishing company, it absolutely changed my life and the way I looked at life.

The governing body aren't religious leaders or prophets or whatever. They're CEOs. They run a business. They're no more holy than me, regardless of what I think.

If you wanna talk about cult and publishing companies talk about Protestant Christian’s who literally pay their consumers hundreds for congregations and movies and books simply just to learn about God.

Perhaps the most popular example of modern day Arianism is the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society.  Just like the Arians of old they believe that Jesus was a created being. #blog #apologetics watchtower

A few months ago I was fortunate enough to interview popular apologist Gary Michuta.  Gary is a brilliant Catholic apologist, speaker, radio show host, and author.  He has a great deal of  experience in studying and debating the teachings of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society.  We know them as Jehovah’s witnesses. A couple months ago I interviewed Kimberlee Jones who is a Catholic Convert. …
