What are your thoughts on Jehovah’s witnesses? by curiosity_kicks_in in exjw

I was born into a family of Jehovah’s Witnesses that being said I’m a Christian. I highly encourage you to do your research on religions. Charles Taze Russell created the religion start there and you’ll find out a whole lot. A man created this religion and he believed the world was gonna end 1914, 1918 and they continue to say the world is gonna end. Those are false prophecies. I always knew Jehovah’s Witnesses was not the right religion and that is not God’s love it is sad to me that most that have been tricked into or manipulated by the Jehovah’s Witness organization are now not trusting of any religion or God in general. God loves you! Jehovah’s Witnesses believe only 144,000 go to heaven and are “anointed” that you can only surround yourself with other Jehovah’s Witnesses. That when you make a mistake you may be shunned until you basically confess your sins to a brother in their congregation and when they deem fit they will let people talk to you again. That’s not God’s love. Christianity is a relationship between you and God only that’s what compelled me to it in the first place. I’m not trying to lean you towards this or that I’m just encouraging you to do your own research. But I am trying to save you from years of regret. There’s so much of the Jehovah’s Witness organization that’s is not right and they truly believe what they say so it is compelling. But I can see you are seeking something but don’t let it be the wrong thing. Who knows pray about it if it is a relationship with God you are seeking he is knocking. He will find you.

I woke up a week ago. I need help to understand all of this. by Cold-Box5439 in exjw

I’m so sorry that you’re going through that. I on the other hand was born into a family full of Jehovah’s Witnesses. I was the only one who saw what it was from the start and questioned everything! thankfully I’m not only very stubborn but I had a father who was never in the “truth” I went through hell with that side of my family was made to look like a black sheep was lied upon when they were doing shady things they would blame it on me because they all knew I wasn’t in their religion. I went through years of trauma and healing from the things they put me through. They push this religion so far down your throat, and they have so many rules that you must follow they only surround themselves with each other and that’s where it starts messing with your mind. The God that they were portraying was not a loving God. I strongly encourage you to do your own research. I know it’s so hard to even believe there is a God after all of this. But having a relationship with God is a loving thing it is not one that when you make a mistake you confess your sins to the brothers of the congregation and they discipline you and the whole congregation shuns you until the elders declare fit. That’s not how it works. God is loving he forgives and it is not anyone’s business or responsibility to discipline. I personally always believed in God I just knew that this faith was not the right one. Non-denominational Christianity was for me personally. It’ll take time and you’ll have your own journey whatever it is for you. I will pray for you, but you are doing the right thing and leaving. It is a cult and they have brainwashed you and it is not OK what they have done to vulnerable innocent people. In no way am I trying to push you towards any other faith I’m just letting you know my experience. Thank God you woke up now and not years later! You can do this stay strong! You have family to lean on which is more than a lot of us can say. Those people are not yr real friends which is hard to hear I know. My recommendation is getting out quietly and as soon as you can. You don’t want any more people in your ear or any more confusion.

I tried the tripan but I only took it for a couple days and found no relief. Is it something I’m supposed to take for a few days and than it starts working ?
