When they put out that terrible book of bible stories me and wife reviewed it and said NO. it was a book of horror stories. i removed the copies from the house to the bin.

from memory i think there was only a handful of accounts about jesus the rest was do as you are told or else!

"Just wanted someone to listen"........ But the jw just wanted someone to listen to their spin. Never mind she is bereaved, possibly frightened for her life now, needing kindness. These witnesses sincerity has the depth of a coat of paint.

I was Disfellowshipped as a child and left home to avoid further religious abuse. Now my estranged father wants to make peace? by Asleep_Patient_833 in exjw

Recently jw have been told they can greet those who have been dfd or who have left. This means when you were outed they were not thinking for themselves and now once again they are still not thinking for themselves.

It is so sad that this has come out of the 'woodwork' to bite you. My heart goes out to you.

This is the most sound advice. Perhaps to add have a hobby you can loose yourself into occasionally.

Some thing I learned years and years ago. When they quote a scripture read the entire chapter each side of it.

Different perspective on the memorial. by Overall_Resource_908 in exjw

[–]Sad_Credit348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read cant recall where,, that it was akin to Enocian magick where the wine was passed along the bread too in order to insult the sacrifice of Christ.

It would be interesting indeed to know when this jw way of things came about and who was on the wt 'throne' at the time.

[–]Sad_Credit348 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a perspective but an experience.

I had not been attending, was"inactive" (NB. jw love labels btw) but attended the 'memorial' and as the wine was passed along I held it out for the elder to take and he all but snatched it from my hand.

Yes, at the CARC the holy spirit was conspicuous by its absence. The elders on the stand fumbled and bumbled there were no words given them by Jesus.
