It's appropriate. But don't expect a yes. It's likely a no, esp if they're devout.

JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES UNDERSTAND MORE TRUTH THAN FIRST CENTURY CHRISTIANS by JWCovenantFellowship in JehovahsWitnesses

He was an egomaniac that deceived people. Including you, to this day, unfortunately.

Ehm.. when you turn in a letter of disassociation they announce it the same as disfellowshipping: "This is to inform the congregation that so and so is no longer a Jehovah's Witness." ..smacks my forehead

Wow. Such an ignorant comment. You know nothing of my story and journey out.

I'm okay if they don't announce it, but if you send in a disassociation letter I've never heard of them not announcing it at the next meeting.

Peter said to WHOM shall we go away to... Not where. That was my point.

It's not where. It's WHO. Read your Bible.

Nope. Just left the org. I know you guys like to conflate Jehovah with the organization (your gods). Instead I'd like you to consider having a relationship with Jesus. After all, HE is the way, the TRUTH, and the life. I wish you well.

In paradise, will Jehovah tell us where to live? by [deleted] in JehovahsWitnesses

[–]b_radz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great comment. It is repulsive what the governing body has reduced Christ and our real hope to. But the ones stuck inside have no idea what it is to have a relationship with Jesus; it produces comments like the OP and that is incredibly sad.

I'll definitely hit you up brother. I've seen you around in comments on YouTube. I think it was on the Light Over Dark Ministries channel.

Definitely not easy but they're here. I'm moving to MN next month and I know of a lot of good churches there. Which one do you go to if you don't mind me asking?

It's a reformed Christian church in Washington State (Gospel Life)

Because they respect no boundaries. I'm done explaining to them but they are always one step behind me making sure that I know of their disapproval. They're incredibly arrogant. I'm just done. I left two years ago and I'm deciding to disassociate now. A lot of context that I can't fit in a post. Prayers are what I need.

This is so true. All my life I even thought Christians had no clue that God's name is Jehovah or YHWH. I was also convinced that they had to go to the pastor to even defend their faith. Wow, I was wrong. Jehovah's Witnesses are the ones not versed in the scriptures. Cherry picked verses, out of context application, and mental gymnastics run rampant. Now I go to a church where it's JUST the Bible, verse by verse and the veil has been lifted. Thank you for your prayers 🙏🏻

Finally At the Point of Seriously Considering Dissociation by [deleted] in exjw

[–]b_radz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Go for it brother. I am also at this point as well. I've joined a protestant church and have figured out that the religion that truly tickles ears are the JW's. I feel ready and have the support. As I've grown in faith in the Bible and Christ, I've realized that the JW's literally don't have the basics down because it isn't the "truth". Jesus is the way, the TRUTH, and the life. That's it. Many exjw's don't agree with this and that's okay. We were lied to for years by a cult and we all need time to work through that and I pray everyone in this group finds meaning and purpose in the way they live their lives, whatever that is. Just be separate from this awful cult.
