PRAYER When people say that JW don't pray,it's because of some rigid rules that they place on prayer.You get to understand that JW don't close their eyes or say Amen if a non JW prays.They don't pray when preaching frm house to house.An unbaptized JW cant pray when baptized JW are around.A sister can't pray in the presence of brothers.Most JW pray only when they want to eat. Many don't even knw how to pray because it's the elders & MS that often pray in the Kingdom Hall. One of the things that made me diff frm other JW was that i prayed so often.There was a time i was laughed at by a group of brothers because i said we should pray b4 studying the watchtower at our lodge (not Kingdom Hall), they looked at me as someone who didn't know anything. One of them asked: do we use to pray when we want to conduct morning text? Is it not after the text that we pray? Why should watchtower be different? JW have so many rules abt prayer,yet they will tell u that u are free to pray at all times... 4 Likes |

MY BAPTISM It's a mandate in JW that parent should teach them the truth.Thus,both father & mother had study the bible with me for years b4 they said i should baptize. I don't realy knw why i felt reluctant abt baptism then.Whatever the case,my father took us (my elder bro & me) to the elders to interview us so as to knw if we're qualified 4 baptism. My mom was present in the interview also.After few questions,the elders decided that I was qualified while my brother wasn't because he dressed like worldly people to meetings. I had to answer numerous questions frm the "organize" book. The questions were divided into 3 sections & 3 different elders were assigned to guide me in each section the question & answr task. District convention was at hand & i had to get ready for my baptism.I can't really recall the convention's theme but it must have been "godly obedience", or maybe not. What i can remember very well is the date: 22/11/2008... 2 Likes |

...baptism candidates often sit at auditorium B, directly opposite the platform on Saturday morning. I was told that ATTENDANTS standing beside the the baptism candidates are monitoring their behaviour & could report ur behaviour to the office & disqualify u 4 baptism even few minutes b4 the real thing. So that very morning I behaved myself & tried my best not to sleep so that i won't be disqualified. I can't remember anything that was said in the baptism talk.My mind wasn't at ease that day. It was until we were told to stand up & answ the 2 questns that i came alive again. After replying 2 resounding "yes" & the prayer that followed,the music started.It was either 206 or 207 in the songbook "sing praises to Jehovah". A tingling sensation ran down my spine when the ATTENDANT approched me & said, "pick up ur bag & get ready,we're abt to move" The song was "To Whom Do U Belong" I picked the plastic bag that had my clothes inside & joined the line. We proceeded to the baptism pool... 3 Likes |

MaxInDHouse: yes, every group that doesn't lie like hell is a better group than false jw org. Mat 5:14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Mat 5:15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Mat 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. lost false jw mad max you people often wrongly use God's word, of course you habitual liars are not light, you are the devil's darkness Joh 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, that is his natural way of speaking, for he is a liar and the father of lies. 4 Likes |

I do not seek sorry from an individual that says at 2:00 :00 am I am yet to be a Jehovah’s witness and by 2: 00 : 30 am I am a Jehovah’s witness Na reasonable people we need here. Your reasonableness is seen in name calling, tags, labels people because they debunked your responses that cannot withstand scrutiny. Awon all Jehovah’s witnesses that leaves the organization are ATHEIST . When shown others even have religious organization in Nigeria reasonableness peddling peddler seek reasonable people. You shouldn't just crawl out of your hole and start spewing out rubbish. I know awon reasonable people like you respond to RUBBISH and go after people peddling rubbish. Do you hava a better replacement for JW? Your Jesus Christ captured in your Bible never in any part of that bible states that you the reasonable peddling peddler should be looking for replacement of JW he never preached about or that was non existent. . JW org still remains the only Christian group pragmatically following Jesus teachings and God's words. Teaching such as: 1. salvation depends on a VISIBLE organisation called WTBTS. 2: Jesus returned invisibly in 1914 and will still return in the future. 3. That the last day began in 1914. 4. That only Jehovah’s witnesses uses Jehovah in their worship yet Janosk somehow knows Christendom equally uses on Sundays 5. That blood fractions transfusions equates to ABSTAINING from blood? 6. That only Jehovah’s witnesses preach about God's kingdom 7. That vaccination is of no benefit, it evil and barbaric. 8. That excommunication and disfellowshipment is paganism and had no business or root in CHRISTIANITY 9. That anyone calling on the name of Jesus Christ cannot be saved but must vow to be a Jehovah’s witness |

...Our old baptism pool wasn't in front of the platform as it is now. It was located far frm the auditorium & a small building erected beside it where we changed our clothes. The baptism pool was just a swimming pool with a different name,only that we were told not to swim inside it. Photographers were present & flashed their camera light here & there. When I stepped out of the water i was snapped but i didn't look back at the photographer. Brothers & sisters shook my hand & told me "welcome".

...after my baptism i was made to undstnd that i'm no longer a child,i could be disfellowshiped or reproved if i broke any of "Jehovah's law". There were many privileges of service opened to a baptized brother in the cong. U could rove mic or control the sound system; read paragraphs in cong bible study & watchtower study; become an aux or regular pioneer,etc. There were many brothers in my cong so privileges were hot cake. I didn't bother competing with them because relationship with Jehovah was more important than any privilege.I was far to brilliant & answered tough questions in meetings correctly.Also,I was a skillful reader who handled bible reading with dramatic effect. I was the centre of everyone's attention & that meant envy & jealousy for other young ones in the cong. I once heard that the Cordinator said in their elders meeting that i was fit to be a MS if not for my age. "if only he is a bit older",he said... 4 Likes |

cornelboy:When Jesus commissioned Christianity he told his Apostles: “Have no fear, little flock, for your Father has approved of giving you the Kingdom" Luke 12:32 Only few of his disciples will rule with him in his kingdom and of course it's by their FRUIT that you will know them {Matthew 7:16} so if they're all complaining about the submission of millions across the globe being obedient to a body of overseers {Zechariah 8:23} and everyone throughout the earth can SEE that this group is actively performing globally. Matthew 5:14-16 Please my brother let them continue enjoying the SUPERSTORY, Apostle Paul already told us how it will go during the endtime {2Timothy 4:3-4} just count the series it's their blessings! ©https://www.nairaland.com/7267762/experience-eckankar-religion ©https://www.nairaland.com/7253447/experience-olumba-obu-ooo ©https://www.nairaland.com/7279788/experience-wind-change-temple-universe ©https://www.nairaland.com/7296359/experience-jehovahs-witnesses-organization 1 Like |

Templee333: The bolded is very common in the Cult. If you are very good at what you do or giving talks, you will attract a good number of jealous JWs that will treat you like trash and talk to you as if you are responsible for their own personal problems. A lot of the JW Men suffer from inferiority complex and can be very competitive. They really carry the whole Elders and Ministerial servants positions like political appointments since a lot of them are nothing outside the Cult! Very toxic environment. My own Brothers faced the same shit. A so called God's organisation united with Brotherly Love. Jokers! 3 Likes |

Templee333: To add to this, once you are new and have shown yourself to be an eloquent speaker, good reader or any other talents you show, just be ready to be targeted by some good for nothing JW Brother/Brothers. You will experience Jealousy. Sometimes your efforts will be heavily criticised and there will attempts to find loopholes in whatever you do. This happens a lot. The Kingdom Hall is just like a work place. Competition. Everyone wants to be shining examples to boost their egos. I told y'all this is not a religion but a corporation. This explains why lots of JW males are running away from the Elders and Ministerial servants Positions. They all saw the Toxic environment that these positions breed. Watchtower keeps begging for more Elders and Ministerial servants but JW Males say "Nope". So, a lot of congregations are lacking Man power. 1 Like |

MaxInDHouse: But you are in a Satanic Cult. Your beloved Watchtower dabbles in spiritism to dish you JWs Rotten spiritual food at the proper time. You are in an Antichrist Cult that seeks to replace Jesus. Tell me, your Freemason god below was bold enough to admit that Watchtower dabbles in Angel Magic by mentioning something that is completely foreign to the Bible/Christianity (Angel number 777). What is the One True religion doing with 666 and Angel number 777? Remember, Watchtower says they get their doctrines from Angels as channel of communication and Jesus chased away the Holy Spirit when he came invisibly which explains why they are NOT inspired. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNcFrwFvOKw 1 Like

ALWAYS GUILTY I don't knw if other JW felt that way but i always thought i was a sinner even when i didn't knw the exact sin i'd commited. Even tho many JW didnt give serious attention to all the "sins" that JW taught us to avoid,i took them serious.I wasn't so competent in telling lies like other brothers because it made me feel guilty.I didnt cheat on exams because we were taught not to do so & when i told other JW at school to stop cheating they considered me a fool. Despite all my effort to lead an exemplary life as a JW i still felt guilty as if i was worse than others... 4 Likes |

Templee333: Yes. I have always felt guilty over something even though I did nothing or even though I felt I tried my best in Jehovah's service. But one thing you must understand is that this is exactly how the Cult works. The Cult does what we call Fear, Obligation and Guilt. That is how the Cult thrives to keep JWs in. Look at all the things you were taught. In every meeting you attend, you are always told that your best is Not good enough. Why? Because it is a Cult! All Cults make their members feel guilty, fear over something imagined and are always obligated to do one thing or the other. Remember these words in Watchtower magazines, "Is there anyway you can spend your free time for Jehovah? Is there a way you can do more for Jehovah? Is there a way you can simplify your life for Jehovah? Is there anything you are doing now that doesn't please Jehovah? Are you making sure of the most important things? Is your job taking you away from Jehovah or preventing ypu from having full share in the ministry? Can you simplify your life, loose your job and come to work for Jehovah in full-time service? Can you resign from your work and come and work for us at Bethel? Bro, once you understand that this is a Cult, you will understand why you are always feeling guilty. Once I woke up from the Cult, do you know how I felt? Relief. Why? Because after reading other translations of the Bible, I realised that Our works alone will not save us. JW Cult is a Works based religion. Jesus never made so much demands. His words were simple and straightforward. His yoke is Light not heavy. I never understood when Jesus said his Yoke is Light as a JW because as A JW, you are carrying load of Watchtower with their numerous demands. It wasn't until I found the truth about Watchtower and read the Bible again without Watchtower's interpretation that I understood Jesus. 4 Likes |
