Whenever you’re in doubt about any action, ask yourself: Is it true? Is it necessary? Is it kind? You can also ask, What would love do now?

Do everything, large or small, as if you were doing it for God alone. That means the task will be done with love, joy, and (don’t forget) thoroughness.

Soul, a particle of God, is blessed with the gift of creative imagination, which finds a solution for every problem.

--Harold Klemp

Whatever path to God you follow ought to make you able to stand on your own feet here as well as in the inner worlds; here and now, in this lifetime, before you drop the body in death.

If the path isn’t able to do that, then you ought to keep looking until you find one that gives you this ability.

all u said above will not sound normal to a JW.

My dear I know fully well. These writings are not even meant for them. Those that it is meant for will read it and understand it. As has happened several times here in nairaland.

Truth has levels. When you are through with one level you move up to the next level. As above so below. Just like our school system. When you are done with primary school you move on to secondary and university level.
Someone in primary school can never make sense of what someone in university knows as reality. For example telling a child in primary school that 1-4 is equal to -3.
He will tell you it is impossible and that -3 does not exist. But when he gets to secondary school the concept of negative numbers will then make sense to him.

The same thing happens in spirituality.
That is why I always advise anyone to take any path he finds himself seriously and learn everything he can about it . when it is time to move on to the next level the Holy Spirit will nudge you on.
There is nothing to bother about and no one is lost or condemned.
We are all encompassed in the unlimited divine Love of God and of course Soul Exist because of God's love for It.

Remain Blessed

So I'm a nutshell someone can still worship your God acceptably as a JW, right?

This issue of "your God" is one of the things that is causing mayhem in religion. The next is "my God is bigger and better than yours"
Man in the name of religion has created a personal God made in the image and likeness of himself. From this perspective any body that does not buy into this personal perception of God is not fit to be alive. He is called an unbeliever and discriminated against.
When you clear your mind of all you think you know about God and ask God to reveal Itself to you without any preconceived notions then your journey from religion to spirituality starts.
And the issue of worship.
The highest form of worship is loving service to all life. For when you are loving and serving God's creation, you are worshipping God.
You don't need any religion or church to achieve this. All you need is love and an open heart.

"Spirit will work with each person, with each one of you, in a way that is right for you."
--Harold Klemp

The purpose of divine love is to encourage the independence and ability of another to survive and thrive spiritually. How? It is by way of God’s Light and Sound, the two elements that are the Holy Spirit, the Voice of God, the Creative Force in all the universes, the ECK.

To each his own headache and panadol
I stopped bothering myself about it a long time ago.
When a soul is ready and the inner preparations has been made. The truth will be revealed and it will be understood by the individual. Before then any other thing you are doing is a waste of time.
Enjoy wherever you are and give love to all life. That is all that matters.
Any thing else is illusion.

"What prepares you for the true path of God? The experiences of life."
--Harold Klemp

If fear and guilt is a part of your upbringing, it can also cause a lot of problems for you in such things as work and health.

If you can learn to forgive yourself first—and to accept forgiveness—then maybe you can forgive others. Then you can find this healing, because the love of God comes through the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit.

Most religionists do cross from one religion to another as if they're on a broad road where they can switch lanes but you can never ever find anyone leaving Jehovah's Witnesses organization for any other religion, they may support those criticizing JWs from all other religions even the ones condemned by the churches. WHY? Because JW is the narrow road where you can't sit on the fence, it's either you're in or out just as Jesus described the two roads!

I find this assertion so funny.
I don't really like talking about my experience with JW because of the complex they usually have. Which has been exhibited here in this thread several times and finally being crowned with the statement above.

I usually stay away from religious arguments which to me is a waste of spiritual energy and religious argument is the area of specialty of JW. I know because I also passed through their teachings in my spiritual journey.

My grandfather brought JW to my village. He was their pioneer in my Village. He brought his whole family with him including my father.
My grandfather eventually left JW and started studying metaphysics.

My father continued with JW until he too left and joined my grandfather in studying metaphysics.
As a child my father grounded me in JW teachings.
I grew up with JW literature. My book of Bible stories, watch tower and awake wete never in short supply in my house. My father ensured I studied them closely.

Every Sunday morning even when he has left JW he used to open his doors to them and I watched them slugging it out. Arguments upon arguments. They were perplexed on why he left and he kept pointing out to them the importance of not taking the Bible literally but instead meditating and getting insights from the Holy Spirit.
He was simply wasting his time.

I started reading the Bible and meditating on the verses reading a chapter a day from very early in life. I will restart from beginning once I finish.
The insights I was getting was what led me on the search for the Holy Spirit. Which was clearly stated in the Bible as the comforter that will lead you to all truth.
My search lead me through many religions and paths. My search ended in Eckankar.
It was in Eckankar that I started experiencing first hand the full manifestation of the Holy Spirit which can be seen as a light in the spiritual eyes and heard as a sound. Just like the apostles experienced during the Pentecost
Since then my life has never been the same again.
I don't bother arguing with anybody over these issues because you can never understand it if you have never experienced it.
So to each his own belief.
What matters is loving God and loving your neighbor as yourself without discrimination or bias. Even if the person left your church. Still love the person because God is love.
That is all that matters. Anything else is simply illusion.

Look within for the answer whenever something comes up: What am I learning here? How can I get on top of this situation?

Love—The Keystone of Life

"Truth is never hidden. It's always available for the Soul who wants to take the next step."
--Harold Klemp

if the physical plane is described as "plane of time,space & matter,ILLUSION of reality", how then could someone in the physical world be sure that what he sees,hear,feel,or think is REALLY the truth

Truth is relative to the plane in which it is being expressed and the channels through which it is being expressed. This is what contributes to its illusionary nature in the lower world.
So what may be truth in the physical plane may not be truth in the Astral plane or causal plane. So as you expand in consciousness your understanding and awareness of truth also expand.
The Absolute truth that never changes no matter the plane up to the heart of God is that God is Love and Soul Exist because of God's Love for It.
Anything whose foundation is not built on love is an illusion.

Part of the process of unfolding spiritually is to learn what makes your life more interesting and better, and also the things to stay away from.

Nobody should carry religion on their head. Religion is just man trying to understand the concept of God and creation hence is man made and severely limited to the level of understanding of the founder.
Nobody should blame anybody for becoming an atheist as those who claim to believe in God have not shown that believing in God has made them better than those who don't believe in God.

"Soul is immortal. It has no beginning nor ending."
-Harold Klemp

In a sense, this life is a dream. If the so-called dreams we have are figments of the imagination, then so is this life.

But on the other hand if this life is real, then perhaps there is more reality to the dream life than we have been able to recognize or accept in the past.
