Jehovah's Witness Elders Break All Their Own Rules (I Was Removed)

In this video I talk about the plethora of rules the elders in my local congregation broke in removing (disfellowshipping) me.
I also discuss a loophole that makes it possible for them to remove anyone they would like to, as long as they view them as an apostate.

Coming from a family full of elders, I can confirm that elders are the ones who break the rules more than anyone else!

Interesting! I always thought that DA''d yourself meant you sent a letter to the Society to quit. I see it in different light now. Also, if they don't have additional family to blackmail you, with inside of any Kingdom Hall, and your family is all on the outside like mine, you are no fun to "harrass" you are just a gray rock that rolled away.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I have been waking up for a little over a year and have listened to many stories about people being Disfellowshiped(im refusing to use thier new words) or Dissociated. Its very apparent that Elders do what ever is best for them,this can be very harmful or even life threatening if the person is in an abusive relationship or needs a blood transfusion. This cult is so good at making you feel bad for standing up and doing what is truly right. Thanks for having the courage to do so,and also showing us behind the curtain and what can really happen. Wish you well on the rest of your Journey and a happy life surrounded by people who will love you no matter what.

I wish you knew how much I appreciate you and all others that felt that harsh treatment. It should be illegal how they are allowed to destroy a reputation. But then really it's is built into the cult to not to question or be destroyed too. Iam hurting so bad from my long retionship with what I thought were my friends the betrayal at 63 ..a widower now but In my 25 year of life I wanted to live Jesus and serve others with love ..I did so as did my wife . But when my wife went seeking help fir alcoholism she was given no love only harsh discipline. It's true she took up smoking but did quit all before she died as they put it" died without regaining God's favor" iam broken but in a million pieces but new friends and loving people have eneted my life with joys . I just don't know how to handle the past abuse and upcoming slander when they contact me as they did you. Where do broken abused people go ? At 63 and widowed with not one comforting word from the group I once poured myself into . ( one person secretly left a voice message stating perhaps Jah will have compadion on her) omg the pain ..

[@Eric_01]

​@@kevinhahn3286 First, you have to treat that relationship with the org as the death of an enemy. It happened, it will leave a scar, but nothing can be done but realize you were lied to and taken advantage of. Second, the state of your wife with any god upon her death could not possibly be determined or labeled by any group of people on the planet. That they claim she was without god's favor has absolutely no foundation and is pure bullsh!t. At this point, just keep educating yourself on the origins and authenticity of the bible, the concepts of gods and creators, and the number of failed prophecies. In short, the bible is nonsense and the proof is all around you, take it in. Jehovah is not real. Do specific research on the origin of YHWH and the origin of monotheism. Jehovah has never been what you've taught. Don't even worry about his/her opinion on whether or not your wife smoked or not.

[@formerjw3874]

I know this post isn’t about me but boy, can I relate to Caleb’s experiences. In my case (short version) I broke up an Elders meeting one night after the regular meeting and asked for help getting back on track as one of Jehovahs Witnesses. I mentioned some specific things like check up on me and offer to go out with me in the door to door work which I found very difficult. I received pats on the back and assurances that they were there to help. One Elder went so far as to say that he wished more Elders meetings were about someone reaching out for help. Fast forward about a year and I received exactly zero help. Other than saying hi when I came to the meetings there was literally no attempts made to follow through. Not one. But because I had developed a non sexual relationship with a woman outside of my marriage, which I acknowledge is not a good thing (I’d have write a book to explain that part) what I did receive was a judicial meeting and subsequent disfellowshipping. My point simply being that the Emperor really doesn’t have any clothes when it comes to the retention part of Jehovah’s Witnesses as an organization.

[@tye2674]

Caleb I’m a Ex JW also and was recently DF. I would love to do an interview with you on your show. I got disfellowshiped for praying for people at the hall and they got healed by the Holy Spirit. I wrote letters to the govern body before it happened and told them that it was possible. They arrogantly ignored me and told me to my face that it wasn’t real. So I prayed for older ones at the hall and they became healed. When the govern body found out that it was real they made the elders df me without even meeeting with me. They warned the congregation and threatened everyone saying that if they speak out they will get df also. All of this is because the govern body doesn’t want to be wrong so they are trying to sweep this under the rug just like with the child molestsation charges. The governing body reported that if this gets out it’ll destroy the organization. They said it themselves. So they even know. This is why they disfellowshiped me to keep this hidden. I’m not going to keep silent on this. I’m spreading this out. I would be happy to do an interview with you on your show. I’m already doing interviews on two other ex jws on there channels. This is a unique story and it’s going to help wake a lot of people up

[@philoalethia]

The verse that JW's appeal to to justify shunning has to do with those who still claim to be part of the congregation, yet are living a publicly immoral life. The passage gives the examples of sexual immorality, greed, drunkenness, and similar. It does NOT say to shun those who are no longer members/participants in the group, or to shun people on the basis of theological disagreements. Shunning those who have left or are otherwise no longer participating or merely on the basis of theological controversy is completely unbiblical.

Everyone disfellowshipped one needs to beware of this rule! The original elders are the only ones who are allowed to know why you got disfellowshipped! Never admit to a new committee. When a disfellowshipped one goes to a different Kingdom Hall the new three elders does not have the right to know why you got disfellowshipped. Yet, new elders contact original elder by phone or letter. Then the original elders share why you got disfellowshipped with them. They claim it is to try to help the disfellowshipped ones, yet their gossip only hinders. Therefore, they break their rules and try to get disfellowshipped ones to keep talking about their errors. Disfellowshipped ones can legally sue for breaking the rules, but getting elders letters is needed! I went through reinstatement and was shocked when one elder who was angry and wanted to use power over me threw an original letter on my lap! It was the 70s and I did not read the elders manual, and I did not realize it was a cult! Later, It actually caused me to have trauma that they went against their own rules and continue to emotionally abuse me.

Back in the late 1980's, I stopped going to the meetings. An elder invited me over to his family's apartment to talk with me. No other elders were there. When I said to him that I didn't want to go to the meetings anymore or do the preaching work, he said that I should write a letter of disassociation. I told him, "no, I'm not going to do that." It was their way of protecting the congregation while at the same time, allowing them to shun me, written by my own hand. I saw through that immediately because it would have also meant that my own mother would have to shun me, & that would have been the death of her. This is an insidious religion, hiding behind a facade of love.

[@Rupunzelsawake]

The elders broke the rules with me. Two of the elders on my jc were the two that "investigated " me. On two occasions they visited me at home to hear about my feelings and concerns . They were elders and so I was honest with them about my loss of confidence in the gb and that I could no longer believe that they are the only channel and that the jws are the only true religion. I had not shared this thought with others in the congregation, plus, I had not been attending meetings for about 3 months . So these two elders served as the witnesses against me, having heard my views during their supposed shepherding call, AND as the judge, jury and executioner. That was breaking their own rules. Interestingly, it was never offered to me as an option that I could just remain inactive, and essentially be left alone. It was either "resign or get kicked out!" I think they preemptively kicked me out, just in case I would talk. Disfellowshipping me so unjustly for alleged apostasy only ensured that I did speak out .

Yeah Caleb; I can truly relate to the hypocrisy you've experienced as well as the unjust, un-Christian manner in which the "elders" act toward congregation members. I am an ex-Bethelite, MS and ex-elder for 14 years and during the Covid debacle, this pin head elders started harassing me over his ignorant views of the pandemic and the unlawful and unscientific mandates that were being pushed at the time. One night, while my wife and I were having our family study, they called me and invited me to a Zoom teleconference meeting. Turns out it was a secret judicial meeting accusing me of "violating neutrality"! "Neutrality"? Why don't they look for and find that word in the Bible?? Much less defined by the scripture writers!! Long story short, after NOT PRESENTING ANY EVIDENCE AGAINST ME, and AFTER NOT NAMING JUST WHAT I DID WRONG; they just blurted out, "You're no longer one of JW's" !!! WTH??? Had done nothing unscriptural; no serious sin was committed showing that I was somehow an unrepentant, hardened sinner who threatened the congregation; but because of some personal vendetta and offended conscience; these quack slanders just decided that after 55 years of being an ACTIVE and ZEALOUS PUBLISHER; never missing a month of field service in all that time; that "I'M NO LONGER A WITNESS FOR JEHOVAH" ??????????????????????????????????? Let me see,........Didn't Satan himself accuse the Almighty of ruling with tyrannical motive; that Jehovah wasn't a fair God in setting up moral laws for his creation? DIDN'T SATEN HIMSELF "ACCUSE" Jehovah of bribing people to gain their worship? (See the book of Job) Was not Satan called the "accuser" of God's people at Revelation 12: 10?? And doesn't the name "Devil", mean "slanderer"??? So who are these elders servants of?? God or the Devil? You decide. Thanks for releasing this video Caleb, as you have joined the thousands of ex-JW's who were unscripturally removed for disturbing the elder's consciences, instead of actually willfully violating God's moral standards!!

You said it yourself in this video. You've made these videos and they've seen them. They can view your comments in the videos as disassociation. You made your own bed my friend. I don't agree with any JW internal judging, but you were aware of the possible consequences of your own actions in making these videos.

[@Eric_01]

The videos came after everything he's describing.

The elders are mam made GOD'S 😅

[@jeffnoble9757]

You claim the elders broke their own rules but gave no examples of what rules are being broken? If you disagree with the JW's go find another religion! there's a thousand of them(like fleas on a dog)

Don't laugh so often and sheepish Caleb.

[@zee.___moose941]

What's up w all the people who make videos and that weird laugh they keep doing?

[@Zeemy-ld6jx]

Because you can't believe what's happening to you. I always make a weird chuckle too when things get ridiculously overwhelming.

It's also a trait I notice more so among the men that were public speakers, listen to an elders on stage talk and you'll see it's an embedded thing..... The whole asking a question then answering it for themselves also follows the format of the study material.

Só IF they not informe you that is a judicial meeting, so technically you Just cant DENY tô join in a thing that you was not invite tô do.

Caleb, here's a pile of scriptural references I've discovered that exposes what they did as wrong, as disobeying scriptural counsel on judging, and making false and empty conclusions based on their personal opinions, conscience or bias: Romans 14: 2-12;........1 Corinth. 4: 3-6; James 4: 11, 12;..........1 Timothy 5: 21;......1 Tim. 6: 3-5;......Matt. 15: 8, 9. In your case and mine. Thanks.
