Thank you Sven. My mother made me have a Bible study when I was 16. The teacher - a "Special Pioneer" 🙄, told me that if she had not been born into the JW's she would not have been interested if JWs knocked on her door...... I realize how brainwashed she was, to go along with it, for her mother I expect - my mum didn't let me have a choice, either 😕

Agree on every point: As a 'bible study' visiting every meeting I quickly sensed the control and pressure to get baptised. Faded during the pandemic (thank Jehovah for the Zoom meetings! 😅). Definitely woke up after the pandemic. Never went to in-person meetings again.😊❤🇳🇱

Yes, I followed because of my mom, dad grandma and friends and wife. I’m 69 now. I’m definitely out in my head. Because my son is an elder and a pioneer, I still go to the meetings

My question that JW NEVER answer. I am aware its a rude question, but it is how I see it. Does 11 white guys and a diversity hire in upstate New York have the monopoly on Bible truth?

Everything I believe I believe because if decades of intense study of the scriptures not because I believe in modern day prophets if you think you know the bible better than me please give some demonstration if this superior understanding if the bible. I recommend we start with the identity of the mist high God. Luke Ch.1:32NIV"He will be great and will be called the Son of the MOST HIGH. The LORD God will give him the throne of his father David," John Ch.10:29NIV"My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than ALL c ; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. " The God and Father of Jesus christ is the MOST HIGH God and thus is co equal to no one. John Ch.8:54NIV"Jesus replied, “If I glorify myself, my glory means nothing. My Father, whom you claim as your God, is the one who glorifies me. " According to Jesus his God and Father is the one and only God of Israel . By common consent the God and Father of Jesus is not triune. Therefore the one and only God of Israel is not triune. John ch.20:17NIV"Jesus said, “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’ ”" The God and Father of Jesus is not triune by common consent . The God and Father of Jesus is also the God and Father of Jesus' disciples . Therefore the God and Father of Jesus' disciples is not triune. Matthew Ch.24:36NIV"“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, f but ONLY the Father. " ONLY the God and Father of Jesus Christ is omniscient thus only the God and Father of Jesus Christ is the MOST HIGH God. Roman's Ch.1:9EHV"To be sure, (the)God, whom I serve with my spirit by proclaiming the gospel of his Son, is my witness to how constantly I make mention of you. In all my prayers, " Roman's Ch.3:30NIV"since there is only ONE(Grk.eis) God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith. " Paul was an actual monotheist and thus rendered exclusive sacred service to one most high God. Whom he clearly identifies as the God and Father of Jesus Christ. Matthew Ch.16:16NKJV"Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”" not merely the living Father but the living God to whom all believers owe EXCLUSIVE Devotion/Sacred Service. Malachi Ch.2:10NIV"Do we not all have one Father b ? Did not one God create us? Why do we profane the covenant of our ancestors by being unfaithful to one another?" The God and Father of Jesus Christ is the only true God.

@@aservantofJEHOVAH7849 This is exactly why nobody likes or respect Jehovah Withnessess. This is why JW never debates other Christians like Bob`s Speaker Corner. You would be trainwrecked. You are a textbook example for people who are on the fence to leave JW or to stay. Just like the Scientologist, you are unable to answer yes or no questions. You may not understand it because you are far to deep down the rabbithole. And how am I supposed to debate the Bible with you? The Bible translation you have is an abomination. Nobody but the JW approves of it. I trust the oldest church, the Orthodox church. Jesus is God. kzbin.infoj0vPvUrnPUc - why dont you go debate Cliffe?

God gave people free will its up to each individual to decide their own path weather right or wrong weather they learn or not advice is always welcome but the decision should not be forced or manipulated by fear of expulsion that is not free will its tyranny. The advice Jesus gave was two roads or gates he gave advice the road we choose is up to us and knowledge is powerful should not be one way and owned as one persons or orgs truth.
