Bad experience
August 19, 2022

I enjoy their articles at times and their willingness to try to get people to learn about accurate knowledge of the Bible and truth. All there literature are true and accurate but they are fake as individuals in general. We are all imperfect which I do undestand. They claim to preach about the world how it is corrupted but the people in their religion need alot of correction and change. They are friend to you at a certain frame and reject you after they know all about your personal business and info. Preaching the Bible is a very good thing but some claim to be followers of Jehovah and Jesus and don't practice what they preach and dont do it. Set a good example for yourselves because remember you are a follower of Jesus Christ and Jehovah and rather not judge the world only but please correct your people as well. I understand that this world is bad and under the bad ruler of the world which I don't support at all. They are very judgemental and have a huge ego and think they are important. If they want reject you when they don't want to be bothered and will come back to you when they feel like it. I'm not saying this just to say this but it due to multiple bad experiences and encounters I dealt with in the past. They
Will traumatized you for life and force you to live the life style that they want you to live by. And Traumatize you want to live the life you want to live by and will tell you that you will be destroyed by God and that Jesus is coming soon! Hurry up! This is not right and very unfair. Stop scaring people because it's not right and can cause severe anxiety to one. I have had multiple bad dreams and have very bad anxiety due to them. They do a bible study and they pretending to be sincere but don't care and know what they are saying. The bible teacher need to be honest and trained because they dont what they are saying. Please be accurate and truthful what you guys are saying because it can destroyed and dramatize someone's whole life. Its just not right. We are all imperfect and everyone needs help. But stop forcing the truth with force because that why people are drawing themselves away from the truth. Inorder to serve Jehovah whole heartedly you have to be honest truthful and serve Jehovah the right way please and stop judging because Jesus doesnt like hypocrites. Thankyou in advance.

You have it all wrong
January 27, 2021

JW Are the only people who tell u what is written in the Bible. Every thing they say they can back it up in the Bible. If its not in the Bible they are not talking about it. They are the only true religion. They are telling you what u need to know in order to be in the new system of things. If you don't think what they say is not from the Bible, I dare you to look it up. Yes, I've study with them, I've been to many meetings. I've also gone to other places of worship and these other places are not telling people what they need to know about Jehovah. Pick up your Bible and read it its all there. Yes Satan is here on earth it tells us Jesus threw Satan and his angels out of heaven and hurtled them to the earth. So of course he's here. Did u know that a thousand years to us is one day to Jeh. Thats right! So it didn't take 7 days as we know it but 7000 as we know it. Surely you must know that the Bible is God's word and what it says is the truth. Look around you! The wars, the crime, the killing, the way people talk to you. Rudeness, hate, lovers of themselves and money rather than God. God is for real and his son Jesus as well. All foretold in the Bible many many years ago. God does not lie, he can't to pure and perfect. There some things the JW believe that I don't agree with, one being not able to b friends with non witnesses. Thats family too. I think why my mom wasn't Baptized JW she couldn't do what they ask of her, to disown her own kids. Causet None of us kids. Were JW. I also know that they believe in forgiveness strongly. The Bible even says forgive freely. There are some who are Truly sorry for the sin they have done. You want God to forgive you of your sins, wrong doing, s and all then you must forgive. If you don't God not going to forgive you come judgment day. You be standing up there scare to death as he tells you he can't forgive you c u z you couldn't forgive your fellow man. We are all sinners! JW goal is to do there best and imitate Jesus everyday of their life. They just want to make God happy you do that by living by his rules. War. What is it good for? JW do not go fight in wars because its killing another person don't matter their color Which God does not look at. He don't care your color of your skin its only a cover God looks at your heart, he can read your heart, he knows what is in your heart. They call him the reader of hearts! Thats all he looks at. He know how u really feel about him if there is good in your heart if you love truly love him.So if you thought u were getting over on him by saying one thing and doing another guess what u weren't. Something else to think about. Come on we know that Jesus was not born on Dec 25 in Bethlehem in the month of Dec as we know it to be Dec. He would have froze his b@&%s off. Sorry,, it slipped out.! Who's been telling you for ever that Christmas is fake. Man made holiday. JW JW. Halloween same thing. Easter same thing. I could hgo on and on but thats it for now. DR

Insidious Cult That Destroys Family and Protects Pedophiles
December 28, 2020

Insider info: Jehovah's Witness want you to learn about them from JW.org. However,
If you want to know what REALLY Jehovah's Witnesses are all about, visit JW Broadcasting. It's official video content propaganda run by the cult leaders in their New York headquarters made for their members.
It's accessible from the website near the bottom of the homepage;
This is specifically content for already indoctrinated full fledged members.
The Jehovah's Witnesses are these days more clearly being shown as what hey are;
A high control group and a doomsday cult.
They promote shunning family members not within their religion, are anti-gay, have way too much video content on church rules regarding sex and masturbation to the point where it's uncomfortable, and children are encouraged to watch all of this content with their parents regardless of their age.
This is NOT Christianity and they use their own bible that has been heavily altered to accommodate their doctrines.
This is a cult that protects child sex offenders and silences victims of sexual abuse. Shunning is promoted, most akin to Scientology. Google "JW 1006" to see NPR news reports of this. Look up JWfacts.com to know what really goes on in these churches kingdom halls and the truth about their doctrines. Also take note that none of the church buildings have windows. More members are leaving now than ever before due to Covid-19 pandemic thankfully, since this is a high control group of brainwashed people, many in large numbers are beginning to wake up from this doomsday cult while staying home quarantining.
These people believe anyone who is not a Jehovah's Witness will be destroyed by Jehovah God at Armageddon.
They love bomb visitors and newly interested people to entice them to join the religion. Once you're in, it's hard to get out after they've convinced you to ONLY stay in contact with other Jehovah's Witness members, and shun your family and friends who are not, unless it is to preach to them.
The women in this religion are repressed and depressed, the men are arrogant and often repressed, masked abusers of women and children. Men join for a sense of control and power. Most of these people mean well but wind up in vile situations with one another due to how little these people are allowed to do, due to the minimal amount of personal freedom they are allowed by their church leaders and at the risk of losing membership by being disfellowshipped for being caught breaking the rules by fellow members.
The children of these families are not safe here. This is a doomsday started by freemason Charles Taze Russel and is now being run by 7 older men in New York known as The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses who have yet to report their sex offender database to the authorities at their own expense, and are currently at risk of losing their charitable status with the United Nations due to the huge case brought to light by the Australian Royal Commission; a google search which Jehovah's Witness members are strongly warned NOT to investigate.
If you are not a Jehovah's Witness, know that these people truly believe the world is being run by Satan the devil and if you join the church and decide to leave, they will shun you and attempt to make your life miserable all the while fully believing they are doing the will of God and in the right. Please be cautious with interactions with church members, appearing totally harmless and love bombing is their lure. They don't mean wrong but once indoctrinated this is what they are trained to do. Be careful and protect your family, do your research before getting close with this kind of religion.
It is a cult.

Not even one star. The real true
December 8, 2020

Completely. They got my father in to that scam he is such a volnurable person exactly a year ago he was going to them church for the service when was dark and got hit by a car as they would not even think that he is 82 years old young jehovas Wayne's is are visiting his house regularly to make sure he still goes to as they call ministry to spread the jehova words and I heard when my father at the old age was promising to that young $#*! heads coming to his apartment that he promise he still will bring them new fruits which mean more people to them huissness as it's a charity so they for every donation they top up percentage from the government of tax payers money plus jw.org runs buissnesis under that name but they denied that as well never mind they are involve in paedophilic acts they hide that as well they say it has to be at least two witness to find a pedo has vomited in my opinion the most serious crime ever once I went to them meeting and the was a under age girl saying that she is already preventing her self of having sexual intercourse and masturbation this is basically sick. I have got more examples but I think that the above content should give you enough personal awareness to not open the doors don't talk with them and don't get involve as there must be a reason why Trying to get more power also doesn't that sound like abyerrorist act when they say we all be smashed by Jesus and only 144,000 of them survive be careful people
Who you speaking to and what you say to a strangers they also convinced my father to make them first contact in case of an emergency and first power of attorney instead of his son which is me. I don't understand why the government allowed them to this country as Russia doesn't
You also get lots of data about them on Wikipedia I. E. where they can me from and who did estabilished that scam
It's nothing to do with the jehova as the bible mention so. I don't think we ever going to find out where we are from I mean human being and where do we end after we pronounce dead.

If you have any question you can write to me at *******@gmail.com

And again be careful with them

Jw.org is actually better than any other religious website
October 27, 2020

JW.org I believe is the best website there is to help you learn answers to any of life's questions you may have. Also on this website you will find very comforting bible advice to help you deal with any and all trials you through. There is advice for people of all ages, children, and teens, couples and family, and provides many experiences of people who once weren't Jehovahs witnesses but became them and have found being a Jehovah's Witness the best life they could have. Many have said negative things about Jehovahs witnesses. But even tho I am 16 I have the strong bible based belief that Jehovahs witnesses are the true religion. I have watched all the experiences on Jw.org and watched almost all the talks on it. Without anyones input I have built up a relationship with Jehovah God and feel he is the truest God. People who say the negative things they do, never truly had faith and never truly had a good relationship with God. True, their upbringing may have had something to do with it, or they may have been disfellowshipped, or they may have recieved a bad witness. For one thing, we do have a disfellowshipping or disassociating arrangement where a person who sinned (such as committing immorality or having like sex before marriage) and doesn't repent, or feel sorry for their sins and want to turn around and do good, is dissociated from the congregation until they decide to turn around. As a result, it may seem like they were "shunned" but really they were dissacociated so that the rest of the congregation is protected or not influenced into the wrong path that disfellowshipped one chose. And for another thing, if they recieved a bad witness, such as Jehovahs witnesses who came knocking at their door said they should become Jehovahs witnesses or they will be destroyed (which is very abrupt), that's because that was in the past and now Jehovahs witnesses aren't trying to force people to become a witness, they're encouraging it and welcoming it. If you have doubts, please go through the website as I have and build up your faith. Also, Jehovahs witnesses go door to door because in Matthew 28:19,20 Jesus commanded us too and also Jehovah God wants as many to be saved before he destroys this wicked world. Would you not feel unhappy if a fire was coming and no one told you about it and you didn't manage to escape and died, because no one told you? Well that's what JW's do. Oh one more thing, being a Jehovah's witnesses is more than just being in a religion, it's about having a close relationship with Jehovah God, feeling close to him, knowing you can be his friend as it were like other faithful examples such as Noah, Abraham, and many others. (Read Hebrews 11 for more examples of faith) I warmly invite you to visit Jw.org

Trap for the vulnerable and the invincible
March 13, 2019

Raised 3 children under the teachings of JWs believing their survival at Armageddon was adhering to the doctrines subliminally taught at the multiple weekly meetings that inculcated there was only one way to survive and every person not a dedicated JW will die at Armeggedon?
Why then do the majority of the cults adherents suffer from clinical depression and through the publications of the Watchtowerbibleandtractsociety(a subtle yet THE official name of JWs) address such illness as a result of pressures from the world under the control of the devil teaching that family members are used by the devil to undermine adherents to the faith. Family closeness with those who are not JWs is discouraged unless to sublimely convert believing unless they do all will die the ultimate death at Armeggeddon of eternal damnation if you have a friend or family member that speaks highly of their beliefs look more closely! The teaching is to use contacts to save fully believing they are really saving your soul. I speak from 30 + years of adhering, converting and completely believing. I disassociated myself 10 years ago from the cult and though I was under treatment during the 30 years for chronic depression I have not needed medication ad I haven't suffered from depression since leaving and now am a person involved in areas of our community helping on a practical, realistic level. I will also mention I have lost my son to the cult and have had no contact since I estranged myself due to the teachings that I am from the devil and a threat to his faith.

Not Trustworthy
January 19, 2017

This website is the only Watchtower and thier Governing Body (Jehovah's Witness leadership) sanctioned source of information on them and the Bible. (Everything else on the Internet that contradicts them and their bible interpretation is seen by JWs as apostate twisted lies coming from Satan, they are very much afraid if they read such they will have their minds poisoned against God by Satan) they see themselves as the only true religion as God's earthly organisation and their seven leaders as the only channel by which God is communicating with humans. But they are always changing doctrine as 'New Light' essentially calling God a liar by doing so. They've been predicting the end of the present system of things, which they believe is ruled by Satan, since 1914 changing the prophecy when it doesn't come to pass, making themselves false prophets. When they change doctrine etc they make changes to their website and digital publications without showing a change history. JW adherants believe WT teaching to be from God and blindly will see everything coming from them including this website as directed by and coming from God. It may be trusted by 8 million people whose critical thinking has been crippled by their own choice or that of their parents in raising them. This coupled with a shunning policy that they sugar coat but causes many suicides and their anti blood transfusion policy which is based on one scripture (possibly misapplied as well) which causes countless willful deaths every year makes them a dangerous cult. The BITE mind control model developed by Steven Hassan can be applied quite clearly to this organisation. I was personally raised in the organisation by good and loving parents who were themselves looking for the best way of life, thinking they had found it. I was 39 last year when the Australian Royal Commission into Institutional Response to Child Sexual Abuse (ARC). Opened my eyes to serious breaches in child protection policy and their response spurred me to research outside jw.org only to find I had been brainwashed for 33yrs of my life. I write this review to warn others to be open to researching the organisation before getting involved and if I can help just one person to breakfree from this brainwashing (no you have no idea you've been brainwashed until you wake from it).
