4 Generations of my family have served faithfully as JWs…most of them still do…l was heartbroken when I learned the real truth! memories of my grandparents and my mom serving right until the end made me angry…it felt better when I told myself…these men are just wrong…they are not “lying” to us on purpose…l could have forgiven them if I knew that they were just misled…but what I know now…? I ask…does their pride and greed not fear GOD anymore? Do they not fear his Judgment? My goal is to help my family see the lies…l pray to GOD to help me with this daunting task.
Thank you my brother…for your support and for your videos…they have helped me so much…l use to ask Jehovah…Why did you wake me up? What exactly do you want me to do with this knowledge? Whoever you think I am let me tell you now…l’m not that guy…l was afraid…still am in many ways…but I will do my best to help my family.
I was born-in. Left in 2018 after waking up and taking on a 4 elder panel in a judicial committee. They would not let me bring my phone, jacket, or bible and notes. But they had all the above. These men tried to push me to lose my temper, when I quoted memorized scripture to them they instead got angry and scolded me for trying to teach them. I told them that yes I am a sinner but so are they. That only Christ can judge us all. They just kept asking me if I believe the GB are Gods channel. I gave them my thoughts and that only Christ is our mediator and leader. They swiftly DF’d me and labeled me an apostate. They throw all logic out of the window. So sad
It's sickening isn't it; to see them placate their human masters, and completely ignore their King, Leader, and Head of the congregation just so they can please men! I was judged during an online video conference meeting that I thought at the time; was just an inquiry into whether I had become intently involved with political activism. All of the sudden the "chairman" just blurts out, .."You are no longer one of Jehovah's Witnesses."!! REALLY? YOU'RE TELLING ME WHAT I LOVE, WHO I DON'T LOVE AND FOLLOW; BECAUSE YOUR PERSONAL CONSCIENCE WAS OFFENDED OVER SOMETHING I HAD EVERY LEGAL AND SCRIPTURAL RIGHT TO DO?? I was so shocked that they would even THINK that the minor inclinations I had, made me someone who suddenly rejected God's Kingdom and sovereignty; that I was totally unprepared to refute their slanderous accusation. But in the months that followed, I peered into the elder's manual itself and the Holy scriptures; and have dismantled everything they did and exposed it in an 18 page letter to the U. S branch service department. After 3 reinstatement pleas I have been unscripturally ignored and rejected! And the only reason I want to be reinstated is so I can see and visit with my siblings, dad, children and grandchildren. You want to keep me out of your cult, that's one thing. But to hold my dear family hostage as an eternal punishment; that's quite another! May Jehovah grant you his spirit and goodwill, and may our king Christ Jesus uphold your suffering and comfort you; knowing that thousands of us have been ill treated "for the sake of his name". @serafin1352
Dear friend, I ask Jehovah if l find myself in the situation you've experienced what should I do? I KNOW the scriptures I want to use and the things that I want to say..... and I'm reminded not to give what is Holy to dog's. The antichrist, the false prophet, the man of lawlessness , the apostates ( All of which the WT has proven to be) would amount to me addressing the source by which IT(WT) gets it's power. I have no need to do so. BUT, I am under obligation to show and demonstrate my love and obedience and courage towards Jehovah, and Our Lord and saviour Joshua and speak whatever what is given me by God's holy spirit poured out by Joshua in my defence of Jah and my saviour Joshua. I pray that this will be fulfilled in me. If I can ask pray for me. In closing...... You handled yourself well. Christian love.
I was brought up from infancy in a very hostile and violent atmosphere leading to a condition of PTSD. I went on to join a Gang at the age of 19 where I continued to be exposed too, engaging in and being part of the things that I hated; nevertheless I've always deeply respected Jehovah God's thoughts and his reflections breathed through and in the life of his Son the Christ. I asked myself regarding my life one day; is this what I was born for? To live, to be happy, to suffer pain, to love and to hate. To watch those who I love die and then to die myself knowing that those who love me will also grieve my departure. To be sustained in this world only to see a morbid outcome for us all, generation after generation. One day I bowed my head at the kitchen table bereaved over my lot in life and the inevitable outcome for my son's after me and simply said in prayer to the author of the words that are written in the bible, that I had read from time to time at different phases throughout my life's journey saying; "If you are real, get me out of this damm life that I'm living". The next day I got a knock at the door by the witnesses already vulnerable and primed for anything better than what my life amounted to at the time. They had the bible in their hands and doing what many do in that vulnerable and crushed state looking for hope, I invited them in to share with me from the bible what it was that they could for the moment.The very next day ironically the Morman's knocked at my door also offering the way to redemption, salvation and God's eternal and wonderful purpose for my life. I accepted a bible study from both being resolved in my heart that God would reveal himself to me after putting both to the test. Anticipating that God would answer my prayer I didn't like how one of the Morman leaders who was invited in to sit with me by one of the initial caller's, at one stage pointed to his wealth, his position in the church and even the big SUV truck parked outside my house as evidence that God is with them. I discontinued with the Norman's and went with the Witnesses. Long story short after 10 years of struggling to align myself with Jehovah's way and 4 prison terms later I finally qualified for baptism in 2018. Two years later I was disfellowshiped after first becoming alarmed that the love that I perceived in Jehovah and his Son that saved me from dead work's didn't match some of the mechanical procedures that I began to detect in those with positions of oversight. If I spoke about the various things that I saw it would only lengthen an already lengthy comment so I'll stick to first sharing with a trusted brother some of the red flags that ex elder's expressed on TH-cam that ignited my inner alignment with the scriptures. This brother very quickly advised me to stop viewing already in his mind apostate content of which I was not completely surprised as a result of viewing similar experiences on ex JW channels and from what I already anticipated as a baptised brother. I then decided to question the elder that was conducting the keep yourself in God's love book study with me post baptism. Again without a long story getting longer this elder's pattern of response in this scenario rolled out just as Eric would say it would and did. Can a man that previously lived a debauched and destructive lifestyle loaded down with many sin's with much pain be saved by the true God and his Son being made new in him only to be made to feel like my discernment is miss guided and that the love that I see in my heavenly father that saves me from my former life is to be brought to nothing by those who speak against the spirit within me that keeps me alive to this day. So it is in line with the scripture that brother Eric quotes from Mathew 23:1-15. Again if I went on in other areas time itself would over reach me which is why I am great full towards brother Eric because the spirit that resides within me being in opposition to the former that once held me bound to the way of ungodliness rejoices in the things that he brings into the light.Thank you brother, keep on waging the fine warfare with truth and in overturning strongly entrenched thing's with God's power. May the true and almighty God's spirit through his son continue to be with you.
After some 35 years of indoctrination from childhood, I became so disillusioned with the man-made rules that I found the courage to read Ray Franz’s two books (a member of the GB who’d had the courage to leave it and expose the truth), ‘In Search of Christian Freedom’, and ‘Crisis of Conscience’. I left, although an Elder at the time. Since then, some 30 years ago, I’ve been fortunate to build another life and today am very happy - except that I still regularly dream of attending conventions and being on the house to house ministry. I also carry the burden of indoctrinating my own two boys in childhood which as scarred their whole lives in ways I can never put right. So I welcome this channel, good work, keep it up. What I would say, however, is that it’s one thing getting the courage to leave the curt, it’s another finding a way to heal the psychological damage it has created.
We find that meeting regularly with others going through the same trauma and yet holding to the word of God is very helpful. We study the bible regularly that only focuses on scriptures. Here's the link should you like to attend. beroeans.net/events/
They speak arrogantly, as if they have some kind of divine authority. Asserting themselves as if they were in the position of Christ. As the scripture says that Jesus taught as “one who had authority”.
No matter what we tell you, whether it’s pathetic, outrageous, ridiculous, illogical, makes no sense from a human standpoint, just go ahead and do it! Because we never lie😂 Oh and by the way, we’re neither inspired nor infallible nor very educated.
@@gbnomore3918 Exactly. Those gaslighting lines have to be the most epic to date. Completely incriminating themselves. I’m surprised Jim Jones & Charles Manson were never on the GB. But the GB seems a little more Jeffrey Dahmer-ish in my not so humble opinion. 😂 I bet they serve Koolaide at the next memorial .
Yes!! I agree with you wholeheartedly. These blatantly blasphemous words scream something huge is about to go down and they're setting the stage to have everyone act accordingly. It's actually pretty scary as my mother, children and grandchildren are still trapped inside! I've been grinding my teeth lately and I'm literally sick inside. THIS is why! I wish I knew what they were planning!😳😢
When I first started studying with the Witnesses back in '73, arriving on these shores from Bonnie Scotland, I thought that if only people would listen to these words of truth they would readily embrace it. Fast forward to today and I say that if only the Witnesses would listen to these words of truth, excellently presented if I may say so brother Eric, they would easily grasp it and escape the disgusting lies and deceit of the GB. Sadly most reject it.
@@BeroeanPickets 2 Peter 2 But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them-bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2 Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3 In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
Oh God, I about puked when he said that! "They never lie or deceive us"????? Except for the 50 + times they have done so since their formation 70 years ago!!
What he really means and says is..." We don't need Jesus when WE are going to be Kings in God's Kingdom! Blasfemics..idolatras and narcissists! Looking forward to Jesus removing these "leaders".
Yep, it's amazing how a group of men who have been condemning apostate Christendom for decades, and their religious leaders; cannot see that THEY THEMSELVES HAVE BECOME JUST LIKE THEM! That's why I'm inclining to believe that just meeting in small groups to study Bible topics, is the best way to keep the faith. Corporations tend to turn themselves into "leaders" and judges of those following them. Or they turn into a cult. Matt. 23: 1-12
Astute video Meleti! On point. A false prophet. 30 years ago they said the same thing about never lying as they retracted the sheep and goat doctrine. Even my comment at the meeting of the same led me to walk away that day. I can’t believe lies when Jehovah has given us the Truth in his Word. The question to those still practicing is are you a Truth seeker? Knowing the scriptures will set you free from the doctrine of men where the devil resides.
OMG! The irony of it all! What criteria have they meant? All we’ve ever seen was the criteria for them proving themselves to be a false prophet and to make a profit. This literally makes me 🤢🤮. I was drinking pop when he got to the part about having men at their table we can trust, our future kings, the governing body, and then proceeded to say “ they never lie or deceive us “and I immediately spit or rather sprayed out my drink. 😡🤬. Please God! Do something about this blaspheme, so I can really believe and trust in you.🙏
Taking anything from them now amounts to 'eating from the table of demons' 😈 And that is what the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society has been at least since the days of Joseph Franklin Rutherford with his 'angel wispering'.
"We are simply not going to allow that to happen anymore". (3:00) Referring to accepting statements (lies) without questioning them. I'm on my second viewing of this video. It's quite brilliant. Thanks again.
@pds002 Thank you so much. You're most welcome to join us on zoom at our weekly bible studies with people from all over the world seeking to worship in spirit and truth. beroeans.net/events/
Exceptional, thank you very much for this excellent explanation. I had the same reaction when I watched Gary Breaux's video. What an imposter! What a liar!
One of the more blasphemous talks I’ve heard. Our “future King” The Governing Body? They never lie? Even if I was still an active JW, these statements would cause my eye brows to raise.
They never talk about the mark of the image which is coming ,but remember they said to follow life saving instructions even if it don’t make sense from a human standpoint ,when it comes are they going along like they did with the bio vax
I love that Jehovah is waking his people up❤❤ If you are struggling with wether to leave JW or not, the 1st thing to do is pray and ask Jehovah is JW the truth or not. 2nd thing to do is read the bible or listen to it, to and from work or whenever you can. The bible alone no magazines, the bible will answer itself pray for wisdom,discernment, and understanding. 3rd thing is live by these 3 bible principles: 1) Test every spirit 1 John 4:1, 1 Thess 5:21. 2) Don't go beyond what is written (Or listen to someome who goes beyond what is written.) 1 Cor 4:6. 3) Don't fear false prophets, Deuteronomy 18:22
@@BeroeanPickets Hey Eric, I've attended a few meetings & two partaking of the Emblems. My goal is to make it to the meeting weekly. I truely get inspiration when I see Jehovah waking up his children. Thank you for being part of the light that gets brighter.
I also think of that verse in Revelation about the harlot confidently boasting that she will not know loss of children, and sits securely in shameless luxury, then in one day, in one hour, her destruction will come. Kind of like the gb in their lakeside retreat believing that they are above even the law. Actually, they elevate themselves above God.
Very insightful scrutiny of the context of Paul's words at 1 Thess. 5. As a long-time active JW for over 55 years, and an ardent student and teacher of the Bible as a public speaker and instructor, myself; I have always felt the way you point out here. Men are always in some way or another, claiming to produce "peace and security"; but it is always a delusion; as the corrupting conduct and speech of the world's leaders continues! Hence, the need to "keep watch", "stay awake" as Jesus and Paul exhort. And hence the need for all of Christ's followers to be like a "faithful and wise steward" or "faithful and discreet slave"! Watchtower has completely missed the point of Jesus' parables and his admonition to not be fooled into thinking that the "day of Jehovah" is here! (2 Thess. 2: 2)
Matthew 5:43-48 to love our enemies and to pray for them and to be kind to them. Our relationship to God depends on this command from Jesus. I'm still learning how to do this. But I finally see the sense of it. The Holy spirit is manifested through us. It is our devotion to God that makes this happen. If we cannot follow these commands, we are not trusting God. There comes the day we will need to be able to outwardly display this mercy. Are we ready? All of these videos help to expose the lies. And my job is to forgive those who torture my spiritual family.
I agree Kari. And not just forgiving our enemies, but our brothers and sisters also, when they say things that hurt or upset us. We, in turn, need forgiveness, too. What did Jesus say? To forgive our brothers seven times? No, seventy-seven times. It shows the true love we have for each other and not the “love” we thought we had in the organization. Not to say that all witnesses are unloving. But true worshippers are known by the love they have towards each other. 😊
Since I left jw I’m agnostic atheist, and even I seeing this man saying GB are not LIARS made me annoyed! Please exjw Christians, if possible raise more of your voices to defend your true Jesus. This org is actually using Christian god as a product, imagine their new song is becoming like Christmas too!
The JWs took a lot from us don't let them take away your faith and belief too. Read the Bible yourself, not the JW Bible. Pray for understanding. No organization is needed for understanding. I believe God got us out of this cult by making us realize that it is false.
Romans 3:4 "God forbid, yea, let God be true, but every man a liar, as it is written. I believe the full scriptures meaning is only God's word is true and not mans word.( Unless it's God's word spoken). The prophets in the bible didn't teach people to follow themselves, they taught to follow Jesus. Thank you for that understanding.
When I looked at the "faithful slave" passage in Matthew, as a non-JW it sure looked like a "parable" and not a prophesy". But, a JW elder almost convinced me that it was a future event (prophesy). Later I found a parallel verse that actually calls the "Faithful slave" passage a "parable". Luke 12:40-43.
A note about the "KING OF THE NORTH" and king of the south prophecies - it's really ANNOYING how they keep shifting around which countries each of them are supposed to refer to. They've even said "and then Russia became the king of the north" and things equivalent to it. Like really? Do you not understand the meaning of the word "prophecy?" You're predicting things before they happen! You don't get to change what you claim they meant as time goes on!!! SMH
They talk of peace and security all the time. When first out I was like a meerkat everytime the declaration of peace and security, eventually you realise just how often they say this.
Psalm 146:3 says, "Put not your trust in princes, nor in a son of man in whom there is no help". This verse can be translated as "Do not trust influential people, mortals who cannot help you".
Doesn’t the organization of today identify the king of the north and the king of the south as different identifications from what was being taught in the late 1800’s? If so, wouldn’t that be an example of a “zero”?
Thank you for your clear and objective discussion about this laughable talk entitled “Protect yourself from misinformation.” If JW’s did that they would leave en mass
Excellent work, so far the only 2 activists that I found on TH-cam that really prepare themselves to unmask this people in this way is you and the one called professor Mr. Ramiro from the TH-cam channel Jaque mate a la watchtower in the Spanish language, he is from Mexico, thanks so much 👏
I didn't know about Ramiro, but we also have a Spanish channel, youtube.com/@losbereanos/ Also, we have meetings in multiple languages where we read from the bible and comment. beroeans.net/events/
What is even sadder and more disgusting is the way PIMIs justify such blasphemous statements. Even at my PIMI-est, I would not have tolerated this disgusting vomit coming from Gary's mouth! 🤢
Jeremiah 17:5,7 "This is what Jehovah says: “Cursed is the man who puts his trust in mere humans,Who relies on human power, And whose heart turns away from Jehovah. Blessed is the man who puts his trust in Jehovah,Whose confidence is in Jehovah. - NWT
And you had Geoffrey Jackson telling the Australian royal commission that it would be presumptuous to claim the governing body are God's sole spokesperson on earth today even though they actually teach the GB is God's modern day sole representative . But the Governing Body never lie!🤔
Future kings really. So the GB has already attained salvation? What about undeserved kindness? I for one will leave it up to God and Jesus to determine my salvation.
Thanks for this. King of the North, of the south? Britain and Germany? Please, what a pile of horseapples. What's next, it reps the chairs of Coke and Pepsi? Thanks again for your insights. Be well and stay safe.
As an electrical engineer, an "A" student in math in high school and college; I don't like his analogy of "0 times another number is always 0". Depends on how you frame the equation: 0 multiplied by any other number is always "0", I agree. But any number; multiplied "0" times; is STILL THAT NUMBER! 😂😅
2 pierre 3:16... " At first century Christians believed in a near end of the system of things, " as he does (Paul) in all his letters when he speaks in them of these matters. There are some things in them that are hard to understand,"
Wow!! This reminds me of the serpent in the garden of Eden, the GB being the serpent and the witnesses being Eve, thank you brother Eric!! 💯💪❤🙏 Jesus the way the truth and the life!!
IS YOUR BIRTH CERTIFICATE A BOND ? In the McGaw Hill Insurance Series Book on Corporate Suretyship on page 152 on Corporate Suretyship (This is an insurance training book in a series) it states " When a new born bond has thus been christened with a number, it's birth certificate is prepared, it's genealogical record entered and the child adequately described for the archives of the company". They called it a new born bond, they brought you back from freedom with Christ into bondage because they are promoting in a direction of going that way because they are promoting legal. You cannot run a system of legal without legal bondage participants. We need to know who we are. We are being manipulated through legalism and of course they need us to believe in it to pull it off. So they need lawyers everywhere that everyone complains about but everyone goes to. They say legal is the law through fork tongues. But law is something that is laid down and established not something that can be changed at the whim of a pen.
How interesting that in the 1984 edition of their NWT Reference Bible, cross reference scriptures for Psalm 116:11 are Psalm 31:22, Psalm 146:3 and Romans 3:4. However, in their 2013 edition of the NWT, the only cross reference scripture for Psalm 116:11 is Romans 3:4. Looks like they realized those of us with thinking faculties would realize they were referring to themselves.
15:48 Oooo......I wouldn’t say that Satan is completely valueless Gary. After all, he is deceiving both the GB, and 8 million JW’s. That’s pretty valuable to the Devil Gary, although you see nothing of the kind.

We find that meeting regularly with others going through the same trauma and yet holding to the word of God is very helpful. We study the bible regularly that only focuses on scriptures. Here's the link should you like to attend. beroeans.net/events/
Their ego has no bounds... It amazes me to hear them speak with such certainty about themselves.
They speak arrogantly, as if they have some kind of divine authority. Asserting themselves as if they were in the position of Christ. As the scripture says that Jesus taught as “one who had authority”.
19:24 wowwwww!
This talk alone PROVES that they are getting ready to do something or somethings BIG! They’re setting everyone up.
It’s disgusting!!
No matter what we tell you, whether it’s pathetic, outrageous, ridiculous, illogical, makes no sense from a human standpoint, just go ahead and do it! Because we never lie😂 Oh and by the way, we’re neither inspired nor infallible nor very educated.
@@gbnomore3918 Exactly.
Those gaslighting lines have to be the most epic to date. Completely incriminating themselves. I’m surprised Jim Jones & Charles Manson were never on the GB. But the GB seems a little more Jeffrey Dahmer-ish in my not so humble opinion. 😂
I bet they serve Koolaide at the next memorial .
If so, it will be grape flavor.
Yes!! I agree with you wholeheartedly. These blatantly blasphemous words scream something huge is about to go down and they're setting the stage to have everyone act accordingly. It's actually pretty scary as my mother, children and grandchildren are still trapped inside! I've been grinding my teeth lately and I'm literally sick inside. THIS is why! I wish I knew what they were planning!😳😢
@@soskeepingitreal9401 you can get it has to do with 💸💵💰
When I first started studying with the Witnesses back in '73, arriving on these shores from Bonnie Scotland, I thought that if only people would listen to these words of truth they would readily embrace it. Fast forward to today and I say that if only the Witnesses would listen to these words of truth, excellently presented if I may say so brother Eric, they would easily grasp it and escape the disgusting lies and deceit of the GB. Sadly most reject it.
@ascotinva, they've been so well programmed not to listen, to reject the truth. So sad.
@@BeroeanPickets 2 Peter 2 But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them-bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2 Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3 In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
"Gary Breaux, who is definitely not my bro... "
😂😂😂😂
Totally caught me off guard with that one.
😁
“They never lie or deceive us” is the biggest lie of all!!!
Oh God, I about puked when he said that! "They never lie or deceive us"????? Except for the 50 + times they have done so since their formation 70 years ago!!
I haven't heard anything out their mouths that is true.
They are making it SO easy for any honest JW to wake up.
Gary said "they never lie" 😳 That's a lie.
What about Geoffrey Jackson at the Australian Royal Commission? Lied in front of a judge. ☹️
And their lying is contemptuous as well as contemptible. I have no respect for such liars.
@@georgebrown8312 Nobody should! 😕
Eric, your video should be played in every Kingdom Hall
Fat chance of that happening. 🤣🤣
It is so shocking to me because it seems so clear to me now.
Its just so amazing to me that I was so brainwashed..
Happened to all of us to some degree.
Their a lying disgrace, the lies are so blatant it's breathtaking.
TRUST the GB 😲?
👑📖👉"Do not put your trust in princes, nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help" - Psalm 146: 3 (NKJV). 🤨👉That right there.
❣️
Thank you, Eric . Im so glad i found your video's. It helped me very much. Thank you Jeohova through your son Jesus for giving me the real truth ❤
Excellent work, thank you very much.
He was really kissing the GB butt in that talk! 😂
He wants his position as king 😂
His wife is pulling for a house in a WT retirement village.
Good presentation of the true facts 👏
What he really means and says is..." We don't need Jesus when WE are going to be Kings in God's Kingdom! Blasfemics..idolatras and narcissists! Looking forward to Jesus removing these "leaders".
Yep, it's amazing how a group of men who have been condemning apostate Christendom for decades, and their religious leaders; cannot see that THEY THEMSELVES HAVE BECOME JUST LIKE THEM! That's why I'm inclining to believe that just meeting in small groups to study Bible topics, is the best way to keep the faith. Corporations tend to turn themselves into "leaders" and judges of those following them. Or they turn into a cult. Matt. 23: 1-12
Me thinketh Gary , Speaketh 🗣️
With 🤘🏾Fork tongue !! 😈
Astute video Meleti! On point. A false prophet. 30 years ago they said the same thing about never lying as they retracted the sheep and goat doctrine. Even my comment at the meeting of the same led me to walk away that day. I can’t believe lies when Jehovah has given us the Truth in his Word. The question to those still practicing is are you a Truth seeker? Knowing the scriptures will set you free from the doctrine of men where the devil resides.
OMG! The irony of it all! What criteria have they meant? All we’ve ever seen was the criteria for them proving themselves to be a false prophet and to make a profit. This literally makes me 🤢🤮. I was drinking pop when he got to the part about having men at their table we can trust, our future kings, the governing body, and then proceeded to say “ they never lie or deceive us “and I immediately spit or rather sprayed out my drink. 😡🤬. Please God! Do something about this blaspheme, so I can really believe and trust in you.🙏
Joey, that was priceless!
Yes Father
Thank you Eric for your honesty and hard work your doing to help people wake up
Taking anything from them now amounts to 'eating from the table of demons' 😈 And that is what the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society has been at least since the days of Joseph Franklin Rutherford with his 'angel wispering'.
Yes definitely are Evil and people should stay away from them the WT is an Evil Cult
"We are simply not going to allow that to happen anymore". (3:00) Referring to accepting statements (lies) without questioning them. I'm on my second viewing of this video. It's quite brilliant. Thanks again.
@pds002 Thank you so much. You're most welcome to join us on zoom at our weekly bible studies with people from all over the world seeking to worship in spirit and truth. beroeans.net/events/
I am disgusted and repulsed .
Their actions prove what they are.
George Costanza said it beautifully..."its not a lie.....if you believe it..."
Exceptional, thank you very much for this excellent explanation. I had the same reaction when I watched Gary Breaux's video.
What an imposter! What a liar!
I cannot believe what I just heard!
That was my first reaction as well.
Thank you so much to tell the truth....Thank you
People who dont lie dont need to tell people they dont lie. Con men do.
💯 % on point
Señor eric lo admiro.por su valentía.que Dios bendiga a usted y a toda su familia.
Muchas gracias!
You cant unlearn what u finally learn about the governoring body..
20:27 Such great scriptural references Eric. Thank you. 🙏
One of the more blasphemous talks I’ve heard. Our “future King” The Governing Body? They never lie? Even if I was still an active JW, these statements would cause my eye brows to raise.
Grazie grazie grazie dall'Italia ❤
Thank you, Eric. Great video.
@Dottiesmith1958 - Thank you so much Dottie!
They never talk about the mark of the image which is coming ,but remember they said to follow life saving instructions even if it don’t make sense from a human standpoint ,when it comes are they going along like they did with the bio vax
13:36 There’s no light in WT, but there is plenty of gaslighting going on FROM WT.
1 Cor 10:12 12So the one who thinks he is standing firm should be careful not to fall. This goes also for institutions,Organisations.
And here is the sad thing " try exposing then : you are an apostate "
Once again they describe themselves perfectly. Brother Bro has finally learnt his zero times table
The table of our future kings the govening body !!!@#@ WOW shouldn't be surprised but had to go back and check he actually said that..wow.
Thank you, good info, excellent delivery. 😊
Great critique.
Great Job Eric Thanks
See at 23:38 this little inflection of his right (left for us) eyebrow when he said "They never lie" or deceive us" ... betrayed by your face Gary....
Brilliant video Eric. Thank you.
My pleasure!
Thx. For the lil pre algebra lesson, Gary. You're telling on YOURSELF and your org..
🤣
I love that Jehovah is waking his people up❤❤ If you are struggling with wether to leave JW or not, the 1st thing to do is pray and ask Jehovah is JW the truth or not. 2nd thing to do is read the bible or listen to it, to and from work or whenever you can. The bible alone no magazines, the bible will answer itself pray for wisdom,discernment, and understanding. 3rd thing is live by these 3 bible principles:
1) Test every spirit 1 John 4:1, 1 Thess 5:21.
2) Don't go beyond what is written (Or listen to someome who goes beyond what is written.) 1 Cor 4:6.
3) Don't fear false prophets, Deuteronomy 18:22
Hi Allan, You're welcome to check out our weekly online meetings: beroeans.net/events/
@@BeroeanPickets Hey Eric, I've attended a few meetings & two partaking of the Emblems. My goal is to make it to the meeting weekly. I truely get inspiration when I see Jehovah waking up his children. Thank you for being part of the light that gets brighter.
Thank you ❤🙏🏻
We all have to pray that their eyes will be opened.
We should believe him because he talks slow, calm, and in fancy expensive suit which only decent, honest and wise human being can afford it.
A great video Eric!! revealing their lies.
I also think of that verse in Revelation about the harlot confidently boasting that she will not know loss of children, and sits securely in shameless luxury, then in one day, in one hour, her destruction will come. Kind of like the gb in their lakeside retreat believing that they are above even the law. Actually, they elevate themselves above God.
That smacks of a Jim Jones mentality. Run for your lives people.
Very insightful scrutiny of the context of Paul's words at 1 Thess. 5. As a long-time active JW for over 55 years, and an ardent student and teacher of the Bible as a public speaker and instructor, myself; I have always felt the way you point out here. Men are always in some way or another, claiming to produce "peace and security"; but it is always a delusion; as the corrupting conduct and speech of the world's leaders continues! Hence, the need to "keep watch", "stay awake" as Jesus and Paul exhort. And hence the need for all of Christ's followers to be like a "faithful and wise steward" or "faithful and discreet slave"! Watchtower has completely missed the point of Jesus' parables and his admonition to not be fooled into thinking that the "day of Jehovah" is here! (2 Thess. 2: 2)
Matthew 5:43-48 to love our enemies and to pray for them and to be kind to them. Our relationship to God depends on this command from Jesus. I'm still learning how to do this. But I finally see the sense of it. The Holy spirit is manifested through us. It is our devotion to God that makes this happen. If we cannot follow these commands, we are not trusting God.
There comes the day we will need to be able to outwardly display this mercy. Are we ready? All of these videos help to expose the lies. And my job is to forgive those who torture my spiritual family.
Well put, Kari.
I agree Kari. And not just forgiving our enemies, but our brothers and sisters also, when they say things that hurt or upset us. We, in turn, need forgiveness, too. What did Jesus say? To forgive our brothers seven times? No, seventy-seven times. It shows the true love we have for each other and not the “love” we thought we had in the organization. Not to say that all witnesses are unloving. But true worshippers are known by the love they have towards each other. 😊
Since I left jw I’m agnostic atheist, and even I seeing this man saying GB are not LIARS made me annoyed! Please exjw Christians, if possible raise more of your voices to defend your true Jesus. This org is actually using Christian god as a product, imagine their new song is becoming like Christmas too!
The JWs took a lot from us don't let them take away your faith and belief too. Read the Bible yourself, not the JW Bible. Pray for understanding. No organization is needed for understanding. I believe God got us out of this cult by making us realize that it is false.
Romans 3:4
"God forbid, yea, let God be true, but every man a liar, as it is written.
I believe the full scriptures meaning is only God's word is true and not mans word.( Unless it's God's word spoken).
The prophets in the bible didn't teach people to follow themselves, they taught to follow Jesus.
Thank you for that understanding.
Wow! Seems like they are Really Doubling Down. Almost unbelievable. But from what I have gone through….. any goes now!
Tournons vers Christ
Thanks great video
Glad you enjoyed it
When I looked at the "faithful slave" passage in Matthew, as a non-JW it sure looked like a "parable" and not a prophesy". But, a JW elder almost convinced me that it was a future event (prophesy). Later I found a parallel verse that actually calls the "Faithful slave" passage a "parable". Luke 12:40-43.
Which parallel verse was called a parable? Are you able to elaborate? Is it Luke 12: 40-43? and what states that this is a parable?
A note about the "KING OF THE NORTH" and king of the south prophecies - it's really ANNOYING how they keep shifting around which countries each of them are supposed to refer to. They've even said "and then Russia became the king of the north" and things equivalent to it. Like really? Do you not understand the meaning of the word "prophecy?" You're predicting things before they happen! You don't get to change what you claim they meant as time goes on!!! SMH
another fantastic video Eric. thank you for your research and diligent bible study . i hope you are well brother
Hi Simon, I'm doing quite well thank you. Thanks for watching. Perhaps you'd care to join our online bible studies. beroeans.net/events/
@@BeroeanPicketsim glad you are well thank you I would love that
How come the king of the north and south have changed for today’s teachings? Don’t they teach it’s Anglo American and Russia now??
They keep changing that, the same they do with the definition of the faithfull slave.
New understanding, when the brothers decide to change the rules...
They talk of peace and security all the time. When first out I was like a meerkat everytime the declaration of peace and security, eventually you realise just how often they say this.
disgusted and repulsed
Psalm 146:3 says, "Put not your trust in princes, nor in a son of man in whom there is no help".
This verse can be translated as "Do not trust influential people, mortals who cannot help you".
They are speaking for and against their ownselves😢😮
Doesn’t the organization of today identify the king of the north and the king of the south as different identifications from what was being taught in the late 1800’s? If so, wouldn’t that be an example of a “zero”?
Great point!!!
Tipping point…. Pray for them guys….
The Bible says don't put your trust in man. Yet he says we can have absolute trust in the GB. How do JW's not see this????
Thank you for your clear and objective discussion about this laughable talk entitled “Protect yourself from misinformation.” If JW’s did that they would leave en mass
Excellent work, so far the only 2 activists that I found on TH-cam that really prepare themselves to unmask this people in this way is you and the one called professor Mr. Ramiro from the TH-cam channel Jaque mate a la watchtower in the Spanish language, he is from Mexico, thanks so much 👏
I didn't know about Ramiro, but we also have a Spanish channel, youtube.com/@losbereanos/ Also, we have meetings in multiple languages where we read from the bible and comment. beroeans.net/events/
Trust is earned not dictated. This organization is getting more cultier than ever
The next time I hear someone lie, perhaps I should say:
"You lie like a rug"
Or, better yet,
"You lie like a Jehovah Witness"
If those liars say Good Morning and Good Day I will rush to get an umbrella. They are top notch liars in all and every word they told.
What is even sadder and more disgusting is the way PIMIs justify such blasphemous statements.
Even at my PIMI-est, I would not have tolerated this disgusting vomit coming from Gary's mouth! 🤢
👏👏
Gerrit losch: You completely trust
In jehovah

And the faithful slave
Watchtower’s Trinity
Well said !! Watchtower's Trinity !!

Amen 🙌🏾
"Millions now living will never die"
Did that require an "adjustment", or was is simply a lie?
It was a lie, for sure. It is as though the Watchtower Society's Governing Body doesn't think that decaying bodies stink.
And you had Geoffrey Jackson telling the Australian royal commission that it would be presumptuous to claim the governing body are God's sole spokesperson on earth today even though they actually teach the GB is God's modern day sole representative . But the Governing Body never lie!🤔
Just for clarity, that was Geoffrey Jackson not Mark Sanderson but yes, your point remains true.
@@lieblingmike Good point, whoops 😬🤭🤭
@@lieblingmike thanks,now corrected ✔️
What a whopper Gary told here! Such brazenness and presumptuousness! 😮
You hit the nail right on the head for sure.
Future kings really. So the GB has already attained salvation? What about undeserved kindness? I for one will leave it up to God and Jesus to determine my salvation.
They really are getting desperate to protect themselves
Thanks for this. King of the North, of the south? Britain and Germany? Please, what a pile of horseapples. What's next, it reps the chairs of Coke and Pepsi? Thanks again for your insights. Be well and stay safe.
🤣🤣🤣
As an electrical engineer, an "A" student in math in high school and college; I don't like his analogy of "0 times another number is always 0". Depends on how you frame the equation: 0 multiplied by any other number is always "0", I agree. But any number; multiplied "0" times; is STILL THAT NUMBER! 😂😅
2 pierre 3:16... " At first century Christians believed in a near end of the system of things,
" as he does (Paul) in all his letters when he speaks in them of these matters. There are some things in them that are hard to understand,"
Wow!! This reminds me of the serpent in the garden of Eden, the GB being the serpent and the witnesses being Eve, thank you brother Eric!! 💯💪❤🙏 Jesus the way the truth and the life!!
IS YOUR BIRTH CERTIFICATE A BOND ?
In the McGaw Hill Insurance Series Book on Corporate Suretyship on page 152 on Corporate Suretyship (This is an insurance training book in a series) it states " When a new born bond has thus been christened with a number, it's birth certificate is prepared, it's genealogical record entered and the child adequately described for the archives of the company". They called it a new born bond, they brought you back from freedom with Christ into bondage because they are promoting in a direction of going that way because they are promoting legal. You cannot run a system of legal without legal bondage participants. We need to know who we are. We are being manipulated through legalism and of course they need us to believe in it to pull it off. So they need lawyers everywhere that everyone complains about but everyone goes to. They say legal is the law through fork tongues. But law is something that is laid down and established not something that can be changed at the whim of a pen.
Eric do you have any videos on your view on how to be saved? Faith vs faith / works? Currently studying on this and would appreciate your take.
I'm working on one right now. Look for it in the coming weeks.
How interesting that in the 1984 edition of their NWT Reference Bible, cross reference scriptures for Psalm 116:11 are Psalm 31:22, Psalm 146:3 and Romans 3:4. However, in their 2013 edition of the NWT, the only cross reference scripture for Psalm 116:11 is Romans 3:4. Looks like they realized those of us with thinking faculties would realize they were referring to themselves.
1 Peter 4:7-11. King James Version · But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.
Can you see the puppet strings behind his back? I can!
Yes. He thinks that serving the GB is serving God.
Where is he getting that information? Nothing is substantiated, he is acting as if a spirit medium predicting the future, GOOD GRIEF
15:48 Oooo......I wouldn’t say that Satan is completely valueless Gary. After all, he is deceiving both the GB, and 8 million JW’s. That’s pretty valuable to the Devil Gary, although you see nothing of the kind.

About 8 years ago, I asked a pioneer sister to explain it to me. I said, "I'll have to think about it". She never came back. Ironically, at that time, I thought that there was something wrong with ME that I couldn't understand it.
