It is your mind, control it! So many people feel the need to belong, regardless of what they truly feel, just to say I belong to something. A false identity. The best to You.
Very mature and honest, glad that you got out of the JW Cult. Just because a group of men said so, it doesn't mean it is so. What will be will be. The creator of this universe and us, has it under control. Enjoy the life you were given. Open doors, explore. I was there once, so I understand.
Congrats on a strong mind and your freedom. Some of us are Theist and some are not. It is okay not to have all the answers. In time you may decide on a belief or lean towards one and it will be all of your own choosing. Enjoy the research. It is a beautiful ride.

Deprogramming takes time. I had the blood card in my wallet for years after I escaped. Only relatively recently I've thrown it to the trash after clearing out my wallet. The mental baggage works in a similar way. Once the indoctrination is gone, there is fresh space, and we should very careful with what we fill that space. Personally, I became an agnostic atheist. I try to live a good, moral life, and to do what I can for my fellow humans. I'm not ashamed to say that culturally, I'm Christian. But I treat it like when people ask my Zodiac sign. I don't really think it has much influence over me in a practical manner. Science works a lot better than faith, since it's self correcting and allows for questioning and doubt, re-examination. I am still spiritual, but more in an existential, poetic way. I am grateful to exist and be aware of the universe. I don't need gods or devils to blame anymore.
_" Science works a lot better than faith, since it's self correcting and allows for questioning and doubt, re-examination."_ I hope you don't mind my "religion" in saying this, but "true" Christianity follows the same protocol of evidence and re-examination. If you study scripture yourself you can find the truth for yourself, but it will be hard not to hear the voices of the leadership and indoctrination you were fed. Be strong and continue to be critical in your approach, as that is how you build a proper foundation, with well-examined and tested "truths" and slowly building trust in them.
@@dms8044 🙄 The bias is strong with this one... and obvious. All I'm saying is that if you want to know what Christianity is really about, read the text for yourself without outside influence.

Life is an exploration. Getting hung-up on some specific landscape, brings us a limited and limiting view of the rich diversity of our world. After a feeling of personal satisfaction from our exploration, it is ok if we settle down to pursue an in-depth examination of some particular landscape of our own desire. That endeavor may be self-directed/informal or institutional/formal. Contrary to JW theology, we can affirm 'to each his own'.
I'm praying for you to have a personal encounter with the Lord Jesus, and every confusion will be laid to rest. The key is a heart that is genuinely seeking Him. He's waiting for you. ❤
There is certainly a lot to learn about life. Although I came to see through the teachings of the governing body and realise for example that Revelation was about the destruction of the old covenant temple, it still leaves many blanks to fill in.
i extricated myself from a dysfunctional narcissist-centered family system and i'd say it bore similar criteria to that of a cult. i have a similar outlook to you, but for me i don't think it's liberation, as much as i think it's more a quiet deference to my programming, that i've escaped direct control, but to keep my brain from going completely haywire, i keep the conditioning as a possibility, since it was so ingrained into my psyche
Thank you for sharing. I can relate with being raised in a dysfunctional family that practically operated as a mini cult. There's this idea called "the cult of two," which describes how any relational dynamic is capable of operating as a cult, and it can be so insidious because it's hard to cognitively process what is happening when you are willingly giving up your agency in exchange for acceptance in the "tribe." It is hard to witness now how willing people are to let others tell them what to believe that these people never question any of their beliefs. But I also envy them at times, as I feel life would be a lot easier if I wasn't so aware lol. I understand from this angle why one might keep their conditioning as a possibility, like a mask they can use to assimilate.
There is, John 14:6 is all you need to know to start. God is love n truth. I’ve been through a lot n know without a doubt that my faith is real n as promised will take me to eternity where the King of Glory is . Cults always poison the waters of truth. You do have a conscience and a heart it’s one day at a time coming out of such a constricted, controlling environment. Good book to read is “Kingdom of the cults” by Dr. Walter Martin its also on audio/ TH-cam. Love n prayers for you. 💜💜💜🔥🙏
Real truth is self evident, and doesn't need to be believed. We're supposed to learn about our environment through observation and testing theories to find proof. Many ideas are plausible but not true. We're like adventurers out to discover if the world has an edge and will our ship go over and fall to somewhere.
You do not need an organization... Jesus is the only way to God. I still believe there is God and his son Jesus. I still pray. I read the Bible. I DO NOT attend the KH anymore.
I’m from Malaysia i was raised from the Jw family also,but I never get baptised at 18 i stop following my parents going to the Kingdom Hall and the reason i leave just because I can’t fight myself that I’m a sinner. But until now i still believe that what they believe is really the truth .And the people is really lovely people actually u know that right?
You are deceived if you place your faith in the Watchtower Society. Jesus Christ is the Way, Truth and Life and your only hope not the Watchtower Society.
This is honestly 100% how i feel. I don't know if there's a god or not, no one really does, and that's okay. Maybe this is kind of off base, but i kinda feel like the real reason why people want to believe there is a god so strongly is because it give them some sort of purpose or hope for the future. Which there's nothing wrong with that, and i totally understand how that could be comforting.
@bishsama3252, The sinful nature of man is that he is naturally anti-God and always inclined to commit sins. When man maintains a living relationship with The Lord God, The Lord Jesus Christ and God's Holy Spirit, then man is fully transformed By The Holy Spirit in a temple of God. Man is called by The Lord Jesus Christ to become Born again, because without the Spirit of God a man cannot discover and enter the Kingdom of God. Billions of human souls will become acquainted with the righteous judgment of The Judge and Lord Jesus Christ. Hell is the reward for all those billions of human souls who have deliberately rejected The Lord Jesus Christ. A just and eternal punishment for sinful disobedient people.
I am happy for you that you have survived your exodus without trauma and becoming an atheist like Lloyd Evans did. People are under such stress at the kingdom hall that they don't realize it until that pressure and control are removed and they leave to discover it. They rebound and rebel due to that . They lose their faith because the source of their faith is false, the governing body are like the pharisees of Jesus' day, but remember the cute nick name Jesus had for the elders of the one true religion? He called them "Sons Of Satan, offspring of vipers and snakes." So it should not surprise christians today to learn that their heirarchy are hypocrites only after money and power and dominance . Even the Jehovah's Witnesses are plagued by the same situation because Satan offers them Money, Power and what ever else they want to be corrupt and they take it and then tell lies. That does not mean that Jesus will reject people from those religions when they genuinely believe He is the SON OF GOD and sent here to judge us during the 42 months of the great tribulation and Armageddon. Read the bible without anybodie's filter on it and new things you will discover. I am happy to know you and will look for your other posts. God bless.
May the Truth reveal himself to you. And you receive his peace and Salvation. It is written; in the beginning was the word. And the word was with God. And the word is God…. The Word of Jesus Christ is absolutely true!!! Unfortunately wolves in sheep’s clothing are a sure sign of the fulfilment of his word.
Don't pick a side. Pick JESUS. The historical Jesus. He IS the truth (John 14:6). He won't mislead you. Ask Him to reveal Himself to you (John 14:14). He won't mislead you. You can have an open door (mind). Just make certain you have the screen door closed. Use inductive reasoning (asking questions) to help you navigate things. God bless.
Gnosticism/agnosticism is a question of knowledge. Theism/atheism is a question of belief. Even the the most devout make believer only thinks they have knowledge of something, but it's a fallacy. We're all agnostic whether we can recognize it or not. But if you don't actively believe in a specific god or gods, you're an atheist. And theist or atheist; knowledge of unprovable, unsupported claims is unattainable. You're either convinced of something or not. They can't all be right, but they can all be wrong. Don't be so open minded that you're brain falls out. Question everything, or the next cult will scoop you right up. All religions are cults.
God is love. You don’t need religion or doctrine to find God. God has nothing to do with either. If you seek God with all of you and really want to a know God. You will find God. God is waiting to have a relationship with you. God loves you. God is patient. God has you no matter what. ❤
Here’s what I think, and maybe you’d agree with this, Men have a motive, usually, and let’s start there. Before we choose a side let’s investigate the motive aspect of things. If I can use God, to ensure I no longer have to work, that’s a motive, a big one. The side we really want to be on in a spiritual sense is one that we connect with in a mystical sense, so for instance if the teachings says your loved one can float around as a spirit, you know in your bones, they would visit you, if this isn’t obvious, maybe they’re just gone. Dead. All I can say is the book says God is mystical, all these stories present him as such, if we don’t find anything there, in a mystical sense, we’ll maybe it doesn’t exist and the good book is a pile of BS. Let’s not ignore the obvious. Here something to hang on to… We weren’t here in the 1500’s, 1600’s, 1700’s or 1800’s but we didn’t complain about it, we didn’t know we supposed to care. If we return to that state of existence, isn’t it cool to know, for a brief time we were here, lived, breathed, and loved. That’s my view, anyway.
Dear sister come to Jesus, not a cult. Kneel down in your room,pray and ask Jesus to direct you.I assure,you Jesus will speak to you. He is the way, the truth and the life.
I left Watchtower and I will never return. I stopped watching your video when you used the "F" and I will never return to your channel. This is what happened to you because you now have so much freedom to live your life. You must be proud of yourself.
good morning beautiful i was Jehova witness i been changing lots rilegion but i born catholic now i filing confius i am nervous avri day not ting work on me i been have bad luck oll me life i been right the Bible many years not ting the work on me me wife passed way 12 years ago now i live alone i was Looking someone for relationship or friendship not ting work on me i am nervous now avri day i want go Italy but i don’t want go alone i was Looking someone i pay ticket go and come back not ting the work on me chive me some confort i hope you andesten avriting i speak English and Italian and thank you some confort and have blessed day ❤
My dear Sister, just pick up a king James bible and slowly read it. Jesus is the light, the real Jesus wants a relationship with you and that's what real authentic Christianity is, that's what the book of Acts is all about.. JESUS IS REAL N HE IS GOD AND HE LOVES YOU VERY MUCH, THAT'S WHY HE DIED ON THE CROSS FOR YOU!..
There is a God! After I left my family for the truth (they left me is more accurate) four years later, I received my 100-fold - just like Jesus promised. Matthew 19:29 GNT And everyone who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, on account of my name, shall receive a hundred-fold, and inherit eternal life. Also, I was set free from this wicked system! Jehovah frees his people from the hand of the wicked one. Jeremiah 15:20,21 NWT For I am with you, to save you and to deliver you,” is the utterance of Jehovah. 21 “And I will deliver you out of the hand of the bad ones, Never give up on the truth!
You left a cult yeah right you want to do what you want,and don't want to conform to bible standards. I was the same disfellowshipped as a teen for engaging in fornication which the bible condemns i loved women 😂😂😂
The JWs are indeed a destructive cult. You can do whatever you want within the cult or outside the cult. Plenty of people in that cult are having affairs and committing crimes. Plenty of people outside of it are doing the same.
Thinking for yourself is the only way. Thats the path.
Agreed!
He (or she) that trusts in his or her own heart is a fool. Proverbs 28:26
Trust in Jehovah with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding
Proverbs 3:5,6

Let’s not ignore the obvious. Here something to hang on to… We weren’t here in the 1500’s, 1600’s, 1700’s or 1800’s but we didn’t complain about it, we didn’t know we supposed to care. If we return to that state of existence, isn’t it cool to know, for a brief time we were here, lived, breathed, and loved. That’s my view, anyway.
Oh they're definitely a cult Violet.
Dear sister come to Jesus, not a cult. Kneel down in your room,pray and ask Jesus to direct you.I assure,you Jesus will speak to you. He is the way, the truth and the life.
I left Watchtower and I will never return. I stopped watching your video when you used the "F" and I will never return to your channel. This is what happened to you because you now have so much freedom to live your life. You must be proud of yourself.
@@dpsuperduper I truly am proud of myself for creating a life full of freedom. Including freedom from taking anything too personally😌
I’m sure she is plenty proud of herself. Healthy minded people don’t fixate about the criticism of uncaring strangers. They are their own judge.

My dear Sister, just pick up a king James bible and slowly read it.
Jesus is the light, the real Jesus wants a relationship with you and that's what real authentic Christianity is, that's what the book of Acts is all about..
JESUS IS REAL N HE IS GOD AND HE LOVES YOU VERY MUCH, THAT'S WHY HE DIED ON THE CROSS FOR YOU!..
Be sure to use a "FAIR USE" statement
I'd appreciate more info please.. would I need to use a "fair use" statement due to talking about the Jehovah's Witnesses organization? Thanks!
Jehovah== watch tower!!
There is a God!
After I left my family for the truth (they left me is more accurate) four years later, I received my 100-fold - just like Jesus promised.
Matthew 19:29 GNT
And everyone who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, on account of my name, shall receive a hundred-fold, and inherit
eternal life.
Also, I was set free from this wicked system! Jehovah frees his people from the hand of the wicked one.
Jeremiah 15:20,21 NWT
For I am with you, to save you and to deliver you,” is the utterance of Jehovah. 21 “And I will deliver you out of the hand of the bad ones,
Never give up on the truth!
You left a cult yeah right you want to do what you want,and don't want to conform to bible standards. I was the same disfellowshipped as a teen for engaging in fornication which the bible condemns i loved women 😂😂😂
It's a cult bro theres no such thing as a governing body it's all lies
The JWs are indeed a destructive cult. You can do whatever you want within the cult or outside the cult. Plenty of people in that cult are having affairs and committing crimes. Plenty of people outside of it are doing the same.
