At the 130th Annual Meeting on October 4th, 2014, a special resource for Jehovah’s Witnesses was unveiled. A new website called “JW Broadcasting” (tv.jw.org) would feature videos promoting the work of the Watchtower organization, and every month an hour-long video would be uploaded to be presented by a Governing Body member.
Jehovah’s Witnesses who wish to hear both sides of the arguments presented by the organization and its leaders can watch rebuttal videos produced each month by this website’s founder, Lloyd Evans, on his “John Cedars” YouTube channel. Here is a playlist…

Is this the latest thing? Setting up ‘god tv’ everywhere.
Cedar or Lloyd is making a fortune off of all of u, Followers. Does he ever have time to get involved in responding your comments.
What is his profession? He’s written books, tours, making money from the ex witnesses. Unreal! No one questions him. Its easier to talk to a GB member than to him.
Usially people criticise just what they suffer from.
Well I can say that he does not broadcast from a fancy studio set while wearing flashy jewelry all the while telling his “followers” that they need to listen to him or suffer harsh consequences. Nor does he await a glorious day in which he gets to help righteously slay everyone who does not think the way that he does.
And yes, JWSurvey does often respond to questions and comments.
It’s not true. Lloyd is very friendly and openhearted, and he’s ready to communicate with adequate people
That’s funny, because I email Cedars and he responds.
As far as getting rich, that’s conjecture on your part. Why don’t YOU make YouTube videos and do all the work that goes with it?
What’s his professional occupation? Who cares? I hope he goes to school and becomes a journalist, because he’s the closest thing to a journalist the ex-JW community has. He doesn’t do it all alone, of course.
If you have a problem with people getting rich off of others, then take a good look into organized religions.
Jeanie,
Make a fortune off of people too! What stops you? :)
I completely support DATA-DOG comments.
Excuse me the Watchtower Society is a Multi-Billion Dollar Organization. Oh wait that’s right they aren’t as wealthy because they are settling sexual abuse cases with Fellow JW’s hard earned money. Writing a book does not make a person wealthy. You got to write a lot of books, and they have be turned into movies if you going to make a big bucks. Lloyd is simply giving information that the public can reflect on and make their own decisions regarding JW’s. I sit here a sexual and physically abused woman, who attending the Kingdom Hall, never baptized who has never even been invited to my brother, aunt, cousins home for a cup of coffee. If I hear from any of them it is to tell me someone died. They believe it is their JW right to dictate the relationship, so I moved 3000 miles away because there is no way I will be in a one-sided relationship with people who think they are too good to have me sit at their table for dinner with them. My Sister-in-Law there so called good Christian sister never called me when my 25 year old pregnant daughter passed away. Twice a year I might get a text from my brother who is an Elder, I believe he is easing his conscious by making sure I am not laying dead in my home. I am not a conformist, I cannot be brainwashed, and I did not imagine my JW stepfather putting his hands down my pants or viciously attacking me and trying to murder me with a KNIFE. People need these books, website, and broadcast to help undo the BRAINWASHING.
I thing the best thing that has happened to Watchtower id Steven Lett on video. Really!. We should all right in letters of how touching his video broadcast are. Maybe this will inflate his ego and he would do more videos. Effectively making your job easier. NO sarcasm intended. I really believe his ego will grow

JW Broadcast is awesome! It has really helped me to see what is truly important in life!!! I absolutely LOVE it!!
Trish…could you elaborate on your comment about JW Broadcasting being ‘awesome’?
Would like to hear more!
Peace
Mark
Why are you apparently angry with her comment.
Hi Tish. Just saw your comment. Sorry for the delay in replying.
I am not angry about her comment and I can’t see why you think I would be.
I asked a perfectly legitimate question, asking Trish to elaborate on her comment as to why JW Broadcasting is ‘awesome’.
She hasn’t replied yet, so I don’t know what she means.
Again, I am not angry.
Peace.
Mark.
Hi Tish,

I can’t stand JW Broadcasting. I don’t like plastic face Bro. Lett who talks to us like we are kindergarden children.
I don’t like learning that now our organization believes Jehovah controls the weather. When did we start believing this?
I don’t like being asked for donations. I stopped donating years ago when I started seeing the wastage which goes on in our org.
I don’t like being told not to go for higher education. I went to uni, loved it, used my degree to work in a country in need. I was RP while going to uni and when overseas.
I don’t like seeing all these young annointed GB members.
I love watching Cedars thoughts on JW Broadcasting. As do other Witnesses I know.
Hey, sounds like you don’t like much. Talk about a “Debbie Downer”.
As a Dub, I was raised to abhor Televangelists…
Hi Lloyd,
I couldn’t find a scanned version of the August 1879 WT you were after but on this site there is a converted-to-text version. The text you quoted from is on page 46 of the PDf document.

I will keep looking though.
Fantastic observation about Russell’s comments and I too share your respect for the man. If he truly is in heaven now, then he can’t be too impressed that the organisation is going against his wishes of not soliciting money!
Thanks. I wouldn’t say I respect Russell, but I find his attitude and sentiments regarding financial matters far more admirable.
Charles Taze Russel came from the adventist believers. He was a businessman till his dead. It is something interesting that we know that the GB are “liaers”, manipulate, mindcontrol etc but they help indirected me through honoust people into the Netherlands. God use people even when the mankind religion is not from Him.
“he can’t be too impressed that the organisation is going against his wishes of not soliciting money”

You make as much sense as JW Broadcasting.
Tis a spam post – surprised it is not deleted.
@Fritz,
Are you obliquely meaning that JW Broadcasting is a spam broadcast?
Great u tube clip. I couldn’t agree more about the governing body was only in a humble portrait, now they are a star feature. Also what about the pins and stickers jws wear to self promote? When I was little my mom told me that we didn’t want to be like Jews and were outward symbols to signal. Why the change?
Do you thinknkw Jehovah would be mad with a name badge that directs people to our website which contains scriptural information. JEHOVAH GAVE us his word for crying out loud. YET ANOTHER ATTACK ON God’s people. The day will soon come….
the day will come… What?? Is it a threat? What loving people are you JW’s….
between the Mexican brothers who can’t sleep at night and the Malawian brothers asleep in death, I wonder whether anyone dreams of JW pins
No comment
That was deep.
People and religious organizations are free to promote themselves by whatever means they deem necessary. However, those like the Watchtower’s organization who make baseless claims of having exclusive authority given to by Almighty God in the year 1918 appropriately leave themselves open to intense scrutiny which is justified.
The Watchtower and it’s governing body have advertised in print for about 100 years that they alone have the approval of God and that all other “Christians” are but tools of Satan the Devil. Now that they have aquired a television studio, they can continue to preach their hatred for the world, non-Witnesses and ex-Witnesses globally over the worldwide web more easily.
Jehovah’s Witnesses also teach an unbiblical “doctrine” of Jesus’ parousia in 1914. However, Jesus himself clearly indicated that his parousia or presence would be in connection with the destruction of the second temple in Jerusalem in 70 AD. Of course Jesus was right and Witnesses are wrong.
God bless.
Well said, Larry.
Larry I have never heard a JW preach hate. And the station evidently is to encourage their own members positively and to stay connected with each Other worldwide . I think u and this critic have found some points u personally disagree with and r focused all on that so u have missed the enormous good and positive effect of these people as a whole,
Teaching that anyone who even even slightly disagrees with their narrow interpretation of scripture is mentally diseased and proclaiming that every single man, woman, and child alive who are not active members of their sect deserve death shows just how loving and warm they truly are.
Don’t believe me? Look it up in the Watchtower.
WS
JW’s don’t preach hate. Not from the platform perhaps. But you try correcting an elder when he has done something wrong. He and his buddies will treat you like dirt, make sure you get no privileges, and perhaps forge a letter from the Governing Body telling you to be quiet and make peace with the elders.
In ignoring the mental, emotional and sexual abuse that goes on by our leaders, perhaps JW’s are not preaching hate. But it’s a funny sort of love.
I can see that many who speaks against the WTGB still harbour long-held animosity and hangs on to simple misunderstanding they had with somebody in the organization they hold in high esteem, an “angel” so to speak. Wake up! jws aren’t angels, they’re jst normal people like members of other religion.
I’ve seen many people change their religion, but almost none of them make it their goa/career to tear down the religion from which they leave. So i think pple who make this their goal should GET A LIFE! And try to do better things with their life.
Assuming jws believe a LIE and many of the explanations the GB teaches them aren’t true. Does not other religions have doctrines which aren’t entirely correct? Can any so-called “Christian” religion come close to what the WTGB is doing in Educating people about wht the bible says? (even tho some might say they study the bible incorrectly)
Here in Nigeria where I live, I know how much pastors and so called men of God recieve as salaries and renumerations. Even Drummers, guitarist and other church choristers are not letf out on the churches’ payrole. To whom was all the paid money accounted? Does even the church members from whom the money was extorted by way of Curseful prayers know how their monies was spent? What about the flamboyant lifestyles of the so called” men of god”? Some even have their own Private jets. All these too are catered for by the “involuntary extortion” of the church nembers. So now, compare this with what someone here called “wasteful spending by the WT” On what unnecessary things was Donated funds spent?
As I have written earlier, most negative remarks made abt the WTGB are a result of past grievances you might have had with someone in the organization or even a GB member. It will be good if you let go of such malice and move on with your life. Pls don’t carry it too much: as you knw the longer you carry it, the heavier & more painful it becomes.
I’ve never been a JW and am on the outside looking in and can clearly see the Watchtower and it’s cowardly corrupt leadership, supported by an army of sycophantic deluded minions have blood on their hands and are more than willing to let people die rather than admit they are wrong and so risk losing the power they have over their followers.
My observation: I think they are, in fact, trying to move on with their lives. Unfortunately, being the object of shunning-til-death has a way of not allowing them to move forward. In my opinion, the malice is coming from the other side as a means of humilitation and manipulation. There is absolutely no refuting this. And it’s sick. Emotional abuse poised as a sick type of “love”. Kudos to all for being true to themselves. I don’t understand why anyone would want to join an organization that has membership made up of people who are “faking it” just to keep their families together.
You are so wrong – they were given authority in 1919.
@Fritz,
How do you know? Did you see it?
Thank You Brothers that whom follow Jah’s direction and came to my door in September 1967. Where would I be now without the loving arms of our Heavenly Father accepting my bride and I.
Cliff and Deborah Spicer
So your plan for that day, was to see a over one hour long video, to be able to try to pin point everything that is wrong with that video.
You take out time from your day, to down talk
a organization that have brought so much joy to peoples life, when they have been in their darkest days. Even if you don’t believe in it, people has gone through ridicule, even death for something they really whole heatedly believe in. A belief that bring some type wholesomeness in this corrupt world. That give fellow humans something to look forward to in life.
But You, you awesome guy. . Has a made a website. And even has such some a catchy name to it too. Made a website that will confuse people, even the actual google browser (that was just trying to look for the direction to the assembly hall in brooklyn, NY.)
Daisy, this organization may have brought much joy to some people. But it has brought great suffering, too. I am one of the victims of this organization, a sheep who loves Jehovah but has been kicked in the guts again and again and again. It has ruined my life.
It has brought the darkest days I have ever experienced in my life. And yet I am still your brother. I still go along to get further kicked in the guts.
Before telling others how wonderful our organization is, give some thought to those of us who have been mentally and emotionally abused by it. Then, let those in glass houses not throw stones.
I have enjoyed Cedars videos very much. Some very pertinent points are brought out by them. I suggest you view his discussion about asking for donations, about Jehovah controlling the weather, and the one about higher education.
Totally agree with you. In my case has happened something similar, and still alive.
Greetings from Mexico
i think jw broadcasting is good for all the people. i remember when i was so down, this video helps me a lot. even im not jehovahs witnesses, i respect them a lot. i meet once a jw and he help me to find my way home when i used to lost my way..they are good people. they give free bible and books..they are really awesome. Their preaching is like the way Jesus and his disciples did.
Yes? When did Jesus and his disciples give books? When did jesus go door to door?
Read Act 5:42
“And every day in the temple and from house to house they continued without letup teaching and declaring the good news about Christ, Jesus”
Xmas, the most important thing to consider when preaching from “house to house” is if you are telling truths according to the Bible or are you preaching what the Watchtower claims in in the Bible.
Can you prove that the Society is telling the truth about, say the cross?
I have an original copy of the 1885 copy of the Imperial Bible Dictionary and the Society only quotes partially in the Reasoning book what that dictionary said about whether or not Jesus would have died on the cross.
If the Society was being truthful about what that dictionary said about the cross, they would have to say that that dictionary says Jesus would have died on a cross. I for one can not promote lies or a religion that lies in order to convert people to it.
Also, you should do a little research about when Jerusalem was destroyed. Only the Watchtower society claims that ancient Jerusalem was destroyed in 607 B.C.E and not 586/587 B.C.E. Every other source will say that without a doubt, Jerusalem was destroyed 20 years later.
According to the book “Is This Life All there Is?” printed by the Watchtower Society in 1974 it says on page 46:
“Knowing these things, what will you do? It is obvious that the true God, who is himself “the God of truth” and who hate lies, will not look with favor on persons who cling to organizations that teach falsehood. (Psalm 31:5; Proverbs 6:16-19; Revelation 21:8) And, really, would you want to be even associated with a religion that had not be honest with you?”
According to their own words, you should not be associated with that religion because they knowingly tell lies to convert people.

jw are peacemaker people.
They long for Armaggedon when billions will killed in horrific way… They shun even family members… they let their children die… They are homophobics… But yes, JW are peacemaker people… Mmmm…
They observe every word of the Bible. It has to be a narrow gate indeed, if you follow mainstream or popular gospel then you are perhaps a friend of the world, read John 17:16. If you follow the second commandment you can not be bipartisan or support a war or fight against another nation because you may be killing a fellow christian. How does that settle with the God of love?
You support war too! A war bigger than ever!! A war where your god will slaughter men, women and children only because they’re not JWs. I almost prefer the current wars!!!
Dear Xmas. Jehovah gave the law to Moses right? Then that law has to be perfect and you say the Jehovah’s Witnesses follow every word of the Bible so then you would be burning women who are prostitutes and you can buy and sell your children as slaves and you can kill your slaves and you can have your children stoned to death if they don’t show respect for every word you say and you can kill your new wife if she can’t prove her virginity on your wedding night and by the way, there are three separate variations of the “ten commandments” in the Bible and the only one that is the same is that they could be killed if they didn’t observe the Sabbath.
The real ten commandments (Ex. 24:28) in Exodus chapter 34, says that one of the ten commandments (Ex. 34:20) “And the firstling of an ass you are to redeem with a sheep. But if you will not redeem it, then you must break its neck. Every firstborn of your sons you are to redeem. And they must not appear before me empty-handed.”
Tell me Xmas, if you observe every word of the Bible, do you redeem your first born ass and your first born children? Do you know what it meant to “redeem” your ass and your child? Do you follow the Sabbath? If your daughter is raped, would you force her to marry her rapist?
Those are the laws that Jehovah gave to the nation of Israel and they were supposedly perfect since it was Jehovah who gave that law to the nation of Israel.
Even Jesus followed the law didn’t he, except when he didn’t want to as in the case of saving an animal on the Sabbath.
If you say that Christians are not under the Mosaic Law anymore because Jesus nailed it to the stake then the only laws that you would need to follow is to love Jehovah with your whole mind, soul and strength and to love your fellow man as yourself.
Tell me, which laws of the Bible do Jehovah’s Witnesses follow exactly since they all came from Jehovah? Are the Mosaic Laws still in force? They were perfect. If you are referring to the perfect law of Jesus, that sure does leave a lot of wiggle room, doesn’t it?
You are not in a covenant relationship with Jehovah because only the “anointed” are so since you aren’t in that covenant relationship with Jehovah, you should be sacrificing sheep and redeeming your first born asses and your firstborn children.
Only the anointed or the Governing Body are in a covenant relationship with Jehovah.
You should get out your Insight on the Scriptures and look up mediator and see for yourself.
Dear Xmas, it is interesting that you don’t use any scriptures to prove the JW religion is on the right track but just one you should be very familiar with since you brought it up in your comment is Matthew 28:18 from the revised New World Translation
“Jesus approached and spoke to them, saying: “All authority has been given me in heaven and on the earth.”
We used Matthew 28:19 and 20 all the time to make Witnesses feel guilty if they didn’t spend every minute preaching but what they don’t read and pay attention to is where Jesus said that all authority had “already” been given him 2,000 years ago.
There are no scriptures in the Bible that indicate that Jehovah waited another 2,000 years until 1914 to give him all authority.
It is fiction that the Watchtower organization came up 1914 to say that Jehovah would have waited until 1914 to give all authority to Jesus, which by the way the Watchtower says that Jesus isn’t Jesus but Michael, an angel.
If Jesus was Michael when he was in heaven before coming to the earth as a baby and then when he died, he returned back to heaven as Michael, then in reality, you should be referring to and praying through Jesus as Michael, not Jesus.
Jesus was only his human name but how many people pray in Michael’s name? JW’s always pray in the name of Jesus and Jesus was only a human.
In one of the latest JW shows, one of the Governing Body was referring to Jesus as Michael over and over again so you don’t have an excuse not to refer to the resurrected Jesus as Michael and not Jesus. They got that teaching from the 7th day Adventists but in the first issue of the Watchtower and Herald of Christ’s presence, Russell said that Jesus was not Michael the archangel.
Jehovah’s Witnesses don’t use the Bible anymore when they are doing the cart work because they are not being schooled in the Bible when it comes to refuting people who can use their Bibles to prove the Witnesses are ignorant in the Bible except for only the verses they have been schooled in to disprove the Trinity or hell fire or the immortal soul. As far as the rest of the Bible, they are ignorant and easily disproved.
I believe that is real reason you are not using the Bible to prove any of your points.
A sister – yes a sister, posted a picture not too long back of a guy standing in front of, what looked to be a bombing of some buildings… He was taking a selfie on his phone. The caption read ‘Me at Armageddon’…. She was very pleased with it.. said she couldn’t wait. Obviously she has never seen the aftermath of a bombing. the dead bodies, the dead children, the destruction… no, she was gloating that soon god will step in and destroy all those who are not ‘God’s people’. I say ‘wow’ how Christian is that. And if that is Christianity for you, then you can stick it.
They love war and killing. They hate all who do not think like them and do not have their lifestyle. They can not wait to see them all dead and take their revenge on the world. They are just too cowardly to get their hands dirty, and they let their god to do their dirty work for them.
Spot On!
Caroline, I will certainly need to state the fact that by following every word of the Bible I am excluding the Mosaic law. Because the Bible states that too, with newer covenants that followed.
But thanks for pointing that out so it can be clear.
Discussions of things like the cross, and other relics can take forever. You will have to take that from the Hebrew and Aramaic originals. We know how the Bible was translated in the British rulership.
I am just an observer of God’s word, and amazed at how it keeps being true with each passing day. I also observe very keenly how denominations are succumbing to popular trends, and how denomination leaders are helping make Biblical prophesies come true with their behavior, amassing riches, acceptance of unnatural trends among man. By their fruits you shall now them, the Bible says. Anything, including Christmas, that is not cemented by God will eventually show decay. What has remained of Christmas now is Santa, the Tree and gifts, almost entirely a money making machine.
God’s beloved son, is now back as ruler, Master worker and King seated at the right hand side of his Father. He is not a baby anymore. And any such depiction…
Also, at some point, before his baptism, Jesus was a carpenter by trade, if he wanted people to move around with relics or carvings I can bet he would have nicely carved an image of himself, ” so called cross”, his Father and some other heavenly bodies for people to be kissing and kneeling down to. Why didn’t he, and why should we?
I have not quoted any verses, because it seems people on this forum know the scriptures after all.
When all is said and done each one shall carry his/her own load.
@Xmas, according to Jesus’ own words at Matthew 28:18 all authority had already been given to Jesus 2,000 years ago. It’s only Watchtower that goes against what the Bible says and says that Jesus was given authority in 2014.
Another thing is that you (Witnesses) are taught that Jesus isn’t Jesus any more now that he is back in heaven. He was an angel in heaven before he became a baby in Mary’s womb and is only an angel (Michael)now that he’s back in heaven again.
Why don’t you pray in the name of Michael, the ark angel? Why doesn’t the first verse of the Bible say “Michael” created the heavens and the earth? Why does it say God created the heavens and the earth? Is Michael and Jehovah God the same person since the only thing that Jehovah created by himself was Michael the ark angel?
When the apostle Paul was referring to Jesus and Jesus was back in heaven by then, why didn’t Paul refer to Jesus as Michael? Why did he refer to Jesus as Jesus?
Think about it.
THE cross is loved and respected by millions of people. The Encyclopædia Britannica calls the cross “the principal symbol of the Christian religion.” Nevertheless, true Christians do not use the cross in worship. Why not?
An important reason is that Jesus Christ did not die on a cross. The Greek word generally translated “cross” is stau·rosʹ. It basically means “an upright pale or stake.” The Companion Bible points out: “[Stau·rosʹ] never means two pieces of timber placed across one another at any angle . . . There is nothing in the Greek of the [New Testament] even to imply two pieces of timber.”
In several texts, Bible writers use another word for the instrument of Jesus’ death. It is the Greek word xyʹlon. (Acts 5:30; 10:39; 13:29; Galatians 3:13; 1 Peter 2:24) This word simply means “timber” or “a stick, club, or tree.”
Explaining why a simple stake was often used for executions, the book Das Kreuz und die Kreuzigung (The Cross and the Crucifixion), by Hermann Fulda, states: “Trees were not everywhere available at the places chosen for public execution. So a simple beam was sunk into the ground. On this the outlaws, with hands raised upward and often also with their feet, were bound or nailed.”
The most convincing proof of all, however, comes from God’s Word. The apostle Paul says: “Christ purchased us, releasing us from the curse of the Law by becoming a curse instead of us, because it is written: ‘Accursed is every man hung upon a stake [“a tree,” King James Version].’” (Galatians 3:13) Here Paul quotes Deuteronomy 21:22, 23, which clearly refers to a stake, not a cross. Since such a means of execution made the person “a curse,” it would not be proper for Christians to decorate their homes with images of Christ on a cross.
There is no evidence that for the first 300 years after Christ’s death, those claiming to be Christians used the cross in worship. In the fourth century, however, pagan Emperor Constantine became a convert to apostate Christianity and promoted the cross as its symbol. Whatever Constantine’s motives, the cross had nothing to do with Jesus Christ. The cross is, in fact, pagan in origin. The New Catholic Encyclopedia admits: “The cross is found in both pre-Christian and non-Christian cultures.” Various other authorities have linked the cross with nature worship and pagan sex rites.
Why, then, was this pagan symbol promoted? Apparently, to make it easier for pagans to accept “Christianity.” Nevertheless, devotion to any pagan symbol is clearly condemned by the Bible. (2 Corinthians 6:14-18) The Scriptures also forbid all forms of idolatry. (Exodus 20:4, 5; 1 Corinthians 10:14) With very good reason, therefore, true Christians do not use the cross in worship. *
Your argumentation seems to be merely a regurgitation of Watchtower rhetoric. Why not consider some of the opposing viewpoints from history, archeology, and the antenicene fathers. A good summary can be found here: http://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/cross-or-stake.php

er is dan toch iemand die het echt onderzoekt
I should have said the year 1914 when Jesus was supposedly given all authority in heaven and earth, not 2014.
Now the old 1914 theory….is completely falling apart! lol
Which, by the way, makes everything else not make any sense or reason? The Society is slowly losing ground on holding the Sheep! The sheep will stray more NOW than ever!

Hello guys ‘n gals,
has anyone noted that JW have been given a new model prayer via the Oct. 2016-broadcast?
Check it out, it’ starts at 8:40:
Henceforth, JW are to pray …
… that God’s Kingdom may come;
… that His name may be santified;
… THAT HE MAY BLESS THE JW.ORG-CEOs AND ALL THAT EXERCISE LEADING FUNCTIONS WITHIN THE ORG;
… matters of personal concern;
… forgiveness of sins.
Oh yeah. Their impudence knows no bounds nor limits. Not that we wouldn’t already have known about this practice of “prayerfully elevating” JW-Org-CEOs, or that it wouldn’t be customary to praise this committee of small, imperfect and self-promoting fat cats to being the object of fervent prayers (and it often sounds to me as if such prayes are not really directed to God the Father, but TO THE SO-CALLED “GOVERNING BODY” ITSELF, like “We thank the FADS/the GB for having given us this and that/for doing such and such…”), but now, it has been officially cast in stone that this is the way a “good” JW has to pray. Whatever comes out of the mouth of the JW.Org is LAW among “faithful” and “loyal” JW, and the prayer-template shown above is not only to be understood as a mere suggestion, but as a PATTERN TO BE FOLLOWED.
What else can be said? Oh yes:
“Whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.” – Mat 23,12.
Love your youtube videos…keep up the good work
wow a lot of disobedient JWs commenting here not being faithful in what is least, always makes me smile :)
Lol
You can twist everythink, but remember: biblical God is Creator, you liked or not. ”9miliion every year kids died”, look at Exodus 22:22 and think… there is more links about ‘fatherless’. Jehova cares even for you.
@Vytas, we appreciate that Jehovah loves us. We have had to repeat that time after time after time to ourselves because of the disgraceful way we are treated by our spiritual brothers who are claiming to worship Jehovah.
That those who worship a loving God, and especially the leaders, treat some of the sheep like we are dung they have stood in with their shoes, because they don’t like us, is hardly fitting.
It used to be that the GB was unknown. It would have been a struggle name them. Now it seems to be all about them. They have reached celebrity status. People at conventions and elsewhere want to get selfies with them. It’s about God not some guys calling the shots who are uninspired and fallible. According to their own words.
Most all of these comments are so depressing. It’s sad to see that so many have lost touch with the “Good News Of Gods Kingdom” and are only interested in trying to put down the One organization who preaches this message World wide. Is it a perfect organization? Of course not. But neither was the Israelites when Jehovah was their God. This reminds me of Acts 5:33-40 “38 And so, under the present circumstances, I say to YOU, Do not meddle with these men, but let them alone; (because, if this scheme or this work is from men, it will be overthrown; 39 but if it is from God, YOU will not be able to overthrow them;) otherwise, YOU may perhaps be found fighters actually against God.”
Greetings Levi
I like your quote, including the part which says ” if this scheme or this work is from men, it will be overthrown;”
Have you considered the fact that the JW religion is in the process of being “overthrown?” We wish no harm to any individual, but as a society we simply cannot allow a religious organization to continue to indoctrinate millions, ruin their opportunity for higher education, cover up and mis-handle child abuse cases, and cause death because of completely senseless and irrational blood policy. This will come to an end, just as it will for other religions who are equally guilty, like Scientology
We stand up for truth and justice, and we will never give up this honorable pursuit. Finally- one more thing. If you believe in a God who will execute 99% of his own creation at Armageddon, just as he did in the fabled flood, then I would absolutely agree that we are “fighters actually against God.” This is not a god any rational or loving god would ever wish to serve.

I am 60yo that was in the JW’s for 3 years, I was told to tow the line of The Watchtower But what I don’t understand is why all the cover ups?
If there is nothing to hide why the secret elders books which contains one rule for elders and one rule for the others?
Why hide suicides, why hide an individuals records, why not report child sexual abuse and when u present bible scriptures to support this you are dismissed like a child.
When u look at the definition of what a cult is please fill in the blanks for yourself.
Why are they building a compound? Another Jones Town?
I personality believe in 90% of the doctrine But when u have Geffory Jackson come out and not make a stand for Jehovah “The Governing Body MIGHT not be Jehovah’s only spokespersons” while the rank and file are dying making a stand for Jehovah makes me think has real apostates infiltrated the Watchtower.
I don’t understand the apostate that conducts this website. If you are against the witnesses, just walk away and do your own thing. These people that leave the organization are more informed of the latest information, the latest conventions than the actual JW’s.
Please don’t tell me it’s because of love for the innocent ones that are still in the religion! Isn’t the truth that there is greed involved. All these apostate sites are probably making money as they gain followers. No one is forcing you to stay, but if you are walking away, do so without looking back. And one more thing, if you are trying to save all the JW’s, What Better Hope Do You Offer Instead.. Only Jehovah’s people give true hope of eternal life based on the bible. If these GB members are just men claiming to be something else, Jehovah will let the truth be known at its proper time.
let god expose them in due time…..let children’s abuse be dealt with in due time….abused women be dealt in due time….but see someone smoking and god has to have them to the elders asap…….don’t make me laugh…..excuses…..pitiful excuses
Lloyd, I don’t know how you could watch such boring broadcasts. Thanks for the torture you go through to give us an excellent report.
I know this is way old post, but here is a link to a site that has a lot of scanned PDFs of old pubs. http://da-ip.getmyip.com/PDF/Publications/Old%20Publications/1800s/
the August 1879 WT is there too
if the link fails just google JW transcripts and you’ll see the http://da-ip,getmyip.com/PDF then click on it and browse
What an incredibly moronic statement to make.
In fact, I find this akin to the Watchtower – dramatic assertions, but no testable, supporting evidence.
@Jeannie, better late than never. Maybe and hopefully -for your own well being- at least you did ‘just walked away’ yourself since 2017 and without a scratch.
Because really? “just walking away from it” well that’s easy when suffering PTSD or worse or killed yourself because of the lovely shunning practices of JW-org.
And you will reply: that must be warning signs! God’s loving way to tell you “CHILD! RETURN TO THE JW-ORG!”
Your nice organization is ruled by a governing body, you have to thank them in your prayers if you’re a good JW.
Mmmm.. imperfect man, they have to admit themselves, so human beings like you and me: power corrupts even the best of us.
And since they’re broadcasting.. their ego’s are almost jumping out of my screen.
It looks like the pope’s speaking! What’s the hate for Catholics among JW anyway? Just copy-pasting the ways of the pope and his bishops?
Sooo same-same as your governing body and the organization: pretending to be messengers of god, sexual abuse, being very rich and powerful. They were first though: practicing their ‘truth’ like this. Ah.. maybe that’s why
Btw if you’re still visiting this site: be careful to communicate with apostates. You might just meet the one power hungry elder, or just a and be disfellowshipped. Well, you just walk away than right?
And look up sects too! It’s so interesting to see the same dynamics in JW-org!
Jehovah really made it very very difficult to distinguish truth or not isn’t it? Not in your heart, of course that’s not what he meant: to find the right religion I mean.
Why? Are we some kind of sick experiment of an entity traveling the universe?
If you still sucked in as a JW: I take this chance, I want to thank you for me having a chance of maybe dying in Armgaddon: a fantastic dramatic ending of my live instead of the usual.
Humble greetings ;)
This Website is full of haters who are spreading lies about Jehovah’s witness. And Second of all. The organisation is not asking you to believe on Jehovah because Jw’s Believe on Jehovahs. This organisation is asking you to believe and worship Jehovah because thats what Bible says.
