This might offend ones personally, but I really don't mean too.I just believe ones should give their own testamony and expreance, that all facts might be weighted.
First thing I have to add is the religion(Jehovah Witness) itself is less than a hundred years old.Now there has for sure been wittnesses of Jehovah, from the beginning I'm sure.But as a religion called Jehovah Witnesses, it has been claimed to have started in 1919 but even that date is not correct but they came into being several years later.
But I give my own personal experance with this religion, and see it as no better nor lesser than any other man made religion around today.In 1969 I came home from 18 months of Viet Nam to find my girl friend had married a biker type fellow who then managed to kill himself by drinking druging and Harley Davidsons.She then became involved with the JW's and pretty much shined me on.Which I understand now looking back at the stress I was under at the time.
A few months after I was home, she was cought in bed with the local JW elder, by his wife who shot him dead on the spot and then walked out.This occoured in Modesto Californa if anyone doubts, we could probly dig up a few facts.
Later I worked in constrution for a JW who hired many JW's but needed us outsiders in order to make his construction bussiness work.Seems most religious people think sombody owes them a liveing.After years of working for this man, who drank pretty hard(away from home) and I can give testamony of much immoral liveing, which he seemed to think was OK beings he was an elder within his elect people and provided much support financially.The church seemed to agree with this too, kind of like buying your way to heaven or earth in their way of thinking.
I personally have known prostitutes that lived better lives than this mans daugthers, and seeing this man step on many a man to achive wealth, and even to this day lives a very fithy rich life, while many he used suffer.But he does give to the JW church faithfully if that makes you JW followers fill good.
Now I don't say all this to degrade JW's over other religious instatutes, but believe this can be found in most religions today, for they be of mens imaginations, not the will of the Heavenly Father.
I just think if those out there that really Love the Lord God more than their false religious concepts would look within to the true Kingdom of God, they will flee those evil orginazations, that falsly claim to be of the Hevenly Father.
Hate me if you must, but I have to share what I personally have experanced and yet beleive there is a true and liveing God out there that offers much more than these false man made religions that will let you down and leave you emity and suffering in the end.
Reject your false religious concepts, and seek from within, reading the word without mans influance but prayer instead, and see if you don't find freedom to worship a true and liveing God.
It's only been in recent years that JW's even claimed to be Christians and this in itself seems very pathetic.Just search yourself, before the truth comes at a really late date in your personal lives.
