Are You Awake Yet?

No, I don't mean the Jehovah's Witnesses' (JW) publication called the "Awake" magazine although it could be considered a wake-up call to reality that you've been fed a load of lies from the JW organization. The Awake magazine dealt with lighter subject areas and did not delve deeply into Bible topics. However, I think it's time to become fully awake to what this world is offering, both to people who are still JWs and those you have left the organization.

Time to wake up to the fact that some YouTubers make you feel good about sitting there inside your Kingdom Hall and doing nothing. You may know it's not a true religion. You may know that they appear to hide wrongdoing inside the congregations based on connections, social or economic status of the wrongdoer and bad things go on as you justify it in your head that, well, everything is bad, all religions are bad. Fine, but is that what you are truly about? No, you don't have to become a big activist but you do have to take action. Stop letting your inaction speak louder than your words. You may think the JWs are run by a bunch of corporate honchos out to make a buck, but what do you do about it? Well, stop donating to a billion dollar corporation. Then what? Well, do you believe in what the JWs preach and teach? If you answer is yes, then, fine, do nothing. If your answer is no, then research why they are wrong. Go online and look up various Bible translations and see where your beliefs lie and think about if they are positive aspects or negative.

Next, it's time to fire some people. Stop wasting your time with phony activists who are making a buck from special interest groups, groups who would panic if you woke up to the fact you don't need anyone to help you exit a controlling, dangerous religion, one that mandates you take your own life by refusing whole blood transfusions or allowing a loved one to die on the altar of a god named Jehovah.

Many activists are funded by special interests groups that set up a bunch of charities all claiming to help people when all they do is provide a few scriptures and leaked JW letters and call it a day. Some just market their own businesses where they help companies deal with work place situations and conflicts. One such couple were former JWs and have their own marketing business where they do corporate videos. Of course they found a way to grab more cash by marketing their skills to the ex-JW community when they left the organization years ago when their plans of sitting in the JW headquarters' executive suite didn't pan out.

Another former JW man was left homeless when his wife dumped him and fled back to her home country and he was taping videos under a pier in a homeless encampment before the wife let him move back home with her and her parents. They now have a few kids so they can be assured of a nice regular check from the in-laws to support their kids while he works for a charity that funds his worldwide jaunts claiming it's for his activism when the only activism he does is actively hogging bar stools in pubs around the globe while his wife translates marketing websites for gamblers while they sell a few bootleg copies of books written by a now-dead former JW because they think the copyright is as dead as the author and it gives them free rein to do what they shall wilt which is the whole of the law [Crowley style].

These are the people who basically make you feel okay to sit where you are and endlessly dwell on the JW belief system and how wrong it is while you stay and support it either financially or just by you sitting in those Kingdom Halls. Oh wait, now there is the global Plan-demic so gosh, you feel so much better not having to show up at those Kingdom Halls or go in the public preaching work. Why not decide that now is the time you will explore new beliefs or expand your horizons and think outside of the JW box.

A few ex-JWs that I know are now obsessed with politics. They take sides on issues and are living in terror of a flu bug that might bite them in the ass and gee, what then? Sorry to inform readers that we are biological beings and all living things on this planet die, either from old age or disease or by accidents that befall humans everyday. We must live on this planet and deal with the good and the bad and not become obsessed with the contrivances of the world leaders to control the masses.

Yes, now is the time to wake up and become fully awake. Time to grow up and take life as it comes and not hide inside your homes terrified of bacteria. If you are that afraid then you have never lived. You have never experienced true joy or happiness or taken pride in a job well done. You might as well just sit and listen to the endless YouTube videos about what the Watchtower Society is doing next which is just boring drivel. Who cares. Turn your attention away from that dead end religion going nowhere but gee, they sure bow down to the political world, Satan's world, right? Yeah, since Satan signs their little paychecks every month and gives them tax free income every single month. Gosh, Satan sure is a nice guy as long as you sit still and obey.

A good video to get you started on a new pathway to develop your intuition and spirituality, can be found here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6fdFpy9als&list=UUo_fdaL6nGtL3fjyP8NsNaw&index=6

Time to free your heart, mind and soul to a new world that you can create now, especially if you're one of the people stuck inside your home wondering where your next paycheck is coming from. I hope you are not one of the unlucky ones laid off from your job but that is the world we are living in right now. Religion? Where are they? Are they feeding a nation for free? Maybe some are locally, but religion has failed everyone, but at least most don't mandate you kill yourself like the JWs do with turning down potentially life-saving medical treatments; oh gee, a light bulb just went on in my head; depopulation, yeah. Okay; JWs seem to be good with that.

Wake up to the world around you. Start vocalizing what you want to see happen, write down how you will become more productive, write down your hopes and dreams for a wonderful future. You will be surprised what you can manifest when you set your mind, heart and soul to a positive future for yourself and for those around you.

Spin Cycle

Whether you have decided to leave the Jehovah's Witnesses (JW) belief system or are still pondering your next move, you need to be aware that there are myriads of belief systems available to you. If you are satisfied being a JW then you probably aren't reading this anyway and have no interest in exploring the world in which we live and don't care to explore how us humans got here in the first place. You are satisfied with the information fed to you from the Governing Body of men who direct your every thought, word, and action. This is your choice; to turn over your entire life to a group of men who have little interest in your personal welfare other than what's in your wallet right now that you can donate to their global business operations.

I know, you may say that all religions are just a business with a corporate hierarchy that all need your donations to survive and to keep them in wealth while most of the membership remain at poverty level. Nowadays, making 100,000 dollars a year can be considered poverty level in places like California's Silicon Valley or in the posh areas of Manhattan near Sutton Place, which is considered one of the most expensive buildings in New York and you are a mere pauper compared to that group of people. Poverty is redefined nowadays.

So, what do you do once you leave the JWs? Oh, you embark on a mission of self-discovery. You want to explore all the varied belief systems out there or just cop-out and give up and say there is no God and it doesn't matter if I am a lazy old sod that does zilch and cares little about the guy down the street since we all end up as dust anyway with no afterlife. But then there is the rest of us who think our lives have a purpose and we are here to accomplish something and our awakening process means we are aware we've been to this planet before and are here to learn something from our past mistakes or misdeeds.

First of all, the best advice I can give you, is to pick one path and stick with it for a time period. If you listen to dozens of YouTube videos everyday, all filled with people who have all the solutions to life's problems, you will start spinning in circles and become jumbled up in your thinking. No person has the answer to life's mysteries and no one ever will.

I have a few suggested YouTube sites in the footer of this blog that are a good start on your journey to self-discovery and personal freedom. Pick one at a time, not all of them. Test out what the person is saying in one video and see if it piques your interest. Do not start a meditation routine, then a yoga routine, then study crystals, tarot, oh wait, that's from demons [ha], then do muscle testing, a vitamin regime, then become super Christian, then join the Masons or the Mormons [same thing] or some other religious group; you will spin out of control and confuse your mind more than it's confused when you leave the JWs.

You may feel you have wasted so much time in the JW organization that you have to rush into something else. You don't. Number one is to take an assessment of where you are right now. Start a journal and write down your priorities leaving out the spiritual and focusing on the material. Are you doing well at work? Do you have family relationships that need attention? Are you making the money you need to make or want more? Physical needs come first over the spiritual when many think the opposite is true when it's not.

If you feel you are physically in a safe place, then look at where your life is lacking. Obviously, for most of us, we need to get to work everyday to support ourselves or our family. That is your first priority. You now have dumped the weekly study and meetings of the JWs, so think about meditating on your life path. You don't need Dr. Wayne Dyer or anybody else from the cash-grab so-called spiritual community. You don't need to dive into many books about the origins of life, the THEORIES of evolution [notice the emphasis] or on anything else. 

Deprogram first from the Watchtower. They are a Masonic cult of men who have become very wealthy because of you and me and millions of other people caught in their nets. No, I am not talking about the lodge down the street with a bunch of local businessmen making connections. The true Freemasons and its many Societies are the ones running the globe. They are the ones reaching the billionaire mark, oh gee, like the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society and its many corporations. That is the group you, dear reader, will never be in, yet you serve the masters.

Be aware of anyone on the Internet telling you they are a Freemason or a member of one of its Branches or similar Societies because it's like your neighbor telling you they are a member of the Boy Scouts. So what. They are not in the top echelons of those Societies nor are they privy to the secret rituals, language, or networking because they would not be your neighbor in the first place unless you live in one of the neighborhoods of the billionaire boys' clubs. 

Anyone spouting that the Freemasons and their related Societies are just a benign club of do-gooders, has no clue about the Societies they are funding at the upper most levels. The top level Masons would not be so desperate as to do little YouTube videos begging for subscribers so they can collect YouTube advertising pennies. 

Anyone freely disclosing they are a Freemason or Rosicrucian [e.g., Life After Religion YouTube Channel whose founder disclosed this on the Six Screens conference call on October 5, 2019] saying that they are a great group of guys having no connections with Luciferianism, are shills for the societies they serve. Wake up to these people who whitewash these secret societies or claim membership to de-mystify these private cults. I am not talking about the rank and file Freemasons or the rank and file JWs for that matter. They are only herds of cattle in the eyes of the leadership that will eventually be culled.

I hope this information is helpful as you wake up to the real world around you. Do not feel you should be forced into jumping into any specific belief system. This life is a journey, YOUR journey, and if you believe in one God or many creators of the heavens and earth, that Higher Power gave you free will. Use it wisely.

Not Everyone Escapes

You may remember the story about the ex-Jehovah's Witness (JW) named Lauren Stuart and her family, who were all JWs and had left the organization but Lauren never seemed to mentally leave the JWs. 

I blogged about her earlier this year and the link is here:

https://exjwquietactivism.blogspot.com/2018/02/its-sad-when-they-leave.html

I found through the YouTube Channel of Kim/Mikey, video dated November 19, 2018, that the TV show called Investigation Discovery actually covered Lauren's story and provided a reenactment of how the police and detectives believed the murder/suicide unfolded. In case there was any doubt at the time about the reason for Lauren killing her family, her dog, and then turning the gun on herself, is detailed in that TV show. Yes, she started having doubts about leaving the JWs and essentially believed they were right about the end times, that the Great Tribulation and Armageddon were right at her doorstep and about to happen at any time. She felt that the only way out of their predicament of being ousted from the JW organization was to take the lives of her family and herself, since then [according to JW rules], her family would have a chance for everlasting life. Her fate would be in the hands of their God Jehovah who most likely would take pity on her for what she had done. However, this is up in the air with the JWs since they leave that up to Jehovah but would not conduct any type of memorial service for that person who committed suicide, even if they were still an active member of the congregation.

The link to the YT channel is below where Lauren is talked about and a link to the TV program that covered her story.

As we are now in the holiday season, many persons deal with depression and assessing their lives as we close out another year and move into the new year. Even active JWs suffer from depression and suicidal thoughts and many carry that out, my own cousin being one such victim of suicide as I have blogged about here before. He was born and raised a JW, went on to serve at Watchtower headquarters in New York called Bethel, where he had various positions until finally being assigned to the former Brooklyn headquarters as a tour guide. He came back to his home state, married, became an Elder and served for years before I found out much later that he suffered from depression and was deleted as an Elder. In 2017 he committed suicide and there was no JW memorial, nothing, he didn't exist in their eyes and I only found out about his suicide weeks after it happened. Since I am no longer a JW, I was not invited to his gravesite service just held by family members, no official memorial was held by his congregation.

Do not let the JWs steal your life now or your future. If you have finally made that decision to walk away from the JW religion, be proud you made that step to start thinking on your own. If you believe in the Bible, then that is your strength and resource. If you want to explore various spiritual paths, do that now. If you have anxiety around this holiday time of year, let that go now. Calm down and relax, you have no one pushing you to celebrate anything. Do not be intimidated by JW relatives or family that you need to return to Jehovah, but be kind in your responses. Tell them the JWs do not own "the truth", and that truth is found in Scriptures, not in any church of Christendom, which the JWs are a part of. All churches claiming to follow the teachings of Christ are a member of Christendom.

If you feel depression settling in, reach out to trusted non-JW friends, relatives or co-workers. Maybe join a gym, start a daily walk in the park or around your neighborhood and consider adopting a cat or dog to take the focus off of you and onto another living thing that needs your time and focus. Start writing down your feelings and impressions in a private journal that only you know about, maybe carry it in your backpack or keep it in your desk.

This is the time of year to take stock and think about planning a new path for yourself. Don't fall into bitterness or start thinking the JWs are right after all. They have been wrong for over 100 years of existence before they adopted the JW name and changed up the corporation that exists today that is very much involved in this system of things, their so-called Satan's world. Yes, the JWs are profiting off Satan's world and have amassed great fortune while the membership suffer and die, sometimes at their own hand.

If you feel you need to speak with someone, do not be shy about contacting your local suicide prevention center. Sometimes volunteering at a homeless shelter or animal shelter can help you put life in perspective and you will see how lucky you really are right now. You can and will be that person who escapes from the walls of the Watchtower corporation and you will be a success and inspiration to those around you. 

The first step is to detach emotionally from the JWs, then work on the physical and plan your walk out of that Kingdom Hall and never return. They are wrong in their teachings, policies and beliefs. Convince yourself first, then introduce this concept to loved ones. But in the end, we can only save ourselves.

Philadelphia Freedom

The Philadelphia Inquirer is interested in freedom, freedom for people to talk about the growing concern of the Jehovah's Witnesses (JWs) archaic culture of silencing people who are abused by the people inside their respective Kingdom Halls, yes, Halls not churches since this is not a Christian religion. They place Jesus on a phallic symbol stuck in the ground instead of a cross which repels them and they push him off to one side as their leadership take front and center in this organization. Have you seen the vampire movies? Dracula is repelled by the cross much like the JWs. 

When I was a small child, my Catholic grandmother sent me a gold cross necklace which I cherished, but not for long. Once I finally removed it from around my neck and placed it carefully on my nightstand, by morning it was gone. My devout JW mother and father were perplexed. Hmm, where did it go? I searched for it for many days and nights until my mother finally told me she took it because "we" don't want the sign of the cross in our house, it was demonic. I never brought it up again. We were JWs and that was the rule and the JWs are far from being Christian or Christlike.

The leadership of the JWs are a star chamber of men called the Governing Body who live in the New York area after selling off their massive Brooklyn buildings for over one billion dollars, yes, you read right. It is public record they are now billionaires and, not so public is that they are finally in the billionaire boys club and have reached that coveted 33 degree level of the top Masonic elite group of men of the nation. Yes, I keep saying men since the top elite of this world are men with women as basically property and used to further their lineage. To work your way through the Masonic secret society and reach the top levels, it takes money. We are not talking about the local lodges where moms and dads meet to discuss some charity drive, we are talking about the top leadership, same with the Watch Tower corporation. We are not talking about the sheep inside those Kingdom Halls who just do the bidding of the Governing Body by doing the slow death walk into those Halls every single week, trolling around neighborhoods pushing their literature onto householders or publicizing the official JW website, they are the worker drones and seem to be truly blinded and foggy about the truth about their organization.

But finally, the JWs are getting negative press exposing their inner workings. I have blogged about this a few times before but it is worth repeating this and exposing how secretive the JW organization is and continues to be.

Please reference the full article from "The Inquirer" from Philadephia:

http://www.philly.com/philly/news/jehovahs-witnesses-sexual-abuse-children-beliefs-rules.html

The article talks about a four year old girl who was molested inside a Kingdom Hall by a teenage boy while people were meeting for field service, which means, they were pairing off and talking about what territories in the neighborhood they would "work" by knocking on doors and trying to recruit people into their religion. The incident happened about 10 years ago but the article relates other stories about abuses inside the JW organization and nothing is done by the congregational Elders. The article goes on to relate a police detective's experience in dealing with the Elders of a congregation regarding abuse allegations, and how they refused to cooperate. Typical of this religion, they do not cooperate with anyone, they shut down, close ranks and protect the holy Governing Body who to this day, go unchallenged as to their authority over the membership of sheep worldwide. It is quite disturbing that this religious group that only worships the God of this system of things can still thrive, but hey, they are serving the New World Order of men who use God when it suits them while their real God is whomever you want to call him/it, the Devil, Lucifer, Fallen Wicked Angels, but that is what the JWs are, they thrive on this earthly system of things and are hardly spiritual.

Once you start letting those blinders fall off your eyes, you can see many situations as they really are. Don't let a faux Christian religion mislead you anymore. Start reading about spirituality, discover and explore other organizations that are non-denominational. You can read the Bible on your own, there are many translations that use modern wording if you don't like the old style of the King James Bible.

Is it important to get out of the JWs? So many are unaffected by any articles or news reports exposing the JWs for being a secret society that harbors alleged abusers, I say alleged since we don't know. The authorities are never called when a victim or the family of a victim notifies JW Elders of abuse. They handle it internally which means they do nothing and the victim either keeps quiet or moves out of the area away from their abuser. Nothing is done, it is a secret society. Have I said that enough? I know. I was born and raised in it and there are so many things about the JWs that mimic Freemasons. My grandfather was a Freemason, his daughters [one being my mother] were Job's Daughters [sort of a girl's version of the Freemasons]. As I have related on this blog and provide more detail in my book, my mother and her sisters when they were in their 20's, transitioned to becoming JWs. The JWs prey on the innocent and stupid, duping people into thinking their God Jehovah is bringing about an end to this system of things when their God is only a God of War and Destruction.

It is never too late to start your own research. So much now is online and readily available to you. You don't need to travel to the Watch Tower Headquarters in Warwick, New York, and see a bunch of old black and white photos of the founders of this religious group since those photos are already on the Internet. Big deal, right? Some ex-JWs even travel to Warwick to see a bunch of old Bibles and rusty typewriters or a bunch of old literature behind glass, which is just bizarre, and gush over it as if it means anything. It doesn't. Gee, why don't they show you the basement of occult material and their Masonic books of ritualistic practices? You know, the secret cabal of the truly anointed by Jehovah who partake of the bread and wine depicting Jesus' body and blood and then throwing the glasses in the fireplace and chanting to their God Molech. Hmmm, a mystery, right?

Jehovah's Witnesses sacrifice their children to Molech masquerading
as their God Jehovah. The children are sacrificed by their parents
 on operating tables because they purposefully refuse potentially
life-saving blood transfusions.

You also don't need to purchase any voluminous book on the history of the JWs, it is all available for free on the Internet and you can read it at your leisure and print out anything you wish and stick it in a folder for future reference. You do not need the entire huge history of JWs sitting on a bookshelf. We are beyond those days, thank God.

I envy you if you are just starting to wake up and have the courage to start your own research. I still remember when I was waking up and started going on the Internet, it was around 1999 and it was an exciting time for me. Your own discovery and research will be exciting for you too. And yes, you can do it on your own. You are strong, you really do not need anyone to lead you out of the organization. If you are an adult, you can open that Kingdom Hall door to the outside world and never look back.

Who Controls You?

If you are still an active Jehovah's Witness (JW), then you must honestly answer that you are not in control of your own thoughts, actions, or beliefs. You may feel secure in the fact that you are not in control and can't move right or left, but must face forward and be focused only on the JW organization. You may like to simply sit back and zone out and listen to the instructions from the JW literature and from the weekly public talks and the regional conventions that are held throughout the year at various locations only to find out that you are stagnate in life, having no real friends, a job instead of a career that you actually enjoy, and maybe a family that is only with you because of the ties within the congregation.

Other persons are literally starting to wake up to the reality that the Watch Tower Corporation knows little about how to guide you in this life, to prosper physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. You may think I am wrong in saying this. Well, compare where you were five years ago and where you are today. You are the same, right? Still doing the treadmill of weekly meetings, door-to-door recruitment activities or standing my a JW literature cart thinking this counts as preaching the good news of God's Kingdom to the public when you are just staring down at your phone reading text messages waiting for your mandated hours to be up and you can go home and sit and wait for the next JW meeting at the Kingdom Hall.

Where will you be in five years keeping up this same JW routine? You will be the same. You will be stagnate in life. You may think this is fine, I am still young - uh, right, that is the point. The JW leadership of men at the headquarters compound in the New York area, want to steal your youth and destroy any chance you may have in this life. Once you reach 30, 40, or 50, and see that your life meant nothing but pushing JW literature in peoples' hands, and your own life is stagnate, never growing, learning, prospering financially so you can work towards a safe, bright future, no, the Watch Tower has stolen your dreams from you and now that you have woken up at maybe 30, 40 or 50, you see you can no longer afford to go to college and may not have the strength to go to college. Even if you decide to go back to school and you are past 40 years old, no employer is hiring a college grad at 40, they are hiring that 21 year old or the 25 year old who completed college in a profession they chose.

How do you stop other people from controlling you? How do you start making your own decisions? Obviously, if you still live at home with your parents, you must obey them. However, it doesn't mean you can't start planning now for your future. High School and community colleges offer career counseling. Don't be afraid if your parents threaten you with eviction. Start now and think about forming some solid friendships outside of the JW culture. You can do this by confiding in a friend now, tell them your plans. You need a solid foundation in this life first, then you can explore other options once you are stable in your life.

If you are an adult and decide to think for yourself, it can be very scary. Seek out non-JW online self-help videos and websites. Seek out friends at work who may or may not be religious. Religion really has nothing to do with this. You can be a spiritual person and realize that a Grand Creator or Godlike Being made this earth and all life without joining any religious group.

Are you constantly watching the official JW Broadcasting videos? Have you noticed the large blue screen behind the speaker? It has wavy lines going through the constantly moving image that can cause a hypnotic effect upon the viewer as you listen to the speaker's rehearsed and scripted lines that are meant to draw in the viewer to start agreeing with the statements made. They show a video of someone crying to get the viewer to cry or show you a sad lonely person who needs JW literature crammed on bookshelves in order to be happy. They may show you a vision of their manufactured scene of the "new system", a future world they think they can promise will happen, but they can't. No human has power over your life or your death. No human can give you everlasting life on any paradise in heaven or on earth. Yet, this is what they are selling to you. Click off the JW channel and you will slowly start to think more rationally.

The blue colors, spheres, and images are commonly used by the U.S. Government,
the United Nations, and by the Freemasons, as well as in their logos as do the JWs.
That video screen behind the speaker is constantly in motion.
Image is from JW.ORG

The monthly JW broadcasting videos are designed to funnel you into a specific direction:

1) Calm, slow way of speaking.
2) Hypnotic background.
3) May include an experience from a third-world country to make you embarrassed about how much you have in the U.S. and in Western societies.
4) Get you to feel sad and start to cry over some poor JW in another part of the world having to walk barefoot for miles to a Kingdom Hall.
5) Then, their vision of everlasting life on an earthly paradise.
6) Finally, donate to their world-wide work.

Hey, I don't listen to those JW videos! I watch only commentary on them by an alleged ex-JW who views himself as an expert on the JW religion! Wrong. Turn off the commentary videos and websites too. They are designed to sucker you into their own world of mind control techniques, getting you hooked on their YouTube channels, clicking on their ads, and getting you hooked on every word that comes from the JW headquarters and somehow, making you feel you need to know what they are doing or saying at every moment. Trust me, you don't. You need to turn away from these types of YouTube channels and start focusing on that one person that needs to get moving and get on with their life, that being you, dear reader.

The JW organization never changes. They come up with new schemes, new videos, new gimmicks, all designed to make you think they are moving forward, when they are moving in circles, desperate to come up with more cash grab schemes from recycled gimmicks that worked decades ago and they update them for today's membership. They want you sitting home and afraid of the outside world unless you have JW literature in your hand or pushing a JW literature cart around a mall. Same with the constant ex-JW YouTube commentary videos that seem to get longer and longer in length, making you sit there for 2 hours or more listening to their opinions or simply insulting the Governing Body and their monthly broadcasts creating frustration inside of the viewer. Turn off these useless videos and start looking towards something that will bring you away from the mind controlling techniques used by Watch Tower and those who feel they have left yet are still obsessed with their every move. The JW leadership fuel ignorance and so do some ex-JW YouTubers, as if you can't think for yourself. 

Start a journal and get your thoughts on paper. Spend time with yourself away from interruptions for at least an hour per day. Ask yourself these questions. They may help sort things out for you and provide you with new clarity in your life:

1) What are you attracted to that you take for granted?

2) What repels you?

3) Where did your reactions to these questions come from in the first place? Where did your opinions come from? A mental barrier goes up with certain words with a negative association. Ask yourself why you react in a certain way to words, thoughts, or impressions. Not just related to the JW organization, but to life. Where did your world view come from?

4) Are you not open to other beliefs or opinions? Why can't men cry? Why do women have to be cooks and housewives? You get the message here.

5) How can you change your response to the paradym?

6) How does it affect your health and energy?

7) What is the path to greater awareness or to your own self-destruction?

Get to the root of why you feel a certain way. Is it taken for granted, something good or bad? Have a fresh perspective on things and form no opinions at first. Explore new things in your life away from hearing someone else give their own opinions, whether it's critical or not of the Watch Tower teachings. Don't let other people give you an opinion, start with looking objectively at an issue or policy of the Watch Tower organization. 

Don't keep looking for validation for what you choose to believe or not. Take things one step at a time, there is no rush to leave the JWs, but you can start distancing yourself by missing meetings, stop going out in their preaching working, take a step back and tell people you need to sort things out for yourself and take a sabbatical. Do not let threats of death and destruction sway your decision to leave the JWs, but again, there is no hurry. Work at your own pace.

The Bible and many belief systems are freely available to anyone. Fear is the first thing to set aside, including, being on your own. I was on my own when I first left the Watch Tower Society. I made my own way and continue to express myself in this blog and seek out new interests and read many books all the time. I have suggested YouTube channels in the footer of this blog from ex-JWs and non-JWs alike. I sometimes link to a good video from an ex-JW in my blog entries that I think are helpful.

A link to a very good NON-JW video to watch on this subject of mind control is below.

Once you stop being afraid to separate yourself from the JW mindset, you will find your life path starts to reveal itself to you. You will not regret it as you free yourself from the mind controlling effects of the JWs.

Lord's Evening Meal

On Saturday, March 31, the Jehovah's Witnesses (JWs) will have their annual celebration and memorial of the death of Jesus Christ. They give a special talk on that night and pass around emblems representing Jesus' body and blood. As many may know, only a select few of "anointed" ones are allowed to partake of the emblems. There are no written rules on who may be deemed anointed by God to partake of the emblems but it is a secret society of men who will determine this. Mostly, it is based on those from long ago who are now dead, who were prophets and disciples of Christ and in recent years, only a select clique are truly considered anointed. 

Yes, it is a vague arrangement, as an honest and sincere JW may believe they are anointed by God and Christ and go ahead and partake of the emblems passed around the Kingdom Hall that memorial night. You may or may not be given a pass on this. Generally speaking, if you are under the age of 60 [excluding Governing Body member Mark Sanderson who is the youngest and believed to not yet be 50 years old], you most likely will not be considered anointed and may face a JW Judicial Committee to determine your state of mind. If they deem you as unstable, they may let it pass and just put up with you, but in some cases you will be disfellowshipped and expelled from the congregation for not following the lead of the Elder Body.

Most, if not all, Bible translations state that all must partake of the body and blood of the Christ if they want to be saved, and Jesus is the bread of life and it's available to all, not just a select few. But really, it is up to the individual to make that choice for themselves. God doesn't want you to partake as a matter of obligation or without feeling or understanding of the sacrifice Jesus made for all of us. He made that sacrifice so all persons may be saved from inherited sin and everlasting death and destruction. However, the JWs believe that only their anointed membership who are still on this earth, the remnant, are slated for heaven and can partake of the emblems while everyone else is slated for everlasting life on earth and cannot partake of the emblems. However, the Bible really doesn't state this, that there are two groups of "saved" people.

The facts of the Scriptures are really lost on indoctrinated JWs and they will most likely glaze over if you try and point out that all may partake of the emblems of the body and blood of Christ, it is a personal choice.

JWs also believe it is a sin to pass over their passover celebration, ha. So if you decide to not attend one of their bizarre rituals of simply passing the bread and wine to each person in attendance with just about no one partaking, you will be marked for destruction when God kills you at Armageddon. Again, this is not a Bible-based belief. If you decide to go to the JW memorial celebration, you will see a lot of disgruntled people forced to be there, whether it's an unbelieving mate or a "worldly" relative. They are slumped in their seat and forced to touch that glass of wine and plate of unleavened bread and pass it along to the person beside them, down each row, and getting everyone to touch the glass and plate, even babies, so they will all be saved at the time of the end in which we are living.

Some religions do this passover celebration every Sunday so as to get everyone in attendance to be involved and acknowledge the sacrifice of the Christ. Since many people don't regularly attend church or may show up one time to see what's it's about, or maybe are traveling and just don't have knowledge of the original passover meal instituted by Christ, they hold the memorial each Sunday and anyone there can participate if they want to, and partake of the emblems. I don't see the harm in this but the JWs get all upset that the "worldly" religions do this memorial celebration wrong. Well, they are wrong in their belief that only a select few can partake of the emblems.

This year's JW memorial invitation features very bizarre artwork and they even feature a Masonic handshake this year. It seems this religious sect is getting more open about their Masonic roots, and nothing much has changed. Some of the Masonic sects and rituals involve tricking Christians into thinking they follow the Christ when they follow Lucifer. The JWs trick you the same way, their memorial death mass has little to do with Jesus, but a lot to do with hailing their God Jehovah and doing a sales pitch to get people to agree to a home Bible study consisting of studying only JW literature, with the Bible as a symbol only, pushed aside with random, unrelated scriptures cited now and then in their publications.

These images are of the official 2018 JW Memorial Invitation obtained from their official website, JW.org:

This is the Masonic handshake, where you curve and press your thumb into the hand of the other person.

Some people have suggested that the overly-long thumb cupped in the
other man's hand at the angle depicted, is another lewd image placed
there by the Watchtower artists.

Example of a Masonic handshake:

Some people suggest that there are hidden Masonic and lewd symbols and images in Watchtower literature, both past and present. Many examples are available with a quick Google search and may be worth your time to check it out. Here is one strange part of the painting from the JW Memorial Invitation:

Whatever you decide to do on Saturday is your choice. But I would skip the JW death mass where they give Christ a brief mention once a year and then proceed to honor Jehovah and try and guilt-trip you into attending all of their meetings and have you become a fully indoctrinated drone of the organization. Seek your own path in life and you won't go wrong.

Future World

Next week we welcome in the New Year and I hope everyone is doing well and will continue to make plans to have a prosperous life away from the organization of Jehovah's Witnesses (JWs). I think this organization truly has had its day and we are seeing that it is losing its influence in our lifetime.

In December 2014, Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin canceled New Year's celebrations due to a severe economic crisis, something no one would do in corporate America. They celebrate no matter what is going on in the nation. In 2017, we saw the complete ban in Russia of the JW organization with properties seized and supposedly, the Watch Tower corporation didn't see a penny from those properties they owned in that country. Yes, I have heard about wheeling and dealing with transferring deeds of properties to the JW membership and trying to hang onto what they have and hopefully sell off the properties so the Watch Tower leadership can pocket some money from those sales.

Interesting that a few years ago is when President Putin was supposedly secretly dating a very famous model and she was raised as a JW. The story goes is that her mother was a well-known dancer and had many suitors while she was a JW. She had an affair and claims to not know the father of her now-famous daughter, who she tried to raise as a JW. Yes, I think you know who I am talking about, it's the famous model Naomi Campbell, raised as a JW when she got her break in modeling and was introduced to American audiences when she had a guest spot on the Bill Cosby Show as a teenager. However, when Naomi grew up and became very famous I wonder if she acted almost like Mata Hari the dancer who was also a spy during WWI, and maybe had a small influence on the decision of President Putin in regards to the Watch Tower corporation operating freely in his country. Who knows, but we know the JWs in that country are still free to worship their own god Jehovah but they can't formally meet and have their own Watch Tower properties.

Ex-JW Naomi Campbell may have influence in Russia and
also dated the billionaire Vladimir Doronin.

There is much speculation on the Internet as to what may happen with the Watch Tower corporation, will it go on-line only, will it just shut down completely, will it downsize and struggle on for many years to come? No, I don't know and probably taking a guess would just be futile. Please know that the corporation is wealthy beyond our imaginations and it can morph into anything it wants since it has followers who live in fear day and night of a god of destruction that will kill them if they don't continue to go to the meetings, preach door-to-door, hand out JW literature, having no true friends only comrades fighting together in a figurative war against this ungodly system of things while they plod on in their lives never progressing, never changing, always under a self-imposed struggle over God vs Satan. It's all a sad cycle of self-abuse going nowhere.

I hope you continue to follow me on this blog site and hope you take some time to support me here and purchase my book if you feel so inclined. I think you will find it interesting to see how I was raised in the organization and read about a few of my personal battles and perhaps you can identify with my story.

In any case, I wish you much health and happiness in the coming year and hope you can find the courage to walk out of the JW organization and make 2018 your year to think about moving the JW policies out of your life and more of your own policies into your life. Policies that involve developing friendships at work, with your neighbors, and think about solid plans for a future right here and now on this planet. Stop thinking about some future world that may or may not exist. Whenever you stop and think about where you are in life and about planning for the future or thinking about past mistakes, you are right here and now in the present. What can you do right now that will benefit yourself? Knowledge is power, not rights, doctrines, edicts, or policies that you may rehearse and memorize and are terrified to defy. Stop and think about the here and now, and you will eventually find your heart's desire.
