LETTERS THAT HELP PEOPLE SUCH AS FAMILY, FRIENDS, ELDERS EXIT THE WATCHTOWER! Our Christian freedom exit-makers are letters that are proved able to greatly help JW family and friends either to quit the Watchtower Society or at least lighten up about matters such as their shunning.  Sometimes a person who doesn't  leave Watchtower outright nevertheless does so mentally.  This enables the person (and you if you are family or have been a friend) to enjoy life and happiness much better.  You can also mail copies of any exit-makers you want to family, friends, also to the public such as preachers, doctors, nurses, judges, attorneys, police, legislators etc.  Again, these are proved effective for educating people fast!  As with sewing seed, one sewing might or might not be enough, though it can help to send, wait, resend time to time for maximum effect.  Feel free to edit or translate items if you wish. The best approach is to mail letters for if you put such a letter in a JWs hands s/he is usually going to be with at least one other JW and they are under orders and training to later put such a piece of "opposition" literature in the trash.  However at home out of sight they are as curious as anyone else would be and so definitely do read them although Watchtower magazines and platform talks insist that such items are ineffective (hoping no doubt to brain-wash those present into believing that and so never trying). Once a JW is informed s/he is never the exact same afterward.  Most cut down on if not totally end giving their time-money-energy to Watchtower, lighten up on how they treat exJW family members.  Occasionally some family member or friend may get angry but if you wisely didn't tell them you sent the letter/s then s/he can't be sure, can only make wild guesses or try to pretend s/he knows it was you who sent the letter/s.  If s/he says you sent the material or implies you did then you can politely say "Why do you say that?" and repeat it if needed. In the United States no return address is required.  In Canada some kind of return address is required.  You may include as a return address that of some business, etc.  Different lands do things differently.  That these do work is proved by personal experience as well as by what others who have used them have had to say.  So start mailing with confidence.  Put aside any doubts Watchtower tried to implant into your mind to the contrary.  Taking positive, lovingly intended action like this will not only help you feel empowered instead of helpless but could also help you un-program your ownself.  If you are currently a totally non-religious person and uncomfortable with the fact that most (not all) of the Freedom Letters contain scriptures then you need to note that these aren't for you but for them and they definitely do require countering scriptures--it's much like fire needed to fight fire.  Unto all of good-will, the best of wishes.

1. FREELY COPY & USE: STUDIED WITH JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES? (JWs) KNOW ONE? BEEN ONE? If a JW you can count time for answering questions brought up here & you can get help for those you can’t answer from your friends or congregation elders. Elders especially need copies to know what congregations and other elders are learning. The Watchtower Society (WT) over JWs includes good people but WT misteaches them. To start, WT magazine for JW members (Sept 15, 2010, p 23) says "The anointed & their other sheep companions recognize that by following the lead of the modern day Body, they are in fact following their Leader, Christ.” Doesn’t that go against the Bible saying to go by Christ & itself? (Re 14:4, 2Timothy 3:16) Most JWs don’t believe & deny or try hard to ignore it but the Body also teach Christ is the Mediator for only 144,000 yet 1 Timothy 2:5, 6 point-blank says Christ is the mediator for “ALL” men. (WT Feb 15, 1991, p 18 par 11; WT Sept 15, 1989, p 30, 31; WT Apr 1 1979 p31) In 2010 the Body admitted the 1914’s Generation won’t see the End but an overlapping generation will; Christ clearly says no human knows when the End will be! (Mt 24:36)  2. Though WT’s Gov Body men order JW family & friends to shun exJWs harshly don’t scriptures condemn cruel unfair judging as seen at James 2:4, 13; 3:12? Doesn’t Paul say a "Majority" avoided a serious wrongdoer as he suggested (2Cor 2:6) but the word "majority" means a minority did not, proving there was & is freedom to decide who to associate with or not. Did you ever notice that? Paul could "order" Timothy about work but Christians have great freedom to differ. (Ro 14:1-22) Love never fails, (1Co13:8) and LOVE (not forced uniformity) is the only true bond of unity. (Read Col 3:16) As 1 Cor 5:11-13 & 1 Cor 15:33 say, there's natural common sense judging about association but there’s no mandate for Judicial (Judging) Committees to judge so harshly as to drive people to suicide.  The Body put out a JWs-Only WT magazine in 2011 with the article “Jehu Champions Pure Worship” that talks up Jehu’s killing apostates but Christ says love even our enemies. (Mt 5:44)  Christ said he divided families over if some become Christians but never advocated the destruction of families. 3. WT teaches always abstain from blood transfusions but Christ says God wants Mercy not Sacrifice (Mt 12:7); 1 Samuel 14 shows God forgave Saul’s men who ate unBLED meat to stay alive. WT’s Awake! magazine of May 22, 1994 boasts of & shows photos of JW kids who died refusing transfusions. So, from 1945 to now an estimated up 250,000 vulnerable older JWs and even some children have senselessly bled to death.  No wonder they have been sued by upset parents, e.g. www.watchtowerlawsuit.com. If able to see all the corpses, media would be all over the story, legislators put a stop to it!  After negative publicity in Australia over the pedophilia issue HQ put into papers there they published they let Tamera Coakley get artificial blood made of cow’s blood to live but kept it out of papers in the U.S. (google articles) 4. Elders are told now they’ll be deleted as elders if supporting kids through college although WT put Bethelites like Shane Brady through law school. (google for him) Didn’t Judah Ben Schroeder, son of Body member Al Schroeder (deceased) also get a law degree? Wasn’t Luke a doctor, Moses and Joseph well-educated? Weren’t much-loved brothers Carey Barber & John (Jack) Barr of the Body correct before dying to oppose darksider ilk ruining WT’s image and finances? Why the warring of Gov Body and darksider congregation elders against the anointed remnant away from headquarters? Scripture says don’t be a meddling busybody (1Pe 4:15) so spying on & speaking against JWs using Facebook etc is unscriptural.  Stalking and the like to protect pedophiles, harass assumed apostates etc only bring reproach http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/experiences/198595/1/Spiritual-spies  Pedophiles also harass outspoken adults protecting kids, also act as wiretapping peeping Tom fanatics etc.  In 2011 thirty-five criminal charges were established in Latrobe Valley court, Victoria, Australia for violation of the Working With Children Act and documentation filed there regarding a sex club scandal that was on Australia’s Gold Coast.  (http://www.magistratescourt.vic.gov.au/ (At search select “Criminal”)  As this becomes widely known we shall seel Geoffrey Jackson & the rest step down or show their arrogance & apostasy by staying on the Gov Body. 5. Menlo Park, CA, elders Jonathan D. Cobb Sr. and Walter Arlen St. Clair. (google Menlo park kingdom hall) have sued Service desk staffer, Circuit Overseer Paul Koehler & a group of area elders listed with allegations such as fraud to get valuable property from the legal trustees, mobbery (systematic harassment) and assault.  Nearing 2014 the 100th year after 1914 more darkness happens, e.g. London’s Night Stalker, WT staffer pedophile Jesus Manuel Cano etc. (Re 18:4) WT’s 2010-published secret elders manual even guides elders to not delete fellow elders with major sins (=crimes) Google summaries and critiques of it. Service Dept has Elders send all JWs deemed “in good standing” preaching at doors including so-called “repentant” ones. Most kingdom halls have at least one pedophile they hide & shelter but doesn’t Christ says protect Little Ones over any who would hurt them!? (Lu 17:2) There are good WT Elders but also sociopaths & pedophiles into peeping Tommery, wiretapping bedrooms, assaults, fraud, stalking & group harassment http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/experiences/198595/1/Spiritual-spies. (lovenorris.com law firm) WT has paid millions to settle out of court & the glare of news cameras with victims of pedophile elders including at Napa Valley, CA, in 2007. They must also settle big with sisters angry at gropers etc. As Joel Adams why Service Dept’s Merton Campbell is allowed to keep & move about pedophiles. 6. WT heads say revelations by silentlambs.org, Dateline NBC, BBC etc are Satanic lies but your own eyes know they have kept demanding more & more money, in the U.S. put skyscrapers up for sale, are installing credit-debit card donation machines in assembly halls. Didn’t Christ opposed moneychangers in the Temple?  Why do they stress money if not to pay for molestation of kids, groped sisters, and high class GB perks?  The average Bethelite just gets toothpaste money. 7. WT heads for 10 years were secretly affiliated as a UN NGO before quitting & then when exposed lied they had the NGO liaison just to get a library card to research (false); this second still secretly have other WT corporations & individuals acting on their behalf in Europe as UN NGOs. If  it’s really so ok to use NGOs to protect WT kind of like Paul asking Caesar’s help, then why do they hide these ties from regular JWs, disfellowship JWs supposed “compromising with the world” by using WMCA services? Because it’s hypocrisy.  Matthew 24 also speaks of an unfaithful slave who proves to be a hypocrite.  The perfect bond of Unity is not from blind obedience & a worshipful attitude to WT’s Governing Body men but from Christian LOVE including freedom to differ some. (Do read Col 3:14, 1Co 13:8, 13, Ro 14:1-22) WT’s hypocrisy has caused many, especially young JWs to quit all religion even be militant atheists.  Whatever your own belief preferences, those still wanting fellowship without WT can set up free phone conferences at http://freephoneconference.com/  Use anywho.com to phone others in kingdom halls all over the U.S., use similar services in the U.K., Canada, Australia, Brazil, Mexico etc; To get WT’s own views etc phone now:  845 306-1000 or 1-718-560-5000.

1. KNOW A JEHOVAH’S WITNESS? ARE YOU ONE OR STUDYING?: Increasingly more older JWs see the Watchtower Society (WT) over them as it is but stick with it only to keep from losing family ties; however most young JWs are quitting not wanting their whole lives ruined by men in Brooklyn opposed to normal clean fun, higher education, etc. WT is so money hungry in Sept 2010 two Menlo Park, CA, elders filed a lawsuit against Circuit Overseer Paul Koehler, a Service Dept desk elder with correspondence initials SDG, other elders working with the C.O., detailing allegations of fraud, mobbing (systematic harassment), WT’s C.O. even pushing down one of the elders. See the public papers at http://ex-jw.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Lawsuit-CV10-3907.pdf The plaintiff elders are legal trustees of the hall under the old arrangement; contend SDG and the others wanted them out to get full control. One estimate is the hall property in good economic times may be worth up to 2 million dollars. 2, Napa Valley, California, court records have shown WT got complaints elder/Red Bluff, California, City Overseer James Henderson committed sex crimes 1963-93 but Merton Campbell of the Service Department's California desk kept reappointing him!!! Henderson was at congregations at Clearlake Highland, Ukiah, Upper Lake, Red Bluff. See http://www.watchtowerdocuments.com/secrets.html) Such things go on under mask of religion from NYC to Chicago, KC, L.A., worldwide!  Pat Garza (deceased) alleged WT Gov Body member Ted Jaracz (deceased) of the Service Dept had molested her and others while they were children when he was District Overseer in L.A. Victims of the many pedophiles sheltered by WT in the U.S. have gotten millions to quietly sign settlements. (lovenorris.com law firm, silentlambs.org nonprofit, A.P. news 2007) Crimes by unbalanced ones have grown nearing 2014, 100 years after 1914: London’s Nightstalker, Jesus Manuel Cano (WT staffer), Phillip and Nancy Garridos etc. To save money WT has sent many Bethelites back home and will send more. January 2002-05 WT downsized by 1,000 members worldwide, the downsizing to be about 20% of staff, including all 3 main US locations in the US since Brooklyn printing has been cut to just 30% of what it was. WT plans to reassign COs back to local halls possibly as soon as 2011. 3. In 2008-2010 WT was working fast toward moving out of Brooklyn, shed branch facilities in Central America, Austria, Czech Republic etc for selling later, has been remodeling and selling some halls, sold some skyscrapers etc. Donations to WT from concerned decent JWs were said down 40%. Halls are remodeled to increase value for later resell plus get more interest money. WT insists on more money, since the 2008 market crash has been investing in gold, was listed as meeting for hedge fund investing! In 2010 U.S. tax authorities were examining WT and there was an investigation re David Lynn Carter of Virginia, alleged murdered by poisoning from a fleshly sister guided by 2 local elders if not someone beyond those after reporting sexual abuse by the elders. WT has had Elders keep sending all JWs deemed “in good standing” to preach at doors, thus including those the elders or WT’s Service Dept deem “repentant” pedophiles. 4. WT sent a March 14, 1997 letter or directive to Bodies of Elders saying “It may be possible that some who were guilty of child molestation were or are now serving as elders, ministerial servants, or regular or special pioneers. Others may have been guilty of child molestation before they were baptized. The bodies of elders should not query individuals.” WT also orders elders to not believe what a child victim says against a molester unless there are two witnesses who saw him molest the child. In 2000 WT had 23720 molesters in its database for the U.S. alone but elders are ordered to shelter them. (3 concerned internal WT staff) When elder Bill Bowen went to media about it WT disfellowshipped him, called him a liar and told JWs the media lied and are tools of Satan. Parents and victims are told to shut up or else be disfellowshipped for slandering the pedophiles and just “Wait On Jehovah. 5. Most congregations already have at least one pedophile whom WT’s Service Dept has Elders keep hiding and sheltering largely out of concern for WT's image as "Jehovah's" organization on earth." There are good though misled WT Elders but WT headquarters on down also has some entrenched who are pedophiles, peeping Toms, stalkers, mobbers, wiretappers of bedrooms, thieves etc. Bethel phones and computers are monitored, people avoid candid talk even while walking through the tunnel complex, there are two-wheelers to quickly get suitcases etc away if “Gog of Magog” comes to seize Bethel. A letter to Bodies Of Elders in 2010 stated JWs can now be labeled as “brazen” so if they don’t do whatever told, act fast enough for elders etc can be more quickly and easily disfellowshipped, more easily smeared by the word. Forum postings have given details of fanatical local Elders and their helpers systematically spying on, stalking, harassing dissenters, exJWs, letting the participating congregation members count time for it! For an example: http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/experiences/198595/1/Spiritual-spies  People are starting to ask might some or all of this stuff may go right back up the ladder into the Service Department staff?  When Jaracs lived the Gov Body was paranoid about moles in U.K. and the E.U.  Will Gerritt Losch and David Splane and Co. add to what is already darkness, blind leading the blind? 6. Active JWs not leaving WT out of concern to keep family ties can cut donations of time and energy to WT even more, mail copies of this to inform other JWs more.  This also thanks those who have already cut WT donations according to an expert by financial 40%, and reminds that instead it's possible to donate to help two good causes.  One is Silentlambs (silentlambs.org) that helps expose pedophiles harming JW kids and grandkids.  The other is Lawrence Hughes' battle against WT and its attorneys in court and out to protect JWs including kids who have bled to death following WT's doctrine even against use of emergency whole blood transfusions.  Facebook.com is handy for meeting, reuniting. Much of this newsletter’s information has been on jehovahs-witness.net and other forums. Please e/mail copies of this. More at christianwitnesses.com with the Freed Witnesses movement

1. In the Sept 15, 2010 Watchtower magazine the Watchtower Society (WT) over Jehovah’s Witnesses tells JWs to get busy working not socializing.  Might the strident tone somehow be a sign they are being pursued by U.S. tax authorites, desperate to pay money?  WT protested taxes to France, (July 1, 1998 letter in NY Times), supported Jimmy Swaggart Ministries effort to dodge taxes. (Oct 1988 friendship brief; filers James M. McCabe, Donald T. Ridley, No. 88-1374) That lost; it stopped asking money for literature but did it act fast and clearly enough to satisfy IRS? It keeps selling buildings in Brooklyn, sends Bethelites home, has weird changes re the 1914 Generation, has European branch corporations keep working with the UN, cuts branches in Central America, some in Europe; but to please hardliners flip-flops on education, marital sex etc. Tax-dodging efforts show its Governing Body are not God’s MOST Faithful and Discreet Slave, more like embarrassed and embarrassing corporate heads. Active JWs need to ignore any Waco/Jonestown style orders they might issue.  2. WT teaches the Good News is “many now living will never die and will live forever on paradise earth” but Paul says we all sin and therefore we will all die. (1Cor 15:22)  So the Good News is instead the resurrection hope given to us due to Christ's ransom sacrifice.  Watchtower teaches a cross is a horrible murder weapon but Paul says BOAST of the cross for in Christ’s case it symbolizes resurrection victory over death. (Ga 6:14, 1Co 1:17-18) Christians began using rabbits and eggs as symbols of new life resurrection at Easter time not as WT says as vestiges of pagan sex worship!  WT says a Little Flock of literally 144,000 go to heaven but Rev 19:1 says a “great crowd” is in heaven. Barely any JWs partake of wine and bread emblems but Christ says Christians must. (Jn 6:54) Some experts say the word Easter may be from Eastern not the goddess Eastre as Christianity came from Eastern parts. 3. WT heads order JW family and friends to rigidly shun exJWs but scriptures condemn such unmerciful, all too often unfair judging. (Jas 2:4, 13; 3:12) Paul says a "Majority" avoided a serious wrongdoer as he suggested (2Cor 2:6) but the word "majority" means a minority did not, proving each has freedom to decide who to associate with or not. Paul could "order" Timothy re work but Christians keep freedom to differ. Love never fails. (1Co13:8) True unity is from love not forced same beliefs on non-essentials. (Col 3:14, 1Co13:8,13) The One Faith (Eph4:5) is Christianity with good, average, bad branches. Good Christianity has more freedom, fewer rules. (Ro 14)  Joy is a fruit of Holy Spirit. (Ga5:22) 4. Christ says God wants Mercy not Sacrifice. (Mt 12:7) 1 Samuel 14 shows God forgave Saul’s men who ate unBLED meat to stay alive.  But Watchtower’s Awake! magazine (May 22, 1994) boasts of and has photos of JW kids who died refusing transfusions. See on ajwrb.org.  JWs are taught to teach others to call God “Jehovah” but Christ and Paul say call God “our Father,” not Jehovah. (Mt 6:9, Mr 14:36, Ro 8:15, Ga 4:6) Calling on God’s name to be saved (Ro 10:13) isn’t pronouncing a guessed at formal name but calling on God as a powerful, caring Father.   5. WT teaches earth will remain forever (Ec 1:4) but ignores verses saying after earth passes away a new earth will come. Read Mt 24:35; Lu 21:33, Re 21:1. So the Bible says earth passes away but will be re-created!   WT says "the dead are conscious of nothing at all." (Ec 9:5) but also teaches the dead will either be resurrected as a reward on earth or to heaven, the wicked getting to sleep forever. But God is just so evildoers will be punished fairly, not just sleep. Souls are spirits that are or were combined with a body.  WT says souls don’t survive death, ignoring although dead bodies are unconscious, scriptures speak of human spirits as angels in heaven.    6. Watchtower Elders send all JWs deemed “in good standing” to preach at doors which includes those the elders deem “repentant” pedophiles, and it is estimated that most JW congregations have at least one such pedophile whom Elders hide or shelter but Christ says to put the protection of our Little Ones over any who would hurt them. Read Luke 17:2!  Victims have received millions of dollars in settlements. (silentlambs.org, lovenorris.com) WT’s pedophile policies bring allegations of stalking, bedroom wiretapping, suspicious murders such as in Oregon.   7. WT says oppose celebrating holidays but Paul says don't let others judge us as Christians or not regarding holidays. (Col 2:16)  Job’s kids celebrated birthdays.  Read Job 1:3 then Job 3:1,3. Angels, wise men and shepherds celebrated Christ’s. God gave Israel a harvest festival of thanks (Lev 23:33, Deu 16:13); many nations like Germany and Canada have Thanksgivings.  Leviticus 23 shows God approved New Year celebrations for Israel. JWs claim most all churches teach the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are the one same God or person. Instead most teach the 3 are different persons but one in divine nature, meaning absolute holiness.  Being equally holy they are called deity or God just as Titus 2:13 says, but the Father is greatest. (Jn 14:28)  We are trying to help JWs including friends and family. Please share copies now.

1. For Jehovah’s Witnesses and others, as caring Christians we wish to reason on matters in a respectful, loving fashion.  For example the Watchtower Society of JWs has JWs teach as Good News that "many now living will never die and live forever on paradise earth” but at 1 Corinthians 15:22, Paul says that we all sin and therefore we will all die.  The Good News is we have the resurrection hope thanks to Christ's ransom sacrifice.  So, which is correct: A. the Bible saying we all die, or B. Watchtower saying many will never die?    2. The idea of living on a paradise sounds great, but isn't living with Christ in the beautiful starry heavens where he says the Father has “many mansions” (Jn 14:2) more appealing?  Eyes of a fleshly human cannot see all the wondrous things that a human resurrected as a spirit in heaven can see.  (1Cor 2:9)  Ecclesiastes 1:4 says “the earth will remain forever,” which Watchtower emphasizes, but Matthew 24:35; Luke 21:33, and Revelation 21:1 counter-balance by saying earth will pass away but a new earth will come. So in the long run earth remains forever as it passes away but is re-created.   3. Watchtower teaches JWs to teach people that only a “Little Flock” literally numbered 144,000 go to heaven, but read Revelation 19:1 which says the “great crowd” is in heaven. Watchtower stresses that Ecclesiastes 9:5 says "the dead are conscious of nothing at all," and Watchtower says all who die are either resurrected as a reward on earth or to heaven, but the wicked just keep sleeping peacefully forever. God is just, so contrary to what Watchtower mis-states there will be some kind of punishment, not just letting the wicked sleep. 4. Yes, dead bodies are conscious of nothing, but since human spirits become as angels in heaven (remember the 144,000 humans going to heaven), spirits or souls (spirits once with a body) do survive death of the body. Watchtower calls survival of souls (spirits come from bodies) a teaching from pagans like the Greeks but in fact it’s also a Bible-based teaching. Read and reflect upon 1 Corinthians 15. 5. Watchtower misteaches that the trinity belief is that there are three persons who are the same God, but instead the belief teaches that there are three persons who are different but who form what Romans 1:20 calls “godship” in the New World Translation. Most other Bibles translate the word as “divine essence” or “godhead.” The trinity teaching says the Father is relatively greatest. Very few churches teach the Father morphs (changes) into Christ, a teaching called modalism, not trinitarianism. Watchtower’s own New World Translation at Titus 2:13 says our God and Savior is Christ Jesus meaning he's absolutely holy and so equal to God on that account, but speaking relative to the Father, the Father is greatest. 6. The Watchtower (WT) (Jan 1, 1954; p 31) said don’t worship Christ as God,and WT's then new New World Translation changed the word translated as "worship" instead to "obeisance."  The 1945 Yearbook gave Watchtower Society's legal Charter which said one purpose for the Society was the "public Christian worship of Almighty God and Christ Jesus."  WT's Nathan Knorr had said in the WT (Oct 15, 1945; p 313) whosoever worships God must “worship and bow” to “Christ Jesus."  WT's Joseph Rutherford in WT (Nov 15, 1939; p. 339) said Jehovah “commands all to worship Christ Jesus” who is “the express image of his Father, Jehovah, and because he is the Executive Officer of Jehovah always carrying out Jehovah's purpose (Heb. 3-6)."  WT's Charles Taze Russell in Zion's Watch Tower (July 15, 1898; p 216) wrote: "Yes, we believe our Lord Jesus while on earth was really worshiped." 7. As you know JWs are allowed to use wedding bands, money, names of days of the weeks, all from pagans, but Watchtower says don’t celebrate Christ’s birth, Christmas, although angels and shepherds did. Job’s kids also celebrated birthdays. (Proof: read Job 1:3 then Job 3:1, 3) God had a harvest festival for Israel like Thanksgiving. (Proof: Lev 23:33, Deu 16:13) Germany, Canada, many lands have one. Leviticus 23 tells of celebrating New Years. Easter eggs and rabbits began and stay as symbols of new life by resurrection, never were, as Watchtower say, part of sex rites for Christians. 8. Watchtower teaches a cross is a horrible murder weapon you need to shun, but Paul says BOAST of the cross for in Christ’s case it symbolizes resurrection victory over death. (Ga 6:14, 1 Cor 1:17-18) The word "stauros" in the original Greek language in the New Testament can mean either cross or stake, but never just mean stake. First century pictures including on ossuaries show crosses not stakes. Forensic research by Dr. F. Zugibe has proved suffocation would be in “minutes” if Christ died on a stake but in “hours” if with arms outstretched on a cross even as Luke 23:44 and Matthew 27:45-46 say it was. The cross is not a mark of “false” Christians as Watchtower says, but of true Christians. 9. Watchtower points to its Governing Body men as if “the Faithful and Discreet Slave” put over all true Christians and what they have, but the MOST faithful and discreet slave ever of God is Christ himself! Paul says there’s “one faith” at Ephesians 4:5, and the one faith then and now is general Christianity which has branches that are good, average and bad. Watchtower has wrongly mispredicted and hinted at Armageddon for the Generation alive in 1914, the same for 1975 etc even though Christ says only the Father knows the hour of the end. (Read Matthew 24:36) 2014 is almost here, the 100th anniversary of 1914! 10. JWs are told if everyone in a group doesn’t believe the same thing, it’s a lack of unity, but Colossians 3:14 says the one true bond of unity is Love, not robotic same beliefs on everything. Christ says he is gentle and his yoke is light (Mt 11:30), but JWs well know being a JW is actually a very heavy, rough yoke. Read Romans 14 and John 8:32 thoughtfully about the great freedom that Christians are supposed to enjoy. 11. At Luke 17:2 Christ says put the protection of our Little Ones over any man who would abuse them. As JWs know Watchtower has all JWs deemed “in good standing” (and all includes so-called “repentant” pedophiles) to preach at doors, thus putting them around kids of JWs and the public! When JW elders or others molest kids, the kids’ parents have been told to “wait on Jehovah” (code for shut up) to protect the Watchtower organization, but Roman 13:1 says to obey the government officials who say to turn pedophiles in. 12. The Bible shows conversions took place quickly, no long “Bible study” needed.  Please contrast Watchtower’s door-after-door method with how Christ at Luke 10:1-7 told early Christians to go from a house in one location or city to a house in another, to not go "transferring," the very word used in Watchtower’s New World Translation. 13. As the New World Translation also shows at 1 Samuel 14:31-35, God forgave Saul’s men who ate unBLED meat to stay alive, yet Watchtower orders that JWs and their kids not even take an emergency blood transfusion to stay alive. At Matthew 12:7 Christ says God wants Mercy over Sacrifice.  Since 1945 an estimated 200,000 JWs have bled to death senselessly; even one senseless death like this is an apostacy against the will of God.  Watchtower calls those who point these things out "apostates," has them harshly shunned, and keeps telling people to die senselessly. 14. Christ and Paul at Matthew 6:9, Mark 14:36, Romans 8:15, and Galatians 4:6 say to call God “our Father,” not just formal names like Jehovah or Yahweh. Think about this: if you were Mark or Suzie Jones would you call your father Charles Jones, Charles Jones, Mr. Jones, or simply lovingly say dad, daddy, father? Calling on God's name to be saved (Ro 10:13) does not mean pronouncing a guessed at formal name, but it means calling on God as a powerful, caring Father in heaven to save us. 15. John 8:32 says the real truth sets us free so isn’t it contrary to Christian freedom when Elders enforce bedroom rules on intimacies between married couples?  JWs who go by all the many guilt-trip rules can never feel truly “free,” and it has a major effect on their lives and families.  2 Timothy 3:16-17 says the scriptures themselves teach and guide Christians, not a human organization headed by busybody men who go beyond the scriptures. 16. Watchtower is a corporate business operating as a religious organization that puts its own existence over the happiness and safety of rank-and-file members. Christ says he himself is the Truth, Way and Life at John 6:68 and 14:6.  Do you really think Watchtower gives you the real Truth, actual Life or a Way of lasting happiness? No, and the sheep know the real Master’s bell. 17. When people leave Watchtower it orders JW family and friends to shun them harshly, rigidly, but Christ promises those who do will get new and truer friends. (Mt 5:11) Although at 2 Corinthians 2:6 Paul says a "Majority" had cut ties with a serious wrong-doer as he had suggested, the word "majority" means a minority did not do as he had suggested, so it proves they had the Christian freedom to decide who to associate with or not. Paul could "order" Timothy in their relief work, but in Christian matters all sincere Bible-trained Christians then and now have freedom to differ some, not have to be robots.   18. Watchtower says JWs must use it itself as the “sole channel of truth;” but Christians say the only true “channel of truth” is Jesus Christ.  Watchtower says it is the sole organization representing God on earth.  In fact “God’s organization” is in heaven ruling over true Christians on earth.  Watchtower misclaims the right to usurp the power of God’s true and perfect organization.  19. Did you know Watchtower disfellowshipped three branch elders and a ministerial servant in late 2009 for saying what the Bible itself says at 1 Timothy 2:5: ”For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.”   Watchtower’s view is that Christ is not the mediator for “all” people or all Jehovah’s Witnesses, but only for anointed JWs, particularly those on Watchtower’s Governing Body in Brooklyn.  They also believe the Bible was directly written for the anointed not all JWs.  Every congregation has JWs who differ with Watchtower about these things, and if anyone doubts it just clearly ask each adult JW if Christ is the mediator for them too or just the 144,000 anointed.  19. It’s important to get out of such a high control group mentally, emotionally -- and, prayerfully, also as soon as possible totally! (Re 18:4) You may start fading out slowly now or handle it however you know is best for your own situation. If you have to stay in a while you can use the time to get lots of new names and addresses to mail copies of this to. 20. The real anointed brothers and sisters of Christ believe in Christian freedom and ask you to help more starting this second. The lives and happiness of the littlest JW kids, the elderly, and others are endangered by the Governing Body misleadership destroying Watchtower. They have squandered members' donations, sending Bethelites of 20 to 40 years away across the U.S., Europe, Latin America and Japan. This does not show they are either wise or faithful, does it. 21. Even if you feel you must attend Watchtower at least once in a while for the sake of family ties, remember you don't have to donate to it so much of your time, money and energy. If you outright totally quit Watchtower, for example, you may find a satisfactory alternative church as many exJWs have done or else start your own in-the-home house-church as the earliest Christians had (example Ro 16:1), which Ray Franz and many other exJWs also speak of highly. 22. Christ says where even 2 or 3 Christians are, he is too. (Mt 18:20) Such groups enjoy UNITY by the strongest bond which is love and freedom to differ. (Col 3:14) It's as easy as agreeing to allow others freedom to differ. (Romans 14)  Use the Bible instead of Watchtower magazines. It's also easy to form new groups if you want. Hebrews 6:1 gives what it says are the essential beliefs for Christians. Just stay focused on showing genuine Christian love, especially hands-on loving-kindness and Christian freedom to differ. 23. Please freely make and share copies of this. Feel free to translate it into other languages too. Watchtower has told people other JWs won't read it, but that's false, most do read it so long as it comes in the mail or by email. Human nature is curious; told not to read something often makes even more people want to read it. 24. If you still don't think this works, then mail a whole bunch then sit back and watch what happens. For some change will be slow, for others faster. Knowledge is power but now you have what it takes to fight fire with fire, that is scriptures with scriptures. This is here ready to be copied and sent now. The real truth sets you free and it will set others free! (Jn 8:32)

DEAR JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES: Thanks. Although you didn’t convert me I appreciate your explaining your beliefs & now ask you to read this to understand why I & other Christians have own different beliefs. For example you teach “many now living will never die but live forever in paradise earth” & that sounds wonderful but Paul says we all sin so we all die (1Cor 15:22) plus heaven is even more awesome. You teach Ecclesiastes 1:4 says “earth remains forever,” (Ec 1:4) but ignore Mt 24:35; Lu 21:33, Re 21:1 say earth will pass away then a new earth will come. Most Christians like myself believe Earth ends but will be re-created, in that way staying forever. See? Revelation 19:1 says the “great crowd” are “IN HEAVEN” but your leaders teach only a “Little Flock” literally numbered 144,000 go to heaven & the great crowd is ON EARTH. Don’t the scriptures say the Good News of the kingdom centers on the resurrection not living forever on earth? (Jn 3:15 etc) Christ says in heaven are “many mansions;” (Jn 14:2) & Paul calls heaven’s wonders unimaginable. (1 Cor 2:9) Picture resurrection as a spirit passing among zillions of sparkly stars and incredible while feeling great to draw closer to our Father in heaven. That’s what I & others look forward to. (1 Cor 15) You don’t have to agree but it’s only fair you see WHY we believe as we do.   2. The biggest difference is surely that YOU THINK we believe the Father, Son & Holy Spirit are one person, a 3-headed God. Actually most of us don’t believe anything so weird & not taught in the Bible or original trinity statement. What I & most other Christians do believe is there are 3 DIFFERENT persons one in “homoiousios” translated substance or divine nature.  That divine nature is that they are holy.  To be holy is to be divine. I looked in your own New World Translation & saw Romans 1:20 uses the word “godship;” other translations use “godhead,” “divine essence” or “divinity.” The trinity statement says God Almighty the Father is greatest in His relatively superior position but the three are equal in divineness. Especially look at Titus 2:13 in several translations. A few churches teach God changes to & from Christ & Holy Spirit but that’s not the trinity teaching. 3. Ecclesiastes 9:5 says "the dead are conscious of nothing at all," so you teach that all who die including the wicked sleep peacefully forever. Well, dead bodies are what are conscious of nothing. You’re told at least 144,000 human spirits go to heaven, so human spirits do survive death of the body & can go to heaven, meaning it’s definitely in the Bible that they survive, not just something pagans wrote which is what you’re wrongly told to teach us. Compare body to matter & spirit to energy. A soul is a spirit that was or still is in a body. If God just let the wicked sleep forever, He would be unloving to not provide justice for victims. So there is some kind of punishment or disciplining for those unforgiving, unrepentant & cruelly harming others. Some of us believe it’s literal fire for at least a while, others that it’s isolation away from God, etc. The Bible says true UNITY is by LOVE not having to express the same views on all things like robots which is UNIFORMITY not true UNITY.  God alone is the perfect Judge, & He will not just let vicious evildoers get to sleep peacefully forever even though you are taught and teach that.           4. Your New World translation says “do not be transferring from house to house” at Luke 10:1-7.  Read it to see it does. This & other scriptures show Christ & the disciples went from a house in one town to a house in a different town. The Bible also shows conversions did not take place after studying months or a year. Remember the jailer, Cornelius, the Ethiopian, & thousands in Jerusalem all became Christians quickly. As to getting the Good News preached these past 2,000 years, who has been doing so?  Was it only your group that only began in the late 1800s or by general Christianity?  You may think Catholics, Baptists etc aren’t active witnessing but though it’s less in nations where Christianity is already well-known Christian missionaries are indeed still highly active. Christ tells us how to address God, namely “our Father in heaven.” Paul says use “Abba” meaning Papa or Dad. (Ro 8:15, Ga 4:6) You use the formal name “Jehovah” invented in the Middle Ages instead of the respectful title Lord or the name Yahweh most scholars think was the right pronunciation. Use whatever you will but know when scripture says call on God’s name, it means ask help as if when you are a child who is crying out for help from a powerful Father.           5. You guys use wedding rings, money, names of the days of the weeks etc just like the rest of us. Those are all from pagans, yet you say don’t observe holidays as you think they’re from pagans. You say don’t celebrate Christ’s birthday but the angels & shepherds did. You are told Santa Claus is based on some ancient god but Saint Nicolas was an actual Christian famed for giving to the poor. When you read your own translation at Job 1:3 & Job 3:1, 3 you can see the days Job’s children celebrated were days of birth. Birthdays give joy (Ga 5:22), celebrate that God gave us life. You are taught eggs & bunnies are vestiges of pagan sex rites but they began & continue as symbols of new life, that is the resurrection hope Christ gives. You say the name Easter is from Eastre a goddess but some dictionaries say it’s from Eastern as Christianity came from the East, that is the Middle East. The Greek word “stauros” can mean cross or stake but never only stake. Paul says BOAST of the cross as a resurrection symbol. (Ga 6:14, 1 Cor 1:17-18) He never said shun it like a murder weapon! Paul at Colossians 2:16 says permits freedom of conscience about special days, holidays or Sabbaths. Even Halloween started as “All Hallows (Holy Ones/Saints) Evening,” when kids were dressed like faithful tortured, martyred holy ones or saints to encourage them to be similar.  6. Your September 15, 2010, Watchtower magazine on page 23 (the version for JWs only not the one for only the Public) says “by following the lead of the modern-day Governing Body” Jehovah’s Witnesses are in fact following Christ.”  Go back & re-read it.  Do you yourself really agree with that? True Christians follow Christ not men in between God & themselves. Since your top men insist they are “the Faithful & Discreet Slave” over all true Christians, isn’t Christ himself still THE VERY MOST faithful & discreet slave of God even above those men! When Paul wrote there’s only “one faith” at Ephesians 4:5 he didn’t mean your then non-existing group but general Christianity which has branches that are good, average & bad.  Surely you can see that. Your heads keep insisting Christ is only Mediator for 144,000; see it in Watchtower magazines of 2-15-1991, 9-15-1989 & 4-1-1979 but Christ is Mediator for ALL as 1 Timothy 2:5 says.           7. In 2010 you had to stop saying some JWs in the 1914 Generation will see the End.  Instead you must teach an overlapping Generation seeing some who lived in 1914 will see the End. Similarly until 2009 your heads insisted all who go to heaven were sealed in 1935. JW elders are told to stress for you guys to not use wine & bread at your Memorial (Last Supper communion) but Christ at John 6:53 clearly says ALL must do so who want life. A youtube.com video shows your then President steering a stadium of JWs to believe 1975 would bring Armageddon.                    8. Colossians 3:14 says the only true bond of unity is Love. It’s not UNITY but UNIFORMITY your heads impose on you when they claim every Christian must believe exactly the same. Christ says his yoke is gentle & light, but being a JW can be tiring, boring & depressing. The closer 2014 comes (1914+100) the more news showing those who are unbalanced among JWs doing zany things. Most young people are quitting JWs & you’re ordered to disfellowship not just stop associating with but CRUELLY shun them for leaving your group.  JW adult kids are told to shun parents who left but God says honor your mother & father. JW kids are told to not say pledges but photo passports show Watchtower Presidents have always signed pledges of allegiance on those in order to travel. Your heads teach you to view flags as idols, yet  Psalm 20:5, Song of Solomon 2:4, 6:4, 10 all speak well of flags & except in rare cases as with the Nazis they can be & are treated with deep respect but not used for worship as if gods! God says governments are for good order (Ro 13:1) & your top heads in Brooklyn vote every Wednesday morning, but yet you’re pressured & denied the right to vote for better governments.           9.Christ himself says protect Little Ones, that any man abusing them would be better off cast into the sea. (Lu 17:2) Likely in most every JW congregation is at least one pedophile yet your heads order elders to not tell JW women, children who these dangerous wolfish men are. They keep sending so-called “repentant” pedophiles to preach at doors & even study with kids. The 2010 elders manual exempts Bodies Of Elders from having to delete older elders who waited years to confess they molested kids or are of like ilk. (Chapter 3, Verse 19) Upset parents are told unless 2 witnesses saw their child molested to wait quietly for Jehovah or be disfellowshipped. It’s natural & in the Bible for Christians to warn other Christians to not associate with someone who hurts them but no scriptures say to apply shunning so cruelly it tears apart families & sometimes causes people to suicide. The old saying is hate the sin not the sinner. Some have weaknesses for smoking, looking at the other sex, etc but that’s not nearly like those who molest kids! Christ said he’d divide families as they are divided into those following him in doing good things & those doing bad. He never said destroy families!             10. 1 Samuel 14:31-35 shows God forgave Saul’s men who ate unBLED meat to stay alive, & Christ (Mt 12:7) says God wants Mercy not Sacrifice. Your heads permit many blood factions, since 2004 even hemoglobin, but to make it look like they are staying tough on blood, refuse to tell even your Hospital Liaison Committee members they also permit “cryosupernatant,” so that JWs including kids keep dying needlessly! Only if a doctor mentions it to a patient who calls your heads in New York do they confirm approval. In some lands there is no access to hospitals let alone ultra-expensive “gold standard” bloodless surgery that doesn’t work anywhere when people are rapidly bleeding to death. The May 22, 1994 Awake! magazine has photos of kids your heads boast died refusing transfusions. 11. Since Galatians 5:22 says joy is a fruit of Holy Spirit, is your joy increasing?  If you were not born a JW but became one can you still remember the joy you used to have?  John 8:32 says truth sets people free, & in Christ people are safe & happy. You must inform people for them to know the truth. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 says scriptures themselves teach & correct us. Christ calls himself the Way, Truth & Life. (Jn 6:68,14:6) Sheep know the master’s bell. Where to go?  From Watchtower to Christ. For fellowship find a group where you feel safe and comfortable. 12. Thanks for letting me explain these differences for better mutual understanding. We feel most of you are decent people just now realizing you & your best elders were misled about 1914 etc & many of you are becoming rightly shocked to discover the happiness of your families is at stake due to the misteaching.  Human heads fail us but our heavenly Father does not. Love never fails!.. Feel free to e/mail copies of this for othersas it can help save & improve lives.

DEAR PUBLIC, DID YOU KNOW THIS ABOUT THE WATCHTOWER SOCIETY OVER JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES?  SHARE COPIES. 1. Watchtower teaches that when Armageddon ends the world, a great crowd of Jehovah’s Witnesses will survive but all non-JWs will be destroyed, yet JWs are urged to warmly, lovingly greet and befriend those visiting kingdom halls and who study to become JWs. 2. Newcomers and studied are not told things such as Watchtower has mispredicted dates for when the world would end, thus disrupting many lives.  One of the many false dates for the end was 1975 and one for a “marked” date was 1914. 3. Watchtower has told Jehovah’s Witnesses to die and have their children die rather than take emergency blood transfusions; many have and many still do.  See ajwrb.org. 4. Those who grow up as Jehovah's Witnesses are not permitted holiday celebrations, not allowed to participate in organized team sports or extra-curricular school activities, pressured to not work toward college degrees etc.  Most young JWs are quitting so as not to have all the rest of their lives wasted. 5. JWs such as youths who engage in petting or fondling, other sex outside marriage, those who lapse into smoking etc are severely rigidly shunned, a practice called being “disfellowshipped” or, in the case of those not yet baptized, “put on public reproof.” 6. Watchtower has policies that shelter pedophiles, especially those in positions as Elders; and they have intimidated victims from speaking out.  See silentlambs.org.   7. Watchtower Society tells members that news critical of the Watchtower Society is from Satan the Devil even when the sources are highly reputable TV news, newspapers etc.  They will throw away things put in their hands but, happily, if you mail them a copy (such as what you are reading), most will quietly read it anyway, and for many it begins an exiting process.   8. Watchtower has tried to not pay its back taxes with penalties to France.  In the United States it supported Jimmy Swaggart Ministries bid to not pay taxes on literature sales until the U.S. Supreme Court defeated JSM.    9. One theory is that Watchtower may have been put into receivership to U.S. federal authorities over taxes, acting “quietly” in order to discourage Waco style suicides, especially in view of all the 2008-2010 sales of much of Watchtower’s real estate (some skyscrapers, farm, more halls etc).   10. Watchtower elders have sometimes done stalking including stalking by group, invaded privacy by secret videotaping; there are growing allegations about wiretapping, etc.  Crimes by JWs have been soared during 2000-2010; just surf the internet to see it.   11. Watchtower’s Governing Body is dictatorial.  Women are treated as second class members, sometimes battered and abused, told to stay quiet to not bring “Jehovah’s” image into disrepute.   12. Watchtower in 2010 began telling Circuit Overseers to tell regular JWs they must obey orders from Watchtower even if they seem “weird” or something they know can be disproved from scriptures.... Clearly JWs need to not obey weird or potentially dangerous orders from Watchtower!  Please share copies of this.

JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES teach the Good News is “many now living will never die and will live forever on paradise earth” but Paul says we all sin and therefore we will all die. (1Cor 15:22)  The Good News is the resurrection hope from Christ’s ransom sacrifice... JWs teach a cross is a horrible murder weapon you need to shun.  Paul says BOAST of the cross and that is because in Christ’s case it symbolizes the resurrection victory over death. (Ga 6:14, 1Co 1:17-18) Christians began using rabbits and eggs as symbols of new life resurrection at Easter time not as vestiges of sex worship!  JWs teach that a Little Flock literally numbered 144,000 go to heaven but Revelation 19:1 says a “great crowd” is in heaven.  Barely any JWs partake of wine and bread emblems but Christ says for life his followers must do so. (John 6:54)   Watchtower orders JW family and friends to shun those quitting JWs.  Scriptures condemn unmerciful, unfair judging. (Jas 2:4, 13; 3:12) Paul says a "Majority" avoided a serious wrongdoer as he suggested (2Cor 2:6) but the word "majority" means a minority did not, proving each has freedom to decide who to associate with or not. Paul could "order" Timothy in relief work, but in Christian matters we keep freedom to differ, not be robots. James opposes formal judging as with 3-man JW committees.  Try to not shun back those who severely shun so they feel embarrassed, may change. Love never fails.  (1Co13:8)   JWs teach to always abstain from blood transfusions but Christ says God wants Mercy over Sacrifice (Mt 12:7); 1 Samuel 14 shows God forgave Saul’s men who ate unBLED meat to stay alive.  Thei JW Awake! magazine of May 22, 1994 boasts of and shows photos of JW kids who died refusing transfusions. See ajwrb.org... JWs teach call God Jehovah but Christ and Paul say call God “our Father,” not Jehovah. (Mt 6:9, Mr 14:36, Ro 8:15, Ga 4:6) Calling on God’s name to be saved (Romans 10:13) does not mean pronouncing a guessed at formal name but calling on God as a powerful, caring Father.   JWs teach the earth will remain forever, never end, (Ec 1:4) but ignore verses saying after earth passes away a new earth will come. (Mt 24:35; Lu 21:33, Re 21:1)  So the Bible says earth passes away but will be re-created, different from what JWs teach.   JWs teach "the dead are conscious of nothing at all," (Ec 9:5) They say  the dead will either be resurrected as a reward on earth or to heaven, but the wicked just keep sleeping peacefully forever but God is just, so, contrary to JWs, evildoers will be justly punished, not just given sleep... JWs teach the soul does not survive death, ignoring that although dead bodies are conscious of nothing, scriptures speak of human spirits as angels in heaven.  Souls are spirits that are or were combined with a body. JWs wrongly say survival of the soul is not taught in the Bible.   JW Elders send all JWs deemed “in good standing” to preach at doors including those they deem “repentant” pedophiles, and it is estimated that most JW congregations have at least one such pedophile whom they hide or shelter but Christ says to put the protection of our Little Ones over anyone who would hurt them. (Lu 17:2)  Victims have received big settlements. See silentlambs.org.   JWs say don’t celebrate holidays but Paul says don't let others judge us as Christians or not over celebrating holidays. (Col 2:16)  JWs teach against birthdays and Christmas but Job’s kids celebrated birthdays (Read Job 1:3 then Job 3:1,3); angels, wise men and shepherds celebrated Christ’s.  God gave Israel a harvest festival of thanks (Lev 23:33, Deu 16:13); many nations like Germany and Canada have Thanksgivings.  Leviticus 23 shows God approved New Year celebrations for Israel... JWs claim most all churches teach the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are the one same God or person. Instead most teach the 3 are different persons but one in divine nature, meaning absolute holiness.  Being equally holy they are called deity or God just as Titus 2:13 says.   Interested readers can make and use copies of this to help more JWs exit or lighten up on shunning etc. Mail copies to any you know or know of, or if you go to a kingdom hall, assembly or convention site leave copies there. When Elders ask leaving JWs “where will you go?” they can answer “To Christ, the same as you need to.”  Many safer groups exist for fellowship.  Forming their own house churches is another good option.  Unity is by love, not by forced sameness of beliefs which is uniformity not loving unity.  Read Col 3:14; 1Co 13:8, 13.  May all avoid Watchtower-Pharisaic style judging, debates or a doomsday focus, but focus on actively showing love. Any readers wanting to give the Watchtower organization a chance for denials, rebuttals or spin are welcome to phone 718 560-5000.

TESTIMONIAL: "In about 2001 I mailed about 70 letters to homes of Jehovah's Witnesses in the congregation that I was then in, also some to some other JWs attending a different congregation meeting in the same hall, and a sprinkling to JWs scattered about in Illinois.  The Elders gave some blistering Thursday night talks.  They said not to listen to the lies, that only weak ones would do so.  They practically shouted. JWs don't preach hellfire but the elders that night came as close to it as possible even mentioning bodily harm to "the underground."  It was the neatest thing.  All I could do to not laugh.  As scripture says in Deuteronomy don't fear such false prophets.  They didn't know from where the letters were coming, were like mad men flailing the air. When I look back in 2010 I find that many of those who got the letters have by now quit attending Watchtower meetings.  I also heard contributions have really dried up and what's left of the congregations are likely to merge with a third congregation.   I hear that many who have stayed in it no longer go out in service.  A number of the elders have also quit.  While I can't claim the letters did "all" of this, I believe they probably did.  At the minimum they definitely laid the ground-work.  Some of those who got copies probably passed their own copies along to go by what I heard about the circuit.  So don't listen to either Watchtower or those who are negatively disposed who claim letters can't or don't work.  If you feel forced to attend the meetings to keep your family and friends, why not put that to use.  Go to the conventions, get all the names you can, look up addresses, then mail, mail, mail.  If you ever felt helpless before, you no longer will.  Now you can have all the arrows, so shoot those arrows.  Their only "arrows" are broken, loud voices, yes, but of no use.

FREE FRIENDS & FAMILY FROM WATCHTOWER MISTEACHINGS 1 Samuel 14:31-35 (read it please) shows God forgave Saul’s men who ate meat with blood to stay alive and Matthew 12:7 says God wants Mercy not Sacrifice!  Some 200,000 JWs including kids (David A. Reed's Blood On The Altar) have died since 1945.  Blood substitutes don’t work fast enough for those bleeding fast. Christ orders us to protect our Little Ones first (Lu 17:2) yet ALL “JWs in good-standing" (even so-called "repentant" pedophiles) are to preach at homes along with unsuspecting women and children.  Christ is the MOST Faithful and Discreet Slave of God so shouldn’t we listen to Christ more than any group of men in Brooklyn?   You are told the Good News is many now living will never die but Paul teaches all sin and so all die (1Cor 15:22). The actual “Good News” of God’s Kingdom is the Christian hope of resurrection brought by Christ.   Ecclesiastes 1:4 says Earth will never end but other verses say heaven and Earth will pass away then a new heaven and Earth come. (Mt 24:35; Lu 21:33, Re 21:1)  Revelation 19:1 says the "great crowd" is where?  In heaven.  The heavenly hope is also noted at Jn 14:2, 3; 1Co 15:20, 2Co 5:1, 2; Ga 1:8, Philippians 3:20, Jas 1:17. Heaven’s gorgeous and yearning to be with Christ is natural for Christians.  Elders often pressure “anointed” partakers to quit partaking at Memorials.  A traveling Watchtower rep has estimated 50% of JWs stay in Watchtower only to not lose JW family ties due to the Watchtower’s severe cruel shunning.    At that such shunning is unBiblical for Paul at 2 Corinthians 2:6 says a “majority,” so  many but not all had shunned a serious wrongdoers as he had suggested.  He could order Timothy in their relief work but not lord over other Christians, only suggest.  Major proofs against “shunning” are:   James 2:4, 4:12 and 1 Corinthians 6:1. 1 Corinthians 15:33 says people naturally warn others when someone is a dangerous influence but, still, we are not to overly or formally judge.  Luke 6:37 says "Do not judge, and you will not be judged."   In late 2009 four elders at the London branch were disfellowshipped for teaching when 1 Timothy 2:5 says Christ is the Mediator between “God and men,” the word “men” applies to all humans.  Watchtower’s stand against Christ being Mediator for all humans goes back to the April 1, 1979 Watchtower magazine in its “Questions From Readers.”   Most JWs try to overlook this point or hope in vain it might be reformed but in fact if you teach Christ is the Mediator for all, Watchtower will disfellowship you too.   Where can those leaving go?  Many read the Bible itself, some have house churches (Romans 16:1) or have gone to safer Christ-oriented churches.  Please consider passing along copies of this.

Besides the severe shunning (disfellowshipping) that the Watchtower Society over JWs uses, the Watchtower heads have caused many JWs to bleed to death from not taking a transfusion, sheltered so-called "repentant" pedophiles among unsuspecting JW women and children, etc.  As said, they also keep destroying countless families and lives via their disfellowshipping/harsh shunning policy.  For active JWs to see clearly that despite some cherry-picked scriptures, the Bible also has scriptures against the Watchtower policies and misteachings, it is necessary to fight fire with fire, scriptures with scriptures, false facts with real facts, which is what is done here. Remember that even if some of you who read this may no longer be as religious, still, these effectively help those who do still think the Watchtower Society over Jehovah's Witnesses goes by Bible "Truth," and so it is that these items can quickly help JWs un-study or de-program as they use scriptures to counter what they have been going by, having the misinformation drummed into them year after year.    As said, you fight fire with fire; misapplied scriptures with accurate counter-balancing scriptures.  Doing nothing, would be to do exactly that, nothing.  So, these, on the other hand, do something! Some of the following are long, others short.  Some do and some don't mention the name of any specific group such as Jehovah's Witnesses or Mormons, etc, etc.  Just read until you find one that you feel would work best for your own situation and needs.  Modify any if and where you feel the need. It's very true that Watchtower-appointed Elders and official publications try to discourage people from distributing these and similar items by mail and email by mis-informing their members to get them to either (1) throw away the items when they come upon or are given copies of them, and (2) untruthfully claiming that the items don't work.  Contrary to the Watchtower's propaganda to discourage Ex-JWs and others from providing the material to active JWs such as family members, the items do work.  Otherwise why would Watchtower be so insistent that they not be read, and keep warning members to not read them?   That's common sense, and it better to go by that than what Watchtower has mistaught about it. Many, not just this author, can tell you from experience that they work so long as kindly worded, accurate and with some scriptures etc for reference.   I've personally used them and guaranteed you they work.  Sometimes, for example, with the blood issues lives have been quickly saved.  I can honestly tell you that's true because I was told by an internet posting that I had saved a person's life this way. As briefly said, it's been unfortunately that a lot of ExJWs, doubtlessly including some reading this, although leaving Watchtower have kept in their minds the Watchtower-planted idea, propaganda or brainwashing that it's a waste of time and effort to mail items exposing Watchtower misteachings and wrongs.  For emphasis, again, just recognize that this is what they want people to think, not the Truth about it any more so than with their misteachings on many other things like the false date-settings including 1975. People in general as well as JW family members and friends still in Watchtower do read the material when it comes in the mail.  Yes, if you stick it in their hands JWs will likely throw it away in such a situation when at a householder's door, but when they get a letter from someone in the privacy of their own homes, it gets read.   In fact the more JWs are told by Watchtower and the Elders it appoints not to read informative letters, the more eager most are to do just that. JWs who get these items are immediately helped to start making some changes you'll like.   They may stay in "nominally," but quickly move to mentally leave it by doing less for such a cult, giving it less or nothing at all for monetary donations, ignoring the Watchtower's orders to "strictly" shun family and friends who quit them.   If not a "knock-out" punch, an Exit-maker item(s) at the least causes many to soften up and encourages them to leave later.  Also, the more seeds you sew, the more chances that some will sprout. Some ExJWs and other friends find it good to not mail items directly to family members and friends still in it, but to start by mailing to other JWs connected closely to the loved ones.  Those get softened and weaned off Watchtower, then the still-JW family members and relatives, seeing these others have left or stopped so much support of Watchtower, feel better about doing the same.   The real, lovingly presented truth definitely does set people free.  Please also note that letters mailed in Canada need a return address, unlike with letters mailed from within the United States.  If in another land such as the Phillipines, the U.K. etc go by whatever is right in your own location. --  Thanks for reading this, and now here's some Exit-makers!

DEAR JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES: Did you know 1 Samuel 14:31-35 shows God forgave all Saul's men who ate un-BLED meat to stay alive; Christ at Matthew 12:7 says God wants Mercy not Sacrifice.  So why die or have others die unBiblically?  The Watchtower Society over you orders All JWs including so-called "repentant" pedophiles to preach at homes along with unsuspecting JW women and children despite Christ warning to protect Little Ones first. (Lu 17:2) Pedophiles are statistically almost 100% likely to re-offend; sometimes commit other crimes like peeping-Tommery and bedroom wiretapping etc.  Since 1972 a Watchtower directive has let “repentant” pedophiles stay Elders. There are other ways to witness. Christ and apostles often preached informally; went from a house in one town to one in another, never door-after-door. Watchtower's own New World translation (Luke 10:7) says don’t be transferring about. Hands-on kindness beats words; Christ literally fed with fish and bread not just words. Paul says don’t let others judge us as Christians or not over celebrating holidays (Col 2:16), but Watchtower says do just that. Not only did angels and shepherds celebrate Christ's birth but Job 1:3 and Job 3:1, 3 show Job's children also celebrated days of birth, that is birthdays.  Happy times build happier families.   Watchtower’s teaching “many now living will never die” is the exact opposite of Paul's teaching all sin and therefore all will die (1Co 15:22). The “Good News” is instead the resurrection hope.  Earth will never end (Ec 1:4) but the Bible adds heaven and Earth will pass away although a new heaven and Earth will come. (Mt 24:35; Lu 21:33, Re 21:1) So it's in the sense of being recreated that Earth remains forever. Revelation 19:1 says there will be a "great crowd" in heaven not that only a “Little Flock” go to heaven.  Read the Christian hope for heaven at Jn 14:2, 3; 1Co 15:20, 2Co 5:1, 2; Ga 1:8, Philippians 3:20, Jas 1:17.  Unlike Watchtower Christ says his all followers must partake of the wine and bread. (Jn 6:53, 54). Note that regarding Watchtower’s style of shunning, James 4:12 says “There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you—who are you to judge your neighbor?” 1 Corinthians 6:1 say judge only "trivial" things as in business here on earth though the Bible says at resurrection some will even judge angels. Still, this is the earth.  James 2:4 tells judgers “Have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?” Verse 13 calls judging harmful.  We naturally warn others when someone is a danger (1Co15:33) but, still, we are not to overly or formally judge. (Lu 6:37)  Paul says the "MAJORITY" followed his saying shun a wrongdoer (2Co2:6), meaning a MINORITY chose not to, yet he nowhere condemns that minority.   Christ visited and ate with imperfect people; Pharisees acted too righteous to and they condemned him for it. Modern Pharisees say shunning is tough love meant to shame others, but rigid, harsh-style shunning is anti-Christ as it causes not shame but depression, sometimes suicide.  Christians must follow Christ, scriptures and common sense not those who write they know the Bible but don’t.  (Re 14:4) Scriptures say there are three who are different (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) but one in what various translations at Romans 1:20 call Godship (New World), godhead, divinity or divine essence, meaning they and only they three are 100% totally holy. Watchtower men falsely tell JWs and others trinity means the three are one same God person or a three-headed God. Christ shows himself, not Watchtower heads is the MOST Faithful and Discreet Slave of God (Mt 24:45): "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (Jn 6:68; 14:6) Lovingly told truth (Jn 8:32) sets free so please make and share copies of this.

EXTREME SHUNNING IS UNBIBLICAL AND CRUEL Doesn’t James 4:12 say “There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you—who are you to judge your neighbor?” Doesn’t 1 Corinthians 6:1 say judge only "trivial" things as in business here on earth though the Bible says at resurrection some will even judge angels. Still, this is the earth. James 2:4 tells judgers “Have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?” Verse 13 says mercy beats judging. 1 Corinthians 15:33 says people naturally warn others when someone is a dangerous influence but, still, we are not to overly or formally judge.  Luke 6:37 says "Do not judge, and you will not be judged." At 2 Corinthians 2:6 Paul says the "MAJORITY" followed his saying shun a wrongdoer, meaning a MINORITY chose not to, yet he nowhere condemns that minority. Isn’t it true that Christ visited and ate with imperfect people, while Pharisees pretended they were too righteous to do so and condemned him for doing so? Some of today's "Christian" churches are run by men similar to the ancient Pharisees in that they say their shunning is loving or tough love meant to shame others but in fact their rigid, harsh-to-extremist style shunning is anti-Christ as it causes not shame but depression and sometimes suicide. Finally, isn’t it true that a true Christian considers Christ himself as the MOST Faithful and Discreet Slave of God, and it’s better to follow Christ and the scriptures themselves than those who pretend they know the Bible better than others but don’t.  Mt 24:45) Please make and share copies of this.  John 8:32 says people who learn the real truth really are set free.

KNOWING THE REASON WHY A PERSON JOINED OR STICKS WITH A CULT CAN HELP YOU GIVE  HIM/HER SAFER WAYS TO OBTAIN WHAT S/HE WANTS OR NEED THAN THE CULT in the hope that doing so and sticking with it will cause God to give them better health, restore their eyesight or mobility, relief from depression etc to please family or friends who are already in it, for friends because lonely after a divorce or coming to live in a new country, for influence or power over other people, thinking that it really is backed by the Bible and so is pleasing to God, out of disappointment with previous religious experiences, etc a sense of belonging and self-worth as a means of support during hard times whether somehow economic, spiritual, emotional or physical

DEAR JWs AND THOSE STUDYING WITH JW'S, HOW MANY OF THESE DO YOU KNOW >1 Samuel 14:31-35 shows God forgave all Saul's men who ate un-BLED meat to stay alive; Christ at Matthew 12:7 says God wants Mercy not Sacrifice. The senseless shedding of even one life means blood guilt. Paul says the "MAJORITY" (2Co 2:6) followed his saying shun a wrongdoer, meaning a MINORITY chose not to, yet he nowhere condemns that minority. Watchtower actually has formal “Judicial Committees” of JW Elders although 1 Corinthians 6:1 tells Christians to only judge "trivial" things as in business, and James 2:4-13 calls judging harmful. Those on Judicial Committees need to note James 2:4 says “Have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?” It's natural and scriptural to warn others of really evil association but Watchtower goes beyond the scriptures, is way too harsh and rigid; its type of disfellowshipping has destroyed lives, caused depression and suicides. Watchtower pressures "all" JWs to preach door-to-door, again: ALL JW's, and all includes their sending so-called "repentant" pedophiles preaching along with unsuspecting JW women and children to unsuspecting home of the Public and the Public's children. In contrast Christ says protect the Little Ones. Read Luke 17:2! Pedophiles are statistically almost 100% likely to re-offend. There are alternative ways to witness. Christ and apostles often preached informally; they went to a house in one town then walked to another in another town, didn’t knock door-after-door. In fact the New World translation says at Luke 10:7 to not be transferring about; and besides, witnessing by hands-on loving-kindness beats words. Christ also literally fed with fish and bread. Paul says do not let others judge us as Christians or not over celebrating holidays (Col 2:16), but JWs are mistaught to do just that. Not only did angels and shepherds celebrate Christ's birth but Job 1:3 and then Job 3:1, 3 (please read) show Job's children celebrated days of their days of birth too. Scriptures say there are three who are different (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) but one in what various translations at Romans 1:20 calls Godship (New World), godhead, divinity or divine essence, meaning they and only they three are 100% totally holy. Watchtower falsely tells JWs and others it means the three are one same God person, like a three-headed God. The teaching that many now living will never die is the exact opposite Paul's teaching all sin and therefore all will die (1Co 15:22). The “Good News” of God’s Kingdom is not a coming Paradise Earth with eternal life, but the Christian hope of resurrection with Christ. Although Ecclesiastes 1:4 says Earth will never end, Christ and the Bible further say heaven and Earth will pass away although a new heaven and Earth will come. (Mt 24:35; Lu 21:33, Re 21:1) It appears then to be in the sense of being recreated that Earth remains forever; although it is also true for example that our heavenly Father may have created many other mansion-like planets to which humans may get to go.  Revelation 19:1 says there will be a "great crowd" in heaven but JWs mis-teach only a “Little Flock” go to heaven. Christian hope of going to Christ in heaven is also noted at Jn 14:2, 3; 1Co 15:20, 2Co 5:1, 2; Ga 1:8, Philippians 3:20, Jas 1:17.   Christ says followers must partake of the wine and bread. (Read John 6:53, 54) but Watchtower has pressured JWs so much that 99% don't do so. To truly follow the Lamb and only the Lamb wherever he leads means to know that Christ himself, not Watchtower heads, is the MOST Faithful and Discreet Slave of God. Christ tells us "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (Jn 6:68; 14:6) So when asked “where” you would go if you left Watchtower, remember Christ said it's not To Where but to Whom you will go.  For Christians the answer is Christ himself. Christ says you will know the truth and it will set you free. It can help free others as well. Please make and share copies of this. (John 8:32)

Dear Jehovah's Witnesses: This is brief, truthful and meant in loving-kindness.  Some of you will find it very hard although you sense or know that it is 100% true.  To begin, did you know the Watchtower Society over you has ALL "JWs in good-standing" including so-called "repentant" pedophiles to preach at homes along with mostly unsuspecting JW women and children despite Christ warning to protect Little Ones first. (Lu 17:2) Pedophiles are statistically almost 100% likely to re-offend; sometimes commit other crimes like peeping-Tommery and bedroom wiretapping etc.  Since 1972 a Watchtower directive has let “repentant” pedophiles stay Elders. Yet there are other ways to witness. Christ and the apostles often preached informally; went from a house in one town to one in another, never door-after-door. The New World translation (Lu 10:7) says don’t be transferring about. Hands-on kindness beats words; Christ literally fed with fish and bread not just words.  Feel free to make and mail along copies of this.

SHARE COPIES ABOUT JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES DISFELLOWSHIPPING/SHUNNING ETC: JWs used the word “disfellowshipping” for their formal practice of severe shunning, cutting off normal ties with one’s family.  Although older Christians naturally warn others when someone is a dangerous influence to avoid (1 Corinthians 15:33), JWs go against Christ who at Luke 6:37 says "Do not judge, and you will not be judged." (Lu 6:37)  Similarly James 4:12 says “There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you—who are you to judge your neighbor?” James 2:4 tells judgers “Have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?”    Though Christ said families would split over doing right or wrong things he never said destroy families by shunning. (Mt 10:34-36)  JWs actually have formal “Judicial Committees” of Elders although 1 Corinthians 6:1 tells Christians to only judge "trivial" things as in business, James 2:4-13 calls judging harmful. Paul says the "MAJORITY" (2Co 2:6) followed his saying shun a wrongdoer, meaning a MINORITY chose not to, yet he nowhere condemns that minority.  Christ visited and ate with imperfect people.  JWs don’t disfellowship just over evildoing as some claim but also over weaknesses like smoking; brand “apostates” those dissenting from Watchtower’s misteachings. They claim it’s loving and produces righteous fruitage though tough, but it has caused and worsened depression, caused suicides.  Christ associated with the imperfect, showed us to rejoice over return of the prodigal son.   BAD FRUITAGE:  There are good regular JWs but in 1972 the Watchtower Society over JWs sent Elders a directive that fellow Elders who confess to pedophilia need not be deleted as Elders if several years (later defined as 2-3 years) had passed and they appeared to still “enjoy Jehovah’s blessing,” that is their “sin” (“crime”) had not become widely known.  So pedophiles and their protectors grow in numbers, %, power, hidden among JW men, women, kids.  Few regular JWs know of the directive.  Some head up kingdom halls, preach at the public’s doors although Department Of Justice statistics show they almost always re-offend.  Christ says protect Little Ones not pedophiles. (Lu 17:2) The internet is full of 100% reputable news of cases and convictions.   Worried insiders tipped off that Watchtower has a database of some 23,000 pedophiles it shelters among JWs in the U.S. (lovenorris.com) For example Phillip and Nancy Garrido who victimized Jaycee Lee Dugard were long-time JWs.  There are also so-called “repentant” peeping Toms, wiretappers, murderers etc endangering other JWs, their kids, the public.  Some mentally unstable Elders have interpreted the vacillating bedroom laws to mean married JW couples having other than missionary-style sex are to be sifted out for having "dog sex." (Rev 22:15)  Nuts misuse Acts 5:29 saying obey "God rather than men" to justify internal detective work, witch-hunt. (Contrast Ro 13:1; 1Pe 2:13)   BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS:  JWs say it’s right for themselves and their kids to die rather than take an emergency whole blood transfusion; but God forgave all Saul’s men who ate unbled meat because it was for them to stay alive.  Read 1 Samuel 14:31-35.  Christ at Matthew 7:12 says God wants Mercy not Sacrifice.  Some 200,000 may have died from 1945 to now. (David A. Reed.  Blood On The Altar) THE DIVINE NAME: Christ says use “Father.” (Mt 6:9)  Paul says use “Abba” meaning Dad or Pappa. (Ro 8:15, Ga 4:6)   JWs say use Jehovah, a common formal name for God in King James at Psalm 83:18.  They say Romans 10:13 saying “call on the name of the Lord” to be saved means use “Jehovah” though it refers not to a literal pronunciation of name but to calling on the person of God to save us.    FUTURE: The main JW teaching is that “many now living will never die but live forever on paradise earth,” the exact opposite of the apostle Paul who says all sin and therefore all will die (1Co 15:22).  The “Good News” of God’s Kingdom is not a coming Paradise Earth with eternal life, but the Christian hope of resurrection with Christ.  JWs stress that Ecclesiastes 1:4 says Earth will never end, but they also ignore that Christ and the Bible say heaven and Earth will pass away although a new heaven and Earth will come. (Mt 24:35; Lu 21:33, Re 21:1)  In the sense of being recreated, Earth remains forever.  Revelation 19:1 says there will be a "great crowd" in heaven but JWs mis-teach only a “Little Flock” go to heaven.   Christian hope of going to Christ in heaven is also noted at Jn 14:2, 3; 1Co 15:20, 2Co 5:1, 2; Ga 1:8, Philippians 3:20, Jas 1:17.    TRINITY: Scriptures say there are three who are different (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) but one in what various translations at Romans 1:20 calls Godship, godhead, divinity or divine essence, meaning they and only they three are 100% totally holy.  JWs are falsely taught it means the three are one same God person, like a three-headed God.  BIBLE: Revelation 22:19 says anyone adding to or deleting from the Bible is accursed and looses eternal life.  Though 5,000+ early manuscripts exist in whole or part, none have the word Jehovah or Yahweh in the New Testament, but JWs’ Watchtower heads added it there in their New World Bible translation that they claim experts laud though most criticize it.  MISPREDICTIONS:  JWs have mispredicted when Armageddon would occur destroying the world as we know it but Christ says beyond God “no one knows” when that will be! (Mt 24:36)   HOLIDAYS.  Paul says do not let others judge us as Christians or not over celebrating holidays (Col 2:16), but JWs are taught to.  They say don’t celebrate birthdays though angels and shepherds at Luke 2 celebrated Christ's, many believe Job 1:3 and then Job 3:1, 3 clearly show Job's children celebrated days of their birth, and Jude 12 says the earliest Christians enjoyed balanced merriment at "love feasts." JWs denounce holidays as of pagan origins yet use names of days and months, wedding rings and money, all from pagans.   Holidays form positive memories and affection for stronger families.  Mental health experts note much higher mental depression among JWs.  JWs teach Thanksgiving is super-nationalistic but God granted Jews an annual day of thanks (also a New Year’s day) and many other nations such as Canada, the Philippines and Germany celebrate Thanksgivings.  JWs do not teach Halloween began when Christians costumed kids like faithful Bible figures tortured and martyred for staying faithful, though some Christians have freedom not to or to substitute other parties since modern Halloween also has negatives about it.  JWs insist only a literally numbered 144,000 anointed people go to heaven, the other 99% of JWs, unscripturally denied Christian communion, meaning not to partake of the wine and bread.  (John 6:53, 54) This is symbolically denying the body of Christ.   Though Christmas may have come from the non-Christian Saturnalia as JWs say, other sources say it may be from Jewish Hannukah which first began December 25, but the date varies yearly now as based on the moon.  In the winter Christ, himself a rabbi, was at the Feast of Dedication (Jn 10:22), another term for Hannukah, with its special lights, foods, gifts.  JWs say Santa Claus came from a pagan god or wizard but he came from Saint Nicholas, a famous actual Christian gift-giver.  They say the Christmas tree began in pagan tree worship, but research says it began as the Paradise Tree in Eden in medieval church plays.   Though JWs like to say most encyclopedias and dictionaries say the name Easter is from an ancient non-Christian pagan goddess Eastre, they ignore the name may also have come from the Old English or Anglo-Saxon word for East or Eastern, the direction Christianity came from into Europe.  Matthew 24:27 indicates Christ may return from the east to resurrect.  JWs say eggs and rabbits used during Easter are from pagan fertility rites but they have always been used to symbolize new life as in resurrection.   JWs claim Christ didn't die on a cross but an upright stake or pole and the cross is a horrible murder weapon.   The word “stauros” can mean cross or stake, but archaeology and forensics show it definitely was a cross.  Paul says boast of the cross because Christ made it a symbol of resurrection hope. (Ga 6:14, 1Co 1:17-18)   SLEEP OR JUSTICE:  JWs teach that all people, therefore even truly evil persons just sleep in peace forever after death.  If so, how would that be justice for victims?  Would getting to peacefully sleep be justice from God regarding violent, wicked people?   The body of a dead person is dead, asleep as scripture says (Ec 9:5), but there is a spirit that remains after a living soul (body with spirit) passes.  That spirits survive is biblical not pagan as JWs mis-teach. (Ps 90:10, 1 Ki 17:21-22)   PREACHING “DOOR TO DOOR.”  Christ and apostles preached at a house in one town then walked to another, didn’t knock door-after-door.  (Lu 10:7)  Witnessing by kindness beats words.  ONE FAITH: Paul said there’s “one faith” (Eph 4:5) meaning general Christianity, JWs not even existing till the late 1800s, yet JWs say theirs is the only true faith, “The Truth.”  WHERE TO GO: Christ answers: "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (Jn 6:68; 14:6)   So Christ says the answer is not to “where” one will go after leaving Watchtower but as he said, to Whom one will go: himself.  False friends may speak badly of those who leave for him, but he blesses those who do. (Mt 5:11, Re 18:4),  Please use copies.

THIS EXIT-MAKER IS SHORT AND MAKES A FEW QUICK POINTS AS SINCERE CHRISTIAN WITNESSES, not Jehovah's Witnesses, we believe it is loving and right to truthfully expose grevious wrongs.  For example, 200,000 Jehovah’s Witnesses including some children (David A. Reed's Blood On The Altar) have died since 1945 mistold by the Watchtower Society over them that God doesn't allow emergency blood transfusions even though 1 Samuel 14:31-35 (read it please) shows God forgave Saul’s men who ate meat with blood to stay alive!   Also, since 1972 Watchtower has told JW Elders they don't have to delete as fellow Elders those confessed to child molestation if 2-3 years have passed without the molestation becoming widely known.  This causes the number of pedophiles abusing JW children to accumulate!  Pedophiles are almost 100% likely to harm more kids, sometimes commit other crimes such as stalking, peeping-tommery; harassing, wiretapping etc to try to intimidate child victims and outspoken adults! See news reports from CBS, NBC, BBC etc at silentlambs.org.     JWs, as also the case with some other groups, for example the FLDS, are not themselves able to freely speak out or they get shunned by those blindly obeying their organizational heads who say theirs is God’s only true organization on earth.  JWs thus lose normal association with family members, and families are destroyed.  Christ spoke of families divided over some doing right, others wrong, not destroyed by religious dictatorships, and James condemned formal judging of other Christians such as by Watchtower Judicial Committees.  2 Corinthians 2:6 says a "majority" hence not all Christians at Corinth went along with Paul's recommendation to not associate with a wrongdoer and they weren't shunned for not agreeing even with Paul.  Today, although feeling they have to be quiet about it many who are still JWs definitely do appreciate our efforts to inform the public and other JWs, are pleased too that this is done out of a spirit of loving-kindness, tough for some to hear, true, yet helping to save lives, bring more safety and joy.  So, by all means, please do freely make, mail and leave about copies of this informative letter.  If you know JWs please mail them copies.

HERE IN THE LONG BOX FARTHER BELOW IS AN EXIT-MAKER HANDY FOR EXTENSIVE DE-PROGRAMMING: MANY OF THE Babyboomer generation born 1945-1952 converted to being Jehovah's Witnesses during the 1960 and 1970s because they studied The Truth That Leads To Eternal Life, nicknamed the little Blue Bomb.   The book or booklet was short and provided plenty of scriptures to "prove" Watchtower doctrines, thus making it highly effective as a programming tool for those with a Bible interest and respect.  So the following is also brief but full of scriptures that prove, though, that Watchtower's doctrines are shakey, unbalanced, dictatorial, and even gravely false.   Those who were studied into the Watchtower can similarly be reverse-studied (deprogrammed) out of it even faster.

MAILED WITH CHRISTIAN LOVE FOR ACTIVE JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES TO STUDY & GET COPIES OF TO OTHER JWs INCLUDING ELDERS: 1. WHAT THE GOOD NEWS IS. Friends, you have heard it said to teach as good news that "many now living will never die but live forever in paradise on earth" but Paul tells us that all sin and therefore all will die (1 Cor 15:22), Adam and Eve were falsely told by the serpent or Satan the devil that they would never die but live forever in paradise,  (Genesis 3) and the entire coming of Christ is about the hope of the resurrection, the true Good News. 2. THE FUTURE OF HEAVEN AND EARTH. Although it sometimes noted that Ecclesiastes 1:4 says Earth will never end, Christ and the Bible say heaven and Earth will pass away although a new Heaven and Earth will come.  Read Matthew 24:35; Luke 21:33, Revelation 21:1 to see this.   So precisely as Ecclesiastes says, even as generation of humans have come and gone our planet Earth will also vanished but then be recreated; and in this sense that the Earth definitely remains forever.  Also doesn't Revelation 19:1 say a "great crowd" is in Heaven, not on earth.  Read it to see for yourself.  You may also read and reflect upon John 14:2, 3; 1 Corinthians 15:20, 2 Corinthians 5:1, 2; Galatians 1:8, Philippians 3:20, James 1:17.   Earth returned to paradise will be gorgeous, but the starry heavens are even more stunning and our Father has "many mansions," including many other lovely planets, vast systems of stars and galaxies.   3. OUR DEAD LOVED ONES.  You have it stressed Ecclesiastes 9:5 says "the dead are conscious of nothing at all," and indeed when you are dead you are dead (with brain non-functioning, unconscious) but balancing are scriptures saying Christians are resurrected as spirits instantly upon death, in heaven being as angels fully conscious praising God.  Bodies die; but the Bible speaks of human spirits resurrected and continuing.  Read 1 Corinthians 15. 4. BLOOD. Please read 1 Samuel 14:31-35.  It shows God forgave Saul's men who ate unbled meat with blood to stay alive.   Also read and discuss with us Matthew 12:7;  Christ says God wants Mercy not Sacrifice.   Acts 15 says abstain from blood and although originally referring to meat markets, it is not unreasonable to normally go by today due to micro-organisms at time in blood, but for emergency life-and-death situations, read and note these other verses.   Blood expanders like saline solution don't act fast enough to stop women with rapid bleeding from giving birth, people gushing blood after car wrecks etc.  Since 1945 an estimated 200,000 JWs have unnecessarily bled to death, some children and babies. (David A. Reed's Blood On The Altar)   5. THE TRINITY.  Read Titus 2:13 and see for yourselves who it says Jesus is.  The Bible speaks of God, Christ, Holy Spirit as three different persons but one in perfect holiness or what Romans 1:20 calls "divine essence" which some translations call godship or godhead.  The Father is greatest in relative position but all three are equal in being uniquely holy, sharing together eternity, power and substance (holiness).  Watchtower has said the trinity belief is the three are the exact same person.  The truth is that only a very few churches teach belief the Father morphs into Christ etc, a belief that is not trinitarian but called Oneness or modalism.   Some Christians do call the Three or Trinity by the word Divinity or God but with the understanding that they are three distinct persons.  Again, read Titus 2:13 etc. 6. GOD'S NAME.  Read Matthew 6:9, Mark 14:36, Romans 8:15, and Galatians 4:6.  Christ says pray to not a formal guessed at name of God but to "our Father."  Other apostles similarly say use "Abba" which means Papa, Dad or Daddy.  We are to call on God's name to be saved in the sense of calling for God's help, not uttering some pronunciation like an incantation.  Those preferring to use formal guessed at names like Jehovah or Yahweh are free to do so, but why not use "Father" more for closeness and because Christ and Paul tell us to. 7. PREACHING. At Luke 10:1-7 Christ says go from a house in one location to a house in another location, and that's what he did.  Nowhere in the Bible did Christian go to door-after-door selling or asking donations for Bible literature.  They got freely and gave freely.  Bible examples show preaching not only in homes but outdoors for example in the Ethiopian eunuch's vehicle, from a boat etc, where God's Holy Spirit prompted.  Conversions were swift, long studies not needed, the quickly imparted Good News being that Christ came and died to bring us hope of the resurrection. 8. PROTECTION OF OUR LITTLE ONES.  Please read Luke 17:2.  Contrast what Christ says there to Watchtower's ordering Elders to keep sending "repentant" pedophiles, murderers, etc, to our doors, letting them be around to endanger Little Ones among JWs and the Public.   If someone harms a little boy or girl, turn him into the police.  Don't protect such a criminal for the sake of the group's "image" or tell parents to "wait on Jehovah" saying nothing or else be disfellowshipped; obey the officials God allows to rule. (Read Romans chapter 13) 9. BIBLE TRANSLATION.   Don't you know God condemns that although no early manuscript has guessed at, formal names like Jehovah in the New Testament, (Read Revelation 22:18, 19) yet the Watchtower has deliberately put it there.  10. HOLIDAYS.  Colossians 2:16 says we're not to let others judge us as Christians over celebrating holidays.  Note that angels and shepherds at Luke 2 celebrated Christ's birthday.  Thanksgiving has been celebrated in many lands even before the USA.  God started an annual harvest festival as Levitcus 23:33 and Deuteronomy 16:13 show, and also started a New Year's celebration for ancient Israel. (Leviticus 23).  Job 1:3 and then Job 3:1, 3 believe it is clear the banquet days Job's children celebrated were birthdays, and Jude 12 says the earliest Christians enjoyed balanced merriment at "love feasts." CHRISTMAS: Christmas may have come from the non-Christian Saturnalia as many encyclopedias suggest, but others point out that it may also have come from the Jewish celebration of Hannukah.  The date of the first Jewish festival of Hannukah was December 25 but the date varies yearly now because based on the moon.   In fact John 10:22 says in the winter Christ, himself a Jewish rabbi, was at the "Feast of Dedication," another term for Hannukah, which is also called the Festival of Lights because it has Menorah lights, also special foods, gifts etc remindful of Christmas.  Christmas has always been used to honor Christ, not some ancient sun god such as for the Saturnalia etc.  So for Christians it is definitely Christian not pagan.  The names of days and months came from ancient gods' names such as Thursday which is formed from the name of the god Thor- and the word -day as well as June which is from the god named Juno.  For that matter wedding rings and money came from pagans but are used.   Not doing celebrating holidays works against positive memories and the normal ties of affection among family members.  The celebrating of holidays helps build strong Christian families.  Mental health experts have noted a much higher incidence of mental depression among anti-holiday groups including JWs who are taught and say they are the happiest of people on the earth. Although Watchtower teaches the Christmas tree came from the worship of trees the truth is that it began in Medieval church plays as the Tree of Paradise in the Garden of Eden; also Santa Claus is not from a pagan god or wizard but from the famous Christian gift-giver, Nicholas, later called Saint Nicholas, who quietly left gifts at night to help the poor.  In Dutch his name was "Sinter 'Claus," in English becoming the name "Santa Claus." A bishop at Myra, he wore red and carried a miter cane, quietly dropped small bags of gold through open windows at night where they fell near the chimney hearth at homes with poor girls.  The next morning the girls went to get clothing they had laid to dry by the hearth, found the gold, and used it as dowries for marriage instead of being sold as slaves or concubines.  EASTER: Some encyclopedias say the English name for Easter is from an ancient non-Christian pagan goddess named Eastre, but others say it may be from the Old English word for East or Eastern.  Christianity came to Europe from the East, more precisely the Middle East.  Also many Christians believe Christ may return from the East to resurrect people basing the possibility on Matthew 24:27 etc.   Watchtower teaches early Christians began using Easter eggs and rabbits as vestiges of ancient pagan fertility rites, instead of noting that eggs are symbols of new life or resurrection, rabbits not only frequently bear new life but appear first here then there as Christ did being resurrected. 11. PERFECT LEADER.  Matthew 24:45 shows Christ speaking of a faithful and discreet or loyal and wise servant over Christians.   Christ himself is God's MOST faithful and discreet or wise servant ever.  Those who deny Christ's being first are denying Christ.   Those upset with any religious or other group can go straight to Christ anytime and always should instead of giving absolute obedience to misleading, abusive human leaders. 12. PERFECT ORGANIZATION.  God's Kingdom organization including the angels is still safely in heaven although through training from Bible reading and the conscience God gave us it has beeb guiding as Christians upon the earth for some 2,000 years.  When Paul said there's "one faith" (Ephesians 4:5) there was and still is the one general faith of Christianity.  It is not any one group such as Watchtower or Mormons who popped up in the 1800s, but Christianity in the universal or general sense.   Different branches of the one faith differ some in non-essentials but Colossians 3:14 says that Christian UNITY is based on Love, not on sameness.  "Uniformity" is not "unity," and it can only exist where there is coersion such as shunning that often results in the destruction of families and sometimes suicides.  If sameness were good, God would not have made different flowers.  The allowing of some variety is evidence of what is good and godly. 13. FREEDOM IN CHRIST.  Christ grants us great Christian freedom as is seen reading all of Romans 14 and John 8:32.  Christians are to not be judging so much but allowing freedom to differ in non-essentials.   To see some essentials read Hebrews 16:1.  Paul says at 2 Corinthians 2:6 a "Majority" not all at Corinth had agreed to punish a wrongdoer as Paul had suggested.  Paul could "order" Timothy as a worker in relief ministry, but not even Paul could tell all the Corinthian Christians or Timothy what to do as if he, Paul, were some manner of religious overseer.   14. STAYING LOYAL TO CHRIST: So there was and is freedom of conscience for Christians who are to stay faithful to Christ instead of the misteachings of men.  Let us obey Christ, the Most faithful and discreet slave of God, not be donating time or money to men harming ourselves and others.    Instead we need to help our families and obey Christ who says his yoke is light and gentle, refreshing and joyful.  Those leaving Watchtower mentally, as an estimated 30% already have (related from Brooklyn), or who will do so outright, are urged to not fall into wrongdoing, atheism etc but to draw closer to our beloved Father in heaven.  May Holy Spirit come upon, anoint, comfort and guide you now and forever, Amen. 15. FINAL NOTE ABOUT ASSOCIATION: Those who will become or already are independent and wish to associate with some other Christian groups, form independent Bible Study groups etc, certainly have important decisions to make.  Please do make and share copies of this letter, Friends, which comes to you as an expression of loving concern from your fellow Brothers and Sisters in the Christian faith, part of the "Free" Witnesses movement.

THIS ONE ALSO TELLS ABOUT OUR FELLOWSHIP: GOOD NEWS PLUS TWO GRAVE CONCERNS TO INFORM THE PUBLIC: No, we’re not Jehovah’s Witnesses (JWs) who are headed by the Watchtower Society, who distribute magazines etc, asking donations at doors.  Led overall only by Christ, the most faithful and discreet or wise of all who ever served God (Mt24:45, Mt23:10), our own until now mostly internet-based fellowship is Christian Witnesses.  Thousands associate already.  Our fellowship promotes joy regardless of different beliefs (Ga 5:22), although our own beliefs are freedom to differ united by love (Ro 14:1-5; Co 3:14); resurrection to heaven or earth; the inviting of friendly people to home Bible readings (Mt 28:19, Ro 16:1), praying, sharing meals, helping the needy (Ga 2:10); a group of two or more can appoint reputable elders (older ones) to do desired services (1Tim 3; Ac 6:5), groups may voluntarily work together etc.  We rejoice that although Paul points out that no human alive today will live forever as all sin (read 1Cor15:22), thanks to Christ there is the resurrection hope.  We also note that Christ said God alone knows the day or hour of the end (Mt24:36) when the heavens and Earth will pass away; but happily a new heavens and Earth will come (Mt24:35; Lu21:33, Re21:1) so that our Earth will remain forever as Ecclesiastes 1:4 says. Christianwitnesses.com emails free newsletters to those signed in.  Although not JWs we are highly concerned about their Silentlambs and BleedingLambs crises involving the safety of JWs and sometimes the public.  One estimate is that 200,000 JWs (David A. Reed's Blood On The Altar) have died since 1945 mistold by Watchtower that God doesn't allow emergency blood transfusions even though 1 Samuel 14:31-35 (read it please) shows God forgave Saul’s men who ate meat with blood to stay alive!  If that bothers you too, mail JWs a copy of what you are reading to inform them more correctly (Watchtower sure doesn’t); also, send donations made out to the trust fund called Watchtower Lawsuit to: Lawrence Hughes; P.O.B 20161; Calgary Place, RPO; Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2P 4J3.  Your donations will help him pay debts incurred through court actions against Watchtower since his daughter Bethany’s death and enable him to keep assisting others who have also lost and stand to lose loved ones. Most JWs don’t know that since 1972 Watchtower has told JW Elders they don't have to delete as fellow Elders those confessed to child molestation if 2-3 years have passed without the molestation becoming widely known.  This causes the number of pedophiles to accumulate!  Watchtower shelters all pedophiles it deems "repentant sinners," keeping their “sins” (most people would say crimes) secret from unsuspecting JW women and kids, as they go with Bibles to the public's doors where even more kids and unsuspecting parents are. Pedophiles are almost 100% likely to harm more kids, sometimes commit other crimes such as stalking, peeping-tommery; harassing, wiretapping etc to try to intimidate child victims and outspoken adults! There have been some decent JW Elders such as Bill Bowen, founder of the non-profit Silentlambs, now shunned by JWs.  Read what Christ says at Luke 17:2 of "Little Ones," and the kids’ safety coming first.  See news reports from CBS, NBC, BBC etc at silentlambs.org.  Donations can be by Paypal or sending a check to Silentlambs, PO Box 311, Calvert City, KY 42029.  JWs themselves aren’t free to speak out or they get shunned by those blindly obeying Watchtower which says it is God’s only true organization on earth.  They stand to lose all normal association with JW family members, their families be destroyed.  Though quiet many definitely do appreciate our efforts, pleased too that this is done out of a spirit of loving-kindness, tough for some to hear, true, yet helping to save lives, bring more safety and joy.  So, by all means, please do freely make, mail and leave about copies of this informative letter.  If given a copy at your door, JWs, who usually come in two’s, are told by Watchtower to not read it, but when in their own homes most will gladly read a copy that is mailed to them.  May all readers of good-will enjoy the many blessings of our Father in heaven.  Sincerely And From christianwitnesses.com.

HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO KNOW THE REAL TRUTH? These correct some common misteachings.  Freely and lovingly distribute copies. 1. THE GOOD NEWS. You may have had some come tell you at your doors their Good News that "many now living will never die but live forever in paradise on earth."  Look up 1 Corinthians 15:22 where Paul tells Christians there that all sin and therefore all will die.   The Bible shows not only Paul, but Christ and others said the Gospel or Good News is the resurrection hope, not living forever on earth.  1 Corinthians 15:42 says “So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable; 43 it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; 44 it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body.”  Genesis 3 says Adam and Eve were told they would never die but could live forever in paradise (Eden in their case) and this false information came not from God but the serpent.  People were resurrected on earth and possibly some might be latter, but the Bible directs Christians to strive for and focus on the glories of the starry heavens in fellowship with Christ. 2. THE FUTURE OF HEAVEN AND EARTH. Some note that Ecclesiastes 1:4 says Earth will never end, but not that it is also true that Christ and the Bible say heaven and Earth will pass away although a new heaven and Earth will come. (Read Matthew 24:35; Luke 21:33, Revelation 21:1)  So precisely as Ecclesiastes says, even as generations of humans have come and gone, our planet Earth will also vanish but then be re-created; and in this sense  remains forever.  Read to see that Revelation 19:1 shows a “great crowd” (not a little flock) of resurrected humans are in heaven, not on Earth.  For even more understanding read John 14:2, 3; 1 Corinthians 15:20, 2 Corinthians 5:1, 2; Galatians 1:8, Philippians 3:20, James 1:17.  Earth returned to paradise will be gorgeous but remember that the starry heavens are even more stunning and our Father has “many mansions,” including many other lovely planets, vast systems of stars and galaxies.   3. BLOOD. Read 1 Samuel 14:31-35 which shows God forgave men who ate unbled meat with blood to stay alive.  Emergency transfusions of blood are scriptural.  At Matthew 7:12,  Christ says God wants Mercy not Sacrifice.   God does not want anyone to bleed to death.  Acts 15 says abstain from blood and although originally referring to meat markets, it is not unreasonable to normally go by today due to micro-organisms at time in blood, but for emergency life-and-death situations, read and note these other verses.   Blood expanders like saline solution don't act fast enough to stop women with rapid bleeding after giving birth, people gushing blood after bad accidents etc. 4. OUR DEAD LOVED ONES. Some stress that Ecclesiastes 9:5 says “the dead are conscious of nothing at all,” and indeed when you are dead you are dead with the brain non-functioning or unconscious, but balancing that are other scriptures saying Christians are resurrected as spirits instantly upon death as when 1 Corinthians 15:51 says “Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— 52 in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.” Revelation 19 tells of people in heaven as angels conscious and praising God.     5. GOD'S NAME.  Read Matthew 6:9, Mark 14:36, Romans 8:15, and Galatians 4:6.  Christ says pray to not a formal guessed at name of God but to our Father.  Other apostles similarly say use "Abba" or Dad/Daddy.  We are to call on God's name to be saved in the sense of calling for God's help, not uttering some pronunciation like an incantation.   6. GOD'S NATURE.  Read Titus 2:13 as to who Jesus is.  The Bible speaks of God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit.  They are three different persons one in perfect holiness or what Romans 2:10 calls "divine essence," or in some Bibles “godship” or “godhead.”  The Father is greatest in relative position but all three are equal in being uniquely holy, sharing together eternity, power and substance (holiness).  Some mis-tell that the trinity belief is that the three are the exact same person.  The truth is that only a very few churches teach belief the Father morphs into Christ etc, an idea that is not trinitarian but called Oneness or modalism.   Some misteach God is a person of flesh, but John 4:24 says God is Spirit not flesh.   7. PREACHING. Luke 10:1-7.  Christ says go from a house in one location to a house in another location, not door-after-door.  Note verse 7 closely. 8. PROTECTING LITTLE ONES.  Luke 17:2.  Contrast what Christ says to any group that for example sends so-called "repentant" pedophiles along with unsuspecting innocent colleagues to preach at our doors endangering all our little ones.   If someone harms a Little One, turn him into the police, not any religious groups’ clergy elder heads who for the sake of the group’s "image" quite possibly will tell you not to do so. (Ro 13:1)  Though polygamy is illegal some groups say after death their men followers’ spirits get to have multiple wives, other groups hold secret “spiritual” weddings to live polygamously now.  God made Adam only one wife.  Paul told Christian men to have one wife not wives. (1Co 7:2) 9. BIBLE TRANSLATION.   Read Revelation 22:18, 19 which shows God condemns, for example, when a group adds a guessed at, formal name of God in hundreds of places where no early manuscript has it in the New Testament.   10. HOLIDAYS.  Colossians 2:16.  It says we're not to let others judge us as Christians over celebrating holidays.   Note that angels and shepherds at Luke 2 celebrated Christ's birthday.  Thanksgiving has been celebrated in many lands even before the USA.  God started an annual harvest festival as Leviticus 23:33 and Deuteronomy 16:13 show, and also started a New Year's celebration for Israel. (Leviticus 23). 11. PERFECT LEADER.  Matthew 24:45 shows Christ speaking of a faithful and discreet or loyal and wise servant over Christians.   Christ himself is God's MOST faithful and discreet or wise servant ever.  We can go straight to Christ at anytime instead of a misleading or abusive group of human leaders.  12. PERFECT ORGANIZATION.  God's Kingdom organization including angels is still safely in heaven although by Bible-training and conscience it’s been ruling in the midst of Christians for some 2,000 years.  Paul said there's "one faith" (Eph 4:5) and when he said so there was and still is the one faith.  It’s not some  group that began in 1800s or 1900s but Christianity in the universal or general sense.   Different branches of it differ some in non-essential beliefs but Colossians 3:14 says that there is perfect UNITY from LOVE.  Absolute robotic sameness in all same beliefs is not unity but unChristian Uniformity.  13. FREEDOM IN CHRIST.  Christ grants us great Christian freedom.  Read all Romans 14 and John 8:32.  Instead of being judgmental we allow freedom to differ beyonds basics like at Hebrews 16:1. 14. DISFELLOWSHIPPING. Christians naturally warn others including their children when someone is a bad influence (1 Cor 15:33)  but scriptures also say it’s wrong to formally or unduly judge others. (Jas 2:4-13, 4:12; Mt &:1-5; Lu 6:37)  Christ said families would be split by some doing right or wrong things, but never called for destroying families by severe, lasting shunning.  (Mt 10:34-36)  Christians while on Earth can judge "trivial" things as in business, not formally judge each other or destroy families. (1Cor 6:1)  Paul says the "MAJORITY" at Corinth followed his advice to shun a wrongdoer, meaning that a MINORITY chose not to, and yet he nowhere condemns them. (Read 2 Corinthians 2:6)  15. SHARING LOVINGLY: Freely leave about or mail copies of this as truth sets people free. (John 8:32)  christianwitnesses.com
