The shift in their understanding of the generation that 'will never die' (in the mid-90s) was the beginning of the end for me. I stayed in the organisation for a while after that, but I had no zeal anymore. I started missing meetings more often and I had faded completely by the end of 1997.

Thank you & good video. I am glad you woke up!

I left back in 1985 after 27 yrs of being a JW. No Internet or other ways of researching the organization. But the lack of brotherly love when my husband was disfellowshipped for adultery was enough to raise serious doubts. All my life I had been faithful, even having parts in assemblies and Bible dramas. This exposed the cracks in the foundation, that made me realize they weren’t true people of God. I had also always been bothered by their demeaning attitude of other Christian’s faiths. It didn’t make sense to me that God only recognized one Christian faith. It seemed that many individuals were living by Bible standards and worshiped God and accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. It wasn’t until 2017 that I began to discover the many channels on you tube, where many new truths were revealed. The ARC investigation was absolutely flabbergasting to me, then to discover they had been members of the United Nations. I absolutely couldn’t believe it. With memories of the wild beast and the harlot on its back, specifically being identified as Christendom which encompassed all religions, except JW’s. How pompous could they be? So much hypocrisy in their history, which continues to be exposed as each year progresses. I only wish I had gotten my parents to awaken before they passed away. Good news is that only one of my siblings still remains in. But his only child has left as well. At this point no grandchildren are being raised JW. In fact two of my great nephews attend Catholic School. God has served us well.

Keep it up Robin. I love your talks. Always thoughtful and with great insight.

It is so nice to see other ex JWs tell their reasons why they left this religion. I left too because I also realized the GB was and is just lying to their members.

My wife & I each did 25 years. We never would've dreamed we'd oppose "the org". But we didn't false prophesy...they did.

Thanks for adding your voice. And thanks for leaving because of CSA. I am a victim of it and it means a lot to me ❣️

Thank you for sharing your experience...it's wonderful to see so many fellow Africans waking up ... Can you please do a video on the racism in the organisation in South Africa.. during the apartheid past and present ?

34 years,on assembly,reg pioneer. Thought it was the truth ,woke up. Out since 2007😊

I've often been intrigued by how black South Africans were convinced to join the JW cult when it openly followed the apartheid rules even at bethel where black South Africans lived in separate quarters and had to act like servants to the white bethelites...they had their meals in the kitchen while the white bethelites had their meals in the dining room... Brother Muller of the South Africa branch told it all in his life experience in the Watchtower..but of course they said they were only obeying the government.. something they did not do in Malawi, Eritrea and other African countries where the Governing Body sets up the Jws on a collision course with Government resulting in "persecution".

It is very important to teach oneself that God's way is a Lot better than ONE'S Way ; Way ~ [ * J here in Houston , Texas

Thanks, Robin. I really appreciate your sharing your awakening.

I always wonder if they think about the fallout of their actions. It doesn’t seem so.

Every single day that goes by is one day closer to the Lord's day. If I am still alive when it comes, I will be exceptionally happy to see it, make it or not. Seeing Jesus and the boys will be the Grandeur of His Father's Glorious Day, and have the full surety in His words that He has a genuine longing to resurrect all those that loved Him.

The Robin escaped the cage.

JW upon meeting someone that claims to talk or receive messages directly from god: “Man, that dude is cray-ZEE and totally whacko, get him outta here!” Introduce that same JW to a member of the GB: “It is SO wonderful to meet you”, as they slip him a hundred while giving him the “green” handshake.

Great Job Robin

Thank you for your story.

I'm happy for you that you left. I'm not ex-JW but live in a city where they're constantly knocking on our doors. I decided to do my own investigation and learnt very quickly that it's a cult. And many people are leaving the cult because it's destructive. I still find it hard to believe that people see God in such an unloving way.

Being a JW is the same as doing time ‼️ You were locked up and now you are free

Well done Robin. You did very well to find your way out . I hope your videos will assist others . Keep strong you were correct and now your life will be much better ❤.

Great video upload. *_/Thumbs up/_* Applying to join the United Nations in 1991, which was approved in 1992 as you said. A mere 5 years after an ‘International year of peace’ (declared *also* by the Vatican) in 1986.

Thanks for sharing your story.

Dear Robin You Have My support

The real reason people leave the truth is because they are not sheep like.

you speak very well. I will watch the next video. By the way, I came to realize that divided families were the strongest. And the children with both parents in the WT were the most damaged IMO. I was curious about that at the time.

Thanks for sharing your story. I read Mandelas long walk to freedom and was surprised he was also affected by JWs when his wife got sucked into the cult. Id be interested in your thoughts on this...

I have a question about 1914. According to JWs. Who returned , Michael or Jesus?

That is a wordly thought and YOU were Misled very easily in the wrong crappie direction!😊

WT and UN? No surprise there! why, birds of a feather flock together! (To-get-her)!

Yeah - shocking! It was the csa coverups that made me "ashamed of my religion". I resigned by letter in January.

I need to ask a question. I lost my best friend from high school to the JWs. She tried and tried, but I became a Christian, therefore, the shunning began. Last month, I received a notification that someone just posted a new photo on our high school website. I clicked to see who it was; it was her. Does this mean that she has rejoined the real world and left the organization? Or are the JWs now allowed to do secular things? Thank you in advance!

Seems to me this need to "shun" is simply a reflection of themselves and in that they are really shunning themselves.

Robin, great escape, you are truly one of the brave. Have you asked yourself why does the Watchtower mislead, why are they so controlling and and what is it exactly that is their ultimate desired outcome?

well done. i set up a browser just for jw and research to understand how to combat the jw mindset but like you said lies and the threat of loosing family would over ride every attempt. now i just show them they knowingly lie by asking how many chief princes are there (archangels to us) as dan 10,13 says michael is (one of the princes). point out later that Gabriel is one of the chief princes and if God shouts with the voice of an archangel ,prove its michael not Gabriel. (even though its God the Son)

I love all the witnesses who come onto these pages and try and make a witness to ones who have left this organization led by men who put on their pants just like me 1 leg at a time are y'all counting time, oh wait y'all can just make it up now. So glad I got off that hamster wheel w/the fake prize at the end.

Im no longer a watchtower slave 💜🐑✝️🪔

There's no perfect in any religion right now. My advice is to study the bible and understand it.

Your accent is from South Africa and all this time I thought you were from Newark New Jersey just joking with you on that

They are not JW'S they are watchtower construction workers

You love the world just like judas

I see so many are leaving Jehovah's witnesses....... And I wonder.......???? Have you left Jehovah's witnesses, or Jehovah's WORSHIP.......or BOTH....???? If both, "Then who are you worshipping NOW....????

The outcome of the Flood proved that Noah and his family were the only ones who had the right religion. History shows that Jesus and his disciples were the only ones in their day practicing right religion. And a study of the Bible will prove the same about Jehovah's witnesses today.

The Jehovah's Witnesses have never claimed to be inspired prophets. They've never placed themselves on the level of inspired prophets such as Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Daniel. The Bible was still being written during their days, so Jehovah God spoke to them directly; however, the Bible foretold that the ability to prophesy and supernatural knowledge from heaven would cease once the Bible was completed. (1Corinthians 13:8) They see light when it's God's time to reveal it, and their understanding of scripture increases as time progresses. (Proverbs 4:18) That's why Jehovah's Witnesses adjust their thinking on certain matters.

25 yrs of blasphemy against the Holy Ghost and you leave and you think your ok? Reread God's word.
