[From an active Circuit Overseer] Hello brother and sister, I just had to give you this tremendous update. Brother, you recall my visit with you and the two brothers [from Bethel] who accompanied me. Well I'm happy to report that they have partaken twice in private subdued Remembrance meals and they also relayed to me the utter chaos the headquarters is in. The [Governing Body] is trying to weed out the free thinkers before they exit Brooklyn. They've got spies spying on their spies. What a mess and what a sad state of affairs the goings on at the higher levels of governance. When I hear something I think is of value, I'll be sure to pass it on. Bless you friends.

[From Texas] Hello friends of AnointedJW, I'm a fellow witness and a partaker of Christ. Today me and my entire family got baptized at a YMCA. It’s the happiest day of our lives!  A former elder did the honors so all members of my immediate family are joint heirs with Christ. You see after reading "What Prevents Me" and "Proving Yourself Worthy," a friend and sister said "well." Then we said "ok."  Friends I can't begin to describe the joy we feel after so many years in the [Watchtower] organization where we were taught that we are just friends of God but now realizing we are much more precious than that, we all have a father. My youngest is 11 and he for the last 2 years has been saying to me “Jehovah is my spirit Dad.”  Goes to show "out of the mouth of babes." So in closing, we as a family want to thank you friends for so many encouraging articles and emails, and may our Father continue blessing your work.

[From an active Circuit Overseer] Good Afternoon to All, I would like to just let you hard working brothers and sisters know that if not this Memorial, I'm sure the next will be the turning point in the history of the [Watchtower Bible & Tract Society].  Here's why, every [Circuit Overseer] I know personally or by the grape vine is being confronted with Sonship issues, and the thirst for understanding will have to be quenched or the present arrangement will just implode and collapse in on itself. Because of the new arrangement with the doing away with the [District Overseers], my responsibilities have doubled and at my age I'm not exactly excited about the change, but we will have to let it play out and just wait and see. Your articles on the memorial have really made a significant impact and whoever says differently does not know or are not privy to the inner workings of Bethel Headquarters. So all I can say is continue respectful but also continue being forthright in your message because it makes scriptural sense. I just hope and pray that the [Governing Body] prayerfully considers the information on your site. Take care, I will continue to look you friends up as I move to a different circuit.

Hello all Sons and Daughters of the Kingdom of God. I was recently traveling for work and, as I passed through a small town, saw two elderly Witness sisters outside the Post Office with a stand that was advertising free literature. I felt really sorry for them as I passed by but felt I had a calling to speak to them, so I turned my car around and parked nearby and approached, praying as I went, for the right words to say. I spoke to them about Jesus being the only way to God - the way, the truth, the life, the only means by which we can approach the Father. I spoke to them of grace and what it means to stand sinless before God. They replied with organizational rhetoric, the same rhetoric that I remember, that goes like this - "Saying you’re saved and forgiven of sin is just a way for people to sin as much as they like." I explained that it isn’t like that at all. They have not understood the importance of Romans chapters 5 and 6 and unfortunately they feel it doesn’t apply to them.

In Romans 5 we have words like "justified by faith", "peace with god", "we have gained access through faith into his grace into which we now stand","gods love in our hearts", "justified by his blood", "saved from gods wrath", "reconciled to god", " our gift of righteousness". Chapter 6:1-7 deals with the question of using grace as an excuse to sin. I won’t quote it word for word here but basically our old selves died with Christ and we are a new creation. Yes we sin but we are not slaves to sin. The more we are forgiven, the propensity to sin is lessened. Sin loses its power for those in Christ.

1 John 4:17 has a powerful thing to say. It says "As he (Jesus) is, so are we in this world."  Jesus then and now is glorified, at the right hand of God, clothed in righteousness and it is exactly as we are viewed by God. When Jesus prayed to his father in John chapter 17 he said a profound thing in verse 23,- "You have loved those you gave me, just as you have loved me". YES YES YES, God loves us exactly as he loves the Christ!! I wish all Witnesses would see that this is for them, not an elite little flock.

Getting back to the elderly sisters, I left them with one thought that I pray resonates with their spirit. I asked them, if you sin today and Armageddon comes tomorrow, what is your standing with God? They both said , "we will be destroyed." I said that in the time of the Jews, the blood of bulls and goats would be shed as a covering of their sins and it would last one year until the next day of atonement. My question to the sisters was, "Are you telling me that the blood of Jesus was of less value than the blood of bulls and goats? The blood of bulls and goats lasted a year and yet Jesus blood cannot cover your sin for even 1 day?"

I pray that they will think and seek the truth. I encourage all that have come to the grace of God through Jesus Christ to pray for those in darkness. All my love.

March 27, 2014

Greetings, before I head home [to India] for the Remembrance supper, I want to wish you two the very best. We will be having a private dinner with nothing but believers in the one true destiny for man. My family has started making preparations for the evening and are so excited. So we want to wish you both well, and we shall pray for you as you have always prayed for our families. God keep you both in his embrace. We will be in touch!

March 27, 2014 [Translated from Polish]

[From a sister in Poland] Hello my dear brothers and thank you for your quickly answer for my dilemma. I read this article and many others about our adoptions by God, our Father. We can be sons because we accept and love Jesus and we live his life. It is not difficult if the spirit of God stimulate our hearts and our actions to the love and concern for others like Jesus did. He is our model and we should follow him. The truth is that the knowledge and recognition of Jesus is our freedom to do everything without regard for somebody.

A few day ago I was on a trip with a group of people who "accepted Jesus as their savior". Then came to us beggar and asked us for a few cents, but no one react. One even said that he would not get from us anything and suggested that he wants money for alcohol. Then I imagined how Jesus watched for a poor. I went to this man and I asked him, why does he need the money : " for sth to eat " - he said. I took the "Knoppers," and I gave it to him. He thanked, opened and ate. Does in such a way we should imitate Jesus? Sometimes I'm angry for them who are "followers Jesus" but say one thing and do another things. In these situations, we see differences between sons of God and so-called " Christians".

I thank our God for his son Jesus who looking for lost God's children and he wants bringing them to our heavenly Father. John 20:17, Mat.16:24-27, 25:31-40. And I thank our heavenly Father for you dear brothers that He helped me to find you and for this that I'm not lonely right now. People in this world don't know God love. They need your help. I love you and God bless you. Your Sister.

PS. Once more I thank for translations articles for polish language. (Can I learn English language if I'm 65 year old??? - if God will want to)

What an outstanding response to the brothers question on the Governing Body being ‘rebels’ or more appropriately ‘apostates.’ [Question and Response 3/24/14] It seems that it is only a matter of time before the Watchtower Society crumbles and we would certainly hate to be in the shoes of those leaders and their supporters as the full realization of what they have committed comes to be common knowledge amongst our dear brothers and sisters and all those associated with them and even the world.  What an embarrassment it will be to be one of Jehovah’s Witnesses.  All the other religions that the organization has condemned, will in a sense be glad to see this false prophet who does not teach the correct understanding of Sonship disappear.  And as the rest of religions come to true knowledge of Our Lord along with these victims of the Governing Body they will become victors.  As the Revelation says  “The one who bears witness of these things says, ‘Yes, I am coming quickly.’” “Amen! Come, Lord Jesus.” (Revelation 22:20)  As we can see these events unfolding, it seems it will be sooner than later.

March 25, 2014

Hello Brothers, It's been enjoyable reading about all the ways the brothers around the world plan to celebrate the Memorial this year. I will probably celebrate at home, too. I have just completed reading the Intimate Evening article.

March 24, 2014

Good afternoon, AnointedJW, thank God the Father for your site. I have a friend who turned me on to you and I've got to be frank, this is the good news the world needs because you are so positive in your articles, always hoping for the best but at the same time you don't pull any punches. You tell plain and openly the love Christ has for all of mankind. Your site has brought me and my husband and my two sons closer to Jehovah but what's been the most valuable is our enhanced appreciation for Jesus ministry and the importance of being in union with Christ. So this year we have as a family decided to partake privately so that we can on bended knees if we choose to cry out loud, shout or laugh. This way it's a true communion not a spectacle. So once again thank you dear friends for you intense love for the entire brotherhood.

March 22, 2014

[From an active Elder] Hi dear brothers, I'm an Elder and most importantly a partaker of the heavenly call. I've followed your site for awhile now and have come to appreciate your ministry and efforts to both the flock and to the [Governing Body]. Although it's disappointing that the [Governing Body] did not humble themselves and take you up on your offer to assist in making the change from the two-hope theory to the one true Christian hope in the heavens, but all has not been lost because in the congregation I shepherd, we have a group of partakers and we are able to encourage each other but we know this is not the case all over. This year we will be gathering for the supper at my home because we feel strongly that it should be respectful and honor the intent so that only those who pick up the cup to drink should be present. So we want to thank you friends for your encouraging articles and emails, and please keep delivering positive refreshing spiritual food.

March 21, 2014

[From a former Circuit Overseer] To the Sons of the Kingdom, and all readers of the information provided on AnointedJW, with all due respect, I just concluded a modern day witch hunt to the 3rd degree from brothers from Bethel as to my intentions for this year’s Memorial and it caught me off guard.  But it was a moment I'll never forget because it felt like what people call an out of body type experience where not being ready made me humble enough to have to trust the spirit of truth to speak for me.

You see I've made it public knowledge that I'm 100% in favor of the authentic teachings of Jesus and that the heavens are what every man woman and child should pursue. With question after question about my loyalty to the ‘slave,’ and have I been surfing the internet lately about everybody being sons, and that the earthly hope is a fraud, and am I recruiting other circuit overseers to follow in this line of thinking to create a coo of sorts.  And my first mind was "yes yes yes, thank you Jesus." But I didn't want to supply them with ammunition, so I prayed and then said, “Brother my hope is just that, my hope, Each Christian has to recognize for themselves what they believe and what they choose to except as truth. But as for me and my wife, we believe with everything in us that the goal and purpose of our Lord is to pursue the Kingdom of heaven.”

As proof of such a consecrated belief, I dare to speak to you all this evening. But what I also would like to convey to the brotherhood is that no man has the power of what the spirit has if we just trust the spirit. So after hours of questions and getting nowhere fast, they could not get me and my wife to give allegiance to the ‘slave.’ But they did get us to say “We have respect for all who are placed in their relative positions, but if you challenge us on our absolute devotion and dedication to the Christ, prepare yourselves to be held accountable to the highest courts in the Universe.”

So I guess the lesson of this experience just makes it more and more clear that, just as the 1st century Jews and those who listened to Jesus were thrown out, expect the same today, dear brothers and sisters, and stand faithful to all challenges by mere men believing that they are in harmony with the will of God to persecute you and kill you spiritually. And I guess the side point of the night was that it was the fortifying information on AnointedJW that prepared my heart for this encounter. For myself and for my wife, we love the brotherhood and it's worth the persecution, so chalk this night up as a victory for the good guys, the ones who have white robes! Much love to any and all lovers of the true hope!! Don't you ever stop feeding God's children!!

March 21, 2014

[From a former Circuit Overseer] Hello dear brother and sister, we throughout the continental United States, will be using the "Intimate Evening" article as a united throng of followers of Christ. We have made calls and everyone agrees that the information contained in the Intimate Evening with its appropriate questions will open the heavens with the interchange of encouragement. Friends from Alaska to Puerto Rico will be attempting to bring heaven down. This authentic way of honoring Jesus is long overdue, so that you and most of all we are so blessed to feel the presence of the spirit of truth working in our lives like never before. It almost brings us to tears when we think of the dense darkness, the veil that engulfs the Organization and that if they could only apply the counsel they give to all others to humbly repent and humble yourself that you can be exalted. But I then look at the results of the ministry over the last few years and how many brothers now see clearly the plain teachings of our One True Leader Jesus Christ, so just as love hopes all things, we will continue awakening each person one by one. God the Father has given us a renewed purpose, so to all concerned "we have work to do."

March 20, 2014

[From an active Traveling Servant] [Regarding An Intimate Evening With Jesus] Great article dear friends, the time is ripe so keep going strong!

March 20, 2014

[From a former Elder] Dear beloved brother and sister, you are killing us softly and we love it [An Intimate Evening With Jesus], wow wow wow, such truth should be broadcast to every home on earth. You are so right in saying this is a night for showing solidarity, not for recruitment. A night for increased resolve, not for number counting. We stand ready in our dedication to see this night as the resolution of our union with our Lord and the opportunity to advance his, as you say, "agenda." So thank you and as everyone here and all who call me and my wife say, we can't wait! Oh how we love your zeal and your tireless efforts to bring Heaven down. [Another young brother] says [the Nevada recovery missions] are going really big this year with Catholics and Baptists joining in. So who knows what wonderful experiences will occur. God be with you both.

March 20, 2104

[From a Ministerial Servant] [Regarding An Intimate Evening With Jesus] This really touched my heart and [my sister’s too] so much so we just had to say to all lovers of Jehovah and followers of Christ, check your pulse if this article does not register with your spirit!! Fantastic sentiment of spiritual love shown in the writing, great job!!

March 20, 2014

Hello Family, beautiful memorial article [An Intimate Evening With Jesus]. We are making our humble plans for our own Intimate Evening with Jesus, and we so look forward to sharing the night with all partakers of the true hope for mankind. We will have upwards of 150 gathering together in the same place, but in circles of 25 each so that all can have a share in the night and get to know one another better. But the dinner beforehand will be as one. We are thrilled to be part of the movement back to the authentic ways of our Lord. Love you both, so from my family to you, thank you for this masterpiece of spiritual poetry, God Bless!

March 20, 2014

[From a former District Overseer] Hello One and All, I was on the site when to my delight "An Intimate Evening With Jesus" appears and I must express my total support and my own Amen! I can't wait dear friends to share the evening with faith sons of the kingdom and of course our wonderful Christ himself. I believe this to be the most touching confession of love that I've ever read dealing with this special night. I feel even more of a responsibility to multiply the kingdom interests with more conviction. I'm 62 years old, and I pray I can be in the service of the true message for at least as long as I promoted the two-hope theory. Thank God the Father for his mercy. But back to the article, it's truly a work and labor of love in the way you expressed the intimacy of the night. So thank you from the bottom of my heart.

March 20, 2014

Such a beautiful article [An Intimate Evening With Jesus] that touches the heart and soul, bringing together all the Memorial articles for this important evening.  We think of the great joy for Our beloved Lord and all in the heavenly realms who work with him as they witness each of us stand together, with one message of heartfelt gratitude and love, showing the shackles of manmade beliefs are long gone in our lives.  As mentioned “Let us leave behind those who breathe threats against our open confession of union with Christ”, a most true statement, for their threats cannot break this allegiance we have with Christ.  Man’s destiny is spiritual goals and we can  respond to them openly without hindrance now.   What a loving provision this site has been to develop an anticipation through these articles with a true heavenly understanding and no doubt with more to come. This could be the beginning of a greater understanding of heavenly things in the future if the Father wills.  What a glorious future awaits those who are in union with Christ.   We are looking forward to the evening as never before…. And yes… AMEN

March 17, 2014

[From a former Elder] Greetings to all truly free sons of God. We all enjoyed the article One-Eyed not because of the shame of the Elders and the [Governing Body], but not letting their actions keep us from accomplishing our commission to make disciples and do it as VICTORS and not victims. Well let me just say we will be having a beautiful Remembrance Supper of about 22 partakers forming a giant circle and each of us will have an opportunity to share their hopes and dreams and just opening up our imaginations. I believe the fellowship is the key to the evening because of it's strengthening effect to not let up, so with a simple meal and the passing of the emblems, we want our Lord Jesus Christ to hear the united voices of appreciation and gratitude for the gift of everlasting life in the Kingdom of the heavens. Make your plans now dear friends wherever you are, this is a night for those who want to follow the Christ no matter where he goes. May Jehovah bless your efforts and all who are supporting the ministry of increase of the sons of God.

March 16, 2014

Dear brothers, While reading your article Entering One-Eyed, I could not help myself but to be on the verge of tears.  I told myself, "What is this information?" I felt the spirit of the article is entering my heart. I felt more than the usual emotions.  You have shown great tolerance and exceptional understanding to our [Jehovah’s Witness] brothers, as they are being led by the Faithful & Discreet Slave or the Governing Body (based on the new light).  May we become ultimate VICTORS in the faith, not succumbing to the pressure of becoming an atheist.

March 15, 2014

[From a former Elder]  Greeting dear loved ones, the One-Eyed article speaks to why we need more brothers taking the lead who truly understand what Sonship, and the partaking of Jesus really means and why the hired man standing in place on a Son will mistreat the sheep in his care. You see, what we learned quickly in Reno [Nevada] and now spread out all over the states, is that the more congregations row together, the better it is for peace and harmony where everyone "gets it." They honor the Christ and his beautiful uplifting ministry along with Paul's hard work of trying teach the babes in the truth back then that we are one body, one congregation not two, and definitely not divided in pressing toward the upward call. Abusive behavior has no place in the body of Christ. Don't give up friends. Live your lives with eternity in mind and when we can put off this body and put on the one fashioned after our Lord, all of our struggles will have been worth every mistreated moment. Love you both, keep up the fight. And now this, we are growing daily.

March 14, 2014

[Regarding Entering With One Eye] I am so overcome with emotion and tears. Thank you seems not enough to express how I truly feel. Your article was like getting a hug, thank you! It will reach many like me and they will sob with gratitude.

March 14, 2014

Another great article that moves us to action [Entering With One Eye].  While so many are hurt from the actions of religious organizations, they are victors because Jesus’ yoke is kindly and light, not the oppressiveness dictated by men.  We all have our scars and we all have our stories that will fade into insignificance once we realize the true eternity that awaits us. What a blessing for all these victims, who shine as VICTORS, and outshine their oppressors. Truly, we see the hand of God in the arrangements of this site. How it moves from the simple mindedness to the very deepest consciousness of being.

March 13, 2014

[From a former Elder in New York] . . . Me and my wife discussed the situation and decided that it would be more in harmony with Jesus teachings if I stepped down out of faith than be put out for being in opposition to the beliefs. So thank you brothers for providing a solid foundation and a place where real honest evaluations of our cherished beliefs could be examined.
. . .
Evening dear friends, I'm so excited I forgot to introduce myself. I'm a former elder in a local congregation in New York. My wife also has removed herself from the pioneer ranks after some 29 years. The real convincing point is when you talk about Jesus with a boldness, the expressions on their faces spoke volumes as to the disdain they have for his authority over the heavens and the earth. Your articles praise his ministry and promotes power to the individual and that is a BIG problem for the [“Faithful and Discreet Slave”]. But as a united marital union, we say to you friends, bring it on, because Christ has begun ruling since 33 C.E and this you've made very clear to those who enjoy new wine! Blessings and strength to you brothers and to all who chance to receive the truth you prepare through the power of Jesus Christ.

March 13, 2014

Hello there all born again, saved by grace, heaven bound, children of God. I used to be one of Jehovah’s Witnesses. I cannot claim that I had a divine revelation that led me to my current state of grace but I can say without a doubt that God never left me and he reached for me and said "You are highly valued, you are mine, I love you, I want you as my son". Let me tell you my story.

I grew up in a Witness family. My mother and father were contacted by Witnesses in the 1950's and became members of the Organization soon after. Both my parents grew up in broken homes due to horrible family circumstances. The organization must have seemed like a loving family to them, for the first time in their lives. I think that was an attraction. These two broken people brought 4 children into the world and into the Organization. I was the youngest of the children. In turn, I brought up three children into that culture. I was once a Ministerial Servant for a while and I know that I had the love and respect of many brothers and sisters in the congregation.

My wife, a baptized Witness, left me for another man around the year 1999. I was all of a sudden a single dad in desperate need of support. At that time no Elders from our congregation ever went to my wife to have a meeting to see if they could return her to the congregation, or perhaps help restore her faith, or perhaps take steps to disfellowship her if she was non repentant. (She is still in "good standing" in the organization, although has never gone back). I remember pleading with elders from the congregation to come and pray with me and my children because we were so badly in need of spiritual encouragement. Months went by and no shepherding call - NOTHING. I was still going to meetings and around that time I heard one of the elders give a talk about the responsibilities of the Elders as Shepherds. That was the end for me.

It wasn’t long after that I stopped attending meetings. Two years later I started a relationship with a woman that I love and started living with her. I acknowledge that I was not living according to God's purpose and that I could have made better choices. As soon as the elders heard of my situation they tracked me down and had me disfellowshipped. I found out that I was disfellowshipped four weeks after the announcement.

Did God abandon me? Was my sin too much for God to handle? Was I lost for all time? Was I still loved? I want all to know that God loved me, always. Through my time as a Witness. Through my time of family distress. Through my time in sin. Through my confusion - He never forgot me and He had restoration plans for me. The Father has delivered into my life Christian people that have encouraged me, taught me, inspired my curiosity, revealed to me the love of God and the finished work of Jesus on the Cross. I can now say that I have freedom in Christ. I am free in the knowledge that God has an eternal plan for my life, both here on earth and in my eternal home in Heaven. I am free in that God sees me as sinless. When you feel this, your propensity to sin is reduced, and your ability to turn from sin is increased.

I was taught as a Witness,"who would want to live in Heaven? Earth is the destination to which we must aspire". Let me tell you that when you realise that the heavenly calling is yours, all you want to do is be in the presence of the Father and his Son and live in Sonship. To all Witnesses who look at this site, there is a freedom that awaits you that you cannot even imagine. Please know that God loves you apart from an Organization and He is calling you to a greater destiny than you have ever imagined. Trust Him and come to Christ. He is the door. He is the way, the truth, the life. All my love.

March 11, 2014

[From a former Circuit Overseer’s Wife] Good Day brothers, my husband usually writes, but I wanted to personally say to the brother and sister who went through the ordeal with the bad shepherds [Leaving as Victors, Not Victims], trust me when I tell it's occurring way too much in the organization. When we served in the circuit work, publisher after publisher had a horror story that just cut like a knife. So we feel for you and will keep you both and all true lovers of Christ and our awesome Father in our prayers. To the authors of the site, thank you for the helpful suggestions on various ways to have an authentic supper in Remembrance of our Lord. With Agape' love and affection, [our] family wishes nothing but further success in Bringing Heaven Down so all may attain the prize of life as Victors!

March 11, 2014

Your ministry has been life changing for me. I have come to understand my true relationship with the Father and belonging to the Christ. The articles on your website encouraged me to reread and reread the Greek Scriptures with close attention. As a result I have a deep conviction, I am anointed with the joy of the glorious heavenly hope. I am forever grateful for you helping me open my eyes. Between my husband and myself, we have a couple of families we regularly visit and have Bible discussions about our heavenly hope. Often times we use your articles as a basis for our discussions. This has been very rewarding and we look forward to having these families come to our home to celebrate the Lord's Supper in April. May the Father continue to bless you and your ministry!

March 10, 2014

Hello, "Leaving As Victors, Not Victims", again, this just about says it all! Well done for being so honest and bold! I am beginning to read and understand Jesus' words now in a whole new light and meaning for mankind.

March 10, 2014

Hello family, the Victim-Victor article sadly speaks to a lot of us, many not exactly like the brother and sister in the article, but the wrongs done to us by those who are supposed to be caring for the flock. Thank you for posting such a fine example of what is possible if you keep your eyes fixed on the things above and not on men. We remain ready and steady in the doing of God's incredible will as we approach another Memorial of our Lord. I know you two must be cooking up something beautiful for us all, so we extend to you are prayers for the Father’s spirit to rest upon you both in the spiritual season.

March 8, 2014

[From a former Overseer] The pressure is mounting, so we all must know what season were into. That's right, Memorial season. I've been receiving phone calls by brothers at various branches and from headquarters about my knowledge of the authors of AnointedJW and if I had any participation in its running and/or postings. My first reaction was, WHAT? You dare get so personal in my private life and my worship with my God and Father. You have the actual nerve to question my service of over 60 years of faithful service? Dear brother, before I answer you, by what authority do you prevail upon me to answer such probing questions? If you answer by the authority of men of any sort, let me assist you now before you fall deeper into gross error. My freedom as a son of God can only be asked and answered in the spirit and only discerned by the spirit. Now dear brother, are you qualified to take on such a responsibility. After which, I just heard a dial tone. Friends, now is the time appointed by our Father. Don't let golden opportunities to give a witness pass you by. Take a firm stance that's deeply rooted in the Christ or in other words, deeply rooted in TRUTH. Keep your wits about you under test and stick together as brothers in Christ.

March 8, 2014

[From a current Overseer] Dear brother and sister, let me just say, you have got the [Governing Body] on the run! Watch out, be wise at every turn! I have put my reputation on the line in backing your character so do me proud!

March 8, 2014

[From the Philippines] Dear Brothers, Good evening. Thanks for attending to my questions about the Memorial [Question and Response 3/5/14] and baptism [Question and Response 3/4/14], as well as publishing my email. I really find your articles refreshing, assertive yet respectful.  May the grace from above continue to pour on you and your craft. Gratefully yours.

March 7, 2014

[From a former Elder] Dear brother and sister in Christ, thank you both for your thorough article showing the vast contrast of the 1st century way of honoring our Lord with the way it's done these days [A Tale of Two Suppers], excellent brothers! Also the baptism debate [Question and Response 3/4/14] is also food for thought, something that I'd never considered to that degree, so I will have to meditate on the information a little more. You guys’ insight is truly far ranging and I and many others here applaud your wisdom and humility in doing the work of "Going therefore and making disciples...teaching them to observe all the things Jesus had commanded them (Matt.24:19,20). May Jehovah God the Father of us All keep you strong.

March 6, 2014

[From a former Circuit Overseer]  Hello brother and sister, I'm a bit rushed tonight but I'm really in awe of the simplicity of God's Word, when seen through the eyes of Jesus. I feel at times embarrassed at how blind I was, so thank you for your courage to do and say what's been missing and that is TRUTH.

March 6, 2014

[From a former District Overseer]  Dear brother and Sister, your words resonates so loudly and deeply within my spirit. Although you may not hear from me and or my wife on a frequent basis, let me reassure you in the most glowing of terms that I believe whole heartily in the efforts and methodology of your mission that has become our mission. It is with your enlightening article that many of us are now worthy of the cup we drink in union with our dear Lord. The Tale of Two Suppers has given me a sound template to discuss with the brothers near and far with the hopes that a rise in courage will sweep through the core of the Organization, it's publishers.  I for one, in handling congregations, I'm much more understanding, tolerant and most of all openly supportive of those who don't just profess but are willing to confess union with Christ. Let us continue in this Acceptable Year to proclaim without fear the plain and open teachings that our King and Leader proclaimed 2000 years ago.

Hello AnointedJW, it's a joy to read uncommon sense in that what you present would seem obvious but because of the "veil" that you mention, quite a bit of the masses don't yet see that the WAY to LIFE is the TRUTH Jesus presented. So me and my 3 teenage children are with you brothers in the plain teachings of Jesus. And thank you for your ministry tips and emails because I was a pioneer for 16 years so these ministry suggestions are really helpful. And if I can be perfectly honest with your readers, I believe fear is the biggest hang up from many others realizing their own Sonship with God. I mean, let's be real, as long as you view those men in New York as the exclusive channel of Jehovah, you will ignore the truth of the message of Jesus. I know, I know, I'm going on and on, but I just want to say we appreciate your hard but thorough articles and experiences.

[From a former Elder] Dear friends, the comparisons in the Tales of Two Suppers drives home the differences that we hope and pray one day will be honored not just by the [Governing Body] but also the entire world. Stupendously written article!

March 5, 2014

A Tale of Two Suppers is superb.  It is so obvious to see the correct understanding of these Scriptures, yes such ‘blatant disrespect’ of the Governing Body as they mislead the congregations.  It truly is an offense to Christ Our Lord, and literally makes you feel sick thinking of the occasions at the Kingdom Halls. We pray that all who are Sonship conscious will take a firm stand against this offensive occasion. How the heavens will rejoice as each of us stand together and break free from the clutches of a man dictated Memorial that dishonors Christ.

March 3, 2014

In reading the last [Question and Response 3/2/14] that you wrote, I am moved to write of the need to support this ministry that you have started. As a former [Jehovah’s Witness], I would spend 5-10 dollars a week for literature  and give to the needs of the congregation. I did this in not knowing the wrong teachings of [Watchtower Bible & Tract Society] but out of a pure heart and I feel Jehovah and Jesus used me to answers others prayers because of my faith and trust in him.  Now that I have come to know the simple truths of Jesus teachings, why should I not give support to this ministry? It demands far less than the [Watchtower Society].

I am embarrassed for myself and others that we have failed to see this simple need. With the interest that you have created, if we only gave to you less than a dollar a month your needs would be provided as you provide such wonderful food for us. 'The worker is worth of the wage.' If it doesn't come from us, Jesus will use another. I though want the Joy in being a part in helping what I can. Take Care.

March 1, 2014

[From a Colorado Recovery Mission] Hey Family, we hope all is well with you both.  We have been of course keeping up to date with every word written and have been so moved by the expressions of former Witnesses and even active ones planning such great Memorial Suppers. For us, we are going to have two services because of the outstanding amount of believers from in the missions and their relatives who want to declare and confess their stand in Christ together. So who’s to say how many we will have attending, it should be at least 1200 combined. And we have decided to have a Mexican dinner because it's easy to make and it goes along way for so many. Then of course because it's a rehabilitation facility, we will have grape juice and matza bread all being donated by a big grocery chain. So we are pumped up and excited for all these guys because they have taken the RFC [Rehabbers For Christ] to a whole other level than we had in Los Angeles. We believe this is the Acceptable Year to get things right with God and to change the world, so keep doing your thing and we definitely will keep plugging away. Love you both for so many eternal reasons.

[From the Philippines] Hi there. Just chanced upon this site after clicking a link in the Jehovahs-witnesses.net. Honestly, I felt the sincerity and wisdom from some of the articles I just read, including those about Memorial Partakers, 1914, and the [Governing Body]. I found it relevant to read those articles as we are nearing the Memorial commemoration. More meaningful and enlightening articles to come!

February 27, 2014

In the Question and Response today [2/26/14], you said this: “For example, the Governing Body claims that the 24 elders (Revelation 19:4) and the 144,000 (Revelation 14:1) are the same group viewed from different perspectives. (The Watchtower, January 1, 2007, page 26, paragraph 10.) How can they come up with such a ridiculous interpretation?”  I wanted to share with you my own research on this topic and to say that the Bible does not support this interpretation. Very simply, Revelation 14:3 says: “And they are singing what seems to be a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders, and no one was able to master that song except the 144,000, who have been bought from the earth.”  The group singing is the 144,000. They are singing, in part, before the elders, thus the elders must be a different group of people, not one and the same as the 144,000. May you have peace.

February 26, 2014

[From Australia] Thank you for sharing this email service. I look forward to every single one that comes in with your auto service to my email box. Every single person that writes in has their own personal experiences and also encouragements, now coming in from all over the world. It has been a real eye opener for me. The latest email "From a Ministerial Servant in Southeast Asia," was in particular very encouraging and helped me appreciate the "WHOEVER feeds on my flesh" quote. The "WHOEVER", helped me to see this and to read this as exactly what Jesus said, for everyone! Many Thanks.

February 26, 2014

[From a former Circuit Overseer] Hello One and All, I've been a little under the weather but thanks to Jehovah I'm doing much, much better, ready to take to the streets to proclaim the Acceptable Year and to help all of my brothers and neighbors to be about our Father's business with an urgency. I will be having a very personal Memorial supper this year. There will be probably 8 of us and what makes it so special, the other 6, including my wife of course, will be brothers and sisters who had been talked out of their hope either recently or had stop partaking some years ago. Yes, I'm making a wholehearted effort to restore the love these wonderful children of God once had and what better way to do it than to start with an Evening with Jesus. My wife says that she hopes she receives the evil eye from friends just so she can give a defense for her beliefs. Oh yes brothers, she's a fireball! Well we look forward to the remaining Memorial articles that speaks to the beauty of our Lord’s life. You two have done such powerful spiritual works and so our prayers continue in full to our Heavenly Father for you to remain humble and remain focused on feeding the many.

February 25, 2014

[From a Ministerial Servant in Southeast Asia] Greeting Brothers! I'm Jehovah Witness from Southeast Asia. What a great article in "Waiting On Jehovah"! Before I find this website, since a long time I have realize that EVERY believers should take part on Memorial Supper (not only for 144.000). If we read John 6:53 with a clear mind, we will understand this:

“So Jesus said to them: “Most truly I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in yourselves. WHOEVER feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has everlasting life, and I will resurrect him on the last day; - John 6:53,54

In the old times, we Jehovah Witnesses believe this verse applied for 144.000. But consider this: (1) The context shows that Jesus talk to Jews who argue with him. So, from my opinion, it's really weird if Jesus talking about salvation to Jews, but he applied his speech to other group of people (144.000). One logic conclusion is, Jesus talk salvation to EVERYONE. So EVERYONE who need salvation must "eat the flesh dan drink the blood". Later, Jesus shows that this is symbolized by bread and wine in Memorial Supper. So EVERYONE who need salvation must eat bread and drink wine in Memorial Supper. (In the recent times, we believe this verse mean that we must have faith on Jesus. Of course we must have faith on Jesus, but one way to show our faith is by eat bread and drink wine in Memorial Supper. It's same like baptize: of course, after repent from our sin, we dedicate our self to Jehovah and Jesus, we do this in our heart and in our life's way. But one way to show this is by getting baptized.) (2) As you mentioned, the verse said "WHOEVER", so it's applied for EVERYONE, not only for 144.000.

But I'm afraid to share this understanding to other brothers, because they will accuse me as an apostate (because this will shake one of our basic faith). But now, how joyful to know that many of my brothers around the world realize the same thing! It's really encourage me, that I'm not alone!

I believe, all of us want to make this organization better. It's time to change this organization. Jehovah give us logical ability to think. Learn bible with open mind, with freedom to think, not to controlled by some man. Don't afraid to examine the truth, because the real truth will stand firm against every test. Get the plain and open teaching of Jesus. Keep on this great work, brothers! We brothers and sisters around the world really love you!

Also, I'd like to inform you that I had resign from my position as Ministerial Servant (MS) in my congregation. I do this because my conscience told me to do that. I cannot told "teaching of man" anymore from the podium in my public talk. I cannot share many teaching that I know isn't right. Not all teaching, of course, but many. So I think this is the best choice. But I'm happy to do that, because in our pure service, as you will agree, we didn't look for human's acceptance, but Jehovah God and Jesus Christ. I'll try to share the truth step by step to other brothers in my congregation, especially, for my family. Thank you brothers. Warm regards.

February 25, 2014

Thank you brothers for you response to the question I made. [Question and Response 2/22/14] I have read it like 10 times to understand our Father's love for his children. Since I got baptized as a Jehovah's Witness, I knew that the passage of James, about going to the elders to confess, was a wrong understanding from the Watchtower. I have read this verses in many versions of the Bible and I see they twisted the meaning. Like for instance where it says: "anointing the sick with oil." They twisted to: "greasing the sick with oil."  Now I get it why they did this. Thank you again for the valuable articles you have posted. This is indeed the "New Light" we have been waiting for. The light that will never change.

February 25, 2014

Dear brothers: Have you seen the daily text for today? Very few [Jehovah’s Witnesses] are aware of the subtle twist the [Governing Body] uses to support the two-tier Christian class system they perpetrate and perpetuate. Whereas in Gal. 3:16 the seed is one, Christ, they say he is only the principal part. Whereas Gal. 3:26-29 makes all believers one in Christ, heirs, with no one being more privileged than, or superior to, anyone else, the [Governing Boyd] elevates certain ones to being a secondary part of the seed. This is exactly the opposite of the point Paul was making. In fact, a careful examination of Gal. 3:7-9 indicates that believers were not being told that through them blessings would flow to others! On the contrary, they were receiving the blessings promised as a result of their faith in the promised seed, Christ! Heb. 2:16 makes a similar point in connection with Christ" High Priesthood to Abraham's seed. Again, this may be a good time to share this with the brotherhood. Your brother.

February 23, 2014

I just read your latest Q&R [Question and Response 2/22/14] and you have such a fine way of helping one to see things in our Father’s eyes. Yes we are all sinners and we need to know that we are forgiven by our Father. As he says 'our sins will be white as snow' Isa 1:18.  Your answers remind me of a time that one in the congregation came to me and told me that she did not feel that they were forgiven because of what was done. I shared with her ‘how Jehovah forgives and forgets. But what you just told me is that you believe Jehovah doesn't forgive and forget. You are calling Jehovah a liar, you need to let go of this good for nothing slave attitude.’ And as we talked I could see the peace of God come over her as his beloved child. Your words are so fine...how they make you SHINE!

February 23, 2014

Dear brothers, I've been reading the article Waiting on Jehovah over and over and I'm in total agreement with every single word of it. I've been in association with Witnesses for over 40 years and if there is a more nonsense statement that can be made I'd love to hear it. All who accept the leadings of the spirit must act on what's been given us. I've partaken for the last 28 years but it's only been in the last couple of years that I truly feel a real sense of a consecration to the Father’s will. Once I threw away the select few receiving an invite to Heaven, my spirit and my heart felt more in line with Jehovah and our Lord, and I also believe until you come to recognize that the true hope of the heavens is for all, you could be partaking in a disapproved manner. We need this website in ways I can't even express in words, thank you brothers!

February 23, 2014

Waiting on Jehovah is so right on and empowering to the Brotherhood in our service to our Father and Christ. Take Care.

February 22, 2014

We loved the emails, so great to hear of the activities of these brothers and all the arrangements that are being made for the memorial celebration. [Regarding Messages From Overseers], What wonderful news to hear many of our brothers in responsible positions taking their stand for Jesus and our Father, showing a true brotherly love for the many under his oversight and those who are fellow overseers.  What courage, certainly a good reflection of our Christ and all who take up their torture stake.  These brothers see the urgency.  We certainly know the organization has placed themselves in opposition to the worldly governments by their wrong interpretation of the kingdom as being a government and at any moment if the Father wills, the governments will react to the threat that the organization has unwittingly promoted, so brothers take heed NOW!!

February 22, 2014

[From a current Circuit Overseer] Good Afternoon, I wanted to sincerely congratulate you two friends for your display of courage in the latest article Waiting on Jehovah. I believe it speaks to the heart of every publisher’s level of maturity and calls into question to whom are you really serving. As I speak to the coordinating brothers and to the publishers out in the ministry, my personal message I sound down is to let no man be the master over your faith because faith is a gift of the spirit, let no other human snatch it from you to dominate you and ultimately usurp your free will. I believe if we want to, we can change the overall thinking in the Organization, I see signs of change in almost every Congregation I serve,  the attitude of both young and advanced in age, the relationship of having a Father who happens to be God makes them feel more responsible thus becoming more fearless than in recent memory, not rebellious just more assertive. As you have stated brothers, Jehovah has spoken through his Son, need Jehovah say more? Remember our Father is not to be mocked!! I encourage all if you have not yet read the latest article, read it please and then meditate on its message and the duty we have if we honor both our Father and His glorious Son Christ Jesus. Love the spirit you show.

February 22, 2014

[Regarding Waiting on Jehovah] I liked Hebrews 1:1,2. The past vs the current. We need to accept the son as spokesman and not seek prophets.

February 21, 2014

[From a District Overseer] Dear brother and sister of boldness in faith and extraordinary love for the congregation of God. I write you to inform you that due to the pressure to coordinate many of this year’s District Convention parts and to give the keynote address and other talks, I'm compelled by the spirit of truth to do the pleasing thing according to accurate knowledge, and that is to relinquish my duties as District Overseer.  And it's funny or ironic in that the various convention overseers were expecting it and wondered how I lasted this long.
But what I want to encourage, if I may, is that all remaining elders on any and every level of oversight give attention to whom they are obeying. Is it God or is it men and do you as one looking for eternal life truly believe what's being taught or are you going along with the ‘chosen view of a selected few.’ I strongly suggest, dear brothers, to take a close and careful look with fresh eyes at the plain and open teachings of our true leader and if what Jesus plainly stated is different from what imperfect men write, always and without fear trust Jesus no matter the consequences of contrary talk or the threat of expulsion.
My head is being held high not by my own strength but by the power of the spirit and putting my confidence in the comforter, I for one brothers, can no longer waste another second by the so-called ‘Waiting on Jehovah’ technique of worship. It's time for me and my wife and my children to live Christ out loud. Now do I still love my sleeping brothers? Of course I do, but the best way to show my true desire for these misguided ones to have eternal life, and find hope in the pursuit of the real life, is by setting the example and truly drinking the cup of our Lord to the full. I'm on a mission also dear friends and that is to Bring Heaven Down.

February 21, 2014

[From a former Circuit Overseer] Greetings to All, I just wanted to let you know briefly how much I enjoyed the Waiting on Jehovah article to the point where I started making calls to branches all over the world posing the question to these overseers and coordinators just what it means the expression to ‘Wait on Jehovah.’ So far it's been, to a man, to wait means to wait for the [Faithful and Discreet Slave] and that type loyalty is dangerous. But I left them something to ponder from now on, that's for sure! Anyway, thank you friends for your empowering as well as unifying spirited information. True Sons of the Kingdom know that the kingdom doors are wide open and there is plenty room for more. God bless your work and all who are invested in the preaching and saving message.

February 21, 2014

Praise The Lord! This new article [Waiting on Jehovah] should be framed, dipped in gold and put into the hall of fame for "most outstanding truth told." I mean you put the smack down and said what has needed to be said and what so many at one time or another have thought, especially when coming to a different conclusion on a scripture’s meaning. I pray all Jehovah’s Witnesses in the entire association read this article. Love you from my heart!!

February 20, 2014

[From a former Elder] Dear brother and sister, thank you for setting forth truth once again in the gem Waiting on Jehovah.  It bears constant reminder that we as CHRISTIANS have an obligation to act without hesitation when the spirit of God bears witness with our spirit. The only organizational part is how do I, as an individual, get what's been given me into the minds and hearts of those I meet in my day to day activities. So thank you for your bold presentation of a biblical truth. Yes Jesus has spoken and that we have been given instructions to wait is to disrespect and or disobey those commands handed down over 2,000 years ago. Bless you friends and many brothers and sisters around the world appreciate the time and effort you give to the ministry of awakening and reconciliation to the plain and open teachings of Jesus.

February 20, 2014

[Regarding Waiting on Jehovah] Wonderful article, we think exactly the same when ‘waiting on Jehovah’ was used, it is a universal statement then.  A few government departments probably took note of their statement in the November Watchtower also. “Waiting of Jehovah” is a statement we always hated in the organization, virtually telling you to get back in your box and keep quiet.  Tell it like it is, they are a selfish mind controlling group of men who fear for their positions instead of the disapproval of their Creator.  They have disrespected the freedom of religion, of choice and to speak the truth.  When they print to follow their directions “whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not,”  that is scary and dangerous.  Get out brothers, stand up for the truth of Jesus message, it is the only correct and true thing you will ever do in your life.

February 20, 2014

Hey my friends, we as a family too are looking forward to the Evening Meal in behalf of our Lord. The brother's experience has got us thinking about finding space for our ever growing spiritual brotherhood. One thing’s for sure, all will be confessing union with Christ. So when we get our plans together, I will let you friends know what's up. In the meantime take good care my brother and sister.

February 20, 2014

[From a former Elder] Dear brother and sister, I'm so looking forward to the approaching season for declaring with family and friends our deep appreciation for Jesus’ superlative life and his courageous death and what has been offered each of us in the sacred secret. I spoke with [the former Elder who sent the below email] and he told me of his plans which were so encouraging. What we intend to do is to go to a local restaurant that we have already booked in advance, we don't want to leave anything to last minute arrangements.  We plan so far on having maybe between 20 and 30 in our private sectioned off area so as to not have onlookers. We want this as the brothers had in the first century. So thank you friends for your expressive articles that we plan on sharing as one united family in Christ. May our Father continue increasing the sons of the kingdom.

February 19, 2014

[From an former Elder] Hello Friends, we are busy getting preparations done for the upcoming Memorial Supper and it's our goal to have the most uplifting Remembrance of our dear Lord we've ever had. We are going over [a current Elder’s] house because of the available room he has on his patio where we can seat between forty or fifty sons of the Kingdom, have a meal, then two of our brothers who play guitar will bless us with songs and then get into a free flowing night of spiritual contemplation of our future lives with Christ. I can't express in words how the buzz and excitement has consumed our conversations lately. We wish all who have doubts to not be afraid to take in the information you dear friends have so graciously provided. And I say this not to puff you brothers up, but it's true, and I'd be lying if I didn't say that what you have clarified and broke down so that my children can clearly get the point has been a true gift from Jehovah by means of His spirit through Christ. So as a brother in Christ, I thank you all, correction, no, WE thank you!

February 15, 2014

Thank you very much for the hard work in providing spiritual guidelines [in Question and Response 2/12/14b]. By means of bible research, meditation, prayer and not the least your aid, I feel emancipated from mental and emotional “hang ups” in the matter. I’m now looking forward to celebrating the coming Memorial with friends and relatives. Again thank you for your support!!

February 14, 2014

The email you just answered [Question and Response 2/12/14b] was exceptional and we think it will affect a lot of brothers. We love being associated with you both and our celestial family as you teach and guide us in our journey.

February 14, 2014

Just read your response to the brother [Question and Response 2/12/14b] and it is so refreshing how you put things in prospective from our Father’s view and purpose for us and as to where we are now.  From His point of view, we are just handicapped and disadvantaged children (low bar) that keep soiling our diapers.  And I would like to say to all parents, our Father is first and foremost a parent, and then a king, ruler, judge. So to all that have children, we do not want to have limited insight of the mind of our Father and the Christ.  How quick are we to show understanding to our children or forgive them. James 2:13 "Mercy exults triumphantly over judgment," yes is there anything that will prevent you from showing mercy to your children? Many times I have heard by the elders to erring ones. 'We have no choice in this matter but to disfellowship you.' What they are really saying is, 'If we could chose we would not do this. But Jehovah demands it to be done'. They blame God for their actions. Your words are so heart endearing to us of our Father and Christ's Love.

February 11, 2014

[From a former Elder]  Hello Dear Friends, I'm so proud of the uplifting articles and [Questions and Responses] dealing with our Lord and the unquestioned disrespect occurring in the congregations of [Jehovah’s Witnesses] and backed 100% by the [Governing Body].  What a shame. But for those who have awakened to the plain teachings of Jesus realize now is the time to show acts and works of repentance by turning away from sin and by definition this mean going in a different direction so as you've been saying lately "let the reader use discernment." But on more of a positive note the growth of the sons are increasing in and outside of the congregations. And we as former Elders and Circuit Overseers, even some District Overseers, don't want you friends out there to be discouraged by the figures being reported because just in the association of about 10 elders and former pioneers, we know for a certainty that there has been a gain in the Kingdom of over 490 partakers at last year’s Memorial Supper just in the United States alone. So regardless of what numbers reflect, let's continue to rejoice over one sinner who is transferred from death to life. We are excited about the Acceptable Year and we believe we can come closer than ever before in accomplishing our Father's will in "Bringing Heaven Down."  So keep up the pace and let's enjoy our new lease on life. Love you both and all of us in various cities and states send you our prayers.

February 9, 2014

I appreciate your work, and I always read your articles. God bless you.

February 8, 2014

Hi brothers: I fully appreciate your clear attitude against partaking in the next apostate meeting promoted by the governing body on April 14, in which the majority is discouraged to partake in the bread and wine of the Lord's supper. I no longer attend the Watchtower meetings, because I reject what is clearly false.   Though I know that many witnesses are  sincere persons, I don't believe that the governing body wants to do the necessary changes so as  to fit them with the Truth. For those who believe it, I have to say: "don't be ingenuous". In the early 80s, some brothers in Bethel of Brooklyn realized that the two Christian hope does not fit with the teachings of the [New World Translation.] One of them was even a governing body member. After they declared their  view, what was the result? All of them, sooner or later, were labeled as apostates. So, we have to understand that the governing body represents the interests of a corporation, like a business, and not of accurate teachings. If they begin to teach the Truth, the organization will disappear, because it is based on a Lie, which says that Christ appointed the Watchtower Leaders in 1919 as his sole channel. ...Let's go to the Truth, we are children of God through His Son Jesus, so we are free.  The organization had many opportunities. Read its history and wake up. Best wishes, your brother.

February 7, 2014

I just read this [Question and Response 2/7/14-b) and as always your response is Kind and Firm and thank you for clearing up my thoughts as to what you have suggested for the 2014 Memorial [A Memorial of Offense].  Also the brother talked about 1% [of Jehovah’s Witnesses] having an influence, and I believe there was a CIA report that I read that was about what the % of a population needed to create a change and it was less than 1%, so if that is true then it may not take to much to have the [Jehovah’s Witnesses] change the [Watchtower Bible & Tract Society]. Just wanted to share.

February 7, 2014

[From a current District Overseer] Beloved brother and sister, I can't in words express how moved I, along with my wife, have been recently in discussing the last two articles [A Memorial of Offense and Fleeing From Hypocrisy] dealing with the offensive way our Lord has been treated over these many years, years I might add that I contributed to the offense by either the giving of talks or by inviting ones to this travesty of what was intended by Christ. So, for any who are lovers of what is right, now is the chance to make the wrong right. I'm fully in support of the arrangements for celebrating the Evening meal in a joyous gathering of believers in what Jesus Christ's life and death represents. God continue with you as we rise together to change the world by means of the spirit.

February 7, 2014

Excellent article - A Memorial of Offense. I could not agree more! It is time to do the right thing. Even those who do not believe in the heavenly hope, they need to realize that when Jesus said what he said in John 6:53-56, he was talking to a great multitude - a similar multitude like the one he fed with loaves and fish - not just his apostles. This is not a prophesy or pure doctrine but a clear mandate from Jesus. We cannot allow the fear of men to prevent us from doing what is right. I know that this partaking thing is shocking to some brothers/sisters. You are not alone! Verse 61: 'But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, “Does this cause you to stumble?"' I was one of those who murmured to the idea of partaking. A few months ago, me and my wife realized that in order to have Everlasting Life, we need to start partaking. Even my daughter understands this. Jesus said on verse 58 'He who eats this bread will live forever.”' How can I refuse that? Unfortunately, some did not appreciate the invitation - as we used to do in the past. 'At this, many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. Jesus said therefore to the twelve, “You don’t also want to go away, do you?”' Do not walk away from Jesus! Stop refusing his blood and body! Time to wake up!

February 7, 2014

Our prayers will be with you, and we both love the new articles [A Memorial of Offense and Fleeing From Hypocrisy] and we just hope the [Jehovah’s Witnesses] will listen to what you’re saying. God bless.

February 6, 2014

[Regarding Fleeing From Hypocrisy] Your replies are spot on. This brother’s thoughts are very typical of one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, frightened to leave what they think is security but may prove to be there downfall.  They rely so much on the Governing Body it is frightening.  His thoughts seem to give the impression that it was more than his own ideas but that of a few in putting forward the email.  It reminds us of the last song played on the Titanic as it went down.  These men (the Governing Body) are so accountable to Christ for the ones they have blinded and mislead by the crafty acts of the Devil, that is where it comes from. It is sad, very sad indeed.  It is the same as Christ felt when he looked down on Jerusalem for the last time.  We pray that many more will flee to safety and realize that they can worship without an organization.  We have done it ourselves and it is truly a freedom  and relief of not having to give your allegiance to men but to only our Lord Christ Jesus.

Regarding the memorial article [A Memorial of Offense], we wanted to say – You quoted from March 2014 Watchtower publication, “Our Kingdom Ministry,”  “Will this Memorial be our last?”  We are really disgusted that the Governing Body is again pushing a 1975 concept of an end this year (Armageddon).  Brothers and Sisters hopes are being risen falsely, their words of ‘imminent’, ‘close at hand’ and all their words of trickery.  They are doing it again and misleading their flock, giving false expectations in their endeavor to hold the organization together.  We have been praying that they don’t get to celebrate this memorial 2014, enough is enough of their tyrannical rulership over our dear Brothers. Our love to you both.

February 6, 2014

The article ‘A Memorial of Offense’  is a strong message for everybody, particularly Jehovah’s Witnesses.  If people can’t get this most important occasion, it will be mighty hard to understand greater things in the future.  Jesus life and message is the salvation for every man, woman and child, and for us not to act in accordance with his invitation is offensive to our Lord.  Our allegiance is to Christ, (not the Governing Body, or any other people), and allowing ourselves to follow this 1st century occasion with dignity and rejoicing will be a memorable time for all, on earth and in heaven.  This is the first year my wife will be partaking and my 3rd. Last year we decided to go to another congregation and after the talk the brother grilled for information on my congregation and name, there was no welcome or even hello.  Our local elders then made sure I knew that I should have been in attendance at our congregation.  We plan on remembering Our Lord at home this year. Well done and keep it up.

Also, the first year, the brothers told me not to tell anybody that I was going to partake, then one said “no he can tell who he wants to,” and another elder said, “well we don’t want a freak show.” Such a lovely comment to make with the heavens listening in.  We were quite indignant that they should use such words, that is why we went to another congregation, and really was no better.  So we are happy to be at home and cherish the time with Jesus.

[From a Christian Pastor]  Hello AnointedJW and anyone associated with Jehovah Witnesses. I have friends who our [Jehovah’s Witnesses] and I pray to God the Father that they adopt your open minded thinking, and acccept your devoted belief in the afterlife in the kingdom of the heavens. Since last May, I've encourage the entire flock of God to take a peek a your site so that they can be informed when speaking to [Jehovah’s Witnesses]. We are believing with you in your cause and we applaud your efforts and your spiritual wisdom. By the way the Bringing Heaven Down articles are filled with the Holy Spirit and to that I say Amen. Now I have to be honest, I normally don't mettle in other preacher’s web pages but since we all know a Witness and they frequently knock on our doors, I felt it necessary to speak out in the spirit to you to show you much love and respect for you. Bless you Anointed of God and believers in Christ.

February 4, 2014

Great email on the donations.  It heightens our ecstasy of the spirit in giving.  A true reflection of our Father and Brother.

February 4, 2014

[From a former Elder] Dear Brothers of AnointedJW, I recently had the pleasure of enjoying two pivotal moments in my life. The 1st was recognizing my growth as a spiritual man understanding fully that I am indeed a son of the wonderful Father and the same possibility confronts every believer in Christ. The 2nd was my stepping down as an elder. I could no longer teach the earthly hope and it made my physical health for a period of time very bad. But I regained power when I started to eat the spiritual blessing you friends are supplying to the heirs of the Kingdom. I've got to somehow, someway do my part to get the message of, as you declare, the plain and open teaching out there to the friends. May Jehovah our Heavenly Father continue with you brothers!

February 3, 2014

Dear Brothers, I would like you to post this.  To many people, money is there god. They can use money to do good and help others and express love for others. Or they can use it to suppress or control and enslave others like the devil. When we look at the dollar it says "In God we Trust" or it can be read to say "In Love we Trust" and looking at it that way it can be said that it is a Note of units of Love. It makes it so much easier to pay my bills thinking of all the good that is done in paying my bills. It creates jobs for others and helps families and puts food on the table for others. And I want to help make sure that my spiritual food is on the table also, and for that reason, a note of love is being sent to you of [a certain amount] by using the donation link on your Donation Page. May this help you.

EMAILS FROM VISITORS

JANUARY 2014 - FEBRUARY 2014 - MARCH 2014

We have received several wonderful emails expressing appreciation for the site.  Those that are not too personal are published in this section for the encouragement of our visitors.

To those who have sent us emails in support of this work, we thank you, and we want you to know how important your emails are to our entire body of Christ.

 www.AnointedJW.org

January 31, 2014

Hello AnointedJW, I've monitored your site for awhile and not every concept I fully accept but I believe you mean well. And your stressing the teachings of Jesus really is what warms my heart and has motivated me to finally express in words to you all how important your work is and how valuable your writings are. So congrats on your positive effort to Bring Heaven Down.

January 31, 2014

[From a former Circuit Overseer] Dear Fellows in our Lord, The latest serving of spiritual food [Fleeing to Freedom] has a strong exhortation for us all and its direct yet respectful delivery should give all who suffer from mental as well as spiritual abuse the courage to do the right thing, the Christ-like thing, and begin the process in this favorable season to flee to the divine protectors of our faith and indeed let Jehovah take us in. This is one of my favorites because this separates the children who walk by faith from those who walk by sight. May our Heavenly Father make sure the hope within us all. Thank you dear friends.

January 31, 2014

Dear Brothers, the last installment of Bringing Heaven Down – Fleeing to Freedom is very faith moving.  You point out the simple need to trust the Spirit and in knowing that we have the spirit there is nothing lost by trusting the spirit within, but every thing to gain! For without that trust, we are leaning on our own understanding and that is how we got away from Jesus teachings.  It made me think of the time when I left Bethel and one of my overseers told me that he was afraid to leave because of the bad world and the challenge of finding work. I told him that it was sad that he lacked personal self sufficiency. It really made him think about where he was really at. Yes we have to rebuild our Faith and get back to the basics so maybe as Thessalonians said, we really all have had a faith-damaging lie given to us and we will be judged as to how we act when that lie is made known to us. Once again it is truly moving and inspiring the spirit led writing that you have wrote. Take care.

January 31, 2014

Hello brother and sister, I can't begin to tell you how much your site has changed my entire family and the effect it has had on my friends. We all have a freedom in the way we look at church, God and our salvation knowing now how important it is for us to take our lives into our own hands and to preach what Jesus preached. So God bless you both and since I haven't seen my buddy lately, I will believe that he is well. Continue in faith dear friends because our world needs this kind of food.

January 31, 2014

Great finality to the ‘Bring Heaven Down’ series. [Fleeing to Freedom] Who will stand with you? We wholeheartedly stand with you! And we urge any who examine this site to take action immediately and flee with no delay, because the days have been counted and it is now the last warning.  All are poised to bring judgment, so have no part in these archaic associations who are enemies of Christ our Savior.  We all can and will change this world to a peaceful existence with the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth as each of us look to our sonship with God.  You will find peace in yourselves and rest assured the ‘light will get brighter.’  May the spirit of truth be with you.

January 28, 2014

Your work is the most important work that can be done in this time in history. Your communication with me as meant the world to me. I was skinned and thrown about by so called brothers for 20 years. I was lost. The day I found and really started to read your wonderful site changed my whole life. I wish I could do more to help but right now this is all I can do. I will continue to help where and when I can. What a miraculous journey we are all on. I send you all my love and support. Your sister.

January 26, 2014

[From an Elder] Greetings dear brothers, I wanted to commend you on your explanation of the two hope theory in "The Destiny of Mankind." It was very well conceived and hopefully will be read by more and more of our dear brothers. The point made in keeping one’s heart open to the possibilities of the heavens is key in the thinking process. So I thank you friends for your loving presentation of our Lords plain teachings. Many of us are trying to constantly exhort the brothers at headquarters and various branches to examine once again the absolute invitation extended to all by Jesus Christ while on earth, so until I have no more air in my lungs my life will be dedicated to this truly good news of the kingdom. So from all of us to you two bold and faithful stewards, may God the Father bless you both.

January 26, 2014

Hello AnointedJW, I'm pretty new to your site but I really enjoy your cutting edge approach to the scriptures. You seem to honor the Christ in a bold refreshing way with a depth of insight that's also refreshing because the ideas thrown around by the Organization is borderline dictatorship with their ‘my way or the die way.’ And it's time we sons of our Father band together and stop somehow the bully pulpit mentality and be more Christ-like in our behavior. So with warm appreciation and Agape' love, I will continue to pray for you friends.

January 26, 2014

[From a former Elder] Hello dear brother and sister, I'm overjoyed with the Destiny article and the Q&R on the things written.  It has given us all over these United States tools for a more effective witness to all peoples, but especially for [Jehovah’s Witnesses]. So thank you very much. [A certain young brother] is a powerhouse of spirituality and wanted me to tell you that he is forever grateful for your help and direction. We are growing leaps and bounds in the increase of sons for the kingdom, so I know personally that the 600 the society claims can't be correct. So regardless of their report, we are pressing on! Love you both.

January 25, 2014

[From a former Circuit Overseer] Good Afternoon friends, this new article [The Destiny of Man] is a concise way of breaking down truth from blatant error. This is what is needed to teach the Sons of the Kingdom how to explain truth using the scriptures. We as children of light will be studying "The Destiny of Man" later today. So God bless you brothers for the skillful spirit directed work you are doing. May His spirit continue guiding and strengthening you both, and we welcome the Associate Writers to this ministry.

January 25, 2014

[Regarding The Destiny of Man] Wonderful and sooooo timely! Love you guys, we all do!

January 25, 2014

Fantastic article [The Destiny of Man] for all who stubbornly refuse or just can’t get the idea that we are destined to the real life in the heavens and beyond.  We feel frustrated ourselves for the Witnesses we have mentioned this prospect to.  They don’t seem to care about anything else but Paradise earth.  The paradise-like conditions that the earth will eventually reach are so inviting and we all long for the time where there will be no more sickness, pain and sorrow, even death will be gone. But the prospect of eternal life in the heavenly realms beats that hands down. Who would want to stay as ‘pampered pets’ caged on earth when there is an eternity of knowledge and the blessing of seeing the real paradise, Our Lord Jesus and our Heavenly Father? Why continue being so narrow minded with these men, the self proclaimed Governing Body, telling you these ridiculous beliefs. They are not looking at things in a spiritual way, but purely fleshly.  This is what is going to happen, this what Jesus said, this is what Jehovah God said, so we should all get on board and ‘bring Heaven down’.

January 25, 2014

[From Greece] Hello thinkers, I'd like to write few thoughts from the last Watchtower study, about the prophecy of Micah 5:5. Actually I am angry with the arbitrary interpretation of prophecy. Paragraphs 16 to 18 was a delirious interpretation and self-determination for salvation claiming something will happen in the future without giving no information or details. However they only ask, and ask strongly, for submission and blind obedience to what they will say.  I considered it unreasonable and wrong to terrify such a way, all these people, who believe that they will survived with this way.

January 23, 2014

Dear Brothers & Sister(s), I have been reading your articles mostly the [Emails From Visitors]. I look forward every day to checking the Update Log. A little about me, I grew up in the "truth." My father was a Ministerial Servant and when I was about 20, my father was disfellowshiped. That's around the time I left. Fast forward 22 years later, I'm a widowed mom of an 11 year old son. He questioned me about what religion we were and I just told him we are Christian but we don't belong to a church. I personally felt guilty even going into another church that wasn't a Kingdom Hall. About a couple years ago, we decided to start going to the Kingdom Hall and we started studying with a young Ministerial Servant and his wife. Everything was going fine but I always had this nagging feeling that we could not be the only religion to be saved. I could not take the pressure of being told to keep doing more and more. All I wanted was to be able to preach and be baptized, but to jump through so many hoops, not to mention Ministry School which I kept being pressured into joining. I could not take it anymore. That's around the time I found your site and it was a breath of fresh air. Yesterday I sent a text to the couple that I would not take study anymore and I felt a big load off. I'll continue with family study with my son. I still feel like I have to be part of a congregation but very weary about joining any one particular religion. Thankfully your site has been food at the right time. Keep it up! I wish your articles were on MP3 so that I can listen to them at work. But all in due course. With Love your Sister.

January 21, 2014

Dear Brother and Sister, I have read your website since late 2012.  I am a partaker since 3 Memorials ago, and my congregation accepts my anointing despite being in my early thirties.  I am also a regular pioneer and servant. Back in the day, we exchanged emails from a temporary email account, where I was apologetic and cautious. Our last email exchange, over a year ago now, was that I would wait and see. And today I break my silence.

Last Pioneer meeting, the elders must have thanked the Governing Body over 14 times for the new light and other provisions. Probably five times more often than Jehovah and Jesus combined. I think of what Jehovah felt when Moses took credit for a provision of water that came through him, but not by him. I feel a jealousy for Jehovah.

Last Sunday, an over-zealous young elder read with the greatest pride and emphasis that soon the Governing Body may ask us to do things that don't seem reasonable from a human point of view, and obeying means life or death. This equates to requesting blind faith in men, and is a dangerous trend. Also, brothers were taught to pray for the anointed remnant, because the dragon wages war with her. Thus it became habit to pray for the faithful slave. But now the term has changed meaning, and the prayers are only directed toward the Governing Body. There has been a worldwide silence of prayers for the holy ones since the annual meeting of 2013. This saddens me.

Through my personal study, I learned that Ephesians 2:14 is the fulfillment of Jesus words concerning the 'other sheep'. Also in order to make the statement from the Harp of God, 1921 and 1928 that 'Millions now living may/will never die', you have to assume those millions are not anointed, since all anointed are baptized into the death of Christ. And further it means Rutherford believed the Great Tribulation had already started when in the 30's the shout arose 'Behold, The Great Crowd!'  We now know that the Great Tribulation has not started yet. And thus the non-anointed are left without identity. They are neither Great Crowd yet (because the Great Tribulation has not started) nor other sheep (because they are not anointed gentiles). Who are they if they are not part of the Holy Nation? This is a very profound thought. They are lost sheep without identity!

Please look forward to my future emails because now that I have made my decision, there is no time to waste in offering my help.

January 20, 2014

Good Afternoon family, A New Commandment is short but packs a punch! We in the Christian community need to examine the powerful and intense love Jesus had and still has for us today and imitate the fatherly kind of love. Great job and let me give you both credit for the expanding site into different languages and added writers assisting to make the load lighter. The Father and his Christ are truly in your corner, I know from many friend in various states that depend on the spiritual food you prepare, it's always upbuilding and real. So with love from a bunch of us, please keep them coming.

January 19, 2014

I very much enjoyed the article "A Ministry in Tasmania" and as reading it, as they were talking about placing ads in the paper, it would be nice if some of the ads could be posted so I could copy them and do the same thing. Also I would like to share what I have discovered in placing ads in the past. I do not put them in the daily newspapers because of the cost and poor readership. I found the best paper is to put the ads in the weekly free ad papers. Every one that pick one up is going to read the whole thing because they are looking for something. ... Great changes in the web page and looking to do more in bringing Heaven Down.

January 17, 2014

[From Sweden] Hello servants! I am in! Been in the cave for 20 years! You give me some injections of heaven. Let us start to give food to the poor in the right season.

January 15, 2014

[From a recently former Elder] Dear brothers and sisters of AnointedJW, I have over the last year followed your articles and emails that have moved me like never before, to the point where I finally got the courage to partake and start living my zeal for Christ without fear. I was, until two weeks ago, the Watchtower Study Conductor which I did faithfully for the last seventeen years, but my spirit, in continuing to bear witness, said I can't do this any longer, so I step down so I can have freedom of expression in how I live as a follower, not of men but of Christ. The Bringing Heaven Down series is a true calling for all who respect and honor our Lord to live, as you say, out loud. I believe in my heart that what you friends have is a pure motive to get folks in every congregation to open their eyes to the plain and open teachings of Jesus, and push the reset button on why we need, love and adore the Son of God. This latest pearl of high value [Discerning the Time of Inspection] has stimulated a group of us to start proclaiming the Acceptable Year of making the wrongs right, and to reach out for the sweetness of the promises set before us by our glorious Savior. Not myself alone do I feel this way, but I'm blessed to have the support of my entire family. And this year we all, including my 3 children, will be partaking at home with some friends so that we can openly expound on the heavens without the sideways looks. So thank you friends for helping us and many others to lift the veil from our eyes, to see truth as the Christ shared with us almost 2000 years ago. May God the Father and His Christ keep you friends in his Love.

January 14, 2014

Good evening brothers, you can add me on the [Email Alert] list. Looking forward to your next article!!

January 14, 2014

Evening AnointedJW, [Regarding Discerning the Time of Inspection] I've been waiting for you to tell it like it is, and let me tell you, you did not disappoint. I'm a single mother of two wonderful teenage sons and we have the greatest time reading your articles, emails and letters to the [Governing Body]. They have strengthened us beyond any words we could express but what I will say is this, we plan on having a great Memorial this year at home with a few of the sons of the kingdom and both my sons will be partaking for the 2nd time, so I'm simply overjoyed for your timing.  I guess I shouldn't be because I believe in the spirit of truth as you say doing his work. So brothers, continue please in setting before us starving sheep a banquet of spiritual gems and may our Great God and Father bless your work!!!

January 14, 2014

[From a former Circuit Overseer] [Regarding Discerning the Time of Inspection.] Good Day to you friends, I can tell you two have many years of training and experience in the workings of the Organization and it made me laugh at how on point you are in describing the attitude of many in the congregations, the air of superiority that Witnesses wear the white hats. And I, as well as the [Governing Body] know this is faulty reasoning because dear friends I could relate stories that would make your skin crawl. But I'd rather spend these moments to express my gratitude to you bold and courageous friends for your spiritually based articles and your indignation against any who would close entrance to the heavens or create a stumbling block for those who have accepted the invitation to be in Union with he and our Heavenly Father. So all of you out there who are worshippers of men, it's time for you to turn your attention to the true leader and finisher of our faith Jesus Christ, and examine firsthand the plain and open teachings. Then and only then will your eyes be opened to the real life. God bless you two, we've got work to do!

January 14, 2014

[Regarding Discerning the Time of Inspection.] AMEN!!! What took you so long? Jesus our Lord and Savior ... Our redeemer .. May we all worship him and our loving Father as well!! Those men in Brooklyn and the men before them, Shame on them. They better dig deeper bunkers to hide in !!! Oh wait Jesus has one made for them it's called hell.

January 14, 2014

[From a former Elder] Good evening brothers, I'm a former elder and pioneer. Many thanks for your excellent articles and engagement in spiritual matters connected to the Kingdom of God.

January 13, 2014

[From a current District Overseer] Dear brother and sister in Christ. It saddens me to admit the undeniable truth of the [Discerning the Time of Inspection] article. I, for my part, will continue to write, speak, and exhort the [Governing Body] to take a humble approach to what you have said so wonderfully. So let's not tire out, but let us as sons of the kingdom pursue with determination to let the light of our Lord shine bright no matter what. I, for one, applaud your courageous effort, friends. This is the call to action on the part of every Christian to take a stand. We our One dear friends!!!

January 13, 2014

[Regarding Discerning the Time of Inspection.] Bravo!  Bring it on Christ Jesus.  This article, is really stirring, and invigorating, but also a little sad for our dear brothers and sisters.  This is a brave and forthright, spirit directed article that is appropriate in this year of the Jubilee on man.    All  have suffered spiritually at the hands of the Governing Body.  The comparisons of the 1st century are fascinating. They have been bullies.  We agree it is woe to the Governing Body and all who stick with them in their deceit, their error and their pride.  It is difficult to see that there will be any repentance on their part, but there could be a chance.

To go against our Lord Jesus Christ is atrocious.  It is so true in what you said about talking of Jesus and using his name so much more.  After we left the organization, it felt really strange to talk about him so much.  We had been taught as if he was in a back seat. A shameful  part of the Watchtower Society history.   Really Jehovah put him in the front seat, ‘every knee shall bend’.  What were they thinking of.  There is such a freedom when you do get out of this manmade organization.  No more of their excuses for their behavior, ‘to wait on Jehovah’, or they are ‘imperfect men’, brothers need to wake up, as you once said in an article, the chariot has ‘left the building’.  Don’t be left behind.

To finally realize that we have an offer of sonship and a heavenly brotherhood that we belong to is beyond words.  Never have we felt such peace and harmony in our lives.  We are free!  We look to the heavens for the real life now and to the work of reconciling all mankind as a united family.  The decision has to be made personally and if they do not do anything about it, it lessens the possibility that the Governing Body will change.  Brothers must leave and stand with Christ Jesus now, not men who control lives. Forget destruction of mankind, preach unity of mankind.

January 13, 2014

[From a former Elder] [Regarding Discerning the Time of Inspection.] Brilliant, dear friends, Brilliant! We are committed to bringing heaven down! Great article, WOW!!!

January 13, 2014

Just got done reading the latest on Bringing Heaven Down [Discerning the Time of Inspection], and I must say it is very moving in that it is Kind but Firm as to the proper thinking that we should have as Sons of God. And the actions of the Governing Body is sad in that the joy that is laid before them is not embraced by them. But as it has been said 'Opportunity is not lost, it is just passed on to someone else!’  For God’s will and work will be done with or with out us! Let it be with US!

January 13, 2014

[Regarding Discerning the Time of Inspection] Looking forward to your next article. It was good that you fired with both barrels at the "Governing Body" and their "hitmen". They totally deserved it.

January 13, 2014

WOW again! I've only just this minute read it through quickly (Discerning the Time of Inspection). I will have to digest it further, but this really says it all and a lot, lot more. Many thanks again.

January 10, 2014

Dear AnointedJW, [regarding Question and Response 1/9/14] Fancy fudging figures.  We are absolutely disgusted that the Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses have sunk to a new depth of dishonesty.  Our dear brothers and sisters in the congregations, how terrible for them. Any brothers who had a hand in this reign of terror, as it should be called, in responsible positions, need to take note of the verse in  James 4:17 . . .Therefore, if one knows how to do what is right and yet does not do it, it is a sin for him. . . This should be taken in hand and dealt with, have no part of the organization that inhibits the freedom of choice to be a son of God. Let the Governing Body know that you will not stand for this type of leadership, be indignant to these men, who are claiming to be ‘shepherding the flock’ and ‘giving out food at the proper time’.  They are starving the congregations of spiritual food, of knowing their Heavenly Father’s true purpose for them, the real life in the glorious heavens. Shame on them and any who went along with this debacle. We stand with you in our Lord Jesus.

January 8, 2014

[From a former Elder] Evening brother and sister, outstanding article Serving God Off Script and so true. We always try to encourage more raw ministry that reaches the heart or spirit of the matter, so great stuff there friends. Also the heavenly theme you have on the site is refreshing and appropriate. The true God is really blessing your work and for that were all thankful.

January 7, 2014

[From a former Circuit Overseer and his wife] Greetings dear friends, we could not agree more, concerning the latest gem of an article "Serving God Off Script." You nailed it exactly, and it's high time we who claim to be Bible students well-versed in scripture start speaking from the heart and not Robo-Christians merely being puppets and mimics! So well done dear friends, you truly have your fingers on the very pulse of the Organization. May God the Father and His Christ continue with all of the Sons of the Kingdom of Heaven.

January 7, 2014

[From a current District Overseer] Good Day to you brothers, hey Bethel could use your skills and your way of approaching the ministry. I can see clearly why the [Governing Body] has to tighten up the reigns, because if everyone starts to Serve Off Script, they lose their grip on the minds and hearts. A terrific article brothers.

January 7, 2014

Hey family, talk about your pearl of high value! What a insightfully accurate take on the witnessing work done by our beloved organization. No active or inactive publisher can honestly deny that what's in Serving God Off Script is right on point. So as the Sons grow in faith and continue increasing the interest of our Lord, I personally pray more of Christ’s brothers speak Off Script! Love you both and the associate writers, translators and [office supply company] and anybody affiliated with your site. Together we're going to Bring Heaven Down.

January 7, 2014

Hello brothers of AnointedJW, I've been a reader for some time now but am very gifted on the computer. But your new look and The Father's Acceptable Year and Serving God Off Script articles have just opened my spirit wide open, so thank you.

January 7, 2014

The site looks magnificent and the articles superb. Good health to you both as God continues with you.

January 5, 2014

Thank you for raising the level of spiritual engagement among Jehovah's Witnesses to ever new heights.  Your responses do clarify some things for me.  I agree that, had Adam and Eve continued to have access to the tree of life, there may have been workarounds for death in order to get them into heaven. I also agree that there is nothing in the Bible that suggests that they were ever perfect. In fact, there doesn't seem to be anything perfect or congenial about the sadistic and cruel values of earlier people, and the Hebrew tribesmens and chiefdoms seemed to have been no different. I can't wait to read more of the articles on this website and the new design is looking beautiful.

January 4, 2014

[From a current District Overseer] Dear brothers, the site, the information, and the spirit you show in all your writings has given rise to a new type of Witness, a stronger more vibrant Christian one that is not easily swayed, but one that truly stands for something. If not sooner then sometime in the future our association will have to re-look and re-evaluate the approach we take toward spiritual freedoms and redefine what is and is not true apostasy because you brothers speak the love of Christ without the adorning of men but at the same time, remaining respectful. So if ALL those taking the lead humble themselves under the direction of our ONE ultimate LEADER Christ Jesus, then we will have a better Organization that is much more inclusive.  I, for my part, will do my best to spread this message that I believe is in harmony with the scriptures. So may our wonderful Father in Heaven continue guiding and blessing you.

January 4, 2013

Thank you for your upbuilding words.  I am overjoyed to have entered the real life and a real family. You are a blessing to all those you contact and especially a blessing to the Father!  Warm affection.

January 3, 2014

[From a current Circuit Overseer] Good Evening Friends, I just love the Father’s Acceptable Year information. I found it to be quite encouraging and upbuilding for all in the congregation to grow in the management of their own lives to, as you say, "live out loud," to be genuine in one’s worship of Jehovah and not to be dominated by man’s need to lord over their brothers with a smile. Those who have come to recognize their true relationship with God are the very ones I see living an authentic life, a life without fear! So bravo dear friends for your honest approach while still maintaining a high level of respect. The Open Letter 1/2/14 also was very bold and expresses genuine concern for the [Governing Body] so God bless you both and keep the faith!!!

We’ve been in the streets all day proclaiming freedom and liberty to all of our neighbors [in response to The Father’s Acceptable Year] so we will march on with you til the last lost sheep is found. So thank you for your endurance and your meaningful love for the entire faith community regardless of borders and language. I pray for you that God holds you up in strength. Love you my brother, you've changed the lives of myself and my entire family and neighbors. For this I'm eternally thankful.

[From a former Circuit Overseer] Brilliant and stupendous to say the least dear friends. You really put your back into this latest gem. "The Father’s Acceptable Year" is the best and most invigorating article to date in my opinion because of its intensely freeing content that expounds exactly the authentic nature of the ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ. This is my anthem for the rest of my days on this earth to free all of mankind from enslavement to men and institutionalized methods of worship. The site looks much more appealing that befits a Sovereign King as is our Christ. So great start to 2014.

[From a former Elder] WOW, what a delightful new look, and without any hesitation we are walking the streets proclaiming this all important message [The Father’s Acceptable Year]. Dear friends this is so spirit directed, I can feel it in my spirit. Also [a former Circuit Overseer] called me with the same united thought to get this information out to all [Jehovah’s Witnesses]. Thank God the Father for your paving the way for real truth to be made known. May our Lord and Master keep you both strong in his service.

[From a recovery mission in Colorado] Congratulations on the New Look, it's stands out better. And our minds have been blown again ‘mama fingers’ because this new article [The Father’s Acceptable Year] is the way to begin a new year. It was read today by the entire group of guys and you could see the dignity being put back in them. It was nice to see. We made calls to the [recovery missions in Los Angeles] to pick up the mantle and to get busy sounding the alarm. We always think of you both in our prayers. We love you and all your doing for the kingdom. Take care. God bless.

Hello family. The site is beautiful and speaks volumes to what you’re about, the heavens. The Father’s Acceptable Year is a work of spiritual art. Brilliant in its message to free anyone from the shackles in the mind or from overlords. This is our time to regain true liberty. Great job as always, but this one is even more spirited. God bless and love you both!

Dear AnointedJW, Happy Acceptable Year, the Jubilee of Man! ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!   The article [The Father’s Acceptable Year] was all we thought it would be and more, most definitely spirit approved.We thought it precise, deliberately moving the reader to action. Interesting that as man is awakening, the Spirit of Truth is being stimulated, with freedom in the air, wonderful.

This statement is one of our favorites, ‘physical things must be seen to be loved, but spiritual things must be loved to be seen’. And the ‘slave huts’, excellent, so exact, so true. You let people know they are not alone in this journey, with the Spirit beside us comforting and guiding us along with the brotherhood of mankind who have taken their stand. How lovely to think that the heavenly creatures would have been showing themselves to this day, perhaps again as heaven comes down. The article is a call to action to preach the Acceptable Year of the Lord.

Congratulations, too, the website is excellent, very professional and easy to maneuver. The background is so suitable. Funny, we have a similar wallpaper on our computer, showing the heavens!! 155 countries, wow!  We have printed out OUR MISSION, STATEMENT OF BELIEFS and WHAT JESUS TAUGHT, as they are ours too.   Such an exciting time.  We will expect the unexpected.
