The most shocking confession from a JW elder I've ever heard! #fakesteak

I woke up last year 2023. Jesus pulled me out. I now know what it means to be born again. Jesus has lead me to just "being" for a season. Not overly striving for approval. Or following any religious regiment. It's a relationship with your God that counts for everything.

God bless someone who really has found the Lord.

Watchtower is DANGEROUS 🛑

God is Love! God Bless You Ali!

Happy Birthday to your mom! Great video and thanks for sharing. Sad isn't it? Jw motto is "Ignorance is bless". They don't care about truth, theyre happy in the Matrix. Smh.

Amen! That last part so hit home! My husband’s whole family are jws I’ve been praying for years for them to wake up. It’s Gods work not my strength. Needed to hear this .

I just walked away. I never tried to “wake people up” because I’ve experienced just what you have. The Witnesses I know are grown and making their own choices, they have these rehearsed, unreasoning answers to everything, and they will run me in circles when I feel like I’m supposed to just be living my life and trying to do some good in the world. A lot of the folks I care about left on their own when they got sufficiently tired of the nonsense. I appreciate those who do feel called to have public platforms, because they will give courage to those who are uncomfortable and reconsidering to just leave. You let people know in a much broader way than I can by individual example, that there is absolutely life on the other side of WT.

Hello Ali, it's such a pleasure to listen to you😄 Great points. I love this artificial laboratory made steak example👍 wish your mom very happy birthday and staying in awesome health🎂🥂🍾🎉🎉

I agree with you and can relate. Happy birthday to your mom and i wish you well with your journey to the REAL truth though Jesus Christ not the organization. We were once blind and now we can see!

You do a great job. Was a little discouraged this morning for much of the same reasons you brought up. You perked me up! Thank you for reminding me of the grace Jesus gives❤

Happy Birthday to Mom! 🎈💐 Thank you, Ali for generously sharing your thoughts!!! What a Treasure you & Mom are for all of us!🌟🤗☯️

Great choice in movie clip there. As I see it, there are two very powerful forces at work in the minds of the JWs, which hijacks their will: 1. Willful blindness, which is "willful" primarily due to 2. undue influence. Cypher, in this clip speaks volumes when he said, "Ignorance is bliss." The pain of knowing oftentimes is too much to bear. This is the fear I spoke about in my third installment in my apostate series. The JWs understand, if even at a level below the liminal space, that the pain of knowing the real truth about the cherished Faith can have profound implications. Most are not ready for that level of pain. But, speaking from my own experience - if I could go through it again, knowing the pain that I would experience after arriving at the truth, I would still make the same decision again. Knowing the truth with lucidity is better than blissful ignorance, in the long run.

It’s lovely to see you here. Good point you mention about no human being able to wake Saul up. I know that there are many in WT who don’t see the truth about the org, but we know that Jehovah’s grace will save many of those honest hearted ones at Armageddon. I personally feel thankful to WT for some of the basic doctrines. I do feel they are on the right side concerning: Jehovah’s name and identifying him, who Jesus is, the blood issue (I personally feel the scriptures are very clear on this and the significance of blood and the immuno-compatibility issues connected, point to blood not being designed for human to human transmission), Armageddon (though not the generation teaching or 1914 - forgetting those- they make no sense), celebrating of Xmas, birthdays etc (Jews and Muslims never celebrated birthdays because they knew, back then, of the horrible connections they had to paganism, but also, Jesus must have felt pain when Jehovah’s prophets were murderer on those birthdays. I know many ex-JWs say “there’s no connection between my birthday and the significance of those past birthdays.” However, If something hurt our father, like a painful memory, practising things that honour the pain is cruel. Jehovah and Jesus, also feel pain. I respect that and personally don’t want to practice things that bring energy to that pain.) Anyhow, those are my imperfect musings. We all live in God’s grace and have so much to thank him for as our impact thoughts and reasonings are often so far removed from his, sadly. I hope you and your mother keep well. Sorry to hear about your mother’s health issues. Praying she gets over them. Much love to you both❤

3:23 Shouldn’t we give the red pill/blue pill message of grace to others? So well said Ali. 👍

Happy Birthday to your mother! Great video and beautiful scenery.

Happy birthday to your Mum! 🎈 🎂 🎉 I took the red pill - blue pill option, that’s why I stopped eating steak, or any animal product, for that matter. There’s no humane way to kill sentient beings, and a long time before they’d die naturally. Once you see, you can’t unsee. Thanks for sharing this experience. It’s really disturbing to think that some JWs KNOW they’re living in a fake reality – and prefer that state to facing reality.

Happy Birthday 🎉 Mom... Thanks Ali!

Happy Birthday and thoughts and prayers for you Mom ❤ Love the walking and talking videos 😊

Thank you! Love your insights ❤ your dog is adorable!

My sister in Christ! God bless you. See you and mom in eternity with our Lord!!!
