Dan's Corner
dan_kaciI was raised as a Jehovah’s Witness, but I never felt like I fit in at the Kingdom Hall. In 2008, as I was in the process of working to gain acceptance by the Jehovah’s Witnesses, my brother and sister who had left Jehovah’s Witnesses before me, began to reach out to me in love, using the resources on this website.  I soon gave my life to Christ and was then able to lead my wife Kaci to Christ as well. Now my walk with Jesus is so great. I love my Savior! Read Dan’s Story out of Jehovah’s Witnesses.

AN EX-JEHOVAH'S WITNESS COMES TO JESUS

Greetings from Dan and Kaci,

Blessed be the Name of the Lord. What a powerful month. The phone ministry has been great this month. I continue to be amazed at the wonders of God. I had a phone call this month from a Jehovah's Witness who has left the organization. She has been out for six years. However, just recently God has been working on her heart. She stated that she has not been involved in church and I am not sure how much she is reading her bible, but I asked her the question that Jesus posed to his disciples when he said, “Who do men say that I am (Luke 9:18)?” I asked her who she thought Jesus was and she replied,

“In the beginning God said let us make man in our image so Jesus must have been there since the beginning.”

WITNESSING TO JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES WITH QUESTIONS TO CHALLENGE THEIR BELIEFS

What a great month. I was able to help out a Christian struggling with questions to ask the Jehovah's Witnesses who she is having a bible study with. The Lord gave us a few good questions that we thought would have a great impact on them. I have listed them in this report in case any of you want to use them.  Perhaps some of the information here has gone unnoticed before. Here are the questions:

1. According to Jehovah's Witness beliefs, everyone prior to the Holy Spirit being poured out has an “earthy hope”. In contrast, Hebrews 11:16 states that all the Old Testament Fathers looked to a heavenly home. Why the contradiction? Is the Bible lying or is it wrong? Please explain.

A CHRISTIAN WIFE SHOWS HER JEHOVAH'S WITNESS HUSBAND SUBLIMINAL IMAGES IN THE WATCHTOWER

Blessings everyone,

I am continuing to minister to the couple we had a chance to meet in California. The lady has faced numerous challenges since coming out of the Jehovah's Witness organization and your prayers can be extremely helpful. Please keep this couple in your prayers, and if God puts them on your heart please lift them up.

I had a very encouraging conversation with a woman who called us this month. She has been married to a Jehovah's Witness for some time. He is currently disfellowshipped and does not go to the meetings but as you know he still considers it the "truth." Recently the Jehovah's Witnesses have been coming by her home and gave her a 2011 Memorial invitation tract.

AN EX-JEHOVAH'S WITNESS NOW FOLLOWING CHRIST

What a great and exciting month. As you know, Kaci and I had an opportunity to go to California and witness to a lady that was struggling to come out of the Jehovah's Witness organization. Thank you for all of your prayers. God answered them. I am happy to announce that the woman that we were witnessing to is now a follower of our Lord Jesus Christ. Here is an email that she sent Kaci and I shortly after we left California:

“Hi there, I had such a very delightful and lovely day with you and your wife. I prayed to Jesus....... I  hope he is listening to me. I hope I'm not hopeless...  Hope ...[we] can come to Colorado sometime. Let's stay in touch.”

CAUTION - WITNESSING TO JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES THROUGH CHRISTIAN MISSIONARY DATING

Blessings from Dan and Kaci,

Through the ministry phone line, my wife and I had the privilege of meeting with a local person who is engaged in witnessing to a Jehovah's Witness. It has been a very challenging time for this individual because of some situations that have happened in her life. It was such a blessing though to be able to encourage a sister in Christ to stay strong and to not lose heart. God ministered to this individual through Kaci and I, and I believe there will be some big changes in her life soon.

Testimonials

wdgrstudyThey are all there for me!

“I had Jehovah’s Witnesses visiting for six years. … The sad thing is now I have their beliefs in my head. So I put myself into God’s hands and asked for direction. …Well, the feeling of freedom is amazing. I am like a child, learning again for the first time. The reason I had to write to you was the Karen and Cindy conversations. Instead of me asking for help, one question at a time, they are all there for me!! It seems as if ‘Karen’ could read my mind 

It’s so lovely for things to fall into place, mainly that ‘What happens when we die?’ This was a very big issue for me. I was scared while I did not understand even the tiny bit I do now. It’s such a joy. Instead of feeling unworthy(were all sinners I know) and feeling I would never be saved or go to Heaven. So, please thank God and Jesus with me for such help.”

jwsaveI have to tell you how your website saved my life.

 “I have been a baptized Witness since 1995, and I have to tell you how you have saved my life. Every couple of years I get this gnawing sense that this is not quite right, that I am not 100% vested in what the Watchtower Society says.  …Lately, I have stopped attending meetings and my daughter, 13, has begged me not to make her go back. So I have been praying and chatting with friends outside the organization…

I can’t tell you my sense of relief when I stumbled upon your site and started to read the articles. I want to cry, but I’m at work. I can’t wait to get home because I am so excited I can barely stand it! Please, please, how can I meet others who feel this way? I sure could use the fellowship. Again, thanks for the work you do.”

exjw-summerGod bless you for the difference you are making.

“My brother and I were raised by a Jehovah's Witness mother. I am 52 years old now and still haven't been able to shake the stigma of the experience. My brother wasn't as lucky as me and ended up taking his own life at 17. I have been through everything ... I can't express how much I appreciate what you are doing... God bless for the difference you are making.”

I do not feel so alone!

Thank you for creating this website. After reading stories of former Jehovah's Witnesses, I do not feel so alone. My resolve to stay out of that religion has also strengthened. I have also come to realize that my depression, anxiety, and many other emotional scars inflicted by the organization and those in the ‘truth’ will take time to heal. But your website has also come to help me ... Thank you.”

hallJust as I was about to enter the Jehovah’s Witnesses again, God led me to your website.

“Hi…I am an Ex-Jehovah’s Witness from South Africa. ...I left the Jehovah’s Witnesses not because I did not agree with their beliefs, but because my wife could not handle it with me being a Jehovah’s Witness and she not. I became an anti-religious person. Then, just as I was about to enter the Jehovah’s Witnesses again, God led me to your websiteToday, I prayed to Jesus for salvation after I read your article on your website…”

I’m so glad that I have run across this site.

“After reading the article that David Reed wrote on your site, I’ve looked at things in ‘a new light’ so-to-speak. ...I’m so glad that I have run across this site. I’m sure that it was the Holy Spirit that directed me to all of you!

 

exjw_groupYour website is a great source for truth

 “Your website is a great source for those seriously seeking the truth.… The Jehovah’s Witness elders shun me. I’ve known these guys for 30 years... Well, when I walk into the Hall they turn their backs to me. I have not seen my Jehovah’s Witness ex-wife, or daughter for two years. ...They hide my family from me. When I go to their homes, they smile with arms folded and say nothing.

The stories I read at your website were loud and clear - conditional love by the ‘brothers’! I have learned more in the Christian Church about unconditional love than 30 years as a Witness. When I accepted Christ, who He really is, the Holy Spirit opened my eyes to see both sides clearly. ...Without the Holy Spirit it is impossible to know the real TRUTH! Keep up your good work.”
