Do you wonder why there are so many leaving the ranks of your organization and finding joy and truth in other churches?
When I was a Witness, this possability was unthinkable to me.
Do you find Grace and Happiness in a Kingdom Hall?
Just Curious.

Louis...Your question is as rediculous as mine would be if I pointed out to you that all you talk about when you go into ministry is your spin on theology....This is an active part of my ministry..Kiddo

With the greatest of respect to you, I am glad you are happy. One reservation I have is that you seem to be happy to attack those who once loved you.
If you truly are happy, then move on with your life, there is no need to call down fire and brimstone on these people.
Personally, I have the greatest of respect for them. They sheltered me and helped when I was in a very difficult period in my life and when other faiths were disinterested. They fed me and treated me as one of their own.
I left because I could no longer live the lie and be untrue to them or my god. It was a bitter day when I had to go but I feel no need to attack them or call down evil upon them.
Be happy with what you have. If not, change it.
Best wishes to you.

ok im sorry for your inconvenience and as a jehovah's witness we want everyone to come to know who God actually is. I am also sorry that on the internet satan has free reign as to whats going on so he can be very involved in every single answer or question im not saying that he is in everyone of them but he can make things look true and im sorry to say it but no one can tell you what the actual truth is you have to decide for yourself which kind of life you would like to have you can have a very exciting short lived life now or you can enjoy the blessings of having an everlasting life in the future... im not saying that everyone else would be bad some people are good and thats their choice again i wish i could help you but if you read the bible then you and you alone can choose what you want to do with your life. said from an actual 19 yr old jehovah's witness look me up and i can prove it

I am VERY happy as a Witness and the Witnesses I know are happy as well. I have been in and around the organization for my entire life and I've only known one person to leave the truth and join another church. Most I've known that left the organization left as teenagers because of immorality, and many of those have found their way back as adults.
I don't know what you base your statement on that "there are so many leaving the ranks of your organization and finding joy and truth in other churches." Like I said, I've only known one person that did this, and I don't know if they are still attending their church now or whether they feel they found joy or truth.
In fact, people are pouring in, not clamoring to leave. There has been incredible growth and it is still going on. Hundreds are baptized as Witnesses every week because they find joy and truth among Jehovah's people.
As far as I'm concerned, I have found the truth, and I could never imagine leaving it behind to join false religion. Like Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, whom shall we go away to? You have sayings of everlasting life;" -John 6:68

funny you should say that because I was a JW kid who was always trying to sneak out of school for church school with my friend. lol I would put my coat and hood on and slip out with her, until the nuns caught me one day and were watching me closely from then on. They told me I would have to have my parents sign a permission slip for me to attend. AS IF that was gonna happen. lol I guess I knew from that young age that the real truth was to be found somewhere else. Is it any wonder that I ran as far away from the WT as I possibly could have the moment I was old enough to get out on my own? Obviously, the Holy Spirit had bigger and better plans for me. Clearly so.

Curious about what? What do you think they are curious about?
SHOW the statistics proving that "so many" are leaving other faiths and are becoming JW's.
I want to see it.

Every one of your questions is against Jehovah's Witnesses. You really ought to get a life. It makes me wonder what would make a person so obcessed about somthing like that.
You must be so full of demons your personality changes from day to day.

Most of the ones I see here are sarcastic and nasty. Some are kind and a bit open-minded though. Everyone at the Kingdom Hall I went to was never that happy, the married couples were probably the most miserable of all.

It seems to me they are on a suicide mission.
I see them leaving the hall and they just whip out in front of whoever is coming down the road.
