I recently had a conversation with my Mom about no longer being a Jehovah's Witness. It ultimately led to the discussion of having limited contact to safeguard her heart against the possibility that I could lure her away from "the truth". Join me as I discuss how this went and what it means when Jehovah's Witnesses tell their unbelieving family members that they will need to limit their contact. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/apostatejw/message

Where do we go when we die? Is it to heaven? Do we fall asleep? Do we wake up in paradise? Let's look into the Jehovah's Witness's belief in life after death coupled with other Christian beliefs and discover for ourselves what really happens in the afterlife. Scriptures quoted when discussing Jehovah's Witness doctrine are from the New World Testament translation of the Bible. All other Bible text quoted is from the King James Version. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/apostatejw/message

My dad passed away this last week and right away I began to hear the rhetoric of the Jehovah's Witnesses starting. First I was told if I wanted to see my dad again in the resurrection that I would need to make a choice in my faith. Then close friends of the family began really pushing meeting attendance. I began thinking this isn't what it means to grieve the loss of a loved one. This week we dig into how Jehovah's Witnesses view death and the afterlife. We have transitioned over from using the New World Translation to fully using the KJV unless the scripture is directly quoted from a source of The Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society.

How do the Jehovah's Witnesses view the Bible's account of creation? Let's jump into this belief of the Witnesses and put it to the test of what the Bible says verse science and even personal opinion.  Thank you for all the support you have shown over these last few months. As we roll into the new year, I hope we can better understand what the Jehovah's Witnesses teach and illustrate how their reasonings do not line up with Biblical teachings. Bible verses cited are read out of the New World Translation unless otherwise noted.  If you have any questions, comments, or concerns or would like to share your own story, please feel free to email me at [email protected]. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/apostatejw/message
