COMMENT:
Hello Pearl!
I can only thank Jah that i found you! After seventeen years as a JW, i found myself so disturbed and distraught (i.e., sighing and groaning) over what was going on that i just couldn't bring myself to attend the meetings anymore. Prior to my departure, i discerned that much of the Society's liturature was laced with poison so i completely stopped reading any of it and began studying the scriptures only. What a difference that made! While i secretly never agreed with some of the Governing Body's official doctrines, policies and procedures (i viewed them as unscriptural, even idolatrous in some cases), when i realized that they couldn't possibly be the "faithful and discreet slave" (that is a future designation and only Jah/Jesus appoint these individuals, not themselves), I got the last bit of courage needed to finally leave and begin searching. Eventually i found your blog and now check it nearly everyday for any new information. A very close friend of mine who has also left after nearly twenty years as a JW (she just couldn't deal with it emotionally/mentally anymore) also reads your blogs and is as electrified as I am to be finally experiencing the true meaning of the "light getting brighter"!
So here's my question: How do we sound the warning that you mentioned? Since it's likely that no one on the inside will listen, what good will it do? Besides, you said yourself that a Christian is not obligated to sow seed among thorns. So while I have the desire to help others get out of symbolic Jerusalem, I do not know how to go about it nor do i see any point in it. Simply mentioning that i was no longer attending meetings (besides making a brief comment about the hypocrisy in the congregation) was enough for one person --someone i considered a good friend previously--to immediately cease all association with me. Thus, even hinting at the idea that the Organization is not all that its cracked up to be will send 99.9% of 'em running with their thumbs in their ears!
Please advise...Thank You!

I also, am greatly relieved to hear that you have found the truth, which I myself am so grateful to YHVH's spirit for. There are those who read it and recognize none of the truth of the cited scriptures...and then there are expressions like yours, which reveal eyes and ears that are open, and a consciousness of their spiritual poverty (Matt.5:3).
This need is keen during this spiritual famine and drought (Amos 8:11; Rev.6:6; 18:8; 12:14)...yet the spiritual pestilence that strikes others with blindness and an inability to hear, keeps them sick and unaware of their dire need (Matt.13:15; Rev.3:17; 6:8). The senseless are the great majority
(Matt.7:13,14; Luke 13:23,24; Matt.24:22; Ps.94:17,5,8,12,13,14,16,18,20,22,23,20,21; Rev.20:9,7,8,9; 13:15; 11:7; 6:9,11).
So to hear that my labors, (and that of other faithful) are reaching some, is of great refreshment, and relief to my grief (Matt.10:42).
The Bible reads;
"But God also rescued Lot out of Sodom because he was a righteous man who was sick of the shameful immorality of the wicked people around him. Yes, Lot was a righteous man who was tormented in his soul by the wickedness he saw and heard day after day. So you see, the Lord knows how to rescue godly people from their trials, even while keeping the wicked under punishment until the day of final judgment." 2Pet. 2:7-9 (Eze.9:4)
"The eyes of the Lord search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him." 2Chron. 16:9 A
We see from these three scriptures that Yhwh will not abandon those whose heart is exclusively devoted to Him. He delivers them by His strength (2Chron. 16:9). His spirit can bring them to the truth (John 6:44; 14:6)...as He does for each faithful anointed one, as well as all those who may accept the "fine fruit" the faithful witnesses offer (Matt.10:40,41,42; Matt.7:20; Rev.11:3,4).
Regarding your question...
Yhwh has begun to make me aware of what I must do, as well as how to do it. You are right that God's "Land" must be warned (Jer.25:30,29; Rev.2:20; 13:14). It is true that Satan has erected a wall around God's people. It would seem impossible to penetrate that wall with the judgment message.
Remember the wall of Jericho? That prophecy will be fulfilled in it's grandest meaning, in our very day (Josh.6:8,13; Rev.8:6). I am going to ask everyone whose heart inclines him to obey Eze.33:7,8 to be a part of the upcoming universal witness. For, it is the final one to be given.
I am talking to another anointed one about how Holy Spirit is guiding this final warning. I will most certainly post all the details, as we become certain of how to do this in harmony with Yhvh's approval.
The wall of Jericho fell, partly due to the blowing of the 7 horns of the priests (Joshua 6:8).
This final wall of false teachings, which holds captive God's Called Ones, falls by the same means, as symbolized in Revelation (Rev.8:6).
"Whether they hear, or whether they refrain" the warning must be given (Eze.2:5). This warning will be the main tool used to harvest the remaining wheat of anointed, upon which the arrival of the Kingdom awaits (Rev.14:14,15,16; 6:11). It is a very important activity, and I hope everyone possible will offer themselves to support it.
The lives of those whom we regard as our "brothers and sisters", as well as the anointed who are still asleep and in chains, hangs in the balance.
In fact it would be good to consider all of Ezekiel chapter 2, because it brings up the very "thorns" you mention...
Eze.2:1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10:
And he said to me, “Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you.” And as he spoke to me, the Spirit entered into me and set me on my feet, and I heard him speaking to me. And he said to me, “Son of man, I send you to the people of Israel, to nations of rebels, who have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me to this very day. The descendants also are impudent and stubborn: I send you to them, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God.’ And whether they hear or refuse to hear (for they are a rebellious house) they will know that a prophet has been among them. And you, son of man, be not afraid of them, nor be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you and you sit on scorpions. (Rev.9:3; Eze.2:6) Be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, for they are a rebellious house. And you shall speak my words to them, whether they hear or refuse to hear, for they are a rebellious house.
But you, son of man, hear what I say to you. Be not rebellious like that rebellious house; open your mouth and eat what I give you.” And when I looked, behold, a hand was stretched out to me, and behold, a scroll of a book was in it. And he spread it before me. And it had writing on the front and on the back, and there were written on it words of lamentation and mourning and woe."

(Rev.8:13; 20:12)
So while we are not obligated to cast pearls before swine; we need to discern who those swine, dogs, "thorns" and "scorpions" are.
So while we are not obligated to cast pearls before swine; we need to discern who those swine, dogs, "thorns" and "scorpions" are.
YHVH tells us in Rev.9:3,5,7.
These are the ones bearing what seems like "crowns" of authority...an army that goes forth as multitudinous as a locust swarm. Their target? The "unsealed men"...anointed previous to their being sealed. Why unsealed? Because they are obviously still under the domination of these "Locust/Scorpions" instead of Yhvh. Only by being set loose (Rev.9:14) from this smoke-like river of Satan's sons and their lies (Rev.12:15; 9:11; John 8:44; 2Thess. 2:3,9; Rev.12:3,9; 13:1,14,6); can these chosen ones become sealed as loyal to Yhvh (Rev.20:4).
Yet we see from Eze.2 that a witness still has to be given to the "rebellious house". This is the light.....although these empowered Locust/Scorpions exist, we may not conclude that all "Jehovah's Witnesses" are these "thorns". Only the elders are depicted as having counterfeit crowns of authority. These ones are the "thorns" and "scorpions". Yhvh tells us that they are beyond conversion to truth, by the "breastplates of iron" which they wear (Rev.9:9).
While the entire "house"/"land"/"fold" of God's people are blinded by these insect vessels of darkness (Rev.9:2,3; Jer.25:29,30; Rev.12:16) and it causes them to leave loyalty to Yhvh; not all are those insects of authority/elders.
We can not condone the idolatry of "Jehovah's Witnesses", nor continue to remain in company with them (Psalm 26:4; 1Cor. 5:11; Rev.18:4). But Ezekiel chapter 2 is clear....we must witness to them this final warning.
Jesus clearly showed me that the great majority will not heed the warning...not because we did not reach them with it, but due to their own hardened hearts, they stand as judged. Yhvh abandons them to their own desire. (Luke 17:28-37>LINK; 2Thess. 2:11; Ps.94:23)
I hope you can see why this warning needs to be given....
It saves us individually from blood-guilt. It establishes Yhvh's justice in condemning the wicked (who were first given warning). It saves those who can hear. It seals the rest of those who prove faithful, as well as the unfaithful "ten kings" who side with the Beast. All...extremely important events of prophecy!
I hope all who possibly can, will help. As I said, I will post details as they are established.
Your comments about the reaction of those marked by the Beast, help to illuminate the true identity of the Organization within prophecy. There is no other authority and power on earth, that has this control over people's minds and actions, as does this Wild Beast of Rev.13:8,15,16. We are seeing the fulfillment of that prophesied displaced loyalty and worship of the Wild Beast, right before our own eyes! God's Kingdom draws near!

Dear pearl
ReplyDeleteI have been inactive in the jw congergation for about two and a half years I was baptised in 91. I left the congergation thinking I was leaving the truth and jehovah. I knew I was going to be destroyed. I prayed to Jehovah and told him how sorry I was just didnt have the strenght. Going to the kingdom hall I felt burden guilt supression controll unworthyness things that I have felt my whole life since I can remember. I know the bible says Jehovah is love but was told I needed to love people. As always I that the problem was because of me just not good enough. I didnt leave because I saw truth in the bible like most others. When I felt that I had nothing to loose I prayed and went online. Jehovah brought me to you. I could feel Jehovahs spirit through your spiritual food. What freedom to see from the bible the real truth seems so clear now. I have just been compelled to let you know im just one sheep but im out here and you have saved my life in many ways. Thank you so much for being a faithful anointed one. I pray for you and others that are out there. Thank you so much
A warm and loving Welcome to you.
ReplyDeleteI would like to share with you one of the ways in which Jehovah disciplined me.
When I tried with all my might to do everything the Organization was directing, I felt I could never measure up. I prayed earnestly for more Holy Spirit, and could not understand why Jehovah did not give it, as He surely promises at Luke 11:13. It would be a long lesson, before I finally realized why Jehovah withheld what I begged Him for...the strength I needed to obey men. We must ask "according to His will" (1John5:14).
We may suffer while we struggle to do what we think is right, or what others say is right. But we will not be blessed, until we do what Jehovah's says is right. While this can be a long hard lesson, Jehovah lets us learn it, because He loves us (Heb.12:6; Prov.3:12)
I thought this experience of mine might help you, in thinking about your own struggle, while you felt unworthy in comparison to the elevated demands of men (Isa.28:10; Matt.23:4). Jehovah was guiding you away from the lawless lack of love, toward refreshment for your soul (Matt.11:28; 1John4:8; 2Cor.1:3,4,5). May you continue to draw close to our Heavenly Father (James4:8) and remain in his love, forever. Jude1:20,21
Love, Pearl

Yes, very close friends don't bother with me anymore since I began talking about the real truth. But there are some who were inactive at the hall that really listened, even teenagers and young adults. Those have been the ones that truly care about learning. Finding a few to discuss the correlation between prophecy and current events have really helped my focus and I gained friends back that I guess I didn't bother with. But the majority are mesmerized by Satan. Thank-you for being a faithful anointed and I pray many are as excited as me. Although afraid too. Love, Debbie
