Hi.
So I am nearly a year into my fade, and I still have a nagging sense of guilt that I am forsaking the command to gather together.
I used my 'discernment' 'to flee' after the disturbing #Updates and the letter to full time workers to get vaxxed was leaked.
I still get messages from certain ones in the congregation asking how i am, which congregation i am attending etc, and i feel bad for not responding. I dont know if their interest is sincere or if they are stooges acting on direction from the elders.
I tried making friends with non witnesses who seemed to be awake but had to curtail that when I realised how deep into the new age fraud they were.
I am doing the 'fading' route as I still have relatives in the truth. I know if I am honest and tell them I no longer have any faith in the GB, and that I think they are the Man of Lawlessness, and that judgement is imminent, I will be disfellowshiped or forcibly disassociated and will be in no position to help my JWs friends when the judgement comes.
How do I deal with this honorably?
I feel so alone. The only person I see face to face to converse with is my team leader at work.
I am also being persecuted by my next door neighbour. I do not have the means to move, and am often sleep deprived because of the antisocial behaviour and noise pollution.
Also my father has now been so stumbled that he has written a letter of dissociation, and is associating with a Baptist church, taking communion and is some sort of Zionist and believes in 2 raptures. He admits he hasnt felt a heavenly calling.
Think James Penton/Ray Franz/Eric wilson.
I no longer believe in shunning, but is it appropriate to keep talking about spiritual things with him?
I cant wait for the revealing of Christs true brothers.
Sorry for the long post. Please keep praying for each other.
