Well, I dont think they are 'God's channel'. When you look into it that phrase has very demonic /spiritualist connotations.
However, it is undeniable that they are the main organisation that Jehovah/ Jesus has used to 'preach the good news in all the nations'
I use much of the JW online resources when I prepare my student's bible lessons. As I told her, 'why throw the baby out with the bath water.
We meet in public over a coffee with our silver 2013 NWT study bibles. It almost like I want one of the local JWs to catch me and inform on me
I avoid the parts that idolise the Governing Body, or promote the 1914 fraud.
We are still on the 'milk', (simple stuff) e.g. Who is Jehovah, How to draw close to Jehovah, How to pray, Who is Jesus etc.
When we progress to the 'meat' (more complex doctrines) I plan to use Robert Kings resources more.
She knows I am trying to 'fade' (disassociate by stealth without disassociating or getting disfellowshiped) and no longer attend the Zoom meetings; but I haven't lost faith in Jehovah, the bible or most Watchtower teachings. However, I cannot in good conscience direct people to an organisation that promotes the 'death injections.' Also I believe that the 'disgusting thing is now in the holy place.'
She is an old school friend who I recently reconnected with. She expressed an interest in meeting to talk about spiritual things. I offered her a bible study even though I am no longer attending Zoom, because I try to talk about spiritual things to people when it is appropriate, as I still want to obey Jesus' command even though I am fading. I can vaguely remember talking to her at school about the truth 30 years ago, but I cannot remember what I said. I believe Jehovah was manoeuvring things, even back then. I often 'witness' to the Stand in the Park crowd, as I meet a lot of awake people with a interest in spiritual things there. Obviously I no longer submit a field service report.
I am so proud of how she is progressing and picking things up. I am privileged that Jehovah has given me a opportunity to study the bible with someone after all these years. My father says that Jehovah gave me the opportunity to help her because He knows I now wont promote the Governing Body etc.
I hope you continue to learn about Jehovah, there are people on here that would be more than willing to help answer your questions and supplement what you are learning from your bible teacher.
Just avoid those who like to pick arguments, use unchristian speech, ponfisicate/humble brag endlessly or promote new age philosophy.
Christian love

I think it's more than sunken cost fallacy but the fear of uncertainty, self doubt/lack of confidence, fear of the loss of comfort and greater responsibility and cognitive expense of not going through motions and being told what to do.
