Surviving Paradise

Of all the bad guys in human history, Satan the Devil stands alone. He's in control of everything, including governments, religion, big business and social media. Why care? Because he has a special relationship with Jehovah's Witnesses... particularly the Governing Body.

Does Jesus guys on earth even care about 8 million+ Jehovah's Witnesses? How about the rest of mankind? We take a look at three things that caused this former elder to reach the conclusion that they don't. Children, martyrdom... and 'new light'...

When a baptized Jehovah's Witness sins, they're subjected to a 'star chamber' like meeting with a judicial committee, including three random men who decide if they're 'sorry enough' to stay in the congregation. Where did this come from? Is it found in the Bible? Why are these shepherds asking me THESE questions?? The Governing Body tells us this is both necessary and every sinner will 'always be treated kindly'... reality shows us something different...

Jehovah's Witnesses believe that "Jehovah never changes"... because Malachi told them so in the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures. The same authority goes on to say that Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. But when you compare that with the organization they set up on earth to save all the rest of us, the questions begin... starting with 'why have there been so many changes?' We take a look at how uncomfortable change is... and if you need an organ transplant or are a life long pioneer... listen in.

A person has a lot to lose by associating with Jehovah's Witnesses. But perhaps the most devastating is the loss of 'self' or identity. Like all high control cults, leadership requires conformity, from and children and adults. How does one lose themselves as a Jehovah's Witness? Listen in.

Jehovah's Witnesses are obsessed with two, three letter words. You know the first one, the second is WAR. Jehovah was sure to share his warmongering in great detail in his book to mankind... and his guys on earth, the Governing Body, have found a way to make the tragic conflicts of the past century all about them. We take a limited look back... listen in.

At 2 Timothy 3:16, 17 Jehovah's Witnesses are told that reading the Bible makes them "fully competent, completely equipped for every good work." It raises a question: If Jehovah provided a perfect book, claiming it was all they ever needed for a relationship with him, why did he create the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society? Why have book carts? Was Jehovah kidding when he had that put in the Bible? Is there a reason Watchtower & Awake magazine are piling up in laundromats? Listen in...

Jehovah needs your money. Despite being all powerful and the creator of all things, the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses assure us he still needs cash... and he will take it from anyone, including children and 'poor people.' When not monitoring 'donations', he spends time investing in property on a planet he says he will soon destroy. So many questions.

Jehovah's Witnesses are taught that they have an inner voice that guides them through life, helping them make decisions and can make you feel good or bad about yourself. What is the voice in their head? Where did it come from and how do I make sure mine works right? Should I trust this voice? What is a 'conscience matter' … and does it even matter?

Jehovah's Witnesses are constantly reminded that they're flawed. It's no wonder their main message includes a hope of future 'perfection.' But what does that even mean? Will I be a superhero? Will a lifetime of fruit and veggies taste different? Will I have six pack abs? We take a look at the subject of 'perfection' as told to us by the nine guys in upstate New York!
