YAY💃🏽thanks for watching 💟
That’s awesome ❤
@@evaarnold5838 thank u 😊 ❤️
Eva is adorable, what a fantastic woman with great values and love for her family. Thank you, Vevian!
What a fantastic story. Can't believe how heartless this religion can be but why am I always so shocked I love these stories , such a gift. Thank you so much.
Thanks for watching 🤎
Thank you, it was my pleasure ❤
This is so similar to our families experience with this organisation. My wife woke up afer our son was disfellowshiped and left. Thank you for sharing Eve and thank you Vivian for another outstanding interview.
We as JWs do not know the Bible, we know the Watchtower literature!
Thank you so much for your time Eva to share your experience and Vevian!
Greetings to all!!
Thank you ladies. Eva, well done for setting you and your sons free from the cult. It's sad how the family were so indoctrinated with the bizarre doctrines that they had to behave in unloving manner.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful story
You are so welcome ❤
Great interview!! I find interviews cathartic, I’ve been out 8 years now, and would love to share my story someday❤️
Thanks for watching 💜
I’m so glad you enjoyed ♥️
Wow! More common of a story than realised! This abuse is rampant in high control religious organisations! 😢 Devestating people's lives!
Her family definitely kept their eyes on the prize. The prize for many was a grave and a tombstone. Kind of a booby prize for all that toil.
So sad isn’t it? Nothing to show for their life’s work…💔
@@evaarnold5838 Eva, I would not say nothing to show because you are here now. If they were unhappy in their endeavors, then that makes it terrible. My mother recently passed away a true blue Jehoovian and many time she and her brethren would say they want to live to see Armageddon. My parents were involved in building kingdom halls which were handed over to the organization with no compensation. In some cases people built their kingdom halls with money they had collected locally and now have to drive elsewhere for their meetings. It just shows to go ya how powerful the mind control is that people are still believing in the organization.
In 1977 aged 16 ,I actually got caught for pinching a pair of thongs ,my agnostic atheist family never shunned me. In 1988 aged 27 Watchtower hijacked my mind, I dissociated in 2018 aged 57 now I get shunned by all my wife's JW friends in the Kingdom Hall car park. Nicole my beautiful pimi jw wife can't drive so I give her lifts to all the meetings and field service groups. Justin Porter ex jw ❤️
I'm sorry you have to live like this. It's so cruel! Says a lot about the kind of person you are, that you still take your wife to the meetings. Hopefully, she will wake up soon, and you can have the beautiful life you deserve together.
They manipulate people with many ways! Your wife is trapped by their hypocritical so called Christian love! You are kind person for respecting her choice, until she opened her spiritual eyes!
Such a good interview! Thank you for all you do!❤
My pleasure 💛thanks for watching
This was so uplifting❤❤❤
Thank you ❤
Another great interview. I can relate.
🤍thanks for watching
Love how Witnesses describe themselves as 5th generation and then fumble through all kinds of mental gymnastics to explain “overlapping generations”. 😂
😂😂😂😂..good point
Thanks for your interview, you both 💪
Thanks for watching 🩷
Thank you ❤
Thank you for sharing your story hi from Mexico 🇲🇽 😊
Thank you so much, Eva and Vevian! Much love to you both ❤
🤗♥️thank you for watching
Thank you my pleasure ❤
This is what truth, the real one makes for many: freedom (John 8.36)... and the blessed work from the activists.
Thanks for watching 💖
What an encouragement ♥️ TY!
Thanks for sharing your story Eva. Awesome interview Vivian… my heart dropped when you talked about how your family walked out and didn’t ask you to join them for dinner etc….That’s conditional love at its finest…❤
It’s just crazy how family is treated under these circumstances….so inconsiderate and unkind and yet this religion is apparently known for their love…..right!!!!
What a lovely lady!❤
She sure is! Thanks for watching 🩶
Thank you my pleasure ❤
Another incredible life story! Thank you Vevian & Eva!
Thanks for your story, seeing how your son was treated reminds me of how i was treated as a fatherless boy. The elders do not appreciate free thinking. They are very oppresive and they never stop picking on you. Even now, my little brother has extrmely sensitive skin and cannot shave daily and they are so harsh on him. Nothing has changed and I'm tired of this life
Never was a jw but I love your story you will be alright.
Thanks for watching ❤️
Thank you, it was my pleasure ❤
This interview really resonated for me…..you are kept so busy with this religion that you don’t know your passion or have any down time
For being the earth-version of Jesus, they can’t seem to get it right. I’d love to know where in the Gospel the Good Shepherd told his followers that they asked too many questions. Before going to the cross, did he instruct his disciples to make sure his sheep don’t ask too many questions? 🤔
Covin / pandemic was a blessing it gave the JW’s breathing room to RELAX from the Mundane routine of KH meetings and Field service …Many Rank and File members ZOOM right outta the WT organization…LOL 🤣🤣🤣
How many elder's kids got a pass while they come down hard on others? I really don't blame the elder's kids, they had to grow up without a father.
Oh definitely….good ole boy mentality 😉
However, it worked out for the best!!! ❤ TY for watching!
@@evaarnold5838Just curious how old your son was when he got baptized? And thank you for sharing your story.
@@michellekrance 13 or 14 if I remember correctly
@@michellekrance I think 13 or 14 , I honestly don’t remember 🤦🏼♀️
@@evaarnold5838 No worries if you don’t remember exactly. I never understood how a 13 year old could get baptized but they legally can’t work, drive, vote or drink alcohol. I heard one story of an ex JW and she was only 8 years old when she got baptized! 😮
Especially the arrogant elders.....They terrorize the loyal worshipers!!! They bullying them with many devilish ways!!
5:08 we used to say "Your worst enemy in the truth (organisation) is better than your best friend in the world" an awful concept for those abused internally
Their friendship is for sure hypocritical!!! We have taste it for years........
Eva, Yes, it is like being racist, or being forced to be blind
Not being allowed to love people for their good qualities, instead distancing from them, because the religion demands it.
On the other hand, you not wanting to be friends with people who have no friends proves you are not of God and do not know him
What a delightful lady!
❤ Thank you!
Thanks!
Thanks for watching 🩵
TY ❤
Enjoy your story. I wish I had a picture of the rat pack at my house!
I love Gabor Mate too…..he’s helped me too so much
You're having a great messiah life! Enjoy!
Most guys don't have friends. So there's something wrong with most of us.
1:12 Bro Russell died in 1916. She said her family got the truth from Russell in the 1920s. Im confused
I totally apologize for the confusion, I realized my error when I replayed the interview 🤦🏼♀️
Actually 2 errors…It was in the 1930’s and it was Rutherford. Was not intentional, at all!
You won't GET DF for that miss take we all love what you are doing, keep up the good work Eva's story a bit like ours, all the best to everyone Chow Now lol *****...
Opps, I meant to write Vevian. Thanks again for the interview. ❤
Thank you for watching 🤍
Elders and compared to the Gestapo. Who the heck are they ?? What is this Bible quotation that says, " love and understanding, because God is love." God said."Come, let's reason together"
I like you so much
I encourage everyone to leave
No justice in this cult.
So the kid was "repentant" for goofing around in the store?
C.T. Russell died in 1916.
Sorry I misspoke.. I don’t have memory of the exact date, I wasn’t there. 🤦🏼♀️
Did Jesus and disciples ever say Jehovah or Jehovah god? Governing body is not in the Bible
THE BIBLE teaches that Jesus was MADE As Lord and Christ and as Son (ACTS 2:36, Prov 8, HEB 1:5), CREATED/PRODUCED/INSTALLED (Prov 8) , COME INTO BEING/MADE (Mat 21:42 - egeneto) and GIVEN LIFE by the Father - John 5:26 and it uses TODAY (Heb 1:5), and uses future tenses and is a prophecy in Isa 9:6 (Isa 9:6, - WILL BE) . If you are called MADE AND CREATED AND GIVEN LIFE, and NEVER CALLED in the BIBLE as Creator or Maker , then you are A CREATION. ALL FROM THE BIBLE
From the Lord was this (this is referring to the chief cornerstone who is Jesus) , the word WAS is egeneto (made or came into being) - Matthew 21:42 and the exact Greek word used in John 1:3 - MADE, egeneto (came into being) - JESUS WAS MADE/CAME INTO BEING FROM THE FATHER , yes, Jesus was MADE/CREATED!, See also Acts 2:36, Heb 1:5, 1 john 5
@@robertmardis2110 not exactly the same, Jesus became flesh and GOD the Father IS NOT MAN - Hosea 11:9 and does not change
@Mr. D. C. I agree with that...but Jesus and the father are of the same nature
@@robertmardis2110 They are SPIRITs and Jesus was MADE/BORN/PRODUCED/COME INTO BEING, all from the Bible
@@mr.d.c.1914.1 I agree their all spirits....your missing the point! Jesus and the angels are not equal! I suggest you reread the book of John closely!
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” John 1: 1. RV. Jesus was made a man (incarnation), but he was eternally with God because He is of the same divine nature. Jesus is God and Man. 😊
She's cute!
