    Peace & Security - Historical Loaded Language for Jehovah's Witnesses

    **NEW LIGHT ALERT***  The Governing Body has mastered using loaded language. After decades of promising that two words in 1 Thessalonians would kick off the fall of religion, the Great Tribulation and ultimately Armageddon, the February 2026 Watchtower announces 'new light' where they admit they don't know when this cry of peace & security is going to happen. Imagine that. TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast

    Jehovah's Witnesses & the Death of Character

    For an organization that claims they were chosen by Jesus Christ of the Bible to represent him on earth, one would expect to find people of utmost character. Is that what you see in Jehovah's Witnesses? From the serious, including shunning and deadly medical advice, to the mundane, including the way they interact on social media... any semblance of character has died inside Jehovah's Witnesses.

    Reminding Jehovah's Witnesses to Use Their Time Wisely... Like Joseph?

    Governing Body member Kenneth Cook Jr. reminds Jehovah's Witnesses that   Armageddon is imminent and they can practice good time management by acting like Joseph, son of Jacob.

    Growing Up a Jehovah's Witness in the 1980's

    We believed we were the generation that would never experience death. We also were moon walking, wearing leg warmers, dressing like the guys in Miami Vice or RATT. If you dodged Satan, the Smurfs, led a 'double life,' know all the words to Purple Rain and still knocked on doors Saturday mornings... join us!

    Why Are Jehovah's Witnesses Built Like Big Business?

    The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses claim they're built on spirituality; a theocratic infrastructure that goes back to Jesus and the apostles in the first century. So why does it look like a modern day corporate environment, including sales people, middle management and more?  TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast

    2025 October JW Broadcast Wants Us to Think Like Jehovah?

    This month's spiritual food from the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses encourages us to 'elevate' our thinking to match the way Jehovah thinks. Minus genocides, teaching false things for decades and much more. They show us what it means to have 'elevated thinking' by taking us to .... King David?
