Thanks for replies everyone.
Thanks for replies everyone. Good point Nick Hassan – 'seek first the kingdom'. I am really out searching for bible truth, but yes this is one of the most important things I must do.
David – I believe there are many people out there who either dont believe in the Trinity doctrine, or accept it simply because their church teaches it, but are confused about it. It is a doctrine that when thought about, makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. It is nothing more than a fancy man made doctrine. The deceipt comes in whereby they call it a holy mystery, because their explanation of it is illogical. They also resort to deceiving people by then explaining that it is one of Gods holy mysterys to cover over any doubts??
Lightenup- Thanks for advice. I have been on another forum similiar to this one and there were conflicting views on that one as well. But I am however hoping that the general tone on this site is more positive than negative. From what I have read so far. There seems to be many people who have a love for God on this forum (albeit with differing views) and I look forward to discussing the bible freely, which should be our right as Christians.

February 15, 2009 at 12:35 am#121601evergreenParticipantHi everyone
I am new to this forum and have to say that I am a little excited at what I am reading at the moment. I am currently an inactive Jehovahs Witness. I have not been attending our local meetings for a number of years now due to what I have learned about their past. This would include the failed prophecies, the flip flopping, the deceit and the lack of real love that existed in my last congregation.
I wrote to my presiding overseer in my congregation explaining why I would not be attending any more meetings, and he was very understanding. This man (in my eyes) is a genuine good man who understood my feelings at the time and said that he would not pursue the matter. He even said that the door would always be open if I wanted to go back. But, In my heart of hearts I know I can never go back. My knowledge and rational reasoning tell me that it would be wrong for me ever to set foot inside a Kingdom Hall again.
What makes me sad is that my wife and daughter are Jehovahs Witnesses, including many relatives and friends. I know one day I will have to stand up for what I believe in rather than hide away from what I truly believe in, although I have not found as yet.
In saying this, although there is much that the Jehovahs Witnesses got wrong, there is also a lot of things I feel they got right; such as the doctrine regarding the trinity. I simply dont beleive in the Trinity. I have tried to understand the Trinity, as most Christian denominations follow this Doctrine, but keep thinking it is a load of nonsense and simply doesnt make sense in my eyes?
For a number of years now, I have been searching the internet to find a site such as this that explains why the doctrine of the Trinity is wrong. I can only say that I am very excited reading heaven.nets view on the Trinity Doctrine and find that at last, there are people who can see through this very confusing Doctrine. I am looking very forward to reading more on this web site and hope that it will aid me in my search for God.
Thanks
