Use a ruse to protect yourself and your family when leaving JWs.
The Watchtower praises Rahab (Joshua 2; 6:17-25):
"Rahab's ruse worked! ... Using a simple strategy, she had misdirected men who had no right to the truth and she had saved innocent servants of Jehovah." [w13 11/1]
Ruse: Misdirecting those who have no right to the truth. Not telling the truth to those who do not have the right to the truth.According to the WT, the state officials do not have the right to the truth: For example, to gain legal recognition in some countries (e.g. in the Eastern Europe), the WT representatives stated, that JWs do not teach their members to "abstain from blood" transfusions. The organization told its members that it was necessary to resort to a ruse to be granted legal recognition.
You can and you should start using a ruse to protect yourself and your family right now.
You can also use a ruse to win your JW members over.
Be Like Rahab. It might bring you peace of mind to define ruse in the following way:
Not telling the truth to those who do not have the right to the truth at this time: those who would do harm to you, to your spouse, to your family. You can misdirect and mislead people like this by giving them a false impression. You can freely use a ruse with anybody (including the elders) who could harm you or your loved ones in any way, to protect yourself and your family.Reflect- What kind of ruse (strategy) can you start using with your JW spouse and family members not to lose them but to win them over?
- What kind of ruse can you start using within the congregation and with the elders?
- What new possibilities will a ruse create in your life?
This was a short sample from a chapter in the book.
The methods from this Exit Manual can help you and your family the same way these have helped many others.
