Everything that can get you removed/disfellowshipped from Jehovah's Witnesses

There are myriad rules and taboos in the Jehovah's Witnesses, but which violations will get you thrown out and shunned? In this video, requested by my patrons and channel members, I condense the list of "gross sins" down to 20.

I guess I will never be a J.W because I was guilty of 16 out of 20. Thanks Lloyd for stopping me dead in my tracks😂. I just threw Enjoying Life Forever in my trash can.

Thank you Lloyd for everything that you do, it's most appreciated. I was never bbbbabtized with the cult cuz I recognized the charlatance when I see many.

My grandfather had Schizophrenia and would tell us he spoke with Jehovah and sometimes Satan. Plus, he was abused and had an extreme temper. Also had awful hygiene issues because he refused to wash his clothes, take baths, or use deodorant because he was extremely tight regarding his money. He threatened to shoot people, slit their throat and put them in a wooden box on a regular basis. However, despite these things, his brother was an elder and my grandfather received special treatment because of favoritism from his elder brother and others that were related in the congregation down in Lousisana. lol this would be another good video. How coverups can protect you from being disfellowshipped.

There's only one thing that ever gets you disfellowshipped, not bowing to the authority of the elders. Even if you're right or justified. Ask the people who were disfellowshipped to cover up CSA.

If joining another religion means that you’re an apostate, then 3/4’s of ALL congregations are apostates since they came from another religion 🤣

[moniquedelaney]

Thank you for reminding us of what we, never ins, have been missing out 😂😂😂

[Beautyrest]

Wow! Thanks so much Lloyd!! How many of these reason are really in the Bible and how many are actually in the elders book?

[Batise]

I may or may not have done several of the "bad" behavior items

[hereticjonathan]

Jesus parable of the Prodigal Son blows disfellowshipping right out of the water, just on that one point alone.

[jamesblair]

I was soft shunned when I grew my beard back in 2016 then I stopped going every since then

[Jobson]

Can confirm, you don't want this shunning

I was disfellowshipped for having remarried my husband of 25 years. He had disassociated 6 months earlier. A lot of pressure was put on me because my spirituality was at stake. We got divorced but realized we had made a mistake. We secretly remarried and a week later I was disfellowshipped. So, my husband was my ticket to freedom. 🎉🎉🎉

is relative in the JW org...lots of drinking...never heard of a drunk getting df'd & I knew a few who were known alcoholics...most things depend on your connections. In one case a single "friend" was messing with a married guy (well connected) for 10 yrs ...she confessed to the elders & was df'd even tho she confessed ... he was df'd & appealed to Bethel who reversed the decision...so he was "reproved" instead of Df'd...WTF??? The same happened with this guy's wife years before...the married guy she was messing with was DF'd & she was "reproved" SO hypoctitical & dysfunctional? Makes your head spin ... SO grateful to have woken up with some life yet to live...❤ Thank you Lloyd for helping people know the "truth" ... The " real truth" that 🤗

My husband got disfellowshipped for not accepting 1914 in 1982… told on by brothers wife !

Watching the video for the second time.
The alcoholic point is quite interesting since it is a huge problem in JW.
After I went full Pimo I barely touch alcohol anymore.
Its not needed anymore.
Yet I watch the instagram stories of people in the congregation and its always wine every week.
Yes, we are Europeans but the ammount is far higher them normal consumption.
