I'm willing to take the chance to believe you are sincere and whom you say you are. The reason I'm willing to believe this, is in part, because Jehovah's organization has hit rock bottom and we need someone who loves Jehovah -- as comes across in your kind "voice" -- to steer it around. Another reason is because everything you've said thus far rings true.
My sentiments of being willing to believe what some consider the "unbelievable" are found in the song made famous by Bette Middler, "The Rose." If you haven't heard this song, please ask one of the friends to get it for you, and listen to every word of this hauntingly relevant melody. Then you'll understand how many can accept you as real through the dense harbor-fog that otherwise masks our true identities in this place.
Dear brother, I know that the angels are real ("What is the Truth About Angels?" AWAKE, Nov. 22, 1999), and these heavenly brothers of ours are actively involved in fighting the mechanations of evil spirit forces. I know this because I'm very close to one, and have seen several others. Nobody would believe me, or they would claim that these angels are demon angels but Jehovah's Holy Spirit tells me differently. I say this now, in this post, because for the first time I have the courage simply to state what I know is truth, as you have shown in your courage to come here against all odds. On several occasions when I almost gave up believing, the angel of Jehovah conveyed something through a thought or a dream. In that thought or in that dream, I experienced minor but not insignificant events that happened. A friend announcing his engagement, an elder weeping because he learned his wife had cancer, and on. Soon thereafter, these things really happened as I earlier had seen them. The true God that few these days dare to believe in, has not let me down because I dared to believe in Him. I sense you are such a believer and have experienced your share of angelic encounters, perhaps I'm mistaken but I think so.
Keep the fine fight for the faith. Our baptisms into Jesus Christ were for a purpose.
