I think he needs a Bible study? Any volunteers? Many Searching for God! Perhaps many more to be found? I sometimes question if God exists: Archbishop of Canterbury admits he sometimes has moments of doubt - ??? Archbishop Justin Welby said sometimes he questions if God exists He said it is hard for Christians to accept that God allows suffering He said he regularly prays while on his morning jog near his London home Asked how to persuade people who think religion is outdated, he said Christians did not have the answer to why God allows suffering. ‘We turn the tide in a number of ways,Â’ he said. ‘We know about Jesus, we canÂ’t explain…

CAN YOU BE JEHOVAH’S FRIEND? ????? When some people read about JehovahÂ’s impressive qualities, they feel afraid and think, ‘God is so powerful, so important, and so far away, why would he care about me?Â’ But is that how God wants us to feel? Not at all. Jehovah wants to be close to us. The Bible says that God is “not far off from each one of us.” (Acts 17:27) ????? God wants you to draw close to him, and he promises that “he will draw close to you.”—James 4:8. How can you become GodÂ’s friend? Jesus said: “This means everlasting life, their coming to know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ.” (John 17:3) ?…

GuiltדCleanse Me From My Sin” ????? GUILT can be a crushing burden. “My errors loom over my head,” King David wrote. “Like a heavy burden, they are too much for me to bear.” (Psalm 38:4) Some Christians have become overwhelmed by excessive sadness, convinced that Jehovah could never forgive them. (2 Corinthians 2:7) ????? “Let Us Set Matters Straight Between Us” Jehovah does not abandon repentant sinners. In fact, he reaches out to them! In the parable of the prodigal son, Jesus compared Jehovah to a loving father whose son abandoned his family and pursued a debauched life. In time, the son decided to return home. “While [the son] was sti…

Will We See Literal "Signs" in the Sun, Moon and Stars? ??? NASA detects the biggest solar flare of the decade The Bible says: " there will be signs in the sun and on the moon and in the stars, and on the earth anguish of nations, for not knowing the way out because of the roar of the sea and its agitation, while men swoon by fear and expectation Of the things that come about the inhabited land; because the powers of heaven will be shaken.

This is totally not something I would do. But I'm doing it because I need help. I need to live. I don't know if I can anymore. That having been said, I'm completely terrified of who I am and why I am the way I am. I'm afraid of the fears and doubts I have in my mind. I try my best not to be angry at myself or Jehovah. I have a family that loves me, a congregation that's patient with me. I know that, from a logical point of view, they wouldn't care if I told them the truth about me. I haven't acted on my desires about anything (besides pornography, i'll get to that later. it's not serious) But I'm afraid everything will change. I love my family, I can't lose them. But…

6th grader says rights violated when forced to stand for Pledge An 11-year-old boy says his decision not to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance at school got him roughed up by a teacher and lectured by another. Now both are facing disciplinary action for their actions. Stone Chaney, 11, says he's been choosing to sit for the Pledge of Allegiance since 2nd grade. He said people have asked him in the past about hsi decision not to stand but has never had an issue - until now. On the third day of the 6th grade, that all changed. "A teacher just comes up, puts her arms under my armpits and snatches me out of my chair. I say I don't stand for the pledge, she jus…

"No man can come to me unless the Father, who sent me, draws him."—John 6:44. ????? Jesus—“The Bread of Life” He explains: “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will not get hungry at all, and whoever exercises faith in me will never get thirsty at all. But as I said to you, you have even seen me and yet do not believe. . . . I have come down from heaven to do, not my own will, but the will of him who sent me. This is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose none out of all those whom he has given me, but that I should resurrect them on the last day. For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who recognizes the Son and exercises …

The Quebec court requests the adoption of a collective demand for sexual abuse against Jehovah's witnesses A trial proposes to accuse the leadership of the religious organization in Canada and the United States to protect alleged abusers The lawsuit is looking for $ 250.000 per plaintiff for moral and punitive damages. Radio-Canada says that, if approved by the court, collective action will be the first of its kind against Jehovah's witnesses, a religious movement that is already the subject of several individual trials in the United States. It is now up to the québec high court to determine whether the application is sufficiently substantiated to authori…

If Jesus Is God, Then... 1) Why did he say "the father has granted him life"(John 5:26) 2) Why did he say "nor have I come for my own initiative, no, but that one that sent me"? (John 8:42; 1 John 4:9) 3) Why did Jesus say he did not know the day or the time of great tribulation, but only the father? (Matthew 24:36) 4) Whom did Jesus pray to?(Matthew 27:46) 5) To whom did Jesus enter "in heaven himself, to appear now in front of the person of God in favor of us"? (Hebrews 9:24) 6) Why Jesus said "the father is greater  than I am"? (John 14:28) 7) Who spoke from heaven in Jesus baptism saying "this is my son"? (Matthew 3:17) 8) Who…

The Amazing Male Mouthbrooding Jawfish — such as the mottled (seen in the fourth photo with spikes on the side of its head from a fireworm attack), the yellowhead, the banded, and the cardinalfish seen here — use their mouths to protect their eggs until the fry hatch. Mouthbrooding fish are able to produce smaller numbers of offspring with a higher chance of survival than species that offer no broodcare. the males, however, are not able to eat during this period of incubation (which can last anywhere from one to three weeks), but will open their mouths, spitting the eggs out and then sucking them back in to keep them clean and aerated. Wonderful Creation o…

Twice saved from the Houston floods, but still, mysteriously, a victim Houston - it was a difficult choice, but in the end it was not a choice. A small rescue boat had climbed down the road, offering help. Carl Ellis was with his fragile 73-Year-old, Wilma Jean. The boat had room for one. The water was already on Mr..'s knees. Ellis, so there was no time to wait for the rescuers with more space. His mother would have to go alone. Using the back of a van as a runway, Ellis helped his mother get into the boat, with his belongings tied in trash bags. There were no life jackets, but it was a short trip and the rescuers promised to return to him. He never saw …

Jehovah hears our pleas and understands us even when no one else does. His response to our prayers is a beautiful expression of his enduring love for us. We can learn much from prayers recorded in God’s Word. At times, therefore, we may find it very beneficial to consider such prayers during family worship. Reflecting on how JehovahÂ’s servants of the past expressed their deepest thoughts to God may help us to enrich our own prayers. For instance, consider JonahÂ’s contrite prayer from the belly of a huge fish. (Jonah 1:17–2:10) Review SolomonÂ’s heartfelt prayer to Jehovah at the inauguration of the temple. (1 Ki. 8:22-53) Meditate on the model prayer that Jesus offered…
