Just Look Up and See the Stars You'll Know Who You Can Trust? ???????????? Who Can You Trust? Man? Pilots? The Plane? ??????? ?How many of us have flown in an airplane ?? friends? When we fly from one place to another, we put our trust in the pilot to get us to our destination safely and in one piece. ?However sometimes we may encounter some turbulence in the skies,as long as we arrive safely, this is only a small price to pay. ?Likewise with today's thought, consider the following quote, "JEHOVAH PROMISES A SAFE LANDING, NOT A CALM PASSAGE". ?When we serve Jehovah, we often think that we will have total protection from the elements of th…

Trust in Jehovah—The God of “Times and Seasons” ??????? “He is changing times and seasons, removing kings and setting up kings.”—DAN. 2:21. ?????? JEHOVAH GOD provided the means to measure time long before he created man. On the fourth creative day, God said: “Let luminaries come to be in the expanse of the heavens to make a division between the day and the night; and they must serve as signs and for seasons and for days and years.” (Gen. 1:14, 19, 26) In harmony with JehovahÂ’s will, that is, of course, what took place. ??????? Until now, however, scientists have debated the nature of time. “Time is one of the worldÂ’s deepest myst…

Sometimes People Run From the Truth That Jehovah's Witnesses Teach - ??? Keep Smiling the End is Not Yet! ??????? 19 For it is written: “I will make the wisdom of the wise men perish, and the intelligence of the intellectuals I will reject.”20 Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this system of things? Has not God made the wisdom of the world foolish? 21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not get to know God through its wisdom, God was pleased through the foolishness of what is preached to save those believing." (1 Cor. 1:19 -21) Â

What does this one mean at Ezekiel 39:15? "When those who pass through the land see a human bone, they will set up a marker beside it. Then those assigned to do the burying will bury it in the valley of Hamon-Gog...And they will cleanse the land." Bethel has never commented on this verse, so I am not allowed to speak of it until they tell me what to think. (I just threw that in for @Albert Michelson and crew) But if I could comment on it, I might offer that it tells how every last vestige of human thinking is cleared out after Armageddon, some of which are so skillfully interwoven by governments, business, contemporary thinkers and the like, that their effe…

"The whole land will become desolate." “A scorching wind from the barren hills of the desert I saw the land, and look! it was empty and desolate. I looked at the heavens, and their light was no more.

Jesus Teaches About God’s Kingdom ????? Jesus teaches his disciples many things, yet focuses on a single theme—GodÂ’s Kingdom ????? ?1. Jesus was designated King. Jesus directly said that he was the foretold Messiah. (John 4:25, 26) He also showed that he was the King that the prophet Daniel had seen in vision. Jesus told his apostles that he would one day sit on a “glorious throne” and that they too would sit on thrones. (Matthew 19:28) ????? ?2. GodÂ’s Kingdom would promote true justice. Jesus indicated that the Kingdom would do away with the greatest injustice by sanctifying, or making holy, the name of Jehovah God and clearing it of …

They “Saw” the Things Promised “They did not receive the fulfillment of the promises; but they saw them from a distance.”—HEBREWS 11:13. ????? JEHOVAH has given us a wonderful gift. It is the ability to imagine things we havenot seen. This ability helps us to look forward to good things in the future and also to plan ahead and avoid problems. Jehovah knows the future, and he tells us some of the things we can look forward to. Although we cannot see them, we can imagine them and havefaith that they will happen.—2 Corinthians 4:18. ????? Of course, sometimes we imagine things that will never happen. For example, a little girl might imagine tha…

Throw All Your Anxiety on Jehovah ????? Our loving heavenly Father came to the aid of his servants in the past, and today he makes it possible for us to gain considerable relief from distress or anxiety. The Bible urges us: “Throw all your anxiety [“cares; worries,” ftn.] on him, because he cares for you.” (1 Pet. 5:7) How, though, can you do that? Let us consider four ways that you can do so—by means of heartfelt prayer, by reading GodÂ’s Word and meditating on it, by tapping into JehovahÂ’s holy spirit, and by sharing your feelings with a trusted confidant. As we examine these four ways, see if you can identify practical steps that you want to take. ?…

"Let your Kingdom come." (Matt.6:10) - 100 Years of Kingdom Rule—How Does It Affect You? ????? ON A mountain near Capernaum in the spring of 31 C.E., Jesus Christ taught his followers to pray: “Let your Kingdom come.” (Matt. 6:10) Today, many doubt if the Kingdom will ever come. However, we are confident that our sincere prayers for GodÂ’s Kingdom to come will be answered. ????? Jehovah will use the Kingdom to unify his family in heaven and on earth. That divine purpose will be realized. (Isa. 55:10, 11) In fact, Jehovah has already become King in our day! The thrilling events of the past 100 years are proof of this. God is performing great and wond…

Strengthen Your Trust in Jehovah! - We May Also Be Thrown In Places Like This! - Where is Your Trust or Do You Have Fear? ????? In the Persian Empire in the days of the prophet Daniel, this took place. The law, which King Darius did enact, stipulated: “Whoever makes a petition to any god or man for thirty days except to [the] king should be thrown to the lionsÂ’ pit.”—Daniel 6:7-9 ????? What would Daniel do under the threat of death? Would he continue to trust in his God, Jehovah, or would he compromise and do as the king dictated? The record tells us: “Daniel, as soon as he knew that the writing had been signed, entered into his house, and, the w…

Then why did the Watchtower ever change anything if everything was directly from scripture? Obviously you are saying that this might not have been true last year, because some things have already changed since then, but it must be true this year. But if it's true this year, then you are claiming that any changes made for next year are no longer directly from Scripture, unless of course you are arguing that the Scriptures contradict themselves. You are using cult-speak even though the Watchtower is not a cult. Obviously we need to question ourselves first, but to answer your first question, it's our Christian obligation to question the anointed ones. You've seen a …
