Everlasting Life on Earth! - God-Given Hope! - Don't Give up Hope! ~ ??????? “The creation was subjected to futility . . . on the basis of hope.”—ROM. 8:20 ??????? For the most part, the religions of Christendom have ignored the hope of everlasting life on earth. Whereas the Bible teaches that the soul dies, the majority of churches teach the unscriptural doctrine that man has an immortal soul that survives death and lives on in the spirit realm. ??????? (Ezekiel 18:20) The soul that is sinning—it itself will die. A son himself will bear nothing because of the error of the father, and a father himself will bear nothing because of…

"The dead themselves do not praise Jah."—Ps. 115:17. BE CAREFUL BUYING AND SELLING IN THE KINGDOM HALL REMINDS US OF THE MONEY CHANGERS IN JESUS' DAY! ??⚖️?? “How are you feeling?” This common expression betrays a grim reality. Because our first parents allowed Satan to distance them from Jehovah, we are all subject to illness. Sickness serves Satan’s purpose, for when we are sick, it is harder for us to serve Jehovah. And if we die, we cannot serve him at all. (Ps. 115:17) ??⚖️?? Naturally, then, we want to do what we can to stay healthy.* And we should be concerned about our brothers’ health and welfare. ??⚖️?? It is important, howev…

Avoid Being “Quickly Shaken From Your Reason”! ????? “Brothers, . . . we request of you not to be quickly shaken from your reason.”—2 THESSALONIANS 2:1, 2. ????? DECEPTION and lies are very common in the world we live in. This should not surprise us. The Bible clearly says that Satan the Devil is an expert at deceiving people and that he is the ruler of this world. (1 Timothy 2:14; 1 John 5:19) ????? The closer we get to the end of this wicked world, the angrier Satan becomes because he has only “a short period of time” left. (Revelation 12:12) So we can expect that those influenced by the Devil will become more and more dishonest. They will…

WHY ARE SODOM AND GOMORRAH WARNINGS FOR US TODAY AT THE TIME OF THE END? — ?☄️???☄️?

WHY ARE SODOM AND GOMORRAH WARNINGS FOR US TODAY AT THE TIME OF THE END? It will be just like Sodom and Gomorrah, Judgement Day. Long but Good! ?☄️???☄️? Jesus said: “It will be more endurable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah on Judgment Day than for that city.” (Mt 10:15; 11:23, 24) Of course, Jude 7 says that Sodom and Gomorrah “are placed before us as a warning example by undergoing the judicial punishment of everlasting fire.” So Jesus’ statement evidently was simply making use of hyperbole to emphasize how unlikely it was that people from certain first-century Jewish cities would repent even on Judgment Day. ?☄️???☄️? Everlasting Destruction. S…

King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba - Amazed at His Wisdom. Knowledge and Wisdom! - A Gift from Jehovah! ~ ????? (Sol′o·mon) [from a root meaning “peace”] (1 Kings 10:1-25) . . .Now the queen of She′ba was hearing the report about Sol′o·mon in connection with the name of Jehovah.

::: The Antennae ::: ????? Some 60 million light-years away in the southerly constellation Corvus, two large galaxies have collided. But stars in the two galaxies – NGC 4038 and NGC 4039 – don’t collide in the course of the ponderous, billion year or so long event. ❤️?❤️ Instead, their large clouds of molecular gas and dust do, triggering furious episodes of star formation. Spanning about 500 thousand light-years, this stunning view reveals new star clusters and matter flung far from the scene of the accident by gravitational tidal forces. Of course, the visual appearance of the far-flung arcing structures gives the galaxy pair their popular name – Th…

What Does Jehovah See in Your Heart? - We Must Hate What is Bad and Love What is Good! ~ ????? "Jehovah, he sees what the heart is.” (1 Sam 16:7) ????? Jehovah’s purpose does not depend on the wavering loyalties of imperfect humans. In the Scriptures, the heart is often used figuratively to represent what a person is inside—his desires, his thoughts, his emotions, and his affections. So when the Bible says that God sees the heart, it means that he looks beyond outward appearances and focuses on what a person really is. ????? To all who yearn to worship Jehovah in an acceptable way, he says: “Hate what is bad, and love what is good.” (Amos 5:…

Our Creator will Save Us! ??❄️?? "Every breathing thing—let it praise Jah. Praise Jah!" (Psalms 150:6) ??❄️?? What Some Predict Many believe that human activities are a major cause of global warming, which may have catastrophic consequences for the climate and the environment. For example, large-scale melting of land-based ice and the expansion of the oceans as water warms could cause sea levels to rise drastically. ??❄️?? At the same time, rising temperatures could intensify storms, floods, and droughts.

"No crushed reed will he break, and no smoldering wick will he extinguish."—Isa. 42:3. ??????? Jesus’ tender heart moved him to speak tenderly to others, especially to the downtrodden. ??????? Mild-Tempered but Courageous Jesus was a zealous Kingdom proclaimer who was mild-tempered but courageous in dealing with people.

No resident will say: “I am sick.” —Isa. 33:24. There is no doubt that God has the power to affect someone’s health. The Bible confirms that. At times, he punished individuals with sickness, such as the Pharaoh in Abraham’s day and later Moses’ sister, Miriam. (Gen. 12:17; Num. 12:9, 10; 2 Sam. 24:15) God warned that if the Israelites proved unfaithful, he would afflict them with “every sickness or plague.” (Deut. 28:58-61) On the other hand, Jehovah could remove diseases or prevent sickness. (Ex. 23:25; Deut. 7:15) Also, he could heal people. After Job had been so sick that he longed to die, God healed him! (Job 2:7; 3:11-13; 42:10, 16) Yes, God definitely has the …

14 "But solid food belongs to mature people, to those who through use have their powers of discernment trained to distinguish both right and wrong." —(Hebrews 5:14). ??? In line with the model Jesus provided, a Christian who wants to grow spiritually will not be satisfied with a superficial knowledge of the Bible. He will regularly dig deeply into its contents, realizing that “solid food belongs to mature people.” (Heb. 5:14) ??? Clearly, a mature Christian wants to have “accurate knowledge of the Son of God.” (Eph. 4:13) ??? Do you schedule daily Bible reading? Do you follow a routine of personal study, making every effort to set aside tim…

“Your word is a lamp to my foot, and a light to my roadway.” ????? This points to two related functions of God’s Word: A lamp to our foot can prevent a fall by illuminating where we walk. A light to our roadway, signifies that we allow God’s Word illuminate the direction or path our life takes. —(Ps 119:105). ????? A key point of Psalm 119 is the value of God’s word, or message.* Likely as a memory aid, the writer made this an alphabetic song. Its 176 verses are based on successive letters of the Hebrew alphabet. In the original Hebrew, each of the psalm’s 22 stanzas has 8 lines that begin with the same letter. This psalm refers to God’s word, law, re…
