Police forces interrupted a meeting in Orel, Russia, just a few hours ago.Our brothers and sisters, who evidently are already trained, remain calm while two seniors are required to show the list of the publishers. It may be noted that the board are practically empty of information.Since this group publicly denounce the abuse of authority on defenceless people and peaceful, persecuted for their faith in a country that boasts of religious freedom. Government's hypocrisy

Goa sect skips polls, waits for 'kingdom of god' instead

PANAJI: The build up to the elections, the hullabaloo on polling day and the much-awaited results on counting day mean nothing for the 600-odd members of the Christian sect Jehovah's Witnesses in Goa. Just like their counterparts in other countries and "like the first century- Christians", JW members choose to maintain political neutrality for religious reasons."There are no restrictions on us and our individual decisions," one member said, adding, "The Bible says we must obey God rather than man. Whether to obey God or not is our own decision." A 62-year-old member from Margao, on the condition of anonymity, said he was introduced to the sect as a child when …

Your Smile is a gift to share... When someone gives you a beaming smile, how do you respond ? Most likely you smile back And you probably feel happier too ! Yes, genuine smiles—whether from friends or total strangers—are infectious, and they evoke good feelings When you smile you may also be doing yourself a favor... The benefits, studies suggest, include increased confidence and happiness and reduced feelings of stress. Frowning, by comparison, may have the opposite effect ! Smiles Boosted My Morale - Magdalena, was one of Jehovah’s Witnesses during World War II She was sent with other family members to the Ravensbrück con…

Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.—Matt. 6:12. Jehovah wants us to be concerned not only about our own spiritual welfare but also about that of others, including those who might have sinned against us. Usually, such sins are minor and give us an opportunity to show that we truly love our brothers and are willing to forgive, as God has mercifully forgiven us. (Col. 3:13) Sadly, as imperfect humans, we may sometimes harbor a grudge against another. (Lev. 19:18) If we talk about the matter, others may side with us, causing a division in the congregation. If we allow such a situation to continue, it would show a lack of appreciation for God’s mer…

The Governing Body are responsible for the brutal rape, torture and murder of Jehovah’s witnesses, this is shocking and the people responsible cannot be excused for their actions, but this could have been prevented by purchasing a political card. The reasoning the Watchtower leaders used when setting their brothers up to come in line for such persecution was that Witnesses are to be “no part of the world”. Yet at the same time that Witnesses were forbidden to hold a card in Malawi a comparable situation arose in Mexico, with the Governing Body ruling in the opposite direction for Mexican brothers. In Mexico, military service was compulsory for young men. On completio…

"We are not ignorant of his designs."—2 Cor. 2:11 ??? “WE HAVE A STRUGGLE . . . AGAINST THE WICKED SPIRIT FORCES” ??? How does Satan fight against individual Christians? ??? Satan cannot win the war, so to speak, but he can make casualties of us as individuals if we let our guard down. Satan knows that he can devour us if he can weaken our bond with Jehovah. How does Satan try to achieve this? By attacking us intensely, personally, and cunningly. Let us consider these main strategies of Satan. ??? Why is Satan intensely attacking Jehovah’s people? ??? Intense attacks. The apostle John stated: “The whole world is lying in…

BEAR [Heb., dov or dohv; Gr., arʹkos]. The Syrian brown bear (Ursus arctos syriacus) is the animal formerly encountered in Palestine, and is still found in N Syria, NW Iran, and S Turkey. It is most often light brown in color and averages about 140 kg (310 lb) in weight. Despite seeming awkwardness, the bear can move with great rapidity even over rough ground, some varieties attaining a speed of nearly 48 km (30 mi) an hour for a short distance. Bears are also good swimmers, and most of them can climb. The idea that bears hug or squeeze their victims to death is not borne out by the facts. When engaged in a struggle, the bear strikes with its huge paws, and…

CASEY SHEPHERD That of god and a socket wrench It’s a gorgeous Saturday here in Oakdale, and I’m sitting on my porch with some coffee. The Jehovah’s Witnesses are out this morning. It’s a pleasant day for testifying, and they’re making the most of it. I find their presence calming. The ladies’ perfume on the breeze, their good intentions and just the sight of folks walking through the neighborhood puts me in a peaceful mood. I don’t agree with a lick of what they believe theologically, but I’m thankful they’re here. I myself am a Quaker. Quaker spirituality is difficult to summarize, but most Quakers center worship on the practice of gathering together and s…

“May my prayer be prepared as incense before you.” (Ps. 141:2) ?????? Making Whole-Souled Sacrifices for Jehovah King David sang to Jehovah: “May my prayer be prepared as incense before you.” (Ps. 141:2) Think for a moment about your prayers—about their regularity and their quality. The book of Revelation likens “the prayers of the holy ones” to incense in that acceptable prayers rise to Jehovah like a sweet-smelling and pleasant odor. ?????? (Rev. 5:8) In ancient Israel, the incense that was regularly offered on Jehovah’s altar had to be carefully and precisely prepared. It was acceptable to Jehovah only if offered according to the guidelines …

"Mr. D. - An Unwelcome Visitor" LONG BUT WORTH IT! ???? Talk by District Overseer given when visiting the host congregation in Queens, NY. Long but good!! ??? He started off by saying that we are going to talk about Mr D. He said that Mr D. visits all of Jehovah’s servants at one time or another; sometimes it’s a short visit and other times it’s a lengthy stay. He asked what we thought the D stood for and he said “no, its not Devil”. It is DISCOURAGEMENT. ??? Discouragement is the most effective tool against Jehovah’s people, even more than immorality and materialism. If we allow Mr. D to hang around, he can cause us to fail to muster up co…

Nehemia Gordon above Note that said George Buchanan, professor emeritus at Wesley Theological Seminary, Washington, DC, USA: ” In ancient times, parents often give their children the names of their deities. This means that the children pronounced the names as if pronouncing the name of the deity. The Tetragrammaton was included in the names of people, and they always wore the middle vowel . “He added: ” This [Jehovah] is the correct pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton, as can be seen clearly in the pronunciation of proper names in the first Testament (PT), poems, Aramaic documents from the 5th century Greek translations of the name in the Dead Sea Scr…

World’s Deepest Hole Lies Hidden Beneath this Rusty Metal Cap ???〽️〽️〽️? The Kola Superdeep Borehole, an abandoned Cold War attempt by the Soviets to drill to the center of the Earth, stretches a third of the way through the continental crust. ???〽️〽️〽️? Beneath this rusty old metal cap lies some of our world’s deepest mysteries. Though it measures just 9 inches in diameter, the hole beneath the cap extends 40,230 feet under the Earth, or 7.5 miles. That’s roughly a third of the way through the Baltic continental crust. It’s the deepest borehole in the world. ???〽️〽️〽️? The Kola Superdeep Borehole was drilled between 1970 and 1994 in a Cold W…

Why Is Armageddon Necessary? - THE ONLY ANSWER TO A WORLD OF PEACE FOREVER! ~ ???? Do you find it hard to imagine that Jehovah, a “God of love,” would assign his Son, the “Prince of Peace,” to fight a war? (2 Corinthians 13:11; Isaiah 9:6) ???? Understanding their motives will doubtless make matters clear. The book of Psalms describes Jesus as a mounted warrior. Why does he fight? Christ rides, the psalmist explains, “in the cause of truth and humility and righteousness.” He wages war because he loves righteousness and hates wickedness.—Psalm 45:4, 7 ???? Likewise, the Bible describes Jehovah’s reaction to the injustice that he sees in the world …

[Treat] older women as mothers, . . . younger women as sisters, with all chasteness.—1 Tim. 5:2. The Bible helps us to avoid improper desires by giving counsel on how to treat those of the opposite sex. Such counsel clearly rules out flirting. Some may view the use of body language, gestures, and glances that have romantic overtones as harmless in that these do not involve any physical contact. But flirting, or responding to it, may arouse unclean thoughts that can lead to serious sexual wrongdoing. It has happened before—it can happen again. Joseph acted wisely in this regard. When the wife of his master, Potiphar, tried to seduce him, Joseph rejected her efforts. B…
