Are the Angels working with the Preaching Work today? How can we know that? Why can you be part of this work? Angelic Help Do angels help Jehovah’s present-day servants? Yes, they do. Granted, today they do not appear visibly in order to deliver true worshipers from danger. Even in Bible times, angels only rarely intervened in such a way. Most of what they did was invisible to human eyes, as is the case today. Nonetheless, servants of God who realized that the angels were there to support them found such knowledge very encouraging. (2 Kings 6:14-17) "Immediately he sent horses and war chariots and a heavy military force there; and they proceeded to come by nigh…

The love the Lord Christ Jesus compels us. — 2 Cor. 5:14. The love Christ showed in laying down his life in our behalf according to God’s will is so outstanding that as our appreciation grows, our heart is deeply moved. Christ’s love controlled Paul. It restrained him from acting selfishly and helped him to confine his objectives to serving God and fellow humans inside and outside the congregation. ??? Meditating on the love Christ has for people stirs up gratitude within us. As a result, we realize that it would be most unfitting for us to keep on ‘sowing with a view to the flesh’ by pursuing selfish goals and living largely to gratify ourselves. Instead,…

My lips will cry out joyfully.—Ps. 71:23. ????? Jeremiah’s work of building and planting bore fruitage. Some Jews as well as non-Israelites survived Jerusalem’s destruction in 607 B.C.E. We know of the Rechabites, Ebed-melech, and Baruch. (Jeremiah 35:19) therefore this is what Jehovah of armies, the God of Israel, has said: “There will not be cut off from Jon′a·dab the son of Re′chab a man to stand before me always.”’” (Jeremiah 39:15-18) And to Jeremiah the word of Jehovah occurred while he happened to be shut up in the Courtyard of the Guard, saying: 16 “Go, and you must say to E′bed-mel′ech the E·thi·o′pi·an, ‘This is what Jehovah of armies, the G…

Is Jesus Almighty God? - WHO did Jesus Pray to? -The Bible’s Answer! ~ ????? Jesus’ opposers accused him of making himself equal to God. (John 5:18) On this account, indeed, the Jews began seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath but he was also calling God his own Father, making himself equal to God."(John 10:30-33) I and the Father are one.” 31 Once more the Jews lifted up stones to stone him. 32 Jesus replied to them: “I displayed to YOU many fine works from the Father. For which of those works are YOU stoning me?” 33 The Jews answered him: “We are stoning you, not for a fine work, but for blasphemy, even because you, alt…

Where was Jesus before God sent him to earth?Jesus lived as a spirit person in heaven before he was born in Bethlehem. He was God’s first creation and the only one created directly by God. Therefore, he is fittingly referred to as God’s only-begotten Son. In heaven, he often spoke as God’s representative. That is why he is called the Word. He also acted as God’s helper and took part in the creation of all other things. (John 1:2, 3, 14) Jesus lived with God in heaven for aeons before humankind w…

Can You Trust the Bible? Why Does Man not Consult the Bible First? Why You Can Trust God! Should not a divinely inspired book for all people contain timeless advice for living? ??? The Bible reflects an understanding of human nature that applies to every generation of mankind, and its principles are just as practical today as they were when first stated. This can easily be seen in a famous discourse given by Jesus Christ, the Founder of Christianity. It is recorded in Matthew chapters 5 to 7. This address, known as the Sermon on the Mount, shows us not only how to find true happiness but also how to settle disputes, how to pray, how to view material needs…

Armenia’s Jehovah’s Witnesses: ‘enemies of the state’
by Guest Nicole- 0 replies
- 1.4k views
Rima Grigoryan (Armine Avetisyan/OC Media) Armenian identity is so tightly interwoven with religion that it can often be heard that the only true Armenian is a follower of the Armenian Church. Contempt, discrimination, and outright hatred towards religious minorities have led to a worryingly widespread perception of them as outsiders — a threat to Armenian statehood. Deadly discrimination Anna (not her real name), 45, comes from Gyumri. She used to work as an Armenian language teacher in a local school, but was forced to leave after the school authorities discovered that she was a Pentecostal Christian. ‘I would never have thought that simply attending…

Louis Garrett IT BEGAN while I was visiting my elderly parents and uncle in , Florida. This was shortly before my uncle died a few months ago. As usual, we went to the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses on Sunday morning to attend a public talk. We heard a fine discourse, "Will You Be a Survivor of the 'Last Days'?" On the way home, my uncle said: "That talk reminded me of when I survived a terrible disaster." He paused a moment, then added: "You know, I survived the sinking of the Titanic." Later I asked my uncle, Louis Garrett, to tell me about his experience on the Titanic. "Let me go back to the beginning," he said. "I was born in 1900, in Hakoor, Leba…

Pursuing Kindness in a Hostile World ????? “The desirable thing in earthling man is his loving-kindness.”—PROVERBS 19:22 ????? Our lives are affected adversely when others treat us in an unkind manner. The unkindness could be expressed by spiteful neighbors, unfriendly strangers, even friends and family members who may, at times, act thoughtlessly. The pressure of having contact with people who are rude and who shout and curse at one another often causes much dismay. Such lack of kindness by others could make us feel hostile ourselves, and we may consider returning unkindness for unkindness. That may even lead to spiritual or physical health problems.…

A Jehovah's Witness in England embroiled in a family court dispute with his estranged wife has been barred from taking his six-year-old son to some religious events by a judge. District Judge Malcolm Dodds has refused to allow the man to take the little boy to Jehovah's Witness assemblies, annual conventions and memorials. The judge concluded that there was a risk of the youngster suffering "emotional damage". He heard that the couple had separated about a year after the man began to study the Jehovah's Witness faith. The boy now lives with his mother, who did not practise any religion. Judge Dodds said the boy was "impressionable" and might suffe…

Keep Dreaming of "Miracles" The "Miracle" is Our Creator Jehovah God, we are Loved ✨??✨??✨ Beth Moon: Diamond Nights “Silence" It has a sound, a fullness. It's heavy with sigh of tree, and space between breaths. It's ripe with pause between birdsong and crash of surf. It's golden they say. But no one tells us it's addictive.” Angela Long As night falls over the Makgadigadi Pans, large trees stand starkly against the horizon, leafless branches reach for the light. As the sun sinks lower, the sky drains of all color until just red remains. On the opposite side of the sky, Earth’s shadow is rising, bringing…

~ How Deep is Your Love ~ Can it Handle Storms Clouds? ~ ????? ~ Let the Wicked be Wicked ~ Only the Righteous will Behold His Face ~ ????? (Psalm 11:1-7) . . .In Jehovah I have taken refuge. How dare YOU men say to my soul: “Flee as a bird to YOUR mountain!” 2 For, look! the wicked ones themselves bend the bow, They do make ready their arrow upon the bowstring, To shoot in the gloom at the ones upright in heart. 3 When the foundations themselves are torn down, What must anyone righteous do? 4 Jehovah is in his holy temple.
