YORKVILLE — Even after almost seven decades together, the love between Evelyn and Earl Goebel was still evident to their fellow churchgoers. “Whenever we said a prayer, they would always hold hands. Even after 68 years of marriage,” said Richard Perkins, an assistant fire chief for the Town of Paris and elder at Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses, 14509 Braun Rd. “Some people don’t do that. But they always held hands during the prayers. It was kind of touching.” Earl Goebel died over the holiday weekend following an Aug. 30 car crash that also claimed the life of Evelyn, authorities said in a press release Tuesday morning. The Goebels, of Union Grove,…

Great Crowd 1 2

Although we sometimes call ourselves the great crowd, and indeed we are a great crowd/nation, the term actually refers to the part of Jesus's other sheep which will survive the great tribulation at the end of this wicked system of things. citation here When John saw the “great crowd” rendering sacred service in Jehovah’s temple, in which part of the temple were they doing this?—Revelation 7:9-15.“It is reasonable to say that the great crowd worships Jehovah in one of the earthly courtyards of his great spiritual temple, specifically the one that corresponds with the outer courtyard of Solomon’s temple...... But as the heavenly elder said to John, the great crowd really…

The story of what happens when one boy's walk of faith crosses paths with one man's search for meaning-the resulting transformational journey touches the lives of everyone around them. Tyler Doherty is an extraordinary eight-year-old boy. Surrounded by a loving family and community, and armed with the courage of his faith, he faces his daily battle against cancer with bravery and grace. To Tyler, God is a friend, a teacher and the ultimate pen pal-Tyler's prayers take the form of letters, which he composes and mails on a daily basis. The letters find their way into the hands of Brady McDaniels, a beleaguered postman standing at a crossroads in his life. At first, he is co…

"All the ends of the earth will remembeer and turn to Jehovah." Never forget Jehovah!
by Bible Speaks- 0 replies

New World Translation (Ps 22:27) 27 "All the ends of the earth will remembeer and turn to Jehovah." Never forget Jehovah! “Comfort My People” Says Isaiah: “Who has measured the waters in the mere hollow of his hand, and taken the proportions of the heavens themselves with a mere span and included in a measure the dust of the earth, or weighed with an indicator the mountains, and the hills in the scales? ... The nations are as a drop from a bucket; and as the film of dust on the scales they have been accounted. Remember we are just dust! "All the families of the nations will bow down before you." https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/f0/85…

You must be holy.—Lev. 11:45. http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2016/9/6 Today, many of our brothers and sisters have shown determination in enduring persecution. For example, in one country some Witnesses have endured almost 20 years of imprisonment because of maintaining their neutrality. They were denied visits even from family members, and some prisoners were beaten and subjected to various forms of torture. Our brothers elsewhere endure tribulations that arise suddenly. Should that happen to you, do not give in to fear. Think of Joseph. He was sold into slavery, but Jehovah “rescued him out of all his tribulations.” (Acts 7:9, 10) Jehovah can do the same …

Jehovah knows how to rescue people of godly devotion out of trial.—2 Pet. 2:9. http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2016/9/5 In the book of Leviticus, holiness is referred to more often than in any other book of the Bible. Since this quality is a requirement for all genuine worshippers of Jehovah, understanding and appreciating Leviticus will help us to prove ourselves holy. The book of Leviticus, written by the prophet Moses, is part of “all Scripture” that is beneficial for teaching. (2 Tim. 3:16) Jehovah’s name appears an average of ten times in each chapter of the book. Getting the sense of Leviticus will strengthen us to avoid doing anything that would bring…

As of July 20 this year, and ordinary Russian citizens and foreigners residing in Russia, faced with huge fines for publicly display their beliefs, even if they allow it at home. This reflected a new level of repression of freedom of expression and civil society in post-Soviet Russia. According to the observations of the Centre for Humanitarian Technologies government restrictions on free religion in Russia in recent years, constantly being tightened, bringing the country to the top of the bar in a number of violators of religious freedom. Today, restrictions have been placed on the fact that religious people can not speak, even within their own home, so that Russia …

This is the blood of the covenant that Jehovah has made with you.—Ex. 24:8. http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2016/9/4 By means of the Law covenant, the ancient nation of Israel was set apart as God’s chosen nation. Jehovah now became ‘their Judge, their Lawgiver, and their King.’ (Isa. 33:22) The history of Israel provides a record of what happens when God’s righteous standards are either observed or ignored. Since the Law forbade intermarrying with pagans and participation in false worship, it was designed to prevent Abraham’s line of descent from being contaminated. (Ex. 20:4-6; 34:12-16) Through that covenant, Israel had a unique opportunity and privilege …

Creationists believe the 6 days were 24 hour days. As I showed earlier - we believe these days were periods of time...because all 6 creative days are referred to as "a day" in the Bible. This is a major difference. For people who are so nit-picky on small details of the ancient history of Russell - you are pretty neglectful when it comes to attention to these kind of details.

Now a group of scientists in the UK have claimed to have discovered the right way to manufacture synthetic blood and have even succeeded in doing so. The National Health Services of UK has announced its decision to start experimenting on synthetic blood in 2017 on a group pf 20 people. The blood substitutes are not meant to replace blood, the scientists said. Instead, synthetic blood is only meant to carry out the functions of actual blood wherever it fails. As such, synthetic blood transports oxygen.

Jehovah’s Witnesses open new kingdom hall in Flowery Branch
by Guest Nicole- 0 replies
- 2.1k views
A large plot of land on J M Turk Road in Flowery Branch was once covered by a forest, but has been cleared away in the last year to make room for a new Jehovah’s Witnesses’ Kingdom Hall. The hall opened in May after eight months of construction, said one of the congregation elders Robert Rankin. “We used all-volunteer labor,” he said. “No one was paid to do this.” The term “kingdom hall” was adopted by witnesses to describe their place of worship instead of the word church. They say biblically, the word “church” describes a group of worshippers, and not the place they congregate. Kingdom halls are thus places for witnesses to meet and learn about the k…
