Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.—Matt. 23:12.
It would be wrong to exalt individuals, even if they are anointed brothers of Christ. Speaking about Christian elders, the Bible encourages us to imitate the faith of those who take the lead, but it never commands us to elevate any human as our leader. (Heb. 13:7) True, the Scriptures speak of some as being “considered worthy of double honor.” However, such ones are worthy of honor, not because they are anointed, but because they “preside in a fine way” and “work hard in speaking and teaching.” (1 Tim. 5:17) Therefore, it would be embarrassing for those with a heavenly calling if others were to give them undue praise or attention. Worse still, if they received special treatment, anointed Christians might find it difficult to remain humble. (Rom. 12:3) None of us would want to cause one of Christ’s brothers to stumble!—Luke 17:2. w16.01 4:9

Por medio de él, ustedes fueron sellados con el espíritu santo prometido, que es una prenda por anticipado de nuestra herencia (Efes. 1:13, 14).
Jehová les da a los ungidos espíritu santo en prenda, como un adelanto de lo que les espera en el futuro. Gracias a ello, sienten la plena y total seguridad de que han sido elegidos para vivir en el cielo (2 Cor. 1:21, 22; 5:5). Ellos están seguros de que han sido invitados... pero solo recibirán su recompensa si son fieles hasta el final. Por esta razón, Pedro animó a sus hermanos a hacer todo lo posible por ser dignos de su llamado. Les dijo: “Si siguen haciendo estas cosas no fracasarán nunca. De hecho, así se les suministrará ricamente la entrada en el reino eterno de nuestro Señor y Salvador Jesucristo” (2 Ped. 1:10, 11). Todos los ungidos deben permanecer fieles a Jehová. Si no, de nada les servirá haber sido invitados (Heb. 3:1; Rev. 2:10). w16.01 3:6, 7

I see NO problem.... all is ok ! Maybe this website makes sometimes problems with any 'bla bla'.... I know that also from different things
Ignore it !! I was also little angry here by this and that... its of sure the technology !!!!
WOW... you have the FRANGIPANI plant at home ? Be happy, yes ! I know the many kind of sorts.... Yes, the red one is also a fav. ! But in my hand I ONLY had this from my photo. The blossoms were growing on many small, but also on few very big trees ! When we had our meals, we always met one of these trees and many blossoms were on the ground.... I always took a blossom bec. the smell caught me daily, hahaha. I miss it alot !! Maybe I buy a bigger Frangipani with blossoms, but with white - yellows ! I don't know how is the smell of the other colors ?
The other plant I also have in my flat, one Aloe Vera, the real one ! I got it from a sister in South Switzerland ! Its looking like No. 8 on your picture
Now I have another question, a sister told me about your original BLUE AFRIKAANS BYBEL......
Is it true, in Afrikaans Bibles is NOT the name Jehovah inside ?? The sister was also living in S. - Africa ! Sister Arauna wrote :
New living translation it says on the front of the bible. I hope it has Jehovah's name in it.
I came in the Truth in South Africa when most of the Bibles in the tribal languages had the name of Jehovah in it throughout the bibles. I used to use these African language translations to prove that the name had been taken out of the Afrikaans bible, because the company which translated the tribal languages also distributed the Afrikaans one. .. so sneaky. Later, they also took jehovah's name out of the other 11 national languages of south africa.
The name of Jehovah had been removed in the 1933 translation in the Afrikaans. The original translations of Du Toit and Pannevis in the 19th century had the name in the Afrikaans Translation.
Maybe you can tell me something to that ? SEE US LATER AGAIN HERE !
WISH YOU A NICE MONDAY, SO LONG

I agree with your opinion and I will find out by Brother Colin too !
Thats all.... I believe you, sister Arauna. - Agape !

You were sealed by means of him with the promised holy spirit, which is a token in advance of our inheritance.—Eph. 1:13, 14.
This special operation of holy spirit becomes like a down payment, a guarantee (or, a pledge) of what is to come. An anointed Christian gains an inner conviction because of this token. (2 Cor. 1:21, 22; 5:5) That person is sure of his invitation. But whether he finally receives his reward in heaven or not depends on his proving faithful to his calling. Peter explained it this way: “Therefore, brothers, be all the more diligent to make your calling and choosing sure for yourselves, for if you keep on doing these things, you will by no means ever fail. In fact, in this way you will be richly granted entrance into the everlasting Kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” (2 Pet. 1:10, 11) Each anointed Christian must, therefore, struggle to remain faithful. If he does not, his heavenly calling, or invitation, will be of no value to him.—Heb. 3:1; Rev. 2:10. w16.01 3:6, 7

The best weapons.....
When God created the world, he rejoiced over all his works. Each being had its destiny, and all his creatures lived happily in their peculiar character. Only the lamb lay sad before the throne of God and could not share the joy of the other creatures. God saw the suffering of the Lamb and asked, "What is the matter with you that you are so sad and oppressed?" "Oh, my God," answered the lamb, sighing, "how can I be merry and happy when I am weak and helpless.
Why am I so different among your creatures? Why did not you give me weapons for defense like all other animals? Top horns and sharp claws, powerful trunks and poisonous teeth, fast legs and wide wings have other animals. They all can save themselves by climbing and running, flying and diving, biting and stabbing, catching and robbing. But I am helpless in the great world and exposed to the will of my enemies. "
God listened to the complaints of the lamb, and gave him the right to say, "I'll leave you with the choice: do you want claws, nails, sharp teeth, an antler or a trunk, wings, or fins?" "Oh, no, my God, hurt such dangerous weapons, I want to ask you for better weapons, with which I can really overcome evil and the enemy!" -
"Your request is righteous, and I will give it to thee, and I will give thee the best weapons, which thou canst overcome and conquer."
And God gave the Lamb his BEST gifts, namely meekness, devotion and patience...❤
