 HOW  SAD....  this  lovely  old  JW  married  couple  died  after  a  car  accident  ;-(

Earl  and  Evelin,  both  87 years  and  70  years  married ❤   They  were  in  the  KD  Hall  always  seen  so  sweet  hand  in  hand  ;o)   They  were  on  the  way  for  enjoying  ice cream  together,  when  a  terrible  moment  separated  them  into  2 diff.  hospitals  - They  died  to  the  same  time !   I  read,  soon  again  they  can  hold  their  hands...

So  I  guess,  they  were  our  anointed  Brothers ?   But  I  am  not  sure...

Keep doing this in remembrance of me.—1 Cor. 11:24.

Night has fallen, but a full moon bathes Jerusalem in soft light. It is the evening of Nisan 14, 33 C.E. Jesus and his apostles have celebrated the Passover, commemorating Israel’s deliverance from Egyptian bondage 15 centuries earlier. With 11 loyal apostles, Jesus now institutes a special meal—one that will memorialize the death he will experience before this day ends. (Matt. 26:1, 2) Jesus says a blessing and passes unleavened bread to the apostles, saying: “Take, eat.” He takes a cup of wine, again offers thanks, and says: “Drink out of it, all of you.” (Matt. 26:26, 27) Jesus will not pass other food items to them, but he will have much more to tell his faithful followers on this momentous night. So it was that Jesus instituted the Memorial of his death, also called “the Lord’s Evening Meal.”—1 Cor. 11:20. w15 1/15 2:1-3

He opened up their minds fully to grasp the meaning of the Scriptures.—Luke 24:45.

It was still the day of Jesus’ resurrection. Two of the disciples were walking to a village about seven miles (11.2 km) from Jerusalem. Not knowing that Jesus had been resurrected, they were heavyhearted because of recent events. Suddenly, Jesus appeared and started walking with them. He was able to comfort these disciples. How? “Starting with Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted to them things pertaining to himself in all the Scriptures.” (Luke 24:13-15, 27) At that, their hearts started to burn within them as he clearly explained the Scriptures to them. (Luke 24:32) That same evening, these two disciples returned to Jerusalem. Finding the apostles, they related their experience to them. As they were speaking, Jesus appeared to all of them. However, his apostles were terrified. Doubts came up in their hearts. How did Jesus strengthen them? By doing what our text for today relates. w14 12/15 2:1, 2

You must be holy.—Lev. 11:45.

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 for you. Will you continue to trust in Jehovah, knowing that he can deliver you from this wicked system of things and allow you to enjoy everlasting life under the rule of his Kingdom? You have every reason to do so and to face up to persecution courageously.—1 Pet. 5:8, 9. w14 9/15 2:9, 10

Jehovah knows how to rescue people of godly devotion out of trial.—2 Pet. 2:9.

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 reproach on the divine name. (Lev. 22:32) The book’s frequent use of the words “I am Jehovah” should remind us to obey God. As recorded in Leviticus chapter 8, Jehovah selected Aaron to serve as Israel’s high priest, and his sons were to serve as priests in behalf of the nation. Thus, Aaron represents Jesus Christ and Aaron’s sons represent Jesus’ anointed followers. w14 11/15 2:1-3

This is the blood of the covenant that Jehovah has made with you.—Ex. 24:8.

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 to become “a kingdom of priests,” provided they met the stipulation to obey Jehovah’s laws. (Ex. 19:5, 6) Israel, however, failed to meet this requirement. Instead of esteeming the arrival of the Messiah, the primary part of Abraham’s offspring, the nation rejected him. Consequently, God rejected that nation. w14 10/15 2:3-5

I have finally found the evasive song 151! Download this set of Spanish songs and you'll hear it there. (It will probably sound the same in English when we get it.) The approximate translation of the title in English is The Revelation of God’s Children. Sorry to say I don't have any lyrics.

WOW.....  thank  you  SO  much  Brother  Murdock  ;o)  You  are  great !  Very  rare,  such  of  searching  Brothers  for  us  JW !!   Thanks  again ❤

I will change the language of the peoples to a pure language, so that all of them may call on the name of Jehovah, to serve him shoulder to shoulder.—Zeph. 3:9.

Jehovah undeniably blesses the preaching work of Christian women and supports them in times of trial. With his help, for example, godly women maintained their integrity under Nazi and Communist rule when many of them suffered and some even lost their lives because of their obedience to God. (Acts 5:29) Today as in the past, our sisters and all their fellow worshippers uphold God’s sovereignty. In effect, as in the case of the ancient Israelites, Jehovah grasps their right hand and says: “Do not be afraid. I will help you.” (Isa. 41:10-13) In the near future, godly men and women will transform the earth into a paradise and help millions of resurrected ones to learn about Jehovah’s purposes. Until then, whether male or female, let us cherish our privilege of serving him “shoulder to shoulder.” w14 8/15 1:21, 22
