29 The righteous will possess the earth,
And they will live forever on it.

‛Nie postępujcie już tak, jak postępują narody’ (Efez. 4:17).

Jeśli podejmujemy właściwe decyzje, możemy już teraz wieść satysfakcjonujące życie, a w przyszłości ‛odziedziczyć ziemię’, czyli żyć wiecznie. Czeka nas wiele cudownych błogosławieństw, których nawet nie sposób sobie wyobrazić (Mat. 5:5; 19:29; 25:34). To prawda, że Bóg nie da nam tego automatycznie — czegoś od nas wymaga (1 Jana 5:3, 4). Ale warto zdobywać się na wysiłki, by wiernie Mu służyć. Jakiż to wielki zaszczyt otrzymać od Boga tak wiele! Mamy dokładną wiedzę z Biblii i właściwe zrozumienie prawdy o Nim oraz Jego zamierzeniu. Możemy nazywać się od Jego imienia i być Jego Świadkami. Bóg obiecuje, że będzie po naszej stronie (Ps. 118:7). Oby każdy z nas — młody czy stary — doceniał to, pokazując swoim życiem, że gorąco pragnie oddawać Jehowie „chwałę na wieki” (Rzym. 11:33-36; Ps. 33:12). w14 15.12 4:19-21

29 The righteous will possess the earth,
And they will live forever on it.

Ne march[ez] plus comme marchent aussi ceux des nations (Éph. 4:17).

Si nous prenons les bonnes décisions, nous pouvons mener dès à présent une vie satisfaisante et espérer « hérite[r] de la terre », obtenir la vie éternelle. Les merveilleux bienfaits qui nous attendent sont si nombreux qu’il est difficile de tous les imaginer (Mat. 5:5 ; 19:29 ; 25:34). Évidemment, les dons de Dieu ne sont pas automatiques. Il attend quelque chose de notre part (1 Jean 5:3, 4). Mais le servir fidèlement dès maintenant en vaut vraiment la peine ! Quel honneur d’avoir tant reçu de Dieu ! Nous possédons la connaissance exacte de sa Parole et une claire compréhension de la vérité sur sa personne et sur ses desseins. Nous portons son nom et sommes ses Témoins. Et il nous promet qu’il est avec nous (Ps. 118:7). Que chacun de nous, jeune ou moins jeune, montre qu’il attache du prix à son héritage spirituel. Oui, vivons d’une manière qui témoigne d’un vif désir de rendre à Jéhovah « la gloire pour toujours » (Rom. 11:33-36 ; Ps. 33:12). w14 15/12 4:19-21.

29 The righteous will possess the earth,
And they will live forever on it.

Não mais andeis assim como . . . as nações andam. — Efé. 4:17.

Se tomarmos as decisões corretas, poderemos ter uma vida satisfatória agora e a esperança de ‘herdar a Terra’, onde teremos vida eterna. Há tantas bênçãos maravilhosas em reserva para nós que nem podemos imaginar. (Mat. 5:5; 19:29; 25:34) É claro que não receberemos essas bênçãos sem esforço. Deus espera algo de nós. (1 João 5:3, 4) Mas com certeza vale a pena servi-lo fielmente agora! É uma grande honra receber tanto de Deus. Temos conhecimento exato de sua Palavra e entendemos a verdade sobre ele e seus propósitos. Temos o privilégio de levar seu nome e ser suas Testemunhas. Deus garante que está do nosso lado. (Sal. 118:7) Que todos nós, jovens ou mais velhos, deixemos claro por nossa maneira de viver que valorizamos nossa herança e desejamos muito dar a Jeová ‘glória para sempre’. — Rom. 11:33-36; Sal. 33:12. w14 15/12 4:19-21

29 The righteous will possess the earth,
And they will live forever on it.

You should no longer go on walking just as the nations [do].—Eph. 4:17.

If we make the right decisions, we can have a satisfying life now and put ourselves in line to “inherit the earth”—to have everlasting life. There are so many wonderful blessings in store for us that we cannot even imagine them all. (Matt. 5:5; 19:29; 25:34) Granted, God does not give us things automatically. He requires something of us. (1 John 5:3, 4) But to serve him faithfully now is definitely worth it! What a great privilege it is to have received so much from God! We have accurate knowledge of his Word and a clear understanding of the truth about him and his purposes. We enjoy the privilege of bearing his name and being his Witnesses. God promises us that he is on our side. (Ps. 118:7) May all of us, whether young or old, show our appreciation by living our life in a way that manifests a keen desire to give Jehovah “the glory forever.”—Rom. 11:33-36; Ps. 33:12. w14 12/15 4:19-21

Moisés . . . negou-se a ser chamado filho da filha de Faraó, escolhendo antes ser maltratado com o povo de Deus do que ter o usufruto temporário do pecado. — Heb. 11:24, 25.

Moisés recebeu a melhor educação secular disponível em seus dias, mas será que ele a usou para ter uma carreira no Egito, ter destaque ou adquirir bens materiais? Não. Fica claro que Moisés usou sua educação espiritual em harmonia com o cumprimento do propósito de Jeová. Toda a sua atenção se voltava para Jeová e Seu povo. Aos 40 anos, Moisés achou que estava preparado para ajudar a libertar o povo de Deus da escravidão no Egito. (Atos 7:23-25) No entanto, antes que Jeová pudesse lhe dar essa designação, Moisés precisava de algo mais. Ele precisava cultivar qualidades como humildade, paciência, brandura e autodomínio. (Pro. 15:33) Moisés precisava de um treinamento que o preparasse para suportar os desafios e as dificuldades que viriam. w14 15/10 4:11-13

Mojżesz (...) nie chciał być nazywany synem córki faraona, lecz wybrał poniewieranie z ludem Bożym, a nie zaznawanie tymczasowej uciechy z grzechu (Hebr. 11:24, 25).

Mojżesz odebrał najlepsze świeckie wykształcenie, jakie było wówczas dostępne. Ale czy spożytkował je, żeby robić karierę w Egipcie, zabiegać o sławę lub dobra materialne? Nie. Wyraźnie widać, że Mojżesz wykorzystał swe duchowe wykształcenie, by popierać zamierzenie Jehowy. Żywo interesował się Jehową i Jego ludem. Gdy miał 40 lat, wydawało mu się, że jest gotowy pomóc w uwolnieniu Izraelitów z niewoli egipskiej (Dzieje 7:23-25). Jednak zanim Jehowa mógł powierzyć mu to zadanie, Mojżesz potrzebował czegoś jeszcze. Musiał rozwinąć takie przymioty, jak pokora, cierpliwość, łagodność czy panowanie nad sobą (Prz. 15:33). Potrzebował również szkolenia, które przygotowałoby go na przyszłe próby i trudności. w14 15.10 4:11-13

Moïse [...] a refusé d’être appelé fils de la fille de Pharaon, choisissant d’être maltraité avec le peuple de Dieu plutôt que d’avoir la jouissance temporaire du péché (Héb. 11:24, 25).

Moïse a reçu la meilleure instruction profane de son époque ; mais s’en est-il servi pour favoriser sa carrière en Égypte, devenir célèbre ou amasser des biens ? Non. Manifestement, il s’est servi de son instruction spirituelle pour favoriser le dessein de Jéhovah. Il s’intéressait vivement à Jéhovah et à Son peuple. À 40 ans, il s’est cru prêt à participer à la libération du peuple de Dieu, alors esclave en Égypte (Actes 7:23-25). Pourtant, quelque chose lui manquait pour que Jéhovah puisse lui confier cette mission. Il lui fallait cultiver des qualités comme l’humilité, la patience, la douceur et la maîtrise de soi (Prov. 15:33). Il avait besoin d’une formation qui le préparerait à endurer les épreuves qui l’attendaient. w14 15/10 4:11-13.

Моисей... отказался называться сыном дочери фараона и избрал участь народа Бога — терпеть жестокое обращение, вместо того чтобы иметь временное наслаждение грехом (Евр. 11:24, 25).

Моисей получил лучшее светское образование, доступное в его время. Но стал ли он с помощью него стремиться к карьере, славе и богатству в Египте? Нет. Несомненно, Моисей использовал полученное им духовное обучение, чтобы содействовать осуществлению замысла Иеговы. Он проявлял живой интерес к Иегове и его народу. Когда Моисею было 40 лет, он думал, что уже готов участвовать в освобождении Божьего народа от египетского гнета (Деян. 7:23—25). Однако, прежде чем Иегова поручил бы Моисею это задание, тому нужно было развить такие качества, как смирение, терпение, кротость и самообладание (Прит. 15:33). Моисею требовалось обучение, которое подготовило бы его к будущим испытаниям и трудностям. w14 15/10 4:11—13

Moses weigerte sich, der Sohn der Tochter Pharaos genannt zu werden, indem er es sich erwählte, eher mit dem Volk Gottes schlecht behandelt zu werden, als den zeitweiligen Genuss der Sünde zu haben (Heb. 11:24, 25)

Moses genoss die bestmögliche weltliche Ausbildung seiner Tage. Nutzte er sie aber, um in Ägypten aufzusteigen, sich einen Namen zu machen oder reich zu werden? Nein. Moses nutzte seine geistige Schulung, um den Vorsatz Jehovas zu unterstützen. Er hatte großes Interesse an Jehova und an dessen Volk. Mit 40 dachte er, er sei bereit, Gottes Volk aus der Knechtschaft Ägyptens zu befreien (Apg. 7:23-25). Doch bevor er dazu von Jehova beauftragt werden konnte, war noch einiges nötig. Moses musste beispielsweise seine Demut, Geduld, Milde und Selbstbeherrschung verbessern (Spr. 15:33). Er musste auf die schwierige Zeit, die vor ihm lag, vorbereitet werden. w14 15. 10. 4:11-13

Moses . . . refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, choosing to be mistreated with the people of God rather than to have the temporary enjoyment of sin.—Heb. 11:24, 25.

Moses was given the best secular education that was available in his day, but did he use it to advance his career in Egypt, make a name for himself, or acquire material possessions? No. Clearly, Moses used his spiritual education to advance Jehovah’s purpose. He was keenly interested in Jehovah and His people. At 40 years of age, Moses thought that he was ready to help liberate God’s people from Egyptian bondage. (Acts 7:23-25) However, before Jehovah could give him that assignment, Moses needed something more. He needed to cultivate such qualities as humility, patience, mildness, and self-control. (Prov. 15:33) Moses needed training that would prepare him to endure the trials and hardships that lay ahead. w14 10/15 4:11-13

A BEGGAR BECAME A CONGREGATION ELDER....

WHAT  a  big  blessing  from  our  God  Jehovah ❤

But,  read  the  story !

One Sunday morning, two brothers were preaching on the streets, could not talk to anyone, the brothers decided to talk to a beggar who sat on the bench in the square, who ate trash heaps that were there.
The brothers began to talk to him about the hope of a new world where there would be no more misery, there would be no more hunger, no violence, etc. The beggar was very much interested in the message and he accepted a study of the Bible with the brochure "does God require of us? And the brothers made arrangements to continue studying in the same place. When the day came, that beggar I was anxious to see the brothers were falling behind a bit, but came and went with the study. This beggar continued to study for two months ... one Saturday morning, the brothers were doing the preaching from house to house in that same territory when suddenly they saw the beggar also talking with people about the Bible, the brothers went to where the beggar to say that could not be doing this, on the doors, because it was necessary to have a good appearance and fill certain requirements.
Then the brothers took him to his home, where he bathed, shaved, cut his hair, nails, teeth brushed, and told them got him right clothes ... This beggar began to attend all meetings, without missing one, he began to participate in the theocratic ministry school; shortly thereafter he made one of his two dreams: he began to preach the good news from house to house. By that time this beggar was an example for all in the congregation and everyone who knew him knew of his history. After studying for 8 months was baptized at an international meeting held at Morumbi stadium in Sao Paulo Brazil.
The brother who had this experience in speech concluded: know what the result of that experience That beggar who became a brother? 'ME !!! and today I am having the privilege of being here telling my own story, for all the brothers.
Currently, in addition to serving Jehovah, I have my family, I have my house, I have a son and I serve as an elder in my congregation (... kept the audience not to applaud ...) so brothers have well in mind that in this world we all preach to all kind of people!; We demonstrate Christlike humility and willingness to give help to those in need, knowing that before God we are all beggars....

 Accept Change With Faith and Confidence (Heb. 13:17)

17 Be obedient to those who are taking the lead among you and be submissive, for they are keeping watch over you as those who will render an account, so that they may do this with joy and not with sighing, for this would be damaging to you.

Gott ist nicht ungerecht, dass er eure Arbeit vergessen würde (Heb. 6:10)

Jehova gedenkt der Arbeit aller, die ihm aus Liebe treu dienen, ganz gleich, ob sie viel oder wenig für ihn tun können. Im ersten Jahrhundert stieß Jesus ein Werk an, das globale Ausmaße erlangen sollte (Luk. 3:21-23; 4:14, 15, 43). Seine Apostel übernahmen die Führung in der Ausdehnung der Predigttätigkeit (Apg. 5:42; 6:7). Einige Christen, wie zum Beispiel Philippus, waren Evangeliumsverkündiger und Missionare in Palästina (Apg. 8:5, 40; 21:8). Paulus und andere reisten über weitere Strecken (Apg. 13:2-4; 14:26; 2. Kor. 1:19). Manche, zum Beispiel Silvanus (Silas), Markus und Lukas, waren auch Abschreiber oder Schreiber (1. Pet. 5:12). Schwestern arbeiteten mit diesen treuen Brüdern zusammen (Apg. 18:26; Röm. 16:1, 2). Die spannenden Erfahrungen all dieser Männer und Frauen machen die Christlichen Griechischen Schriften zu spannendem Lesestoff und lassen erkennen, dass Jehova seiner Diener zum Guten gedachte. w14 15. 9. 5:1-3

Dieu n’est pas injuste pour oublier votre œuvre (Héb. 6:10).

Jéhovah se souvient du labeur d’amour de tous ceux qui le servent fidèlement, que leur situation leur permette de faire beaucoup ou peu. Au Ier siècle, Jésus a commencé une œuvre de prédication qui devait atteindre une ampleur mondiale (Luc 3:21-23 ; 4:14, 15, 43). Ses apôtres ont été les moteurs de l’expansion de cette œuvre (Actes 5:42 ; 6:7). Des chrétiens, comme Philippe, ont été évangélisateurs et missionnaires en Palestine (Actes 8:5, 40 ; 21:8). Paul et d’autres se sont rendus plus loin (Actes 13:2-4 ; 14:26 ; 2 Cor. 1:19). Certains, par exemple Silvain (Silas), Marc et Luc, ont aussi été secrétaires ou rédacteurs bibliques (1 Pierre 5:12). Des chrétiennes collaboraient avec ces frères fidèles (Actes 18:26 ; Rom. 16:1, 2). Leurs aventures palpitantes font des Écritures grecques chrétiennes un récit captivant, et montrent que Jéhovah se souvient de ses serviteurs, qu’il est attentif à leurs besoins. w14 15/9 5:1-3

Не неправеден Бог, чтобы забыть ваш труд (Евр. 6:10).

Иегова помнит труд любви тех, кто верно служит ему, сколько бы их обстоятельства ни позволяли им делать. Иисус положил начало делу проповеди, которое должно было проводиться по всей земле (Луки 3:21—23; 4:14, 15, 43). Потом этой деятельностью стали руководить апостолы, и она продолжала расширяться (Деян. 5:42; 6:7). Одни христиане, например Филипп, служили проповедниками и миссионерами в Палестине (Деян. 8:5, 40; 21:8). Другие же, такие как Павел, возвещали благую весть на отдаленных территориях (Деян. 13:2—4; 14:26; 2 Кор. 1:19). Некоторые братья, например Силуан (Сила), Марк и Лука, служили переписчиками или участвовали в написании библейских книг (1 Пет. 5:12). С верными братьями плечом к плечу трудились и христианские сестры (Деян. 18:26; Рим. 16:1, 2). Захватывает дух, когда читаешь в Христианских Греческих Писаниях о том, что пережили эти братья и сестры. Происходившее с ними подтверждает, что Иегова помнит своих верных служителей и благословляет их. w14 15/9 5:1—3

Hello....  I  had  by  my  start  some  problems  too  ;o)   I  asked  for  some  things,  but  then  i  tried  alone  this  and  that...  and  WOW,  suddenly  step  by  step  all  was  working !  hahaha  -   You  will  work  it  too,  YES !

Deus não é injusto, para se esquecer de vossa obra. — Heb. 6:10.

Jeová se lembra do trabalho amoroso feito por todos os que servem fielmente a ele de acordo com suas circunstâncias na vida, quer façam muito, quer pouco. No primeiro século Jesus deu início a uma obra que alcançaria proporções globais. (Luc. 3:21-23; 4:14, 15, 43) Seus apóstolos assumiram a dianteira na expansão dessa obra de pregação. (Atos 5:42; 6:7) Alguns cristãos, como Filipe, serviram como evangelizadores e missionários na Palestina. (Atos 8:5, 40; 21:8) Paulo e outros viajaram a lugares bem distantes. (Atos 13:2-4; 14:26; 2 Cor. 1:19) Alguns — por exemplo, Silvano (Silas), Marcos e Lucas — também serviram como copistas ou escritores. (1 Ped. 5:12) Irmãs cristãs serviram junto com esses irmãos fiéis. (Atos 18:26; Rom. 16:1, 2) Suas empolgantes experiências tornam emocionante a leitura das Escrituras Gregas Cristãs e mostram que Jeová se lembra de modo favorável de seus servos. w14 15/9 5:1-3

A  crazy  sick  world  will  never  get  peace...  ;-(   We  need  our  God  for  healing !

Bóg nie jest nieprawy, żeby miał zapomnieć o waszej pracy (Hebr. 6:10).

Jehowa pamięta pełen miłości trud tych, którzy Mu wiernie służą bez względu na to, czy sytuacja życiowa pozwala im robić dużo czy mało. W I wieku Jezus rozpoczął dzieło, które swym zasięgiem miało objąć całą ziemię (Łuk. 3:21-23; 4:14, 15, 43). Później w nadawaniu rozmachu tej działalności kaznodziejskiej przewodzili apostołowie (Dzieje 5:42; 6:7). Pewni chrześcijanie, tacy jak Filip, usługiwali jako ewangelizatorzy i misjonarze w Palestynie (Dzieje 8:5, 40; 21:8). Paweł i inni podróżowali na odległe tereny (Dzieje 13:2-4; 14:26; 2 Kor. 1:19). Niektórzy — na przykład Marek i Łukasz — napisali księgi biblijne, a inni, jak choćby Sylwan (Sylas), usługiwali jako sekretarze (1 Piotra 5:12). U boku tych wiernych braci wysilały się również chrześcijanki (Dzieje 18:26; Rzym. 16:1, 2). Ich zachwycające przeżycia sprawiają, że Chrześcijańskie Pisma Greckie stają się fascynującą lekturą, oraz dowodzą, że Jehowa życzliwie pamięta o swych sługach. w14 15.9 5:1-3

God is not unrighteous so as to forget your work.—Heb. 6:10.

Jehovah remembers the loving labors of all who faithfully serve him, whether their circumstances in life permit them to do much or little. In the first century, Jesus launched a work that was to reach global proportions. (Luke 3:21-23; 4:14, 15, 43) His apostles took the lead in the expansion of this preaching work. (Acts 5:42; 6:7) Some Christians, such as Philip, served as evangelizers and missionaries in Palestine. (Acts 8:5, 40; 21:8) Paul and others traveled farther afield. (Acts 13:2-4; 14:26; 2 Cor. 1:19) Some—for example, Silvanus (Silas), Mark, and Luke—also served as copyists or writers. (1 Pet. 5:12) Christian sisters worked along with these faithful brothers. (Acts 18:26; Rom. 16:1, 2) Their exciting experiences help to make the Christian Greek Scriptures a thrill to read and demonstrate that Jehovah remembers his servants favorably. w14 9/15 5:1-3

Authorities Threaten to Liquidate Witnesses’ National Headquarters in Russia

ST. PETERSBURG, Russia—In an unprecedented move, Russian authorities have threatened to close the Administrative Center of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Russia.

The Prosecutor General’s Office of the Russian Federation issued a formal warning letter dated March 2, 2016, stating that “the religious association shall be subject to liquidation” if the administrative center fails to eliminate within two months the “committed violations” framed by the government as “extremist.” Yaroslav Sivulskiy, a spokesman for Jehovah’s Witnesses in Russia, states: “This closing of our national entity would include a confiscation of any properties we own and ultimately place a ban on the religious activities of Jehovah’s Witnesses throughout Russia.”

Administrative Center of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Russia.

Ironically, the move comes during the 25th anniversary of the first legal registration of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Russia: the Administrative Center was registered on March 27, 1991, and was reregistered on April 29, 1999. The threat to close the Witnesses’ national headquarters in Russia, located in the village of Solnechnoye about 40 kilometers (25 miles) northwest of St. Petersburg, is the latest instance of the government’s aggression against the Witnesses. Within the past year, Russian authorities blocked imports of the Witnesses’ religious literature, as well as Russian-language Bibles, and made Russia the only nation in the world to ban the Witnesses’ official website, jw.org. “The anti-extremism laws are being misapplied toward the worship of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Russia,” comments Mr. Sivulskiy. “Jehovah’s Witnesses are contesting these decisions. We want to freely carry out our worship and our Bible education work peacefully, as we have been doing for 125 years in Russia.”

However, Russian authorities have been increasingly hostile to Jehovah’s Witnesses largely due to what has been described as the government’s symbiotic relationship with the Russian Orthodox Church. International media outlets have reported that this “close alliance between the government and the Russian Orthodox Church,” as The New York Times characterized it, appears to fuel aggressive acts and legislation aimed at suppressing the Witnesses’ activities as well as those of other religious minorities in Russia. The Associated Press reported that the government’s “moves against the Jehovah’s Witnesses in Russia [have] also alarmed religious-freedoms activists.” A report from Reuters stated that such acts are being carried out “against Jehovah’s Witnesses and scores of others caught up in the widening net of criminal prosecutions brought under Russia’s anti-extremism law.” In December 2015, The Independent reported that Russia’s legislation was to help “prevent terrorist attacks and ultranationalist violence.” Yet, it has also been used “to prosecute members of such peaceful faiths” as Jehovah’s Witnesses, as described by The Huffington Post on March 20, 2016. Although the Witnesses are seeking legal redress in both domestic courts and the European Court of Human Rights, The Moscow Times of March 25, 2016, reported that Russia passed a new law “giving Russian courts the right to overrule international courts’ decisions.”

Visitors in the lobby of the Administrative Center.

The Witnesses use the Administrative Center of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Russia to organize and support free Bible education programs for Russian citizens. Experienced ministers at the administrative center also assist and communicate with Witness volunteers in Russia working to provide relief aid for victims of disasters. There are more than 175,000 Witnesses in Russia, a country with a population of over 146,000,000.

David A. Semonian, international spokesman for the Witnesses at their world headquarters in New York, states: “It is greatly disappointing to us that the government would even threaten to shut down our branch office in Russia. Jehovah’s Witnesses and many others around the world are taking a keen interest in how this matter develops.”
