Queen Esther reacted to Queen Esther in Daily text, Friday, February, 9. 2018
I became a minister of this according to the free gift of God’s undeserved kindness.—Eph. 3:7.
If we met all of Jehovah’s requirements perfectly, his kindness toward us would be deserved. As it is, we fail to do so. Thus, wise King Solomon wrote: “There is no righteous man on earth who always does good and never sins.” (Eccl. 7:20) The apostle Paul likewise stated: “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” and “the wages sin pays is death.” (Rom. 3:23; 6:23a) That is what we deserve. Jehovah, however, expressed his love toward fallen mankind in an incomparable act of undeserved kindness. He sent his greatest gift of all, “his only-begotten Son,” to earth to die in our behalf. (John 3:16) So Paul wrote concerning Jesus that he is “now crowned with glory and honor for having suffered death, so that by God’s undeserved kindness he might taste death for everyone.” (Heb. 2:9) Yes, “the gift God gives is everlasting life by Christ Jesus our Lord.”—Rom. 6:23b. w16.07 3:3, 4

Llegué a ser ministro de estas conforme a la dádiva gratuita de la bondad inmerecida de Dios (Efes. 3:7).
Si hiciéramos a la perfección todo lo que Dios nos pide, merecerÃamos su bondad. Desde luego, este no es el caso. Por eso, el rey Salomón afirmó: “No hay en la tierra hombre justo que siga haciendo el bien y no peque” (Ecl. 7:20). De la misma manera, el apóstol Pablo dijo: “Todos han pecado y no alcanzan a la gloria de Dios”. Y más tarde añadió: “El salario que el pecado paga es muerte” (Rom. 3:23; 6:23a). Eso es lo que merecemos. Sin embargo, Jehová le demostró su amor a la humanidad pecadora mediante un acto sin igual de bondad inmerecida: envió a la Tierra a “su Hijo unigénito”, el mayor regalo de todos, para que muriera por nosotros (Juan 3:16). Por eso, Pablo escribió que Jesús habÃa sido “coronado de gloria y honra por haber sufrido la muerte, para que por la bondad inmerecida de Dios gustase la muerte por todo hombre” (Heb. 2:9). Asà es, “el don que Dios da es vida eterna por Cristo Jesús nuestro Señor” (Rom. 6:23b). w16.07 3:3, 4

Dejen de inquietarse respecto a su alma (Mat. 6:25).
Los que escuchaban a Jesús se preocupaban demasiado por cosas que no debÃan inquietarlos. Jesús tenÃa buenas razones para decirles que dejaran de hacerlo. La preocupación innecesaria, aunque sea legÃtima, divide la atención de la persona y la distrae de las cosas espirituales, que son más importantes. A Jesús le importaban tanto sus discÃpulos que en su Sermón del Monte les advirtió cuatro veces más que tuvieran cuidado con esta tendencia (Mat. 6:27, 28, 31, 34). ConocÃa muy bien las necesidades diarias de la gente. Y no solo eso, conocÃa las duras condiciones a las que sus discÃpulos se enfrentarÃan siglos después, en “los últimos dÃas”, que serÃan “crÃticos, difÃciles de manejar” (2 Tim. 3:1). Entre otras cosas, habrÃa desempleo, inflación, falta de comida y la pobreza extrema que aflige a tantas personas. Pero Jesús también sabÃa que la vida vale más que el alimento y el cuerpo que la ropa. w16.07 1:8, 9

Stop being anxious about your lives.—Matt. 6:25.
Jesus’ listeners were anxious about things they ought not be anxious about. Jesus said to stop that—and for good reason. Needless anxiety or worry, even about legitimate concerns, can divide a person’s mind and distract him, shutting out the more important spiritual matters of life. Jesus was so concerned for his disciples that he warned them about this dangerous tendency four more times in his Sermon on the Mount. (Matt. 6:27, 28, 31, 34) Jesus was well-aware of people’s day-to-day needs. More than that, he knew of the difficult conditions facing his disciples who centuries later would live during “the last days,” characterized by “critical times hard to deal with.” (2 Tim. 3:1) Such conditions include unemployment, inflation, food shortages, and abject poverty that many experience. Yet, Jesus also realized that ‘life means more than food and the body than clothing.’ w16.07 1:8, 9

Queen Esther reacted to Melinda Mills in Women Being Used To Do Roving Microphones ?
When I was little, my mother used to be literature servant. That was in the supposed day of small things. Another sister was the accounts servant. She used to step on he platform and read the accounts and step back down - head uncovered. They were men in the congregation but they did not have the relevant education to do these things. But we had to listen to them teach, and some of them had not much ability but they were willing to do their parts.
Seems like those were progressive days, then.

Queen Esther reacted to JW Insider in JW's mistaken claim...
Then you and I agree completely. I don't think anyone should make a habit of advocating that someone abuse copyright material. And I agree that many people abuse "fair use" guidelines, or don't understand them. It's fairly easy to comply, although it requires a bit more work than a lot of people want to put into their posts. It's easy to get lazy or in a hurry, and I've done this too. I've seen whole articles posted many times. A good rule of thumb is to keep quotes under 3 lines at a time from any article, and keep excerpts down to less than a paragraph or two from longer works. If anyone thinks I have advocated for abuse of the law, they are mistaken either about what I said, or about the law.
You are misrepresenting me again. I agree that JTR made an error. I almost pointed it out before you did, but had to go somewhere and didn't see any notifications from the forum pop up for a couple hours.
The rules should be kept MORE strictly if this were an academic site. This is NOT an academic site. But there are parts of the site that tend toward being academic in the sense that they are about religious doctrine and they discuss and quote from the academic or scholarly research of others. They are often discussions and critique of doctrine. Doctrine means teaching. Discussions about teachings and critique of teachings is essentially going to categorized as "academic." When you quote from sources to open up a discussion or refute another persons opinion about copyright law, you are teaching something about copyright law. The person presenting material need not be correct in all aspects, but that's the nature of a forum. It's a mix of teaching and questioning and learning and discussion and controversy and disagreement and social banter and parody and jokes and entertainment. But we should still be able to LEARN from anyone who offers a point of view.

Queen Esther got a reaction from Blanchie DeGrate in It's hard for me to say 'goodbye'....
It's so hard for me to say 'goodbye'...
to those folks that we hold dear...
how my heart too often, aches
just because they are not here...
They are living in my dreams...
When I wake, tears fill my eyes...
For the emptiness I feel
in my heart, I can't disguise.
They all passed this way but once
How they touched my heart & soul
in a very special way!
Their departure left a "hole."
None will ever take their place...
Oh, how my eyes long to see
all these dear ones who are gone...
For they meant the world to me!
How I long for their embrace -
just to hear their voice once more...
and to see their loving smiles -
These are things that I long for!
Are these hopes we entertain
nothing more than wishful thinking?
Or is there a firm foundation
that our hopes will be the real thing?
Yes, we all have a real hope
There's a time when we will see
earthly paradise restored
Then all the dead will be...
Restored to life again..
Never more to separate...
from their families and friends...
This God's promises do state.
Loving kindness will be shown..
by Jehovah through his Son...
Who lay down his perfect life
So that God's will would be done.
What a grand time that will be!
When death will be no more
All in 'Hades" are set free...
What a grand hope lies in store!
We won't have to say 'goodbye'
We'll cry tears of joy instead...
For our hearts will overflow
when we welcome back the dead!
Thank you JEHOVAH  ? .•*¨`*•..¸???¸.•*¨`*•. ?
