Queen Esther reacted to Colin Browne in The Origins of Halloween — What Does the Bible Say About Them?
Hello sister, this was a joke during the early years of JW.ORG. Unlike these days, during those early days brothers and sisters could contribute anything to the librarian, which he will either publish or reject. I'm no longer sure whether the joke was made by a brother or sister or by the librarian himself.
In the English language the word "Hypothetical" is used whenever an imaginary situation is presented.
While this wicked world lasts, there will always be people who call down evil on us when we approach them with the good news. I hope that you will now understand that it was not a genuine situation. It's something which could have happened.

Queen Esther reacted to Queen Esther in Texto Diario, Viernes 3 de noviembre 2017
Si alguien quiere venir en pos de mí, repúdiese a sà mismo y tome su madero de tormento (Mat. 16:24).
Hay cristianos que no entienden bien cuál es la diferencia entre la dedicación y el bautismo. Por ejemplo, algunos jóvenes dicen que se han dedicado a Jehová, pero que todavÃa no están listos para bautizarse. Eso es imposible. Cuando una persona se dedica a Jehová, le promete que le servirá para siempre. Y cuando se bautiza, simplemente está haciendo pública esa promesa que ya le hizo a Jehová en privado. Joven, ¿ves lo importante que es entender bien lo que significa dedicarse a Jehová antes de bautizarse? En pocas palabras, cuando te dedicas a Jehová, es como si le dijeras: “Ahora te pertenezco a ti”. Le prometes que a partir de ese momento lo más importante será hacer lo que él quiere, más importante que cualquier otra cosa en tu vida. Seguro que siempre tratas de cumplir tu palabra, ¿verdad? ¡Con cuánta más razón debes cumplir cualquier promesa que le hagas a Jehová! (Mat. 5:33). w16.03 1:14, 15

Queen Esther reacted to Queen Esther in Texto Diario, Jueves 2 de noviembre 2017
Oh hijo de criada rebelde, ¿no sé yo bien que estás escogiendo al hijo de Jesé para tu propia vergüenza y para vergüenza de las partes naturales de tu madre? (1 Sam. 20:30).
Debemos ser leales a Jehová aunque uno de los encargados de la congregación nos trate injustamente. Saúl, aunque habÃa sido nombrado rey por Jehová, trató mal a su hijo. No entendÃa por qué era tan buen amigo de David, y en un arranque de ira lo humilló enfrente de muchas personas. Aun asÃ, Jonatán no le faltó el respeto. Pero tampoco dejó de ser leal a Jehová ni a David, que llegarÃa a ser el rey de Israel (1 Sam. 20:31-41). Claro está, los encargados de la congregación se esfuerzan por ser justos con todos. Pero como son imperfectos, en alguna ocasión podrÃan malinterpretar nuestras acciones (1 Sam. 1:13-17). No dejemos que nada nos impida ser leales a Jehová, ni siquiera si somos vÃctimas de un malentendido o se nos trata injustamente. w16.02 3:14, 15

If anyone wants to come after me, let him disown himself and pick up his torture stake.—Matt. 16:24.
Some might be confused about the difference between dedication and baptism. For example, some young people say that they have made a dedication to Jehovah but are not ready to get baptized. Does that make sense? Making a dedication means telling Jehovah that you will serve him forever. At baptism, a person shows others that he is dedicated. Therefore, baptism is a public expression of a private dedication that you have already made in prayer to Jehovah. Before you get baptized, you need to be sure that you understand what dedication means. Simply stated, when you dedicate your life to Jehovah, you give up ownership of yourself. You promise Jehovah that you will put the doing of his will ahead of everything else in your life. Any promise should be taken seriously, but how much more so a promise made to Jehovah God!—Matt. 5:33. w16.03 1:14, 15

Queen Esther got a reaction from Blanchie DeGrate in Daily text, Thursday, November 2. 2017
You son of a rebellious woman, do you think I do not know that you are choosing to side with the son of Jesse, to your own shame and to the shame of your mother?—1 Sam. 20:30.
Our loyalty to Jehovah may be challenged if someone in a responsible position misjudges us. Jonathan may have faced such a challenge. King Saul, the anointed of God, was aware of his sonÂ’s friendship with David, but he did not understand the reason for it. Saul humiliated Jonathan in an angry outburst. However, Jonathan did not retaliate. He did not waver in his loyalty to God or to David, who would in time become IsraelÂ’s king. (1 Sam. 20:31-41) In congregations of JehovahÂ’s people today, it is very unlikely that we would be treated unjustly. However, those taking the lead among us are imperfect men and could misinterpret our actions. (1 Sam. 1:13-17) If we are ever misjudged or misunderstood, let us remain loyal to Jehovah. w16.02 3:14, 15

I never heard anything of that house.... Curious, you found the picture by JW.ORG, and the little gloomy story . Do you know the literature where you saw that ?
Thank you my Brother @Colin Browne Â

Here's a picture I found at JW.ORG many years ago.
When a witness called on the house above, a woman upstairs began cursing him.
He then said, "Sorry ma,am. Can I please speak to George?"

Queen Esther got a reaction from The Librarian in When Did Joseph Die ?...
( I like that picture of JESUS... he is smiling by his hard work  looking very healthy and forceful ! )
When Did Joseph Die ?....
 We know that Joseph was alive when Jesus was 12 years old,...
At that age many Jewish youths began to learn their fatherÂ’s trade and became apprentices at 15,...
Joseph evidently lived long enough to teach Jesus to be a carpenter,...
Was Joseph still living when Jesus began his ministry at about 30 years of age ?...
It seems very doubtful,...
JesusÂ’ mother, brothers, and sisters are all mentioned as living at that time but not Joseph,...
Jesus was once even called “ the son of Mary,” not the son of Joseph. Mark 6:3
Mary is spoken of as acting and taking initiatives on her own, without consulting a husband,... John 2:1-5
That would have been unusual in Bible times unless she was a widow,...
Finally, as he was dying, Jesus entrusted the care of his mother to the apostle John.
There would have been no need to do so if Joseph were still living,...
Evidently, then, Joseph died when Jesus was still a relatively young man,...
As the eldest son, Jesus undoubtedly took over the carpentry business and cared for the family until his baptism.

Working together with him, we also urge you not to accept the undeserved kindness of God and miss its purpose.—2 Cor. 6:1.
Jehovah is the Supreme One, the Creator of all things, the One possessing infinite wisdom and power. Job came to understand that. After Jehovah questioned Job about His works of creation, Job replied: “I know that you are able to do all things and that nothing you have in mind to do is impossible for you.” (Job 42:2) Though Jehovah can accomplish whatever he sets out to do—without assistance—he has from the very beginning lovingly invited others to work along with him to achieve his purpose. God’s first creation was his only-begotten spirit Son. Jehovah allowed his Son to share in all further works of creation, both spirit and material. (John 1:1-3, 18) Thus, Jehovah honored his Son both by including him in the works of creation and by telling others about his Son’s important role.—Col. 1:15-17. w16.01 5:1, 2

How to be Saved from Hell: That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Romans 10:9Â For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. John 3:17Â For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16Â For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: Romans 8 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23 Â For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2.
