Queen Esther reacted to Queen Esther in CAN WE SPOT A LOST SHEEP ?......
CAN WE SPOT A LOST SHEEP ?......
When she comes on Sunday, she is usually quite late. Is she baptized or inactive is the question for debate. Few people try to know her and some wonder and stare. No one tries to dig down deep to see who's really there. In her purse is a funeral program that is ragged around the ears. It is yellow and quite wrinkled and has been soaked with many tears. She's looked at it quite often and knows the resurrection hope. But she still mourns her daughter, and sometimes she can't cope. Many people wonder but no one ever made the call. She's one of the lost sheep sitting there, right in YOUR Kingdom Hall. * Her uncle molested her when she was just a child. Her mother didn't believe her and said she was just wild. Jehovah God has blessed her and now she has the Truth. But she still lives with all the scars of a stolen youth. They say she's moody and she's mean, so no one bothers to call. She's one of the lost sheep sitting there, right in YOUR Kingdom Hall. * She comes to all the meetings, to the field and mingles with the friends. But once she goes back home again, the heartache soon begins. She grew up in the Truth, has served Jehovah all her life. All she ever wanted was to be a Christian wife. Now she's past the bloom of youth. Her dreams have not come true. She's tempted and frustrated and scared of what she might do. You probably think she's strong and she doesn't need a call. But she's one of the lost sheep sitting there, right in YOUR Kingdom Hall. * When searching from door to door and bringing more sheep in, don't forget all the sheep who are already in the pen. All of these are true stories of people at the Hall. Take some time and look closely and see who needs a call. * We always remember the sick, the single parents and the old, but can we try to include still others in our fold ? Remember, that Jehovah doesn't want anyone to fall.
And that there might be a lost sheep sitting there in YOUR Kingdom Hall

Thank you very much dear sister @Ma Ai Yes, a very needed reminder for us ! We must look with our eyes and with our heart Not all JW able for that, but we all can try it and inform us by an elder or other sisters. With a good will we can find a good way ! We all can suddenly fall in a deep hole and we're of sure so glad, when anyone can help and bring us out there...

Importend is the learning point of that story and not the source where I got it ! I am never on any apostate page ! I remember this story from the past... and read it now again.

Very needed reminder for everyone. The poetry is poignant. Each person knows their own heart's pain. We will be fulfilling the 2 greatest commands Jesus spoke about at Matthew 22:37-39, by each one of us sincerely caring for each other. Love all those whom Jehovah loves. <3

Queen Esther reacted to Ma Ai in "How long, O Jehovah?"—Isa. 6:11. – ?????
Jehovah loves ones willing to wait on Him, doing what they can, in harmony with His purpose. Patience is His gift and a virtue. We must "become imitators of God, as beloved children." (Ephesians 5:1)

Queen Esther reacted to James Thomas Rook Jr. in CAN WE SPOT A LOST SHEEP ?......
Agreed ..... Bro. Charles Taze Russel in the FIRST issue of the Watchtower stated that if the Truth came from Satan, it would still be the Truth ... which of course is self evident ... UNLESS ....
Something did not go someone's way, and said something that was "unapproved" ... or from an "unapproved" source.
THEN they start collecting fire wood and start chanting "She's a WITCH ... BURN HER !".
... or "him", as the case may be.

Queen Esther got a reaction from Melinda Mills in Jehovah in English - Basic statement by Jehovah's Witnesses...
Jehovah in English - Basic statement by Jehovah's Witnesses:
The Hebrew Name of God יהוה rendered generally as YHWH and thought to be pronounced in Hebrew something like Yahweh or perhaps Yahoweh is properly translated into English as Jehovah.
Argument by opposers:
That is not the correct way to do it, because Someone from the US named John who visits Mexico or Spain is not Juan; they are still John.
Counter-argument by Jehovah’s Witnesses:
Jesus is not God’s Son’s name either; it is properly rendered in the Hebrew as Yeshua or Yehoshua, and even the Greek is Iesous, yet the opposers do not complain about it being rendered as “Jesus” in English.
Other Hebrew names are rendered or translated into English with no complaint.
Bibles in English use John and in Spanish Juan, etc.
To settle this problem, what we need is Biblical example. That should settle the matter to the satisfaction of all.
“But in Joppa there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which, when translated, means Dorcas. She abounded in good deeds and gifts of mercy that she was rendering.”—Acts 9:36.
(“Dorcas” is the Greek and corresponds with “Tabitha” which is the Aramaic; both names mean “Gazelle.”)
So, which one is her name, Tabitha or Dorcas? Let’s continue reading in Acts 9:39 & 40:
“At that Peter rose and went with them. And when he arrived, they led him up into the upper chamber; and all the widows presented themselves to him weeping and exhibiting many inner garments and outer garments that Dorcas used to make while she was with them. But Peter put everybody outside and, bending his knees, he prayed, and, turning to the body, he said: “Tabitha, rise!” She opened her eyes and, as she caught sight of Peter, she sat up.”
So, both names are used interchangeably!
Even the Apostle Peter, whose name means “A Piece of Rock,” is named in five different ways in the Scriptures: by the Hebrew “Symeon,” the Greek “Simon” (from a Hebrew root meaning “hear; listen”), “Peter” (a Greek name he alone bears in the Scriptures), its Semitic equivalent “Cephas” (perhaps related to the Hebrew kephim´ [rocks] used at Job 30:6; Jeremiah 4:29), and the combination “Simon Peter.”—Acts 15:14; Matthew 10:2; 16:16; John 1:42.
And need we even mention “Saul, who is also Paul” as stated in Acts 13:9 ?
Therefore, based upon these Scriptural precedents, the English Jehovah is as correct as the Hebrew יהוה when referring to our Almighty God, the Most High over all the earth.—Exodus 6:3; Psalm 83:18.
One thing for sure: יהוה is NOT LORD nor GOD, which is what most Bibles replace it with.
( I posted that for our mature Brother's and Sister's.... maybe, they have something to tell ?
