Mine is Coca-Cola Red

and yes... you must choose only ONE... and you should be very specific.
Although if your a guy and you say "Chartruse" I will raise one eyebrow. LOL
I even added a category for Coca-Cola on this forum... ;-)
 

Make more money. You have to be able to make more money than you did last year. If you do this every year you work, you’ll end up ok. Invest 10% of your paycheck before anything else. Use a company 401(k) or automatic investment into an IRA to automatically invest 10% of what you make for your future. Retirement will be the biggest purchase you will ever make, be sure to prepare accordingly. Prepare for the worst. Don’t skip out on insurance and be sure to have an emergency fund. You should have disability, life, car, health, and home insurance. You also need to have at least 3-months worth of expenses in cash in a savings account as your emergency fund. Track your money. Use one of the million free money tracking apps to find out what you are spending money on. You’ll find out really fast if you are spending money on bullshit or on things you actually value. Be patient. Money does grow on trees, but trees take a long time to grow. Just keep watering that little hole in the ground and you’ll be good one day. Don’t borrow money to buy anything that won’t make you money. Don’t buy a car with a loan, because cars go down in value. Don’t buy clothes with a credit card, because clothes go down in value. Unless you are purchasing real estate or a business, you probably shouldn’t borrow money. Spend money. Life is meant to be lived. Spend money on what you care about. Travel the world, buy a nice pair of shoes, and go have a fancy dinner. Just be sure to pay cash.

Christ is the power of God.—1 Cor. 1:24.
https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/5/14
The Source of Christ’s power is Jehovah himself, so we have reason to believe that Almighty God is fully capable of controlling the forces of nature. Consider a few examples. Before the Flood, Jehovah stated: “In just seven days, I will make it rain on the earth for 40 days and 40 nights.” (Gen. 7:4) Similarly, at Exodus 14:21, we read: “Jehovah drove the sea back with a strong east wind.” And we read at Jonah 1:4: “Jehovah hurled a strong wind at the sea, and there was such a violent storm on the sea that the ship was about to be wrecked.” It is encouraging to know that Jehovah can control the elements. Clearly, planet Earth’s future is in good hands. How wonderful it is to think of the time when no natural forces will kill or maim, for “the tent of God [will be] with mankind”! (Rev. 21:3, 4) We can be assured that the power of God exercised through Christ will control the forces of nature during the Millennium. w15 6/15 1:15, 16

Cristo es el poder de Dios (1 Cor. 1:24).
https://wol.jw.org/es/wol/dt/r4/lp-s/2017/5/14
Si Jesús pudo controlar las fuerzas de la naturaleza fue porque contaba con el poder que su Padre le había dado. Como es obvio, el Dios Todopoderoso es perfectamente capaz de hacer lo mismo. Veamos algunos ejemplos. Antes del Diluvio, Jehová dijo: “Dentro de solo siete días más voy a hacer que llueva sobre la tierra cuarenta días y cuarenta noches” (Gén. 7:4). Luego, en Éxodo 14:21 leemos que “Jehová empezó a hacer que el mar se retirara por un fuerte viento del este”. Y Jonás 1:4 nos dice que “Jehová mismo arrojó un gran viento en el mar, y llegó a haber una gran tormenta en el mar; y en cuanto a la nave, estaba a punto de ser destrozada”. Saber que Dios tiene control absoluto sobre la naturaleza inspira confianza en nosotros. Podemos decir sin temor a equivocarnos que el futuro de nuestro planeta está en las mejores manos. Llegará el día en el que las fuerzas de la naturaleza dejen de hacer daño al hombre, pues “la tienda de Dios [estará] con la humanidad” (Rev. 21:3, 4). Podemos estar seguros de que el poder de Dios, ejercido mediante Cristo, mantendrá bajo control a la naturaleza durante los mil años. w15 15/6 1:15, 16

THE  FRANCISCO  POPE  PRAISES  GOD’S  WITNESSES  WORLDWIDE !!
Moving – Pascom Porto Feliz: Catholic Conference discusses increasing Witnesses … What drives so many people to become Jehovah’s Witnesses? This was the question asked by some clerics, as shown by the following quotations. For example, in Bologna, Italy, the ecclesiastical authorities, with the approval of the pope, held a conference to discuss ways to combat the success of Jehovah’s Witnesses.
The Catholic Church raised a “cry of alarm”, the newspaper La Republica, because every year ten thousand Catholics become Jehovah’s Witnesses. The Jesuit Giuseppe De Rosa said that “the religious point of view the most dangerous are Jehovah’s Witnesses. They come fully trained, and always have the Bible in hand.”
In an article that deals specifically with Jehovah’s Witnesses, the Jesuit journal La Civilta Cattolica said:
“The first reason for the spread of this movement are the propaganda techniques [ie, in preaching]. On the one hand, the work is thorough, carried from house to house by people who are strictly trained in this work, and are deeply convinced [ …] ”
“The second reason for the success of TJs is the force of attraction of Jehovah’s message, because it can meet the needs, demands and expectations of the people of our time. First, answers the need for certainty, which is much appreciated at a time where everything is uncertain and unstable. […] Above all, it is an absolutely safe revelation of the future and, therefore, all who accepted, experience freedom from fear and anxiety and can face the future with joy, with ensuring that survive the destruction that will come the great day of God’s judgment on a wicked world, to live in eternal happiness on earth. Second, Jehovah’s message helps to overcome the concern of the individual against the woes of this world, announces that soon will end the unbearable situation of today, and soon, so there will be a new era will be born a new world in which all the wicked will be removed now triumph. […] ”
“The third reason for the success of TJs is that this movement gives its members a precise identity and strong, and is a place where they were greeted with warmth and a sense of brotherhood and solidarity.”
The Vatican document analyzed the needs of people today, and the quote above the Jesuit journal La Civilta Cattolica showed that the message of Jehovah’s Witnesses meet those needs. This also showed Vittorio Messori Catholic writer in his recent book Scommesse sulla morte (a bet on death), who writes: “It makes us think that Jehovah’s Witnesses, is one of the religious denominations of the fastest growing in the world. It is among the religions that are practiced in many countries and perhaps […] is first in terms of fervor, zeal, activism, the ability to make proselytes. ” “And his presence, increasingly pronounced, is not limited to Christian tradition countries, but reaching the whole world, where in the name of Jehovah, and before long, they get results that are superior to those of Catholic missionaries, Protestants and Orthodox, who have worked for centuries. ”
“This stunning expansive force is incomprehensible only to those who simply do not want to admit that […] course in how to understand the Bible, Jehovah’s Witnesses meet the real needs that other theologies do not meet.” “You can not get around the issue suggesting that the growth of witnesses is because they scare people is precisely the opposite:. Unlike the churches” official “, deny the existence of hell and preach the destruction, disappearance after death to the wicked and unbelieving. This may be an unpleasant prospect, but certainly less frightening than the threat of a terrible pain for all eternity. “Yes, the God of Jehovah’s Witnesses is a loving God, and not one that terrorizes the people .
The following quote is the Catholic magazine Mondo ERRE March 1986: “It must be said that Jehovah’s Witnesses are the first to live the faith they preach: Do not IRAM, do not smoke, do not accumulate wealth, remain outside the political discussions […] pay taxes. They live a virtuous and honest life, they are happy and helpful. All this has made people appreciate the ”
I’m glad to know that they have had success in evangelizing them my family is Catholic more from small learn to admire their work in all the earth ….
