Queen Esther reacted to Judith Bosch in Global letter-writing campaign,there has been an update on the instructions on jw.org
Anna I believe that, as any mail addressed to authorities, unless different, it's the authorities that have to open them perhaps by their administrative assistances if nothing else, but the letters will get to the offices addressed to. So those offices will have to contend with the bombardment of our letter writing campaign. But just think, as the one picture shows the line up at the post office what a witnesses to all in all countries who are writing. And with all the talk about Russia in our news here in the U.S. the post office people will certainly be very curious to what is going on because I'm sure they have never seen anything like this before even though there has been letter writing way in the past all those in the post offices now are all new people I'm sure. I was told today that our CO said if all Witnesses wrote just one letter those letters put together would be 25 miles long. I sent out to all 6 on the list and then my husband sent out to all 6 on the list and a person can write multiple times so I might just send out another 6 this week.

Queen Esther reacted to Arauna in What Sort of Person Are YOU? Don't Be Mislead
It is a daily struggle to make sure that we are in line with Jehovah's requirements. The distractions are so many and our own flaws make it hard.... but every day we have the opportunity to show Jehovah that we love him again.
Satan wants us to stumble - to be defiled in some way - so keep on the watch!

Queen Esther reacted to Queen Esther in 26 марта 2017 - Один из российских адвокатов говорит здесь, что его правительство делает ошибку, если они пытаются запретить людей Иеговы ...... очень интересно.
#StopJWBan Письма Свидетелей Иеговы Российскому руководству !!!
Опубликовано: 26 марта 2017
Главный редактор журнала «Религия и право» рассматривает иск о запрете Свидетелей Иеговы как колоссальную юридическую и религиозную ошибку.
«С моей точки зрения, федеральные органы исполнительной власти, то есть министерство юстиции, совершили колоссальную юридическую ошибку и ... религиозные исследования. Вся история показывает, что попытка запрета, ликвидации не приводит ни к чему Только Свидетели Иеговы будут скрываться.
И когда я разговариваю с религиозными людьми, с духовенством, они задают мне вопрос, по сути, риторический: «Анатолий Васильевич, что происходит?» Это колоссальная ошибка федеральных органов исполнительной власти. Я не говорю о нарушении основных конституционных прав и свобод граждан. Статья 28 Конституции, которая гарантирует свободу совести и религии, просто попирается, просто игнорируется.
Свидетели Иеговы существуют сегодня по всему миру. И даже нацистская Германия, которая для них создавала свой лагерь в Освенциме, или на польском языке называется Аушвиц, где был убит один миллион четыреста тысяч человек - он был создан для Свидетелей Иеговы. Они носили пурпурный треугольник ... И чем это закончилось? Он закончился крахом нацизма. Но другие государства сделали из этого правильные выводы. Сегодня Свидетели Иеговы существуют, свободно действуют в той же Германии, в других европейских государствах. Но почему это случилось с нами? Я задаю этот вопрос. И я абсолютно уверен, что это не приведет ни к чему хорошему.
Я, пожалуй, не разделяю кредо Свидетелей Иеговы, но сегодня я за то, что защищаю их, потому что здесь начинается нарушение прав.
И я хочу напомнить вам знаменитые слова - они могут показаться банальными, но их следует повторять чаще, - известный священник Мартин Нимеллер, кстати, немецкий священник, лютеранский, сказал: «Сначала они пришли за Коммунисты, но я ничего не сказал, потом они пришли за евреями, но я ничего не сказал, потому что я тоже не был евреем. Они пришли за католиками - я ничего не сказал. И когда они пришли за мной , Некому было сказать слово в мою защиту. "Так что, не молчи. Если мы говорим, что мы - правовое государство, мы являемся государством, в котором гарантируются права и свободы человека, где закон имеет власть верховенства, тогда давайте поднимем наш голос в защиту Свидетелей Иеговы! "

The editor-in-chief of the journal "Religion and Law" regards the claim on the prohibition of Jehovah's Witnesses as a colossal legal and religious mistake.
"From my point of view, the federal bodies of executive power, which is the Ministry of Justice, have made a colossal legal error and ... religious studies. The whole history shows that the attempt to ban, liquidation does not lead to anything. Just Jehovah's Witnesses will be in hiding.
And when I talk with religious people, with clergymen, they ask me a question, in fact, rhetorical: "Anatoly Vasilievich, what happens?" This is a colossal error of the federal executive bodies. I'm not talking about the violation of basic constitutional rights and freedoms of citizens. Article 28 of the Constitution, which guarantees freedom of conscience and religion, is simply trampled upon, simply ignored.
Jehovah's Witnesses exist today throughout the world. And even Nazi Germany, which for them was creating their Auschwitz camp, or in Polish it is called Auschwitz, where one million four hundred thousand people were killed - it was created for Jehovah's Witnesses. They wore a purple triangle ... And how did it end? It ended in the collapse of Nazism. But other states have drawn the right conclusions from this. Today, Jehovah's Witnesses exist, freely operate in the same Germany, in other European states. But why does this happen to us? I'm asking this question. And I'm absolutely sure that it will not lead to anything good.
I, perhaps, do not share the creed of Jehovah's Witnesses, but today I am for defending them, because the violation of rights begins here.
And I want to remind you of the famous words - they may sound trite, but they should be repeated more often, - the famous priest Martin Nimöller, by the way the German priest, the Lutheran, who said: "At first they came for the Communists, but I did not say anything. Then they came for the Jews, but I did not say anything, because I was not a Jew either. They came for the Catholics - I did not say anything. And when they came for me, there was no one to say a word in my defense. " So, do not be silent. If we say that we are a law-based state, we are a state where human rights and freedoms are guaranteed, where the law has the power of supremacy, then let's raise our voice in defense of Jehovah's Witnesses!

Queen Esther reacted to John Lindsay Barltrop in RUSSIA: Jehovah’s Witnesses Mobilize Global Response to Threat of Ban in Russia
When I went down to post my letters at the local post office, I happened to see the postage stamp book on the counter and sitting on top of it were the A$2.95 International Economy Air Mail stamps. The Post Mistress asked, "What is going on? I have had numerous requests for these stamps this morning." She does know that I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses, because I do that Post Office when I do business territory.
I explained to her what was going on in the Russian Federation concerning our brothers, and how they are supposed to have freedom of religion, etc., she did not know anything about it............well she does now!!!

Queen Esther got a reaction from The Librarian in March 25, 2017 - Putin Delivers Speech on Moral Crisis of Western States - Putin Slams Governments for Imperialism, Pedophilia, and “Faith in Satan”...
Watch the video and let us know what you think....
He mentions satanism and pedophilia as products of a moral crisis engineered by western governments themselves.
Putin Delivers Speech on Moral Crisis of Western States
Putin Slams Governments for Imperialism, Pedophilia, and “Faith in Satan”
March 25, 2017
In a rarely seen speech, Putin states that there is a moral crisis occurring in the west and it is one that is purposely created by governments.
In short, the moral foundations of objective right and wrong often linked to Christendom have eroded.
In their place the imperial oligarchs have erected a system that reverses what is good and replaces it with propaganda that leads to cultural decay and erasure of identity, according to Putin.
He suggests that traditional faith in God has been replaced by Satanism. It sounds crazy enough, but then again, there does seem to be at least some degree of affinity for occult religious practices among certain politically connected individuals. Whether it is “Satanism” or something altogether different, is a question we will leave others to decide.
He says parties which “promote the propaganda of pedophilia” have been seriously considered as legitimate due to the excesses of political correctness.
The speech has received renewed interest in light of the current investigation into US politicians involved in sex trafficking and pedophile rings (what many are calling #pedogate).
And Putin is not just talking, he’s taking action too.
Fairly recently he implemented a ban on any US foster parents adopting Russian children.
The ban seems extreme, but one must admit it is true that the foster care industry in the US is rife with trafficking and child prostitution, using “adoption” as a front in many cases.
Putin then adds that while this moral crisis is happening at a national level, there are international attempts to eliminate sovereign nations and replace them with a system of globalized hegemony.
We know that we’re supposed to listen to the corporate media and believe that Putin is inherently diabolical.
But on this point, at least, Putin is technically correct. There is indeed an international western power-structure bent on creating global Statehood or a unipolar geopolitical order. Rockefeller’s recent death reminds us that he admitted he was part of this structure.
Perhaps this is why the prospect of national autonomy, whether it be in Africa or Latin America or the Middle East, has always frightened the global transnationalists.
Nations that do not cooperate with the shift into a global hegemonic order are demonized and propped up as bogeymen. A moment’s reflection on history furnishes numerous examples.
A permanent, unelected form of government, or what is known as the deep state, usually creates a pretext for conquering such nations by force, eliminating their chance for self-determination.
Given Putin’s views, it’s perhaps natural to question if Russia has become the latest bogeyman for the deep state and its NATO allies.
As political philosopher Noam Chomsky has pointed out in the past, the deep state has multiple ways of taking down those who defy its quest for a globalized economic order.
It can send CIA operatives into the defiant nation who pose as “journalists” or “musicians.” Those operatives begin spreading propaganda to incite a violent color revolution and install a US-friendly puppet.
As the defiant nation, you have a relatively narrow range of options. If you let the operatives spread the propaganda, you risk being violently overthrown, or becoming a failed state. If you imprison or assassinate the operatives, the deep state will then use its media broadcasting centers in the West to portray you as a blood thirsty dictator who kills journalists and musicians.
Another technique used by the deep state might be to attack its own political institutions and infrastructure and blame it on you. This can be done not only physically but digitally with tools that can leave a “fingerprint” falsely indicating that you were the attacker. It is then claimed that you are threatening democracy and must be eliminated.
In every case, the deep state will use the situation in an attempt to initiate military conflict and dominate the defiant country.

The love the Christ has compels us.—2 Cor. 5:14.
http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/3/25
Our love for Jesus moves us to work whole-souled in the preaching and disciple-making work. (Matt. 28:19, 20; Luke 4:43) During the Memorial season, we will have the opportunity to serve as an auxiliary pioneer and spend 30 or 50 hours in the preaching work. Could you arrange your circumstances to do so? One 84-year-old widower did not feel that he could auxiliary pioneer because of his age and poor health. Nonetheless, the pioneers in his area rallied to his aid. They provided transportation and carefully chose territory that he could work, so that he could meet his 30-hour goal. Could you reach out and help someone share in the joy of auxiliary pioneering during the Memorial season? Of course, not all of us may be able to auxiliary pioneer. Even so, we can use whatever time and energy we have to increase our sacrifice of praise to Jehovah. w16.01 2:7, 11

We want to go with you, for we have heard that God is with you people.—Zech. 8:23.
http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/3/26
If it is not possible to know with certainty the names of all spiritual Israelites on earth today, how can members of the other sheep “go with” them? Notice what the prophecy in Zechariah states concerning the figurative ten men. These ones would “take firm hold of the robe of a Jew, saying: ‘We want to go with you, for we have heard that God is with you people.’” Although only one Jew is mentioned here, in both instances the pronoun “you” refers to more than one person. This spiritual Jew must, then, be a composite person, not just one individual! So it is not necessary to identify every spiritual Jew and then go with him or her. Rather, we need to identify these ones as a group and then support them as such. In no way do the Scriptures encourage us to follow an individual. Jesus is our Leader.—Matt. 23:10. w16.01 4:4
