Yep. I have told my own story here many times. How my 9 month baby had a full day surgery to remove cancer from both sides of the chest cavity which also stuck to the spine. The fact that she did NOT have blood saved her life. Her miracle is amazing because she is almost 42 years old. Yes, I researched blood....... very damaging and most people who die from anaphylactic shock due to blood - it is not on the death certificate. They say "complications from surgery".

Interesting words srecko. Any "aquired" demeanor is hypocritical. I believe in being who I am and showing it. JWs come from all parts of the world and have different personalities. As long as we show love and kindness, impartiality we are acceptable to jehovah and each other. When we expect others to be like ourselves it is a red flag. Live and let live.

Display of ego - has nothing to do with scholarship but is all about displaying a quality of satan. Knowledge puffs up - love builds up. Some people have to prove they are right at all cost. They are not thinking of their neighbour but themselves. We all fall into this trap...... but surely there is a time to stop?

Moral damage effects all if them. Even if they do not do those things - they no longer hate what is bad but condone it.

I don't think so...... very few courses are worth their salt these days and children come out dumber than before they went into the propaganda machine.

Yea, agree. The level of judgment is like a nagging wife.....(I will refrain from using hate-OCD MO). I had a few good moments with two of her cohorts when they stepped out of their usual MO shoes yesterday and we could just decently share thoughts like human beings.... I enjoyed that.

Vocational training is the best. Countries which still offer this kind of training do well in manufacturing Germany has a tradition if this kind of training and has combined it with on-the-job training while going to night school.. In south Africa we had many renowned vocational schools which were accepted al over the world (like the German model) . Then the UN came in with their advice and guidelines for generic degrees..... and they closed vocational colleges. Joblessness sky-rocketed. I recall when I lived in UK, there was also a system for this kind of vocational training. I have forgotten the name of it now. But one could train for all kinds of vocations. My daughter studied for a specific type of buyer in supply chain management. She works in the City of London in banking now and earns substantially more than her husband who has a master decree in chemical engineering, and a few additional diplomas such as project management. If one chooses a career wisely one can still have a job in difficult times. My son did not choose a career in what he loved to do. He chose an essential vocation in manufacturing which is similar to an industrial engineer. Later he did a degree in Packaging in which one learnt about all the different bacteria, temperatures etc in food packaging. Last year, when he wanted to leave dangerous South Africa, he immediately got a job in NZ (his vocational training got him in - not the degree). There was a waiting list of half million people...... his prospective company requested the NZ government that they needed him urgently and he was pushed to the front of the line. He is there already for 10 months and enjoying the working conditions. Not as stressfull as SA. Vocational training is tops. I can attest to that. The GB has always pushed vocational training in place of degrees...... and they are absolutely correct on this. Generic degrees are useless - just a debt-ridden piece of paper that does not guarantee a job. And universities are hotbeds of foreign subversive propaganda these days.

Just a change of one word and one can change the meaning of the sentence. Kinda sneaky I would say. The question about WHO the slave is: is not a parable; it is about identifying a slave by the job that is being fulfilled........ providing food to all the rest of the slaves... it is like an identifying mark.......of this slave in the last days.... So do I believe this.... but we are talking here about the slave that will be doing a specific job in the last days.... and the scripture in Luke 12 indicates that he is 'appointed' to do so by the one to whom he is accountable. if he does not do a good job he is accountable. I feel that young children are in grave danger too! Especially with the new UN based curricula. This is why it is imperative for parents to speak to their young children a lot and daily..... to counterbalance the sexual rubbish and other junk they are learning in school. Parents need to be very vigilant right now. Homeschool if it is at all possible. Agree. "We know we all have knowledge Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. 2 If anyone thinks he knows something, he does not yet know it as he should know it. 3 But if anyone loves God, this one is known by him." . 1 cor 8: One does not need higher education to have the love Jesus showed. In fact education is a barrier to be trusting like a child.

True. We do not take sides. Only government under christ can restore the earth to it's original purpose...... and it is a shame that so many people have lost their jobs and many children will suffer....... We must therefore get ready to help teach those who have realized from this lockdown that things are not kosher. It's time for them to learn about jehovah.

We have a lot of it direct in our inbox - electronically.

Sorry, in universities there is no separation. The ideology of amorality and atheism, together with far left ideology is everywhere. Atheism and commies are bedfellows. That is why there are so much bolchevists- type social revolution and anarchy going on and getting worse. Notice - it also asks a question..... WHO is the slave...... YOU as an individual need to recognise it to be able to give the answer. This slave is APPOINTED! over his body of attendants! He has a position/job to give the others food. The scripture goes on to show who he is accountable to....... If he gets drunk or lazy or inattentive he will not be dressed with the holy clothes of righteousness. He will be caught off guard. This is the focus..... that he must remain awake because he is accountable.

No prob. I prefer to talk to you when you show some kindness - even if it is to stand up for shrecko. While you openly call GB dictators, bad insinuations can also come out as accusations.... referring to Mr shrek. If jehovah had to judge all of us on our actions in our youth or the past - none would qualify as servants. Some people are very judgmental on others' past or their performance ....but they themselves would have done worse if they were in their shoes..... such as filling GB shoes. It is so easy to judge. I always ask myself what I would do if I were in their shoes. If you live in the past one can never heal...... yet people walk around with baggage forever! They cannot move forward! They keep renewing the old baggage by referring to it and mulling it in the brain. The brain keeps making new emotional connections which are detrimental to themselves! The translation for Kurdish is done in Germany and printed.....there. This is one example of rare language done in Germany. The watchtower in every language is the same..... so the source is the same for unity and uniformity. So is the other meeting. JWs have a similar life outlook..... jehovah comes first in our lives. To me it is a miracle that we all view ourselves as one nation....... despite a world that is wracked by divisions and hate. They shall identify us by the love amongst us.

I am almost 68 and got an immunity disorder when I was forced to take a vaccine before immigrating to USA on green card at age 55 years old. I also ate genetically engineered soy......in US..... almost died. Thereafter I did proper investigation of USA food sources and FDA..... and got the shock of my life! I thought US will keep it's people safe. I was very athletic (climbed mountains) and still active but plagued by an immunity disorder. I was prescribed hydroxychloroquine but do not use any medication. I use herbs and homeopathy...... which I make myself. I would have been dead by now if I used the pharma medications prescribed me by doctors who follow big pharma protocols.

They will be happy when US fails. Their plans with China and the world will come to fruition.

And it is! You are too blind to see what is going on! It is their duty to warn us. But many parents still do not listen and afterward sit with children who do not go on in the truth. Your idea that anyone can be that slave is also useless because then we will not be held together as a nation. Isaiah 2: 2-4 clearly indicates that the nation of jehovah (which comes out of all nations) will learn war no more and Zion (heavenly zion) will direct it. Jehovah used a nation in time of Israel. He used congregations under direction of apostles and elders in time of the first spread of christianity and now has a world-wide nation kept together by the same teachings. Our teaching comes from one source to provide unity and a sense that the congregations are all part of one unity world-wide. One nation under jehovah. Our loyalty to jehovah only...... not to the governments we live under. We have the same pincipled love for all.

Of course ! And there are many chapters in the bible dealing with unselfish and principled Christian love. We must be prepared to give our lives for each other - like jesus. But Luke 21 and Math 24 deals with the time of END of Jewish system and the greater end. It talks about preaching in the entire inhabited earth! So this slave will feed fellow believers all over the earth with proper food at right time. For this one needs a central dispensary which is efficient and quick!

The generic degrees, to just produce degreed people, is the problem. One cannot get a decent job with them. (Generic degrees pushed by UN). Degrees are no longer value for money. Integrity of universities is lost. Many department are funded by organizations which influence the "studies" and foreign governments such as China, Qatar etc are influencing policy etc. Lol. Since many of our teachings have changed...... why hang onto the past? Move on to the future! The future is much more fun and gives us hope because the kingdom-government is our focus! We have enough detractors or hate-OCDs to keep referring to our past..... you know....... like a nagging wife! We need not go search out the past - the nagging wives bring it up all the time!

So the man who says the GB are dictators now wishes to interpret this word as a single person who will be giving all his fellow slaves food at proper time. One person......... must now be identified in time of end...as a slave, and he will encourage all to preach and print books to preach and make videos to keep the faithful strong..... wow!

They are not the UN. The beast in rev 13 looks like the consecutive beasts in Daniel 7 & 8 which describes the babylonian, Persian, Greek and Roman empires. It is the world political system. The "image " of the beast is the UN (a scarlet beast which looks exactly like the seven headed beast). It later becomes the 8th king for short while. The beast heads are the world powers (political system) which ruled throughout history over gods people - so we know where we are in the stream of time. Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia, Greece, Rome with its little British horn speaking big things which later formed the next empire, AND the seventh head of beast - Anglo-American world power. 7 heads and ten horns - count them. Now the iron and clay is so acrimonius nothing is sticking together. Daniel 2 from verse 43. Now the King of North will do its thing..... (Daniel 11 from verse 36) .. and "the "image of the beast". They seem to be growing together now into a powerful combo to bring the final world saga of bad human rulership under satans control. The Anglo-American will still exist (but not have the power it had before) when the end comes. The ' image of the beast ' will rule or give orders for a short time. It has features of all the other empires that ruled before it because those countries are members of it now. An ' image" is a reflection of all governments. This means it is an organization which reflects the decisions made by all its members. The UN - or an organization like it- will be giving the world instructions or policies to follow. All members vote on its policies in so-called democracy so it is majority rule ( the countries with more power and form voting blocks get their policies through). This is why I have been watching the UN and its membership and the documents that have been endorsed by 176 (sometimes almost 200 nations). I agree it is a very dysfunctional organization (it is macabre) but it seems the world and its leaders really look up to it to lead them to peace and security. All the super rich have charitable foundations which do not pay tax in their own countries. They give their money to UN or charitable organizations /lobby to put people in place in the UN and in local governments where their goals of agenda 21 are promoted. The super rich support it with money because the super rich combined (they work together) have more money than most governments. Some of the super rich work with China and Qatar. Qatar is so extreme that other Islamic countries do not like it. All this is breaking down the autonomy of powerful countries to eventually get them to bow to the world goals of UN. (Trump is ruling by executive order ......which can be reversed when the next lot come in and congress/regress is now a farcicle diversion). The UN loves China - despite its growing totalitarian attitude- which is more like Hitler's stance before WW2. Before WW2 there was also a trade "pushing" (embargoes etc) , an economic "pushing ". Yes we are in dangerous times and subversion and undermining is going on at super level. We already have threat of war as Chinese are oppressing many peoples. Tibet- like situation developing at India-border, Taiwan, Hong Kong etc. How right you are! They will turn against religion as prophesied. This is an atheist organization with totalitarian tendencies..... it believes in control. It also believes in materialism........ to take away property rights, government autonomy and individual autonomy and to replace it with a world-wide federal government which will divide wealth and bring equality of outcome to all. The collective well-being is more important than the individual's well-being. Analyze the impact of UN agenda 21, agenda 2030 and migrant compact 2018 and you will see. At superficial level it looks innocent enough but it has a very dark side when fully implemented. The DAVOS, G20 all have same goals as UN...... How it will play out, no-one can tell but I doubt the G20 will be accepted by smaller countries of the world to rule because they feel they are not represented in it. It must be an organization with more equal representation...... that is why my money is still on the UN as the ' "image' of the beast........ and read revelation 17:11. If you read carefully it looks exactly like the seven headed beast but is an ' image ' of the beast and scarlet in color! The "image" of the beast went into an abyss and then came out. This fits the UN which was the League of Nations after WW1, went into the abyss at start of WW2.....and then came back out again as UN, after WW2........ it has a spiritistic agenda but I will not go into that now ....... but it is scarlet....... Will it have the blood of many, many lives on its hands? When it becomes the eighth king it may have some re-organization or get a new functional name such as new world order ???? Who will know? Time will tell. Well put. UN has people in all political parties which towards world peace and security under one government. They have bought into the propaganda. Rev 16: 14 - 16 the propaganda includes kings, high officials, slaves etc. UN is calling shots on education and the indoctrination of our children at a young age to accept a NWO, collective responsibility, and a new morality as directed by UN policy. As I indicated before, this NWO will not tolerate religion of any kind, only worship of itself. Satan wants to compromise all Christian's and all other people to not be eligible for everlasting life. Immorality and worship of the state......... mark of the beast disqualifies one for approval by jehovah. These people want revolution, cultural and equality revolution..... look to their backgrounds and you will see the influence. They want a new world order. For this everything in current order must be destroyed. They do not believe in God, hence the new world philosophy makes sense to them and they are bolchevist in their goal. Violence is a means to an end. I saw this in south Africa when I lived there. They buss them into other areas to create anarchy. We are living in rapidly changing times...... one can try to make sense of it by looking to the bible. This is where our comfort lies as we already know the outcome. When one knows the outcome, one can start to identify some if the steps leading thereto.

So true. Only the triassic ones or those in a bubble do. Why look back when you can look forward? New ones look at present teachings. The only past they look at is the old history if Israel and some even find that too much.... but necessary. How can one compare history and teachings from 150 years ago (when they were shooting up the wild west and people took months to go into the interior with wagons and there were slaves in the south) to present times? Lol..... I myself read old publications but remain aware of its historical context - it is useful but still old. WARNING! Higher education is not what it was EVEN 10 years ago. One lives in a bubble if one does not know about the violence, emotional triggers, injustices and loss of free speech on campuses....(there are just too many negatives to mention here).. It is critical times - hard to deal with. Why put your child in that hotbed of propaganda where money from countries like Qatar and China is buying the opinions of the professors ? ....... You pay for this together with LQBTQ indoctrination and sit with large debt for the rest of your life!

His opinion...... but not what the bible indicates. The question it poses indicates that each Christian must identify the slave for themself. " Who is the faithful and discreet slave?". Even a language scholar should notice it is a question....

Opposers always refer to pyramids....... and some are all too eager to always go back 150 years.....when I have explained the historical context of this so many times on this forum. They are deliberately obtuse - not critical thinkers. So many religious organizations looked at this in the 19th century because this was so much in the news. Archeology was a new subject and the newest discoveries every week in the news. The oldest pyramid they thought was built in time of Israel so it had special significance. Hardly an inquiring religion which did not look into it.... But it is definitely not edifying anyone today - just the opposers. ... so why witnesses keep bringing this up.... to look smart (reasonable) or what? I fail to see the motivation behind it.

Jehovah never tests anyone with evil and does not predetermine someone to be evil. Jehovah is perfect and cannot do evil or produce evil. It is therefore clear that an individual or a group of individuals could turn evil and could form part of an evil slave in the last days by opposing their brothers on earth. Jehovah would never determine that some would turn evil. It is by their own choices that they become evil. So an evil slave could potentially exist - just as God foresaw that someone close to jesus could betray him. However, jehovah has always looked after his people and appointed people to look after them. The bible is full of examples such as judges, prophets, apostles and a body in Jerusalem which guided the fledgling congregation. The scriptures are clear that there would be a slave to feed his people in the last days.

Antifa is active there. Racial hatred is being pushed by many front organizations which receive funding from "foundations". It is leading to anarchy...... so troops must step in to keep peace and UN may have reason to send UN troops to help....You are right the programmed masses (via propaganda) are acting according to plan and it is happening faster than anyone can imagine.

The entire world order changed after WW1. This Anglo - world power already received its heavy wound by the sword ( war) and it was healed......(ww1) after USA joined WW1. The Anglo-American world power emerged from WW1 as the 2-horned beast with a new role in the world. The world has been following it in admiration ever since then. USA has been trying to institute democracy in many countries via money bribes, promises and even wars. A good example is China. They really believed that if China tastes capitalism they would turn democratic...... but instead they have built a communist empire with capitalist features...... using money to build the CCP government into a stronger position.
