PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN FROM BAD !!!!
The organization is making a global campaign to inform OUR PARENTS of extreme vigilance towards their minor children, preventing them from being attracted to the attention of predators, their way of dressing and making up.
In no way does the slave make children guilty of the violations that are happening, even among our own.
In no way do our children DECEIVE their VIOLATORS, using provocative clothes.
The system teaches that NOTHING CAN AVOID SEXUAL ASSAULT if it is decided.
Our religion teaches that ONE OF THE POSSIBILITIES that attract sexual predators is a provocative image and this matter can be corrected immediately by the parents.

Carol Ann Torres reacted to Bible Speaks in How to Age Gracefully — ? ??????
25 "Let his flesh become fresher* than in youth;
Let him return to the days of his youthful vigor.’ (Job 33:25)
The Bible presents a wonderful prospect—that of someone paying a ransom to effect a release from the process of aging!
??????????
How to Age Gracefully

?BE MODEST: “Wisdom is with the modest ones.” (Proverbs 11:2)
?BE BALANCED: “Women should adorn themselves in appropriate dress, with modesty and soundness of mind.” (1 Timothy 2:9)

Carol Ann Torres reacted to Bible Speaks in Women Who Made Jehovah’s Heart Rejoice - How Can You Also Being a Woman Make His Heart Rejoice, Amidst Opposition?
Women Who Made Jehovah’s Heart Rejoice - How Can You Also Being a Woman Make His Heart Rejoice, Amidst Opposition?
❤️?????❤️
“May Jehovah reward the way you act, and may there come to be a perfect wage for you from Jehovah.” (RUTH 2:12)
❤️?????❤️
FEAR of God impelled two women to defy a Pharaoh. Faith moved a prostitute to risk her life so as to protect two Israelite spies. Sensibleness and humility in a crisis helped a woman to save many lives and to prevent the anointed of Jehovah from incurring bloodguilt. Faith in Jehovah God along with a spirit of hospitality moved a widow and mother to give the last of her food to a prophet of God. These are just some of the many Scriptural examples of women who made Jehovah’s heart rejoice.
❤️?????❤️
Jehovah’s attitude toward such women and the blessings he bestowed upon them demonstrate that what pleases him above all else are spiritual qualities, which transcend gender.
❤️?????❤️
In today’s world, obsessed as it is with the physical, giving priority to one’s spirituality is a challenge. But that challenge can be met, as is demonstrated by millions of God-fearing women who form a large part of God’s people today.
❤️?????❤️
Such Christian women imitate the faith, discretion, hospitality, and other fine qualities demonstrated by God-fearing women mentioned in the Bible. Of course, Christian men too want to imitate the qualities shown by such exemplary women of ancient times.
(Romans 15:4; James 4:8)
❤️?????❤️
Each year, thousands of such women fearlessly preach the Bible’s life-saving message in lands where “the order of the king” forbids it, thus risking their freedom or even their life. (Hebrews 11:23; Acts 5:28, 29)
❤️?????❤️
Impelled by love of God and neighbor, such brave women allow no one to stop them from sharing the good news of God’s Kingdom with others. Consequently, many Christian women contend with opposition and persecution.
❤️?????❤️
Jehovah is fully aware of the deeds of such excellent, courageous women, and he will demonstrate his love for them by preserving their names in his “book of life,” provided they endure faithfully to the end. (Philippians 4:3; Matthew 24:13)
AMEN!

Carol Ann Torres reacted to Bible Speaks in ?The Golden Sunset ?
? The Golden Sunset ?
?The golden sea its mirror spreads
Beneath the golden skies,
And but a narrow strip between
Of land and shadow lies.
?The cloud-like rocks, the rock-like clouds,
Dissolved in glory float,
And, midway of the radiant flood,
Hangs silently the boat.
?The sea is but another sky,
The sky a sea as well,
And which is earth, and which the heavens
The eye can scarcely tell.
?So when for us life's evening hour
Soft-fading shall descend,
May glory, born of earth and heaven,
The earth and heavens blend;
?Flooded with peace the spirit float,
With silent rapture glow,
Till where earth ends and heaven begins,
The soul shall scarcely know.
But my trust is in Jehovah you know
I put a rest it all now, and think of his
Glow and beauty he has set till the joy
Of morning break

Carol Ann Torres reacted to Bible Speaks in Brother free after 20 years of jail for a crime he never committed
Brother free after 20 years of jail for a crime he never committed. Contreras was 20 years old when he was sentenced to spend the rest of his life in prison in 1997 after being accused of attempted murder and robbery.
He said he remembers that September 10, 1996 when he had returned from his night work and went straight to sleep.
" lived an ordinary life, worked as a security guard. I had two years I had graduated from high school and was planning to work on construction, but it was never done ", he said.
That same morning another person stopped at a gas station in compton and fired several times against another man identified as José García and fled in a vehicle waiting for him. Garcia spent 23 days at the hospital, but he survived.
A witness, who was waiting in his car to change the red light, saw the scene and copied the plates from the car where the thugs fled. The vehicle was registered under the name Contreras.
Shortly thereafter, the witness "Identified Contreras" as the gunman.
Contreras said he was arrested a few weeks after the armed attack. "first he was frustrated, but then he was trying not to fall into depression", he said.It's been 20 years." congratulations mijo. I love you so much ", said Maria Contreras to her frame while hugging him profusely in front of the cameras. The Mother said that since sunday - when she learned that contreras would be free - she was counting the hours anxiously.
"yes, justice was done to get my poor son out because he didn't sleep to think about him", he said. " I knew from the beginning that he was innocent. He didn't even have a ticket, much less something else [major crimes]", he said.
His Father, Mr Donato Contreras, said that although he often visited his son in prison, he is now much happier to see him free. "thanks to everyone who helped us and I don't have how to pay them that", he said. "of all my children I think this is the most good of all".When asked if he felt any grudge, Contreras denied his head: " No, none. There's no reason."
For Now, he said, he was waiting for two things: Good Mexican food and April 11. is a Jehovah's witness, and that is the day that his name will remember the anniversary of Jesus's death.
His faith, he said, had prevented him from the spiral of depression.

Carol Ann Torres reacted to Bible Speaks in “The Meek Shall Inherit the Earth”—How? ???
“The Meek Shall Inherit the Earth”—How?
???
“YOU are probably familiar with Jesus’ heartwarming words that ‘themeek shall inherit the earth.’ But in view of all that people are doing to one another and to the earth, what do you think there will be left for the meek to inherit?”—Matthew 5:5; Psalm 37:11; King James Version.
???
God’s Eternal Purpose for the Earth
Jehovah God created the earth for a specific purpose. “This is what Jehovah has said, the Creator of the heavens, He the true God, the Former of the earth and the Maker of it, He the One who firmly established it, who did not create it simply for nothing, who formed it even to be inhabited: ‘I am Jehovah, and there is no one else.’” (Isaiah 45:18) Thus, the earth was created specifically for human habitation. Furthermore, it is God’s purpose for the earth to be an eternal home for mankind. “He has founded the earth upon its established places; it will not be made to totter to time indefinite, or forever.”—Psalm 104:5; 119:90.
???
Who will be in line to enjoy that wonderful inheritance? Consider Jesus’ words: “Happy are the mild-tempered ones, since they willinherit the earth.” (Matthew 5:5) What does it mean to be mild-tempered, or meek? Dictionaries generally define “meek,” or “mild,” as gentle, moderate, submissive, quiet, even timid. However, theoriginal Greek word used means much more. “There is gentleness” in that word, observes William Barclay’s New Testament Wordbook, “but behind the gentleness there is the strength of steel.” It denotes a mental disposition that enables a person to endure injury without resentment or thought of retaliation, all as a result of having a good relationship with God, and that relationship becomes a source of strength for him.—Isaiah 12:2; Philippians 4:13.
???
One who is meek humbly accepts God’s standards in all aspects of his personal life; he does not insist on going by his own views or by other people’s opinions. He is also teachable, willing to be taught by Jehovah. The psalmist David wrote: “[Jehovah] will cause the meek ones to walk in his judicial decision, and he will teach the meek ones his way.”—Psalm 25:9; Proverbs 3:5, 6.
???
Will you be among “the meek” who will inherit the earth? By getting to know Jehovah and his will through a diligent study of his Word and by putting what you learn into practice, you too can look forward to inheriting an earthly paradise and living forever in it.—John 17:3.

Carol Ann Torres reacted to Bible Speaks in "There are seven kings: five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet arrived." ???
"There are seven kings: five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet arrived."— (Rev. 17:10)
???
The Wild Beasts of Daniel and of Revelation. That the beasts described in these books represent political kingdoms or governments, exercising rulership and authority, is clearly stated. (Da 7:6, 12, 23; 8:20-22; Re 16:10; 17:3, 9-12) A consideration of the Biblical passages reveals that, while these political ‘wild beasts’ vary in symbolic form, yet all have certain characteristics in common. All are shown as standing in opposition to God’s rule by the Messianic Kingdom over mankind. They are also depicted as in opposition to God’s “holy ones,” his covenant people, first the Jewish nation, then the Christian congregation. Those specifically named (Medo-Persia and Greece) were major world powers, and the great size attributed to the others or the description of their actions indicates that these too were not minor kingdoms. (It may be noted that subordinate kingdoms are symbolized by horns in some cases.) All the beasts are represented as very aggressive, seeking the dominant position over the nations or peoples within the reach of their power.—Compare Da 7:17, 18, 21; 8:9-11, 23, 24; Re 13:4-7, 15; 17:12-14.
???
Many commentators endeavor to limit the fulfillment of the visions of the beasts in the book of Daniel so that it does not extend beyond the time when Jesus Christ was on the earth, at which time the Roman Empire was the dominant power. The prophecies themselves, however, make plain that they extend beyond that time. The final forms of the beasts are shown as reaching down to the ‘arrival of the definite time for God’s holy ones to take possession of the kingdom’ in “the appointed time of the end.” Then the Messiah destroys such beastly opposition for all time. (Da 7:21-27; 8:19-25; compare also Re 17:13, 14; 19:19, 20.)
???
It may be noted that Christ Jesus expressly foretold that opposition to the Messianic Kingdom would continue into the time of the end, so that his disciples then preaching that Kingdom would be “objects of hatred by all the nations.” (Mt 24:3, 9-14) This obviously does not allow for any nation, particularly world powers, to be excluded from possible identification with the final forms or expressions of the symbolic wild beasts.
???
The scarlet-colored wild beast. At Revelation 17 the apostle records his vision of a scarlet-colored beast with seven heads and ten horns, mounted by the symbolic woman “Babylon the Great.” This beast thus resembles, or is in the image of, the first beast of Revelation 13 but is distinct because of its scarlet color and the fact that no crowns are seen on its ten horns. Beholding the beast, John is told that five of the seven kings represented by the seven heads had already fallen, while one existed at that time, and the seventh was yet to come. The scarlet-colored beast itself is an eighth king but springs from or is a product of the previous seven. The “ten kings” represented by the ten horns exist and exercise authority in association with the scarlet beast for a short time. Warring against the Lamb, Jesus Christ, and those with him, they go down in defeat.—Re 17:3-5, 9-14.
