    A Way of Life!
    ???????
    True worshippers of the first century took up “The Way,” a term used at Acts 9:2 to refer to the new life course that early Christians followed. Today, those who want to experience joy in worshipping God must do the same. They need to allow Bible truths to affect their thinking and their daily conduct.
    ???????
    The apostle Paul thus urged people of Ephesus: “Put away the old personality which conforms to your former course of conduct.” Yet, more is needed, as Paul continued: “Put on the new personality which was created according to God’s will in true righteousness and loyalty.”—Ephesians 4:22-24.
    ???????
    As we respond to that counsel, making changes in our life in harmony with God’s will, we gain access to a source of great satisfaction and joy. What is that? Paul wrote to Christians in Colossae that they needed to make adjustments in their lives “in order to walk worthily of Jehovah to the end of fully pleasing him.” (Colossians 1:10) Surely, knowing that the true God is pleased with our life is reason for joy! Furthermore, God makes it possible to please him “fully.” How so? Through forgiveness.
    ???????
    Each of us sins; each of us needs to receive God’s forgiveness. “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners,” stated Paul, as recorded at 1 Timothy 1:15. When Jesus sacrificed his life for us, he made it possible for us to receive forgiveness of our sins. Hence, a true worshipper feels relief, for a heavy load of guilt is lifted from his heart. He can have a clean conscience and can rejoice in the confidence that as long as he earnestly does God’s will, he will have forgiveness of his sins. -

    The card contains a code that leads to the video Why Study the Bible? and an invitation to request more information or a Bible study. Some people are not inclined to accept literature but are willing to visit our website. Do not hesitate to give them a contact card. However, do not leave contact cards with those who show no interest.
    ?
    As you go about your daily activities, you could generate someone’s interest simply by saying: “I have something I would like to give you. This card directs you to a website that has free information and videos on a variety of subjects.” (John 4:7) Because the contact cards are small, you can likely keep a few with you to share with others at every opportunity.

    Refrain from grieving the Holy Spirit!

    "He who is sowing with a view to the spirit will reap everlasting life from the spirit." (Gal. 6:8) 
    By means of his holy spirit, God furthers the love, joy, and unity of his people. (Ps. 133: 1-3) 
    Therefore, we should refrain from grieving the spirit because of engaging in harmful gossip or by saying things that would undermine respect for those who are spirit-appointed shepherds.
    (Acts 20:28; Jude Instead, we ought to promote unity and respect for one another in the congregation. Surely, we should not encourage cliques by forming exclusive groups among God’s people. Paul wrote: “I exhort you, brothers, . . . that you should all speak in agreement, and that there should not be divisions among you, but that you may be fitly united in the same mind and in the same line of thought.” (1 Cor. 1:10) 
    Jehovah is willing and able to help us avoid grieving his spirit. Let us continue to pray for holy spirit and be determined not to grieve it. - Bible Speaks -

    ???? ? ? ???????
    In the illustration of the workers in the vineyard, Jesus describes a householder who pays the same amount of money to all his workers, whether they worked the whole day or just one hour. (Matt. 20:8-16) 
    Does that seem fair? Actually, the householder treated all the workers as those having a right to a living. Even though the situation could be viewed as abuyer’s market, with no shortage of workers, he did not take advantage of them by offering less than what was fair. 
    All his workers returned home with enough to feed their families. Taking these points into consideration may change our view of his actions. His decision was a loving one and not an arbitrary abuse of authority. 
    What lesson can we learn? That considering just some of the facts can cause us to jump to the wrong conclusion. Indeed, this parable highlights the superiority of GodÂ’s righteousness, which is not based on legal regulations and human merit alone. - Bible Speaks

    "The minding of the flesh means death, but the minding of the spirit means life and peace."—Rom. 8:6
    How can we pursue “the minding of the spirit”? By regularly setting our minds on the things of the spirit and allowing a spiritual inclination and attitude to develop in us. As we do this, we have a mind-set that is “under subjection to the law of God” and is “in harmony with” his thoughts. (Rom. 8:7, 
    When we are faced with a temptation, we will be moved to make the correct choice—one that is in accord with the spirit. Therefore, it is vital to set our minds on the things of the spirit. We do this by ‘bracing up our minds for activity,’ building our life around a spiritual routine that includes regular prayer, Bible reading and study, meeting attendance, and the Christian ministry. (1 Pet. 1:13) 
    Rather than allowing the things of the flesh to distract us, let us set our minds on the things of the spirit. Doing so will bring us blessings, for the minding of the spirit means life and peace.—Gal. 6:7, 8. - Bible Speaks

    WHAT IS GENTLENESS? – ?????
    A mildness of disposition or manner, thus the opposite of roughness or harshness. Gentleness is closely related to humility and meekness.Gentleness is a requisite for a servant of God, particularly one in a responsible position of oversight.
    ?????
    The apostle Paul stated that “a slave of the Lord does not need to fight, but needs to be gentle [Gr., e?pi·on] toward all.” The gentle person is not loud, noisy, or immoderate. Moses, the man of the true God, though not in every instance manifesting the proper disposition, “was by far the meekest of all the men who were upon the surface of the ground.” His speech on one occasion was said to be like “gentle rains upon grass.”
    ?????
    At 1 Thessalonians 2:7 Paul described himself and his companions as becoming “gentle in the midst of you [the Thessalonians], as when a nursing mother cherishes her own children.” This was because they had real love for those as well as concern for their spiritual growth.
    ?????
    Not Weakness. Gentleness does not denote weakness. It requires strength of disposition to be gentle with others and to pacify them or to spare their feelings, especially when one is under provocation.
    ?????
    At 2 Samuel 18:5 David, a man of war, because of fatherly love, commanded Joab to deal gently with his rebellious son Absalom. The Hebrew word here (?at) has reference to a going softly or a gentle motion.
    ?????
    The apostle Paul, although gentle, was not a weakling, as testified to by his ability to speak very strongly when the need arose, for example, when he wrote his first and second letters to the Christian congregation in Corinth.
    ?????
    A Unifying Force.
    It is pleasant and conducive to peace when one speaks and acts with gentleness. Such a person is approachable, not forbidding, and his manner tends toward the spiritual upbuilding of others. Harshness, roughness, boisterousness, and vulgarity are divisive and drive others away .  But gentlenessattracts and unifies.
    ?????
    Jehovah is spoken of as collecting together his lambs and as carrying them in his bosom (referring to the voluminous folds of the upper part of the garment, in which lambs were sometimes carried by shepherds). -

    Bible Speaks reacted to Bible Speaks in How Much Wine ? is Too Much?   
    Do not be getting drunk with wine, in which there is debauchery, but keep getting filled with spirit.—Eph. 5:18. - ???
    Misuse of alcohol can lead to other serious sins. Thus, the apostle Paul wrote the words found in today’s text. He also admonished the aged women in the congregation not to be “enslaved to a lot of wine.” (Titus 2:3) 
    If you choose to drink alcoholic beverages, you would do well to ask yourself: ‘Do I share Jesus’ attitude toward heavy drinking? (Luke 21:34) 
    If I need to counsel others on this matter, do I have freeness of speech? Do I drink to escape worries or to ease stress? How much alcohol do I consume each week? How do I react when someone implies that I might be drinking too much? 
    Do I become defensive or even resentful?Â’ Allowing ourselves to become enslaved to a lot of wine can affect our ability to reason things out properly and to make wise decisions. Followers of Christ strive to safeguard their thinking ability.
    (Proverbs 3:21-22) “My son, may they not get away from your eyes. Safeguard practical wisdom and thinking ability, 22 and they will prove to be life to your soul and charm to your throat." - Bible Speaks

    Walk that path to integrity, it is lighted up for you to receive Blessings! 
    ?????????
    "Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in my integrity; In Jehovah I have trusted without wavering."
    (Ps 26:1) 
    What does integrity keeping include in the case of imperfect humans?
    Since all men are imperfect and unable to measure up perfectly to God’s standards, it is evident that their integrity does not mean perfection of action or of speech. Rather, the Scriptures show it means wholeness or completeness of heart devotion. David, through weakness, committed several serious wrongs, but he, nevertheless, ‘walked with integrity of heart’ (1Ki 9:4), for he accepted reproof and corrected his way. He thereby proved that his heart still retained genuine love for Jehovah God. (Ps 26:1-3, 6, 8, 11)
    As David later told his son Solomon: “Know the God of your father and serve him with a complete heart and with a delightful soul; for all hearts Jehovah is searching, and every inclination of the thoughts he is discerning.” Solomon’s heart, however, did not “prove to be complete with Jehovah his God like the heart of David his father.”—1Ch 28:9; 1Ki 11:4.
    Integrity is therefore not restricted to any one aspect of human conduct; it does not apply just to matters obviously “religious.” For God’s servant it is a way of life in which the individual ‘walks,’ constantly searching to know Jehovah’s will. (Ps 119:1-3)
    David shepherded the nation of Israel “according to the integrity of his heart,” both in matters directly relating to Jehovah’s worship and in his conduct of governmental affairs. He also desired that those around him and those acting as his ministers likewise be persons of integrity, “walking in a faultless way.” (Ps 78:72; 101:2-7) One ‘proves himself faultless’ before God over a period of time, as did Noah, Abraham, and others.—Ge 6:9; 17:1; 2Sa 22:24.
    Integrity requires uncompromising loyalty to God and adherence to righteousness, not merely under favorable conditions or circumstances, but under all conditions and at all times. After stressing that only the integrity-keeper, “speaking the truth in his heart,” is acceptable to Jehovah, the psalmist says of such a one that “he has sworn to what is bad for himself, and yet he does not alter,” that is, even if something he has solemnly agreed to turns out to be apparently against his personal interests, he still stays true to his agreement. (Ps 15:1-5; contrast Ro 1:31; 1Ti 1:10.) Integrity, then, is most evident when the individual’s devotion is under test and he is pressured to abandon his righteous course. Though made a laughingstock by opposers (Job 12:4; compare Jer 20:7) or made the object of their bitter speech (Ps 64:3, 4), hatred, and violent persecution (Pr 29:10; Am 5:10), whether in sickness or in distressful adversity, a person must ‘hold fast his integrity’ as did Job, no matter what the cost.—Job 2:3.
    Such an integrity-keeping course is possible, not by the individual’s personal moral strength, but only through deep faith and trust in Jehovah and His saving power. (Ps 25:21) God’s promise is that he will be a “shield” and “stronghold,” guarding the way of those walking in integrity. (Pr 2:6-8; 10:29; Ps 41:12) Their constant concern for gaining Jehovah’s approval brings stability to their lives, enabling them to follow a straight course to their goal. (Ps 26:1-3; Pr 11:5; 28:18)
    Though, as Job perplexedly observed, the blameless may suffer because of the rule of the wicked and may die along with the wicked, Jehovah assures that he is aware of the life of the faultless person and guarantees that such a personÂ’s inheritance will continue, his future will be peaceful, and he will come into the possession of good. (Job 9:20-22; Ps 37:18, 19, 37; 84:11; Pr 28:10)
    As in JobÂ’s case, it is being a man of integrity, rather than oneÂ’s wealth, that makes one a person of genuine worth, meriting respect. (Pr 19:1; 28:6) Children privileged to have such a person for a parent are to be counted happy (Pr 20:7), receiving a splendid legacy in their fatherÂ’s life example, enjoying a share in his good name and the respect he gained.

    Hezekiah was greatly distressed by the Assyrian threat recorded in the letters sent him but he continued to trust in Jehovah and appealed to him at the temple, also sending some of the head ones of the people to the prophet Isaiah. IsaiahÂ’s reply, from Jehovah, was that Sennacherib would hear a report and would return to his own land, where eventually he would be slain. (2Ki 19:1-7; Isa 37:1-7)
    During the night Jehovah sent his angel, who destroyed 185,000 of the cream of Sennacherib’s troops, “every valiant, mighty man and leader and chief in the camp of the king of Assyria, so that he went back with shame of face to his own land.”

    You wake up to get ready for work or school and you take a deep breath. Another long day lies ahead, another day of enduring in this system. Your routine stays the same: You rarely miss a meeting and you go out on the ministry constantly. You do everything you can for Jehovah and nothing distracts you from that. But the trials continue to pile up. Temptations are everywhere and the challenges of work or school are taxing on your mind and body. But you continue to rely on Jehovah everyday of your life.
    Time passes and things just keep getting harder and harder. Health problems continue to afflict us, tragic events happen unexpectedly. And if that's not painful enough, the death of a loved one breaks our heart and shatters it to pieces.
    Sometimes it seems like there is no way out. Some days are just too much to bear. You give way to tears and you cry to Jehovah in silence some nights. But you refuse to give up!
    You are convinced that nothing can separate us from God's love. More time passes and you keep enduring every day, holding steadfast in the truth. You rely on Jehovah's guidance more than ever and you give it your all to praise Him publicly.
    Then finally one day.. After coming home from work or school, your phone beeps and you receive the most astonishing text message of your life: "URGENT. Check the news!!!" Your heart starts beating a little faster.
    You rush to find the remote. Could this be it? Could this be the moment that we have all been waiting for? With hands shaking and palms sweating you turn on the television and in big bold letters you see this plastered across the screen: 
    BREAKING NEWS ALERT: WORLD PEACE DECLARED. 
    Jehovah day is about to begin!!! With tears of relief streaming down your face, you pray to Jehovah and you ask him for strength and guidance to help you deal with the earthshaking events that are about to take place worldwide. Aren't you glad you stayed spiritually alert all this time? So keep in expectation, we are on the verge of witnessing the most earth shattering events of our lives!

    It is written: “the Abrahamic covenant went into effect in 1943 B.C.E., when 75-year-old Abraham left Haran and crossed the Euphrates River.”
    However, Abraham had already left his home in Ur out of obedience to Jehovah. Why did it not start at that time? The Bible tells us Abraham postponed the arduous trip out of consideration for his father’s poor health and remain in Haran until his father’s death. 
    Many Christians today likewise have the privilege of caring for aging or sick parents, some even having to make an adjustment in order to do so.
    When that is necessary, such ones can be assured that their loving sacrifices are “acceptable in God’s sight.”—1 Timothy 5:4. Lev. 19:32. -

    Hezekiah was greatly distressed by the Assyrian threat recorded in the letters sent him but he continued to trust in Jehovah and appealed to him at the temple, also sending some of the head ones of the people to the prophet Isaiah. IsaiahÂ’s reply, from Jehovah, was that Sennacherib would hear a report and would return to his own land, where eventually he would be slain. (2Ki 19:1-7; Isa 37:1-7)
    During the night Jehovah sent his angel, who destroyed 185,000 of the cream of Sennacherib’s troops, “every valiant, mighty man and leader and chief in the camp of the king of Assyria, so that he went back with shame of face to his own land.”

    Queen Esther...it did say "Infested " water....I know our brothers walk thru water, deep water to reach people but I doubt they do it in infested water without some protection. And JTR our skin does not prevent us from getting diseases from infested water. So it is a personal choice. I do admire and respect those who go above and beyond for our Wonderful God Jehovah.

    Bible Speaks reacted to Bible Speaks in Do You Care For Elderly Parents? Note How Abraham Cared For His Father ~   
    It is written: “the Abrahamic covenant went into effect in 1943 B.C.E., when 75-year-old Abraham left Haran and crossed the Euphrates River.”
    However, Abraham had already left his home in Ur out of obedience to Jehovah. Why did it not start at that time? The Bible tells us Abraham postponed the arduous trip out of consideration for his father’s poor health and remain in Haran until his father’s death.
