This week's midweek meeting part in 2 Chronicles 20,21 is about having faith in Jehovah's saving power in face of enemies. The spirit of Jehovah came upon Ja·ha·ziʹel, to proclaim to Jehoshaphat and the people that Jehovah would save them. The workbook says: "When Gog attacks Jehovah’s people...

Yes, it's a brilliant point. I commented on that in the meeting, that giving undue honour to humans, organizations, and symbols is idolatry. It seems to go overlooked though. This week's bible reading was good too. King Asa instead of turning to Jehovah, had sought help from the nations, and...

There has been so much emphasis recently on fully trusting the governing body. Seems like rain's coming soon.

I think he meant Deut - Deuteronomy

Yes good points. There does seem to be a difference alluded to between Michael already standing in behalf of his people and when he stands up/takes action. Similar to Jesus saying he'd be with his disciples all the days until the conclusion of the system of things and his parousia. In paragraph...

Strange they would do that. Here is the link to it online https://www.jw.org/finder?srcid=jwlshare&wtlocale=E&prefer=lang&docid=1200002739

Literature wise, the insight on the scriptures book is an excellent study tool. The topic on life is an excellent one to first have a look at in my opinion. Not sure how much help I would be but I'd be happy to speak with you if you would like.

I've been out with the brothers and sisters doing ministry. The elders don't mind me doing ministry with them despite what I told them about the GB being apostate. Whether or not I work with them, I am one of Jehovah's witnesses with my beliefs, there is no getting away from being linked with...

Wow. Finally that scripture makes sense to me, thanks so much for sharing👍. It had confused me for a while, I always thought the 3rd verse didn't make sense with verse 4.

It depends on how religious they are. As a sports teacher you shouldn't have much of a problem. If JWs judge you for your conscience decision then they are at fault not you, and there's no controlling that. Thinking about it another way, you are likely the only one there with the wonderful...

I attended a catholic school for a few years despite my mum being a baptized witness, simply because it was the local school. They handed out a religious paper booklet every few months or so for us to have a look at, I don't recall anything other than that religious wise.

I'm sorry to hear it Robert, you must be in a lot of pain. Recover soon.

I have had 2 meetings now with the elders. The reason for my first meeting was that I told a brother about Robert's website. I told the elders that the governing body have committed apostasy, that judgment with the house of God couldn't have started yet as is claimed; that that is the start of...

I love cooking. I'm more of a throw stuff together type of gal though. I love experimenting with different spices and herbs. It's satisfying to find joy in something you've made. It is the gift of God. Recently, I've been researching into aromatherapy which is so incredibly awe-inspiring. An...

I thought this exact thing a few weeks back. What I thought were stars at first were then moving abnormally. I put it down to them actually being satellites but I'm not sure. Really bizarre, interesting you mention it.

That is beautiful, thank you for sharing. You as I've seen with many others here have a sincere desire to do what is right and good because that is the best way to live now no matter what happens to us. I have come to really appreciate of ones this past year that the most important thing is not...

Hi Citrine, it's so encouraging to hear about you and your husband. Thank you to all the elders out there standing up courageously for what's right. "Listen to me, you who know righteousness, The people with my law in their heart. Do not be afraid of the taunts of mortal men, And do not be...

Similar at mine, they are very short on literature, particularly the enjoy life forever brochures. I went out house to house the other day and I really enjoyed it, many were very receptive. It really brought me a lot of joy. I've only recently started going in person for the meetings, no mask...

I went in-person yesterday for a meeting part, I was quite stressed about going in for the first time and without a mask but it went quite well. I'm glad that I went in. It was encouraging, but I wasn't feeling up to properly conversing with anyone.

It is, hard to believe. It was showing them speaking with each other at the dinner table in Paradise, discussing the tribulation they faced, mentioning the covid pandemic and being imprisoned. It mentioned an example about a brother being glad he made peace with his brother before "the world...
