Unfortunately (or fortunately) I suffer from Splanephobia. It’s impossible for me to listen to this guy. So if anyone can summarize the broadcast in order to help me avoid trauma, it would be appreciated

How do you find out if anyone in your congregation or in a wider field, maybe your circuit, is PIMO? Short of asking straight out I haven't been able to come up with a relatively "safe" way of finding out. If I bring up certain "controversial" topics in conversation that might lead onto seeing...

The article in the April 2024 WT Never Leave the Spiritual Paradise Para 5 says Jehovah abundantly satisfies the spiritual needs of his worshippers. We have his holy spirit, his written Word, and ample spiritual food so that we can “eat, . . . drink, . . . [and] rejoice.” (Compare Revelation...

I was researching about Manna recently just out of interest and I came across this book which I have never heard of before. I don't put much credence by it of course but has anyone read it? The Wikipedia page gives a summary of it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Manna_Machine Food made from...

I just listened to the talk at the beginning by Bro Herd. Just a few points I noted. His theme: Jehovah loves you despite appearances or imperfections. He asks, Why address this topic? There is a percentage of Jehovah’s faithful servants that wonder if Jehovah can really love them. He proceeds...

Is it wrong to pray to be healed? When Jesus healed the Leper he said "I want to" and the leper was healed. This perfectly reflects Jehovah's feeling towards humans. I know it's not Jehovah's time to heal en-masse. That is what the Kingdom is for. But if a person is so worn down by their...

Euclid telescope prepares for voyage to create largest 3D map of the cosmos The six-year mission aims to map precisely how dark matter clumps around galaxies and lays the foundations for the cosmic web of matter that stretches through the universe. Launches from Cape Canaveral in Florida on...

JW.org What’s new section June 6 Global News https://www.jw.org/en/news/region/global/Ramapo-Site-Preparations-Continue/ Is this all really necessary? I wonder how much money is used per day to fund this project. A short poem on this: Now you know where donations go They go to build...

The British Prime Minister said that the G7 summit was of historic significance. To be honest I really don’t know what went on there so why would he say that? Can we see any move toward “ Peace and Security” from what went on, or is the summit just to be dismissed as contributing to global...

Do you think there is any connection between having the mark of the beast and the future ramifications of artificial intelligence? https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/from-fiction-fact-real-world-skynet-rise-ai-joshua-crumbaugh

I post this just for information I have no particular comment on the ruling, just thought it might be of interest

And look! a great earthquake had taken place, for Jehovah’s angel had descended from heaven and had come and rolled away the stone, and he was sitting on it. 3 His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing was as white as snow. Who was the Angel that rolled the stone away? This cannot...

Tragedy as Welsh First Minister Mark Drakeford's wife Clare dies 'suddenly' aged 66: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-wales-64439545 Of course, we cannot say for sure, and I am not suggesting that this is the case, but I wonder if the vaccine was a contributory factor. They had been married about...

Thought this might be interesting. It comes from the "BULLETIN" which came before the Kingdom Ministry. I am not sure what year but possibly around 1930. If we had any doubt that the society purposely sets out to deceive or discombobulate people, these instructions on how to present (sell)...

And the word of Jehovah again came to me, saying: 16 “Son of man, in a single blow I am about to take away your dear one from you. You should not mourn; nor should you weep or shed tears. 17 Groan in silence, and do not observe mourning rites for the dead. Bind on your turban and put on your...

This is a somewhat controversial passage in scripture. As Jesus was dying on the stake one of the criminals with him repented and Jesus said, as recorded in Luke 23:43 "Truly I tell you today you will be with me in Paradise.” Notice that in the above sentence there is no comma. The comma...

Bro Herd said in his talk " I was given a thorn in the flesh" that a man fell into a pile of thorns and over the next six years both he and doctors picked barbs from his body totalling 32,131 thorns, but he presented no corroborating evidence for this story. (However, I did find this story in...

I watched the GB update No 7 that was put up recently hosted by Bro Lett. Here is a brief summary of the broadcast. Wearing masks are a personal decision. Return to pre-pandemic arrangements from Jan 2023 as much as possible. In person special conventions in 2024. Many have lost loved ones to...

Naturally as my wife passed away recently, I am very interested in the resurrection and what is going to happen as regards marriage. We look forward to seeing our dead loved ones, but it seems kind of strange to think that my wife is now and will be no longer be my wife ever. The WT of 1961...
