  1. Past hour
  2. Please don’t post any personal information regarding any of the actors…. For the film crew or actors… need I say more …
  3. Today
  4. Lol, why would they do that... people would be told about the concept of a movie and of acting, right?
  5. Everyone I know is having difficulty understanding it, anyway.
  6. Ponderation is certainly something to ponder and understand especially the complexities of the brain which, like land is a very precious commodity for everyone.
  7. FWIW more background about the chess game behind it: https://www.thenation.com/article/world/ceuta-spain-morocco-border-crisis-western-sahara-geopolitics/
  8. Brother Chew,

    Have you a transcript of the video “Our History in Motion—The Governing Body Preserves Unity—Part 1”?

    thanks

  9. I imagine that most of us will never see that brother walking down the street - unless we live in his neighborhood. Anyone who knew Jesus lived in Israel, right? Also- I believe that most people know that actors are not the people they portray. If not, it would be clearly explained. Plus - what are the chances Aussie Jesus looks identical to the real Jesus beyond being a human adult male? I mean, if Aussie Jesus must be anointed, so be it. But I don't imagine any trouble for him whatsoever if he is not. Certainly not from the fainting resurrected public. Frankly, that brother probably has more aggravation now, in current life, once someone gets wind of who (and where) he is.
  10. True, but it would still be a major burden. Jesus isn't just another character, he's the Son of God. Could you imagine this poor brother walking through a street and some newly resurrected ones bow down to him and weep? That could be a major stumbling block, especially because it would persist for centuries. I really hope he's anointed; then it wouldn't matter if people thought he was Jesus, he would be just as far away as the real one.
  11. To be fair, to anyone who died before motion pictures, seeing *anyone* in any sort of film will be a challenge. But I think most will have been familiar with the concept of characters acting a part on a stage; plays and the like are very old entertainment. Once they get over the "magic of cinema", our dramas might not be too difficult to grasp.
  12. Okay, so then - are their beards real or enhanced? Same question about their hair- all of it is thick and luxurious. 😊
  13. If I were to meet him in person dressed as Jesus, I think I would look him in the eyes and I would say: "Remember me when you get into your Kingdom." 😄
  14. New Language: Wichi (Bermejo) Not 100% sure: it's an indigenous language of Argentina.
  15. I think I found a glitch in NWS. My NWS profile gives me just View Only for almost everything in the program, I can't even view the Publisher Records for anyone not in my group, which is really strange since I can view everyone's record on NWP. Anyway, I was looking at my own Publisher Record and noticed that I could add data to Sept 2026. Just that month. I checked the Publisher Records for a few in my group and I can edit their Sept 2026 even though I am in View Only mode. Strange.
  16. I say it would be on October 2nd, 10 days before the 15min LOCAL NEEDS. It would be available for the Annual meeting but no need to train to sing it, they could do like we do during Summer convention back in the day... If it was consistent with the previous year, we would get Year text (year song?) + 2027 convention theme + more "international songs" + update on all the brothers and sisters in prison in the world
  17. I know we aren't supposed to... but if I was to meet him in person in his Jesus costume, the 6'3 man I am may cry like a baby I'd rather meet him in a normal meeting with the suit and necktie...
  18. 2026 Governing Body Update #6 What do you think we'll see in Update #6? Could it include: - the theme for the 2027 Regional Conventions? - the locations of the 2027 International Conventions? - a new song? - the 2027 yeartext? When will it be released? This year's updates have generally been released 6 to 7 weeks apart. Based on that pattern, one possibility is September 18, if the interval remains around 7 weeks. However, I think September 25 is a stronger possibility for two reasons: - In 2026, the updates have typically been released 2 to 3 weeks before they are used for the Local Needs part of the midweek meeting. Since there are no Local Needs scheduled for September and the next one is expected in October, September 25 seems to fit that pattern better. - It would also be one week before the Annual Meeting. If Update #6 includes a new song, this would give those attending the Annual Meeting time to learn it. A release on October 2 would leave much less time. For comparison, in 2025, 2025 Governing Body Update #6 was released on September 26, exactly one week before the Annual Meeting on October 4. My prediction: - September 18 or September 25, with September 25 being my strongest guess. What's your prediction?
  19. Yesterday
  20. Thank you Jehovah for feeding me spiritually, protecting my family, and maintaining peace.
  21. Not the Spanish mainland was involved, but a Spanish city named Ceuta which is located in Africa next to Morocco. All those thousands just swam a few hundred meters around the fence into Ceuta. Everyday there are people who cross the border illegally by land and are returned to Morocco immediately. However, a recent ruling by the Spanish Supreme Court held that people who arrive by swimming cannot be returned immediately because there is no clearly defined demarcation of the border at sea. The Moroccan authorities took advantage of this ruling and encouraged many young people to swim to Spain. Around 60,000 people flooded a city with a population of about 80,000, placing enormous strain on its infrastructure. Most eventually returned after realizing they had been misled and that they would not be welcomed with open arms. Most analysts believe Morocco was testing Spain's response with a view to the future.
  22. It’s a lovely talk by Br. Walls. Families are indeed under attack from Satan. Very timely too.
  23. August Broadcast is now available on JW.org under What’s New
  24. That would be ideal. It would be a challenge for anyone to be the visual face of Jesus as billions get resurrected and watch the dramas.
  25. Accepted is the fact that, once in a while, two people post at almost the same time, and we end up with overlapping posts each with a different last word for ponderation.

    • Modern references to creative days:
       
      *** w15 6/1 p. 5 How Science Affects Your Life ***
      The Bible fixes no duration for the six creative “days.” Instead, it opens the door for modern scientists to study them and assign accurate time spans to them. We know that the creative “days” were much longer than 24-hour days.
       
      *** g21 No. 3 p. 12 What the Bible Tells Us ***
      So each of the six creative “days” during which God prepared the earth for life and created life on it could represent extremely long periods of time.
       
      *** g 1/14 p. 12 Creation ***
      WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS God created the universe, including the earth, in the indefinite past—“in the beginning,” as Genesis 1:1 says. Modern science agrees that the universe had a beginning. A recent scientific model suggests it to be almost 14 billion years old.
       
      *** lc pp. 26 Science and the Genesis Account ***
      A careful consideration of the Genesis account reveals that events starting during one “day” continued into one or more of the following “days.”
