    Protect Yourself From Apostasy https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&docid=202023178&srctype=wol&srcid=share&par=2

    I’ve come up against apostates both on carts and house to house. Both times I’ve politely stopped the conversation and walked away. I can’t remember exactly what I said as it was a few years ago but when the person answered the door and started ranting how the org covers up child abuse I said something like “I’m not here to discuss that today, if you have genuine questions about that you can find information on our website” and I just walked away

    The Bible says we don't talk with apostates, because they are very dangerous for our spirituality and want to cause us harm (2 John 9-11). So if you meet an apostate at the door or anywhere, what do you think the right reaction would be? This applies to apostates, that is, former Witnesses who now try to stray others. It's different if you meet a person in service who is not a former Witness and simply has heard some lies about Witnesses. That person maybe can be helped to find the truth. That is not an apostate. Even then, we would rather avoid listening to rumors about anyone.

    The question you raised is about apostates we may meet in the preaching work. However, the comment is actually about a woman who was spreading false information about Jehovah’s Witnesses. Is the woman actually an apostate, or is she just repeating what she has heard from others?

    One match can burn a entire forest, but it takes one tree to make 1,000 matches so all i ask of you is to get me a burger in New York city and make it with a coke

    "The Canadian city located directly south of Detroit, Michigan, is Windsor, Ontario. Because of the unique southward curve of the Detroit River, Windsor lies due south of Detroit, making it one of the only places in the United States where you travel south to enter Canada." Wow, you can learn something new everyday if you aren't careful...

    Close but no guarantee. To get 8 updates per year they have to be produced about every 6 weeks. They can be off a week either way.
  23. Ostria
    If you drive south of Detroit, Michigan you end up in Canada
  24. Indapipe
    Yes, we have. I was simply rephrasing the statement that @Regular did not understand.

    We've already seen that one at our mid week meeting.

    That's awesome that it's going to motivate you. That's actually my main purpose of why I really wanted to make it was that I wanted there never to be a time when I felt like there was no point doing in-depth research. Just cuz I was on the wrong device. Also, the study stats motivates me to see that I'm slowing down on my daily study or the amount of time I spend reading allowing me to keep a check on my monthly and annual amount of time spent studying just to give myself a little bit of encouragement to keep increasing and buying out the opportune time. As for playlist, the only issue with playlist is that each individual file is saved and added to the backup, not the source location. So large playlist can eventually make a backup file huge. It can blow up massively. I'm not quite sure how to handle that yet.

    Here's a rephrasing: "This week's update should be the latest one hosted by Brother Herd." Or alternatively: "The update airing this week is expected to be the latest one with Brother Herd as host."

    A few weeks ago I was out in service and a elder had sent me and my friend to a home were a couple had moved in recently he knew because he had been working this neighborhood when the house was for sale. Anyways, the woman opened the door and started talking about false rumors about the organization the good thing was my friend backed me up but what do I do next time this happens

    I met an older sister at the regional in 2024. She was really nice. We talked the first two days together before being able to go in. I always wondered how she was doing. I found out yesterday she's friends with my bible teacher 😭🤣. Who knew at a convention that has people from three different states, i run into someone that's actually local to me. My bible teacher was gonna invite her to a game night yesterday but she was unable to go, she mentioned the sisters name and showed a picture and i nearly lost my mind (in a good way)

      jwhess posted a post in a topic,

      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.”

      I always thought that "branch representative" meant a member of the branch committee, but apparently it's not the case? So who can be a branch representative?

      Jehovah's name is explained to Moses as meaning "I shall prove to be, what I shall prove to be". This is a reference to the fact that, whatever is his will, he can make it a reality.
       
      If that is so, why did the Septuagint, which was translated by Jews who knew the language, translate it as egō eimi ho ōn? (“I am the One who is”), which seemingly refers to God's aseity rather than having to do with his purpose?

      We will have Int'l Convention in Kaohsiung, Taiwan this weekend.
      Many delegates have arrived, and started to enjoy activities, such as encouraging meetings, preaching w/ local cong., and visiting a museum/aquarium, etc. Tomorrow we will go down to Kaohsiung, and support volunteering such as bus captains, attendants. 
      over 2,000 delegates will join, total will be over 16,000, we're so exiting to see the worldwide brotherhood directly!
